Chapter 498: Unknown Forces
I suddenly showed a happy look: "Okay, you say! ”
"You should have heard that the entire world of Bunores is occupied by three forces: caravans, mercenaries from the old Imperial Division, and defense forces of the Research Institute, right? However, our occupation is not completely without dead ends. In fact, in all four areas, there is a group of primitive inhabitants in addition to our tripartite or distributed strongholds. For example, in the Man-Devouring Swamp, in addition to us, there is also an indigenous belief in the primitive Brown Religion. They believe in a deity called 'Pula'. The idol of 'Pula' is very strange, it can be seen from the front and back, left and right, up and down, you can see different states, there are old people, young people, children, wild beasts and birds, each angle is a different image, but no matter which angle, you can see that the idol is smiling at you. That smile becomes terrifying when you look at it for a long time. I went there once in my early years because of trade, and I only looked at the idol once, and I didn't dare to look at it again. It's scary to think about it now. It's hard for me to imagine how a primitive aboriginal like them could make a statue of a god comparable to a work of art. I suspect that there may be some forces behind this that we don't know about. Collier's tone couldn't help but be a little heavy when he said this.
Zhao Qiqi tilted his head and stared at the back of Kelier's head: "You mean, you suspect that the appearance of the zombie virus this time has anything to do with the power that controls the primitive natives?" ”
Collier's body shook visibly, his eyes still fixed on the situation ahead, but the hand holding the joystick trembled slightly.
He hesitated for a long time before he said, "You...... Do you know that? ”
Zhao Qiqi pouted and said lightly: "Through the analysis of what you just said!" Don't talk about this, you haven't told us about the original inhabitants of the remaining three areas! Go ahead! ”
When I saw Kelier's appearance, I hurriedly played a round: "Yes, yes, Qiqi is a blind guess, you should continue to tell us about the situation in other areas!" After all, we went this time, but we took a big risk, if we know more about everything, let alone successfully collect all the fragments, even if we can survive ourselves, we don't know. ”
Collier tilted his head back slightly, but he didn't look at us, and he sighed.
"Alright! Then I'll move on. The aborigines of the Devouring Swamp often perform strange rituals, and it is rumored that they also have the custom of sacrificing the living. While we do trade with them, our exchanges are limited. What's more, occasionally some of our tripartite forces will disappear in the Devouring Swamp, not because they will die in the swamp...... Some people say that maybe the natives took advantage of our defenselessness to secretly sacrifice some of us alive! They seem to be trying something all the time. In addition, the environment of the man-eating swamp is quite dangerous, and there are some very scary creatures. In short, if you go there at that time, you must be careful. If you can, try not to have any intersections with the original famous, and it would be nice to get around their settlements. ”
When we all heard this, we couldn't help but be shocked.
What kind of world is this place?
It feels like it's full of danger and unknown.
"What about the permafrost?" Wang Yi asked suddenly.
"Permafrost Snow...... In addition to the extremely bad weather, there are also white bears, yaks and other animals, but I don't know why, they didn't actively attack humans before. At some point in the last year, they became brutal. You also know how aggressive the bear is, not to mention that now that the virus is spreading simultaneously throughout the world of Noblus, there is no evidence that this virus does not infect animals. In short, be careful! At this point, Collier paused, and then continued: "Also, there is another place on the snowfield that I am a little concerned about......"
"Where is it? Speak up and listen! Zhang Qiang immediately asked with interest.
Collier nodded: "Actually, when our caravan went to the snow field to search for supplies, we accidentally went to a valley in the east. Walking up a trail in the valley, we stumbled upon a place that resembled the entrance to an underground castle as we went around the back part of the snow-capped mountain. It was then that some of the aborigines of the snow field suddenly appeared. Each of them watched our every move with cold eyes, as if they would attack us if we dared to enter. So I suspect that there may be some secret hidden there. However, what made me even more puzzled was that just as we were about to return the way we came, I accidentally saw the signs of the scientific research institute and the mercenaries of the old imperial department on the stone pillar at the entrance of the castle. ”
"The logo of the research institute and the mercenary?" When I heard this, I was a little surprised: "It seems that the whole thing is more complicated than we imagined. ”
As I said this, I was silently thinking in my heart.
Is there some kind of inevitable connection between these two forces?
"What about the Desert of Resentment? What kind of primitive inhabitants lived there? When Situ Cao heard this, he couldn't help but ask.
"Because of the great temperature difference between day and night in the desert, the days are very hot, and the nights are extremely cold. One of the most important factors in determining the climate there is the wind. That's why the people who live there regard the wind as their god. However, it is precisely because of this environment that they generally live in caves, either natural or artificially excavated. In addition, in the desert, there are scattered ruins of ancient temples and temples, although most of them are now occupied by mercenary groups from the old part of the empire. There is nothing more dangerous in the Desert of Resentment than sandstorms. Hey, it's too dangerous, so we caravans don't go there very often, and only occasionally when we gather supplies, we go to that place. Collier said, shaking his head again.
"I'm going, all of these places are so dangerous? And what about the Forest of No Return that we are going to now? What is the environment of the non-return forest? Is it dangerous? When Zhang Qiang heard this, he wanted to cry without tears.
Collier pondered for two seconds before he said, "Actually, compared to the other three places, the environment of the Forest of No Return is much better, and there are no human aborigines there. ”
"Aborigines without humanity? Then you just ......" I looked at him with some confusion.
Kehlier smiled bitterly, "I mean, there are no human aborigines, not that there are no inhabitants. The aborigines of the Forest of No Return are actually some rather strange plants. ”
