Chapter 49: Hope

When Huang Quan was pondering, a girl's voice suddenly sounded behind him: "What are you thinking?" ”

Huang Quan didn't look back, he was silent for a moment, and said, "A little thing." ”

"Don't you want to talk to me?"

"It's not that I don't want to, it's that I haven't figured it out myself."

"But I can feel that you're in pain right now."

"Pain? Do I have such a thing? ”

"Yes."

The girl's direct answer suddenly made Huang Quan not know what to say. If he really had never been in pain, how could he get drunk and spend so many days in trance and women's flesh after his mission?

But what is his pain for?

Huang Quan's heart palpitated, this memory that came up because of a simple answer from the girl was so unfamiliar, as the prince of the empire and the captain of the dragoon, when had he ever had such a weak experience?

Huang Quan's head suddenly ached, and he could no longer recall it deeply, the memory of this paragraph seemed to be taboo, as long as he touched it would make him miserable. The pain was so intense that he couldn't take it anymore, holding his head and moaning lowly.

But he wondered even more in his heart, what was in that memory that made him seal himself in this way?

"What's wrong with you?"

"No, it's fine." Huang Quan straightened up and let out a long breath. As long as you don't touch that memory, it won't hurt.

"It's okay. I, I want to ask you one thing. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Let me think about it."

Huang Quan felt that the girl's voice and tone were a little weird, and when he looked back, he saw that the girl's face was flushed, and her eyes were a little confused. He's seen too much of this, and the little guy is clearly drunk.

Huang Quan was angry and funny, and just now he said a few words to her seriously, but he didn't expect to be chatting with a little drunk cat.

He was about to send the girl to sleep, but he saw a sudden fire in her eyes, and then she stripped off her clothes one by one and stood naked in front of Huang Quan.

"You're ......"

Before Huang Quan could finish speaking, the girl threw herself into his arms, crushed him alive, and then sat down.

The light of the torches flickered, making all the murals seem to come alive.

The giants are still fighting, and the battle between the Advent and the Underworld is taking place in all corners of the universe. The superior reproductive ability of the underground race is reflected in every detail, and the same is true on the floor in the middle of the house.

At dawn, the madness is over.

Huang Quan lay on his back, the ceiling reflected in his pupils, and his brain went blank. He was tired, and the girl was even more paralyzed into a pile of mud, and fell asleep on top of him.

Huang Quan raised his head slightly, looking at the girl's falling hair and the graceful lines of her shoulders, and suddenly felt an indescribable tranquility. For the first time, he felt a sense of belonging in this strange world.

This is a feeling that was completely absent from the Age of Empires.

He stroked Haruka's long hair, didn't say anything, didn't think about anything, and just let the time slip away bit by bit.

It was dawn, the sun had finally risen, and there was a commotion in the camp.

The hunters in the settlement got up early, and they had to pack their belongings, pack as much food and necessary materials as possible, and take with them everything useful that the cannibal tribe could carry.

The piles of steel ingots in the warehouse made everyone look at them, but unfortunately there were so many steel ingots that it was impossible to move them even if the number of people in the settlement doubled.

In the end, the Great Elder only barely took a few dozen pieces, about a few hundred kilograms. Bringing a few hundred kilograms of steel ingots means bringing less food of the same weight, and the difficulty of making a choice made the Great Elder gray a lot of hair overnight.

When Huang Quan and Yao walked out of the big house, the camp was filled with the aroma of food, breakfast was ready, and a woman had already brought it to the two of them. The girl took the plate and immediately devoured it, and the night of hard fighting last night had made her hungry.

Watching the girl bury her head and eat violently, Huang Quan had a smile on his face for the first time, a smile that could not be dispersed. He ate his breakfast slowly, and when it was almost time for his scheduled departure, he finished everything.

The Great Elder waited for him to finish eating, then came over and asked, "Aren't we going to stay?" ”

"Here? Are you sure? Huang Quan asked rhetorically.

