Chapter 4, Chapter 5: Refugee Camps
Hao walked out of the valley, this valley still belongs to the territory of the Elf Empire, so there is not much danger, just pay attention to poisonous insects and poisonous snakes and the like, so Hao walked quite fast, when he walked out of the valley, it was already night outside, from the information Hao learned, this valley is not far from the border of the Elf Empire, and it is about two and a half to three days away from the refugee camp.
The journey of two and a half to three days is actually a very short distance compared to the size of the entire Flood Desolate Continent, if it is an extraordinary person, even if it is a first-order extraordinary profession, it can cross this distance in a few hours, Hao also envies those extraordinary people, but he finally understands that he is a human and cannot become a transcendent professional, at least not now, so how to do it or just do it.
Hao did not rush to the night, although this is still the territory of the Elven Empire, but the current situation is different from the past, now it is likely that the Great War of the Elves has broken out, and most of the troops of the Elf Empire are estimated to have been transferred to the front line, and although this is a border area, but from what Hao knows and analyzes, this direction is not the main battlefield, and even this direction does not have a strong force of all races, and the Elf Empire is unlikely to hoard heavy troops in this direction.
And on the desolate continent, unless it is a prosperous civilization zone, there are many fierce beasts and even demonic beasts in the wild, and there are patrols on the border of the elven empire all year round to expel and kill these fierce beasts and demonic beasts, but in the current situation, the elven empire is estimated to be unlikely to send troops to clean up for a long time, and there may have been fierce beasts or demonic beasts in this vicinity, and it is the time for these creatures to forage at night, and Hao does not plan to take this risk to hurry.
So he used the knowledge he had learned to find some fluff grass, and then used the flint he carried to light the fire, burned a piece of the ground to dry, and then moved the fire away, and the ground was dry and warm, and then he put the flannel on the ground, and at the same time drew a small circle around it with the ashes of the firecoals, and then squeezed out the juice of several plants and leaves he found and dripped them on the ashes of the coals, so as to prevent most of the insects and ants from entering it.
And with the firelight, and a warm place to sleep, there is no need to worry about food, the food he carries can be eaten for at least five days, and the night can basically pass.
Hao roasted the food and ate it, and after eating, he didn't go to sleep immediately, but began to think about the problems he encountered along the way.
First of all, he has a clear understanding of his physical strength, he has not been far away from the manor before, today he walked for half a day, about seven or eight hours, his physical strength was consumed by most of it, and there were even blood blisters on his feet, this physical strength was worse than he expected, not to mention compared with the transcendent, it was inferior to ordinary adult elves, and the walking speed was also a problem, according to his original idea of leaving the manor, he should have gone to the empty gate within three hours, but in fact it took twice as long, this is a huge calculation error, although there is dust covering, but even if there is no dust covering, he calculatedIt takes at least five hours to complete the journey.
(I took it for granted that in the manor, I exercised for a maximum of one and a half to two hours at a time, and according to the constant walking speed of one and a half to two hours, I could indeed reach my destination in three hours, but I overestimated my stamina and my will, and after I told me to walk for an hour and a half to two hours in a row, the speed would plummet, and the rest of the distance would take twice as long to complete, and the slower my speed would be, thanks to this opportunity, otherwise my plan would have been a huge error, and it seems that I need to be more cautious in the future, and I will have to be more careful in laying out my plans.) , otherwise, once there is a little mistake or omission in a certain ring, it may lead to a full loss. )
(Secondly, I still have too little to think about the dangers and secrets of the Flood Desolate Continent, and I still have little to read from books, and I have no experience, such as the empty door, I just listened to a few words, and I took it for granted that with the knowledge I have learned, it is enough to pass through this empty door, but who knows that the problem is impossible for me to know, fortunately...... No, not thankfully...... )
Hao thought of his flash of inspiration, the kind of answer he didn't know at all, this was not a flash of inspiration at all, it was more as if something directly told him the answer, and this made Hao even more vigilant.
There is no gratuitous gift in this world, there will be no pie in the sky, of course, there are also people who will see the stranger on the side of the road pitiful and feel pity, free to help, but this is actually not a gratuitous gift, first of all, you must see that the other party is pitiful, and then you have pity, and then give help, this is not essentially for no reason, and then think back at that time, Hao did not feel that there would be a great power just passing by, just saw him pitiful, just felt pity, just knew this answer, just gave him the answer, if there are really so many coincidences, then this is definitely not a coincidence, but some kind of inevitability。
(Is it my own secret?) Or is there a secret in the empty door?? There is not enough information to continue searching for information.) )
Hao threw a few branches into the fire, his eyes were gloomy, and he continued to think about what to do next, as for the previous question, he kept it in mind, there was always a way to test it.
