You want me to play the Foehn wind? Are you kidding me?

Lu Feng walked ahead, recalling the main quest Fang Xing had mentioned.

Why don't I have this main quest? Is this game targeting me?

Lu Feng felt speechless and couldn't help but think.

"No wonder I was already standing in the desert when I was sent here by this national destiny game, while they were sent here a while later. Turns out they were captured and sent to do missions... and they even kept it from me."

"System, isn't the National Destiny Game going too far? It's isolating me."

[......]

"system?"

[......]

[Actually, I brought it to you. I took a spot, so you don't have the main quest.]

"?"

"Say it again?"

[I brought you in; I snatched a spot.]

"Wait... you're a system, how can you steal a spot in the National Fortune Game?"

[System privileges are higher than those of the National Destiny Game. The world you are currently in was not originally within the selection scope of the National Destiny Game. I anchored your consciousness to this body and forcibly pulled the National Destiny Game over.]

"You think you're that awesome? When did you do it?"

[Four seconds after the host transmigrated]

"Then why don't you say so?"

[You didn't ask.]

"You won't tell me unless I ask?"

[You're not asking why you're telling me?]

"666, you're awesome."

[......]

"So what is their mission?"

[Ask yourself (︶︿︶)_╭∩╮]

"What do you mean?"

"system?"

The system stopped responding to Lu Feng's question, and Lu Feng, not wanting to make a fool of himself, didn't ask any more questions.

Fang Xing and Han Ya struggled to keep up behind Lu Feng.

It's been 40 minutes already.

Fang Xing felt he had never been so tired in his life.

Fang Xing's thigh was bitten by Bu Liren. The wound stopped bleeding thanks to his own healing power, but with every step he took, the torn muscle felt like it was being twisted.

Han Ya leaned against his right side. The wound on her shoulder had stopped bleeding, but she couldn't lift her right arm at all.

He could only use his left hand to grab Fang Xing's clothes and use it to move forward.

Both of them walked slowly and heavily, each step feeling like pulling themselves out of a swamp.

What made Fang Xing feel even more tired was Lu Feng's "Hmm?".

In those forty minutes, Fang Xing analyzed that syllable at least three hundred times.

"Hmm" is a falling tone and usually indicates affirmation, agreement, or reluctant approval.

But it was followed by a question mark.

Adding a falling tone and a question mark is not grammatically correct in Chinese.

A syllable cannot be both a statement and a question.

Unless that "?" wasn't a question, but some kind of interjection he couldn't understand.

One syllable, one question mark.

Fang Xing's eyes stung a little.

He was a mid-stage sixth-tier ability user and the leader of the fifth squad in Tianhai City. He had carried out countless dangerous missions and had never backed down when facing Bu Liren.

But today, he was tormented by a single syllable for forty minutes.

He suddenly realized that those Bu Li people might not have been scared away by Lu Feng's power, but rather driven mad by the fact that they "couldn't understand what he was saying."

Han Ya's voice interrupted Fang Xing's thoughts; it was very soft, as if she was afraid the person in front of her would hear it.

"Fang Xing, my legs... I can't walk anymore."

Fang Xing looked down.

Han Ya's face was as white as paper, her forehead was covered in cold sweat, and there was a cut on her lip that she had bitten herself.

Her right leg was trembling.

Her legs weren't injured; she was just exhausted.

Hungry, without water for a long time, and suffering from excessive blood loss and prolonged walking, her body had reached its limit.

Fang Xing stopped and helped Han Ya to a stop.

His thigh was also in pain. With each step he stopped, the tearing sensation would lessen a little, but it would hurt more when he took another step.

He looked at Lu Feng's back in front of him, hesitated for a moment, but still didn't call out to him.

But Lu Feng in front seemed to have heard it.

He stopped walking forward, but he didn't turn around. He just found a place to sit down.

Fang Xing was a little surprised to see this; Fen Feng had actually stopped to wait for them.

This left both of them with some inexplicable emotions, a feeling that was stuck in their chests.

Fang Xing helped Han Ya sit down on the ground with a thud, and the two of them looked at Lu Feng's back in front.

Han Ya couldn't help but speak softly first.

"Fang Xing, he doesn't seem... as cold and heartless as he appears, does he?"

"Yeah, I guess so. I don't know either. He usually doesn't say a word, so who can guess for sure? Besides, he's not someone we can discuss right now."

After Fang Xing finished speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief, treated his wounds again, ate something, and finally lay down directly on the dark red ground.

"Han Ya, take advantage of this time to rest a bit more, otherwise you won't be able to keep up later."

After Fang Xing finished speaking, he immediately closed his eyes to rest.

Seeing that Fang Xing was already like this, Han Ya ate something, treated her wounds, and then lay down on the ground and closed her eyes, just like Fang Xing.

......

Lu Feng also noticed Fang Xing and Han Ya's condition behind him and deliberately stopped to wait for them.

But the main thing is that he's curious about what the main quest is. He can't let them really die, or who will he go looking for?

Moreover, they did not encounter any other chosen ones from other countries along the way.

I wonder if the chosen ones from all countries are on this planet.

In any case, according to Lu Feng's perception, there was no sign of any living creature nearby.

Yes, there wasn't a trace of life, not even a single insect.

Looking at the endless plains, if we just keep walking slowly like this, I don't know when we'll encounter a large nest of the Bu Li people.

It's impossible to simply discard that 1% of the role-playing aspect.

Lu Feng thought about it and made a decision.

That means letting Fang Xing and the others recover from their injuries first, and then going out to find the nest themselves.

As for why they need to wait for Fang Xing and Han Ya to recover from their injuries...

I have a personal reason for asking, and I also have some questions about the main quest. I don't know if I can ask the character I'm playing, Fenfeng, directly. I'd rather be conservative and see if they'll just tell me directly.

Just as Lu Feng was pondering.

All of India's chosen ones are dead.

[Penalty: National Fortune Value -1, Spiritual Energy Concentration -3%, Awakening Probability -5%]

Lu Feng raised an eyebrow.

"The first country to be eliminated has appeared."

......

【All the chosen ones of India are dead】This announcement was thrown into the live broadcast rooms of various countries on Earth like a red-hot piece of iron.

It wasn't just the Dragon Kingdom that received this message; it was all the countries, and all the people, who saw this message appear at the same instant.

The words are red, but not bright red; they are a dark, muted red, like dried blood.

The text lingered on the screen for five seconds before slowly disappearing, replaced by a display of changes in the national fortune value of India...

In those five seconds, almost all the comments in the live stream room of China turned to India.

"The entire Indian army... is dead? All three of them are dead?"

"Weren't there three people? One early-stage sixth rank and two early-stage fifth rank. This lineup isn't considered strong in our Dragon Kingdom, but it's probably above average globally, right? How could they all be wiped out?"
