"Brother, what are you doing in the Training Zone?"
The Big Mouse walked alongside Lin, quickening his pace when Lin moved faster, and slowing down when Lin did. This was a sign of his eagerness to stick close to Lin.
"I'm on a mission to find some materials."
Lin lowered his head to check his communicator, seemingly reviewing the mission details.
"I see. Brother, since you're not familiar with this place, do you need a guide? I'm a professional guide; I've been in this Training Zone for over ten years. I know the way to wherever you want to go!"
Lin squinted his eyes, remaining silent. He naturally sensed something was off, but he couldn't figure out what the Big Mouse was really after.
"How much do you charge for guiding?"
"Not much at all! Just take you to your destination, and I only want one-tenth of your mission reward. It's totally worth it! Think about how much time you'll save and considering your level seems low, it could be dangerous if you encounter any fierce beasts. Just follow me..."
Seeing that Lin was almost taking the bait, the Big Mouse eagerly promoted his benefits.
Why not play along with this Big Mouse and let him lead me to the lake?
Lin thought to himself that he really didn't know the way. Just as he was about to agree and have some fun with the Big Mouse, he heard someone shout from behind, "Mouse, get lost! You're trying to scam newcomers again!"
Upon hearing the shout, the mouse cursed under his breath, "What bad luck! Running into these three again!"
Without caring whether Lin agreed or not, he turned and walked away, disappearing into the crowd in no time.
Well then, it seems that some so-called "justice warriors" scared off his prey. It looked like there would be no fun on his way to the destination.
However, out of courtesy, Lin turned back with a smile to see who had spoken.
As he turned around, Lin was immediately stunned. He stared at the three people approaching him, his mouth agape in shock.
"Brother, you almost got tricked by that alien race just now. They are con artists, specifically targeting newcomers like you. They lead you to dangerous places and then ask for money to protect you!"
The leader's explanation was completely lost on Lin; he just stared blankly at the three people in front of him and muttered, "Am I dreaming?"
"Are you Wu Qilong?"
Lin pointed at the handsome leader and asked tentatively.
The leader was taken aback for a moment and exclaimed, "How do you know my name? I am Wu Qilong!"
"Then you must be Su Youpeng?" Lin pointed at another seemingly obedient boy.
"Huh? I am Su Youpeng!" The boy was also stunned.
Lin could fit a fist in his mouth; he pointed at the last person and said, "Then you are... Chen Zhipeng?"
"I am, I am Chen Zhipeng!"
The last handsome guy looked extremely surprised. The three of them stared at Lin as if he were a monster, while Lin looked at them as if he had seen deities.
The four of them just stared at each other for what felt like a minute before coming back to their senses.
"Big brother, big brother, we finally have fame! It seems that being chivalrous is the right thing to do!"
Chen Zhipeng said with teary eyes to Wu Qilong. Big brother Wu Qilong nodded vigorously with a look of disbelief.
The three brothers excitedly hugged each other, praising one another while crying.
Seeing this scene, Lin snapped back to reality. He slapped his face and shouted angrily, "How can there be a Super Ability Tiger Team here? No, these three fools are definitely not my Super Ability Tiger Team!"
Hearing this, Su Youpeng turned to Lin Dao and said, "Brother, there's no need to idolize us too much. We are the Super Power Tiger Team! Yes, you heard it right, we are the Super Power Tiger Team!"
The statement sounded like a command, and the three of them simultaneously struck a pose, shouting in unison, "Acting chivalrously, punishing evil and promoting good, we are the Super Power Tiger Team!"
Looking at the three's bizarre appearance, Lin furrowed his brows and asked, "Can I request a song?"
"Request a song?"
The three tilted their heads at Lin, their faces displaying utter confusion.
"I want to hear your love!"
"Love? Ah, right, we have boundless love!"
...
Later, after much effort in communication, Lin Tongguo realized that the three of them couldn't sing at all. Although their looks were quite similar to the legendary "Super Ability Tiger Team" from Earth, their essence was vastly different.
Please note the spelling: Wu Qilong is not Wu Qilong, Su Youpeng is not Su Youpeng, and Chen Zhipeng is definitely not Chen Zhipeng. The three are impostors!
The Super Power Tiger Team is also missing the two characters for "super ability" compared to the Super Ability Tiger Team!
However, these three individuals really did resemble the members of the Super Ability Tiger Team so closely that they could easily be mistaken for them.
After much thought, Lin believed this was a sign of favor from above. Since he could encounter the Super Power Tiger Team here, it meant he was meant to form his own version of the "Super Power Tiger Team" in this world!
Having made this determination, Lin took the initiative to strike up a conversation with these three clowns, drawing them into his "trap."
"Brothers, I've admired you for a long time. Finally meeting you in person today—can you take me under your wing?"
Lin's flattery was spot on, and the three laughed heartily in agreement to take him to their destination.
Faced with Lin's cunning demeanor, these three boisterous clowns were no match for him. Just a few words of flattery revealed their true intentions.
The three of them also came to the Training Zone to complete a mission. They had taken on a very advanced task to search for materials at the lake, and they seemed quite mysterious about it.
As it turned out, the four of them ended up traveling together, and Lin naturally attached himself to these three jokers.
"Brother Lin, don't worry! With our Super Power Tiger Team here, you'll definitely reach your destination smoothly!"
Wu Qilong patted Lin on the shoulder and laughed as he walked ahead. The four of them walked with their arms around each other, making it look like they were all part of the Super Power Tiger Team to anyone who didn't know better!
...
Not long after exiting the teleportation portal, Lin and his companions arrived at the boundary of the Training Zone.
The boundary is a landmark area of the Training Zone, where countless large pillars stand tall. These Metal Pillars reach heights of over a hundred meters, with one visible every few kilometers.
Each of these Metal Pillars is equipped with Beast Repellers. The invisible sound waves emitted can create a sense of threat for beasts, keeping them away from the campus area.
Leaving the range of the Metal Pillars means that Lin and his companions are about to enter the real Training Zone.
Inside the Training Zone, there are fierce beasts that can only be dealt with by warriors above the Thirty Levels. Given Lin's low strength, he could only hang around the outskirts. Fortunately, he had these three level-zero "big shots" leading him forward; otherwise, it would have been quite difficult to reach the lake.
Thus, Lin's journey through the Training Zone with the three jokers began!
