An Ze was a person who lived by writing. His job was to write novels, essays or poems for people’s amusements. He contributed it to the base every month and the base would regularly publish such pamphlets to people. However, just three months ago, the base removed this department to save manpower and resources.

At that time—

“An Ze, what are you reading?” Josie asked.

“I want to prepare for the selection test of the base’s supply station.” An Ze drew a circle in the book. “I think I would like the work there and the salary is good.”

Josie frowned.

“You want to get away from civilian status?” He asked. “The test is difficult.”

“It’s fine.”

“An Ze.” Josie’s tone became harsh. “You’ve always known that I want to go out into the wild with you.”

An Ze smiled. His tone was very light, like coaxing a wayward friend, but there was also a helpless sigh. “I’m not fit to go outside.”

“I will protect you.” Josie grabbed his shoulder, voice soft. “I can’t live without you. Follow me into the wild and we won’t go to any dangerous places.”

The fragments of memories were roughly the same. Eventually, under Josie’s soft persuasion, An Ze promised to go on an adventure into the wild. Josie was the member of a large mercenary team. He did some work and introduced An Ze very smoothly. An Ze was responsible for the distribution and statistics of materials.

However, in the wild, anything could happen. One day, the team lost its way and entered the edge of the Abyss. By the time they found out that the mushrooms here were unusual, it was too late. The monsters in the Abyss wouldn’t let go of any food.

For humans, even the edges of the Abyss were terrible. Three of the five armoured vehicles were damaged. The people on these three panicked and moved to the intact armoured vehicles. As they were escaping, An Ze pushed Josie to barely dodge the attack of a winged monster in the air and tripped over the vines on the ground.

Josie paused for a second. After this second, this survival instinct surpassed everything. Between pulling An Ze up and escaping, he chose the latter. He flew forward and was pulled by the captain into the armoured vehicle. At this moment, An Ze stared at their figures while being stabbed through the chest by the monster’s bone spurs.

Immediately, the mercenary team used the heaviest firepower to start a fierce battle with the monsters and then withdrew. Their movements were too loud and they woke up An Zhe. He came out to look for the spore but returned empty-handed every time. This time was the exception. He took advantage of the fierce fighting to quietly bring An Ze deep into the cave.
