Against the War: After traveling through time, who wouldn’t want to be a little greedy?
Chapter 6 When I feel sleepy, someone gives me a pillow
The driver was a woman in her thirties. She was not as greedy as the other drivers and was obviously a down-to-earth person.
Looking at the driver's ordinary face, Luo Li felt that the driver was exceptionally beautiful.
After packing their things and putting them in the trunk, the two of them started driving towards their destination.
The journey was extremely boring, and the female driver tried to communicate with Luo Li to pass the time.
"Sir, what are you doing in such a remote place? I've never been there before, and the farthest I've been was dozens of kilometers away."
"Go get some samples and do some research." Luo Li lied with his eyes open.
"Really? Then you guys must be working so hard on scientific research that you don't even have a car." The female driver said with some sympathy.
"People who do scientific research naturally don't pursue external luxury. We only care about the process and results of scientific research." Luo Li explained seriously.
"Yes, thanks to researchers like you, ordinary people like us can have a good life." The female driver agreed with Luo Li. "For example, I can't afford those fancy facial cleansers, so I use products made from volcanic ash and mud."
……
Luo Li lived in Bengbu. Who knew he'd actually run into someone so serious that he couldn't fix it all at once? He'd heard of volcanic ash facial cleanser before, but he wasn't really a scientific researcher.
The female driver saw Luo Li's face turn awkward through the car's interior mirror. She thought she had said something wrong and apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ask about your research. I was just expressing my feelings."
"..." Luo Li suddenly felt a little restless, "It's okay, it's okay."
Then the two fell into a long silence.
It was a long time before the two continued their conversation, but this time they just talked about some trivial things in daily life to kill time.
Luo Li was much more talkative this time. Just kidding, when he was doing business in his previous life, the clients he met had all kinds of tempers, so his eloquence was naturally honed.
It's no worse than female drivers who communicate with customers every day.
Soon, Luo Li found out some information about the female driver.
Her name is Nilu. She is not yet 30 years old. She was married before, but she met a scumbag who took away almost all of her savings and then disappeared.
She tried to call the police, but it was useless. She could only endure it silently, and then tried to be a driver to at least make a living.
Things have gotten a little better over the years and my life has improved.
When talking about this experience, Nilu didn't show any reaction. Maybe it was because it happened too long ago, or maybe she no longer cared about it.
In her words, it is more important to live in the present.
Luo Li also felt a little emotional. He was like this in his previous life. At that time, he also thought that it would be enough to live well in the present.
A journey of a thousand miles sounds far, but time passed quietly as the two talked. When the sun gradually set in the west and fiery clouds bloomed in the sky, the destination was about to be reached.
After about another hour, the sky gradually darkened and they had reached the end of the road. Luo Li had to walk the rest of the way by himself.
"Ms. Nilu, nice to meet you and thank you for seeing me off." Luo Li said to Nilu who was sitting in the car as he took the things out of the car.
"Nice to meet you too, Mr. Luo Li." Nilu said with a smile.
"This is your reward." Luo Li took out seven bills and handed them to Ni Lu.
"It's not that much. We agreed on 500." Nilu only took five and handed the remaining 200 to Luo Li.
"No need. The remaining two hundred is because we had a pleasant chat along the way. Goodbye, Miss Nilu." Luo Li turned and left, carrying a large backpack and pulling a box in each hand.
"Goodbye, Mr. Luo Li." Ni Lu's voice came from behind.
……
"Damn, it's so hard to walk around this volcano!" Luo Li cursed and threw his things aside.
Although the things he carried were heavy, they were still within Luo Li's acceptable range. The main problem was that the road was too uneven, with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
After choosing a relatively flat place and moving some rocks away, Luo Li set up the tent right there.
Although there should be no large animals nearby, Luo Li still cautiously stretched a thin line around the tent and tied the other end to his wrist. This way, even if something attacked, he would know it immediately to avoid suffering a big loss in his sleep.
After eating a simple meal of dry food, Luo Li went to bed early to get enough energy for the next day's action.
……
The next day, Luo Li woke up early and opened the tent. It was still dark. He couldn't help it. Thinking about what happened today made him feel a little excited.
They took some of the things they needed with them and buried the rest on the spot. They also moved a few stones and threw them there as a camouflage.
Even though this place is rarely visited, preparing for the worst is the most basic preparation.
With simple disguise, even if someone happened to follow the same route as him, they would not notice anything unusual if they passed by here without careful inspection.
Afterwards, Luo Li walked towards the "lava volcano" standing in his sight.
Every time he walked a certain distance, Luo Li would take out a special telescope to observe and confirm whether there was any special situation.
In this way, Luo Li walked for about an hour. Although the road was not easy to walk on, it was like walking on flat ground for him who was lightly equipped. When the sky was about to clear, he finally arrived at the foot of the lava volcano.