(If all goes well, two and a half or three days later, I will enter the refugee camp, judging from the newspapers, the elves have undergone two major changes in their attitude towards humans in recent years, the first big change is that the elves have begun to accept us humans quickly, from top to bottom, the elves' attitude towards humans has become relaxed, no, it is not even a relaxation, it should be more like some kind of pandering, although this has caused dissatisfaction among the middle and lower classes of the elves, but it is clear that the elves have undergone a great purge during this period, not to mention, the middle-level dissatisfied elf government officials or professionals usually do not end well.) 。 )
(But after the world fell apart, the elves gradually began to be impatient with humans, and the high-level people had such behaviors and thoughts, especially the middle and lower classes, although there were no bad incidents, but the humans who could have entered the territory of the elves began to be relocated outside the elves on a large scale, and refugee camps and shelters were set up to house these humans, although the newspapers were vague, but it was obvious that the treatment of these humans would never be very good, and there were probably a lot of violent incidents...... )
Hao has been trying to analyze the possible reasons, such as why he was so good to humans during the first transformation of the elves, and why was he suddenly like this to humans during the second transformation of the elves? There must be secrets in this that he does not know, but it is still limited to too little information for him to deduce.
But no matter what, the elves can still be regarded as the most friendly to humans and the most helpful race among all the races in the wilderness, Hao can even imagine that in this war of all races, if there is no shelter and shelter of the elves, how miserable the fate of the humans in these shelters and refugee camps will be, the elves have given humans a way to live, a bite to eat, this kindness is very great, not to mention that it is bigger than the sky, but at least it is enough for Hao to remember.
(With such a condition of analysis, so far, the safety in the refugee camp is still there, but it is only temporary, if I expect it to be correct, the war of all races really starts again, then the refugee camp will soon become a free-range place, even if the location of these refugee camps is not included in the battlefield, the elves will soon no longer give supplies, and even as these humans gather in the refugee camp for a long time, the elves may not necessarily be patient with the humans, and the drive is good, maybe there are junior officers who will vent to the humans in these refugee camps.) ...... )
Thinking of this, Hao involuntarily clenched his palm, and only released his palm after a long time and continued to think.
(So the camp can only be used as a temporary stop, and I have to decide where to go as soon as possible, whether to start now, to find the existence of the human city, or to find a way to find the elven master...... No, it's nothing to think about!)
Hao thought of the tribe that had left everyone in order to let him stay, and he immediately made up his mind in his heart.
(If I find the elven master, there is a high probability that she will continue to shelter me and let me have no worries about food and clothing in the elven empire, but there is a high probability that I will die in the elven empire, and the humans in the refugee camp will most likely perish, I can't do this!)
Hao knows one thing, that is, almost all human beings are ignorant primitive humans, he has not learned so much knowledge before, he doesn't know so much information and doesn't understand, but now he knows that there is no inheritance of knowledge, no source of information, and there are not enough encounters, almost all human beings in the Flood Continent exist in the form of primitive tribes, there is no so-called civilization, and there is no background and accumulation, even if there is an occasional human who encounters the sky, it is almost difficult to make a difference, so Hao knows how precious the knowledge he has learned is, which almost all human beings cannot have。
Therefore, he has the obligation and responsibility to bring changes to mankind, and use the knowledge he has learned to change, just like the husband of the elf master, I don't know what the kind and strong man of that race said, even if he does not have extraordinary power, if he can develop a strong enough civilization, he also has the power to fight against all races, all of this requires knowledge, and he happens to have knowledge!
(When you arrive at the refugee camp, take a look at the situation, confirm the battle situation, and then find out as much information as possible about the surrounding area, and then if you can, take the humans in the refugee camp out of there, the empty gate near here...... Large and small, based on the itinerary within ten days, there are three, two of which belong to the empty gate of the elf clan military management class, which is unlikely to let us pass through, and the other is a random teleportation class...... )
The more Hao thought about it, the more unpleasant his face became, he sighed, looked up at the sky, the stars in the sky were one after another, inexplicably, he thought of the day when the earth cracked and the stars shattered.
