Who told you I am an NPC

Chapter : 135

When Rowena said this, Demetrius had already taken out his magic staff. He tilted his head to look at Yan Yunqing, waiting for him to make a decision.

Yan Yunqing didn't care. "Either way is fine with me. The main thing is, if we leave Demetrius and William behind, can our camp really be set up?"

Demetrius: .

William: ?

William puffed up his cheeks angrily: "You don't trust me?"

Yan Yunqing looked at him with an expression that said, 'What do you think?', and said very tolerantly: "Then tell me, have you ever done this kind of work before? Do you know how to set up a camp? Where to choose a spot, and where is more convenient?"

William fell silent.

He had indeed lived a hard life when he was young, but his mother had protected him well.

In addition, there were kind neighbors who helped from time to time, and even Alice was a precocious little girl. William had really never done this kind of work.

He probably didn't even know how to start a fire, after all, he wasn't a fire-based mage like Alice.

Yan Yunqing spread his hands, his meaning was clear: You're a little prince, don't try to be strong. Learn it properly first.

As for Demetrius? Yan Yunqing saw Demetrius cooking in the dormitory every day and knew that his basic survival skills should not be bad, but his introverted personality and William really couldn't get along.

William was already bad at these chores. Pairing him with a silent person, maybe by the time Yan Yunqing returned, the two would have already completely fallen out.

Well, William would have fallen out unilaterally, and Demetrius would still have that silent 'I don't know anything' look.

At this time, pairing the experienced Rowena with William would perfectly solve this problem.

Demetrius: .

After Yan Yunqing's reminder, Rowena also understood what Yan Yunqing was worried about. After a moment of hesitation, she still followed Yan Yunqing's original arrangement.

"Alright, then I'll stay with William. You two be careful. If you encounter danger, run straight back. I'll be ready to support you at any time."

"Don't worry, Demetrius and I are not that weak." Yan Yunqing waved his hand.

Needless to say about himself, fighting monsters above his level was a piece of cake. And Demetrius's level was not low either.

If the two of them encountered a demonic beast together, it was really hard to say which side would be in more danger.

Demetrius silently followed behind Yan Yunqing.

After walking a little further, Yan Yunqing didn't act big. He took out the long-dusty [Bow and Arrow·Jade Shadow] from his backpack.

This was a weapon he had drawn from the Sunset Village instance. He hadn't used it since killing Feu in Bartovita.

This environment was just right for it now.

Demetrius's gaze lingered on the bow for a while. Yan Yunqing thought he would ask something, but he silently turned his gaze away, continuing to maintain his 'silence is golden' persona.

This guy really doesn't have any flaws!

Yan Yunqing sighed and once again gave up on the idea of probing Demetrius.

So far, the two Demetriuses had not shown any similarities, except that their names were both displayed as 'Demetrius' in Yan Yunqing's game system.

Yan Yunqing was beginning to suspect that there was a bug in the system.

After all, Demetrius was really not a common name. If it were Jack, Tom, Edward, or something like that, Yan Yunqing could convince himself that it was just a coincidence of names.

But a complex syllable like Demetrius, it didn't sound like a name that was easy to coincide with!

It was like on Blue Star, there were Li Leis and Han Meimeis everywhere, but there was definitely only one Niohuru Zhenhuan.

He still felt that even if these two Demetriuses were not the same person, they definitely had a close relationship.

And the black-robed man who called that 'Demetrius' young master was clearly not a good person.

Yan Yunqing had also heard them say something about the plan proceeding as usual, which made him a little concerned.

No matter what this plan was, it couldn't be a good one. It might even affect him, so Yan Yunqing couldn't not care.

Demetrius was the first to see a Kami beast squatting in the distance, nibbling on the leaves of a bush. Its round eyes rolled around, vigilantly watching the surroundings.

This Kami beast was the very topic of the first practical magic spell test Yan Yunqing had taken at Sigret Academy.

This kind of small animal had a very strong reproductive ability and tasted very good. It was an indispensable source of meat on the tables of the Ailman people.

Demetrius stared at the Kami beast, extended his magic staff, and was about to repeat his old trick, tying the Kami beast with a water rope just like he had done to the poison-hook eagle.

Who knew that the Kami beast was very vigilant? Hearing the footsteps of Yan Yunqing and Demetrius approaching, it immediately stopped chewing on the leaves, looked back, and was about to run.

Demetrius's water rope missed, and the Kami beast leaped a few meters away in a few bounds. Yan Yunqing injected mana and drew the string of Jade Shadow.

A green arrow shadow flew past with a 'swish', passing through countless bushes and accurately hitting the Kami beast's back.

The small Kami beast didn't even let out a cry before it fell to the ground. There was only a bloody hole through its body, but no arrow was to be seen.

Just like the water arrows condensed from Demetrius's water element, the arrows condensed by Jade Shadow were also composed of elements and would disappear after hitting an enemy.

Yan Yunqing released the hand that was pulling the string and shook the bow in his hand at Demetrius, "You let me win."

Demetrius pursed his lips. Then, as if he was competing with Yan Yunqing, the two of them competed to see who could hunt more prey. If Yan Yunqing hunted a rabbit, Demetrius would tie up a Lulu Pig.

In more than half an hour, the prey the two of them had hunted was already half a person tall.

For a time, this small patch of forest was 'flowing with rivers of blood'. In the end, they couldn't even find many small animals, probably scared away by the killing intent here.

Yan Yunqing silently looked at the half-person-high pile of prey, "Did we really hunt so much prey?"

