Chapter 95

This time, the demon insects attacked the city, so that the third-class residents who participated in the war finally got the weight of the demon insects, which was comparable to the harvest of going out for half a month.

Although some keen people felt that this situation was not normal, there was no news to be revealed whether it was the City Lord's Mansion or anything else, and as soon as it was calm and natural, those people would not bring it up with their mouths, thinking that they were too careful.

Thor used a gray oilcloth to wrap the obtained demon worm in his pocket, and carried a cloth bag several times larger than his body to go home with Jian Lu. The strength of the third-class resident was obviously very large, carrying such a large bag of things, he did not have the slightest sense of condensation, his expression was relaxed, and his steps were brisk.

At this time, the sky was bright, and there were many people coming and going on the streets, and there were many people who were selling on the street on the spot, selling the magic insects harvested today. They separated the core, shell, and meat of the demon worm, each with different prices, among which the worm core is the most expensive and can be used for energy, followed by the worm shell, which can be used as a weapon or a shield, and the worm meat is the cheapest, it is just a cheap food, and it is also the staple food of this world.

As seen by Jian Lu, the resources of this continent are very few, and people's staple food has become the meat of demon insects, the more powerful the demon insects, the more delicious its flesh is, the richer the energy of the insect core, and the more sophisticated the weapons made by the insect shells. However, it is not easy for a demon insect to evolve, there are more low-level demon insects, and most people in this world feed on it.

Jian Lu has been here for more than half a month, and it seems that he has never seen any other creatures except for the demon insects, such as the magical beasts that occupy half of the country in the Olawen Continent, and he has never seen them at all. He couldn't help but guess in his heart, maybe the demonic beasts did not exist in this continent, and the main biological structures here were humans and demon insects, unlike the Olawen Continent, which was more abundant in species.

When they returned to Thor's house, they saw Leia waiting for them in the dimly lit living room, and it was clear from the way she waited that she had been waiting here since Thor had left the house.

It was a mother's fear of her son, who had gone out to fight, and it wasn't until he returned safely that the tight heartstrings relaxed.

"Leia, I'm back." Thor said happily, "Today's harvest is good, and we can eat these worms for half a month." ”

Leia first asked him if he was injured, and after learning that he was not injured, she was happy for today's harvest, which proved that there would be half a month when Thor would not have to go out of town to hunt.

Thor put the pile of insect corpses in the small living room, and when he opened the cloth bag, a fishy smell came to his nose, but Leia and Thor seemed to be used to the smell, and they took advantage of the fact that the magic insects were still fresh, and first dug out their cores, separated the insect meat from the insect shells, and discarded the parts that could not be eaten, and the insect meat was marinated with stone salt and a kind of powder, which could be left for several months.

This is the way of life of the third-class inhabitants, rough and simple, just to survive.

Jian Lu looked at it for a while, then entered the room and closed the door.

Thor glanced at him secretly, he had heard of people from that legendary continent, and he had heard that they generally did not eat insect meat, so Jian Lu's behavior seemed normal to him. It's just that as a native of Fuke City, he can't imagine what kind of food the humans of the legendary continent feed on, their way of life, he seems to have not eaten since yesterday, isn't he hungry?

It took half a day for Thor and Leia to deal with the demon insects, Leia cooked a pot of insect meat, and put flavor-enhancing seasonings in the meat, which is a powder extracted from minerals, which can be eaten by humans, and there is nothing dangerous, so that most of the smell of insect meat is gone, and it is not so terrible.

"Thor, you send this bowl of meat to the gentleman." Leia handed Thor a bowl of worm meat.

Thor couldn't explain Jian Lu's identity to Leia, so he answered, went to knock on the door, and after getting an answer from inside, pushed the door and entered.

Inside, Thor found that the human magician was not resting, but sitting cross-legged on the ground, studying the mess piled up in the corner.

When Thor saw those things, he couldn't help blushing a little, and hurriedly said: "This is a weapon that I have made by myself, and they are all half-finished products that have not been successful. Seeing that he didn't respond, Thor said again, "Your Excellency, it's time for lunch." ”

Jian Lu glanced at the bowl of insect meat and shook his head.

Thor took it and gulped it down.

Sure enough, the meat finally entered his stomach.

Jian Lu ignored him, and continued to study the half-finished weapons on the ground, as well as the materials of the weapons, but let him study something, and then looked at Thor, and found that this strange human had a pair of skillful hands, and these weapons were very good.

