204: Chapter 28: The younger brother's father died and his mother was ill; how pitiful!

The healer fell to the ground in despair.

She was the only hunter in her family.

She bore too many responsibilities on her shoulders.

Her younger brother was about to enter Hunter Academy.

Her mother was seriously ill and bedridden.

Her father had died in a beast tide.

And now, she herself was facing death.

Tears involuntarily streamed down her face.

Images of her younger brother and mother flashed before her eyes.

"I'm sorry, little brother... your big sister can't take care of you anymore..."

Lu Chen couldn't help but sigh.

He still needed these people to answer his questions.

A small Flying Sword appeared beside him.

With a sonic boom.

The blade flashed.

The head fell.

The Black Bear's body was split in two.

The girl tightly shut her eyes.

But the biting pain she expected did not come.

Instead, she heard an earth-shattering roar.

She opened her eyes.

And saw an extremely handsome young man standing before her.

Lu Chen had already teleported over.

To let her know who had saved her.

Lu Chen said calmly.

"Are you okay?"

The girl's heart involuntarily raced.

She almost stammered.

"You... th-thank you! Thank you for saving me."

Lu Chen nodded.

Then looked at her teammates still lying on the ground.

And the assassin who had just arrived.

Lu Chen said.

"Your teammates need your help. Go assist them."

The girl quickly snapped back to reality.

Turning to look at the captain and the knight.

Both were in a semi-conscious state.

Especially the knight.

His condition was critical.

After all, he was only D-Rank.

She first tried to heal him.

But the effect was poor.

His injuries were too fatal.

She couldn't help but sob.

"I'm sorry, Luo Xiu. I don't have the ability to save you."

Lu Chen came to her side.

And spoke.

"Go save your captain. Leave him to me."

The girl was very surprised.

But she still did as he instructed.

Lu Chen slightly raised his hand.

Even before the girl reached the captain's side.

He had already healed the knight.

However, he did not help treat the captain.

The girl could handle that.

Ten minutes passed.

The girl's face was pale.

She had almost exhausted all her energy.

The captain's injuries finally healed.

Lu Chen waited quietly.

The assassin didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

Afraid of disturbing Lu Chen.

Five minutes later.

The captain and the knight both regained consciousness.

The girl explained how Lu Chen had saved them.

At this moment, she was still a bit dazed.

How had this person healed Luo Xiu?

He could kill that Black Bear, and also heal?

What exactly was his profession?

The four of them came before Lu Chen.

And bowed deeply.

The captain said sincerely.

"Thank you, Senior, for saving us. I am Sun Tai, the captain of this team."

The knight hurriedly said, "I am Luo Xiu. Thank you, Senior, for saving my life."

The assassin said, "I am Chao He. Thank you for saving Ai Xue and us."

The girl quickly introduced herself.

"I'm sorry, Senior, for introducing myself so late. My name is Ai Xue. Thank you again."

Lu Chen nodded.

And said.

"I have some questions to ask you."

Sun Tai immediately replied.

"Of course, Senior. It is our honor."

Lu Chen began asking some basic questions.

What place is this, what is it called, what is the cultivation System, is this a planet or an independent space?

Upon hearing this, the team members were all greatly surprised.

Someone as powerful as him.

Didn't even know these basic facts?

But they dared not question it.

And patiently answered each one.

Twenty minutes later.

Lu Chen finally had a general understanding of this place.

This was not a planet.

It wasn't even any known space within the Great Universe.

They called this place the Demon Web World.

A vast world with no known end.

The cultivators of this world were called hunters.

Their Ranks were also from E to A.

Even above A-Rank was called S-Rank.

However.

This world had no F-Rank.

S-Rank here was only equivalent to A-Rank in the Great Universe.

When people in this world turned 16.

They would all attempt to connect to the Demon Web.

If they had talent, they could undergo an Awakening.

Talents mainly included directions like swordsmanship, Spells, warrior, knight, beast taming, and so on.

They were divided into different grades from E to S.

The higher the talent grade.

The higher the hunter's achievements.

After connecting to the Demon Web System.

They could level up by killing Vicious Beasts.

Whether in the wilderness or in a Secret Realm.

As long as they hunted Vicious Beasts, they could gain experience points.

Even clearing a Secret Realm offered special rewards.

So...

That damned spatial rift had thrown him into a strange game world.

Lu Chen couldn't help but complain inwardly.

It felt like another Transmigration.

The only difference.

Was that this time it was just his Clone.

He then asked the System.

"What's going on? Is this your doing?"

...

Silence.

A long silence.

Damn bastard.

So unreliable at a critical moment.

From these people's words.

Lu Chen concluded.

None of these people had a magic core.

Magic cores were somewhat similar to the Soul Skills of Blue Star.

It was an even rarer talent.

But here.

Magic cores generally did not Awaken alongside other talents.

Moreover.

These people did not Cultivate.

Or, more accurately.

They were simply incapable of Cultivating.

Lu Chen didn't even sense a trace of Great Universe energy in the air.

They leveled up and achieved Breakthroughs by gaining experience points from killing monsters in Secret Realms.
