Chapter 109: Northbound Storm Passing through the Scavenger Corridor
Lunch ended quickly, and the convoy was back on its way to the Northland. After about two hours of driving www.biquge.info the grass gradually thinned out, and the long line was out of the grassland and into the Conch Phase Plain. In the dry and slightly barren territory, it also became hot and humid in the afternoon.
The crowd in the carriage also became lethargic, and most of them lazily closed their eyes, except for Siron who insisted on his duty as a guard. Perhaps it was the buckets of meat at noon that did the job, and the dragon cart in the afternoon no longer seemed to be as bumpy as before, at least those who fell asleep on the cushions would not be woken up again.
Sheilon opened the window to sober himself up with the wind, but he could only feel a burst of heat.
"If you're sleepy, close your eyes, Lord Sir Ang. If you don't trust the dragon car so much, why waste those 10 gold coins? ”
Crewe sat down beside him and yawned. In addition to the obvious advantages of large carriages and strong load-bearing capacity, the dragon that pulls the cart is a powerful beast. With these earth dragons alone, you can dissuade a lot of unnecessary troubles along the way.
Turning his head leaning on the carriage, Hill Ang glanced at the other party and said lightly: "It seems that you have negotiated well with that female animal trainer, and you have talked to her about trust so quickly." "But I have to admit that for sniper shooters who have always been known for being a loner, trust is indeed a bit heavy.
"Lady Lucia, you say? Well, she's an interesting woman. Crewe recalled. Out of kindness, he handed the hydration bag to the other party, only to be pushed back. However, he didn't mind, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, you and your family really don't look like people all the way. ”
"What do you mean?"
On this topic, the eyes of the arrow eagle looking directly at the other party unconsciously became a little sharp.
"Hmm-" Kru raised his chin at the seat opposite, where Yu Yi and a few friends were already asleep snuggling up to each other. "Will you trust the people around you, like he did?"
"Fellow sisters and friends in distress are naturally trustworthy. I just can't trust those strangers. Sylon did not shy away from keeping his gaze on the knight's face, and it was only obvious who the stranger was in his words.
"Yes," Crewe said with a disapproving smile, "Then why did you let that man in the car?" He gestured to the beggar-looking man sitting in the far corner. The man who had received the special invitation was a polite guest, he kept his distance from the crowd, and he would never say much if no one accosted him.
Holding his arms, the blonde archer's index finger struck on his arm one by one. "Master Knight, don't you know?" He asked rhetorically.
Taking a sip of water, Crewe continued to smile: "All I know is that it's not a qualified pretender. Although he put on a beggar's 'dress', he forgot to mess his hair, his face was spotless, and there was no mud in his nails. What's more, he doesn't have the eating and sleeping posture of a beggar......"
"To see these details, I don't believe you wouldn't have seen the tattoo on his body." Shiron interrupted. At the inn, the profiteer Dario, while entangled with the "beggar", inadvertently pulled up his clothes, revealing part of the tattoo on his waist.
"You're really here for this." Speaking of this, Kru was no longer secretive, and slowly stroked the back of his hand with his thumb and asked, "Do you know that tattoo?" ”
"How many people don't know the pattern of the Church of Light? Especially in Wildfire City. ”
"So you're trying to curry favor with the church?" The knight asked.
Xi'ang's eagle eyes are not only good eyesight, but also not bad at observing words and colors, so he can naturally see the hidden abnormalities in the other party's smile. "I know that your Flame Fang Army has always been at odds with the church, but as a newcomer, it's not a fault not to offend a large organization like the church, right?"
"You're really different from your deed." Crewe closed her eyes. As if he was asleep, he stopped talking.
Now, the surroundings were completely quiet. But Sylon still brace himself and don't let himself slack off. He took out the map and slowly spread it out, the Conch Phase Plain had never been a peaceful place. Even if they are now in a convoy of dragon cars, they cannot let their guard down.
It wasn't until the evening when the dragon car stopped that the inertia made the carriage shake for a while, and Yu Yi slowly woke up. He slowly pushed away the head of the hat and Mi Wei leaning against him, and asked the sitting Hil, "How long will it take to get to that mountain range?" After sleeping like this for a few days, my neck was getting sick. ”
"At this rate, it is expected that there will be two days to go." Sylon looked at the map and replied, "But I've already entered the Conch Phase Plains, and I should have passed through many towns, villages, camps, and other places along the way. At that time, at least you won't have to sleep in the car anymore. ”
"Why didn't you ...... before that?" only half asked, and Yu Yi also understood the reason. I'm afraid that during the beast tide, those human stations in the Datans grassland have been swept over.
