Chapter 004: The Night of the Blood Moon

"Able to hunt mammoths?!" A look of surprise appeared on Kang Hu's face. It's just that, anyone with one or two levels of Force power on his body can easily kill him.

But the mammoth in the ancient land is extremely fierce, with extremely thick skin and flesh, a manic personality, and a social life. Once they discover the breath of the alien race, they will chase and kill them wildly. The powerhouses below the eighth level did not dare to approach them easily.

Force level seven or eight warriors, the galaxy world is not uncommon, they are the backbone of the galaxy country's elite legions. But in Gulu, it is unusual.

The ancient continent of Egypt seems to reject all the Force. Whether it is a person who cultivates the Force, or a machine that uses the kinetic energy of the Force, it is strongly suppressed in this place.

There are limits to the use of the Force here. People can't exert the Force above level six, and the more powerful the Force, the more severely suppressed they will be here.

If the Force is more than a powerhouse of the twelfth level and penetrates into the ancient land for more than a day, the Force will fall by one level, and it will be very difficult to restore the original realm, and it will even be permanently damaged.

The same is true for machines, where only the crude Kinetic Matrix engines of the early days of the Force Steam Age can be powered properly. This is also the reason why Kenan Messer's pontoon boat fell. However, Kanghu's pontoon fleet was equipped with low-kinetic pontoon engines in advance to survive.

In fact, the reason why this ancient continent, the initial rise of the Terran race, was abandoned for a long time was precisely because of this characteristic that restricted the development of the Terran power. Therefore, whether it is the natives of the ancient continent or the outsiders of the galaxy world, their strength is very limited.

So when Kang Hu heard that there was still someone in Gu Lu who could fight with Gu Lu Mammoth like this, he was shocked in his heart, which can be imagined.

"Well, Uncle Martin is very good at setting traps......"

Qin Shi's tone was full of admiration. If he also had such ability, how could life be so hard?

"Okay......"

Hearing this, Kang Hu was disappointed in his heart. He mustered up his spirits and focused on the ancient castle mentioned by Qin Shi.

However, it is a pity that Qin Shi does not have a grasp of the details of the ancient castle. It is said that this is a story that Martin would only tell when he was drunk, and no one in Qingning Town believes that it is true.

"Okay......" Kang Hu was a little speechless. After careful questioning, Kang Hu learned that Uncle Martin, whom Qin Shi seemed to admire, was an old drunkard.

Except for the dark moon season, when he was sober and went out hunting, he was drunk and dreamed of death the rest of the time. More than half of the liquor in Qingning Town was sold to him.

"......" Qin Shi thought of this Uncle Martin, a faint smile appeared on his face, Martin was also the person who had the best relationship with him in the entire Qingning Town, and it was inevitable that a few words would turn to this person.

Kang Hu was not impatient, Qin Shi's unintentional words brought out the information was the daily life of the indigenous people of the ancient continent, the living habits of the aborigines, but it was closely related to the environment, and it was also worth searching.

Qin Shi raised his head, ready to change his posture and continue to speak, but his raised neck seemed to be grabbed from behind, frozen and still, and a trace of fear appeared in his eyes.

"What's wrong?"

Kang Hu noticed that Qin Shi was abnormal.

"Blood, blood moon...... Damn, how could there be a blood moon at this time, it only appeared once the year before last! ”

A look of vigilance and fear appeared on Qin Shi's face, and he pointed in the direction of Qingluan Mountain, and then he said in a low and nervous voice: "Put out all the bonfires!" Can't make a sound!"

Although Qin Shi looked panicked, the instinct to survive in the wilderness burst out: "Quick! Once the Blood Moon appears, there will be a lot of things in the wasteland that you wouldn't normally see! When the blood moth sees the fire, it will fly out of the cave! ”

Kang Hu looked in the direction of Qin Shi's finger, and the undulating mountains in the distance, I don't know when the dense fog had dissipated, and a dark red moon quietly appeared at the end of the horizon.

"Blood Moon?!"

Kang Hu's heart is also awe-inspiring.

He was not ignorant of the ancient Egyptian continent.

The Blood Moon has a special meaning in the Ancient Lands, and that means absolute disaster. When the Blood Moon appears, it awakens the strange creatures that lie dormant in the ancient land, which are either immensely powerful and brutal by nature, or extremely poisonous, and there are so many of them that no grass grows everywhere they go.

After the Blood Moon, the disaster is not over, a black storm from nowhere will sweep across the floating land, and many Terran cities are often wiped out after the black storm sweeps away.

Fortunately, blood moons don't happen very often. But there is evidence that blood moons are occurring more and more frequently. Since records began, blood moons have tended to occur only once in three to five hundred years. However, in the past 100 years, blood moons have become more and more frequent, initially once every 30 years, and now now they have become once every 35 years.

"Extinguish the light source!"

Kang Hu also came back to his senses, and at once he turned over the hot water boiling on the bonfire and poured it into the fire.

"Puff ......"

A cloud of steam burst from the campfire. Although the surrounding adventurers didn't know what was happening, when they saw Kang Hu's movements, they immediately followed his words and extinguished the bonfire in front of them as quickly as possible.

"What's going on?!"

Even Yin Sa, who had entered the tent early, was alarmed, and poked out half of his head from inside and asked.

"Blood Moon...... Dangerous! ”

Kang Hu stood up with a solemn expression.

However, Kang Hu was only halfway through his words when he felt the feeling of being targeted by a poisonous snake on his back. After years of wandering on the edge of life and death, he immediately realized the danger. He lunged forward, and by the way, he overturned Qin Shi to the ground with one hand.

