Chapter 264: Kariam
Two waves of people met and looked at each other. From the confusion and curiosity in the eyes of the wildlings, it was clear that they had never seen a human like Stormtroo. They are always wary of these creatures that resemble their appearance and form. And the Storm Squad can't trust these primitive-looking wildlings, who knows if they will have some murderous customs towards outsiders.
In this way, a strange situation was formed in which six wild men walked in front, and the group of Storm Squad followed behind a few meters apart, and both sides clenched their weapons.
After walking like this for more than twenty minutes, Luo Han found one thing - he had not been attacked again along the way. Luo Han didn't know if it was the savages who had managed to find a safe passage, or if the hunters in the jungle were afraid of these savages. If it was the latter, Luo Han would have to seriously consider a meeting with the Savage Tribe.
Luo Han slowed down a few steps, stood shoulder to shoulder with the mad dragon, and whispered: "I will see the wild Ren Da troops later, you take everyone to lag behind a little, and when you see that the situation is not right, retreat immediately." I always felt that these wild people were very dangerous. ”
The mad dragon nodded: "I feel the same way, these wild people seem to have a lot of attributes, each of them has reached the level of at least a captain in the promotion trial, and it is very dangerous to rush into their large army without knowing them." You have to pay attention to it yourself. ”
"Wow......" The axe savage turned his head and shouted a few words, then took the lead and sped up. The Storm Squad sped up to follow, and soon came to an artificially carved clearing. In the middle of the clearing sits a dozen log houses, fenced with wooden stakes to form a primitive village. Savages with distinctly feminine characteristics come and go in the village with small children, some kneading leather, some slaughtering prey, and some handling wild fruits, which looks quite peaceful.
The axe savage shouted loudly outside the village with an axe, and after a while the gate on the wooden fence opened, and a child no more than one meter three tall stood at the door, chattering a big call, and the axe savage also replied a lot of words. Then a group of savages entered the village, and a large crowd of women and children gathered around and chattered.
Luo Han and his party stood outside the door, not knowing whether to go in or not. At this moment, out of the largest wooden house in the village, a bearded man with a large waist and a round waist came out, followed by an old man with a sturdy physique but gray hair. The bearded man chattered and exchanged ideas with the axe savage at the door for a while, and then the old man walked to the door, picked up a wooden stick, and drew a line of words on the ground.
Luo Han was surprised to find that the old man had written a line of Chinese characters.
"What are you doing here?"
Luo Hanxi said: "We are here to find ......"
The old man waved his hand to interrupt Luo Han's words, wiped off the handwriting on the ground, and wrote again: "We can't understand your language, we only know words." ”
Luo Han somewhat understood that this was like an archaeologist who could read the oracle bone inscriptions, but had no way of knowing how people at that time read these words. So Luo Han picked up a dead branch and wrote on the ground, "We have come to look for a crown and want to inquire about it. ”
The old man looked at the words, turned back and said something to the bearded man, who came over and looked at the words written by Luo Han, and said a few words to the old man. The old man nodded and wrote, "Are you looking for the Crown of Tigers?" ”
Luo Han wrote: "Yes. Do you know where the Crown of Tegurs is? ”
The old man wrote: "It is rumored that King Tiger of the Tiger Department died in the lava lake, and the Crown of Tiger was lost. For thousands of years, the Tiger Department sent countless warriors to the lava lake to find it, but none of them succeeded, and most of them died in the lava lake. If you're not afraid of death, try your luck. ”
Luo Han wrote: "Where is the lava lake? ”
The old man wrote: "If you can come up with something useful to us, I can be your guide." ”
Luo Han looked around, his eyes lit up, he took out a few pieces of C-level equipment and asked, "Is this okay?" ”
"It's good quality metal gear, very good, but it's not enough."
Luo Han thought about it, the team members winked, and everyone took out a piece of equipment. Luo Han wrote: "This is all that can be taken out without affecting our combat effectiveness. ”
The old man nodded in satisfaction and wrote, "Please let me say goodbye to my companion." Then the old man and the bearded man muttered quietly.
