Chapter 6 Embarking on the Journey
The three people who came to the lake looked at the crowd kneeling in front of them, there were men and women, old and young, many of them still wearing colors, and there were several corpses that looked like humans and beasts not far away, and they thought that there should have been a fight between the two sides before they came, and both sides were injured.
For the kneeling salute, the three of them, as teenagers in the new era, were still a little unacceptable psychologically, and under the insistence of the three of them, the crowd stood up and stood respectfully in place one by one.
Er Dongjie walked up to one of the most conspicuous women in the crowd, except for the cold face that was exposed and the flesh-colored hands, the rest of the place was as dazzling white as snowflakes.
"Can this young lady tell us what you mean by saving the Terrans?" asked Erdongjie softly with a smile that he thought was kind.
"Orcs, crusade, Terrans, salvation. Yi Yi looked at the young and handsome young man in front of him and spit out a few words.
The way the woman in white spoke made Er Dongjie think she was a stuttering woman, and he didn't care. From this woman's mouth, I can know that the so-called salvation of the human race must need to crusade against the beast race, but... With the strength of the three of them, can they save a race? Er Dongjie himself was a little skeptical.
However, judging from the task received by the fairy sister, this glass treasure python belongs to the beast class no matter how it sounds, so this task is considered to be a line with the crusade against the beasts, and it does not conflict;
Er Dongjie summoned Guan Haibo and Wang Guoqing, and learned from the conversation that the three of them seemed to have a task related to the beast race, and after some discussion, the three of them decided to take over the task of saving the human race.
"What's your name?" Erdongjie asked Er Dongjie suddenly looking back at Yi Yi, who was very interested in the woman in white. With the strength of his immature warrior, he could vaguely see that Yi Zhou was surrounded by a circle of snowflakes, which was not available to everyone present.
"Yiyi"
"Yes. Er Dongjie bowed slightly, and then said to everyone in righteous words: "It is the bounden duty and obligation of our warriors to save the Terrans, and we will do our best to defend the peace! Now, let us take up arms! Fight for the future of the Terrans!!"
Er Dongjie excitedly raised his spear and shouted loudly, Guan Haibo and Wang Guoqing naturally raised their weapons very cooperatively. Er Dongjie's very official oath unexpectedly made the guards very excited, and they all held their weapons and shouted, hoping to kill a few orcs immediately to calm the blood in their chests.
"Now, then, tell me how the war between humans and beasts is going at the moment. Er Dongjie pressed down his hand and asked to calm everyone's excited emotions.
After a noisy explanation, the three of Er Dongjie roughly understood the current situation. Er Dongjie regretted that he had just said the oath so hastily. What does it mean to be completely wiped out? So what is the task of saving the Terrans? Isn't that an SSS-level mission?
The three of them looked at each other, feeling that this task was a little tricky. But now that the words have been spoken, then they can only take one step at a time, thinking that the teaching that a spark can start a prairie fire back then, the three of them have remembered it in their hearts;
"Warrior, what are we going to do next?"
The one who spoke was a sturdy man with a cloth towel on his head, dressed in a neat gray and white short fight, and three men in the same costume stood behind him, surrounding Guan Haibo. Qibu was the leader of the butler's guard, and seeing that the three warriors seemed to be led by Erdongjie, he asked Erdongjie.
Er Dongjie also thought about it when he heard this, and in the case of not knowing the strength of the beast clan, it was obviously not wise to return the same way. However, he is not very familiar with this world, and he actually does not know what to do, and it seems unrealistic to hide in this valley.
"If you have any ideas, you can say them and see them. The three of us had just arrived, so we weren't very familiar with the place. Erdonjie told the truth.
"Lord Warrior, I suggest going to Xingyao Continent. One of them said.
"Xing Yaozhou, tell me your reasons. Er Dongjie touched the stubble on his chin thoughtfully.
"Xingyao Continent is a place where there are three things..." The man seemed to want to say something, but he didn't know how to say it because he wasn't familiar enough with the Xingyao Continent in the middle of the continent.
"Warrior-sama... I also think it's good to go to Xingyao Island. There are many races living there, and there is also the number one academy in the Valan Continent, Star Glory Academy. If we can get their help, the process of our Terran's re-emergence will be smoother. ”
Er Dongjie looked at the person who spoke, and it was a timid little girl who was standing next to Yi Yi. She blushed as more people were watching her, and shrank behind Yi Yi.
"What's your name?" Erdonjie asked
"I... My name is Izzo..." Izzo's scared appearance made Erdongjie feel more intimate.
"Little Izo, you know a lot. ”
"I... I like it better... I like to read..." Izzo's glutinous voice and timid expression will always make people feel infinitely protective.
"Well, I'll ask you if we don't know anything in the future!" Erdongjie touched Izzo's little head lovingly, this girl who looked like the leader's sister reminded him of his own sister.