Qin Shi rolled on the ground. At the moment when Kang Hu pushed him away, he also suddenly felt a tingle in his scalp, as if he had been coveted by a fierce beast when he was scavenging in the wasteland in the past. Before he knew what was happening, the body of a team member in front of Kang Hu suddenly exploded, and the flesh and blood were scattered all over the ground, and the blood was everywhere.

"Burst ......"

There was a faint sound in the distance.

"Enemy attack!"

Kang Hu saw the team members who were blown off half of their bodies, their faces were exposed, and he roared loudly: "It's the Force Heavy Crossbow, pay attention to concealment!" Organize a fire counterattack! ”

When the Force crossbow sounded, the camp was thrown into chaos.

The power of the Force Heavy Crossbow is not uncommon among all Force weapons, and it is the standard weapon in the galactic nation's armies.

And it appeared here, but it was the most powerful. The Force Heavy Crossbow is capable of killing warriors below Level 5 Force, inflicting heavy damage on the elite of the Army at levels 5 and 6, and even officers at level 7 can also be severely injured with the cooperation of the Heavy Crossbow.

The Force Heavy Crossbow can barely be driven with only three levels of Force power, making it ideal for fighting in places like the Ancient Land of Egypt.

Under the suppression of the Force unique to the ancient continent, this low-equipped but high-energy weapon is the most popular. And it is precisely because of this that the galaxy country forbade the flow of the Force heavy crossbow into the ancient continent world.

But such a ban is simply not effectively enforced. Because many forces in the ancient continent will convert part of the purchase price into Force heavy crossbows when they sell goods of interest to the galaxy countries, they will be willing to trade them.

The vast majority of the merchants who traded with the indigenous forces of the ancient continent were smugglers, and they did not have the consciousness of abiding by the law at all.

Therefore, when they encountered the attack of the Force Heavy Crossbow, Kang Hu couldn't determine for a while whether it was the other adventurers in the galaxy world who attacked them, or the indigenous forces of this world.

Qin Shi lay on the ground motionless. The body of the team member who had been killed by the crossbow arrow was half in front of him.

At this time, Qin Shi didn't have much fear, he just felt a little disgusting. Other than that, he felt more bad in his heart.

Yin Sa's expedition team seems to be quite methodical, but except for Yin Sa and Kang Hu, the others are obviously inexperienced.

The Sentinel is the most hateful, the Force Heavy Crossbow has a range of only three hundred meters, a distance that the Sentinel does not even know about before the enemy attacks.

And after the enemy attack began, the reaction of the team members was really amateurish, and some people even jumped up and fled in all directions, looking like a rabble. Fortunately, the opponent's Force heavy crossbow did not have many people, and although they kept firing, they didn't shoot many people.

Qin Shi patted his head vigorously. I feel like I should do something.

Although he didn't have any Force at all, in Qingning Town, the best hunter was Uncle Martin in Qin Shi's mouth, and the second strongest hunter was Qin Shi.

Qin Shi's hunting skills were also learned from Old Martin. Being able to wander the wasteland for many years, Qin Shi did not fail to meet people who were stronger and stronger than him and had bad intentions, but these people often offended him and eventually turned into a pile of dry bones in the wasteland.

"Okay......"

After making his decision, Qin Shi took a deep breath and kicked open the clothes that Kang Hu had given him, and the tattered cloak on his body was also untied by him. There was only one layer of shirt on his body that appeared to be made of burlap. The shirt didn't cover his whole body, but from his arms to the beginning, there were strips of cloth wrapped in a layer of dirty ash.

Qin Shi took off his shirt and pants, but his body was not exposed, his whole body was wrapped in dirty gray strips of cloth, which looked somewhat similar to the mummies excavated in some ancient ruins.

Qin Shi quickly dismantled the strip of cloth wrapped around his arm. A strip of dirty cloth of nearly two meters appeared in his hand. He wrapped strips of cloth around his neck in circles until he covered his entire head, leaving only a slit in his eyes.

Qin Shi's movements were very fast. From this, it can be seen that he not only does this often, but also has targeted training in this area.

At this time, under the command of Kang Hu and the warning of the corpses of his companions, the members of the camp also calmed down, picked up weapons and began to counterattack.

Force heavy crossbows, also available in the camp. It's just that when the defense was first deployed, only the beasts in the wasteland were considered.

The beast did not appear, but an unknown group of enemies came. One of the team members pounced on the Force Heavy Bolt, quickly adjusted their position, and began to counterattack. Although the bolts did not hit the enemy, the power of the explosion of the bolts made the raiders realize that the camp was not loose in its defenses, and it was not easy to gnaw.

Qin Shi lay on his stomach and carefully observed his surroundings. Yin Sa didn't know where to hide at the moment the gun rang out. This woman is not only mysterious along the way, but her performance at this time is even more surprising. As soon as the gunshots rang out, Kennan Sr. lay on the ground and pretended to be dead, motionless.

Kang Hu had already gotten up from the ground, hiding on a boulder, holding a Force gun in his hand, and was slowly pouring Force into the gun.

Qin Shi had a wry smile on his face. He hadn't used a Force firearm, but Uncle Martin did. The hideous shape of the Force firearm, all the parts on it that emit the brilliance of the Force, Uncle Martin disposed of with dark paint, not only Uncle Martin, but all hunters did this. Only in this way can you completely blend into the darkness and not be discovered by enemies or beasts in the darkness.

"He's also a guy with a low eye......"

Qin Shi secretly commented on Kang Hu in his heart, he didn't have much hope for the adventurers in the camp. He looked up at the side of Qingluan Mountain, the blood moon had already moved away from the horizon, and on the quiet hill, crimson brilliance began to shroud the earth.
