238: Chapter 238 Treasure Land 8

After a bout of intense dodging and chasing, several players, especially the Plump Boss and the Girl in Pajamas, were now panting and covered in sweat.

Neither of them was the type to exercise regularly, and they couldn't handle such a stimulating and intense escape.

Their lower abdomens were now throbbing with pain, clearly a sign of having a stitch.

At this rate, they wouldn't last long; they would fall behind because they couldn't run anymore, and eventually, they would be surrounded and killed by the mandrills.

The Girl in Pajamas gasped, her voice tinged with a sob: "What should I do? Save me, I can't run for much longer. Think of something!"

The expression on the Plump Boss's face was also very ugly right now: "Huff, huff, no, huff, huff, this definitely won't work. Who knows how long they'll chase us? We must find a way to shake off that pack of mandrills."

"It's difficult. The most direct method now is to keep running until we are out of their attack range. These mandrills can't run too far from their territory," the Doctor with a low ponytail said, panting.

"But I've already... Ah!" The Girl in Pajamas was just about to say she couldn't hold on any longer, but suddenly, not paying attention, she tripped and fell directly to the ground.

In reality, because the ground here was covered in a layer of mud formed by thick fallen leaves, insect carcasses, and other debris, this fall didn't cause the Girl in Pajamas any real injury.

However, the Girl in Pajamas was already physically exhausted. She had been able to barely persist earlier due to momentum, but after this fall, her legs immediately went weak, and she couldn't even crawl back up.

At a time like this, if no one helped her, the Girl in Pajamas would definitely be dead.

The Plump Boss was even running behind the Girl in Pajamas, so he was the first to notice the girl fall and immediately shouted: "Someone come and help her up, I can't!"

He himself couldn't hold on much longer, panting and covered in sweat, clearly unable to help the Girl in Pajamas up.

The few players who were running for their lives in front heard the shouting from behind and turned their heads.

Whether it was the three male players or the two female players, Luo Yuejian and the Doctor with a low ponytail, their running speed was much faster than the Plump Boss and the Girl in Pajamas who was still running behind.

Therefore, when they turned back, they realized they were already over ten meters away from the two of them.

The Mean-looking Man didn't move, looking indifferent and unprepared to help. However, the man with the mole on his face and the Maintenance worker in a faded leather jacket had expressions of hesitation on their faces.

The Doctor with a low ponytail spoke up quickly: "Save her. The reason those mandrills don't dare to come down and surround us right now is because we have enough people. Otherwise, they wouldn't just be throwing stones from the trees; they would be coming down to attack us directly!"

The previous performance of the Doctor with a low ponytail had given the New players some trust in her. Therefore, upon hearing her say this, and with their own lives at stake, the man with the mole on his face cursed, dashed back, and pulled the Girl in Pajamas up, "Hurry, let's go!"

At this moment, the Maintenance worker in a faded leather jacket also rushed over. The two of them together supported the Girl in Pajamas, whose legs were weak and who couldn't run anymore, and charged forward.

At this time, after careful thought, Luo Yuejian finally came up with a flawless plan. It was the words of the Doctor with a low ponytail just now that reminded her.

Previously, Luo Yuejian had found it strange why those mandrills only attacked them with stones from the trees instead of coming down to beat them up directly. After all, Luo Yuejian knew clearly in her heart that these mandrills were extremely ferocious.

Relying on the numbers and combat power of the mandrill population, they could dominate in any primeval forest. Therefore, their temperament was extremely overbearing, and their attitude towards intruders was very fierce.

But in this situation, this group of guys didn't have a direct confrontation with them, but instead used a roundabout method, staying in the trees and throwing stones down.

Now, through the words of the Doctor with a low ponytail, Luo Yuejian finally realized. To this group of mandrills, they, the players, were a completely unfamiliar species.

To the naked eye, each player was about 1.7 meters tall, and with seven players gathered together, it looked quite intimidating to them without knowing their actual strength. Therefore, those mandrills didn't dare to rashly come down and attack.

And at this moment, if Luo Yuejian wanted the mandrills to attack her, she had to find a way to break away from the player group and act alone.

It would be best to head in the direction of the mandrills' territory; that way, she would definitely be treated as an intruder by those mandrills. And as a lone player entering the mandrills' territory alone, the outcome would naturally be imaginable, hehe~

While confirming her plan of action, Luo Yuejian had already thought of a reason. She glanced at the other players: "I'm going alone."

As soon as these words were spoken, the other players were stunned. The Doctor with a low ponytail frowned slightly: "Why?"

She seemed to have thought of something, "If you want to lure those mandrills away alone, there's no need. Only by staying together can we deter those mandrills and keep them from acting rashly."

Luo Yuejian had also considered this reason in her mind before. But honestly, this reason wouldn't even pass the slacker system.

Lure the mandrills away alone? Is that her character persona?

Luo Yuejian was 100% certain that if she really used this reason to run into the mandrills' territory alone, the slacker system would definitely judge her as malicious suicide.

So this excuse definitely wouldn't work. Luo Yuejian looked at the Doctor with a low ponytail indifferently and shook her head: "Because there are too many people, that's why the mandrills keep chasing us."

Luo Yuejian's thinking was very simple. Mandrills are omnivorous animals; they don't just eat wild fruits, they also don't shy away from meat. Seeing such a group of living players standing here, they must be drooling.

The reason these mandrills kept chasing them was very likely because they wanted to eat them, but because they were wary of the large number of players, they didn't launch an active attack, but instead were depleting their stamina from the trees.

If the players' stamina was completely depleted, the outcome awaiting them could be imagined.