The Great Elder smiled wryly and said, "I just think this place is really good, and it is a good camp if it is renovated a little." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he was also a little embarrassed and said, "The best camp in the last twenty years." ”

The tribal camp chosen by the ogre is naturally good, and the infrastructure is very well-built. However, everyone knows that this camp can't stay for long, and the cannibals have the coordinates of the camp location and will make a comeback sooner or later.

In addition to being reluctant to take the location here, the Great Elder is also reluctant to take away the things that cannot be moved or destroyed.

Huang Quan understood the Great Elder's mood very well, and said, "When we get out of the rainforest, we don't have to hide in Tibet anymore. ”

"When we're out of the rainforest,......," the Grand Elder muttered, his face beginning to glow.

Huang Quan sighed secretly in his heart, but he couldn't bear to tell the truth to the Great Elder. Not to mention that walking out of this rainforest means leaving this planet, this galaxy, but to this star field, I am afraid that they will all face the pursuit of the Adventists, who let the Holy Radiance fail in the divine war?

The Great Elder continued to prepare for the trip, and the girl seemed to sense something, came to Huang Quan's side, and asked, "Are we hopeless?" ”

Looking at her big eyes that were as clear as water, Huang Quan suddenly had an inexplicable impulse and blurted out: "No, we still have hope!" As long as I am here, there is hope for the settlement, and there is hope for humanity! ”

"We have hope, too!" The girl added.

"We, ah, there was hope." Huang Quan smiled and held her in his arms.

The preparations for the settlement continued, and after obtaining a large amount of cannibal flesh and blood, there were finally enough sacrificial items, and a short ritual of sacrificing to the ancestors would be held today, one was to inform the ancestors of the fact that the power of the life stone was about to be exhausted, and listen to the instructions of the ancestors.

Huang Quan had no objection to this sacrifice, he was also curious to see what the ancestral souls of the Lost People could say in this situation.

Another thing is to determine the location of the shelter during the sacrifice.

Huang Quan originally hoped that after defeating the ogre tribe, he could find something like a map, and cooperate with the map of the Great Elder to confirm the surrounding situation.

But in the central big house of the cannibal, there is a mural of the epic of the god war, but I haven't found the slightest thing related to the map, which shows that in the social structure of the cannibal, this kind of knowledge is only in the hands of a few people at the top, but it's a pity that Huang Quan killed too fast and couldn't distinguish those elites.

After seeing the various facilities and arrangements in the cannibal tribe, Huang Quan already knew that the settlers were no match at all, and even if he could lead them out of the rainforest and temporarily get rid of the threat of cannibals in this area, he would not be able to find a place for so many people to live for a long time.

After discussing with the Great Elder, Huang Quan was going to set the new destination as the nearest shelter, and the Life Stone was obviously not enough to support the settlement to build a new camp, and only by going to the shelter could so many people find a glimmer of life.

However, Huang Quan did not say it explicitly, in fact, he was not optimistic about the future of the shelter, as the cannibals took over the entire rainforest, the shelter would be flooded by an army of ogres sooner or later.

The war between the unknown force and the Holy Radiance is everywhere, and the balance of power between the two sides has been extremely different, and the suspense of victory or defeat has long been gone.

In Huang Quan's opinion, the reason why the shelter has been able to hold on until now is entirely because the upper echelons of the cannibals do not want to take it down.

The ogre intends to eat the scattered settlements one by one, transform all the power of the life stones brought out by the settlements, and then take the shelter in one fell swoop.

Shenghui is very good at stealing, if it weren't for the people in the settlement who need to eat and drink, the hunters would have to hunt in the rainforest, and if the Life Stone alone was the one himself, the transformed territory didn't know how long it could exist.

Only by sheer luck can ogres find the territory of the Life Stone and purify its power.

Thinking of this, Huang Quan suddenly had a feeling that the ogres were using the Lost People to continuously consume the Holy Radiance on this planet, in order to completely purify all the Holy Radiance and cut the grass and eradicate the roots!
