Infinite Fighting

Chapter 317 Kenzie's Squad

In the boundless chaos, countless particles of consciousness responded to Zhang Ji, but they were too scattered and separated by a great distance on the spacetime scale. The information that Zhang Ji resonated with in spacetime was intermittent and it would take some time to reconstruct the spacetime network stably.

At that time, we will be able to share spatiotemporal information across countless other entities in reality, and return to our peak.

"There are more here!"

Suddenly, Zhang Ji sensed another part of his consciousness particles. It was far away, but there were enough of them to barely construct a preliminary carrier.

Zhang Ji decided to move closer to this side and synchronize the information.
-
Canzodi World.

The Niels Empire.

In the wilderness more than 100 kilometers outside the city of Claude, a group of adventurers were traveling.

They wore the insignia of an adventure team, a marigold, along with a certificate from the Adventurers' Guild, signifying that they were a Tier 3 adventurer team capable of carrying out Tier 3 adventurer missions.

This group of adventurers consisted of seven people: five men and two women.

The leader was a brown-haired man who looked to be around thirty years old, carrying a greatsword. Although he was a bit unkempt, he was burly and looked like someone you didn't want to mess with.

He is the leader of this team, Kenzie Barut, a Tier 3 Hall of Fame adventurer.

"Captain, there's someone over there."

The speaker was Lorna Courtney, one of the two female adventurers in the team. She was the team's beauty icon, with blonde hair, blue eyes, and a graceful figure. Whenever there was a need for negotiation, having her handle the situation would easily yield information. She was also a Wind Whisperer, able to obtain information from afar through wind elements. Every proper adventure team needed to have someone like her.

"I gonna go see."

A slender figure shrouded in a black cloak took the lead, disappearing into the jungle in a flash.

Yes Mack, an assassin who never shows his true face, possesses exceptional stealth and disguise skills, and his unique Shapeshifting ability is unparalleled; if he wants, he can transform into anyone in two breaths.

Before long, Yes saw the figure: a young man lying on the ground. There were no signs of injury on his body, and he seemed to be fully conscious, with no confusion in his eyes.

But he was probably not a normal person; he was most likely disabled. Yes observed him for a few moments but couldn't see any signs of movement on his body. His muscles showed no reaction at all. It was clear that he was a paralyzed person due to severe nerve damage, abandoned by his family in this desolate place to fend for himself.

Yes silently left the spot and returned to the team in less than a minute, informing Kenzie of the information.

“He was a paralyzed wretch who was abandoned in the wild by his family to fend for himself,” Yes said, his mouth slightly open beneath his mask.

“Let’s go around it,” Mels Richard said.

He was the archer in the group, carrying a bow on his back and a flared magic pistol at his waist.

He came from a relatively primitive tribe. His skin was somewhat dark brown, and his hair was braided into small braids and was not washed for many years. It is said that this was a tradition of their tribe.

“Let’s provide humanitarian aid,” Gaia Nek said.

He was impeccably dressed and had a refined and scholarly appearance. He was a descendant of a nobleman who had attended a formal academy and systematically studied medicine and magic. However, due to some family conflicts, he gave up inheriting the title and became an adventurer. Therefore, he was the most meticulous and highly educated member of the team.

“We’re about to head to the bear’s den, where would we find the time to rescue people? Lord Gaia, this isn’t your civilized castle, so please don’t be so kind,” Gray Burns said with a mocking expression.

He was very strong and muscular, and stood a full 1.9 meters tall, almost comparable to a barbarian.

In fact, he does have half barbarian blood and can even use berserk skills.

After each use, there is a long period of weakness, unlike real barbarians who can recover after eating, drinking and sleeping.

On his back was a large axe with a handle nearly two meters long. When he swung it, it could cut down a tree that a person could hug in one go.

“Article 7 of Chapter 3 of the Adventurers’ Treaty: Unconditional rescue of those in distress,” Gaia said.

"Stop reading that. Which adventurer actually follows that? It's just the Adventurers' Guild's no-liability statement. It's just telling you not to come looking for them if something happens to you, but they can come to you if they need something," Gray interrupted.

“The laws are also beneficial to us. It was precisely because of the Adventurers’ Treaty that we were able to get help in the ‘Rabbit Walks the Desert’ and get out,” Gaia said.

“Master Gaia, don’t be silly, we paid for it, okay? It was just a transaction,” Gray said.

"Dang~!"

A pot was banged on.

It was played by Dalena Gavin, one of the two women in the group.

She was tall and very healthy, but unfortunately, she had two scars on her face and her nose was sunken, making her look less attractive.

In the team, she mainly serves as the cook and also provides some basic first aid and medical services.

"Stop arguing, let the captain make the decision," Dalina said to Kenzie.

Kenzie shrugged and said, "Let's vote."

“I have no objection,” Gaia said.

“That’s settled then,” Gray said.

