Chapter 155: The Western Boundary of the Great Western Wasteland (Medium)
While Chen Kai and the others were enjoying lunch, Barbat was running happily on the wasteland, and he felt that the strength in his body was increasing rapidly. After obtaining the Realm World Fragment of the 'Fallen' Demigod, he obtained the Legendary Realm Seed like Enge, but he was much stronger than Enge, and the two huge city destroyers brought him a lot of supplies, which were enough to make him a legendary powerhouse in a short period of time.
Sitting in the exquisite carriage, Barbat did not hug those noble girls who were favored on weekdays, but worked hard to improve his strength, watering and cultivating his own domain seeds with various precious potions. When this realm seed began to grow slowly, it was time for Balbat to meet the test of promotion to Legend.
It's just that he knows very well that even if he waters every day and night, he may not be able to complete the promotion in a short time, if he takes the risk of making a legendary promotion when the domain seed has not yet grown, then the success rate will be relatively high, but if he is not careful, he may destroy the field seed, and there is no hope for promotion in the future. So Barbat was very careful and wanted to be able to lay a solid foundation for himself. Although he really hoped to be promoted to a legendary powerhouse as much as possible, he knew better that if the foundation was not laid, no matter how high the success rate of his promotion was, he would only become an ordinary legendary powerhouse who was oblivious.
Barbat didn't want to be a legend destined to be a hopeless demigod, because he was too demanding on power, and how could he have turned to the devil if it weren't for it. The lavishly decorated carriage swayed across the wasteland, and Barbat inside the carriage worked hard to increase the vitality of the field seeds.
When the rickety carriage stopped again, Barbat opened the door. There is no doubt that they have reached the edge of the moorland swamp. Just looking at the swamp in front of him, Barbat's brow began to wrinkle.
"Did you find your way?" Barbat asked a few players, knowing full well that asking the Dark Knight or Yabora like the Wood Man would never get any answers. So a few players who are relied on by him have naturally become think tanks. Of course, this think tank is not easy to be, because at any time it may be replaced by Barbat due to bad work and then hung on a branch as an arrow target. It's a dangerous position, but it's much easier to get a Balbat's reward, so many players want to pursue this position even though they know that it will be a serious thing to do if they are used as a target for arrows and hang on a branch.
"Report! Report to your lord! There is a way! There is a way! After a bit of pushing, one player grabbed the opportunity to answer, holding one player's mouth with his left hand, pressing one player's head with his right hand, and stepping on a player who had been squeezed under his feet. Seeing this, Barbat couldn't help but frown helplessly, these greedy travelers were simply scum who dared to do anything for money in his eyes. But that's why he doesn't have to worry about players rallying against him. After all, tens of thousands of players before were able to run away even a dozen Sacred Domain powerhouses. Of course, that was in the case of Barbat's use of special skills, and if it was a normal situation, it would be quite good for the player to be able to stand up straight and appear in front of each other in the face of a dozen Sanctuary powerhouses.
"Say!" Barbat was in no mood to bother with the previous fight between several players, what he needed was a quick way to get through the entire swamp. As long as the player can find the way, then he will be rewarded. If the place he says is not as simple as the road, there is a tree on the edge of the swamp where he can practice his archery skills.
"My lord! The map is here!! Hearing Balbat's voice, the player quickly pulled out a map from his backpack, and there was no doubt that he had made a lot of preparations to complete this mission, and this preparation gave him a good chance of getting a big reward. Of course, if you are unlucky, the result will be tragic. Putting in the money will be wasted. He also had to enjoy the treatment of being hung on a branch as an arrow target.
"You go and find your way!" Balbat didn't take the map, but just let the player take the map and explore the road, if the map was wrong, then the player would be swallowed up by the swamp and wouldn't even have a chance to be a target.
"What? Comments? Barbat's eyes swept over, and the player's face turned into a bitter gourd after hesitating for less than a second, and he could only keep nodding his head, and then slowly stepped into the swampy lake with the two thief players in the resentful laughter of several other players. Although the path near the edge of the swamp has already been explored by the player's men, the problem is that it was a day or two ago. The result of the soil in the swamp being soaked in water for a day is that the originally dry and hard soil will become thin mud, and the thin mud that would have only swallowed the surface of the feet can directly swallow the calves.
The roads in the entire wasteland swamp have been flooded for days, so no matter how accurate the map is taken. When he stepped into the swampy lake, the water of the lake, which had not reached his calf at most, and the swamp mud directly swallowed his thighs. Seeing this, the player was momentarily dumbfounded, although he felt the mud under his feet, and it was impossible to swallow him whole. But in this state he could not move at all, let alone the carriage. Barbat's ornately decorated carriage weighed more than a normal carriage, and the only consequence of driving on such a road was to sink into the mud in an instant.
