The villagers packed up their things one after another and walked out.

Everyone's faces were covered with war-torn winds and frost, and many people had pale faces and thin skin. In this era, it was a blessing to be able to fill their stomachs.

Lu Ning tied the short knife around his waist. After counting the number of people and confirming that there were nineteen people in total, he nodded and walked out of the village with a hat.

Protect the villagers.

At least three people are required to survive.

This task is difficult or not, but it is never simple. If there is no internal response to Nightmare Space, you will inevitably run into three sterns head-on on the third day. Not to mention protecting the villagers, even self-protection is almost impossible.

"I'm not an insider."

The sound of Nightmare Space interrupted Lu Ning's thoughts inappropriately.

Lu Ning said expressionlessly: "Can you not read my thoughts?"

Nightmare Space is also very innocent. It does not want to read Lu Ning's messy ideas, but the contractor is the only one who is Lu Ning, and there is nothing else to pay attention to except Lu Ning.

...

The rain was drizzling, as if there was no end. The dense clouds were always suppressed in the sky. I don’t know how many years it took to have a chance to clear up.

Following the direction guided by Nightmare Space, Lu Ning took many villagers to a long journey and finally arrived at the canyon ten miles away.

The canyon is not very steep, but it is very large, stretching to the end of the sight.

When Lu Ning found the cave hidden in a blind spot in sight, someone among the villagers suddenly exclaimed, revealing an expression of thinking about something.

"So it's here."

"Have you been here?"

Lu Ning looked at the man strangely.

The man nodded and said, "I came here when I was very young, but the impression was very blurry. If you bring everyone here, I remember that there is such a place."

When Lu Ning heard his words, he couldn't help but think.

Could it be that the correct way to complete the task is to first gain the trust of the villagers, and then communicate with the villagers. Finally, this person remembered that there was a cave to hide here, and then everyone came to hide here together?

"It's roughly the same as you think."

The voice of Nightmare Space sounded in Lu Ning's ears, "But this is just one of the ways to complete the task. What is more in line with the style of the contractor is to destroy the incoming ninjas."

Lu Ning rolled his eyes and said, "You don't know I can't beat it."

The mechanized voice of Nightmare Space sounded: "Fighting head-on, you fight with the lowest combat power of the ninja. The winning rate is 3%, the escape rate is 12%, and the death rate is 85%.

"The analysis is good, go back and add a chicken leg."

“…”

Lu Ning led many villagers into the cave. The cave was very large and was gourd-shaped, enough to accommodate twenty or thirty people to hide here.

After relocating the villagers, Lu Ning came to the entrance of the cave and looked out.

"What if it's not a head-on battle, but a sneak attack? With your help, I should be able to directly determine their exact location and route."

Lu Ning still did not intend to give up on killing a side mission of Shinin, because such side missions are probably one of the least difficult tasks in the Naruto world.

What's more.

He also has Nightmare Space for help, and once he completes the side quest, the reward is basically within a certain range, and he can choose whatever he wants.

"The winning rate will be higher, but not much."

"Why?"

"Because ninjas are much more vigilant than ordinary people, and their reaction speed is much stronger than ordinary people. Even if you are not slow, you can only catch the opponent off guard if you want to attack. If you cannot seriously injure or die with one blow, you will not have much chance of winning."

Nightmare Space continued to analyze.

Lu Ning thought for a while and said, "What if he uses a digitized body?"

Nightmare Space read the thoughts in Lu Ning and fell into silence, as if it was conducting analysis. After about a few seconds, it responded.

"The vast majority of contractors, in their first few tasks, almost used their digitized bodies to win. You are finally close to the lowest level of contractors."

Lu Ning: "..."

...

noon.

The sky is still covered with clouds and drizzle.

In the drizzling raindrops, three figures ran in the wilderness. They were wearing the forehead protection of the Sand Village, and they were the ninjas of the Sand Village!

However, the figures of these three people were a little embarrassed, as if they had experienced a battle.

“There is a village ahead.”

While running, the man running in front suddenly flashed his eyes and looked up at the front, and saw a scattered building appearing in his sight.

"Do you want to go there?"

One person asked in a low voice.

The man in the lead said in a deep voice: "Go, since there is a village, there is food. We may encounter Ninjas from Yu Ninja and Konoha at any time. We must replenish our energy as soon as possible."

They are the Shinin of a unit of Sakai. They experienced a battle three days ago, and the entire team was completely disbanded. They are now in a state of losing contact and no supplies.

"Where are the villagers?"

"Dispose everything so as not to cause trouble."

The three of them ran quickly and soon arrived in the village.

However.

The three of them searched around the village, but they didn't even see half of their figure!

"What's wrong!"

“There is a problem here.”

The three of them searched and after they met, their expressions were a little serious.

"It's not like a place where no one lives for a long time, and it's very neatly packed. It seems that the whole village has left together, and it takes no more than five days."

"What's going on?"

The expressions on the faces of the few people were solemn, but they were a little confused.

To avoid them?

This idea was wiped out by all three people in just a moment, because it seemed that the villagers had been away for at least three days.

Three days!

Their team was broken up and completely lost contact. It happened two days ago, so the villagers in this village must have left because of something else.

"what to do?"

One person asked.

Yuryu, the leader, lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "Kaosa, please search the village carefully to see if there is anything to eat and other information."

The ninja named Kusa nodded.

Yura turned his head and looked at the third person again, saying, "Nakata, go out with me to see if you can find anything."

"good."

Nakata nodded and followed Yurai out of the village.

The two came outside the village and acted separately, one of them searched the other side.

Since the country of Rain is rainy all year round, the suburbs are always wet and muddy, and footprints are complicated and can be seen everywhere.

And as time goes by, these footprints will gradually become blurred under the erosion of rain.

Just as Nakada and Yuri started searching, Lu Ning, who was closing his eyes at the entrance of the cave in the canyon ten miles away from the village, suddenly opened his eyes.

A reminder from Nightmare Space came to his ears.
Chapter completed!
