The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

At 9:5 p.m. on September 11, Xu Yiyu, who was walking in front with a trekking pole, stopped at the edge of a cliff with a smooth surface and made a pre-agreed gesture to the three people behind him.

Amidst the violent storm, Xu Cheng was the first to notice the hand gesture made by his cousin who was covering himself up extremely tightly. He spoke up in time to stop Rong Yan and Qi He who had not yet stopped.

"No need to go on. There is indeed a cliff over there. There is no way forward."

Qi He looked down at the electromagnetic positioning device he carried with him, found a nearby rock protrusion that could barely shelter him from the rain, and was the first to walk there.

Standing on the edge of the bottomless cliff, Xu Yiyu glanced down at the bottom of the cliff. Although she was extremely afraid of heights, her heartbeat did not show any sign of speeding up.

In the wind and rain, visibility was already low. Even with her eyesight, she couldn't see what was at the bottom of the deep cliff.

The dark bottom of the cliff is like a huge mouth of the abyss that has opened to its fullest, waiting for every offender who tries to approach it.

"My dear, come here for a moment. Boss Qi has made a discovery."

Xu Cheng's voice came from behind him. Xu Yiyu subconsciously turned his head and left the edge of the cliff which looked extremely dangerous.

When they walked under the rock protrusion, Qi He had already wiped most of the rain off the screen of the electromagnetic positioning device. Rong Yan was standing with his back facing outwards, blocking the rain that was trying to be blown into this space by the wind.

Xu Cheng had already taken off his outdoor bag and took out a few pre-prepared hot packs from the outermost layer, distributing two to each person.

The four people present all understood that if they were in such extreme conditions and encountered any unexpected situation, they would most likely suffer from hypothermia. Although it would be hot to apply a heat pack in summer, this little thing could very likely save a life when someone was on the verge of hypothermia.

After Xu Yiyu took the hot pack from Xu Cheng, he quickly turned his back, opened his tightly wrapped coat, and placed the baby inside the coat, one on each side.

Rong Yan’s operation was similar, but after putting on the heat pack, he still took off the glasses that were previously on his nose and roughly wiped the rain off them.

"Ms. Xu, the magnetic field in this place is quite chaotic. Originally, according to the positioning device, although there is indeed a cliff in the direction we are heading, the actual distance is at least 500 meters further ahead."

"If I remember correctly, the maximum positioning error of this device does not exceed 10 meters. Excluding the problem of inaccurate positioning here, it should be that the positioning is affected by the chaotic geomagnetic field, which is why there is such a large error."

The electromagnetic positioning device in Qi He's hand was the equipment purchased by Tianlin when he was purchasing supplies. Its positioning accuracy far exceeds all civilian positioning devices on the market. If it were not for the influence of geomagnetism, positioning deviation would not have occurred.

Xu Yiyu could indeed locate the current position of the four of them more accurately with the help of Tongzi, but since they came out to find out the degree of danger ahead, the danger level that could be determined without external help would be accurate enough.

After all, not everyone has a system like her and her sisters. If many difficulties have been eliminated in advance by Tongzi, everyone in the team will not be able to know the truly objective and real situation.

"Yes, we are now in the Domiti Mountains. According to the positioning, there is a path about 1 kilometer to the side that leads to the bottom of the cliff, but it will take some time."

Everyone present understood that the straight line is the shortest distance between two points. This cliff was a place they had to pass on their way forward. If they chose another route to go around it, they would have to add nearly 10 kilometers to their journey.

In this dangerous mountain range, 10 kilometers will consume most people's physical strength. If you encounter wild beasts in the forest, you are likely to lose the correct direction when you flee in a panic. It doesn't seem to be a wise choice.

"My dear, you and Master Qi stay here. Rong Yan and I will go to that path first. If we are sure there is no danger, we will call you over."

"Okay, then you and Rong Yan remember to be careful. If something goes wrong, come back quickly and don't force it."

Xu Yiyu glanced at Rong Yan, who had already pulled up his coat and was ready to go out into the wind and rain again, then turned his gaze to Xu Cheng and gave her a comforting smile.

"Don't worry, I still have to lead the team later, and I won't force it. And with Master Rong, a humanoid encyclopedia, by my side, he will remind me in time."

Although Rong Yan is a member of the theoretical group, judging from the two hours of exploration, his physical fitness is actually not inferior to that of Qi He, who has rich outdoor experience.

Apart from being a bit taciturn, Rong Yan is actually very strong in all aspects of his physical fitness.

Qi He lowered his head slightly and said a few words to Rong Yan, then patted Rong Yan on the shoulder and watched him and Xu Yiyu walk back into the storm that greatly affected their vision.

As they walked along the path leading to the bottom of the cliff, Rong Yan, who usually did not speak unless necessary during treasure hunting team meetings, asked Xu Yiyu a question as he walked forward.

"Ms. Xu, if you weren't afraid that Brother Qi and Mr. Cheng would worry, have you ever thought about the possibility of going down to the bottom of the cliff by yourself?"

While wiping the rain off his goggles, Xu Yiyu looked back at Rong Yan, watching him walk step by step to his side and stand silently in the wind and rain.

However, she only looked at Rong Yan for a few seconds before she laughed.

"Mr. Rong is right. If it weren't for reassuring them, given my physical strength and endurance, I did think of going down the cliff alone to check the situation."

Unexpectedly, this elite from the theoretical group, with whom she had not communicated much, was the first to guess her true thoughts.

"Ms. Xu must not be used to teamwork, a collaborative model where many people work together to accomplish something, right?"

"Yes, when I was still an ordinary person, I was used to being alone. I suffered losses alone and enjoyed happiness alone. Except for my fiancé, I basically don't like to interact with other people when they are doing serious work."

In the midst of the violent storm, the sound of the two people's conversation was blown away within five steps, and only Xu Yiyu and Rong Yan heard it.

When Rong Yan got Xu Yiyu's answer, there was no surprise on his face. He just reached into the pocket of his raincoat, took something out and handed it to Xu Yiyu.

"I used to be the same person as you, until I met my companions."

Xu Yiyu took the thing from Rong Yan's hand in the wind and rain, and when he looked down, he found that it was a miniature photo embedded in the pendant.

After a quick look for a few seconds, Xu Yiyu smiled faintly, handed the photo back to Rong Yan, and continued walking along the path with him.

"In China, I already have a group of companions who are traveling together, but I am still very happy to get your help this time."

Xu Yiyu was really glad in his heart that it was these team members who entrusted their lives to him.

After all, the feeling of being trusted wholeheartedly by someone, she, Xu, really feels... not bad.