"Climb up the tree yourself!" Balbat looked coldly at the player trapped in the mud and dropped a word that was enough to break him. After hearing Barbat's words, the player almost burst into tears. Because Barbat's target is not good, he will not shoot you directly with a bow and arrow, but will hit you with a bow and arrow and make you a complete eunuch. For a male player, this is definitely a worse punishment than killing him. However, although the player did not want to become a eunuch, it would have been more wonderful if he did not climb the tree, and after much confusion he cried and climbed a large tree on the edge of the swamp and hung himself on it with a rope.
"Ah!!h The still shaking player let out a terrible scream, which was so heartbroken and desolate. Let the thousands of players watching around subconsciously clamp their legs. Looking at the feathered arrow that was still trembling in the player's crotch, everyone felt a chill.
"Does anyone else know the way?" Barbat's icy eyes swept over the players, and the hapless guy hanging from the branch was still screaming. The screams were constantly pounding into the minds of these players, and they knew that it was not easy to get Barbat's bounty.
"Doesn't seem to know about it? Then don't you think of a way for me, if you can't think of it, you will hang yourself from a tree! Balbat dropped the floppy bow in his hand, he would never use his black bow for shooting at a target, and just picked up a whiteboard bow from the side. With Barbat's abilities, even the most rubbish tabula rasa can shoot through the player's blue steel shorts, and then take the two poor balls with a sharp arrow.
So in the face of Barbat's egg-shooting threat, these players' brains began to command their little brothers to find a way. Also contact other players who are still roaming the wasteland. Balbat's tens of thousands of dark forces of players won't be wiped out by a single magma meteor, and although some of the things that exploded after the death of these players added a treasure spot to the wasteland, there were still a lot of good things on these players. At the same time, they knew better how rich Barbat was carrying hundreds of space rings and space bags. So even though they knew that they might turn into cannon fodder with Barbat, they still gritted their teeth and ran after being resurrected under the call of the gold coin.
It's just that the Great Western Wilderness is not the backyard of these players, and when Balbat arrived at the edge of the swamp, there were less than 5,000 players who resurrected and ran under his tent to continue to serve, and if you add the low-level players of the previous logistics troops, the original tens of thousands of player troops now have less than 6,000 people, and even less than one-sixth of the size. Although there are still some players on the way to come. But there is no doubt that it will take at least a day for them to arrive.
For players who stay in the camp and act as Barbat's brainstorm. The day was definitely tough, and even those players who arrived at them didn't necessarily benefit from it, as they didn't have much to do to cross the vast wasteland swamps.
While Barbat was depressed and thinking about how to lead a huge army through the wasteland swamp, Chen Kai and the others were driving quickly on the wasteland, and they were getting closer and closer to the western border of the wasteland. But there is no doubt that it is becoming more and more dangerous, because the place they are now in is the very center of the entire Great Western Wilderness, and a little further west is the western part of the Western Great Wilderness.
If it weren't for the fact that Ilian, the elven archmage, had gradually recovered, plus a mage Neluosard, who was recovering, the two elven spellcasters with strong spell-casting abilities had increased Chen Kai's safety factor by a little. At the same time, Enge, the wounded paladin, was unable to fight, although he was severely injured. But it can bless Chen Kai and them with all kinds of blessings of the Temple of Life. Even if most of the blessings overlapped with Chen Yi and Wang Feifei's blessings, the blessings released by a paladin completely exploded the magic of the two players. Even Chen Yi's aura effect was overshadowed by these blessings.
However, what made Chen Kai and them happy was not the blessing released by Enge, but the aura advantage of a holy domain-level paladin. There is no doubt that for those ordinary monsters in the wasteland, their noses are quite sensitive, and they can definitely smell the strong aura that Enge exudes all the time. When it came to food and life, these wasteland creatures hesitated and chose the latter. Of course, there are also wasteland creatures who don't believe in evil, after all, these are the real center of the entire Western Wasteland, and it can't be said that Sanctuary-level monsters are crawling all over the ground here, but the probability of lord-level creatures appearing is definitely a lot higher than in other places.
Because this trade route has been interrupted for a long time, the original road has basically been covered with weeds and plants, so the speed of Chen Kai's movement in this area and the movement speed of the carriage are greatly limited. The rickety carriage was as jolting as a tractor, even for a few elven mages. It's not necessarily much more comfortable to sit in than in other carriages, and another side effect of the bumpy road is that the wheels and axles break faster than expected.
"I said this is the third wheel that broke today, right?" Fei Yun looked at the wheel fragments that were broken into several pieces in front of him and said to Chen Kai, although they had prepared a lot of spare wheels, but at this rate of damage, no amount of spare wheels would be enough to consume.
