Chapter 40: The Race

The makeshift camp was set up along the coast for a long distance, with the ocean on one side and a kilometre away on the other, surrounded by wooden fences. And now, on the side close to the dense forest, the sound of killing shook the sky, obviously the Terran is fighting to the death with the attacking beast tide, from the distant scene is still calm and safe, it is obvious that the combat strength of the Terran side is acceptable, and the battle line has not collapsed.

Although the battle line in the distance can still be maintained, the discipline in the nearby camp has collapsed in advance; unlike the methodical resistance in the distance, there are many people fleeing like flies in the distance, and there is a chaotic scene of soldiers and horses; in the chaos, some people have fled into the water and are swimming towards the sea; some are standing in a daze, looking to the side of the battlefield; and some are dazed and rushing towards the other side of the battle formation.

However, the most panicked group of people are mostly mushrooms. In comparison, the humans in the camp behaved a little better, and were slightly more disciplined than the mushrooms, but unfortunately, most of the humans were still flustered. After all, there are not many female warriors left in the camp to protect the safety, and most of the remaining are men who are engaged in auxiliary work like the mushroom tribe. These men, young and old, were of the same courage as the mushrooms, except that the shouts were a little quieter, and they were also running away, and the ranks were a little neater, and in a whole they were still a mess, with discarded baggage, pots and pans, clothes and money scattered all over the beach.

An Xiaoqi felt the sound of the beast roaring closer and closer and the crowd fleeing beside him, several thoughts flashed in his heart, but he was not surprised and rejoiced, he hammered his thigh, and said secretly: God help me! Right now, in order to cultivate immortals, I am worried about how to stay in the mushroom continent, this is the opportunity, as long as I find an opportunity to mix out of the camp and continue to rely on this continent, I can get enough essence, improve my qualifications and start cultivating immortals, and take a big step forward.

Standing still and listening for a moment, the sand shook like a sieve of beans under his feet, and it was clear that something big was about to rush out of the dense forest. Fortunately, the sound of killing was mainly concentrated on the east side, and there was not much noise on the west side, thinking that the beast tide was sweeping from east to west. An Xiaoqi's face was gloomy, and he had to save his life first if he cultivated anything in the secret way, so he didn't dare to slack off and fled for his life along the west side of the beach.

An Xiaoqi, who didn't know about the 'beast tide', had to follow his own reason and instinct, and he didn't have much confidence in his choice, but fortunately, there were still many people who thought like him, and the flow of people who fled towards the beach to the west gathered together, becoming a torrent, which gave him more confidence, but so many people were together, but they were one step away from escaping from the camp.

Running in the crowd, An Xiaoqi still has time to look around. Looking around, there are all a group of boys running away, including mushroom tribes and humans, seeing a lot, An Xiaoqi also found some rules, such as whether humans or mushroom tribes, everyone is a uniform wide robe, but the color is different, for example, the green mushroom clan wears a green robe, similar to the ancestor of the green robe; the purple mushroom clan is wearing a dark purple robe, which is dazzling; and the human boy is wearing black and white, like a chess piece.

In addition, the front and back of the robe have their own patterns, which are quite complicated and difficult to repeat, but they are roughly divided into two categories, one with a small lark tattooed on the cloak, and the other with a silver leaf grass pattern. Obviously, these motifs represent the families to which they belong – those with a lark tattooed on their head belong to the black lark family, and those with silver blades tattooed on them all belong to the silverleaf grass family. That is to say, this camp is full of people from these two families.

An Xiaoqi snorted secretly, this is convenient, as soon as the cloak is pulled down, it is clear who it belongs to, and it is also convenient to manage, while thinking, he couldn't help touching the top of his head with his hand, and a small bird was tattooed on the center of his eyebrows.

was running with the crowd, looking forward to a good day back to the forest, but a hand was suddenly stretched out diagonally, a young man of the green mushroom clan in a green robe gently pulled his hand, and in the noisy environment, a somewhat frightened and curious voice was clear in his ears: "Brother, aren't you running like this?"

What does it mean? An Xiaoqi looked at him puzzled, and suddenly realized that the folk customs of the mushroom tribe were conservative, and the average boy did not show his face, so in order not to be exposed, he had to pull the cloak and run with his head covered;

It's a shame that you are still looking for a purple mushroom boy to change his clothes, and he simply took off his pants and farted! An Xiaoqi, An Xiaoqi, are you stupid, are you stupid?—— he couldn't help but scold himself in his heart.

Without saying a word, he immediately followed the customs, grabbed a few handfuls randomly, and also exposed his head and face, looking short, the green mushroom boy glanced at him while running, obviously stunned, and said secretly in his heart: This young man is obviously a human being, why is he wearing purple mushroom costumes? An Xiaoqi saw his doubts, smiled, did not explain, and continued to run on the soft and delicate sand.

It was easy for the young man of the Green Mushroom Clan to follow the large army without falling behind, and he didn't ask An Xiaoqi about wearing the wrong clothes, but because of An Xiaoqi's human identity, he had other thoughts and asked: "Since you are a human being, do you know when the reinforcements will come?"

