Chapter 27: chapter, 27
"Leo!"
A voice suddenly rang out from the crowd.
Ben and Leo simultaneously looked toward the direction of the voice and saw four youths staring at them.
Two of the youths had smirks on their faces, their expressions carrying a profound meaning.
"What a coincidence! I didn't expect to run into you in the Spirit Realm."
Hearing this, Leo glanced at them and then nodded. "Indeed, it's quite a coincidence."
Ben immediately leaned closer and whispered, "Do you know them?"
He was leaning a little too close.
Leo could even feel the warm breath that Ben exhaled on his ear, making him a little uncomfortable.
"Class A classmates," Leo whispered.
"Oh…"
Ben looked at the four people but didn't seem to recognize them.
Not to mention Class A classmates.
In the past month, he hadn't even fully recognized all of his own Class B classmates!
"Why do I feel like their tone is a bit sarcastic?" Ben asked. "Is there a past conflict?"
Leo thought for a moment and whispered an explanation: "The two in front had asked me to team up with them before, but at that time, I had already agreed to you, and everything was up to you, so I rejected them."
Hearing this, Ben immediately glanced at the two people in front again.
Could these two kids be holding a grudge because Leo didn't team up with them?
Whether they were or not, he didn't care.
Anyway, they had already entered the Spirit Realm, and they would lose their memories, so there was no need for him to pretend. He could completely reveal his true self.
If they dared to provoke him, he would be careful to transform into the Northwest Hammer King!
At this moment, Leo suddenly said seriously, "Don't mind them… Ben, now that we have entered the Spirit Realm, and we don't yet know what kind of monsters we will encounter, for our safety, I hope that you can listen to me in the following actions."
It was normal for Leo to make such a proposal.
After all, Ben had a "Trash Talent"!
Moreover, in the past month, Ben hadn't trained at all, looking like he had "given up on himself"…
Now that they had entered the Spirit Realm, they certainly couldn't let a person who had given up hope run wild.
Hearing Leo's proposal, Ben wanted to refute it.
However, he thought about it—he didn't know what this Spirit Realm world was like, and he didn't have any clues for the time being, so he might as well give Leo a little face and listen to him first.
It wouldn't be too late for him to correct him in time when Leo made the wrong choice.
Thinking of this, Ben smiled and said, "Okay! I'll listen to you."
Leo secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
He was really afraid that Ben would stubbornly give up on himself and wouldn't listen to him in the Spirit Realm, which would be troublesome.
"There's a city wall over there, let's go take a look first."
"Alright!"
The two then walked toward the direction of the city wall.
The others also made the same choice.
After all, this place was in the wilderness, with nothing at all. If they wanted to explore for clues, they could only go to the city wall to take a look.
So, a group of people marched mightily toward the direction of the city wall.
However, everyone only walked with their own teammates, maintaining a certain distance from others!
The teachers had already told everyone that the threats they needed to face in the Spirit Realm were not only monsters.
But also fellow participants!!
Because most Spirit Realms did not restrict transcendents from killing each other, and in the Spirit Realm, transcendents were also competitors…
Therefore, the phenomenon of transcendents killing each other in the Spirit Realm was not uncommon.
The only ones you could trust were your own teammates!
At this time, the mission had not appeared, and there were no traces of monsters. There was no conflict of interest among the crowd for the time being, so everyone could still maintain a certain order.
In addition, everyone came empty-handed.
Almost nothing was brought except for the clothes on their bodies.
This was because the Amnesia Spirit Realm prohibited carrying any items other than clothing.
…
The crowd moved forward quickly.
It only took a few minutes to reach the outside of the city wall.
Then they stopped.
This was a town full of retro atmosphere, with city walls as high as ten meters or more, surrounding the entire town. Through the city gate, it could be vaguely seen that the houses and buildings in the city were very similar to the architectural style of Northern Europe in the Middle Ages.
On the main road, there were also many pedestrians wearing robes and carriages passing by, which seemed quite prosperous.
From the surface, there was nothing unusual about this place.
However, everyone present still had serious expressions, observing carefully.
Because this was the Spirit Realm, full of unknown dangers, no one dared to be careless here.
"Something's not right."
Leo suddenly issued a reminder.
Ben looked at him and found that his eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and his face was filled with solemnity.
"What's not right?" he asked.
"The whole city is not right." Leo explained in a low voice, "This place is surrounded by wilderness, and no villages can be seen, only this isolated city… This is the biggest anomaly!"
"Oh?" Ben's eyes lit up, and then he continued to ask knowingly, "Why do you say that?"
"Supply problem!"
Leo said patiently, "There are no villages around this town, and no crops are planted, which means that in order to maintain its operation, a large amount of resources need to be transferred from other places for supply."
"From the surface, this should be a town in the feudal period, and no traces of industrialization can be seen. And the transportation in the feudal period was very inconvenient, and the difficulty of supplying the population of a town was too great."
"Under normal circumstances, only important military towns would be like this."
"But this town in front of us doesn't look like an important military town, and most of the people in the city are civilians. The surrounding terrain is also a plain, which does not meet the standards of a key military location."
"So, I think it's very abnormal for this town to appear here."
"Of course, these are all my judgments based on the historical experience I have learned, and this is the Spirit Realm, so there may be some misunderstandings…"
"In short, we have to be careful!"
This was the first time Ben had seen Leo say so much since he met him, including the three years he was in the same class in high school.
I have to say.
Leo's analysis was very reasonable.
Most importantly, Leo could analyze so many things from just the appearance of a town, which shows that his IQ was very high.
He deserved to be the super student who crushed his high school classmates for three years!
Ben was very satisfied with Leo's performance.
Then he asked, "Then what should we do now? Are we going in?"
"Let's go in!" Leo said. "There's nothing here. We have no choice but to enter this city."
Ben nodded.
Then, the two approached the town.
When they were about to reach the city gate.
Suddenly, Ben felt his left eye heat up.
With a thought, a holographic projection panel immediately popped out of his left eye.
At this moment, many scarlet-red words had already appeared on the panel!
That was his mission for this Spirit Realm…