(It's really difficult, but I can't give up, but if I have this opportunity, I have this responsibility and obligation, if even I give up, then they really have no hope.) )
(The biggest problem now is that we don't confirm the authenticity of the human city, if it is false, the next plan will have to be rewritten, if it is true, then where is the human city? Why is there a human city? What does the human city rely on to defend all races? These have to be carefully searched and cleared, and then the flood is so big, I don't know how many years it will take to go to the human city...... But I won't give up, my mother, my patriarch, my relatives have all gone to Human City, yes, they must all be in Human City, I must go and find them!)
After making up his mind, Hao settled down and thought carefully about his next move.
First of all, he must find a way to gain the trust of the people in this refugee camp, at the critical moment, they will follow his arrangement, and secondly, he has to integrate them, he already has some ideas about this Hao, many of the military books and political books he has seen have emphasized that many times not the number represents everything, or even the power represents everything, unless it is an absolutely overwhelming force, such as the Holy Throne God to mortals, otherwise, it is the organized power that is the most powerful, of course, these are things later。
(Food, fresh water, medicine, tools, weapons, these are the five things that are necessary, I count the five thousand to ten thousand people in the camp, and when I want to lead them away, there will only be a thousand people who will follow me, and the migration of a thousand people is completely different from my own wild walking, this is very different, this is very different, it must be properly arranged in advance, otherwise it may only take two or three days to go out, and hundreds of people will die...... )
Hao has some ideas about food and fresh water, not to mention that medicine, tools, and weapons are a little difficult to handle, and for these things, after all, you have to deal with the border guards of the elf clan......
(It's okay, just left, I don't even know life and death, after all, I'm sorry for the elf master, even if it's just the nurturing grace of these days, I should say goodbye to her, and she is more than that, teaching me to read and write, teaching me all kinds of truths, although I don't have much contact, but she is really a good person, a good elf...... )
After thinking about this, Hao felt a little relieved, and fell asleep by this campfire.
The next two days were nothing serious, Hao was in a hurry every day, testing his endurance and strength at the same time, and when maintaining a constant speed, how fast to walk for the longest time, when running, what kind of speed can be maintained for the longest, what kind of speed can be both long and fast, these are all things that he can't get enough test information in the manor, and he has tested them one by one in the past two days.
Then two days later, at dusk, he came to the border of the Elven Empire where the refugee camp was located, which was a plain outside the forest, a wooden fence the size of a small town, surrounded by hundreds of wooden buildings, just from the architectural point of view, this refugee camp is actually not bad, not comfortable, but at least it can shelter from the wind and rain, and the internal structure is orderly, which makes Hao's face look much better.
And in the distance of this refugee camp, about fifty kilometers away, there is a huge steel fortress, this fortress is very huge, the volume is at least more than a hundred times that of this refugee camp, like a steel city, even if it is fifty kilometers away, Hao can still see the huge of this fortress, and when he sees this fortress, he is relieved.
Judging from the situation of this fortress, this place has not been attacked, it is not the main battlefield, and with the existence of this fortress, the safety of human beings in this refugee camp is temporarily guaranteed.
(Now, I need to find a way to get in touch with the border guards here, and then find my elven master through them step by step, and then rely on the elven master to get enough medicine, tools, and weapons...... This is the only way. )
Hao sighed, he felt that he owed more and more to the elf master, and he didn't know if there was a chance to repay it in the future, so he walked towards the refugee camp, there were elf patrol soldiers outside the camp, and they didn't embarrass Hao, in recording the information reported by Hao, such as the name of the tribe, where it came from, whether there was an infectious disease or something, in fact, he asked so much, recorded so much, whether it was Hao or these elves know, this is just perfunctory, even if Hao has an infectious disease, most of it can't affect the elves, and any magic will be gone, and the human refugees are basically dead, which has nothing to do with them.
But no matter what, Hao was not treated harshly, he got a metal card, assigned him a room, and also told him to have two meals every morning and evening, not to run around, not to go near the military fortress or anything, these elven soldiers easily let him go.
And Hao entered this refugee camp, it seems that the whole refugee camp is still good, at least there is no starvation, garbage, or feces everywhere in this camp, the tribesmen who are lying around, sitting, and walking in this camp at least look good, not to mention emaciated, not obese, at least they still live a little human.
(Elven ...... We humans owe you something, and I hope I can repay you in the future, no matter what you are doing to help us humans, but this help is really too important, thank you. )
Hao looked at the refugee camp, he exhaled, found the room he was assigned and walked in, the interior was very simple, there was nothing but a bed, but Hao knew that this was a paradise that I don't know how many human tribes could not think of.
He lay down on the bed with peace of mind, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.
He's going to be very, very busy starting tomorrow.
