Chapter 247: Acting Alone
Bonfires were lit in the camps that had already been established. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAfter the huge trees were cut down, they were split into wooden blocks, and the flames that burned brightly lit up all around. Several mercenaries dispersed, keeping watch around the perimeter. The creatures on this small island are so large that they are beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. The land of giants, worthy of its name, no longer has the same joy as when they discovered this island, and they are becoming more and more cautious, because if they are not careful, they will fall into death at any time.
There was a soft sound of "buzz-", and a fluorescent light suddenly passed through the air, and then there was a dull sound of "bang", and a puddle of juice splashed around the sound. When everyone in the camp ran to look, a huge black spider more than two people tall had been pierced and lay dead on the ground.
They came silently, and even the vigilant mercenaries didn't notice it. This huge big guy actually borrowed the color of his body to come quietly in the dark night, if he really let him break into the camp, it would be a disaster, and I don't know how many people will die.
Thinking about it, it felt terrifying, and a mercenary couldn't help but step forward, intending to kick the dead spider with his foot, but was grabbed by Jia Huan, shook his head and said, "If you don't want to die, don't touch it, especially the spilled juice." As he spoke, he pointed to a few sticks of grass next to him.
The grass had withered. The color is whitish, and it looks like it has been burned by fire. This made the mercenary gasp, if his feet were stained with that juice, he was afraid that he would be wasted.
"It's very acidic, it's corrosive. Try to cover up the spilled juice with dirt as much as possible. And also...... Light a bonfire on the periphery as well. It's not enough to have a campfire in the center. Jia Huan said to the team leader, "Let's start letting people do it now!"
Obviously, he was the team leader, but he just felt that Jia Huan's words had to be done and it was the right choice, so he didn't bother anything, and directly began to order the people under him to start lighting the bonfire. The camp has gathered five squads, and it's quick to get things done.
After Jia Huan finished the order, he didn't participate in it, but just sat with Anne and watched. Then, when everything was arranged, he and Anne moved into the tent that the mercenaries had set up for them.
Nothing terrible happened that night. The vigilant mercenaries were very nervous, and they used night vision devices this time, but fortunately nothing happened, and when it was dawn, everyone breathed a long sigh of relief. The light of the day gives people some confidence,
In the morning, another team came to work, and the road was finally opened. Armored vehicles began to be stationed in the camp. The camp also began to grow in size. The huge spider was also dragged away. When towing away, a team leader deliberately explained the precautions to those who transported them.
The camp has expanded again. The presence of armored vehicles emboldened the mercenaries. It's a powerful weapon against these giant monsters. Of course, this is just a psychological comfort for them. You know, those giant monsters are even much bigger than these armored vehicles.
After the camp expanded, the people on the freighter began to gather towards the camp one after another, basically most of the people came, and only the crew and some left-behind reserve personnel and scientific researchers engaged in research were left on the side of the freighter. After all, all the research equipment is on a freighter, and it is not easy to move.
Emilia followed. After she came to the camp, she went to look for Jia Huan as soon as possible. The mercenary showed her the way, and then she walked a short way ahead, where there was a large lake. On the rocks on the edge of the lake, two people sit, side by side, one of them also holding a fishing rod.
Emilia didn't speak, just walked up to them and stood there. But Jia Huan and Anne sat there motionless and fished as if they didn't know she was coming. Suddenly, seeing the fishing rod sinking, Jia Huan suddenly put the fishing rod away. Immediately, I saw the sound of a splash of water stirring on the water surface.
A huge fish was pulled out of the water, more than a man's length. But this fish was very strange, it was pulled out of the water without the slightest struggle, and then it was thrown to the grass with the fishing rod, and with a "snap", it fell to the ground, and it jumped twice and then did not move.
This is obviously a live fish, and it is such a big live fish, it was actually caught by Jia Huan like this, and he didn't struggle. I've never seen such a stupid fish. I couldn't help but praise twice and said, "It seems that you really have a hand at fishing." I've seen two creatures that have been brought back to the cargo ship. ”
"Then why don't you stay on the boat and do research?" Jia Huan didn't look back, threw the hook into the water, and said slowly, "I just want to improve my life." The mercenaries are going to have to change their tastes, too. As he spoke, four mercenaries came, all of whom smiled and waved at Jia Huan.
