Chapter 274 - 274: Daily Mission (1)



“Roar!” “Roar

A series of beast roars echoed in the night sky. Zhao Yu stopped in front of a large tree, his footsteps slightly hesitant.

“Where should I go now?”

After being driven out of the small town, Zhao Yu was worried that Meng Xian might change her mind and hunt him down.

However, shortly after entering the forest, his mind was filled with confusion.

Since he was unarmed, not even having a dagger to fight with the beasts inhabited in the forest.

Even though he had been active at night for more than a year, he still couldn’t compete with the beasts.

He was at a moderate distance from the town. Continuing forward might be dangerous.

“Let’s hide on top of the tree!”

After having his arms tied for a day, his circulation was restricted and his strength limited. He almost fell several times during his climbing.

He finally managed to get onto a thick branch. However, he didn’t dare climb too high, fearing that birds might snatch him away.

Sitting on the branch, Zhao Yu shifted a bit and broke off a few nearby branches to tie himself to the tree.

Thankfully, the trees in this world were tall and stout, enough to lie down on.

There were many protrusions on the branch which made it hard for Zhao Yu to find a comfortable spot for his head.

After adjusting a few times, he found a relatively comfortable position, albeit needing to tilt his head.

After a lot of fidgeting, Zhao Yu finally settled down, staring upwards. He could glimpse the sparse stars through the leaves.

“Why me?!”

Zhao Yu felt a sense of grievance. He wondered why, of all people, he was the one transported to this world.

Logically, he was part of the origin. Yet at this moment, he couldn’t stop feeling distressed for being alone.

Zhao Yu’s thoughts began to clear.

“I…”

“First and foremost, I am me, and then I am the copy…”

Zhao Yu wasn’t sure but he didn’t want to die. He was certain that if this body died, ‘he’ would be gone.

“If the original dies, how would I feel?!”

“If the first copy dies, would I be the first copy?”

“If both of them die, would I become the original Zhao Yu?”

“After fulfilling the last wish and resonating with the consciousness, would I still be me?”

Amid these soul-searching questions, Zhao Yu drifted into sleep.

Throughout the night, with the sounds of nocturnal creatures fighting and calling, Zhao Yu woke up and fell asleep intermittently. Tossing and turning, he finally made it to the next day.

It was dawn, and the forest was quiet.

Zhao Yu sat up and leaned against the trunk. He subconsciously looked toward the direction he came from and saw the roof of the town.

“As expected, I did not walk far…”

He felt a rush in his circulation and slowly stood up. From his vantage point, he could now see more of the town’s buildings.

He realized the significance of human settlements. Even from a distance, it felt less lonely.

At that moment, he was overwhelmed with emotions. While he felt the urge to leave, his eyes were fixated on the town, not willing to look away.

“I shouldn’t have let him go!”

Back in the underground shelter, Meng Xian looked at the scars on Xu Meng Lan’s body and became increasingly furious.

She initially thought Xu Meng Lan’s abuse was limited, but the extent of it was shocking.

Beyond the various whip marks and scars, what angered her the most was the two words branded on Xu Meng Lan’s buttocks.

“That scum, the next time I see him, I’ll kill him!”

Xu Meng Lan wanted to say something but realizing Zhao Yu might never return.

After freshening up, Meng Xian returned to the surface. The four men who slept above ground were already awake, guarding the entrance.

After exchanging pleasantries, Meng Xian gathered everyone and after expressing her intent to rebuild Meng Family’s Village, she started assigning tasks.

“All Zhen, Nana, check this building and the two adjacent ones. Clear out any threats…”

“Meng Lan, you and your two sisters, once they’re done, clean these three buildings in order…”

The underground shelter was limited in space and couldn’t accommodate many.

Meng Xian’s plan was to let the three sisters stay below while the enhanced individuals live in the houses above ground. The houses were ready.

“Pigeon, you have strong senses. Find a high vantage point nearby for surveillance. Just be careful not to be snatched by eagles…”

One of the men nodded in acknowledgment and left.

The genetic elixirs produced by the Reed Group, in addition to enhancing physical attributes, also enhanced their senses abilities.

Vision, hearing, smell, sensation, etc., all had their corresponding elixirs.

Compared to combat-oriented elixirs, these enhanced personal abilities minimally. Although the success rate was similar, the mortality rate was lower. Still, failure could result in varying side effects.

For example, the elixir that enhanced vision might cause blindness if it failed. However, some might undergo a genetic mutation that allows them to see beyond human capacity. However, this mutation is irreversible. Once formed, the person’s vision changes, resembling an animal’s or another creature’s eyes..
