The Heartthrob Guide: Dodder of S-Class Sentinels

Chapter 85 Come with us
Humans who lived here before?

Lin muttered, then thought of something and turned to look at Ronnie in the corner.

Ever since Renault's team came in, the young man has become unusually silent.

The room was full of high-level sentries, and the level difference made it impossible for him to integrate into this group. He could only sit alone in the corner, hugging his knees and staring blankly.

But he seemed to have gotten used to this situation. Others didn't care about him, and he didn't care about anyone.

Just as Lin Nan was secretly observing Ronnie, Renault, who was also paying attention to Lin Nan, also noticed him.

The gentle young nobleman had recovered from his injuries. He followed Lin Nan's gaze and looked at Ronnie, asking in a low voice, "Could you please introduce yourself, classmate? I don't think I've seen you before."

As soon as Renault said this, the discussion stopped and everyone looked at the person in the corner who had no sense of existence.

Huh? Is there another person like this here?
How come I didn’t feel it just now!
"Hello, I'm from Group C, Class F, Marine Combat Department. My name is Ronnie."

Class F is the weakest class.

Such a weak person made it to the finals!
This must be the person from Mr. Ireland's team.

But why are you with Lin?
Everyone in Renault's team was full of doubts, but they didn't show any of it on their faces. They just watched him quietly.

Ronnie seemed unused to being the center of conversation. He was so embarrassed he didn't know where to put his hands and feet, so he quietly stood up and prepared to go outside.

At this time, Lin Nan called him.

"Ronnie used to live in this forest. He might know those creatures with human heads and rat bodies that you just mentioned. I think you can ask him."

"Is that so?" Renault then looked him up and down.

"I... I'm not sure. I haven't been back since this place became a polluted area. But if I saw them, I should be able to recognize them."

"Do you remember the way back to your home?" Renault continued to ask.

"Of course I remember that."

"That's easy." After listening to this, Renault smoothed the slightly messy bangs on his forehead and continued, "If it is convenient for you two classmates, would you like to come with us? It takes a day and a half to get to the center of the forest by ordinary foot, but riding in our spirit body can at least shorten the time by half. In this way, you can also meet up with your team as soon as possible." He looked at Lin Nan and Ronnie gently, with a sincere invitation in his eyes.

Lin murmured, "That's no problem for me. Would your team mind, Ronnie?"

Ronnie was slightly stunned and said, "I'm not sure about this. I've only been on the team with them for three days, so I don't know the captain and the others very well."

The wild team was just squeezed together for mutual benefit. Urd and the others naturally wouldn't take too much care of the temporary joiners. Ronnie also realized this and consciously didn't try to fawn over them like the others. He went wherever they told him to go and did whatever they told him to do.

Before the final, the other four people were marked, but they, who were just there to make up the numbers, received nothing. They only received a simple instruction from the captain before the game started, which was to let them meet in the center of the forest.

But for these low-level sentinels, just such an order was so difficult that the teammate with the sparrow spirit body was eliminated as soon as he landed.

If he hadn't met Guide Lin during the day, he would have likely been killed the moment he landed. Thinking of this, Ronnie stopped worrying and offered, "I'll go with you. I'll take you back to the village. If those alien species you're talking about are truly human, they should all be there."

"That's great." Renault smiled. "Don't worry, classmate. If we encounter your team later, we will definitely not clash with them. The contaminated area is so dangerous, we should all work together."

After saying this, the gray-haired noble young man began to arrange the next matters for his team. "Let's get a good rest tonight and set out early tomorrow morning. It's too dangerous to move at night. Moving during the day should reduce the risk. As long as we find these monsters, the king beast will definitely not be far away."

"agree!"

"agree!"

……

After the group finished their discussion, they began to prepare to rest and discuss the arrangements for the night watch.

The most comfortable and safest position in the cave was naturally reserved for Lin Nan. As an important guide, Ronnie also received heavy protection from the Cheetah team.

The night gradually deepened, and the tranquility of the wilderness was broken by various subtle sounds.

Occasionally, you can hear the cries of unknown creatures coming from afar. The sounds are sometimes far away and sometimes near, which makes people feel creepy.

Lin Nan ate something casually and then lay down. The guide's five senses were very sharp. She felt extremely uncomfortable in such an environment. She always felt that there was a rustling sound around her. Each sound was like a thin and sharp hammer, knocking on her already tense nerves bit by bit, making her extremely uncomfortable.

never mind--

Anyway, there are official police officers protecting them, so the worst that can happen is that she withdraws from the competition.

It’s better to go to sleep quickly.

Thinking this way, Lin Nan closed her eyes. Perhaps she was really tired. Not long after, she fell into a deep sleep...

Lin Nan's camera was automatically turned off when she was giving Renault spiritual counseling, because the Guide Protection Regulations stipulate that spiritual counseling for guides is of the highest level of privacy, and the process is strictly prohibited from being recorded or disseminated to the public in any other form.

Later it was time for Lin Nan to rest, so the camera was no longer turned on.

Renault was guarding the entrance of the cave. He glanced at the closed miniature camera out of the corner of his eye, and then his eyes fell on the sleeping girl. In the dim light and shadow, her face looked particularly soft, which made Renault's thoughts drift away.
-
On the other side of the forest, Caesar and Lan Yin both seemed a little restless because they couldn't sense Lin Nan's breath for a long time.

They did not rest at night and continued to shuttle through the dark forest, occasionally killing one or two alien species that emerged from hidden corners. The long period of mental exhaustion made them both exhausted.

"What kind of monsters are these!?"

Caesar tore the behemoth in front of him into pieces again, and then watched it reassemble and heal, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

The first time he saw this kind of monster, its body was that of a giant rat, but its head was that of a human. After being chopped into pieces, its body could be reassembled. Some monsters could even eat the bodies of other monsters to make themselves stronger!
