The other four people nodded in agreement with Huangpu Xin's statement.
"But there is another possibility," everyone turned to look as Ma Yunyang interjected, "This place is a dangerous area, and the wealthy family lost their guards in the danger, so they are desperate to leave as soon as possible."
"Ah? Big brother, can you say something good?" Zhuge Ning shivered. Everyone gave him a blank look. Except for eerie creatures, these few people could handle any monsters without a problem.
Just when everyone was confident, Yunyang said, "I just set up metal at the edge of my control range, and it was touched. Something is coming!"
"Can you determine what it is?" Zhuge Ning asked. Because everyone had their own way of sensing things, Huangpu Xin could sense energy, Chenhao had telepathy, Ma Yunyang could judge the size of the enemy's volume by the magnitude of the metal vibrations set up on the ground in the distance, and Wang Na could even sneak over to take a look directly. Only Zhuge Ning was blind.
"The metal vibrations are not very strong, so this thing is not very big," Ma Yunyang argued.
"It's not within my sensing range yet..." Chenhao said helplessly.
"Energy reaction... should be human," Huangpu Xin judged. Zhuge Ning immediately breathed a sigh of relief; he didn't want to face the kind of thing that would decrease his sanity value, even when facing bandits.
"Don't be too quick to be happy. It's getting closer, sounds like the hoofbeats of a horse. Chenhao, see if you can hide us in a mental blind spot (Professor X's ability, the professor controls other people's brains, distorts their vision, and makes them unable to see a certain object). Let's take cover for now," Huangpu Xin said.
"Okay, but my current level is not high, and the time is relatively short."
"No problem, we'll use it when those people find us." Chenhao nodded and then pushed Huangpu Xin and the others to retreat to the woods on the side of the main road, quietly waiting for the owner of the voice to arrive.
Entered the woods, Zhuge Ning couldn't help but ask, "I think big brother can take down a hundred or eighty bandits by himself, so why hide?"
"...Do you not read novels?" Chenhao could tell that Zhuge Ning was a novice in time travel.
"Mom won't let me watch it." Zhuge Ning said confidently.
"Ummm~ Do you understand the principle that a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake?" Chenhao explained.
"I understand this, but I see people here still using horse-drawn carriages, right? It doesn't feel particularly unusual. They should be ordinary people. Even if seeking revenge, we are not from here and have no concerns..." Zhuge Ning scratched his head.
"Don't fear the 10,000, just fear the one. Look, there's even a Qi-empowered horse! What we are probing here is not mundane power, but to see if there is any extraordinary power." Chenhao began to instruct, "Young people should be more steady, not reckless in development, don't be careless."
Zhuge Ning nodded and silently made a note in a small notebook.
Between a few words, the sound of horse hooves had already drawn near, and a few blurry figures appeared on the horizon.
Huangpu Xin looked into the distance and said, "There are a total of 12 people, wearing swords, helmets, and uniform equipment. They look like ancient official soldiers."
"Why would the army be chasing after nobles... Could it be a noble rebellion?" Chenhao speculated.
"That couldn't be a palace drama, could it? What queen secretly takes action to protect her legitimate son born by the concubine, and the concubine has to send him out of the palace overnight to ensure the survival of her offspring, then stages a drama of 'thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west'..." Huangpu Xin rubbed his chin, feeling that his imagination was quite brilliant.
Everyone stared at him, making him feel uncomfortable. "What's wrong with you guys? Do I have something on my face?" Huangpu Xin was puzzled.
"Um, not really, it's just that your serious image has a slight collapse," Zhuge Ning put it delicately.
"No, what he's really thinking is: I didn't expect this blond-haired, blue-eyed young boy to have such a rich inner world," Chenhao read out the thoughts.
"Chao, I forgot about the telepathy." Zhuge Ning covered her face.
"P, you're just a freshman, I'm just a big guy who took over someone else's body for a rebirth. Stop dilly-dallying, hurry up and figure out a way to get involved in this matter so we can blend in." Huangpu Xin said.
"Alright, the code name for this operation will be 'Adaptation to Local Customs Plan'!" Ma Yunyang's spirit of being a teenager in the second year is burning fiercely.
"..." Everyone took a few steps to the side.
"Hey, give me some face!"
No one paid attention to him. Huangpu Xin began to arrange, "Chenhao is ready to cover us at any time, and Zhuge Ning will attract attention with fireballs." The two nodded in understanding.
"Yunyang, can you take all of us? How's your energy?"
"It's enough. I can handle short-distance transportation with passengers."
"That's fine."
Huangpu Xin turned to Wang Na who was lurking outside and said, "Wang Na... Can you shadow step and follow up with a backstab?" The rogue nodded and disappeared into the darkness.
"Later, I'll have Zhuge Ning attract attention, Chenhao will take the opportunity to control these people, Yunyang will knock them out, and if there's any trouble, it will be up to Wangan to finish them off. Okay?" "Okay," everyone agreed.
Chenhao hesitated for a moment, "Is it really necessary to kill them? We don't even know them..." As a person of good character, he felt that it was not right.
"Chenhao, what is the most important thing for us right now?" Huangpu Xin asked him.
"To survive?" Chenhao said.
"Yes, to survive and return alive. I didn't mean to kill these people, just to prevent unnecessary accidents. We still know nothing about this world, Chenhao. Let's wait until I fully recover before deciding on sparing them," Huangpu Xin patted Chenhao's tense shoulder.
"Okay, let's catch up now. When they catch up to us, we'll take action. Remember to make sure people see that we are saving them," Huangpu Xin said.
Yunyang The twisted metal taken from the dismantled car was made into a square box to carry everyone, trailing far behind the 12 pursuers.
"Why wait for these people to catch up before taking action?" Zhuge Ning asked again.
"Kid, you only cherish what you've lost. Let me be clear, we're here to gain trust, not to save people. If possible, it's best to wait until those nobles are injured or dead before..." Huangpu Xin was interrupted by Chenhao: "Saving them has already gained their trust, right? Waiting for people to die before saving them seems a bit..." "...Let's play it by ear," Huangpu Xin didn't want to say much more. Even between like-minded friends, their ways of thinking and attitudes towards doing things may not necessarily be the same.
"The front has stopped! Get ready, and act according to the plan when they make a move." Huangpu Xin sensed that the humanoid energy in front had stopped and dispersed, realizing that they had caught up.
"Mr. Chen, I hope you are well." In the middle of the road, twelve iron riders surrounded two carriages, and a man who seemed to be the leader was confronting an old man on one of the carriages.
Upon hearing the leader's voice, the old man driving the carriage sneered, "Hmph, Commander Wang, instead of managing the imperial army properly, you are meddling in palace affairs. Aren't you afraid of being executed along with your entire family?!"
"Hey, Mr. Chen, you're wrong about this. We all serve the emperor loyally, and the harem belongs to the emperor. Helping the empress is helping the emperor, right? Hahaha." The leader's words confirmed to his subordinates that the prince was indeed in this carriage, so they relaxed and couldn't help but tease a few words.
You should know that the current empress, Lady Wang, comes from a prestigious family. Completing this task would be a great achievement, especially since he is also related to the Wang family. The empress will certainly not mistreat him...
Thinking of this, the leader surnamed Wang couldn't hold back: "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and capture this commoner who impersonates the prince and the rebel party together!"
Upon hearing this groundless accusation, the old man trembled with anger: "How dare you!"
