Socially anxious people transmigrate to another world; living in seclusion is too difficult.
Chapter 33 The first confrontation
With only a few simple bags, Su Yang followed Die'er's directions and headed towards Wanji Mountain. For some reason, Die'er and Linglong both materialized and insisted on walking with Su Yang. The two bickered constantly along the way, and Die'er was always furious. Sometimes, Linglong would finish his sarcastic remarks and then fall silent, leaving Die'er with nowhere to vent her anger, which made her even angrier. For some reason, Die'er and Linglong became more like living people, with their own joys and sorrows, and even their personalities became more distinct.
"Alright, you two stop arguing." Su Yang wanted to be a good guy and mediate, but neither of the two ladies would listen. He sighed helplessly and said, "Let's stop here and rest for a while. We've been walking for a long time." Then, Su Yang found a tree to sit down. Linglong obediently sat down next to Su Yang, while Die'er was still sulking and rubbing the grass next to her.
Su Yang entered the tree world and checked his status:
Name: Su Yang
Age: 24
Elemental Powers: Cloud, Air, Light; Development Progress: 95.23%
Special element: Fog; Development progress: 100%
Permanent Skills: Detection Radar, Cloud Barrier
Spirit Beast: Sky-Splitting Tiger (Status: Hungry)
Companion Spirit Skill: Light of Harmony
"It's the same as last time, nothing has changed. It seems I've neglected my improvement lately. When I get back this time, I'll have to buy a light element bracelet to practice with." Su Yang sighed, then took Xiao Ju out of his backpack and gave her some jerky: "Are you hungry, Xiao Ju? I've been on the road the whole way and forgot about you."
Little Orange meowed twice and then lowered its head to devour the jerky. After Little Orange finished eating and rested for a while, Su Yang and his group continued on their way.
Meanwhile, Lin Anlan and the Blood Squad, following the information compiled by Yin Tianbao, continued their journey without stopping. Passing by Su Yang's farm, they took a moment to observe it. Seeing the eight characters written on the farm gate: "Boundless Freedom, Hidden Farm," Lin Anlan chuckled, "Thinking of freedom in this world? It's laughable." Zhang Wenbo leaned closer and asked, "Captain, what do those words mean?"
"It's nothing to worry about, let's keep going." Lin Anlan didn't reply and led the team forward. They soon entered the Wanji Mountain area and approached the place where Su Yang was resting.
Su Yang hadn't gone far after his rest when the cloud radar detected something approaching within 100 meters behind him. It was slower than a ferocious beast but faster than a human. Su Yang quickly made a judgment and said to Die'er and Linglong, "Someone is approaching from behind. It should be an adventurer, and I estimate their rank is not low. Quickly hide." After saying that, he pulled the two of them to hide in the nearby woods.
Before long, Lin Anlan and the others came into Su Yang's view. The group of six was moving incredibly fast, probably because they were using elemental power. Su Yang thought they would just pass by, but Zhang Wenbo, who was walking at the front of the group, shouted, "Stop, Captain, something's up, there are people nearby." The whole group stopped next to the tree where Su Yang had just rested and began to stand guard.
This made Su Yang's heart race, and he couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "How do they know there are people here?" But he didn't dare to make any rash moves; if things got really bad, he would just run away.
Zhang Wenbo activated his earth elemental power and accurately located the tree where Su Yang was resting. Fortunately, Su Yang had already hidden on the other side, otherwise he would have been discovered.
“The people who stayed here before didn’t find any trace of elemental power being activated. Captain, what should we do? Should we find them?” Zhang Wenbo asked.
"Hmm..." Lin Anlan pondered for a moment, then said, "Find him."
"Alright." Zhang Wenbo continued to unleash his elemental power, and the surrounding earth trembled slightly in a regular pattern. The fluctuations quickly covered Su Yang's feet. In an instant, Zhang Wenbo raised his shield in Su Yang's direction and shouted, "Who goes there! Come out!" Instantly, the entire team went into battle mode, all facing Su Yang's direction and on guard.
Upon realizing he had been discovered, Su Yang instinctively tried to escape, immediately running deeper into the forest and activating his mist elemental power to conceal himself. The moment he activated it, Lin Anlan noticed, shouting, "He's activated his elemental power! Attack!" With that, an arrow imbued with fire elemental power shot out, creating a trail of flames as it accurately struck Su Yang.
Su Yang was taken aback. He hadn't expected to be targeted so precisely as soon as he activated his elemental power. It seemed this team was quite strong. Little Orange poked its head out of the backpack, about to activate its elemental power, but Su Yang pressed it back down and activated his cloud elemental power, transforming it into a physical longsword. He deflected the incoming arrows with a single strike. The temperature of the rolling flames was unbearable for Su Yang, and a corner of his clothes was ignited. Su Yang extinguished the flames and continued to activate his mist elemental power, this time completely concealing himself.
When Zhang Wenbo and the other guards and pioneers arrived, Su Yang was nowhere to be seen; only wisps of mist lingered in the woods.
"Alright, no need to chase anymore." Lin Anlan called out to the group who wanted to continue the pursuit: "The elemental reaction has moved away. It seems this person doesn't want to fight us. Is there any blood on the ground?"
“There was no blood, only some burn marks,” Zhang Wenbo answered truthfully.
"It seems this person is quite strong. I used eighty percent of my strength in that arrow, yet it didn't even scratch him. We should hurry on our way and be careful to avoid being followed." After saying this, Lin Anlan led the group to continue their journey.
Su Yang escaped into the depths of the forest before dispelling his elemental power. He looked at the charred hem of his clothes, feeling a little regretful. These were clothes that had been with him for a long time in the other world, and now they were burned. He then asked Die'er, "Die'er, who are these people? How come they are so strong?"
"Judging from the number of people, they should be Orange Sky-level adventurers, but judging from the amount of elemental energy, they are fully capable of Crimson Storm-level strength. Perhaps they are a team of adventurers who are about to advance to the Crimson Storm-level." After thinking for a while, Die'er's eyes lit up and she excitedly said to Su Yang, "If they are about to advance, they must have come to Wanji Mountain for some kind of opportunity or mission. It must be very rare, and it is also an opportunity for you to improve your abilities. Hurry up and catch up with them."
Su Yang was speechless and said, "Weren't we here to catch fish? Why are we following them? Who knows where they're going?"
"Oh dear, you can catch fish anytime! Now that you have such a great opportunity and chance right in front of you, why are you turning it down? With your current strength, you are fully capable of seizing this opportunity. Why don't you follow us?" Die'er urged again.
Hearing about seizing someone else's opportunity, Su Yang felt a bit disgusted. After all, as a college student, although he couldn't be considered an outstanding student, he still couldn't do such a thing. Seeing that Su Yang still wanted to refuse, Die'er immediately pulled Ling Long to persuade him. On this matter, Ling Long supported Die'er. Ling Long said, "Master, the law of the jungle is the basic rule of the world. Not everyone is as kind as you. That arrow just now was clearly meant to take your life. Besides, we have no grudge against them. This grudge should be avenged."
The two women chatted back and forth, shoving Su Yang forward. Unable to resist their lecturing, Su Yang had no choice but to agree to follow and see what was going on. He also said that if there was an opportunity, he wouldn't try to take it. Then, following Xiao Ju's guidance, Su Yang followed the traces left by the elemental reaction.
