In order to prevent another encounter, after a simple vote, the traverser training team chose to retreat hundreds of meters back to camp, putting a distance from the dangerous edge of the forest.
With this buffer zone with a wide field of vision, any disturbances can be detected in advance, and at least, sneak attacks can be avoided to the greatest extent.
Dealing with post-war casualties is a must.
Although no one knew the two dead time-travelers, after all, we all came from the same world, and there was still a basic sense of compatriots, so someone proposed to hold a funeral for these two people on the spot.
This proposal was quickly passed unanimously without any hindrance.
After the simple funeral ceremony, the sky was getting a little dark, and the travelers began to set up tents and prepare to sleep outdoors tonight.
Due to the previous battle, even though the woods were just a few hundred meters ahead, no one dared to cut down trees and collect firewood. The huge camp was deserted, and not even a bonfire could be seen.
"Asuna, Yanye, you two, don't rush to set up the tent yet, pick up the horse and follow me."
Seeing Luo Jie walking toward the woods in the distance with his knife in hand, Asuna immediately understood that he was going to collect dry firewood, and couldn't help but worry: "Night Dire Lord, why don't you go? It's too dangerous."
Gui Yanye also echoed in a weak tone: "Yeah, it's almost dark now. Let's eat some dry food here and we can deal with it all night..."
"It's just because it's going to be dark soon, so there must be a fire."
In his previous life, Luo Jie had led a team and knew when democracy could be used and when dictatorship was necessary, so this time there was a hint of unquestionable severity in his tone.
Fortunately, neither of the two girls have the temperament of a spoiled young lady. Having received modern education, they more or less know a little bit of the most basic knowledge of survival in the wild. They don't have any petty tempers and consciously take off their horses.
He picked up his luggage, led the horse and followed Luo Jie.
Luo Jie's movements quickly attracted the attention of other time-travelers. However, there were many people who were interested, but few actually dared to follow him.
But what Luo Jie didn't expect was that among the time-travelers who followed them to collect firewood, he actually saw the figure of Ito Makoto.
"Hi! Classmate Gui Yanye, we meet again!"
Ito Makoto was determined to be evil, and after seeing Gui Yanye, he took the initiative to run up to say hello. The frightened Gui Yanye immediately hid behind Asuna like a frightened little rabbit.
"What are you doing here again?" Luo Jie asked angrily.
"Ah, brother, don't get me wrong, I just saw classmate Gui Yanye here and came over to say hello."
Ito Makoto raised his hand reflexively and took two steps back with a smile on his face.
A very sensible young man.
"Cheng, is this an acquaintance of yours?"
While talking, a red-haired young man with a mature uncle's face walked over, accompanied by a blue-haired girl, and greeted Luo Jie and others familiarly: "Hello,
I am the captain of the Fenglinhuoshan team, Klein...well, this is Xing Cheng. I am a member of my team. I haven’t brought you any trouble, have I?”
"Klein".
The first player to talk to the protagonist Kirito in the original work has a kind of cynicism and boldness like a down-and-out samurai. Although he doesn't have many roles, compared with other characters, he is definitely the number one male.
A supporting role.
"fortunate".
The girl who appears in the memories of the protagonist of the original side story has a timid and timid personality. She was once the protagonist Kirito's first love in the game. Later, due to a strategy error, she died in a trap room in a certain maze.
Well, if Luo Jie remembers correctly, the occupation of this delicate girl with the tear mole at the corner of her eye in the original work seems to be the legendary "Lancer" who has been lucky since ancient times.
Is this the author's malice or a coincidence?
"No, although your team member and my friend had a little misunderstanding before, it was not a big deal."
Luo Jie can be honest with Ito Makoto, but he still has to give some face to the first male supporting actor in the original work.
After all, according to the setting in the original work, the red-haired "Klein" was a very powerful swordsman in the later period. He might be useful in capturing the opponent when attacking high-level people in the future. In short, it is always better to build a good relationship first.
That's right.
"Haha, it's fine..." "Klein" laughed heartily and changed the topic, and took the initiative to chat with Luo Jie: "Are you going to collect firewood to make a fire? How about we two teams work together?
Fortunately, we have each other to take care of."
Luo Jie pondered for a moment and then nodded. He had never thought about adding more team members, but there was no problem with just cooperation.
Perhaps because the previous wild boar ladies were busy reproducing their populations at the moment, the group of people hardly encountered any harassment during the process of collecting firewood.
Occasionally, two long-eared rabbits popped out of the bushes out of curiosity, but Ito Makoto, who was in charge of guarding them, looked at them with a nervous look and immediately fertilized them and ran away.
While Asuna and Gui Yanye were busy collecting firewood, Luo Jie went into the woods carrying the Quetzalcoatl's Crossbow, and soon came back carrying a few plump pheasants.
Yes, it's a pheasant, not a chicken chick.
In this magically modified version of the SAO world, beasts and Warcraft are two completely different species.
Without the existence of these beasts at the bottom of the food chain, Luo Jie simply could not imagine how people in this world would solve the problem of eating meat.
Not long after, two bright bonfires rose in the traverser's camp. The dancing firelight not only brought light, but also slightly dispelled the haze caused by the death of their companions that shrouded everyone's hearts.
One after another, people began to go to the woods to collect dry firewood, and bonfires were lit one after another in the camp.
With fire, there are naturally prerequisites for cooking.
I have mentioned before that Luo Jie is a very particular person about eating.
The so-called attention here refers to the attitude towards eating itself.
In his opinion, those who just nibble on some dry food can only be regarded as eating, and cannot be regarded as a real meal at all.
Under the surprised and unexpected looks of Asuna and Gui Yanye, Luo Jie skillfully plucked the pheasant and disemboweled it, cleaned it repeatedly with the [Water Gathering Technique], and cut it into small pieces, along with a small amount of mushrooms that he had picked up before.
and wild vegetables, all poured into [Little Master’s wok].
The effect of the special item worth 100,000 points cannot be overshadowed. Although Luo Jie only added salt and a small amount of spices, the stewed chicken was still fragrant and tender, and full of the original umami flavor unique to wild ingredients.
The smell of it is mouth-watering.
Please give me a vote, don’t keep tearing and tearing, it’s so graphic that my heart can’t bear it...
