Chapter 6: Rhodes and the Ringfall Forest
After eating, Rod took Mohe and Luo Yi to a cave deep in the cave
The cave is surrounded by green vegetation
Several beams of sunlight fell from above the cave, and countless flying particles were interspersed in the sunlight, clearly visible
Mohe entered the cave and found that there were two rope ladders hanging in the cave, the ropes were made of green vines, but there were no traces of man-made, and they were natural
"Go up, our work is on it"
Rod said as he climbed the rope ladder
Luo Yi stared at herself from behind, thinking that she wanted to let herself go first, after all, she was still wearing a dress
With a shudder, Mohe hurriedly followed Rhodes
The more you go up, the more sunlight you get, and the sun makes Mohe's whole body warm and very comfortable, and you have been in the dark and damp cave for a long time, and you are uncomfortable, and the sunlight at this time is just right
At the apex, Mohe bent down slightly and handed his hand down, Luo Yi subconsciously held Mohe's hand and jumped up
Luo Yi reacted immediately, his face flushed slightly, and shouted
"Humph! As my valet, is that all you have, can't you carry me up just now? β
Mohe smiled awkwardly, Luo Yi really had to inch in
Mohe also came back to his senses, just now he had forgotten that Luo Yi was a female tyrannosaurus
She's only 1.5 meters now, and she looks harmless to humans and animals, but it's actually completely unbelievable!
Mohe secretly reminded himself not to judge people by their appearance in the future! That's not right
On the top of the cave was a piece of land, mountains and jungles in the distance were faintly visible, and there were animal skin tents around the Mohe, and people came out of the tents from time to time
"I didn't expect that the cave we were in was actually in the cliff," Mohe looked at the cliff not far away
It's been two years since he fled to the cave, and he's been living a muddle among the scavengers, and only now does he know anything about his dwelling
"Well, the jungle below has been simply cleared by us a year ago, and the danger factor is much smaller than the jungle here, and the upper level of the Decider handed it over to the scavengers and guardians to collect materials, also to train these people, hoping that they can evolve as soon as possible"
Rod walked over lightly and patted Mohe on the shoulder
"Exercise? Isn't it abandonment? β
Mohe recalled the difficulties he had when he was a scavenger and guardian, and it was impossible to say that he did not complain, where could he eat and drink every day compared to the patrolmen inside?
"Abandonment? People who don't have magic energy in their bodies can't eat irradiated meat, can't drink irradiant water, not even take a bath! Natural selection, they are now like sick pets that we raise! β
Rhodes argued, but he was frightened by Mohe's words
Mohe was silent, it was true that he was a little overemotional just now, he remembered the little boy who was kicked by him yesterday, remembered the experience of being a scavenger and guardian for two years, and there was no way not to bring emotions in
"I'm sorry, I just got a little out of control"
Taking a deep breath, Mohe said apologetically, no one has the obligation to help anyone, not to mention that this is the end of the world without rules, and if you want to get it, you must pay first!
"Well, let's go, we'll have two more people in the team."
Rhodes said and walked towards the animal skin tent on the left, Mohe looked around, there were many tents but few people moved
Without saying hello, Rod and Luo Yi directly opened the closed curtain of the tent and walked in
At first glance, he was used to it, and Mohe didn't go in the first time after him
"Ah, Sister Rod, you're here, come and sit here"
A charming, languid female voice came from the tent
"Haha, Luo Yi Xiaoni!"
"Don't pinch my face!" Luo Yi's slightly angry voice came out
"Put it on," Rod was a little anxious
Mohe entered the tent before he could hear Rod's speech
"Ahh
The girl inside screamed before she could finish speaking, and threw a shoe at Mohe
Mohe quickly dodged and got out of the tent,
After a while, Rod called Mohe in
"This is Mohe, our new member!"
"Mohe, this is Lin Lan"
Mohe and Lin Lan looked at each other, but Mohe didn't expect Lin Lan to be a big beauty
"Hello, I'm Mohe," Mohe looked at it for a while and said to Lin Lan with a smile
"Hello," Lin Lan's voice was so small that Mohe almost couldn't hear it
I didn't expect Lin Lan to be so shy, compared to talking to Rod and Luo Yi before
"Okay, now that everyone knows each other, let's go to the gate of the camp, it is estimated that Ye Hu is also in a hurry"
When Rod saw that Mohe and Lin Lan knew each other, he opened his mouth and said, and after speaking, he urged them to leave, and when he left, Lin Lan had an extra pair of bows and arrows and quivers on his back
"Now this camp is now divided into two districts, one is what you see, this is the temporary residence of hunters, we mainly go to the cave to live, after all, there is no electricity and no water here, we are not used to living, and the second district has various trading places, and it is also the residence of various strong and high-level people."
Rhodes walked and explained the situation
"Hunters? Isn't it a patrolman?"
"You can't talk nonsense here, it's the ignorance of the scavengers in the cave who think that the hunters are the waste that guards the cave, but they don't know that we are the ones who really give them safety."