"Nope! It should be said that it is the fourth. The third one is there! Chen Kai helplessly pointed to the carriage behind Fei Yun, as he said, the wheels on this carriage were also damaged, but it was not so strict. Relative to the whole broken wheel. There is still room for repair of this wheel, and it is only necessary to repair the broken spokes and crooked wheels.
"Huh! If this continues, there will not be enough spare wheels! Fei Yun looked at Armand who was mending the wheel and sighed, at this rate, maybe it would not take two days for all the wheels of the carriage they had prepared to be scrapped.
"Alright! I'll go cut down a tree and come back, and you can make a few spare wheels! Chen Kai sighed, this is the only way that is not a way, if it is really damaged at this speed, then as Fei Yun said, it will not take two days for the spare wheels of the carriage to be damaged, and then they can only ride out of the wasteland. Although the speed of riding a horse is undoubtedly much faster, there is no way to carry a lot of supplies. Without supplies, Chen Kai's ability to survive in the wasteland will be greatly reduced.
"Is there wood around this head? And that cheetah is still hiding around! Fei Yun's words made Chen Kai, who had just raised the giant sword, fall into a depressed state again, because although there were many scattered trees in this wasteland, there was almost no wood that could be used to make zuò wheels. If Chen Kai wants to find a good tree, then he must ride Lal and run far away to find it. And that's a pretty dangerous thing. Because not long ago, they had just encountered a lord-level wasteland cheetah, and that cheetah was scared away by the alliance of Illian and Enge, and they didn't know if it would linger around and follow them. According to Chen Kai's expression when they saw the cheetah leave, if Chen Kai left the range of the convoy for more than five hundred meters, it would definitely appear and attack Chen Kai.
Lord-level monsters are quite vindictive. Especially for those who have intimidated it, it is even more vindictive. Chen Kai estimated that the wasteland cheetah would follow them for at least a day or two. That is, they must not leave the protection range of the convoy at will for a day or two. If it weren't for Fei Yun's reminder, Chen Kai would have almost forgotten that there was still a wasteland god squatting around him, and the cheetah with a body length of more than five meters was definitely terrifying. Not to mention the ability to have a strong ambush and sneak attack, the sharp claws can instantly cut through a one-meter-thick tree pole, which can definitely make Chen Kai seriously injured in an instant. After all, it is very difficult to find a deliberately hidden wasteland cheetah in the wild, and it is even more difficult when this cheetah is still a lord-level monster.
"Fourth! There's a daunting task for you, collect the scrap and fix the wheels that can be repaired, even if the wheels become square. You just have to be able to move! In the end, Chen Kai sighed helplessly, and then continued to shrink in a daze. Fei Yun's face became quite depressed after hearing Chen Kai's words. Because what Chen Kai said is a technical job, and he can't guarantee that he can complete it. Fortunately, Armand and the others will help him, but he doesn't know how many bullets he owes to pay off the processing fee.
"Boss! Can I say no? Fei Yun's face was a little bitter, but it was a pity that Chen Kai had already rushed towards Su Wan with a plate at this time. Although Su Wan had a beautiful minotaur girl next to her who made Chen Kai a little numb, Chen Kai decided to sacrifice her hue without hesitation for the sake of her belly. Of course, although Alyssa, who has obviously been educated by Su Wan for a long time, still has a love for Chen Kai, but now she has become quite reserved, at least she will not do the thing that appeared on Chen Kai's bed in a sexy tulle in the past. So although the minotaur girl still looked at him affectionately when Chen Kai walked over, her gaze was already quite soft.
"I really don't know where this wood is!" There is no doubt that the Minotaur girl around her who has been educated by herself for a long time still unswervingly chooses to hang herself on Chen Kai's tree, but Su Wan has no way to do it. Seeing Chen Kai hand over the plate, Su Wan glared at him viciously, but her target lethality was a bit low, on the contrary, her own face turned red when she was seen by Chen Kai, and finally stuffed the plate full of broth back into Chen Kai's hand under Alyssa's envious gaze.
While Chen Kai and the others enjoyed the delicious food, Barbat sat on his golden chair and watched depressedly as the players transformed their carriages. Under the threat of egg-shooting, the players' IQ was instantly increased by at least ten percentage points, and they finally figured out a way to get through the wasteland swamp before Barbat's patience ran out. As a result of this method, the crocodiles in the wasteland swamp were killed, as they were all invaded by the evil forces of Yabora and turned into evil creatures. Hundreds of transformed crocodiles have been transformed into coolies, pulling modified wagons and gliding slowly through the swamps, and rafts made of wooden planks are also pulled into the moorland swamps.
