Chapter 100: The Caravan
Under the gray sky, there is an endless wilderness.
Ye Yu had been walking silently for five days, the backing city was far behind, and the rushing backing mountain river became calm and extended into the endless distance. It's no longer a relatively safe wasteland, but a treacherous wilderness.
After walking without eating or drinking for five days in a row, Ye Hao's physical fitness also felt a little unbearable, and he finally stopped his mechanical footsteps and began to look around.
This is a barren flat land, perhaps not an inhabited place a hundred years ago, and after a hundred years of time, there is no trace of human beings at all. Dense weeds grew in all directions, and occasionally one or two large trees could be seen, and the leaves were almost gone.
Ye Yu didn't dare to drink the water from the Gushan River, he heard that the river had been polluted, and the water in it would affect his body after drinking, and even mutate into a mutant. Although he didn't know if the soul warrior would be affected, Ye Yu didn't dare to bet.
Just as he was thinking about where to find something to eat, he heard a rustling sound behind a weed, and then a black shadow swooped down on Ye Yu like lightning.
If it were someone else, it is estimated that he would have been thrown to the ground a long time ago, but unfortunately this time the attacker was facing Ye Yu with a sensory anomaly. At the moment when the black shadow pounced out, Ye Yu had already made a dodge move. Letting go of the shadow's punge, he raised his fist and smashed it over.
A punch hit the opponent's body, Ye Yu felt that the tentacles were cold and slippery, and the part of the hit squirmed for a while, and he actually reduced his strength by more than half, but Ye Yu's punch was not so easy to eliminate, so the black shadow was still heavily knocked out.
What attacked Ye Yu was a giant snake about three meters long, and its bucket-sized waist was covered with scales the size of a palm, which was very terrifying just to look at. In the open mouth of the blood basin, the tip of a pair of fangs faintly revealed a touch of emerald green, and the blood-red snake hyacinth retracted back and forth. But the most peculiar thing is the two sharp claws that grow out of the belly of the giant snake, the sharp nails glowing with cold light, and the slashing sound is made between strokes.
Clawed snakes? There was a word in Ye Hao's mind, this was the soul beast knowledge that he was making up for in the backing mountain city. The claw snake is also one of the soul beasts, and it is considered a relatively strong type of soul beast, it is extremely fast, the scales are hard, the defense is strong, and a pair of sharp claws can easily tear the body of a third-level genetic modification warrior. In addition, the venom of the clawed snake is also a terrible weapon, once it is bitten by that sharp fang, it will be poisoned and killed within half a minute, and there is absolutely no room for treatment.
If the claw snake evolves, it will become a second-level soul beast steel claw snake, listening to the name, it probably means that the claws have become harder, anyway, Ye Yu has never seen it, and the target of the expedition hunting team organized by the mountain city was a steel claw snake. And no one knows what the steel-clawed snake will look like if it evolves again, Ye Yu suspects that if it evolves according to its shape, I'm afraid it will have to turn into a dragon like in myths and legends?
The claw snake took a punch from Ye Yu and coiled on the ground and stared at each other vigilantly. Rao is that its scales are strong, and it uses its flexible body to unload the force in time, and this punch almost makes it faint. After all, Ye Yu was already a contra fighter, and he directly shattered the scales of the claw snake with one punch.
After weighing the difference in strength between the two sides, the claw snake wisely chose to escape.
Seeing that the other party wanted to slip away, where was Ye Yu willing to do it, this was the best food, he was so hungry that he was growling, how could he let the food in his hand slip away. In an instant, the "Variable Speed Gear" activated, and as soon as the clawed snake's body stood up, it was completely frozen in mid-air.
Ye Yu just wanted to make a move, but suddenly his ears moved, and he saw a streamer flashing in the distance, and a steel arrow flew over with a whistling eye, shooting through the head of the clawed snake.
Ye Yu stretched out his hands and released the ability of the "speed gear", and the claw snake shook and smashed its huge body to the ground.
"Hahaha, good harvest!" A cheerful voice came from the nearby col, and in a chaotic sound of footsteps, the group turned out of their hiding place.
Ye Yu swept his eyes, and he had already seen them completely clearly, a group of twelve people, all carrying large bags and small bags of things, dressed and looked like they were not wilderness nomads, and several of them were burly and awe-inspiring, at least they were all third-level genetic modification warriors.
The strength of this group alone is almost comparable to that of an expeditionary hunting party in a mountain city. Walking at the front was a young man in his twenties, looking at his size, it seemed that he was already a third-level genetically modified warrior, thinking about the poles and pillars that were about the same age as him, they were only first-level genetically modified warriors.
The young man held a large bow nearly two meters long in his hand, and ran towards the clawed snake corpse on the ground with a happy face, showing off as he ran: "Seeing that my skills are not there, this clawed snake was shot in the head by me without even reacting." ”
Ye Yu was speechless for a while, but he didn't speak, just watched coldly as the group collected the corpse of the clawed snake.
"Hey, look at your appearance, you're just a first-level genetically modified warrior, right? You are also bold enough to wander around this wilderness, and you are lucky to meet us. The young man said to Ye Hao, "If it weren't for my precise arrow, you would probably have been eaten by the clawed snake, don't thank me, who made me so helpful?" ”
“…………”
"Alright, Nishiki, come back!" Beside him, a majestic voice sounded, and the young man stuck out his tongue and slipped back like a baby.
The voice was a strong man with a height of more than two meters, his figure was not much stronger than that of a third-level genetically modified warrior, but he had an awe-inspiring momentum, and Ye Yu faintly felt that he might be a fourth-level or even higher genetically modified warrior.
"Little brother, a man seeking a life in the wilderness?" He walked in front of Ye Yu in a few steps and looked Ye Yu up and down.
I have to say that Ye Hao's figure is simply thin compared to a genuine Contra fighter like Shui Meng, and he is basically a little stronger than a first-level genetically modified warrior, and he himself doesn't quite understand how this muscle plays out of Contra-level strength. Obviously, this group of people also didn't realize that Ye Yu was a powerful contradictory fighter at all.
"I'm going to Skywind City." Ye Yu replied dryly, he was not worried that these people would be unfavorable to him, as soon as the "gear shifting" was opened, except for this big man, d
"Windy City? That's a long way off. The strong man was stunned for a moment, not knowing if Ye Yu was talking nonsense casually or if he really wanted to go, "It's not that I said, little brother, you have to go to Tianfeng City, it's difficult." ”
Ye Yu shrugged his shoulders, too lazy to argue with him, if he didn't understand, he wouldn't understand, the road went to one side of the sky, as long as he didn't stop himself. He was about to leave when the strong man suddenly spoke, "Does the little brother know the way to Heavenly Wind City?" ”
Ye Yu was stunned, he really didn't know the way. Seeing Ye Yu's expression, the strong man said: "Little brother doesn't know the way, and there is no water and food supply at all, so it's too dangerous to go to Tianfeng City like this." It's better to come with us and go to the Three Rock City in front first, and it's not too late to get the detailed route and supplies to Tianfeng City before hitting the road. ”
Ye Yu groaned slightly, then nodded, anyway, he can't be in a hurry now, he walks around alone, and the possibility of taking a fork in the road is indeed very high, it is better to ask the road clearly, and by the way, inquire about the information of Tianfeng City and Mr. Swallow, and it is not too late to make adequate preparations.
Thinking of this, Ye Yu stretched out his right hand to the strong man. "My name is Ye Yu, I'll trouble you all the way."
"Where, where." The strong man held his hand, "My name is West Soul, and I am the leader of this caravan. ”
