Abandoning the Search
The items weren't moving slowly, but there were simply too many corpses. In ten minutes, the things that had fallen out had piled up, and Chu Yuan even picked out two inconspicuous items.
Neither was particularly valuable.
When an ordinary player died, items in their inventory were reclaimed by the game. Items they had taken out to use but hadn't had time to put away were left where they fell, while items carried on their bodies remained there. But since the Bo Lun family sent people over after every dungeon, the items left on the corpses probably weren't anything good.
"Let's rest for a while." Gan Qing, who was seriously injured, was the first to feel exhausted.
Over there, Qiu Xiangdong frowned slightly, his gaze moving between Xu Huo and Chu Yuan. Seeing that both of them sat down looking tired, he turned to Wu Xiaonan. "How are you feeling?"
"Try having a hole punched through your chest and see how you feel." Wu Xiaonan looked to be in pretty good shape.
Just then, Chu Yuan flexed his aching, numb hands and asked Qiu Xiangdong with a frown, "It won't take a long time to recover, will it?"
"Don't worry. You'll see in a bit." Qiu Xiangdong pointed at Wu Xiaonan. "Isn't she fine?"
Chu Yuan didn't say anything else, instead asking Xu Huo with his eyes.
Xu Huo rubbed his own wrist as well. "How about we take turns later? That way, we won't all get too tired. If something unexpected happens, we might not be able to react in time."
The others had no objections. Dr. Deng took the initiative to approach the pile of items cleared from the corpses, put on gloves, and took out a magnifying glass to inspect them carefully.
