Chapter 149: Tangled

In such a crisis-ridden game world, teammates like this were rare.

Shen Jufeng found that in this game world, he was very lucky. He couldn’t be a lone ranger here. It seemed that people were deliberately allowed to cooperate here, so wild monsters always appeared in groups. He could deal with it alone for now because he has that ability, but he couldn’t tell for sure in the future.

If he encounters higher-level wild monsters and gets good equipment, it’s hard not to guess whether his teammates will be jealous, but Lu Jiu has never shown greed for rewards. She just felt that the rewards she got were very interesting to look at.

Since there was no absolute certainty, it wasn’t a bad thing to get along with such a teammate, and he could even get more benefits.

This somewhat innocent teammate finally remembered that she should be afraid of him.

Fortunately, the farce was over. The two of them forgot about what happened before and continued on their way. However, when they met people again, Lu Jiu would not help them as enthusiastically as she did at the beginning.

Who knows if they will be bitten back?

At night, Shen Jufeng made a small fire by drilling wood to make a fire. He lay next to it with a stick under his head that he had picked up earlier.

Lu Jiu was still sitting next to the fire, watching the orange firelight shine on Shen Jufeng’s face. He was indeed handsome, but he was also ruthless.

She was a little troubled now. Although Shen Jufeng was a very cold person, he has never shown any malice toward her from the time they met until now, but he may be pretending.

But when they get along with each other, he always puts in more effort, speaks and does things neatly, and is a good teammate.

And……

Looking at Shen Jufeng with his eyes closed, she secretly took out a token. This was the city-building token. She bought it out of boredom while playing games before, but never used it. Unexpectedly, after the world changed, it became a good thing.

Looking at the token, she understood that this game world did not require them to build their own houses, but directly use the token to build a city.

She wanted to be the city lord where she could make her own decisions. Who knows what will happen if she goes to a city-state established by others?

However, she has no management experience, and Shen Jufeng was a manager of a large company before. He must be able to do this kind of thing, but why should others help her?

She had always felt that the name Shen Jufeng was familiar. Later, she remembered that her father had mentioned this name at home, saying that he was a pretty good kid and not as bad as others said.

At that time, she just thought her father was talking about business at home and didn’t pay attention.

Putting away the token, she glanced at Shen Jufeng, who seemed to be asleep, and slowly lay down. After closing her eyes, she decided to think about this later.

During the subsequent journey, the two often encountered groups of people, and this time, they finally saw the fields.

But this field was very small, there were already many people bending over there to pick, and almost all the grain had been picked.

Lu Jiu was a little disappointed, but Shen Jufeng didn’t care: “What kind of expression are you showing? Once you encounter such a place, you will encounter it again.”

“You’re right.” Lu Jiu said, and then she put away her sluggish expression. During this period, she ate the rice balls she brought out, but she was afraid that Shen Jufeng would think too much and didn’t dare to bring out other food.

It was so frustrating.

So they left here and continued on their way.

As they were leaving, Lu Jiu turned around to look at the land from time to time. Suddenly, Shen Jufeng grabbed her arm and pulled her to the side. She was a little wary of him, but Lu Jiu almost screamed when she was pulled like this.

But Shen Jufeng saw the frightened expression on his face, and he said coldly: “Walk well, there are stones.”

She looked back and saw that there was indeed a stone.

Shen Jufeng shook his head with a hopeless expression and let go of her arm.

Lu Jiu smiled coquettishly but felt a little relieved about him, and continued to walk backwards to look at the field. It wasn’t until the field completely disappeared that she turned around and walked properly.

After seeing the fields, Lu Jiu was in a good mood and chatted with Shen Jufeng beside him: “Say, now that there is food, will there be fruits? It seems that this world does not only allow us to eat meat.”

Shen Jufeng didn’t bother to pay attention to her and just let her continue talking.

“I’ve thought about building a house. If I can’t chop down this tree, I definitely can’t build it. I guess there are other ways.”

“I’m getting tired of eating rice balls these days, and I want to change my taste.”

“When can we stop walking in this wild place? I thought the scenery was beautiful at first, but now I’m exhausted of it.”

“……”

Lu Jiu was chattering like this all the way, and Shen Jufeng listened in all directions, paying attention to the wild monsters that appeared at any time.

Suddenly, he heard the roar of a wild beast and grabbed Lu Jiu directly.

Lu Jiu immediately calmed down and heard the low roars coming from behind them. When she turned around, she saw five wild monsters as big as calves.

Looking carefully, these seem to be dogs, but they look ferocious, with sharp teeth protruding from their mouths, and they salivate from time to time.

[Yanfan Dog]

(normal enhanced wild monster)

HP: 200

Attack: 23-45

Defense: 6

Ordinary enhanced wild monsters were now very difficult to encounter. These dogs were much more terrifying than the vicious dogs we learned about before the end.

Lu Jiu clenched her fists and encouraged herself, don’t be afraid, you won’t get hurt when fighting wild monsters now.

Shen Jufeng felt her nervousness and said: “Look at the situation and retreat. Don’t be brave if you don’t have enough HP. You have a weapon, so don’t be afraid.”

Lu Jiu nodded.

The attacks of canine wild monsters were stronger than those of red-eyed rabbits. Seeing the wild monster open its mouth and pounce toward it, Lu Jiu restrained her desire to retreat and kicked it directly.

Another one came at her again, and she mustered up the courage to punch it. Since starting her career, her strength has become many times stronger than before, so her hand didn’t hurt even after such a punch.

Shen Jufeng was even more fierce and fought hard against three wild monsters, but he was not at a disadvantage.

Lu Jiu found that these wild monsters looked fierce, but they couldn’t beat her at all. She just put pressure on herself psychologically.

They defeated five wild monsters in a few minutes, and Lu Jiu found something interesting in the rewards he received, “I got fire and a dagger.”

[Fire: An essential tool for survival in the wild, so you no longer have to drill wood to make fire.]

[Iron Dagger: This is a dagger. Using it in battle can increase the attack value by 5 points.]

Shen Jufeng also got fire and weapons. Seeing how happy she was, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

He doesn’t care about money. He has plenty of gold coins in his backpack, but in this game world, the necessities for survival now and in the future are weapons and equipment.

Lu Jiu happily touched the dagger. This was the first weapon she had obtained. Although she could not use it and the dagger did not match her profession, this was not a problem.

Not long after she was happy, Shen Jufeng suddenly turned cold and shouted to Lu Jiu: “Get away!”

Lu Jiu was confused, but turned around reflexively, only to see hands suddenly attacking her.

Lu Jiu calmly prepared to stab that hand, but before the hand touched her, she saw Shen Jufeng almost subconsciously pulling her over and kicking the man away.