Demetrius touched his nose and didn't speak, guiltily looking away.

Yan Yunqing sighed faintly. He took out a dagger from his backpack and used the butchering skill on a deer at the top.

After a dozen seconds of channeling, the original deer was left with only a few pieces of venison, a complete deerskin, and a pair of antlers.

Demetrius's eyes lit up. Yan Yunqing was already used to this operation and didn't expect that this scene would look a bit strange in the eyes of other NPCs.

After all, Lilian had seen the whole process of him butchering and hadn't made any comments. She was very calm, as if she was very used to this operation.

Yan Yunqing did the same, butchering all the remaining prey. The system took more than half of the prey, leaving only a few of the best pieces of meat neatly piled there.

The processed meat could be put into the backpack. Because Yan Yunqing's backpack had separate slots, he didn't have to worry about the meat contaminating other items in the backpack.

Yan Yunqing put everything away. When he turned his head, he found Demetrius staring at him with bright eyes.

"What's wrong?" Yan Yunqing clapped his hands and motioned for Demetrius to get him a ball of water with his eyes.

"Nothing."

Demetrius acted with great tacit understanding. A ball of pure water condensed in front of Yan Yunqing.

Yan Yunqing put his hands in and rubbed them. After feeling that all the bloodstains on his hands were cleaned, he pulled his hands back.

Demetrius waved his magic staff, and the ball of water splashed on the ground, washing away the bloody smell left by the prey.

Yan Yunqing glanced at it, "We have to leave here quickly. The smell of blood might attract a lot of demonic beasts."

They hadn't encountered any demonic beasts on their hunt. They were either demonic beasts or common small animals, all edible. As a result, they lost control for a moment and hunted a pile of prey.

Fortunately, his backpack was static, so the meat wouldn't spoil even if it was kept in it for a long time. But the slots in his backpack were really running out.

These different kinds of meat couldn't be stacked in the same slot, which troubled Yan Yunqing a bit.

Maybe I should go back and see if there are any equipment with similar functions to the space bracelet?

Maybe it can also be merged with my backpack. Even one more slot would be good!

I need to get on good terms with the Alchemy Society when I get back...

Yan Yunqing's wrist was suddenly grabbed. Yan Yunqing, who was still immersed in his thoughts, instantly came back to his senses and heard Demetrius lower his voice and say: "There's something!"

Yan Yunqing became vigilant, his gaze sweeping around, his ears twitching slightly, catching the subtle sounds in the forest.

The forest was very quiet. This area was no longer the outer edge of the Norman Forest. They hadn't encountered any classmates for a long time.

The thing making a noise around here was definitely not one of them.

Yan Yunqing listened carefully and could indeed hear a subtle rubbing sound. It was very small, so small that even with Yan Yunqing's hearing, he didn't notice this anomaly at first.

Suddenly, Yan Yunqing keenly felt a sound coming from his right side. He raised Jade Shadow and shot an arrow in that direction.

"Damn!"

A disheveled figure fell from a tree, rolling forward to absorb the impact of the fall. His head was covered with leaves. The familiar figure made Yan Yunqing's hand, which was about to shoot a second arrow, pause slightly.

"Robin?" Yan Yunqing was stunned, "Why are you in a tree?"

Robin touched his nose and smiled sheepishly: "I... I came here a while ago. Wasn't I checking for danger?

I happened to notice that the smell of blood was quite strong over here, so I thought some demonic beast was on a killing spree here, and I wanted to come and see."

"And then I saw you and Demetrius on a killing spree here." Robin spread his hands, "I originally wanted to come down and say hello to you, but you were too focused, and the atmosphere was such that I felt like I couldn't interrupt... um, so I didn't come down."

Yan Yunqing: ......

What atmosphere?

Robin blinked his innocent eyes: What other atmosphere could it be? The familiar atmosphere of an old married couple?

Yan Yunqing refused to guess the meaning revealed in Robin's eyes. He turned his head and found that Demetrius still had a serious expression, his brows tightly furrowed, his gaze constantly patrolling the surroundings.

Yan Yunqing raised an eyebrow. At the same time, he also realized that the rubbing sound he had heard was not coming from the direction where Robin was originally hiding. It could be said that the sound Robin made appeared later.

There was something else here!

Yan Yunqing clicked his tongue, raised Jade Shadow again, and watched the surroundings vigilantly with Demetrius.

Seeing this, Robin, who had originally wanted to joke around, also lost his mood and subconsciously used his talent skill.

Robin's pupils shrank, "Behind!"

At the same time, Yan Yunqing also identified the location where the rubbing sound had originally come from, instantly raising Jade Shadow, turning around, and shooting an arrow.

"Swish swish—"

A huge black shadow rose from the bushes. Yan Yunqing's arrow landed on the black shadow, but it didn't cause much damage.

Instead, it seemed to have angered it, causing the black shadow to quickly attack in their direction!

"Dodge!"

Yan Yunqing roared and quickly dived in another direction, rolling forward and half-kneeling on the ground.

Demetrius and Robin also had their own ways of escaping. Demetrius landed lightly on an open space on the other side. A few symbols in Ancient Ailman appeared on his body, floating up and down.

Yan Yunqing recognized at a glance that the other party had used the Lightness Spell, turning the weight of his whole body into a light feather, ready to ride the wind at any time.

Robin was much more dishevelled. He had rolled directly on the ground. When he got up, his face was inevitably stained with black and gray, which was the dirt on the ground.

His hair was also messy, looking like a beggar who had been begging somewhere.
