Tao Yu had no intention of striking out in the middle of the night. After a day of travel, he prepared to rest here for the night.
With so many people around, if something really happened, all that mattered was running faster than the rest.
He guessed many others shared the same thought.
Tao Yu entered the campsite, parked his motorcycle in the 'parking lot', took the packages off it, and hung them on Cao Shaolin and Little Black, himself going into action with light gear.
"The World Barrier is really important, just don't know if there's any other way to bring Yuan Force creatures over here besides Pioneers..."
Looking up at the rainforest foundation that was a dozen meters higher than this side and the gloomy trees of the rainforest, Tao Yu also felt the protective power of the World Barrier.
But with the Suns siblings often taking action, they should be keeping the number of Aliens in check...
Inside the camp, it was actually quite lively, with many people still looking to find some strong teammates, gathered around four or five bonfires.
Tao Yu, 'a pair' with an Alien, still attracted some attention.
Perhaps because they stood out too much, yet no one approached to bother them immediately.
Only after a while did people realize that there were apparently only 'two' people at Tao Yu's site, did a bold leather-armored beauty walk over.
Her chest-protecting leather armor was so tight it bulged, showing off her healthy midriff, and her skin was a healthy wheat color. She wore nothing but leather shorts on the lower half of her body, leaving her unprotected thighs bare.
This made Tao Yu feel somewhat speechless. Going into the rainforest with this kind of attire?
Looking to become a leech's best friend, huh?
She was very attractive—with a bare face rating of 7.5 and a very healthy figure.
In the outer city, she would definitely be considered well-nourished at home, probably from a not so poor family background. Yet, this was just too protective, pure and naive.
Just by looking, Tao Yu had already made a judgment about this person approaching him.
"Friend, there are just the two of you, want to team up? There are four of us, and we all have level 4 battle talents with main Skills."
The naive beauty came up to Tao Yu, first glancing at Little Black warily and then curiously sizing up Tao Yu and Cao Shaolin.
"No thanks, you'd better change your clothes."
Tao Yu casually gave her a piece of advice, then found his own tent number and went straight in for a rest, starting the relatively low-magnitude, less consuming Meditation Technique.
Since the supply of food was limited, Tao Yu would not quickly exhaust his supplies when entering an area where food couldn't be stably acquired—he had to control the rate...

Elsewhere, the proactive girl returned with a gloomy face.
"Haha, Bai Ya, even you failed," chuckled a much more robust woman, who could even be described as burly, seeing Bai Ya return dejectedly.
"Yeah, I thought if his job was Taming, we could totally team up and cover for each other, you know," heh, Bai Ya giggled, then added another sentence,
"Though, both guys were quite handsome, just that the one with the eye patch had a very cold face, and staring with no expression was kind of creepy."
"What's the use of being handsome, it's all about strength."
A man even more muscular than the burly woman muttered, but thinking the other party could tame an Alien, his strength didn't seem too bad, and he didn't know what to say anymore.
Tao Yu pondered within his heart.
A Pioneer who had been parasitized could of course come through the world barrier!
It's just that after being parasitized, since they were 'attacked,' they couldn't meditate to return to the real world.
So even if there were Aliens lurking around here, or even attacking, it wouldn't be too surprising for Tao Yu. Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen to stay in the camp where there were many human sentinels!
"Would it just be Aliens that make me feel this way?"
Tao Yu's sense of unease inexplicably began to rise, making him feel somewhat irritable.
What is it?
Just hesitating for a moment, Tao Yu had Wino retreat back into his shadow and then vanished like an ink painting, diving straight out of the tent.
No matter what it was, it was best to check it out first!
As the speckled shadow view flickered, just as he left the tent, Tao Yu was slightly startled, because without knowing when, a gray fog had enveloped the entire campsite.
The fog wasn't too thick yet, and the firelight from a few bonfires could still be seen, but the entire campsite had suddenly become eerily quiet.
All the voices of the people who had originally been chatting by the bonfires and all other sounds of conversation seemed to have completely vanished.
There were only some heavy breathing and snoring sounds.
With just a glance, he saw some figures sprawled out on the ground near the bonfire, and the guards at the entrance of the campsite were also lying on the ground, with their fates unknown.
"There's something wrong with this fog... Mental Immunity..."
Tao Yu realized why he had suddenly awakened—the Spirit Perception warning and Mental Immunity had made him immune to this disturbance.
Hypnotism?
Tao Yu only hesitated for a second before swiftly diving into a nearby tent.
Inside were two sleeping women, one big and burly, snoring thunderously. The other woman, who had previously come over to invite him, was sleeping soundly with a flush on her face, as if she was having a sweet dream.
Tao Yu walked straight over and picked her up, first gently tapping her face.
She didn't wake up, and then he gradually increased the force, slap, slap -
She slept like a dead pig, even moaning a bit dreamily with a slightly troubling voice. Her legs were also together, lightly twisting and turning in her sleep.
She was sleeping so deeply that it seemed anything could be done to her without her waking up.
Casually tossing her aside like a dirty rag, Tao Yu crouched at the edge of the tent, closed his eyes, and communicated with Little Black via 'heart-to-heart,' causing the still-in-his-own-tent Little Black to perk up and awake.
"Seems it's only targeting humans? No, Little Black has been affected too; otherwise, it wouldn't have slept so heavily during night watch, and I wouldn't have had to call it..."
Ordering in his mind, Little Black unhesitatingly rushed out of the tent and started to madly growl and bark.
Not knowing what the situation was, it was best not to act recklessly. Many new threats could be very dangerous, and Tao Yu was careful with his feathers.
Letting Little Black scout ahead should at least reveal something...
