Volume 1 The Endless Wilderness Section 96 Knights
A few days later, they found some car parts. The parts were caught between the crevices of the roots of the tree, covered in moss, and could not be found without looking closely.
It seems that the car valley shown on the map is nearby.
The two of them continued on their way, and in the afternoon they parted from a bush, and the front suddenly opened up. Mountains of scrap cars appeared before their eyes, the frames were crooked and rusty, the wheels and various parts were everywhere, and the hoods were covered with moss and vines.
Compared to today's vehicles, these cars tend to have a more streamlined appearance, like a shuttle with two narrow ends and a wide middle. From this, it follows that these cars are not made in the native world, but are dumped from space debris.
The universe is vast and endless, with countless planes, countless civilizations, and countless human worlds.
The fragments of the world hidden here are only the plane of human industrial civilization that is relatively similar to the local world civilization system.
Chen Xing followed behind Aliya, looking through the scrap cars under his feet as he walked, and finally raised doubts: "With such obvious characteristics of world fragments, the distance is not too far, why hasn't anyone come to explore?" ”
Thanks to Ariya's presence, the extremely dangerous Black Death Forest Journey turns into a summer camp for the Crusaders, and any powerful mutated creature looks like a kitten or a puppy in front of her. One of them either ran away or lay on the ground and couldn't get up.
However, Chen Xing III is a human being, and he knows the truth of being careful to sail a ship for ten thousand years, and he cannot relax his vigilance at any time, and accidents may occur at any time when he is in the wild.
"It's not strange~" Alia kicked a wheel away and said disappreciatively, "For a large organization, a civilization with similar technology is not worth exploring. Instead of wasting time here, explore other places. And for small organizations, it's too tough. ”
Chen Xing didn't answer, and he acquiesced to Aliya's statement.
Next, the two walked through the rubble of the car for more than half an hour and found nothing worthy of attention.
There are too many scrap cars here, densely packed and stacked on top of each other, like undulating mountains.
"It seems like a good idea to open a scrap metal recycling plant here." Looking at the ruins of the car that stretched for several kilometers, Chen Xing suddenly had a whimsical idea and sighed.
"Unless you can afford to hire me as a guard." Alia poured cold water on her.
"That's right......" Chen Xing didn't refute this time, but just sighed, "If I can afford to hire you as a guard, why do you still open a factory?" ”
"If you don't open a factory, what do you want to do?" Alia asked.
"The conquest of the world, of course." Chen Xing grinned. If you can afford to hire a king-level powerhouse as a guard, you are either rich enough to rival the country, or you are strong enough. Goals and ideals should naturally be matched with them.
"Hehe~" Alia laughed wildly, obviously very satisfied with his answer. But in a blink of an eye, her face turned cold again, "Am I strong?" How do you know that if you can afford to be my guard, you can conquer the world? ”
In those red jade eyes, there was a strange light, and he could see the cold air swishing behind Chen Xing.
Still thinking about how to answer, she took another step closer, and there was an indescribable meaning in her tone, "You seem to know a lot, more than I thought. ”
"I'll just talk about it casually......" Chen Xing looked a little surprised, "I didn't expect you to take it seriously." ”
"Ah......h Then he twisted his waist and turned his head back, ignoring Chen Xing no longer.
"Let's go over there." Chen Xing pointed to the ruins of the tallest car in front of him and proposed. There is a wide view over there, and you can see your surroundings clearly.
"Oh~" Aliya replied lukewarmly, obviously having an opinion on what Chen Xing had just said. However, she was quite restrained and did not lose her temper immediately.
As soon as they climbed halfway up the mountain, the two noticed something unusual. Behind the ruins of the tallest car, a kilometer away, there was a large clearing.
The middle of the clearing was hollowed out, like a huge crypt. And above the crypt, dozens of locomotives are parked and a tent is set up. A number of heavily armed soldiers in light gray uniforms patrol the perimeter. From this distance, it looks like little black dots moving.
The moment they saw the camp, the two quickly lay down and observed carefully.
Aliya took out the binoculars and was about to look over, but was stopped by Chen Xing, "Be careful of the reflection, it will reveal our location." ”
"So what do you say?" Alia asked, pouting.
"Wait for the evening, backlight." Chen Xing said in a low voice.
"Hmph~" Alia took the opportunity to retaliate, "Coward~"
Chen Xing ignored her, found a hidden place, and sat down.
"I'm hungry, get me something to eat." Alia crawled over and demanded.
"The smoke will be discovered." Chen Xing said seriously, this reason for being lazy is very reasonable.
"I don't care, you have to find a way." Alia said willfully.
"How about a piece of dark chocolate?" Chen Xing asked.
"Don't eat, bitter." Alia turned her head and refused. The dark chocolate was obtained from the city defenders, and in order to avoid the soldiers from eating it as a snack, the sugar content was kept to a minimum, and it tasted very bad.
"Where's the canned meat?" Chen Xing asked again.
"Don't eat it, it's too greasy, I want to lose weight." Alia said cross-legged. Recently, she has eaten wild meat every day, and she has gained several pounds, and her clothes are almost unbearable.
Chen Xing rummaged around, and finally found a lollipop in the side pocket of his backpack, which seemed to be prepared for Suna, and threw it in casually when he set off.
"It's for kids." Alia frowned, seemingly dissatisfied, but finally tore open the wrapper and ate it deliciously.
After sending the demon girl away, Chen Xing leaned against the back of a car, closing his eyes and recuperating.
A few hours later, the sun was setting. The sun is behind their side, so there is no need to worry about the reflection of the lenses exposing them.
In the telescope, all locomotives and soldiers have a silver-gray symbol on their bodies.
The emblem consisted of two crossed swords, the one on the right with a chain wrapped around the hilt, and the one on the left with a skull strung through the body.
Chen Xing quickly recognized it, this was the symbol of the Silver Knight Guild, and it was called the "Double Cross" by the mercenaries at the bottom.
The Silver Knights Guild is a cross-kingdom and cross-continent organization made up of wandering nobles who have no territory or have lost their territory. On the Red Earth Continent, the Silver Knight has always been notorious, on the surface, under the banner of justice, and befriended the major forces, but behind the scenes, he burned, killed, looted, and did all kinds of evil.
The moment he saw the double cross, Chen Xing wanted to retreat. Whether the reputation of the Silver Knight Guild is good or bad, it is not something that he, or the demon girl in front of him, can fight against. The Silver Knights Guild is a behemoth, and it must have gathered a lot of strong people.
"When it gets dark, we'll go around and kill them all." Chen Xing was about to say retreat, but Aliya spoke first.
"We?" Chen Xing was stunned. What's going on, doesn't she want to live?
"There must be something good in there, otherwise these swarm of stink beetles wouldn't have come." Alia explained.
"What then?" Chen Xing asked. Robbing the Silver Knights' Guild, even if they succeed, they will be hunted down all over the world in the future.
"Isn't it enough to kill your mouth?" Alia tilted her head, like looking at a fool.
"If you want to go, go by yourself, don't pull me." Chen Xing said angrily.
"Okay, you can go back by yourself~" Alia said with a smirk.
Chen Xing's face immediately darkened, and he asked him to go back alone, just afraid that as soon as he walked out of the car valley, he would be swallowed by the mutant creatures. You know, even the boulder bear you first encountered can wipe out half of the Orchid Town team. Let him go alone, it's no different from sending him to death.
Aliya's eyebrows and eyes were slightly curved, and her tone was teasing, urging, "Hurry up, your mother Ye Yang is waiting for you to go back to feed~"