They then placed their hands behind their backs, and at Kenzie's command, extended both palms and backs of their hands.

The palm of the hand represents rescue, while the back of the hand represents ignoring it.

Four votes were cast for the rescue, two votes were vetoed, and one vote was abstained.

Gray and Meers vetoed the motion outright, while Yes abstained.

The remaining four all voted in favor.

Delina was also picked up by Kenji and joined the team in the same way, so she voted in favor.

Rona, on the other hand, is simply kind-hearted.

Gaia considered himself a civilized person, a descendant of a noble family with principles and a bottom line, and strictly abided by the treaty.

Kenji didn't care; it would just mean temporarily consuming an extra portion of rations. They had plenty of food with them, and their supplies in the wild were plentiful. They could just take it back to the city and give it to the church's almshouse—no trouble at all. "Alright, let's take him along then. Long live civilization," Gray said sarcastically, his expression utterly speechless.

In his hometown, newborn babies are thrown into the snow to freeze for ten minutes. Only those who survive are eligible to become members of the tribe. Those with weak constitutions are better off dying early, as living them is a waste of resources.

In his mind, there was no point in saving such a paralyzed person and letting him live a miserable life.

The group quickly arrived at the place where they had found the paralyzed young man.

The young man remained paralyzed on the spot, staring at them with no emotion in his eyes.

“Hey buddy, we’re here to rescue you. Can you talk? How did you end up here?” Gray said as he stepped forward.

Before he could finish speaking, he was pushed away by Dalina.

Why bring up something you shouldn't talk about? This barbarian's words are really awful.

“Go cut some branches and make a carrying frame,” Delina said.

Gray shrugged and turned to get back to work.

Lorna said softly to Zhang Ji, "Don't worry, we mean no harm. We are from the Kenzie Adventurer Team. After we finish the mission, we will take you back to the city and send you to the church's almshouse."

After a while, there was still no reply.

"Well, not only is he paralyzed, but he's also mute, and maybe even deaf. No wonder he was left here. I just hope he's not an idiot," Gray said upon hearing the voice.

“Grey, shut up!” Kenzie snapped.

Gray shut his mouth, shrugged helplessly, and chopped at the wood with an axe, carving out the basic shape of a chair frame in a few strokes.

“Sir, if you can hear me, could you blink?” Gaia stepped forward and said.

Finally, Zhang Ji reacted.

He blinked.

This vessel has only just been formed, and even the most basic actions like moving a finger are difficult, let alone speaking.

Zhang Ji is still using [Boundless Energy] to gain the capital to move around, which is why he acts like a paralyzed person who can't speak.

Seeing Zhang Ji's reaction, Gaia said, "If you agree, we will provide you with humanitarian aid. After the mission is over, we will take you to the relief organization. If you agree, blink again."

Then Zhang Ji blinked again.

"Why are you even asking? Does he not want to rescue us if he doesn't even blink?" Mels said.

“We must respect human rights,” Gaia said.

Kenzie was speechless; in some ways, this player was a bit too obsessive.

Of course, he could understand.

Although Gaia still holds the title of nobleman, she is no longer a nobleman.

The things he held onto were the key to distinguishing himself from others; deep down, he still couldn't accept that he had "fallen" into becoming an adventurer.

“Now that everything’s ready, who’s going to carry him?” Gray asked.

Gray has made these wooden back supports for carrying people many times.

There will always be someone in the team who gets injured, and they can make one by simply cutting down a tree.

“I’ll do it,” said Dalina.

“You’re still carrying the blame!” Gray reminded him.

“You can carry it,” said Dalina. “It’s not heavy anyway.”

For a second-tier elite adventurer, the weight of a person, while not negligible, is indeed equivalent to an ordinary person carrying an extra three to five kilograms of weight.

“Let’s take turns carrying him,” Kenzie said. “I’ll go first, and you can help me tie him up, Dalina.”

Soon, Zhang Ji was carried on Kenji's back, with Kenji's sword right next to Zhang Ji's head.

The group continued their journey.

They walked and stopped frequently, and soon it was night.

By the campfire, Dalina brought a portion of the food she had prepared to Zhang Ji.

"Does it need to be fed?" Delina asked.

Zhang Ji said, "No need, thank you."

"You can speak?" Dalina asked in surprise.

"It wasn't possible before," Zhang Ji replied truthfully.

Then he slowly reached out and picked up the bowl of meat soup, taking small sips.

The movements were slow, but precise and stable.

The consciousness particles of this vessel are few, and the distance is too great, resulting in unstable synchronization of spacetime information, causing a large delay and a somewhat low efficiency in modifying information.

However, the initial accumulation has been completed, and within a day at most, the ability to move will be restored, and the snowball will quickly start rolling.

Delina didn't ask any further questions; everyone has their own secrets. She nodded and turned to leave. (End of Chapter)