When Luo Li picked up the telescope again and looked at the top of the mountain.
"Huh? This is it?"
……
Near the lava crater, three people wearing full body protective gear were fiddling with something.
"Is the data on your side okay? Why does this little guy look like he's in trouble?" one of them asked.
"Don't worry, it's okay. The data hasn't changed. You can see it's the same as yesterday." Another person who was checking the instrument replied.
"It's finally almost done. Four brothers were killed for this mission." The third person said, "I really don't know what the point is. It feels a bit not worth it." The third person's tone was full of dissatisfaction.
"Although I don't know the meaning of what we're doing and we won't see any results in the short term, our duty is to obey."
"You can express dissatisfaction with the decision of the top management, but this proposal was not only passed unanimously by the top management, but the doctor also said it was feasible, and that gentleman also agreed."
"Are you questioning the doctor, questioning that adult?" the first voice asked.
"Captain, how dare I?" The man with dissatisfied tone spoke immediately.
"Hmph! You can say that in front of us, but if you say it in the company and someone hears, you know the consequences," the captain said. He continued, "What kind of person is the doctor? All his ideas have never been wrong. All we have to do is obey."
Another person suddenly spoke up, "But Captain, although I don't know what this little guy is for, but from what you said, this mission won't be effective in a short time."
"This little guy was born not long ago. Although he can be considered powerful, he doesn't pose much of a threat. I think he only has growth potential, but who knows what the future holds? He might die halfway."
"If it weren't for the elemental chains that the doctor and that adult specifically gave us, you really think we can handle this little guy."
"The terrifyingly high temperature of the magma below is beyond the ability of members of our level to handle." The captain sneered.
"What do you think this little creature is? He's a natural elemental spirit. If the doctor and that adult hadn't figured out his exact location, we wouldn't be able to find him even if we searched for our entire lives."
"Also, do you think what the doctor and that adult gave us would be simple?"
"I spoke out of turn, Captain." The man apologized immediately.
"Actually, we've only completed the mission with the minimum requirements. According to the higher-ups' assumptions, this little creature should have signed a contract with us," the captain lamented. "But we didn't do that. We simply used this elemental chain to force it into submission."
"Captain, it's really not our fault. This little guy is very fierce. I even suspect that if it weren't for this chain restraining it, it would die immediately." Member No. 2 said immediately.
"Yes, Captain." Member No. 1 also said weakly.
"I don't blame you. No matter what, we completed the mission, even if it was completed at the minimum requirement. The company won't treat us unfairly." The captain said, "It's just that Monkey and the others have suffered. They..."
The captain's words came to an abrupt end before he could finish. An arrow pierced his throat from behind, and then he slowly fell to the ground.
"Who? Who is it?" The remaining two people hurriedly pulled out submachine guns from their waists and turned around to look around.
Then, an unfamiliar male voice sounded behind them.
"I don't know who the monkey you're talking about is, but I think you can go and keep him company. Isn't that right?"
Although the two of them felt a little strange in their hearts, the arrow was shot from behind the captain, but the sound came from in front of the captain.
The two men just turned around again and looked towards the source of the sound. Although they didn't see anyone, they pulled the trigger without hesitation.
"Bang bang bang bang bang..."
The two men emptied a volley of bullets in an instant, and the source of the sound was covered by their firepower, but no blood was seen splattering.
"Not good." A thought just arose in the minds of the two.
"call out!"
Another arrow shot out from the same position and instantly pierced through the mask of member No. 1.
The last member turned around and saw a young man walking towards him with a compound bow in his hand.
"You deserve to die." Member No. 2 pulled out a pistol from his waist, but before he could load it, he saw the man, released the compound bow, and an arrow shot into his face before he could react.
"Hello and goodbye."
This was the last sound heard by member number two.
This man was naturally Luo Li. Just now, at the foot of the mountain, Luo Li saw figures on the top of the mountain with a telescope. He quickly approached the three people while hiding his body. Fortunately, the lava volcano was not high, about 800 meters above sea level, so it didn't take much time to deal with it.
In fact, according to Luo Li's own idea, he wanted to stand in front of the three people with his hands behind his back, and then say lightly
"I'm sorry, but unfortunately I have to tell you that you failed."
With his current physical condition, in principle, his flirtatious ideas can be realized.
However, Luo Li discovered that these three people were equipped with good equipment, so he chose to be more cautious.
This is not called being cowardly, he just doesn't want any accidents to happen.
Luo Li ignored the three corpses on the ground and saw a red object that looked like a whip blade.
"Is this the elemental chain they mentioned?" Luo Li thought to himself. As for what was locked, Luo Li knew it without having to guess.
He really wanted to laugh now. Could this be like someone giving him a pillow when he felt sleepy?
