Players complained that this NPC killed people without blinking an eye

Chapter 136 Man, I'm Not That Fragile

......

After walking for more than ten minutes, apart from the broken walls and a large number of corpses everywhere, Gu Yeming only saw some players running away in a hurry.

There were still a few strange monsters left, but he dealt with them all easily. The extra few thousand experience points he gained were just a drop in the bucket.

Just as Gu Yeming was thinking about where he could go to gain some experience, the next second he saw Chris leaning against a rock not far away.

Chris?

Gu Yeming raised his brows slightly and walked over slowly.

When he walked to the side, he found that Chris had his head down, his body covered in blood, but his limbs were still intact, probably due to his super regenerative recovery properties.

It seems that he had a tough battle not long ago...

After hearing footsteps nearby, Chris slowly raised his head to investigate. After seeing that the person was Gu Yeming, he opened his bloodshot eyes and murmured, "Dude?"

"It's me." Gu Yeming nodded in response.

Hearing this, Chris seemed to have finally found someone to talk to. Tears gradually welled up in his eyes and he said in a hoarse voice: "Fiona... Wang Dazhu is dead."

"The boss lady is dead too."

After hearing this, Gu Yeming's expression did not change at all. He had already guessed it.

For the resentful soul to suddenly appear here, it must have sneaked in from the sewer.

Since he sneaked in through the sewer, he must have passed by the gathering place of Chris and the others.

So... there will definitely be a conflict between the two sides, and since their strength cannot match that of the Ghostly Soul, they can only watch the other side being slaughtered.

When disaster strikes, all the weak can do is pray.

It's a pity, if prayer worked, so many people wouldn't have died.

Seeing that Gu Yeming didn't speak, Chris didn't say anything, but just murmured in a low voice: "Me, Khertz, and Dize are still alive. Now there are only three of us left."

"Man, it's great that you're alive too, I thought I had to lose another friend."

"With Fiona and Wang Dazhu dead, you are the only friends I have left in the world."

"After this disaster, let's just find a job and not worry about the company or anything else. I'm really worried that one of you will leave again."

Having said that, Chris raised his head slightly. He stared into Gu Yeming's indifferent eyes, as if he wanted to see something from them.

However, to his disappointment, Gu Yeming's expression remained unchanged, his eyes were as calm as water, without any fluctuations.

He couldn't guess what Gu Yeming was thinking.

Suddenly, tears flowed from his right eye, dripping onto the ground. This change caught him off guard.

Gu Yeming naturally noticed this. He looked at Chris's right eye and immediately understood.

It was Chris's sister, Klina, crying.

"Sorry, man, I made you laugh." Chris barely raised his lips and said, "My sister is not very good at controlling her emotions, please forgive me."

Gu Yeming looked at him silently without saying anything. To be honest, he didn't know how to comfort Chris and Klina in front of him.

Cheer up, there will definitely be hope in the future?

Such lies will only annoy people if you say them.

It's better to remain silent and let them calm down.

Thinking of this, Gu Yeming sighed slightly, took out a special life recovery potion and anti-fatigue potion from the system backpack, and then handed them to Chris.

"Drink it and recover from your injuries first."

"Yeah..." Chris looked at the blood scars all over his body and did not refuse. After taking the two bottles of potion, he gulped them down without thinking.

Seeing Chris's physical strength fully recovered from his injuries, Gu Yeming stopped talking about this and changed the subject to ask, "In that case, what about Khertz and Dize?"

"They went to other places to look for food." Chris looked much better after recovering, but he was still very depressed. He said, "Everywhere is in chaos now, and the authorities can't divert their attention to distributing food to civilians. Their attention is basically on those monsters."

"In order to protect ourselves, we can only find food by ourselves..."

"Is that so?" Gu Yeming nodded, and then said, "Where do you want to go next?"

"What?" Chris was stunned when he heard this. He didn't understand what Gu Yeming meant.

"I said..." Gu Yeming explained: "Although there is a temporary ceasefire here, sooner or later, chaos will break out again."

"It's not a good idea to stay here all the time. If there's somewhere you want to go, I can escort you there."

escort?

