Reborn NPC: I'm really not the protagonist!

"Ms. Hill, what are we going to do?"

"........."

"Ms. Hill, how about..."

"Wow——!"

In the dark corridor and canyon of the underground world, Hill stopped suddenly with veins bulging on his forehead as he listened to the endless questions from the person behind him.

"....Little Hill..."

"Don't call me, Miss." Hill turned back coldly, looked into Ye Ao's weird face, and spoke viciously.

As a member of a high-intensity surfing group, she was more or less aware of the ambiguity of the term.

"Then what should I call you?" Ye Ao nodded immediately and asked.

He felt like he had made a fortune at this moment. He had somehow gotten on the protagonist's good side. Wouldn't he have to hold on tightly?

"........" Hill suddenly fell silent. Looking at Ye Ao, the monster that was neither human nor ghost, he thought for a long time and said silently: "Call me master."

"Ah?" Ye Ao was stunned and stayed there for a long time. Only when Xier turned around and left did he come to his senses and immediately followed him, shouting, "Master!"

"puff!!"

Hill was choked by his saliva, staggered, and turned back in shock: "You...really screaming?"

"Didn't you ask me to call you?" Ye Ao chuckled twice and smiled awkwardly.

Just now he didn't think about anything, he just wanted to hold the protagonist's thigh tightly, how could he care about so many things, now it seems... it seems that the other party is just making fun of him...

It seems like I have discovered a new side of the protagonist...

He thought about it carefully and smiled at Hill: "Boss, does this sound better?"

"........"

Hill was silent and narrowed his eyes slightly.

I am so arrogant, what can I do to you? I have never heard of such a person in my previous life. I guess he is not very talented in gaming.

Judging from his performance... he should be enjoying the game and getting into the role. But judging by the face-pinching, he is probably a social phobia.

"That's all." She snorted, as if in silence, and then continued walking forward.

"Boss, if we go further we will reach the ruins. What are we going to do there?" Ye Ao followed without hesitation and started asking again.

Hill did not answer, but slowly raised her hand. Magic power continued to gather in her palm. The next moment, a translucent two-handed battle axe appeared in her hand.

"In the words of you, the Chosen One..."

Only then did she slowly turn her head and look at Ye Ao: "We are going to level up!"

Ye Ao slightly widened his pupils, paused for a moment, and laughed: "Boss, you seem to know a lot about us Chosen Ones..."

"Well," Hill did not deny it, carrying the battle axe on his shoulder: "Listen, you should know that you are much more mediocre than the captain and the two chosen ones taken away by Knimu, right?"

"........."

Ye Ao suddenly fell silent and stopped talking.

Of course he knew that during the days he fought side by side with Buyu, Xianyu Songguo and the others, he could increasingly feel the tragic gap in talent between them.

This is an irreparable talent. Maybe this is just a game and there is nothing to be unwilling about, but... anyone who finds himself or herself drifting away from his or her partners who fought side by side with him or her would feel uncomfortable.

He really wanted to squeeze into Buyu's circle, especially for a social leader, but he couldn't squeeze in...

"So if you want to be on par with them, it is almost impossible to rely on fighting skills..." Hill glanced at Ye Ao's expression and continued.

Ye Ao pondered for a long time, then suddenly raised his head, smiled heartily, and shrugged: "I know, but..."

"But winning a battle is never as simple as just relying on talent," Hill interrupted Ye Ao's speech and suddenly said, "No matter how amazing the talent is, it can't make up for the gap brought by pure strength."

"What's more..." At this point, Hill suddenly smiled and said, "You also have something that they don't have, don't you?"

What she was talking about, of course, was Ye Ao's sense of smell and details about the development of the plot!

Why is Ye Ao here, and why can he team up with Buyu and the others? If Buyu has unique talent and luck, then what about Ye Ao?

He also has his own luck, and is even more sharp!

"If they want to practice combat techniques and learn new skills, let them do it. After all, any learning has only one purpose... to become stronger!"

Hill spoke slowly and stopped at the intersection. Behind him was a swarm of insects that continued to gather.

[Hill invites you to join a team. Accept/Reject]

Ye Ao was shocked when he saw the prompt that suddenly popped up.

Can NPCs actually form a team on their own initiative?!

He accepted it without hesitation.

Hill turned around and said slowly: "So, why don't we use the simplest and most brutal method to become stronger..."

"No skills? Unfair? I don't care..." She said quietly: "Since ancient times, those who are good at fighting have no great achievements (generals who are good at fighting often do not have great achievements because they often form an advantageous situation of outnumbering others). Victory is the kingly way..."

"In other words..." Hill said, then suddenly stopped and glanced at Ye Ao behind him: "I have given you the simplest and most effective improvement. If you are still not as good as them by then, you will die!"

"So the last sentence is the key point!!" Ye Ao was stunned and immediately came to his senses.

It seems that the protagonist said a lot of cool things, and even he was almost immersed in the role. It turns out that he just didn't want to lose to others!

Isn't this just a child being angry? Am I so irritating? Isn't it just that she was assigned the weakest one! ?

He finally understood that Hill was simply holding back his anger and competing with his two companions.

The previous words translated into plain language means: I will help you level up, you'd better do well for me!

But at this time Hill no longer answered, but picked up the heavy axe and swung it at the oncoming swarm of insects.

[Combat Skill: Sweep!]

Dual wielding weapons is cumbersome and violent, and in an instant, dozens of evil souls are captured.

Ye Ao became excited as he looked at his experience bar which suddenly increased.

At this rate, you can level up in half an hour at most!

It's not impossible to crush someone by relying on numbers!

You know, he was recruited into the group by Buyu and the others because he worked hard for a few days and his level was high enough!

Now Buyu is already level 15, and I am only level 13, which means I am already quite far behind. If I continue at this pace, I will be able to overtake him in no time!

"Boom!"

For a moment, the drums of war sounded, and the sharp blade of the double-edged axe was like a fan, taking away swarms of insects while madly harvesting evil souls and experience.

In just a few hours, the number of evil spirits in Hill's Soul Prison had exceeded one thousand! The damage had increased significantly, and Ye Ao had even leveled up three times in a row, completely surpassing Bu Yu!

Hill's experience was almost full, but the two of them had to retreat to the camp.

The supplies they had prepared earlier had been used up. If they didn't run away, they would never be able to return! Even if the insect bites were painless, they could still drown them alive!

It was at this time that Fina and Knimu also came to the camp from the surface with a long team, of course...including Alice.
