Chapter Seventy-Five: A Refuge in the Mountains

Although his body and mental strength have not yet fully recovered, with his previous experience, he is more comfortable dealing with the second walking corpse mammoth.

After kicking the mammoth's corpse a few times to make sure it wouldn't move again, Joika shouted at the dark ruins around him, "Alright, you should come out too." ”

After half an hour, a man and a woman and seven remaining goblins came out of the ruins in all directions.

"Y-Who are you?" the young woman's voice trembled, and the horror in her eyes was no less than when she was being chased by the beast. In her opinion, the six people in front of her can actually defeat two walking corpse mammoths, but she is afraid that it is even more dangerous than those two monsters.

"That's exactly the question we're asking. Joyka retorted, "Who are you, and why are you here?"

"Fart! Why are we going to explain it to you?" the young woman's words were full of unfriendliness.

"Are you survivors of Wellonk?" asked Cassius.

"Humph!" the woman folded her hands, turned away, and let out a voice in a puff.

"How can this be true!" Ray was furious, "We have saved your lives and treated our saviors like this?"

"Who told you to save it?" the woman suddenly burst into a rage, like a shrew scolding the street, "you have so great skills, why don't you save Ivan and Sidorov?" I hate you...... Bastard...... Woo, woo......"

Cursing and scolding, the woman ran into a swarthy building, hugged her head and cried.

"I'm sorry. The man who was with the woman stepped forward and said to his companions in a polite tone, "I beg your pardon for Tsvetaeva having just lost her lover and brother, so she is so out of control." ”

Ivan and Sidorov's companions remembered the two men who had been broken in two and trampled into flesh by the beast. It turns out that one of the two of them is Tsvetaeva's lover, and the other is her brother?

"Just leave her alone?" Cassius walked up and pointed to the building where Tsvetaeva was.

"Her temperament is like this, and no one can persuade her. The man said, "By the way, who are you?"

"My name is Cassius, and although I am a federated learner, I left the Confederation before the cataclysm. It was my brother Ray who wielded the spear. This young lady is my Sophia......" Cassius introduced his companions one by one, "We are both Southerners, and we only entered the Federation from the Plains of Slavia a few days ago. ”

"I see. "No wonder you can use magic without restrictions. ”

"Let's not talk about that. Joika scooped a small piece of broken glass and asked, "Is it your masterpiece?"

"This ......" Vasily looked embarrassed, and for a moment did not know what to say.

"Forget it, there's no need to make a reason. Joyka raised her hand, lifted a rucksack, and said, "It's over, and we're not going to pursue it." Now that we've all found what we're looking for, let's go our separate ways. ”

"No!" Tsvetaeva suddenly ran back, snatched the rucksack from Joyka's hand, and shouted, "These are all bought by Ivan and Sidorov with their lives, you don't want to snatch them!" she looked directly at Joyka fearlessly, her eyes glittering with tears, revealing an irresistible insistence.

Facing this kind of look from a woman for the first time, Joyka didn't think of how to answer for a while, and was in a daze. At this time, Dani, who is also a woman, walked over and angrily rebuked, "What did you say, if it wasn't for us, you would have died a long time ago." I don't want to pursue the fact that you scooped us as a shield, and now you still want to monopolize the materials, do you want to be ashamed?"

What happened next was unexpected, as Tsvetaeva raised her hand and slapped Dani, but Dani reacted quickly and blocked her before the slap landed on her face.

Dani is also by no means a fuel-efficient lamp, and she was inexplicably angry when she was almost beaten, and when she raised her hand and was about to fight back, suddenly a man stopped between the two ladies with their hair. "It is not advisable to stay here for long, and if you have nowhere to go, you may as well stay in our sanctuary. Vasily quickly diverted the subject.

The early morning in the city of Madolu always makes people feel extra peaceful and serene. But this morning, the morning air in the city was mixed with the very thin smell of burning.

"Where did you go all night yesterday?" Julien Rousseau, who had not returned all night, had just entered the door when he heard Serena furious.

"I'm very sorry. Julian seemed to have expected this, and he replied respectfully, "I have important things that must be done." ”

"Too important to let me know so that you can go out without my consent?" Serena growled.

"I promise, there will be no next time. ”

Julian then proceeded to his bedroom.

"Wait. ”

Julian stopped.

"Last night, a fire broke out in Dante's tavern, which burned the entire tavern to the ground, and when the fire was extinguished, two charred bodies of adults and children were found. You killed his wife and son?"

"Nope. Julian's answer was crisp and unhesitating.

Seemingly a little surprised by Julian's reaction, Selina was stunned for 2 seconds before a look of disbelief began to climb her face: "No, you don't mean to sue me, it's a coincidence." ”

"Why not? Maybe the Holy See did it, because Dante failed to bring them what they needed and disappeared all day. It is also possible that the fire was purely accidental. ”

Selina knew that Julian had been so discerning that she had rehearsed it in her mind countless times.

"Madam, if nothing else, I'll go back to my room and rest. After a few seconds of silence, Julian gave Serena a solemn salute and then turned and walked back to his bedroom.

At more than 1,600 meters above sea level, the highest peak of Mount Pentanif in the southeast of Wellonk City is the second highest mountain in the snowy federation after Silver Dragon Mountain, and the terrain is steep and steep. There is a col about 600 meters above sea level in the northwest of the mountain, although it is located at a high altitude, but because it is blocked by mountains and the wind is not strong, the temperature inside the col is warmer than outside, and the largest goblin breeding farm in the federation is located in this col.

