Chapter 001: Accidental Discovery

As the winter sun lazily shone on the thick snow, Kenny sat on a rock in a stream, holding a dagger and cutting the flesh from the stick bone and stuffing it into his mouth. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

His beard hadn't been trimmed for a long time, the black thing hung on his chin like rotten weed, his silver armor was covered in blood, and he had forgotten to pay attention to his demeanor after days of marching, and if there was an unknown person at this moment, he would not be able to tell that this guy who had swallowed the cow was the leader of the Union army, of course, the leader who had been defeated and absconded.

It has been a week since they crossed the Beicheng Bridge, and they have walked cautiously when they first set foot in the New World, for fear of being attacked by a new and strange creature that suddenly appeared one day, but fortunately, with the blessing of the Namu God, this road is a plain, and the vision is very good both day and night, except for the snow that brings some trouble to their marching speed, they have not encountered any other dangers for the time being.

The dry food they carried had long since been exhausted, but fortunately the New World was not full of hibernation animals, and every day there were soldiers on duty who went out to hunt, relying on the few meats to provide calories, and the group was still alive and well, at least no one had starved to death so far.

When they first entered the New World, they followed a tributary of the Yingshui River Valley, the length of the days and the short nights made Kenny only look at the stars in the sky to discern his position, and in order to ensure that everyone had enough water, the group without a destination simply followed the tributary all the way, hoping to find a suitable place to settle down.

Kenny swallowed the last piece of meat on the stick bone, such a good wild boar meat would be fried on the outside and tender on the inside if it was handed over to the chef in the palace, and the first dish should be foie gras, and then some tartar sauce after eating the pork chops, but now this situation can fill the stomach, which is already very good.

After lunch, Kenny looked up at the mountains in the distance, at the foot of which was a large wooded area, where the tributaries cut off, wood, stone, water sources, and a natural barrier at the back, which might be a good place to base himself.

The horses' hooves made a dull noise against the thick snow, and Lawrence returned from a distance with a group of men on horseback.

"Lord, I just went out hunting with my soldiers and found a strange place in the west, you better check it out!" Lawrence dismounted beside Kenny.

"What's weird?" Kenny said, handing Lawrence a roasted hind leg of a stag.

"It was difficult to find prey in such thick snow, and finally found a rabbit, and the three soldiers chased the rabbit to a place in the west, and I followed them, and suddenly one of the soldiers in front fell off his horse, and the horse's leg seemed to have tripped over something, and we dismounted and pushed away the snow on the ground, and found that there were all corpses underneath, and those corpses were a little strange. Lawrence took the hind leg meat and nibbled on it.

"Don't tell me there's the corpse of a Confederate soldier down there. ”。

"That's not it, if it was the corpse of the Alliance Army, I wouldn't have this expression, but I'd rather only see the corpses of humans, the snow is too deep, we only pushed away a little bit, and I can barely see a lot of alien corpses lying on the ground, those guys are more terrifying than halflings, the first thing I saw was a blue-skinned human, but they were bigger than us, and their muscles were more developed than normal humans, I thought they were wearing bone armor, and when I walked in, those bone armor grew from their bodies at all!”

"Lawrence, who did you learn your ability to make up stories, aren't Namu God believers not lying?"

"I know you won't believe me, so I just said you'd better check it out. Oh yes, that's not the weirdest thing, what's even stranger is that there are also the corpses of our humans in there, although they are not soldiers of the Union Army, but I can see very clearly that there are indeed humans in the corpses, because of the snow, I don't know exactly how many corpses there are, but what is certain is that there was definitely a fierce battle there, and it was not that long ago. ”

"Sounds interesting, let's go, take me to see it!"

Kenny put his hydration bag back in his saddle, picked up his saber and mounted his horse, following Lawrence and the soldiers to the west.

They came to the strange place that Lawrence said, and from a distance it looked like there was a small black hole in the thick snow, and if I guessed correctly, it should be the place where Lawrence pushed away the snow.

In order to avoid the previous horse falling incident, the group dismounted from a distance and walked to the place of the incident, the damn mainland snow is thicker than the south side of the Beicheng Bridge, and the snow is not above the knees for every step, if it weren't for the warm clothes they brought before they set off, it is estimated that they were not starved to death after walking so far, but were frozen to death in this ice and snow.

Kenny walked to the small hole that the soldiers had opened, he carefully put his head towards the mouth of the snowy cave, the action seemed to be a group of vampire bats that would emerge from it at any time, the cave was indeed as Lawrence said, full of alien and human corpses, Kenny looked up at the snow in front of him, the snow in front of him was not a wisp of flat ground, but a crater and rugged, the exact size of the area is impossible to estimate, Lawrence was right, there was indeed a fierce battle here, and judging from the blood stains on the corpses, the time was not long.

"It seems that the north is not deserted, but has been fighting for many years, and this world is really not peaceful anywhere. Kenny's words sounded like a complaint, but there was a hint of gratification in his words, everyone had been afraid that the Yingshui River would be barren before he came, but it wasn't what they thought.

"Lord, let's go east along the previous river, I always feel that something will happen here, we don't have many troops to bring out, in case we get involved in unnecessary conflicts again, it will really be a hell of a thing. ”

"Well, let's go, I don't want to fight this group of guys with bone helmet armor, their slate axes are as sharp as steel blades, and the weapons of these aliens are no worse than humans. Kenny turned and got on his horse, and the group walked slowly towards the place they had come.

Back to where they had rested, Kenny and Lawrence led the remnants of the army down the stream to the east, they were getting closer and closer to the mountains not far away, and now they urgently needed a place to settle down, and many soldiers were frostbitten from camping in the snow for several days, and if they encountered a group of aliens attacking at this time, it was estimated that they would have to escape.

A group of people walked slowly through the snow like turtles, and Lawrence on the horse kept looking back to see if there was an alien chasing after him, although he had not seen a living alien.

"Look, Lord! There's a small village on the other side of the stream, it looks like our human village, oh my God! there really are humans up there!" Lawrence shouted at Kenny excitedly on his horse.
