Volume 4 Plateau Funeral Song Chapter 70 Lifeless City
Beamon has settled in Durontal since his defeat in the "Tennessee Air War" with the humans.
The Godot Wilderness is huge, stretching from the Baiyue Forest in the south, to the Colorado Plateau in the north, to the Sunset Swamp and the 100,000 Mountains in the west, and to the Aegean Sea, the "eye of the continent" in the east.
It's just that this land with many neighbors is very unfortunate, and in the north of the Baiyue Forest lies the highest mountain range in the entire continent, the Icecrown Mountains, which blocks the trade winds from the north, and the abundant rain also stops at moistening this vast forest, which makes the elders of the shepherds happy, but it creates a miserable life for the natives of the wasteland.
To the southwest is the 100,000 mountains, which carry clouds of rain through the bumps of this undulating journey, and have long since leaked out of their water storage, and there is very little water that can be transported to the wasteland.
Although it is a flat land to the west, the rain from afar has created a wide swamp of sunsets, a land full of floating soil and stagnant water, which is not suitable for people to survive at all.
Although the eastern part is a huge inland sea, the Creator seems to have played a huge joke on this land, and the Icecrown Mountains and the Colorado Plateau extend one to the north and the other to the south, forming two large screens, once again stopping the rain. Fortunately, there is a gap in the barrier, and this is the famous "Thunder Bluff", through which the defeated Beamon was evacuated from the fertile Pampas savannah to this desolate land. This natural hazard is also the last place where Beamon stopped the human footsteps.
At the same time, it is also the only place where rainwater can be brought from the Aegean Sea, paving the northern part of the moor with greenery.
Therefore, the Godot Wasteland was divided into two parts, the north and the south, and since Beamon settled here, the natives of the wasteland were driven to the south, and Beamon, who had left his homeland, settled in the north. Since then, the Gordo Heath has referred to the southern heath, and the northern part has become Durontar, where Beamon founded a new kingdom.
The group of wanderers slowly returned, and after approaching the Takijiang River, Huo Jiasi was timid.
Little Goron, who had a skin color like earth, walked slowly in front, looking very unaccustomed to losing his commander, and turned his head to look at the head walking next to the fat man in three steps. Goblin Fitz is frowning as he explains his genius idea of how to arm little Goron into a mobile fortress that roams the Godot wastelands.
Fiz is the only goblin in the wasteland who knows how to be mechanical!
Ouyang was also quite surprised by the structure of this goblin, the device that the green skin added to Xiao Golon's back could actually be controlled through that simple chair, and the two tubes made of unknown plants tied to Xiao Golon's arm could use the inertia of his punch to send out different ammunition, "mud bomb", "silt bomb" and "stinky water bomb", the goblin with limited conditions can only make these three things, plus the slingshot in his hand, it can be regarded as giving Xiao Goron a lot of assistance when fighting.
If there was metal, I would be able to recreate the Goron Dragon Slayer!The goblin boole blows into the sky.
Slay the dragon?A few fireballs will scare you out!Want to fight the dragon's breath?Ouyang was disdainful of the goblin's words, but his idea still intrigued him. If this set of things is replaced with metal, it will be added to the King Kong Storm Ape...... It's a little exciting to think about!
Knowing that the kind of snake venom that could paralyze him was very rare, Ouyang asked the goblin why he didn't use something more powerful to arm little Goron, similar to animal excrement or something.
Goblins clasp their noses and are very disdainful of this statement, no goblin will disgust themselves first in order to disgust others!
In that case, why don't you take a shower before you run out and scare people!
The goblin, now clean, twitched the corners of his mouth in pain, arguing: taking a bath is the most disgusting thing for goblins!
The wild wildebeest is very capable of running, and after the conversation brought by "Mr. Heavy Fist" diluted the fatigue of the journey, the group finally arrived in the southernmost city of Bimon, Witherton.
"Witherton is the only city in the southern part of the kingdom of Beamon that crosses the Takijiang River to the south, and is guarded by the Hausma and Bil Bear tribes. The Howes are good at running and archery, the archers of the House are the main light cavalry of the Beamon Kingdom, and the Bills are good at hand-to-hand combat, and they are excellent candidates for resisting ogres, as you have seen in our battle against ogres. In addition, the combat ability of the House and Bill clans in the jungle is the best among Beamon, and the purpose of sitting in Vissetton is to guard against the demonic beasts and natives in the Baiyue Forest, so we will establish a larch camp on the edge of the Baiyue Forest, and similar camps are located along the Godot Wasteland. Together with a few other cities, it can be said that the borders of the two lands of Durotan and Godot on the north and south sides of the Takijiang River are full of camps. The Southern Temple, one of the five temples of Beamon Beamon, is located in Witherton, and your trial should take place at the Southern Temple. Lord Vienna's temple is the Temple of Pompeii, and I should have sent you to the capital of Pompeii, but unfortunately I still have a position. But as Lord Vienna's apprentice, Hogarth will be willful for once, and by the way, I will accompany you through the trial. I think the Southern Temple's arrangement should be for you to kill a few ogres, which is not a difficult task for us, is it? After the trial, you can go to Pompeii and meet with Lord Vienna. ”
The sergeant major, who was familiar with the Beamon system, took the trouble to introduce the two young men to Beamon's condition, for fear that if he did not introduce anything, the two children would encounter difficulties.
There are no mountains in the Gordo moor, and there are no majestic walls in Witherton, and the city is defended by thick log stakes interspersed with lush banyan trees. From a distance, Witherton looked more like a ranch than a main city.
