Chapter 6 I Have Objections
Once it enters a state of combat readiness, orders take precedence, orders and prohibitions are followed, no discounts are given, and no questions are accepted. This is the basic rule of the Shuer team, or in other words, it is the basic rule that any mature shadow-chasing team must have.

The first rule of the Shadow Chaser is that you can speak freely during research and discussions, you can have fun during breaks, you must be professional enough when you start working, and you must be absolutely obedient in combat readiness.

No matter who they are, they will be treated equally and will never be allowed to violate this rule. If you have any opinions, you can raise them after the combat readiness is over.Once anyone violates this, it means that the trust between the team is completely broken. At the least, the team will fall apart, and at worst, it will suffer heavy losses or even be completely destroyed in Shadow Chaser.

Xiuer seldom puts the team into a state of combat readiness, and only gives this order when the problem is serious. Therefore, when hearing the state of combat readiness, everyone enters a state of high tension even if they don't understand the current danger.

"Moria, do your thing."

Lin Jing said nothing and nodded in response.

"Very well, everyone, take action, cover your body tightly, and try to ensure that not a centimeter of skin is directly exposed to the air, Mirity, especially you."

"Pay attention to calculating the time so that the effect of the breath-holding potion is not interrupted, and pay special attention to prevent habitual breathing. Remember, breathing is absolutely prohibited."

"Third point, check your luggage and confirm the number of breath-holding potions you carry."

"Start preparing now. Regarding the specific implementation of the above three points, you can ask questions. Note that it is a question, not a question."

Although the situation was urgent and even forced to enter a state of combat readiness, Shuer did not immediately order a response.

The second rule of Shadow Chaser is that when faced with a crisis, it is far more important to use your brain first than your body first.Just like the current situation, although the environment is full of malice, the enemy may find a weakness at any time and launch a fatal attack. However, the more this happens, the more cautious it is to deal with it. It is necessary to waste a little time to confirm the direction of action. Otherwise, there will be random collisions without a clear purpose. , can only get the worst results.

Everyone is an experienced mercenary. Even halflings who have never participated in shadow chasing have experienced many dangers in ordinary tasks. This fact is still very clear. Therefore, except for Saff and looking around who are still lying on the ground, they don’t know. What was Moria doing? The others immediately took action and started to deal with their own clothes. Of course they had questions, but they had nothing to do with the execution and could be put aside. No one would waste time asking questions now.

No, there are still.

"It's okay to stop breathing, but what about talking?"

Indeed, it is impossible not to exchange gases during pronunciation. The person who raised this question was naturally the dwarf Morbuck who never forgets to talk at all times.

"Will you die if you don't speak?" Shuer glared at him.

"I mean you."

"My body is highly resistant and I will speak less frequently. Don't worry about me."

He wrapped his head with gauze and tied the cuffs of his gloves and trouser legs tightly. He kept doing this on his hands and in his mouth.

"Keep doing what you have to do and don't stop, I say, you listen."

"Now the danger level has been raised to the highest level. I will explain the reason." Knowing that everyone is just acting according to the order and may not really understand the current danger, Shuer must take this opportunity to explain.

"Plants can be a very scary thing if they are aggressive, I learned that from Moria."

"If it's just an ordinary physical attack or magic attack, there's nothing terrible. For example, in our world of Parvatiga, there are several famous monster-type plants. The underground flower uses strong acid to digest prey, and the blood vine tree strangles it with its air roots. The prey is actually not very dangerous and is easy to guard against."

"The real dangers are some unknown plants."

"I once saw someone in the Mailin Forest. Shortly after passing through a mutant jasmine bush, someone suddenly suffocated and collapsed. If I hadn't been with him, he would have died. The reason was that his lungs and throat were seriously injured for no apparent reason. Swelling, leading to respiratory failure, while others in the group had no problems at all. Ultimately, the cause can only be attributed to the effect of mutant jasmine on certain individuals."

Wrapping herself up quickly, Shuuer began to toss Safu who was lying on the ground. The female swordsman kept staring at the draft paper and instruments spread out on the ground. Like a doll, she obediently allowed Shuuer to cover her with gloves. washcloth.

"Respiratory failure can be saved, but the cardiac paralysis suffered another time, there is no time to save, from birth to death, 1 minute."

"These are just examples. There are many other ways that plants can influence us. And I am only talking about Parvatiga. There are all kinds of strange creatures in the projection of other worlds. In addition, plants have self-awareness, so they must have more means and be more difficult to defend against. ."

"I know that these are just my speculations. You believe my speculations because you believe in me, not the conclusion itself. But I need you to believe it completely, so, Mirity, please be brief."

The sudden transfer of the right to speak made the Necromancer himself stunned for a moment.But after all, she was a teammate who had cooperated many times. Militi was only confused for a moment before she understood Shuer's intention.

"I understand. Your speculation is very credible. This place is indeed abnormal." The Necromancer sighed and shook his head. "Besides plants, there is no life here, not even insects."

"From a biological point of view, this is incredible. Unless the extremely harsh environment makes life impossible, there will always be bugs that can survive, but there are none here."

"To put it simply, reducing talking time means reducing risks." Shuer urged with a frown.

"In short, this is a dead land where only plants exist. Based on what Moria said just now, it can be preliminarily concluded that all the creatures here have been killed by these plants."

