National Games: Zhongli at the beginning, the sense of security is full

The chat interface of the high-tech mobile phone in the trial world is not much different from the chat software interface Jiang Yuan used before.

White's friend's avatar is a broadsword that Jiang Yuan looks familiar to.

White's headshot is a plate of food, and it's unclear when it was taken.

"White: It's okay. Why do you ask?"

"Other: I see there are suddenly a few more people in your place."

"White: They are my teammates. They just learned about this function after my reminder."

The other party did not reply quickly.

After about a minute, the other party's message popped up.

"Other: Your number reminds me of a group of people I met before."

"Person: Do you know Burns?"

"Whitey: He's on our team."

"other side:……"

"Other: I'm Zachary."

Sometimes things are just such a coincidence.

Zachary, who had reached the [-]th floor, somehow returned to the [-]st floor for a trial. By coincidence, he met Jiang Yuan's team.

"White: ...What a coincidence."

After seeing this chat interface, Jiang Yuan's phone vibrated slightly and received a message.

"Zachary requested to be your friend."

Jiang Yuan agreed.

"Zachary: Who are you?"

"Jiang Yuan: I am Jiang Yuan."

"Zachary: OK."

Jiang Yuan waited, but did not wait for the other party's reply. Looking to the side, Burns also received a friend request.

After Burns informed the other party's name, the friend was deleted.

"System prompt: You have been deleted as a friend."

"Burns:?" (You have no friends of the other party, so this message cannot be sent.)

Burns fell silent, feeling he was being targeted.

Zachary, who is still some distance away from everyone, is rushing here, planning to join forces with everyone.

He has no intention of passing the test alone and not cooperating with others.

No matter what, it is a good thing to be able to pass the level. Once he gets the reward for clearing the level again and again, sooner or later he will be able to reach the level where he can easily clear the level alone.

Moreover, more than one trialist will enter the same small trial world at a high level, and the difficulty of the trial will also increase.

Thinking about Jiang Yuan, who had no difficulty defeating him, the several teammates around Jiang Yuan, and Burns, who he didn't want to admit but had strong assisting ability...

It was almost impossible for him to pass the current trial alone.

The only possible way is for him to come up with props that can clear the level on the spot.

That kind of prop is the rarest, let alone not seeing it for many years, even if he saw it, he wouldn't be able to afford it.

Zachary friended everyone except Burns.

On the way here, he still had time to send messages to others.

Zachary told Jiang Yuan that there was also a gloomy forest over there. When he first entered the world, he met a crow. His intuition told him that he was in danger, so he ran away without fighting the crow.

The crows chased him for a while, but failed to catch up with him and flew to an unknown place.

Zachary is facing the crowd.

Based on what he said and everyone's observations, it can be determined that the so-called "open space outside the forest" is actually an open space in the forest with no trees growing. They are not considered to have walked out of the forest.

At this time, there are other trialists nearby on the map, and Zachary will still need some time.

All the trialists who rushed nearby stopped in the forest without coming out.

As a tester, you can distinguish other testers, so everyone found that there was no tester anywhere they looked.

The group of melee creatures may be creatures that exist in this world itself.

Even if a friend is added, the species after exchanging information still does not get any more information about the world.

No, to be precise, they were not exchanging information at all.

Because Zachary doesn't know any more than they do.

"Zachary: I'm here."

The message flashes.

On the map hanging aside, Zachary was already very close to their speed.

"Jiang Yuan: Don't come out yet, observe..."

Jiang Yuan was halfway through typing the message, but the movement ahead made him send the message with a tremor of his hand.

The heads of the creatures fighting in the open space turned strangely at the same time, looking in the direction where everyone in Jiang Yuan was facing.

After a moment of pause, they turned their backs to Jiang Yuan's group and rushed towards the other side.

"This movement..." Paimon crossed his arms on his chest, "It couldn't have been caused by Zachary."

"..."

Very likely.

Jiang Yuan thought as he looked at the small dots getting closer and closer on the map.

The damage of these melee creatures plus crows is not too high.

Zachary, who was suspected of being under siege, never stopped.

When they got closer, everyone could see clearly the fighting situation.

Zachary wielded a broadsword with extraordinary momentum, either knocking the enemy away or simply splitting his body into two pieces.

Dark red blood spattered, and the scene was bloody and fleshy.

Zachary's body was covered with a layer of blood. When he saw Jiang Yuan and the others, he gave a smile. Combined with the blood on his face, he looked extremely ferocious.

There were endless hostile creatures and crows. What was strange was that when Zachary walked about a hundred meters away, the constantly attacking creatures stopped.

They retreated, Zachary suddenly became unimportant, and the melee resumed.

Zachary swung his sword in the air and turned his head to look doubtfully, as if he was still unfinished.

He looked at the creatures, and then at Jiang Yuan and the others here. After a brief thought, he wiped his face and walked towards this side.

Jiang Yuan, who walked without getting dirty, looked at his appearance and couldn't help but want to step back.

To be honest, he has a lot of combat experience, but he has never been able to achieve this look many times.

"Alas."

Paimon made a slightly disgusted tone and backed away without leaving a trace.

Zachary keenly noticed the subtle glances of others falling on him, and stopped a few meters away.

"Ah, sorry."

He glanced down at his look.

"Sometimes I forget about my image when fighting."

As he spoke, he took out a strange-looking prop from his arms and poured energy into it.

White mist emanated from the props, enveloping his entire body.

When the white mist dissipated, the blood on Zachary's body disappeared, and his whole body was bright and shiny, as if still glowing faintly.

"Wow!"

Paimon looked at the prop in his hand in surprise: "What is this? It's so magical!"

"The props I obtained before are used in this situation." Zachary came closer, and everyone smelled a hint of fragrance from him.

"I personally don't care much about image, but I can't talk to other trialists with bloodstains all over my body."

He handed the prop to Paimon, who was full of curiosity, and motioned for her to play with it.