"There are no veins in the Godot Wasteland, and in the early days of the city, I tried to collect stones from the Takijiang River to build it, but it was very unrealistic, and the stones collected were not enough to build a temple, and a few huge stones that were brought back with great difficulty were made into statues and placed at the door of the temple, and you will see those gods. These logs were all snatched from the mouths of the demonic beasts from the Baiyue Forest, and they didn't know what the demonic beasts were crazy about, attacking the lumberjacks one by one. And those old banyan trees are also hard to plant. The dirt of Godot Heath is nothing to grow except 'barren'! You can see that there are no trees along the way except bread trees. When planting banyan trees, someone proposed composting, and robbers were used to compost them, and these banyan trees were fed. Later, the custom was handed down, and on the day when every Bimon warrior became a true warrior, he had to go out and hunt a robber, use the swan feathers dipped in blood as his medal, and then drag the body back and bury it under the roots of the tree as fertilizer. I once buried an ogre under each of the three banyan trees, isn't it?"
Speaking of the bravery of the year, Kulun's black face glowed red, like an old jujube, and pointed to the three medals pinned to the hat, the old blue swan feather represents the hunting of an ogre alone, the yellow tooth next to it belongs to the third-order demonic beast wasteland scavenging wolf, and the last bundle of fresh black hair hanging under the wolf's tooth comes from the fourth-order demonic beast berserk leopard, indicating that this middle-aged warrior has been able to deal with the fourth-order demonic beast alone.
The Beamon warriors revered the powerful bare-chested battle, but they did not exclude the blessings of sacrifice and the use of stratagem in battle.
After all, after the age of boasting about his exploits, Cullen proved his reliability, and then went back to the city of Wetherton, and to the old banyan trees. More than his personal exploits, the veteran warrior was more proud of Beamon who had built such a city in the wasteland.
"If you dig through the dirt, you will find that there are thousands of bones buried under each tree, and I wonder if there is a heavier death in them, and no robbers have invaded Visseton for so many years. On the contrary, every autumn, when the banyan fruit turns black, many birds come to feed, which is a favorite of the residents of Wetherton. ”
Approaching the city of Witherton, the master of the city gates, the house and the strong Bill soldiers, with the momentum of standing alone in the wasteland, and those old banyan trees reflect each other, a picture of the majestic and majestic city of people!
Walking into Withlton City, the city put Beamon's truest side in front of Ouyang nakedly, and insisted that Ouyang describe what Beamon felt to him after entering the door, there was only one word - poor!
The poor one is called the end of the mountains and rivers!
Everywhere in the streets, you can see tall Boer minotaurs in old and simple clothes carrying a large bag of grain, and strong Beer bear people carrying a large bag of fur, hurrying by, busy with life, empty of strength, but not even a camel beast.
In contrast to these strong Beamons were the diminutive Doug kobolds and the Trench Rainbow hedgehogs, their ragged clothes, their hands tucked into their pockets, their thin bodies even more depressed in the bleak autumn wind.
A few Boer snail men with heavy snail shells on their backs huddled in the corner, trembling and begging for passers-by with a broken bowl.
"Is this the current situation of Beamon?" said Ouyang to the little ferret Huo Jiasi, and there was no sarcasm in her words.
Beamon, who once blocked the torrent of the Sea Clan, and Beamon, who was in the world of martial arts, even beggars appeared after being defeated by humans and retreating to the wasteland!
Huo Jiasi listened to Mirien's words, looked at the old beggars, and said for a long time: "This is also a matter of no choice, the living conditions in the wasteland are too difficult, the most powerful Beamon warriors had to lay down their weapons and pick up hoes to open up the wasteland, but the barren wasteland can only barely feed them, these vassal races that used to rely on the protection of powerful races, are not capable of facing this cruel condition." ”
The tone was full of helplessness.
Cullen, who is a Beamon warrior, also spoke: " This is also the helplessness of the kingdom, Beamon lives in this empty wasteland, on the surface it seems peaceful, but why not fight on all sides, the humans in the east, the monsters and forest natives in the south, the druids and swamp giants in the west, and the Viku people in the north, the bandits in the southern wasteland can't sweep away at all, just suppressing these places will use most of the empire's troops, even if Beamon's fighting race is a soldier, but draw troops to suppress the enemies on all sides, how many people are still engaged in production? Not to mention that the premise is to raise troops. As for those vassal races, in the words of Lord Veena, they are just spoiled and will not be self-reliant at all!"
"Suffering is all the dirt that lacks the courage to go through the hard years!"
Ouyang summed it up with emotion. He asked for a few copper coins from Cullen and distributed them to the beggars' bowls, but the beggars were gratefully holding his shoes, shouting "Thank you, sir" and the like, and kissing them incessantly at a pair of leather shoes.
Ouyang was stunned by the behavior of these people, and wanted to withdraw his shoes in embarrassment, but was hugged more tightly by these beggars who arched their gray snail shells.
Seeing the idiot scrambled, bursts of laughter erupted around the street.
One person went over the laughter, walked straight up to Huo Jiasi, took her white wattle and kissed it, and said slowly: "Beautiful Miss Mink, why waste your precious kindness and mercy on these wretches? I believe that no strong Beamon warrior who receives Miss Mink's mercy will face a powerful enemy instead of hugging a stinking shoe!"
This person, with flowing blonde hair, a full forehead with a faint chalk of the word "Wang", and a garlic nose underneath is making a contemptuous sneer.