"They... do have ways to effectively kill us, and they kill us in batches. Well, as far as I can imagine now, there are already six or seven ways, and there should be more."

"That's enough." Soul interrupted Militty, "Did you all hear it? This is the conclusion of life science experts. They can exterminate animals in batches, including us, so everyone pays the highest attention to them."

"Of course, so far, it's still just a side verification, so Moria."

"It's confirmed." Moria, who had been looking around and doing nothing, suddenly burst into a ball of white light again.This time, before the white light dissipated, Xiuer pounced directly on him. When his vision returned, the half-human, half-deer forest elf had transformed into a complete human body, a wood elf with fair appearance and skin who traveled through the forest all year round. Almost exactly the same, with a cloak wrapped around her waist that Shuuer had given her in time.

"Ah, I forgot again." Lin Jing tilted her head and showed a confused expression. She put her hands into her cloak and began to work. She was probably putting on her lower clothes. Of course, she had not forgotten the business.

"I just tested it." Lin Jing said while busy, "Among the pollen floating in the air, the type with the highest concentration has been changing. It has been changed 23 times since entering the alert state."

"In addition to pollen, there are spores, eleven kinds of spores. The rest, there are six kinds of microscopic plant hairs, sixteen kinds of plant serous droplets that are difficult to detect, and there are some kinds that only exist in the smell. I don't know what they are at all. There are 34 kinds of things that don’t know where they are affected.”

"So, they've had more than 100 attack attempts in total, and we don't even feel it, let alone when they're going to succeed."

"That's enough." Shuer waved his hand, "Get ready quickly and stop talking."

"Bah bang bang," he used applause to pull everyone back from their wary looking around. Shuer raised his voice, "Now there is no need to doubt, let's confirm the response method. Although the situation is very troublesome, it is only a trouble, and it is not impossible to solve. .”

No matter how desperate they are, it is not the habit of this group of people to sit and wait for death. Moreover, it is far from the time of despair. The shadow chasers have seen too many strange worlds and have long been accustomed to this kind of encounter.

"Safu, did the result come out?"

"Not yet, give me a few more minutes."

"The speed is too slow. Speed ​​up a little. Once you have figured it out, tell me, don't check it again."

"Yes." Being scolded in front of everyone, the female swordsman seemed to have made some mistake. Her face was as red as fire, her teeth were biting her lips, and her eyes were filled with water, but it seemed that they were not tears of grievance.

"Take this opportunity to explain your next actions. I will confirm the position in a moment and everyone will move towards the target location at high speed."

"When moving, you must avoid direct contact between the skin and the outside world, especially where the skin is damaged. Does anyone have new wounds? In addition to wounds, there are mucous membranes, so keep your mouth shut while moving."

The person Xiu Er was staring at was naturally the dwarf Moback who would die if he didn't speak.

"I know." Mobak smiled and nodded.

"The basic purpose of the operation is to maintain full coverage of the breath-holding agent and absolutely prohibit breathing."

The function of breath-holding medicine is to release necessary gas nutrients in the body, replacing external breathing within 15 minutes, and is suitable for use underwater or in highly toxic gases.

"In other words, the breath-holding potion is an important item. It determines how likely we are to be killed. I can guarantee that if we don't use the breath-holding potion, they will find a way to kill us in up to 10 minutes. Never do that. contempt."

"So I just asked everyone to confirm the quantity of their potions. I want to know..." Shuer suddenly smiled bitterly, "How many breath-holding potions do everyone still have? I'm worried that some people don't have enough."

No one answered, and everyone's expressions were a bit subtle. Obviously, Xiure's worry was not unnecessary.

After all, there are very few opportunities to use breath-holding potions. There has never been an environment in the projection world where normal creatures cannot survive. Bringing breath-holding potions is just to prevent poisonous gas and miasma when entering the projection of other worlds. Normal people bring three or four Bottles are enough.Projections from other worlds like the current one that require a lot of breath-holding potions are really rare.

"Whether it's enough or not, report the quantity." Xiu Er became serious again.

"There are only two left." "Me too."

The answer is almost the same. After a long time of cooperation, habits will also affect each other, including the preparation of such general supplies.

"Sure enough." Shuer sighed, "the number is seriously insufficient."

"I brought two boxes." The elf mage's cold voice sounded.

"Thirty branches?" Even a leader like Xiuer, who needs to remain calm at all times, was startled. "Is this an alchemist's quirk?"

"It's just a coincidence."

"Okay." Shuer's eyes suddenly darkened, and his voice was a little tangled, "Everyone give me the potions and I will distribute them uniformly."

"Objections are allowed on this question." After thinking about it, he finally added.

Now that Mia has a large number of breath-holding potions, she can almost ensure safety under the current environment. Shuer's order is equivalent to allowing Mia to use a higher fault tolerance rate and a greater chance of survival in exchange for everyone's safety. The harvest from Shadow Chaser is a very unfair order. Once it is not handled well, trust will inevitably break.

The experience in my hometown has fully proved the terrible consequences of a crack in trust. Xiuer does not want to face it again, so he hopes to avoid it as much as possible.

however……

"Oh? Allow? Then I have objections." Mia's indifference and alienation became more obvious, and she said with a sneer, "I know, you want to distribute the medicine equally to ensure everyone's safety, but, have you asked me?" ?”