After Thor finished eating the meat, he was about to get up to leave, but was stopped by the human magician, who had been silent.

"Wait, I have something to say."

Jian Lu got up, walked to the bed and sat down, and then motioned for Thor to sit on the only stone chair in the room.

His face was very pale, and his thin body exuded an aura of weakness, and if it weren't for the way he saw his methods of dealing with demon insects yesterday, Thor would have thought he was vulnerable. But in fact, although this magician did not have many chances to make a move, it made Thor intuitively feel dangerous, which is why Thor did not think about making any small moves, otherwise he would not have been able to bring a stranger home to contact Leia.

"What is this place?"

Thor struggled for a few moments before he understood what he meant, and replied, "The Lost Lands, Fork City." ”

After a difficult exchange of magic, Jian Lu finally learned about the existence of this continent and some simple information from Thor.

The Lost Lands, a continent forgotten by the gods after the Great War of the Gods.

Most of the humans living in the Lost Lands are descendants of the races that fought during the Great War of the Gods, and later the continent was destroyed by divine power, and the Lost Continent became a space of its own, and was forced to wander outside the Olawen Continent to form a continent in another space. For thousands of years, for some reason, human beings have evolved into the human beings seen in Jian Lu, and a new race has been formed, and even multiplied here.

At the time of the God War, the Lost Continent was the main battlefield of the human race and the demon race, and these demon insects were the creatures that were left on this continent with the human race at that time, and after thousands of years of development, they formed such a scale.

In fact, this is already a new continent with its own rules, and it has developed to this day, with new rules and ways of existing.

Jian Lu couldn't help coughing again, and coughed up a mouthful of blood in Thor's surprised gaze.

Glancing coldly at those light-colored eyes, Thor shuddered and hurriedly withdrew his gaze. Even if this magician was injured at this time, he was no match for him.

The two have different power systems, and in comparison, magic is more mysterious and powerful.

Drying the blood stains on his hands, Jian Lu already understood his situation, if his body was not eroded by the harmful substances in this alien continent to the final death, then he would be transformed into this big race by it.

After learning the general information of the Lost Continent, Jian Lu said to Thor: "When you are walking outside, please inquire about any strange places nearby, or what strange things have happened recently. As he spoke, his palms turned up, and there were two more bottles of potions in his hands, "This is the reward." ”

Thor's gaze instantly fell on the two potions.

Due to the harsh environment of the Lost Continent, many herbs cannot grow, making potions a rare and valuable store, even if there are apothecaries, it is difficult to make pure potions, only the main city has them, but they are all provided to big forces or capable mercenary groups, and third-class residents like them cannot have them at all.

Thor was willing to make the deal, and said, "Do you have a potion to heal your eyes?" Leia was blind in one eye, but the other was still intact, but gradually she could not see it because of the poisonous gas. If there is a brightener, her eyes will be able to regain light. ”

Jian Lu looked at him for a while before he understood what he meant and nodded.

Although he doesn't have an eye-catching agent, he can make zuΓ².

Thor became excited, and if it weren't for the remnants of his sanity that restrained him, he couldn't help but run outside to tell SΓΉleia the good news. He was glad that he had gone to stalagmite yesterday, met this human magician, and brought him back to Falk City, without revealing his identity to his superiors for the sake of that bounty.

From time to time, there are legends that people from the mainland have strayed into the spatial passage and come to the Lost Continent, and once these people appear, they will be enveloped by various major forces, and even sent to the central main city, as for what will happen to them, no one cares. The only thing they know for sure is that the people in the central main city are very concerned about people from the Legendary Continent, and every time someone appears, they will send a lot of manpower and material resources to capture them.

"Thank you, Your Excellency." Thor bowed to Jane.

The process of making eyesight potion is a bit complicated, but Jian Lu has learned it before, and it is not difficult. There are still many kinds of potion materials he had collected before, including the materials of the eyesight elixir, Jian Lu spent half a day to make a few bottles of the eyesight elixir, and when Thor brought him dinner in the evening, he threw the prepared bottle of the eyesight potion to him.

"One bottle has a year's effect, and I have ten bottles here."

After Thor understood the meaning of his words, he immediately said, "Your Excellency, don't worry, I understand. "Although this human mage did not know the situation he was in, he acted methodically, even very cautiously, and kept his hands in his hands, so that no amount of thought could only be suppressed.