Hearing this, Chris suddenly felt a little unreal.

He savored the word carefully and was stunned for a moment.

He opened his mouth, looked up at Gu Yeming, and said in disbelief: "Dude...did you say anything wrong? You said you wanted to escort me?"

"Yes." Gu Yeming nodded affirmatively.

With his current strength, he can move around easily as long as he doesn't encounter anyone at level A or above.

As long as he was careful and avoided areas of intense fighting, he could indeed escort Chris to some safe place.

After hearing the affirmation, Chris's eyes suddenly showed some confusion.

How long has it been since then...it seems that Gu Yeming's strength has increased a little?

Didn't you expect that he would become the object of protection?

It’s just… unreal.

Seeing Chris who had not spoken yet, Gu Yeming was about to remind him when Chris said, "In that case, buddy, take me to the bakery."

bakery?

Hearing this, Gu Yeming frowned slightly and said, "Are you sure? There are many monsters wandering over there. Although I have killed many of them, there may still be some high-level weird monsters over there."

"If I get entangled, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you."

Hearing this, Chris smiled dumbly, shook his head, and chuckled: "Man, are you underestimating me a little too much now?"

"I admit that you are much stronger now, but I am not a pushover."

Having said that, Chris stared closely into Gu Yeming's eyes, as if explaining something.

Looking at Chris's determined eyes, Gu Yeming shook his head and stopped trying to persuade him. He just said casually, "Let me make it clear first, the bakery has suffered considerable damage and is expected to collapse soon."

"You have to be mentally prepared."

"Ha, man." Chris laughed, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said, "I'm not that fragile yet, just go ahead."

Although he looked very optimistic on the surface, Gu Ye knew that Chris was just pretending and trying to hold himself together.

However, since Chris said so, Gu Yeming naturally didn't say anything more. He nodded and agreed.

Suddenly, Chris seemed to have thought of something. He slapped his forehead and said quickly, "Oh, I almost forgot about those two guys, Khertz and Ozawa."

"If I just left like that, they would be really worried."

"Wait a moment, I'll carve something on the stone and leave a message."

After saying that, he stretched out a claw and carved something on the stone.

A minute later, Chris retracted his claws and said to Gu Yeming with a grin, "That's good. Let's go to the bakery."

After saying that, he casually walked past Gu Yeming and headed forward, as if nothing was different from usual.

Gu Yeming looked at the words engraved on the stone, shook his head helplessly, and followed Chris.

Looking at Chris's back, Gu Yeming couldn't help but recall the previous scenes.

After the death of Fiona and Wang Dazhu, and after this experience, I'm afraid something will change for Chris.

After experiencing some major disasters, people will definitely undergo some changes.

I just wonder…what will become of Chris in the future?

Thinking of this, Gu Yeming sighed slightly without leaving a trace, and he couldn't help but ask himself:

It is impossible for a person to always have smooth sailing. Even if he has experienced various versions of his previous life, he will encounter desperate situations one day.

By then, when facing death, will he be able to be as calm as he is today?

No...that's not right.

Gu Yeming's eyes narrowed, and he immediately refuted the idea in his mind. He clenched his fists, as if he had made a decision.

He can't die...and will never die.

He hasn't even seen the scenery standing at the top, how could he fall down so easily?

No matter what, he had to climb up!

Otherwise...all the struggle and efforts over this time will be wasted!

Isn't it just to become stronger every time you are on the verge of life and death?!

After figuring this out, Gu Yeming swept away his dejection and became completely refreshed!

Even Chris, who was walking in front, seemed to have sensed something. He looked back at Gu Yeming with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

In his perception, Gu Yeming behind him seemed to have undergone some miraculous changes, and a weak aura was slowly emanating from him.

Chris noticed this but didn't say anything. He just kept it in his heart, his thoughts floating slowly.

From the first time he met Gu Yeming, he realized that Gu Yeming was a very purposeful person who would never disrupt his plans because of trivial matters, nor would he change his mind because of anyone.

People like him will never stop or give up halfway until they achieve their goal.
