"Tao Bro, two aunties can''t walk anymore, can we stop and rest a while?"
When Che Xianxiu came over to plead, her expression was somewhat anxious.
Tao Yu merely nced at him and calmly said,
"If you keep mingling in the Abyss like this, you will die. If they want to rest, let theme and speak to me themselves."
It was clear someone had noticed he was giving special care to the few who were suspected to be ''The Chosen One''ster additions, and among them, Che Xianxiu was the easiest to talk to.
"This... alright, I''ll go and speak to them."
Obviously, neither of the two women had reached their limit, but one of them, who had been holding her dog all along, gritted her teeth, put down her dog, and forcibly followed, enduring the pain in her legs.
With Cao Shaolin and the Crow Squad clearing the path, the journey for those in the back had be much easier, Tao Yu had already loosened his estimated timing.
He had also given some extra attention to a few people with mobility issues.
But these two aunties were in much better condition than those who weren''t doing so well.
If they couldn''t keep up, then it could not be med on him—the Alien would appreciate the gift of nature...
Not until the sky gradually darkened, and the visibility in the Rainforest worsened did Tao Yu finally p his hands and say,
"Prepare for camping and rest, eat something to regain strength."
Upon hearing Tao Yu''s words, a few who were already exhausted found a spot by a tree root to sit down, not caring about dirt or cleanliness.
Some even cried upon seeing leeches stuck to their legs below the trousers.
This was even more ufortable than being inside an apartment building!
Back then, although they would worry about monsters and live in fear, they didn''t have to endure such a grind.
After all, for the vast majority of ordinary people, facing a monster attack would mean certain death; those who survived hadn''t really suffered much hardship.
And ordinary people found it significantly difficult to adapt to the Rainforest environment.
It was only because the journey was rtively short, and there was sufficient food as well as some emergency medical supplies.
Otherwise, who knows how many would have been lost.
"Don''t pull out the leeches directly, be careful of infecting the wound."
Experience tales with mvl
"Watch out for poisonous insects."
The medical student with sses and the caregiver, Ali, although equally exhausted, were still ceaselessly helping everyone check for bumps and bruises, walking back and forth through the group to remind them.
The Crow Squad, having had specialized jungle training, was well-trained and highly adaptable, even if the environment wasn''t exactly the same.
Some were igniting fires, others were setting up tents.
"When sleeping, don''t lie directly on the ground, make a framework with branches to elevate yourself, don''t expect others to help you, do it yourself, as we still have at least five more days of this journey ahead."
"The slower you are, theter you get out, and that is the problem right in front of us that needs to be solved, unchangeable."
Once in the woods, naturally, it was Tao Yu''s call.
Now, even if the members of the Crow Squad left the group, they would likely meet their demise without Da Hei''s protection!
Although there were cries of misery, still no one dared to retort to Tao Yu; everyone just started breaking off branches obediently to prepare.
Tents and sleeping bags were obviously not enough for everyone.
And under this high pressure, there was indeed an unexpected benefit.
Several people began to bleed from their noses due to the stress, showing symptoms of Demonization.
However, it seemed that because they were outside of their original world, they mostly exhibited enhanced regenerative abilities, and had not significantly mutated into monster-like forms.
This bumping and grinding journey went on for three days through the forest...
...
"Hmm?"
Riding on Da Hei''s back, Tao Yu was making his rounds around the group when he suddenly sensed some movement in the distance.
He patted Da Hei, who understood and let out a warning roar towards that direction, quieting the movements in the jungle immediately.
If it had been another Alien, it might''ve shown itself, so it was likely a Pioneer who had heard Da Hei''s roar...