Reinforcements?And reinforcements?What do you mean?, is there anything about me?I'm just running a beach marathon with you, he doesn't speak; I pass him, but the buddy on the other side of him is panting: "Hold on....as long as you escape this wave, you won't be able to reach the night....A few adults will come back to help, and Huhu ..... can easily extinguish this beast tide." ”

An Xiaoqi tilted his head back to look at this side, a slightly chubby human boy sweating profusely and with wet hair on his forehead was running hard. He staggered, seeing that he couldn't keep up, An Xiaoqi sighed and reached out to help, but his eyes were full of doubts, and he didn't understand what he was talking about.

The chubby boy continued to run away with the help of An Xiaoqi, and looked at him gratefully, but he misunderstood An Xiaoqi's eyes and explained: "In recent days... The harbor has been destroyed by the beast tide, the boat is gone, everyone has to live in a makeshift camp, in order to welcome relatives....The adults have contacted the ship, why don't you know?"

No wonder such a prominent family lives in such a humble camp, it turns out that the territory has been destroyed by the beast tide!

According to the little fat man's intermittent explanation: Recently, for some reason, there has been a beast tide in the Mushroom Continent. The Beast Tide, as the name suggests, is the rebellion of the beasts like a tide, and in game terms, it is a monster siege. These beasts, which had been scattered in groups, were suddenly united by unknown forces and attacked wildly towards the Terran gathering place, and there had been such incidents before, but it had not happened for many years, and in a hurry, the humans were caught off guard.

The Mushroom Continent nominally belongs to the jurisdiction of the Black Lark Family, but in fact they can only control some important strongholds, and in recent years, the family has gradually declined, and when the beast tide hits, they can't bear it at all, and this loss is naturally not small. As far as the chubby boy knew, the black lark had lost at least three important ports that were stockpiling a large number of supplies and ships, and it happened that one of them was a hoarding base for preparing to make peace! The Black Skylark family had no choice but to set up a temporary camp on the shore dozens of kilometers away from the original port, barely serving as a hoarding base. However, the base was there, but there were not enough ships to send the relatives and materials back to the 'main continent', so the person in charge had to go out to contact the fleet, and the result was: before this group of capable personnel contacted the ship to return to the camp, another wave of beasts struck, so there was the current scene.

On the other hand, even within the servants, there are three, six, nine, and so on. The little fat man who explained these things to An Xiaoqi was a first-class servant and a Terran boy with good roots. Unlike the alien servants, this brother was hired and was not subject to personal coercion, and was not responsible for menial work or management—the only thing to do was to serve the Terran warriors. He is a person who focuses on his job, has a good professional skills, and loves his job. Because of this, he is lacking in his body, and his physical strength is quite poor at a young age. I usually can't see it, but I can't hold it at this critical moment, if it weren't for An Xiaoqi's support, he would have slid onto the beach and been stepped on by seventeen or eighteen feet.

"Okay....good brother....thanks to you, as long as buddy can survive this wave of beasts..... I swear... Woohoo....Prosperity with brothers. Speaking of emotion, the young man held An Xiaoqi's hand and was reluctant to let go for a long time. The misty eyes were filled with tears, sparkling with the sea water on the side, and the attitude was indescribably sincere.

After running a few steps, he heard a huge roar behind him, and the sound resounded in the sky, An Xiaoqi suddenly looked back, only to see that far to the east, near the bamboo house where he lived before, a giant beast stepped out of the dense forest! The giant beast looked like a standing lizard, standing upright, full of fangs, terrifying, and the sharp bone spurs behind it were lined up one after another, twisted very much, just like a monster running out of hell!

The giant lizard was extremely large, and the tall coconut trees beside it were less than half the size of the monster. It only took a few steps, and then in the strong shaking of the ground, it stepped to the edge of a shaky wooden house, and with a slight lift of its foot, it trampled a sturdy wooden house under its feet, and the wooden house was reduced to powder in a moment! In the midst of the flying sand and sawdust, the monster roared in the sky, and a few wisps of blood flowed from between the sharp giant teeth, like a small waterfall, and in the blood splashed, some pieces of flesh of no race were combined with armor, and weapons fell down—I don't know which unlucky ghosts failed to stuff the monster's teeth, and ended up in this miserable state.

An Xiaoqi looked at the huge body in the distance, and couldn't help but think of the famous Godzilla, and secretly thought in his heart that Ultraman needs you; next to him, he saw that the eyes of the human boy were straight, and his face was pale, and suddenly he burst out of a divine power out of nowhere, and shouted: Mom!

Oh, by the way, people don't say that they will share hardship, right? An Xiaoqi was in a good state of mind but didn't have time to express his opinion, so he was pulled down by the force of the pull, threw himself into the beach, and then the crowd on his back rumbled forward, and he was instantly stepped on seventeen or eighteen feet.

I'm not thinking that it's inappropriate to shoot the first bird, so I ran without leaving any effort to leave you old, weak, sick and crippled behind. An Xiaoqi calmed down, feeling pain everywhere on his back from head to toe, especially his old waist: his waist was almost trampled into a piece of waist! With a sweet mouth, he almost vomited blood, so he swallowed it.

What beast tide, what young master, what immortal cultivation, all of them are like floating clouds at this moment. An Xiaoqi felt as if his soul had received a baptism. It was as if he had gone to the Potala Palace and washed his soul in the pure world of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and as if he had gone to the Vatican to confess his sins in front of the bishop, and he seemed to have seen the Master sitting high in the clouds, nodding and smiling at him. And in his heart after being cleansed, there were only two words left: so hungry.

Bastard, you were actually trampled on and hallucinated, I can't spare you!
