(308) Bad news, billions of dollars
There is still half a day before the arrival of the beast tide, on the top of the city wall, in the makeshift camp-
"This is the last meal, it is speculated that this wave of beasts will arrive here tomorrow morning, you have a good rest after eating this meal, leave two people to sentry, take turns, don't look at us here is the last line of defense, maybe there will be a sudden attack of monsters." ”
Ge Wen sat by the fire, this is inland, not near the sea, the temperature difference between day and night is very large, if there is no stove or anything, they may not wait for the beast tide, they will freeze themselves first.
"You guy, don't look at the bad mouth, I didn't expect the cooking to be quite delicious. ”
(Nar: 22 years old, A-class star hunter.) )
Nar gulped down the roast chicken that had just been taken out of the fire pit, and after such a long time together, the relationship between Rick and the people on the way back was getting better and better, without the previous friction, and a little smoother.
"Then you didn't speak out first? I'm not a civilized person, if you want to talk well, don't look for me. ”
Rick lightly kicked the fire pit, and a few sparks were kicked straight out.
"You two are fine, especially you, Naer, you can't stop talking, don't you let the family build a campsite?"
(Awlaki: 23 years old, A-rank star hunter.) )
Awlaki also kicked the fire pit, and this time the little spark also flew impartially to Naer's hand holding the roast chicken, and the top of their heads, that is, this house, was built by Rick and Tibina in partnership, and it was for these star hunters of the Homecoming Star to rest, and there were only five people on the Homecoming side, in addition to Nar, Gwen and A-Rank, there were also B-class John and A-class Lixia.
"Aren't you going to have another combat meeting?
Fika also pulled out a roast chicken from the fire pit, the chicken used in this roast chicken made by Rick is a relatively small kind of chicken, one person can just eat one, and in the nearby farmers, most of them raise this kind of chicken, I heard that the empire sent a star hunter to protect them, and directly sent it to Rick and each of them.
"It's okay, the specific things have been said, I'll go sit outside for a while, and you can talk. As he spoke, Gwen pulled out his roast chicken from the fire pit and walked outside, and Rick and Tibina looked at each other for a moment, and then walked out.
It's the beginning of September, and even though it's almost autumn, it's still hot during the day, but it's good that it's inland, and the temperature at night is very low, so if you take a breath of light, there will be fog.
Looking at the stars in the sky, Rick stuffed the roast chicken leg in his hand into his mouth and said softly, "Gewen, why is there such a thing as a beast tide?"
"It's probably because there are too many beasts inside, there is not enough food, or there is some powerful threat or something that forces them to move, but I think that such a large group of beasts should be caused by the lack of food inside. ”
Ge Wen also pushed his eyes as he spoke, because of the temperature difference, and he was still eating roast chicken in small bites, a layer of white fog had formed on his eyes.
"That means that the monsters in this beast tide are basically surplus, and then how do you want to eat them?" Rick looked at the forest in the distance, and couldn't help but light up his eyes, the beast tide is not only the number of monsters, but also the variety is too much, just find the usual rare monsters, wouldn't you be able to taste the taste that you can't usually eat?
"Then you think about it, under this beast tide, it's not certain whether you can survive or not, what I'm talking about is that in case, the star hunters of our two guilds are so strong, they will definitely be able to survive. ”
After Gewen finished speaking, he gulped down a piece of chicken breast, and the steaming heat was like a marshmallow in front of Gewen.
Rick shrugged his shoulders at Tibina, and the two slowly walked in the direction of their camp, Hua Qianqiu still slept early as always, and they also discussed, until the last resort, Hua Qianqiu can not use it, after all, Hua Qianqiu is also a very strong combat power, in terms of combat power of the flower, those star hunters of the return star can't compare to them.
"Rick, what did you do mysteriously that day?" As soon as Tibina's words fell, there was a "buzzing" sound outside, and the two people who heard the sound hurriedly ran outside, it turned out that the magic array made by Liu Huihui and them was activated before, and the giant magic shield directly covered the position of about thirty meters in front of this city wall, Ge Wen guessed correctly, judging from the protection range of this giant magic guide shield, this city wall is a very important high ground in this plain.
"It looks like the Star Hunters at the front are ready for battle. ”
Tibina narrowed her eyes and looked at the distant horizon, for the sake of safety, this giant magic shield was to be opened in advance, of course, the situation when the star hunters at the front of the line of defense saw the beast tide.
After a while, everyone in the camp ran out and looked at the huge glowing magic shield, and Awlaki pointed to the magic shield and said, "Can we rest for a while now?"
"Of course you can, the first line of defense is more than fifty kilometers away from us, leave two people to sentry, change every two hours, now hurry up and rest!"
Gwen waved his hand, took out a thick quilt from the storage magic, wrapped it skillfully on top of his body, and sat down in the sentry booth that Rick had made before, and looked at everyone.
After nodding to Tibina, Rick took out an overcoat from the Ring and put it on, and sat with Gwen in the sentry box.
After everyone left, Rick said softly, "Let's watch all night, I'll come in the first half of the night, and you will come in the second half of the night." ”
"Hmm. ”
In order to ensure the rest of the others, Rick and Gwen reached an agreement, and the time of the guard passed quickly, and soon came to the second half of the night, after Rick woke up the sleeping Gwen, he took out a quilt from the storage ring and covered his body.
I don't know how long he slept, he only felt that his eyes were dark, and when he opened his eyes, Ge Wen was lying on the side of his bed looking at him.
"What's wrong?"
Rick asked in a daze, it was almost dawn now, and if you looked closely, the sky had begun to glow, and the beast tide was coming.
"Just now, a front-line intelligence officer came over and said, this time it's not a tens of millions of beasts, it's hundreds of millions, and it seems that there have been demon general-level monsters, and there is more than one. What Ge Wen said undoubtedly made Rick's heart flutter, ordinary beast tides are generally ten thousand-level, million-level ones are already very few, and tens of millions are even rarer, billion-level words, maybe the entire Star Continent will not appear a few times in a hundred years.
"How is the front line? Can it hold on? Let's not tell the others until we can't hold it and retreat to the last line of defense. ”
Rick's eyes were half-open, but in fact he had released his mana perception into the air, collecting the scattered mana, which was taught to him by Shock, so that he could sense distant enemies when the mana perception distance was not enough.
"If you can hold it, it seems that other places can hold it up, let's not stay here anymore, and then prepare to make some traps, dig some trenches or something. ”
"Hmm. ”
......
I ask for a collection and recommend a ticket!