"Okay, in that case, let's go to Xingyao Continent!"
After consulting Wang Guan and the others, Er Dongjie announced the next destination to everyone.
In the following conversation, the three of them also had a general understanding of a regional distribution in the Valan Continent. First of all, the Valley of the Gods, where everyone is currently located, is almost located on the southeast border of the continent, and beyond that is the desolate land that no one has ever visited; the base camp of the beast clan is in their north, the west is the demon race, and their northwest is the Xingyao Continent in the center of the continent, and the northwest of the Xingyao Continent is the other three human principalities.
In view of the current situation, they are in the area occupied by the beast clan, after the beast clan destroyed the Xiao family, the north and south were connected, accounting for almost half of the territory of the continent, so if they want to go to Xingyao Continent, it is actually equivalent to passing through the occupation area of the beast clan, which may be more difficult than imagined.
"Let's go southeast. ”
After analyzing it, Er Dongjie and the three decided to detour from the southeast, so as to avoid a head-on collision with the regular orc army. With their current manpower, none of the three of them felt that they could get anything cheap by taking the straight road, or that none of them had the confidence to do so.
"Lord Warrior, the southeast of the Valley of the Guardians is a desolate place, and no one knows what dangers there are. ”
Although it is the legendary warrior leader, but in the face of the unknown, even the dead soldiers like them have concerns, after all, it doesn't matter if they die, if something happens to the warriors, then they really have no hope of rising, one of the guards said worriedly.
"Well, that's why we have to detour from the southeast, which is not only unexpected by the orcs, but also can be used to escape the pursuit of the enemy. Erdonjie felt that he was a good strategist who could come up with this "perfect" strategy.
Under Er Dongjie's "rational" analysis, the guards naturally didn't say anything more, and their next task was to follow the warriors, protect the warriors, and shed their blood for the revitalization of the human race.
With the departure of Erdongjie and his party, the Valley of the Guardians gradually calmed down, and the animals in the forest gradually increased, and a few wolf-like animals even ran not far from the lake, gnawing on the corpses of the orcs on the ground. Nothing seemed to have changed, except for the extra tombstones by the lake.
On this day, the deer that had been drinking by the lake suddenly scattered and fled. The four-vertebral body that had been floating on the island for several days without movement was shining brightly, and a strong light flashed, and three figures fell out of the four-vertebral body, two of which were skeletons, and the other was a naked woman.
"Wow~"
The lake was churning, the waves were splashing, and a huge head broke out of the water under the surface of the lake, a serpentine monster with a pair of red horns, covered with dark scales, red eyes, and white mist in its mouth, and suddenly shot out its long scarlet tongue, which swept the two skeletons on the platform directly into its abdomen, and then approached the only remaining woman and sniffed, hesitated, and slowly sank to the bottom of the water.
After a long time, the valley was calm again...
Somewhere southeast of the Valley of the Gods
"Zozo, do you know this desolate place?" asked Erdongjie as he looked at Zoe who was holding his palm.
After a few days of trekking, Erdongjie unexpectedly found that Izzo looked timid on the outside, but he had a strong strength that did not match his appearance, and he was good at using a pair of hidden blades, killing a lot of monsters along the way;
And after a few days, Izzo also found that this warrior who loved him a lot, did not have the same frame as the adults he protected before, and he seemed to have a natural charm that made people approachable. So Izuo, who was already clingy, gradually stuck to Er Dongjie, and Er Dongjie completely spoiled her as a sister.
"Well, I know. It is recorded in the book that the southeast part of the Valley of the Gods is called the Land of Exile, but what was exiled is not said, because it has always been called a forbidden place. The Exiled Lands are best known for the Cursed City near the Valley of the Gods, and it is said that there used to be a cursed clan living there, and they were very disgusted with humans and would hunt down and kill when they saw it, so that area was rarely set foot in. The Land of Exile is surrounded by the sea on three sides, and the only way we can go is to go southeast first, then turn around and go west, and finally pass through the territory of the demons and enter the Star Continent. ”
After Izzo let go, he spoke much more clearly.
From Izzo's words, everyone could tell that the place was dangerous, and from what they had observed along the way, it didn't look like there was any sign of human activity. However, the more strange the place, the more likely it is to complete the task accepted by the trio.
"Zuozuo, have you ever heard of the Glass Python?" asked Er Dongjie tentatively.
Hearing this, Izzo looked at Erdongjie and shook his head blankly, indicating that he didn't know.
"What about the three Nakshatras?"
Izzo shook his head again
"What about the Elven Royals?" Erdonjie asked unrelentingly.
"I do know that, but there doesn't seem to be a way into that place. Izzo breathed a sigh of relief, finally having a term she knew.
