Chapter 596: Li Yunfan's Cover; Encounter with Hao Ren; Crossing the Sea
"No, no," the technician didn't dare to look him in the eye, "It could be from outside, or it could be the ability of someone else who entered the simulation field."
Li Yunfan looked at Qin Ling with a slightly moved look in his eyes, and said to him: "Mr. Qin, do you still remember what I told you about Chang Le being attacked?"
Qin Ling's mouth corners lowered, and the creases between his eyebrows deepened: "Well, so you mean interference too?"
"Yes." Li Yunfan said, "During these three days of assessment, the person behind the scenes has the last chance to take action. If this interference is a test by the person behind the scenes, it makes sense."
Qin Ling remained silent.
Li Yunfan went out to relieve himself.
After confirming that no one was nearby, he connected to a person: "Brother Wei."
On the other end, the voice of Wei Kunyu, the head of the Wei family, rang out: "What's up, Old Li?"
"Qin Ling is suspicious of Chang Le. Brother, your niece is not easy to worry about. I'm afraid she knows we are watching and is deliberately making things mysterious to arouse Qin Ling's suspicion. Although I can help cover it up, if she insists on exposing herself, I can't stop her."
"Actively exposed?"
Li Yunfan hummed, "I don't know what method they used to interfere with the system. It's not intentional. They are just short of showing us their skills blatantly!"
Wei Kunyu pondered for a moment and said, "You should help cover up. Tell me immediately if you have any uncontrollable behavior."
"I know, but..." Li Yunfan lowered his voice, "Can she really... do it?"
Wei Kunyu sighed, "Old Li, don't ask this. When she can really come out of the [Making God Realm] safely and really get something key, then everything will be clear."
Li Yunfan frowned and said, "Brother Wei, tell me for sure, will this time... be the same as the time with the Dragon Emperor?"
"No." Wei Kunyu answered decisively.
"The young people of their generation think completely differently from us old guys."
Wei Kunyu smiled bitterly: "Each of them has chosen their own path, and they act with boldness, unlike us old gentlemen."
"Gu Yujing and the others are not us, and Chang Le is not Shen Fuguang."
"We lost a Dragon Emperor back then, and we must not let that mistake happen again this time."
Li Yunfan sighed softly: "I know. I will keep an eye on Qinling. Since Ying Huaixia's accident, the Qin family has become more and more obsessed with integration. I'm afraid something will happen."
Wei Kunyu said: "Old Gu and the others have already prepared for this matter, so don't worry too much."
After Li Yunfan hung up, he returned to the control room.
On the screen, Chang Le met Hao Ren in the western desert of Nanbuzhou Island.
……
Desert beetles swarmed in, densely covering the desert, which was terrifying to watch. Chang Le did not dare to fight, and seeing that the beetles were not the corresponding targets, he immediately followed the map to hide in a nearby lake.
This desert beetle is very territorial and will not stray too far from its nest.
The desert is a dead land. The wind swept across the endless and unobstructed desert, howling like a death horn, making people panic. The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and more and more turbid.
Chang Le covered his mouth and nose, squinted his eyes and looked into the distance. The ochre sky in the distance was getting closer and closer!
Sandstorm!
Chang Le pulled off his coat and tied it around his face, looking for a place to hide.
At this time, a figure rushed over from the front of the sandbags. Chang Le looked closely and found that it was Hao Ren!
Hao Ren rushed over and pulled her to hide in a group of wind-weathered rocks.
The two of them covered their mouths and noses and used their bodies to hold up the space. The supernatural energy expanded outwards to ensure that there was a place to breathe and they would not be completely buried.
Fortunately, the sandstorm did not last too long, and thanks to the strong psychological qualities of both of them, they managed to get through it calmly.
Hao Ren gently moved the backpack on top, and sand fell down.
By the falling direction and flow of the sand, Hao Ren determined the general situation of the sand above and made a few gestures to Chang Le, indicating that she could move upwards from there.
Hao Ren used his backpack for support, and Chang Le swung out the vines and pushed in the direction he indicated.