As soon as the companions left Wellconk City, they heard a chilling howl from the city behind them. As if attracted by the smell of human flesh, a large group of insects and walking corpses hidden in the city began to come out and move. Fortunately, the partners withdrew early, otherwise there would have been another big battle. After first meeting up with the Ukrainians outside the city, they followed Tsvetaeva and Vasily to Mount Pentanif with the dogs and the lambs. The mountain trail at night was very rough, and in order to avoid being spotted by the walking corpses roaming the wild, the team did not use any lighting items, and the progress was extremely slow. On the way, Tsvetaeva was as cold as ever, and it was Vasily who was in charge of briefing the situation in the shelter.

It turned out that Vasily was a battle mage before drinking the veto potion, and as a student of the Minister of War, he was directly subordinate to Gomenloyev's immediate troops. After the cataclysm, Gomenloyev died unexpectedly, and the War Department was leaderless, and several cadres who originally belonged to the War Department fled with their own people. Vasily left the "Silver Mountain" with his senior, Sergeevich, who was also a student of Gomenloyev and a former cadre of the Ministry of War.

Sergeevich, a former three-ring mage who was responsible for the training and breeding of mammoth war elephants in the Ministry of War, took four mammoths with him, and under their protection, Sergeevich and his team of escapees finally managed to reach the goblin farm located in the col on Mount Pentaniv, and united with the survivors who escaped from the city of Wikonk to turn the goblin farm into a sanctuary. Sergeevich was the top head of the shelter.

Compared to the Polfishagrad prison, the number of people in the vault on Mount Pentaniv is much smaller, just over 300, and there are about 500 more goblins. They are like refugees in prison shelters, who must regularly send people back to the city of Wellconk down the hill in search of food and other livelihoods. The initial search mission was quite smooth. Because, the mammoth used in war, when fighting, the limbs and head will be wrapped in heavy armor made of metal, and even the sword cannot be cut, and the teeth of the walking corpse naturally have no effect on the armor, and it is by relying on the strong power of the mammoth and the protection of the armor that the people sent to search for supplies can move freely in the pile of walking corpses all over the city.

Four months ago, however, an unexpected and strange event occurred that changed the lives of the refugees. A red-haired, burn-wounded female mage suddenly appears in the vault and abducts the children living in the vault. In order to protect the child, Sergeevich commanded 4 mammoths to fight the woman, but he did not want to be killed by the woman, and in the end he was unable to protect the child, and there were only 14 children under the age of 10 in the shelter, and they were taken away by the woman overnight.

Although the woman never returned, it didn't end there. The two mammoths she killed suddenly resurrected a day later, turned into walking corpses, and trampled on the humans they had protected during their lifetimes, but fortunately, Sergeevich made a quick decision to lure the two walking corpse mammoths to the edge of the cliff, and then commanded the remaining two normal mammoths to knock them off the cliff. Originally, they thought that after the two walking corpse mammoths fell from an altitude of more than 600 meters, they would be crushed on the spot, but they did not expect that the two elephant corpses stood up again and wandered down the mountain, which was shocking.

From then on, the search for supplies in the city became extremely dangerous, not only did they have to avoid the countless humans turned into walking corpses, but also the two monsters, however, even the slightest carefulness could be discovered. During the last search operation, the search team was chased into the city by the two walking corpse mammoths, and although most of them managed to escape, the two monsters remained in the city, posing a great threat to future search operations.

Yesterday, the supplies were exhausted again, and after discussion, Tsvetaeva, Vasily, Ivan, and Sidorov led 15 green goblins to venture to Wikonk to search for supplies under the noses of the walking corpses and the two giant beasts...... But the result was so tragic, Ivan and Sidorov were tragically killed, in addition, they also lost 8 green goblins, if they didn't meet these outsiders, I am afraid that they will be wiped out.

As they walked and talked, it was almost dawn, and they reached their destination. The gate of the shelter was guarded by two armored mammoths, and compared to the two walking corpses at the bottom of the mountain, it was obvious that these two giant beasts had been hungry for a long time, malnourished, and very thin, and once the two mammoths starved to death and the walking corpses besieged the shelter, everyone inside would be doomed. It can be seen from this that the mission of the four Vasily is extremely important.

When 9 people, 7 green goblins, 48 dogs and 1 horse entered the shelter on the high mountain, many onlookers were watched, and some people even ran excitedly to tell each other that Vasily had brought not only supplies back to the city, but also a large amount of fresh dog and horse meat. However, the companions watched their mounts very closely, and they did not let the sharpened and drooling refugees get close to the dogs and horses. Sophia feared that the crowd would suddenly get out of control and rush up, and the Uzbek said that whoever dared to fight his horse would be slaughtered immediately. Vasily arranged for his companions to be in a row of vacated wooden houses near the gate, and then left with Tsvetaeva, saying that he would inform the head of the shelter, Sergeevich.

After the two left, the partners got together for a meeting.

"It turns out that there is more than one shelter. Sophia looked around and said, "There must be similar shelters in other cities." It seems that there must be quite a few survivors in the Federation. ”

"It is not clear how many survivors there were, but one thing is certain: Ishnova's mother was here and took all the children away. Remember, she attacked the prison shelter to catch children, what do you say she's trying to get children around?" Cassius said, the question that had been swirling around the road.

"Who knows? Joyka spread her hands, "By the way, Vasily, I have some ominous premonitions when I told the ice-faced woman to find the person in charge." ”

"Whatever. Anyway, we won't stay too long, it's enough to have a meal and a good night's sleep. "Lei Dao.

"Well, I could take a hot shower. "Dani came up with an unrealistic idea.

Just when the friends were chatting. Suddenly there was a lot of noise outside, and it seemed that there were a lot of people surrounding the hut, and it sounded like the attitude of these people was very unfriendly, because the friends could clearly hear someone shouting "get rid of them" and "tell them to get out.......