After getting a bottle of eyesight elixir, Thor also conveyed his kindness to him, "Your Excellency's identity is sensitive, it's best not to go out casually, even if you go out, don't let people see your appearance." ”

After Jian Lu recognized the meaning of his words, he glanced at him with some meaning, and then nodded silently.

***

In the following days, there would still be demon worms attacking the city every few days, and as the number of demon worms dispatched more and more, it finally made people feel unusual, even if the city lord's mansion did not reveal any news, but people were not stupid, and naturally found something from some laws.

Jeffers hid the insect blood from his face, looked at the demon insects that were still attacking in the morning light, and suddenly said, "Thor, isn't your friend's injury healed?" ”

After a night of fighting, Thor's spirit was a little tired, but he did not let his guard down, he kicked the demon insect that climbed to the edge of the wall, and said, "Yes, he is injured more severely, and he still needs to rest." ”

Jeffers thought thoughtfully, "Looks like he appeared half a month ago, right?" Where did you meet him? ”

"Over there with stalagmites." Thor replied, suddenly glancing at him, and a somewhat innocent smile appeared on his somewhat immature face, "Jeffers, why did you suddenly ask about him?" This friend of mine is a desert hunter who often walks in the desert, and if he hadn't been injured too badly this time, he wouldn't have returned to Fox City with me. ”

This seems to be an explanation, so that the doubts in Jeffrick's mind are answered, but there are more questions.

At this time, one of their companions suddenly shouted, "Hey, don't talk, there are demon worms again...... God, it's a two-winged worm! Really NND bad luck! ”

At the same time, Thor and Jeffok saw the demon insects flying from the sky in the morning light, and the transparent wings refracted the colorful luster in the morning light, and their faces suddenly changed.

The Winged Demon Worm has been active near the Demon Forest, and it rarely appears in the harsh environment of the desert, but at this moment, there is a Winged Demon Worm here, what does it mean?

The buildings of Falk City are mainly defended against the demon insects in the desert, and these demon insects generally cannot fly, and even if they can jump, they cannot jump high. But at this moment, in the face of this group of flying demon insects, the residents of Fork City panicked, not only alarming the first and second class residents of the city, but even the city lord Frian appeared in a hurry.

Jian Lu was sitting in front of the magic lamp, drawing a magic scroll, when he suddenly heard a violent knock on the door outside, and then Leia's voice sounded.

"Who!"

"Leia, hurry up and open the door, Thor is injured."

A messy sound sounded, Leia opened the door, and saw Thor who was carried back by Jeffers and others, and saw the bloody wounds on his body, Leia's tears came out instantly.

"Leia, Thor was attacked by the Winged Demon Worm, there are Demon Worms everywhere outside, we have to go out to fight, go first." Jeffers didn't have time to say more, and hurried away again.

After Jeffers and the others left, Jian Lu came out of the inner room.

Leia was checking on her son's injuries and found the deep bone wound in his abdomen and chest, and the tears were falling again. Thor was unconscious at this point, and the wounds were simply dressed with powder, and the blood was still flowing slowly, and there was a smell of blood in the room.

Finding Jian Lu coming out, Leia glanced up at him and didn't pay attention to him, but re-cleaned Thor's wounds, and then bandaged them carefully. She is very skilled in her movements and has a good dressing technique, which she has obviously done many times before.

After bandaging Thor, Leia and Jian Lu moved him to his room.

When Leia went to boil the medicine for Thor, Jian Lu closed the door and stood on the edge of the bed and watched for a while before reaching out to cover the wound on Thor's chest, and the white soft light on his hand lit up.

After about ten minutes, Thor finally came to his senses.

When he woke up, he was still a little dazed, until he saw Jian Lu standing in front of the bed looking at him expressionlessly, he couldn't help but be startled, when he felt that the wound in his chest and abdomen that had made him painful was only an itch, he couldn't help but be surprised, and when he opened the bandage, the wound was actually scarring, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

Jian Lu threw him another bottle of potion.

"Thank you, Your Excellency." Thor said gratefully.

"How's it going out there?"

"It's not going to be good." Thor looked a little worried, "When I heard those first-class people chatting before, it seemed that the sorcerer had found something in divination, which would lead the demon insects to riot and attack the city, and I don't know the specific things. ”

Jian Lu thought about it, this unusual situation made him feel extremely unsimple, and he even had an intuition in his heart, which seemed to be related to Hines.

As she was thinking, Leia came in with a bowl of medicine and was shocked to see that the injured had woken up and could even sit up.

