Chapter 282: Chapter 282: Entering the City (Please Favorite, Subscribe, and Vote for Monthly Tickets)

When He Ao woke up again, he found himself lying on a stretcher bed, surrounded by tent fabric fluttering in the breeze.

This was his own tent.

He pulled back the small curtain by the tent, and a blinding brilliance engulfed his eyes for a moment.

Looking at the sun, it should have been one or two in the afternoon now.

As an experienced hunter, learning to tell the approximate time by the sunlight and the position of the sun was a basic skill.

He was still wearing the tattered clothes from yesterday. Among the more than a hundred people in the camp, only one or two knew a bit about treating colds and fevers.

So they didn’t dare to touch He Ao’s wounds, fearing they might cause some accidents.

In fact, there used to be several doctors capable of performing surgery in the camp, but they were all scattered during the Bitter Monkey attack.

In such dangerous wilderness, it was uncertain if they could survive.

He Ao sat up from the bed and touched the wound.

The wound from last night had already scabbed over, with large chunks of scabs clinging to his skin and clothes.

He Ao gently tore it off, removing a large piece of crimson scab and revealing the delicate skin beneath.

The recovery time this time seemed shorter than before, and he wondered if it was because of the promotion.

He Ao grabbed the corner of his clothes and slowly applied force.

With faint sounds, his entire shirt and the scabs that were attached to the shirt were slowly torn off, exposing his muscular torso and sturdy arms.

He Ao tossed the clothes mixed with scabs to the side, ripped off his pants, found a pair of shorts inside the tent to slip on, and got off the stretcher.

The midday sun was glaringly bright, with a few surviving children trying to spear fish by the river.

He Ao found a sharpened stick nearby, jumped into the river, and while washing off the remaining scabs, he thrust the stick into the water.

It wasn’t long before he had speared a whole stick’s worth of fish, then he slowly emerged from the river, passing by the group of children.

"Leader?!"

Penny was among the children spearing fish, she raised her harpoon, excitedly shouting at He Ao.

"Mhm."

He Ao nodded gently at her, planted the fish-filled harpoon into the ground, making it stand erect, and then walked back to his own tent.

"Wow!!!"

Behind him came the chirping of a group of children and Penny around the harpoon.

After returning to his tent, He Ao dried off his body and casually put on a rather loose leather coat.

It was February, still winter, but the temperature was not so low anymore.

Of course, with He Ao’s physical condition, he didn’t need to keep warm; the leather coat was mainly for appearance.

The leader must always maintain vigor and health; this is what gives people in dire straits a pillar to rely on.

After dressing, He Ao opened his personal attribute panel.

[He Ao (Ronald)]

[Authority Level: Ordinary Player]

[Physical Condition: 247 (543)]

[Skills: Talent Sequences 272: Super Memory (Soul Binding) (D-level), Basic Firearms Proficiency (Partial Soul), Talent Sequences 40: Magician (D-level) (Not Usable)]

[Mechanical Modification: None]

[Martial Arts: Essence Refinement and Qi Transformation (D-level) (Not Usable)]

[Character Skills: Talent Sequences 99: Hunter (C-level)]

A physical condition of 543, over half a thousand.

This was the highest physical condition He Ao had seen, and it was still just after his promotion.

But a regular C-level individual just promoted would probably not be this strong.

After all, not everyone could use the methods of Martial Arts like He Ao to improve the efficiency of energy utilization.

And Ronald himself was among the stronger ones in D-level, with a much higher base.

As He Ao was looking at his physical condition, a figure rushed into the tent, looking at He Ao with some excitement,

"Leader, are you all right?"

"Mhm."

He Ao nodded slightly.

The person who arrived was none other than the current deputy leader, Wade.

He Ao had estimated that Wade would probably come to see him around this time. The camp itself wasn’t large, and after he took a walk around, it would be very easy for Wade to spot him. Even if Wade didn´t see him, someone would make a point to remind him.

And there was only one matter that would bring Wade to him at this time.

Wade briefly suppressed his excitement, calming himself down, and then said to He Ao in a soft voice,

"The team captains are waiting for your opinion, after all, we’ve been stationed here for several days now."

Over twenty vehicles and more than a hundred people were too much for Ronald to command on his own.

Therefore, he divided everyone into eight small teams according to the vehicles they belonged to. Each team captain was responsible for a few vehicles under his command, while Ronald and Wade took charge of four teams each, establishing a simple organizational management system.

"Alright, let them come over."

He Ao nodded slightly.

······

After a while, several team captains had arrived.

He Ao’s tent couldn’t fit so many people, so everyone sat on the ground right outside the tent door, forming a circle.

The last time so many people had held a meeting together was the day before yesterday when Ronald was preparing to take the risk to advance.

The atmosphere was very oppressive back then, as everyone was filled with worry for the future.

Because everyone knew that if Ronald failed to advance, relying on their highest battle power of E-level, they would be absolutely incapable of withstanding the Bitter Monkey. Death awaited them.

But if Ronald didn’t advance, even as a D-level, he still wouldn’t be able to hold off the Bitter Monkey, and the outcome would be a dead end either way.

At that time, they had reached a crossroads of fate and had to risk everything on one bet.

But now the ’Leader’ had not only returned from his advancement but had also killed the Bitter Monkey. The huge mountain that was pressing down on them dissipated in an instant, and each person’s face revealed a relaxed expression.

And the main topic of this meeting was where they should head next.

Due to the chase by the Bitter Monkey, they had veered far off their original route.

They had initially chosen a direction opposite to Dawn City and should have been getting further and further away from Dawn City in theory.

But now, lifting their heads, they could already see the tall walls of Dawn City.

If they wanted to continue with the original plan, they would have to return the way they came, passing through the original campsite to reach the planned new campsite location.

But according to previous calculations, that A-level exotic beast should now be close to where their original camp was situated. Going back could mean running directly into the A-level exotic beast, which would be even more hopeless than encountering the Bitter Monkey.

Yet, not moving forward also posed a problem, as the surrounding environment wasn’t suitable for setting up camp for an extended period.

The alternative site that was suitable for establishing a campsite would take even longer to reach than returning the original way, and it was uncertain whether it was already occupied by others.

He Ao didn’t speak but allowed the team captains to freely express their opinions.

Some thought they should return the original way to the planned new campsite location.

Some believed they should head for the backup location.

Some thought they should set up camp right there and wait. If by chance the A-level exotic beast left after a while, they could go back and rebuild their camp at the original site.

And some thought that since the predicted path of the A-level exotic beast included the area around Dawn City, they could also encounter the A-level exotic beast where they were, making it a sitting duck scenario.

The eight team captains debated, and the discussion eventually escalated into a brawl.

A few who were originally trying to break up the fight ended up joining in after trying to reconcile the situation.

Several people got physically heated in the altercation.

Eventually, Wade couldn’t take it anymore, charged in, separated the people, and gave each one a good beating, making them sit back down in their original places.

Discussions among wanderers always involved a physical element of persuasion.

He Ao, who possessed Ronald’s memories, was no longer surprised by this.

Wade became the deputy leader not because of his strong abilities but because he could beat everyone except Ronald.

After being thrashed by Wade, everyone sat down with bruised faces, finally quieting down.

They all turned to look at He Ao, waiting for him to make a decision.

But He Ao just glanced at everyone and looked up into the distance.

A grand city loomed in the distance, partly hidden from view.

He softly said,

"Enter the city."
