Chapter 42 – Temporary Team for Treant Forest
The three soon arrived at the transport point plaza. There a group of ten or so players was waiting together, grouped up like how the stars cupped themselves around the moon. At the center of their attention was a curvaceous beauty in azure armour.
“Senior Sister Yu Lan (Blue Feather), they’re here.” Yao Yao walked to Yu Lan’s side.
The two gorgeous beauties standing side by side was an especially stunning sight to behold.
“What luck! We’re encountering beauties as soon as we set out. So beautiful! So gorgeous!” Tang Yao softly whispered. This little scoundrel was a lecherous pervert who wouldn’t change even if you beat him to death. He enjoyed looking at beautiful women, but he knew very well that most of these beauties would never put him in their eyes. Therefore, he did nothing more than ogle.
“Pleasure to meet you,” Yu Lan said, facing Nie Yan and Tang Yao. She carefully observed Nie Yan. Although his appearance seemed somewhat juvenile, his calm and unhurried bearing made him look quite composed. The most noticeable trait was the air of confidence and decisiveness that surrounded him. Since she could still be regarded as experienced and knowledgeable, she could discern he possessed some of the special characteristics of an expert. He did indeed possess some of the special qualities of an expert. As for the fatty standing by his side… She didn’t know what to make of him.
“Likewise.” Nie Yan slightly nodded in reply. Yu Lan’s complete set of azure armour perfectly revealed the curves of her model-like figure. A glimpse of her deep cleavage could be seen in the opening near her chest. From head to toe, she radiated a fatal, wild attractiveness. She undoubtedly possessed the best figure out of all the women he had met before. Moreover, she had a beautiful face as well. This devastating combination was practically capable of seducing men to their deaths.
In spite of this, Nie Yan held no interest or desires towards her.
Tang Yao, however, had a little trouble shifting his gaze. When comparing Yao Yao and Yu Lan, the latter evidently suited his tastes much more.
“Take care, this beauty is someone even I don’t dare to provoke,” Nie Yan secretly informed Tang Yao.
“H-hello,” Tang Yao stumbled as he greeted her in an overly reserved manner.
Nie Yan’s eyes widened in surprise. This little scoundrel often couldn’t restrain himself when in front of beautiful women due to his perverted nature and natural tendencies as a chatterbox. However, today, Nie Yan was witnessing an unprecedented event. This chatterbox was acting quite shy and reserved! Am I dreaming? Did the sun rise from the west this morning?
“Alright, let’s get ready to set off for the dungeon. If you have something to say, we’ll talk on the road there.” Yu Lan consistently paid attention to efficiency, thus she didn’t want to waste any more time standing around.
“Remember our prior agreement. I’ll be acting as team captain during the run, so I want everyone listening to my arrangements,” Nie Yan promptly reminded Yu Lan. His gaze was sharp and resolute.
“Alright.” Yu Lan nodded in reply. She turned around and addressed the rest of her team. “I’m disbanding the team. In a moment, accept Nie Yan’s invite to form a team. He’ll be temporarily acting as team captain, so listen to his arrangements!”
The rest of the members began heavily discussing. They were unfamiliar with Nie Yan. Therefore, in their hearts, they were somewhat unwilling to take commands from this stranger.
“Yu Lan, why do we have to take orders from this guy? If by any chance he doesn’t know anything and ends up getting our team wiped, what do we do then?” The one who spoke was Chen Bo.¹ Nie Yan and Yao Yao’s seemingly intimate relationship had caused a sense of crisis to arise. As a result, he regarded Nie Yan with an intense hostility.
Nie Yan wasn’t unfamiliar with this Chen Bo. He was a classmate of Yu Lan and they were quite familiar with each other. In the past, he had always been pursuing Yu Lan, but after meeting Yao Yao, his mind went into a state of chaos. He liked all beauties. So, he didn’t know which one he should pursue. Therefore, he decided to make both his property and became unwilling to let any others come near the two. However, to his misfortune, both girls greatly disliked him and as a result, he ended up getting neither. Simply put, he was merely a useless brat with some wealth who got smitten with any beauty he laid eyes on.
In Nie Yan’s past life, this scoundrel was a walking tragedy. In this life, after encountering Nie Yan, it appeared he was still destined to become a walking tragedy.
“You are…?”
“I’m called Chen Bo!”

“Morning Wood? Ohh~ I see… So it was Elder Brother Morning Wood!” Nie Yan’s tone dripped with sarcasm. He feigned surprise and acted as if Chen Bo’s input held great importance.
“I said my name is Chen Bo!

“The same ‘Chen’ as in the surname.
