"Since then, the captain has never let any team member walk at the very back," Zhou Dynasty said, a hint of nostalgia in his voice.
Li Luo nodded blankly. "That 'Li Mingfu,' he was also one of your teammates, but he was 'stolen,' wasn't he?"
"Yes." Zhou Dynasty sighed. "He was already fifty-two years old and had entered the abyss very early on. Back then, you didn't even need a relic to enter the second level."
"He didn't have any special skills. He was usually a man of few words and didn't talk much with us younger guys."
"Every time we explored a Sky Island, he always liked to walk at the very back. He'd say it was so he could keep an eye on every team member, but we all knew the back of the line was the most dangerous spot. He was just putting himself in the most dangerous position..."
"It was because no one could see him that he was 'stolen' and forgotten by us. If it weren't for the written records, we might have forgotten him completely."