Rod shrugged and explained to Mohe
"Why didn't you enter the second district to live, you should be very powerful" said Mohe skimmed and followed behind Luo Yi, who was expressionless
Rod smiled wryly
"Don't be too naΓ―ve, there are people outside the world, there are heavens outside the sky, we are just a slightly higher team among hundreds of squads, and we are far less than a few top squads and escort teams in the second district"
Chatting about the day's work, Mohe and the others have already walked to the door of the camp, where people come and go, a sturdy mutant horse is crying from time to time, and a muscular man with a big knife is waiting at the door
"Ye Hu, here," Rod shouted to the man
Ye Hu turned around, stretched out his hand slightly, and signaled that he understood
"This is a new member, Mohe"
"Mohe, this is Ye Hu"
Rhodes still helped the two get to know each other
"Yo roar! Welcome to join us, young man," Ye Hu smiled brightly and patted Mohe
"Well, hello" This time it was Mohe's turn to be a little overwhelmed, it was the first time he had seen someone so enthusiastic about him in the last days
Rhodes rented a mutated carriage with a white magic core at the door, and left the camp with the group
Along the way, Ye Hu chatted with Mohe quite enthusiastically, especially when he liked to talk about his pre-apocalyptic events, and his eyes were full of memories
He used to be a car mechanic, and he had started a family with his lover, and the family was not rich but could live, but the end of the world made him lose his wife and parents
Mohe listened to Ye Hu's words silently, and felt that Ye Hu's nerves were a little big, and people living in this period would try their best to avoid this topic, but he was the only one here to talk about it
Who has survived until now who has not experienced a few heart-rending partings of life and death?
Didn't you see that Lin Lan, who was still quite interested in whispering to Luo Yan just now, heard Ye Hu's words and fell silent, even with Luo Yi's eyes a little red?
The silence of the three made the nervous Ye Hu also feel that something was wrong, touched his head awkwardly, and stopped talking
In the carriage, Mohe and Ye Hu sat together, Luo Yi and Lin Lan were together, and Luo Luo was driving
It wasn't until we arrived at the location that the atmosphere eased slightly
"Alright, it's time for the Ringfall Forest," Rod called out in his voice
Mohe got out of the carriage and found that this was a place similar to a post station, where people who came to Huanluo Forest to do tasks put their rented carriages here, and there were scavengers to help hunters take care of mutated horses
After all, there are only a few people with magical energy, and the whole camp is no more than five hundred people, so there are not a few scavengers who serve as laborers here, and the treatment of the scavengers here is slightly better than that in the cave, after all, it is for the hunters here, and the treatment is definitely better than the scavengers who have no meal in the cave
Ye Hu wiped the broadsword he was carrying slightly, and here he was about to start preparing for battle
Lin Lan also took out the bow and pulled it to ensure that there would be no problems during the battle
Only Luo Yi looked around with nothing to do
Rhodes finished putting the carriage out and came out to Mohe Road
"Mohe, I don't know your ability yet, can you tell me a little bit, I'll assign tasks"
"Well, my ability is marksmanship and ......" was covered by Rod before he could finish speaking
"There are a lot of people here, just say that the marksmanship is enough, and tell me later"
Rod said in his ear
Mohe nodded slightly, and then stopped talking
"Hmph, the manservant's ability is only to do hygiene and serve me."
Luo Yi interjected boredly next to him and said
"Okay, when we are fighting, Ye Hu and I will open the way in front, and Mohe and Lin Lan will aim randomly in the middle."
Speaking of this, Rodt paused, and said slowly in Luo Yi's dissenting eyes
"His Royal Highness Luoyi!"
ββββββ
On the way, Rhodes also told Mohe that this team's mission was to go to the middle of the Huanluo Forest to find a black plant called Tianyang Grass on the rock wall, which is said to be rich in magic energy, which can quickly restore the wounds of the injured, and is an excellent herb for healing, of course, killing more monsters on the road to increase the magic core is the real purpose of the team
Team task, Mohe asked Rhodes, Rhodes said that it is a necessary task for each team to maintain its ranking, the more you do, the better the benefits, like the top ten is to live in the second district and enjoy a series of benefits
It didn't take long for Mohe and his party to go a few hundred meters deep into the Huanluo Forest, and under the guidance of Rhodes, they were heading towards the target on her map
When there were no people, Mohe also told Rhodes and others about their abilities, although the people in the last days were unpredictable, but this time Mohe still chose to believe them, just like the last time he saved the girl with a thick tumor
Mohe felt that if he had to say a reason, it was that he didn't want to be a ruthless profit-driven man
Ye Hu looked at the pale green armor that Mohe had formed in front of him after taking off his clothes, and laughed
"The real striker of our squad has been found, and I can be more relaxed in the future."
Luo Yi didn't speak, but kept pointing his fingers at the nail piece on his chest, chanting
"Let the valet be my sparring partner or something in the future"
Frightened, Mohe hurriedly put on his clothes and remained silent
"Whew!" Lin Lan didn't get distracted to look at Mohe, but shot an arrow with ice, which actually hit a demon wolf's head, and the demon wolf fell to the ground and died
"Okay, now everyone has to cheer up, don't be yin by the monster"
Rhodes ran to the wolf and pried open its head with a dagger, taking out a white crystal nucleus