The two men, covered in dust, crawled out of the sand and stood on the rocks that were not completely submerged.
"Puh, phuh, phuh!" Chang Le spat out several mouthfuls of sand.
After all, it has been so long that you will ingest a lot of sand just by breathing.
Chang Le turned around and was surprised to find that Hao Ren had taken several steps back and was looking at her with a dry laugh.
"What are you doing?" Chang Le blinked, "I won't kill you."
Hao Ren heaved a sigh of relief and walked back: "Okay, I feel relieved with your words, Chang Le."
Chang Le didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You should know better than me. Although the rules this time allow mutual attack, the situation is completely different from the original endurance training.
Killing other examiners will not bring any bonus to you, nor can you pick up their items or points, which is equivalent to a waste of effort. "
"Instead of wasting time killing the examiners three times, it would be better to spend the energy on finding the items. After all, it is impossible to find all forty items by one person alone."
"Brother Hao Ren, you have a good brain and I have some strength. This desert is full of dangers. Why don't we cooperate temporarily and travel together for a while?" Chang Le took the initiative to extend an olive branch.
Hao Ren smiled and said, "Of course! I couldn't ask for more! I'm not good at fighting, and leaving me alone in this old ruins is simply not giving me a chance to survive. Chang Le, if you are willing to give me a hand, I promise I won't hold you back."
The two of them walked forward together.
It does make things a little easier when there are people taking care of each other, and at the same time, we can chat with each other so that we don’t feel like the days are passing by so slowly.
"Chang Le, where will you go after you pass through Nanbuzhou Island?"
Chang Le said, "I'm not sure yet. The Southern Continent Island is surrounded by the sea, and is closer to the simulated area of the Western Region of the Middle Earth and the Andaia Mountains. I'll wait until we get to the seaside and see the situation there before deciding which area to go to. What about you? What are your plans?"
Hao Ren smiled bitterly and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, I probably won't go to other areas. It's too difficult for me to cross the deep sea in the Old Ruins area. I want to stay in this area to study it carefully and train well.
Although I won’t get any points, I can get familiar with the environment here, which will be of great benefit to my future work.”
"Then we'll go to the northern coast together."
……
Chang Le and Hao Ren arrived at the northern coast of Nanbuzhou Island.
The two men were covered in mud, their hair and clothes were a mess, and they had injuries to varying degrees. The fatigue on their faces was extremely obvious.
Hao Ren sat down and said, "I can't do it anymore. I'll stay here and continue to train. Chang Le, do you want to keep going?"
Chang Le observed the situation in the sea, and after comparing it with the map, he said, "Well, I have collected most of the items here, and I will continue to other areas."
Hao Ren got up, looked at the sea, and said, "How about you clean and treat your wounds first while I'm watching you? I'll help you now. If your injuries get worse when you cross the sea, it will be difficult to deal with."
Chang Le glanced at him and nodded: "Okay, thank you. I'll go over there and take care of it."
"Be safe."
Hao Ren turned his back to her, paying attention to the movements around him. Chang Le activated [Swallowing and Exhaling] to promote the self-healing of the wounds on his body, then washed off the blood stains on his body, bandaged it with a cloth strip, and walked back.
"Won't you take a break?"
Chang Le put on his waterproof backpack and packed his things: "No, I'd better hurry up. Brother Hao Ren, goodbye."
She bit the dagger, entered the sea, and swam northwest under Hao Ren's gaze.
……
A few hours later.
Simulation area, the old ruins coast of the Anddaya Mountains in the Meli Federation.
"Bam—"
A ferocious fish over three meters long was thrown from the sea onto the shore and fell heavily to the ground. Most of its scales had fallen off its body and it was bleeding. Its tail flapped rapidly but it could not move.
A hand that was pale from being soaked in sea water stretched out from the sea, and then Chang Le, who was soaked all over, climbed out of the sea.
She dragged herself ashore, with a hideous wound on her right leg, and the culprit was struggling on the shore.
