Chapter 1372: Insect Tide
With everything in place, the team made their way through the checkpoints and fortresses in a very low-key manner, leaving the Holy Dragon City without the knowledge of a few generals and embarking on the road to the island nation of Ilan.
Along the way, I found that the two main transportation arteries leading from the Holy Dragon City to other places were densely packed with pedestrians.
Pedestrians are dressed as mercenaries, adventurers, officials, soldiers, merchants, nobles, commoners, etc., on foot, on horseback, in carriages, or on various types of giant beasts, among which there are even low-level monsters.
There are also a small number of transport vehicles and pedal tricycles interspersed in the middle.
Of course, there are also those who ride Luluto like Jia Zhengjin, or other flying mounts.
"It seems that consideration will be given to opening a few more roads to ease traffic. Jia Zhengjin pondered, "I didn't expect that there would be traffic jams in the other world, which is really surprising." ”
"Aren't they all here for you?" Tina said softly, "Of course, there are also many merchants who are interested in our various specialties of Holy Dragon City. Now the prosperity of our cities is no worse than that of the capitals of small and medium-sized countries! It may even be compared with the prosperity of the capitals of large countries, except that the urban area may not be enough......
"I didn't expect the title of God Slayer to attract so many people to me!" Jia Zhengjin shook his head and said, "This is too troublesome." ”
In fact, the biggest attraction is the title of savior. Tina said, "Now almost the whole continent, and even the whole world, regard you as a savior, after all, it was you who led the major races to carry the dark dragon and avoided the destruction of the world." For them, the most they do is respect and worship. But the Savior is where hope lies, and countless people are looking forward to your salvation!"
"What kind of savior, I'm just for myself!" Jia Zhengjin sighed, "These annoying guys don't know when they will disappear." ”
"Drag it out!" Tina whispered, "it's not your right time to come forward and reject all requests outright, but there's no need to be some real savior." As long as you keep hiding your whereabouts from the outside world, let everyone think that you are erratic and difficult to meet. Over time, when they hit more walls, they will understand that there is little hope of asking for help from you, and it will naturally slowly dissipate when the time comes. ”
"Well, it's mainly a matter of heat, right? It should be fine when the heat passes!" Jia Zhengjin nodded, "I hope it can pass as soon as possible, it's really troublesome." ”
As he spoke, the team quickly swept over the highway and headed towards Sea Dragon City as fast as they could.
They need to pass through Sea Dragon City, then walk straight to the port of Hollis, then take a boat to Reef City, cross the Machong Empire, the Duchy of Tyrros, and then take a boat to the island nation of Elam.
Ruluto is a good flying mount, but it is quite difficult to cross the vast oceans.
Flying all the way, the mighty team below seemed to be out of sight, moving at a very slow speed.
This crowded situation was not eased until near Sea Dragon City.
And when passing by Sea Dragon City, and then flying along the road for a while, finally there is no such exaggerated scene.
After walking silently for most of the day, I finally got away from the Holy Dragon City, passed through the Sea Dragon City, and came to the passage to the port of Hollis, which was already around 15 o'clock in the afternoon.
There was a relatively remote path through the forest, and apart from the occasional caravan passing by, even the nearby peasants were rarely seen.
Ruruto's mount seems to be about the same amount of stamina, and needs to take a break.
So Jia Zhengjin landed with the team and settled in a clearing in the woods by the roadside.
"I'm so tired~" came to the clearing, let Ruluto's mount rest on the grass, and Tina directly found a big tree and took advantage of the shade to take advantage of the shade.
Perrin, Christina, and Aypar also passed over and sat down to her left and right.
Jia Zhengjin turned around and looked: "I don't know if I can reach the port tonight." ”
"It shouldn't be easy, right?" said Tina, "probably for the night." ”
"It doesn't matter. Perrin said indifferently. After all, with Jia Zhengjin here, he can build a wooden house anytime and anywhere, and he doesn't have to worry about accommodation at all.
"The forest seems to be very large," said Aypar, "and it may not be possible to get out tonight." ”
"Let's go as much as you can!" Jia Zhengjin made a bonfire on the spot, "Let's eat something casually first to replenish our strength." ”
"I'll just eat some fruit!" said Tina, reaching out from the silk bag to take the food she had brought.
"Barbecue!" Perlin looked at Jia Zhengjin decisively.
"I'm going to have a barbecue too, and nectar!" Christina said hurriedly.
"No problem!"
Honey roast meat is cooked on the spot, while several bottles of nectar are taken out and handed to the wives, and the family sits by the fire to enjoy a moment of silence.
During this time, there were caravans passing by on the road, and although they were curious about their procession, they all passed by in a hurry and did not come to disturb them.
Enjoying the food and a moment of tranquility, the hard work of the previous non-stop journey seems to be swept away.
Having eaten about the same, everyone was going to lie down on the grass for a while.
There was a sudden "buzzing" noise in my ears, and it approached quickly.
The team immediately became vigilant and quickly investigated the source of the sound.
"Keane, look!" After a while, a black storm suddenly appeared in the sky, all of which were giant beetles about the size of a human, flying towards this direction at an alarming speed, and Tina couldn't help but shout in panic when she saw it.
The beetles resembled stag beetles in shape, with a pair of giant crows on their heads and a sturdy carapace on the outside.
"How could there be so many Dinabo beetles all of a sudden?" Aipar was a little puzzled, "and it looks murderous, and it's even more strange! Dinabo beetles are notoriously docile and rarely take the initiative to attack. ”
"It's clear that you're coming at me!" Jia Zhengjin said depressedly, "I killed the Beluga God before, and as a result, the favorability of any Zerg was negative. They probably found out about me, so they came to attack!"
"Then why is Ruruto okay?" asked Apar, confused.
"Ruluto is also a zerg, but they are different. Jia Zhengjin didn't know how to explain it, and he couldn't tell the system secrets, so he raised the ebony staff in his hand, "Don't say so much yet, hurry up and deal with this wave of insects! Keep a low profile and try to use low-level magic skills." ”
"Got it!!" the wives braced themselves for battle.
Apar also raised his magic wand, but he didn't intend to use magic, but instead slashed it up and aimed it in the air.
"Buzz~" The insect tide soon surged and frantically pounced on Jia Zhengjin. Naturally, he was also implicated.
"Sweep!" Perrin, as a warrior, decisively rushed to the front to protect her husband, and worked hard to slash in the face of the insect tide.
"Fireball!" Tina unleashed a fireball attack from behind.
"Holy Light Bullet!!" Jia Zhengjin and Christina stood together as they used the Holy Light Bullet to shoot quickly to stop the insect tide from approaching.
Aypar really uses a magic wand as a melee weapon, and he can basically kill it instantly with a single stick.
