The entire team continued to advance without stopping. It had been almost five hours since the team had set off. The entire team had not stopped at all. The leader, Jounin, had been walking at the front without any intention of stopping to rest.

Regardless of whether it was the storyline characters or the other four veterans, after walking for such a long time, they still had relaxed expressions on their faces. They did not look tired at all, and their breathing was not disordered at all. Their footsteps were also as light as before. The leading Jounin would occasionally send out a three-man team to the front or the surroundings to investigate the situation. The entire process was orderly.

The few veterans did not react at all. They only protected the Thousand-handed Rope Tree tightly. The leading Jounin seemed to know that he could not command the four of them, so he had greeted the four of them before they set off. He had not interacted with them since then, and he would only discuss with the Elite Jounin beside him if there was anything.

In contrast to the other storyline characters and a few veterans, the situation of the newbies was not optimistic. In the beginning, they followed him with a relaxed expression, but as time passed, the situation gradually changed.

It had only been half an hour since they set off, but the first thing that showed was that the breathing of the rookies in the team was getting heavier and heavier. The sweat on their foreheads kept pouring out, and it was getting more and more. Their footsteps also began to become messy, and their bodies were no longer straight.

Then, some people started to fall behind. The group of Samsara travelers were originally in the middle of the group, forming an irregular group. Now, the group had turned into a crooked line.

At this moment, the quality of an individual's physical fitness was revealed. Lin Luo's physical fitness was the worst, and he was almost at the back of the entire convoy. His body was slightly arched, and his breathing was heavy. At this moment, he was already using both his mouth and nose. His face was covered in sweat, and there were obvious sweat stains on several parts of his clothes. However, Lin Luo didn't dare to stop. He persevered and didn't dare to stop for even a moment because he knew that if he dared to stop and fell out of the group, what awaited him would be death. Moreover, it would be personally executed by the storyline character because at that time, his identity would change from " comrade " to a " traitor " who had escaped. Lin Luo had no doubt that he would be immediately executed by the storyline character on the spot.

Lin Luo felt that he should do something to solve the predicament he was currently facing. Lin Luo kept looking around to see if he could find a way to solve the problem.

Suddenly, Lin Luo noticed the carriage beside him. " If I can sit on the horse's back or climb onto the roof of the car..." Lin Luo saw the solution to the problem. Obviously, he wasn't the only smart person. Just as Lin Luo thought of this method, someone else acted one step ahead of him.

It turned out to be the young man dressed like a white-collar worker in the city. He was already exhausted. He was panting and sweating profusely. He had long been distanced from the goddess in his heart. At this moment, he did not have the mood to pay attention to whether he was a goddess or not. He felt that he was about to die. His feet did not seem to belong to him anymore.

In fact, this young man's physical fitness was only slightly better than Lin Luo's. As an urban white-collar worker, he rarely took the initiative to exercise his body. He usually sat in his office when he worked, and he often went out to drink and socialize with clients. Almost every time, he was drunk. He was the third last person to wake up, only a little earlier than Lin Luo and the little boy in pajamas.

Even though this white-collar worker had never read an Infinite Style novel and didn't know anything about the Creator's Space, his intuition told him that he couldn't fall behind. Otherwise, something bad would happen. Moreover, he was also a very smart person. Otherwise, he would not have become a high-level white-collar worker at such a young age. He was only one step away from becoming a supervisor and a high-level executive in the company.

He set his sights on the carriages, but he did not act rashly. He immediately thought of a plan. He needed someone to scout the way for him.

The white-collar worker looked around and soon chose a person. He smiled and walked towards the little boy in pajamas.

The reason why he chose this little boy was because he was still young, relatively innocent, and easy to fool. He was the best chess piece to pave the way for himself.

"Little Xin, are you tired?”The young man walked side by side with the little boy and asked amiably.

At this moment, this little fellow, who was called Xiao Xin by the white-collar workers, was slowly moving forward with his head lowered. His pajamas had long been soaked in his own sweat. He was only slightly behind Lin Luo, which was about the distance of a carriage.

Suddenly, she heard someone calling her name. She quickly looked up and said," It's Big Brother Zhao Hai. Is there anything you want to tell me? Aren't you tired too?"”

How did they know each other's names? It turned out that before the plot began, the muscular man had asked them to do a simple self-introduction, so they knew each other's names and some general information. At that time, Lin Luo was in a daze and did not notice this part.

When it was Lin Luo's turn to introduce himself, everyone noticed that he was absent-minded. A few veterans did not care about this, so they no longer paid attention to this 'trash'. The rookies did not dare to ask for trouble, so no one went up to remind him. After that, no one mentioned this matter to Lin Luo again. Therefore, Lin Luo didn't know anyone else except the bespectacled man Bai Sheng. The others treated Lin Luo the same way, but they probably didn't want to know Lin Luo, who was called 'trash' by the muscular man.

After a brief introduction, Zhao Hai knew that the boy was called Zhang Xin. Zhao Hai was a scheming person. He often dealt with clients, so he knew that an important prerequisite for building a good relationship with a person was to remember their name. Therefore, he remembered everyone's name in a short time, including the name of the veteran muscle man. Of course, other than the other three veterans, who had never said a word since the beginning, the muscular man only told the rookies to call the vampire captain. He did not mention anything else.

This time, in order to show their closeness, the white-collar worker Zhao Hai called the little boy 'Little Xin', in order to close the distance between them.

"I'm also very tired, but your brother Zhao Hai has a way to make everyone less tired.”

"What is it? Brother Zhao, tell me quickly." The little boy immediately perked up when he heard that. He didn't even think about it and hurriedly asked.

Zhao Hai saw that the little boy had taken the bait and did not waste any time. He immediately pointed at the carriage beside him and asked," What did you see?”

"A carriage." The little boy replied very naturally. Then, he seemed to have thought of something." Brother Zhao, you're not asking us to take the carriage, are you?”

"That's right." Seeing that Zhang Xin understood the meaning behind his words, Zhao Hai nodded his head affirmatively. Then, she tried to tempt him." Think about it. As long as you get on the carriage, you won't have to walk so hard.”

" Big Brother Zhao is right, but…" The little boy was not stupid. He had already thought about getting the carriage, but he did not dare to make a move because he had noticed that the others were just like him. They were exhausted, but no one had made a move. He did not dare to be the first to step out and risk his life, so he could only endure it.

Seeing that this little boy was not easy to fool, Zhao Hai could not help but feel anxious. He was already exhausted. He would look for someone else. They were all smart people, and they didn't have much confidence. They might even get rebuffed. He could only try his best to say in a calm tone," Don't worry, it's just-"

Before Zhao Hai could finish his sentence, he heard a loud shout," What are you doing? Hurry up and roll down. Then, there was the sound of an object falling to the ground.

Everyone in the convoy heard the sound and was shocked. They quickly turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound.