"Oh, this fish has met Mr. Jia, it can only be regarded as unlucky!" one of the mercenaries smiled at Jia Huan with a somewhat flattering smile, "We will leave Mr. Jia a dish of the best and most tender fish grilled." ”
Jia Huan just smiled and waved his hand. The mercenaries had already picked up the fish and walked towards the camp. I continued fishing, but within a few minutes, another fish was hooked. As soon as Jia Huan mentioned it, a fish was caught again, and it seemed to be the same as the fish last time, without any resistance, and only after falling to the ground, did it jump twice.
This fish was even bigger than the one just now, almost three people in length. This big fish was caught by Jia Huan so easily and casually. Such a big, heavy fish was thrown up by the fishing rod at will, and Emilia felt a little numb, which was incredible.
There is also something that makes Emilia even more numb, that is, Jia Huan stopped fishing at this time. And she clearly saw the hook on the fishing rod, which turned out to be straight. I can't help but be dumbfounded, yes, is there anything more unbelievable than this?
"Hey, Mr. Jia!" Seeing that Jia Huan was leaving, and didn't intend to pay attention to himself, he couldn't help but say, "Can you wait a while!" I think...... I have something to say to you!"
Jia Huan stopped, looked at Amilia, and then smiled slightly: "Okay, where do you want to say?"
"Can we go over there, just the two of us!" Emilia said expectantly to Jia Huan, pointing to a shade of a green tree on the other side of the lake, "It's a good place, and no one is coming to disturb us, just the two of us!" she emphasized "two people" again.
This made Anne a little dissatisfied, she snorted softly and looked at Jia Huan. Jia Huan touched her head and said, "Wait for me here, let those mercenaries take the fish." I'll be back soon, you go to the camp and wait for me!" he said, gesturing at Emilia to let her come ahead.
Emilia was also polite, and walked in front of her, walking towards the green place. Jia Huan then followed. Anne stomped her foot, snorted, and reluctantly walked towards the camp. After a while, a few more men came and carried the big fish away.
Now these people are not so shocked by such a huge thing. Because all the creatures here seem to be one word - big. Even mosquitoes are the size of a fist. The masked text can be killed directly with a gun. And I'm afraid of the mosquito repellent that these mercenaries brought over. There's nothing to be afraid of.
In the shade of the tree, Jia Huan sat on the ground and motioned for Emilia to sit down as well. But Emilia insisted on standing. She looked at Jia Huan, then took a breath and said, "I have studied the mythological systems of various countries. I also have some knowledge of the Chinese mythological system. So...... I've been keeping an eye on you these days!"
When Jia Huan heard this, he nodded and said, "You are good, when everyone is staring at Anne, it is rare that you can lock your eyes on me." Say, what are you going to do?"
"I don't want to do anything, because I don't have the ability and no reason or condition for you to do anything. Emilia laughed, "You must belong to a branch of the Chinese mythological system, and I know that this branch must belong to Taoism, if it were Buddhism, you would not have come here with you." They pay attention to personal self-cultivation. Taoism, on the other hand, focuses on personal practice. ”
Although it's just a one-word difference. In Chinese, it's just a word difference, but the meaning is very different. Because cultivating the mind is to live in the world, and if you are outside of things, the four major ones are empty. Practice, on the other hand, is to enter the WTO, devote oneself to the red dust, and sharpen one's mind. It seems that this woman is really not simple, even the two major Chinese doctrines can point out the difference between them.
"I have to say, your vision is very unique!" Jia Huan didn't hide what she meant, and actually acquiesced, "You just want to explain this? If so, then our conversation should end here." ”
Emilia pursed her lips, as if she had made a decision, and said to Jia Huan: "I'm just a scientist who comes to conduct research, no, in fact, in the final analysis, the objects of my research are the myths and legends of various countries, and I came here to confirm the view that legends are actually facts." ”
"Don't say you're only here for your papers!" Jia Huan couldn't help but laugh.
Emilia actually nodded: "It's just a part, more importantly, I want to find some clues...... That is, in the kingdom of Warners, is there a god who abandons his wife? When she said this, her face was very calm, but her eyes kept looking into the distance.
Jia Huan didn't speak, waiting for her next step. Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Emilia said, "I have no interest in studying the genes of any living things, and I don't want to live longer like them. So...... There's no point in staying in this team, so let's go it alone. Together, we!"