The corners of Luo Han's mouth rose slightly, obviously the beard was the one who really called the shots here. The old man simply got the permission of the bearded man to negotiate, and he can decide how much benefit to receive, which can only mean that the benefits have reached the bottom line of the beard, and all he wants is the lion's mouth. Although these things were of little use to the Storm Squad, Luo Han didn't want to be treated as Kai Zizai, so he deliberately said such a thing. The phrase that does not affect combat effectiveness is to tell the other party that if necessary, it is okay to take out some more, but that must be when necessary. And if this really happens, Luo Han can be sure that the old man has bad intentions.
After a short time, the old man finished talking to the beard, and then returned to the hut, took out a spear with an iron rod and an iron head, took a small animal skin and a clay pot, went to the door, and wrote with a spear: "Warriors, you can go." ”
Luo Han wrote: "Can you tell us your name? ”
The old man opened his mouth and said, "Kariam." ”
Apparently "Kariam" is the name of the old man.
Kariam led the way with a spear, and the Stormtroop followed. Luo Han walked side by side with the dragon, whispering something.
The pole used in Kariam's spear is a strange piece of wood that combines hardness and toughness, making it the best way to find its way through the jungle. I don't know how Kariam judged the route, but there are no beasts in the places he passes. If it weren't for the Storm Squad before, I'm afraid they would have thought it was just an ordinary jungle.
However, Kariam's route is not a straight line, and there are often detours in between, so I think it should have avoided those fierce beasts. I don't know how far the so-called lava lake is, so I just walked all the way until it got dark.
Karian stopped suddenly, pulled out a clearing, and wrote with his spear: "The beasts of the night are fierce and not good for haste. Rest in place and stay safe. ”
After writing this, Kariam didn't care that Luo Han was about to write and ask questions, and jumped directly onto a big tree, climbed to the canopy of the tree a few times, and began to get busy.
Luo Han wanted to talk to Kaliam more and listen to some news, but when he saw the old man doing this, he could only give up and beckon his teammates to set up a tent.
Kalianmu was weaving a hammock with branches on the tree, and when he saw a group of people below setting up a tent, there was a hint of mockery in his eyes, but unfortunately Luo Han and the others didn't pay attention.
The Storm Team has set up a large tent large enough to hold everyone, with a canvas at the bottom to keep the ground out of the ground to prevent small insects from entering. Spread the futon and you can rest well.
The tent was set up, and Luo Han was about to call Kariam down, but when he saw that Kariam was already sleeping peacefully in a hammock made of branches and rattans, he could only give up this idea.
Although the tent was set up, dinner was not settled. The beasts in this jungle are all gray blood, although they are non-poisonous and non-corrosive, the trialists have little appetite, and they don't know if they can eat it. Kariam, the only one who knew this, was already asleep, and everyone had to take food out of their watches to replenish their strength first.
On Earth, fire is a natural threat to wild beasts, and lighting a campfire at camping can ward off nocturnal beasts. But here there are many evil beasts, and these fierce hunters are not necessarily afraid of a campfire, but may be attracted by it. So a group of people put out the campfire after dinner and turned into sleeping bags in the dark.
Today's vigil is Nightmare and Flowing Year, the two of them sit on the edge of the tent, looking through the transparent tarpaulin on the tent at the dark jungle outside. The Trialist's powerful five senses allow them to see in the dark and hear subtle sounds. Nightmares are particularly sensitive as elders with special perceptions, and with the elderly with outstanding physical abilities, it can be said that they are the best partners for vigil.
The jungle in the dark of night was filled with rustling sounds, the footsteps of insects crawling over the leaves. There are also the occasional cries from afar, and the screams of prey after the predator has succeeded, which are nocturnal animals reveling. The wind blew through the canopy, and the pale moonlight occasionally shone through the foliage like frost.
Nightmare's brows suddenly furrowed, and he whispered, "Liunian, did you hear that?" ”
Liu Nian said vigilantly: "What? ”
Nightmare closed her eyes, trying to make out one of the myriad voices with her ears.
It was a clattering sound like a bean squeezing and rubbing, and it was a little dull, approaching this way from a distance.
"Flowing years, this way!" Nightmare pushes Flowing Years aside as he shoves a whistle into his mouth, and the sharp whistle sounds, waking the rest of his sleep into his sleep.
A black shadow broke through the tent and hit Liunian's body, and landed in the corner of the tent through Liunian, leaving a bloody scar on Liunian's body. However, after being blocked by Liunian's body, the speed of the black shadow slowed down a lot, allowing Nightmare to see the true face of this thing.