"Say what?" Mi Wei, who woke up in a daze, rubbed her eyes and asked.
"It's nothing, the car is parked, it should be dinner." Yu Yi diverted from the topic just now and said, "Although that fat man's craftsmanship is not as good as Debie, but when he is hungry, he can't care about the taste." ”
The wind hat slapped him and smiled: "Big brother, you eat the most every time, okay?" ”
After everyone woke up, they got out of the car one after another.
What made Yu Yi feel a little strange was that today's dinner time was advanced, and it was a lot earlier. Usually, it would be at least 11 o'clock in the evening before the convoy stopped. And now, it's just evening. However, seeing that the beast tamer who climbed down from the dragon's back in front of him looked like a national enemy and a hater, he was not ready to come forward to ask.
This kind of thing naturally has to be asked by the right person.
As he fetched it, he gave him a few silver coins, and the fat chef immediately spoke enthusiastically.
"There's nothing that can't be said," said the fat man after putting away the coins, "and the next road to be taken is the 'Scavengers' Corridor, and we have always been on this path, and it is best to travel overnight." ”
"Isn't it peaceful here?" Mo Fang next to him also asked.
It is estimated that a lot of money has been collected today, and the fat man no longer asks for money from Fang Face, and simply replied: "Warcraft, wanderers, robbers...... You can get into almost any kind of trouble here, and you won't want to stop overnight in such a place. Rest assured, there will be plenty of places to rest after here, but the team will pay for you to sleep in a hotel. "It's not because the team is generous, it's just that the cost of these accommodations has long been counted in the initial gold payment.
"Why don't you go the other way?" Sylon looked at the map for an afternoon, and naturally saw quite a few routes on the plains. The Scavenger Corridor isn't the only option.
And for this question, there is no need for the fat man to explain, Crewe on the side has already spoken: "The ruins of the bloody abbey, the robber's canyon, the tomido swamp, which of the so-called other routes, which is a better choice?" As a veteran of several years in Wildfire City, he was no stranger to the surrounding situation.
Shir Ang nodded and said no more. And just as everyone finished receiving the food and was about to leave, Yu Yi took out a few more silver coins and handed them to the fat man and said, "Bring a few buckets of meat." ”
Then, he turned to Orange Yiqi and said, "Qiqi, you go and give the meat to that woman." Had a good night's sleep in the afternoon, and hopefully it didn't go too hard at night. ”
The girl nodded hurriedly, picked up the bucket and walked towards the dragon.
"The centurion is still quite humane." Crewe smiled and walked up to his "employer".
Yu Yi didn't pick up the stubble, and followed the others to the open space next to him to eat dinner.
After a while, Orange Yiqi came back at a trot. "I've got that sister's hidden mission!" She said in a voice that was barely audible enough for a few players.
"How did you do that?" At the beginning, he asked in surprise at the "knife face reflection" that was most attentive to the hidden mission.
"It was when I gave the meat to that sister, I talked to her about her dragon, and I talked about my little lizard, and then it was triggered." The girl said seriously.
Knife Face Reflector was a little unconvinced, and repeated dumbfounded: "Chat with NPCs? "He's such a hardcore professional gamer, and he's been playing online games for so many years, and it's the first time he's heard such a statement.
"Xiaoguang, you see, I still don't believe it after telling you. Such a real online game should be treated with a real attitude. Stop playing, it's the heart of the D ball that developed this game, what else can't they do? Mo Fang patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said, obviously after being persuaded by Yu Yi, he also began to instill such a concept like the people around him.
The long-haired man nodded absentmindedly, turned his head and asked again, "What's the reward?" ”
Even Yu Yi, who was watching from the sidelines, could see that this guy didn't take the boss's words to heart. What's more, there are no task rewards in this game at all, and when they are completed, what they deserve will naturally be obtained.
This dinner takes much shorter time than lunch. At the urging of the convoy members, the dragon cart was back on the road before it was completely dark.
I don't know if it's an illusion, Yu Yi only feels that the night on the plain of this magic conch phase is much darker than the grassland, and the moonlight here is not so bright. Outside the window, there seemed to be no other point of light except for the night lights hanging on the carriage.
And what made him even more strange was that he had already slept for a long time in the afternoon. At this time, as soon as I got in the car, I still felt sleepy.
In a trance, he only felt that someone kept patting his cheek:
"Lance! Reims! Wake up! Trouble! ”
