Chapter 2 - New Opportunity

Wu Ling walks down the alley with nothing but with a disappointed look on his face, as he walks towards the bus station to go home he gave a final glance to his surroundings and he noticed that this place is very quiet as he move forward he saw a woman on hers 50s cleaning the fallen leaves on street under the tree.

Since he came here it is the first person insight of Him beside him. He didn't know what is wrong this place? Why it is so quite here? So he decided to go and ask her?

Ummm! excuse me. The old lady stop cleaning and looked at him. Wu ling continued to speak can you tell me why this place is so quite?

Are you new here young man? the old lady replied.

Yes.

What are you doing here?

Well this morning I got a call for a job interview.

That's wierd.

Why? why? it is weird.

Because they rarely call for people to get a job.

Why is it so?

Because in this place most of the people who lives here and go for work are scavengers.

'Scavengers' Wu ling exclaimed!

Yes, at least this what I heard from the people.

So, who are they? Are they some kind of I don't know what to say here?

No, they are just a group of people who goes on the deep forests and mountains for exploring and for research purposes.

And that's what they call themselves Scavengers didn't they get a normal name.

After getting why this is so wierd? Wu ling move ahead from there and decided to wait for his bus. After sometime a group of 5 people arrived there 4 men and 1 woman. The all looks all sturdy and muscular.

As for the women as she walked down there, his heads turns and gazes lingered on her stunning appearance. Her beauty was breathtaking and it was evident that every detail of her appearance has been meticulously crafted, Her hair was like silk, falling in loose curls around her face, shimmering in light like strands of spun gold. Her figure was graceful and elegant, with curves in all the right places that accentuated her beauty even further. Her slain was flawless, smooth and radiant like porcelain, with gentle blush that lent her face face a soft and alluring glow, her lips were full and luscious. Wu ling wondered why a woman like her is with them?

They all have heavy backpacks on their back as they were going for tracking in the mountains or forest. They all came and sat beside him. From them a guy with a short height spoken. They needed more people for this mission, Wu ling can't help but overheard them.

One of the guy looked at Wu ling. He was a man that exuded danger. From the sharp angles of his angular face to the predatory glint in his eyes, everything about him seemed to suggest that he was not to be trifled with.

His face was chiseled and hard, with high cheekbones and a strong jawline that seemed almost sculpted from stone. His eyes were a piercing blue, deep set and framed by thick, dark brows that seemed to arch in a perpetual scowl.

His hair was short and dark, tousled and unkempt, as if he had just emerged from a fierce battle. And indeed, his entire demeanor suggested that he was a man who was not afraid to get his hands dirty.

He stood tall and lean, with broad shoulders and a powerful build that seemed to ripple with latent strength. His clothes were simple and utilitarian, suggesting a man who was more concerned with function than fashion.

But it was the weapons that he carried that truly set him apart. From the long, curved sword strapped to his back to the set of throwing knives at his waist, everything about him seemed designed for one purpose: to kill.

Despite his dangerous appearance, however, there was something captivating about him. Perhaps it was the confidence with which he carried himself, or the sense of quiet strength that seemed to radiate from his very being.

Whatever it was, one thing was certain: this was not a man to be taken lightly. For he was a force to be reckoned with, a dangerous looking guy who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

He looked at Wu ling asked him what he was doing here? Wu ling replied to him he was here for a job interview. Okay did you get the job Li Mo asked him? Li Mo was the guy name, he was the leader of the team. No, Wu ling replied. After thinking for a while Li Mo asked him if he was interested in joining them.

Suddenly all the other members looked at him and once again the guy with a shorter hair complains that how he can ask someone just he met to join them. Li Mo looked at him with shut up looking eyes. He stopped talking, he was waiting for a reply from Wu ling. Wu ling looked at him and said I don't know who you all are? And what you guys doing?

As a replied he said to him we are team of hunters or you can call us scavengers. As for the work we do various types of from rescuing people to researching to investigating the unknown. As it sounds interesting Wu ling didn't know whether he should accept the offer or not. After thinking for a while he said okay to him. How long will he be depends on his parents for money. It's time for him to stand up on his feet.

As they were talking a bus came. It was not Wu ling's bus, it was for the scavengers. As the five of them starts to get on the bus Li Mo looked at him and said get on the bus. Wu ling got surprised when he was told to join them. He didn't think it was from now on. He listens to him and gets on the bus and they move from there. After getting on the bus in about 3 hours they arrived the last bus station from there they went on foot to the forest area. Wu ling also went on the forest in past but he never seen such a forest in his entire life.

As Wu ling stepped in the mysterious forest for the first time, he was struck by the beauty and tranquility of his surroundings. The forest was dense and canopy overheard was so thick that it created a dim and hazy ambiance, yet it was full of life.

As they all walk deeper into the forest, Wu ling noticed a variety of trees that he have never seen before, with their leaves rustling gently in the cool breeze. He saw patches of wild flowers in every direction, with hues of pink, blue and yellow blending seamlessly into one another.

As they move further, he began to see the prestige inhabitants which were a variety of animals that were hidden away in dense under brush. He saw rabbits darting across his path, squirrels scurrying up trees trunks. As they go deeper and deeper on woods Wu ling found himself awestruck by the sheer beauty of the forest. The sunlight that shown through the canopy created on ethereal glow, and the soft rustling of the leaves created a peaceful and calming atmosphere. Overall Wu ling was mesmerised by the forest beauty, and he knew that he would never forget his first encounter with this mysterious and magical place.