This is a one-meter-long gray centipede, and compared to a normal centipede, in addition to its size, a pair of sharp fangs growing out of its mouth are particularly striking. And this thing just spun and rushed in, a pair of fangs drilled through the flowing years like a drill, thanks to the strong defense brought by the super strong physique of 175 in the flowing years, so that the centipede's attack was frustrated, otherwise with the attack just now, it hit other people who were still asleep, I am afraid that it would be a huge blood hole.
Luo Han didn't have time to take out his weapon, and a vacuum wave was struck, which swept the centipede into the whirlwind and cut, but unexpectedly, the centipede's body swung and spun in the air, like an arrow off the string to get rid of the whirlwind and shoot towards the nearest Linghu Yulan. Ling Hu Yulan reacted quickly, and the scabbard of the streamer sword that never left his body flicked up, accurately hitting the centipede in the middle, picking up the centipede, and flying out over his head.
The centipede shot through the tent, fell into the bushes, and disappeared for a while.
A group of Storm Squad members looked at the bushes vigilantly, but Nightmare suddenly shouted, "Watch your back!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the centipede spun and shot out of the bushes behind the crowd.
"Smack." As soon as the centipede rushed out, it was pressed to the ground by an invisible force field, and under the action of inertia, it rubbed against the ground and rushed out for several meters, like the head of a drill bit piercing into the dirt, leaving only half of its body outside. This is Meng Fei suddenly starting a strong electric field. This ability uses electromagnetic induction, and can only work on objects and metals with biomagnetic fields, and the skill level is low, only C-level, but because the higher the voltage, the stronger the force, the effect will increase with the increase of Wuji's strength, and it will not be outdated.
Linghu Yulan rushed forward, the streamer sword came out, and before the centipede had time to rotate, more than a dozen swords were slashed down, and the centipede was cut in two from the middle.
At this time, Kariam slipped down from the tree, dragged out the body of the centipede buried in the dirt with his hands and feet, cut off the two fangs of the centipede with the tip of the spear hair, and then made a chaotic gesture to Luo Han and the others, and then put the two fangs into the animal skin package and climbed up the canopy again.
Meng Fei was dissatisfied: "Boss, just let this old man take away the loot?" He didn't have any strength. ”
Luo Han waved his hand: "It's okay, we don't know what the use of this thing is when we take it, how can Kariam also our guide, if he is useful, give it to him." ”
As he spoke, he gave Meng Fei a look and motioned him not to say anything more.
Being messed up by centipedes, the tent was already in tatters, and everyone could only take out some newspapers and other things, stick them on the holes, and then they didn't get into the sleeping bag, and just lay down on the ground to sleep.
In the second half of the night, two more uninvited guests arrived, but they were not high-attack, high-sensitivity and low-defense assassins like centipedes, and fled in a hurry after being beaten a few times.
As soon as it was dawn the next day, Kariam slid down the trunk of the tree and wrote the word "go" on the ground, and Nightmare and Wandering woke up the others and followed Kariam on his way.
In the past, although Kariam would take a detour, it was generally in a fixed direction. But this time, Kariam seemed to be heading in the other direction. Luo Han didn't know what Kariam was going to do, so he could only follow cautiously.
After walking for half an hour, Kariam suddenly threw his spear out and plunged into a thicket. There was a shaking in the bushes, and Kariam walked straight over, burrowing into the bushes and dragging out a two-meter-long python. Surprisingly, red blood flowed from the wound of the python pierced by the spear, which was normal in other places but was the first time everyone had seen it in this jungle.
Karian pulled the spear off, put the head of the spear to his mouth, licked the blood from it, and wrote with the spear: "Exchange this snake for those two teeth." ”
Luo Han instructed Meng Fei and Zhao Qian to deal with the python, and wrote with his long sword, "Can you tell me why there are edible creatures here?" ”
Kariam hesitated for a moment and wrote, "The young animals are all edible, but they are hard to find. ”
Luo Han somewhat understood, it seemed that the evil beasts here were not born like this, and only when they became adults would they transform into powerful creatures with gray blood. Baidu: Read the latest chapter of "The Final Trial of Death: Jiezhong Literature" for free for the first time.