"Leia!" Thor screamed, glancing at Jian Lu secretly.

Leia quickly returned to her usual appearance, bowed slightly to Jian Lu, and said to Thor, "Drink the medicine first." ”

Although there are no potions with excellent effects, these potions are also a medicine that circulates among their third-class residents, and the effect is not very good, but it is better than nothing. In addition to having a fierce spirit, the third-class residents also have a strong physique, and even if they are seriously injured, as long as they are given time, they can heal.

After Jian Lu left, Thor said to Leia, "Leia, my injuries are healed, and your Excellency healed them. As he spoke, he ripped off his shirt and showed Leia his injuries, and said, "Leia, we'd better not say anything about that Excellency." ”

Leia said while checking: "Of course, I'm not confused, aren't you worried about me?" At the same time, I was a little surprised by the speed of treatment.

Hearing Leia's words, Thor couldn't help but touch his head and laugh, laughing a little silly, which made Leia couldn't help but laugh.

When she was young, she often hunted in the wild, and was a desert hunter with good combat effectiveness, but if she hadn't been blinded in one eye in a battle, and the other eye was gradually blinded by poisonous gas, she would not have retreated into the background. Thor's hunting skills were actually taught by her, and even his behavior has her shadow.

From the beginning, she felt that the person brought back by her son was unusual, and now this hand made her understand that this person should be a human magician, and maybe a light magician, this is the light magician that the central main city has been looking for, if it is known by the people of the main city, it will definitely be captured by the people of the main city.

The other party saved her son, and if he didn't want to be exposed, Leia naturally wouldn't be ungrateful to expose his identity.

This siege of the demon worm lasted until noon, causing heavy casualties in the city of Fork. This is also the first time in recent years that there have been such heavy casualties, which makes the city lord Frian very sad, and at the same time, he is faintly uneasy, for fear that those king insects will run out of the magic forest, and then a third-rate city like Fuk City, which is located in the desert, will have only one way to destroy it.

The corners of Frian's mouth bubbled up because of this, but he had no choice but to go to find the sorcerer.

"I can't help it." The sorcerer sighed, "I can't even tell what the one in the demon forest is, let alone how to deal with it. Xu saw that Frian was too worried, and he continued: "But you don't have to worry, in fact, the most worried thing now is the central main city, the main city is relatively close to the Demon Forest, although there are many strong people, but they can't withstand such losses, they will act soon, you just need to wait with peace of mind." ”

Frian frowned, "Can only wait?" "Aren't the casualties going on?

"There's no way around it." The sorcerer sighed.

The sigh weighed heavily on Frieden's head, and his heart was heavy.

Next, Frian received news from several other cities closest to Fork City, and they were also attacked by demon insects, and the number of demon insects attacking the city was more than ever, and even many demon insects that should not appear in that area had crossed the border, this unusual situation also made several other city lords worried.

At this time, all the people who received the warning from the wizards couldn't help but pay attention to the mysterious magic forest, and they all guessed what powerful thing came there to force out the king insects lurking in the demon forest? If even the king of demon insects is forced out by it, can humans deal with it?

There are even some pessimists who have a feeling of despair in their hearts, feeling that this is the catastrophe of the lost continent.

After the war of the gods, the gods abandoned this continent.

Now, once again, God has forsaken it.

*****

In the depths of the Demon Forest, there is a towering tree with countless annual rings, densely packed, covering the sky and the sun.

This is the most mysterious place in the center of the Lost Continent, and it is also the most resource-rich place, but it is the territory of the evolved insect kings, although the humans and the Saketo people are all looking at this place, but because of the strong strength of the king insects living in it, they have nothing to do.

And at this time, in the depths of this calm and mysterious forest, suddenly a vast and powerful coercion spread from the center, and everywhere it passed, those king insects who lived in the demon forest and were equally powerful couldn't help but tremble and crawl on the ground, and even some weak king insects living outside the periphery fled from the demon forest in panic.

As the powerful coercion spread, a rumbling sound followed, and the trees in the depths of the dense forest collapsed and were destroyed by a powerful force, and the nearby insect kings looked at the depths of the demon forest in horror, and had to retreat step by step.

A moment later, a dragon's groan rang out.

The sky roared, and the heavens and the earth shook.

In the depths of the dense forest, among the green shadows, a golden shadow loomed, swept quickly, and soon disappeared into the dense forest.
