The Pseudo-Human Academy: Starting with a Bricklayer Personality

Su Qian was deeply shocked as she watched Xu Feng disappear into the night.

This guy really is a ghost!

Otherwise, how could he dare to go out at night?

Now Su Qian only has two options: one is to let Li Tian eat the food Xu Feng brought back.

Let's see if he's alright.

Another option is to venture out to find supplies, hoping that going out during the day won't trigger Xu Feng's killing rule.

Moreover, we have no idea how dangerous it is outside during the day; the risks are simply too great.

Su Qian swallowed hard. She still felt uneasy about risking her teammates' lives to test the rules.

However, she realized that if they explored the second path, the entire team would likely be wiped out.

She gritted her teeth and made up her mind; she couldn't let her hesitation lead to the entire team going to hell.

At this critical juncture, we cannot hesitate!

Not long after, Xu Feng reappeared in sight.

He not only carried back a large bundle of firewood, but also a struggling pheasant in his hand, and a lot of fresh wild vegetables slung over his arm.

Back in the open space, Xu Feng casually tossed the firewood onto the ground, and the brute force he displayed, far exceeding that of ordinary people, caused the ground to tremble slightly.

Immediately afterwards, he skillfully started a fire and boiled water.

The melodious whistling, combined with his current movements, exuded an indescribable eeriness and elegance.

The next second, he began to process the pheasant.

Bleeding, hair removal, gutting, stewing... every step was performed with unbelievable skill, the movements precise and elegant, leaving the surrounding crowd dumbfounded, even forgetting to breathe.

Everyone looked at each other, a bizarre thought simultaneously popping into their minds:

This guy's real identity is probably a top chef, right?

Three hours later, a wisp of steam, a mixture of the aroma of meat and instant noodles, rose gently into the night.

A pot of fragrant pheasant stew with instant noodles is finally ready.

The rich aroma instantly filled the air, making one's mouth water.

He turned to look at Su Qian, his eyes filled with a cautious probing, and a hint of childlike grievance, and spoke softly:

"Sister Qianqian, I...I'm so hungry, can I just have one bite?"

Su Qian looked conflicted. After thinking for a moment, she finally hardened her heart and said:

"Eat if you want! If you feel something is wrong, throw it up as soon as possible."

Li Tian was overjoyed and began to wolf down his food.

Su Qian was speechless for a moment, and couldn't help but remind her, "Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you."

"I believe Brother Xu Feng wouldn't harm me!" Li Tian replied confidently, his mouth greasy from eating, and continued slurping his instant noodles. He then took a big bite of chicken, thoroughly enjoying his meal.

In just a short while, he devoured most of the pot in a flash.

Full and satisfied, Li Tian patted his round belly and mumbled his thanks, "Thank you for the hospitality, Brother Xu Feng! This was so delicious!"

After saying that, he turned to Su Qian with a serious expression: "Sister Su Qian, this instant noodle seems to be fine. Would you like to have some?"

Su Qian forced a smile and gently shook her head: "I'm not hungry right now, I'll eat later."

In reality, she didn't let her guard down at all; she just wanted to observe Li Tian for a while to make sure he was really safe and sound.

After a satisfying meal, Li Tian lay down on the tatami mat, looking completely relaxed.

Time passed by, and soon more than half an hour had gone by.

Su Qian observed him silently for a long time, but he was lively and energetic, showing no signs of abnormality.

Su Qian groaned and pondered. If poison had really been administered, and if it was an acute poison, the reaction would occur within 5 to 20 minutes.

For ordinary toxic food, a reaction will occur within half an hour.

But Li Tian still looked perfectly fine, with a rosy complexion.

Could it be a slow-acting poison... or am I just overthinking it?

Maybe what Xu Feng brought back is actually edible?

Or is this just a tactic to lull them into a false sense of security?

Su Qian was extremely suspicious, and she still couldn't let her guard down.

No, no, I still can't trust Xu Feng.

This guy is really too weird; even Brother Long is lost outside.

Xu Feng not only went out at night unharmed, but also returned alive.

This... doesn't look like a human being at all, does it?

The depressed female ghost standing nearby was bewildered; she didn't understand why her older brother would voluntarily cook for the rats.

Could it be that my elder brother's actions have some unspeakable deeper meaning?

That must be it; there must be a deeper meaning behind what my elder brother did.

For some reason, the female ghost with depression was staring at Li Tian.

She always felt that if she defeated this guy, the next round she would be facing a team of three or four complete rookies.

The moment the thought of killing Li Tian crossed his mind, a chill ran down his spine.

Could it be a hallucination caused by not having opened a business for too long?

It must be so.

The female ghost comforted herself in her heart.

Before she knew it, it was bedtime. Su Qian looked at the people in the room and said:

"It's better if we don't sleep in separate rooms. After all, in horror movies, the people who get into trouble are often the ones who are alone. Also, when we get up to use the toilet, it's best to wake everyone up so we can go together. It's safer with more people around."

The female ghost was dumbfounded. This...this can't be right!

If we really do as Su Qian says, wouldn't that just invalidate her rules for killing?

The female ghost looked at her elder brother with tears welling up in her eyes, speechless and frozen in place.

Brother! It seems like our rules for killing have been broken. What should we do next?

Su Qian's caution perfectly circumvented the female ghost's killing patterns.

These newcomers are amazing!

This left the depressed female ghost somewhat at a loss.

Looking at Xu Feng's calm and composed demeanor, the depressed female ghost felt inexplicably at ease.

Yeah! Even the eldest brother wasn't panicking, so why should I be?

Even if the sky falls, your big brother will hold it up!

……

Su Qian is now the nominal captain of the team, and her suggestion has been adopted.

Xu Feng also admired Su Qian and felt that she had great potential.

With this level of caution, he might not even reach 2000 MMR on the ladder!

While he admired him, Xu Feng still had to protect his King Tang.

If I get banned, I might end up being relegated to a low-level dungeon with a rating of 2600 as a lowly soldier.

The group brought over some moldy bedding, made a makeshift bed on the tatami mat, and slept together.

The next morning.

Having been hungry all night, Su Qian and Deng Wenwen were even hungrier.

Su Qian originally planned to have Li Tian and Deng Wenwen keep an eye on Xu Feng the next morning before setting off to find food.

However, after waking up in the morning, Su Qian, who hadn't consumed any energy all day, felt a little dizzy.

She felt like she was having a hypoglycemic episode.
