Chapter 326: Greer's Stone
"Wandering ninja faithful, family brothers. Well, this pair of heads is, I'll make sure again, one has red spots on the face, the other has half an ear, well, the task is complete. The bandits of Mt. Hirohashi? I'm done with this, tick, done! ”
Ino sat alone under the tree, holding Sister Hong's mission records and looking at them one by one.
I have to say that men also affect the speed of doing tasks, Sister Hong took on a lot of tasks before marriage, but her time was almost all spent on Asma, and there were too many scattered tasks that she had accumulated!
Ino's side is like delivering takeaways, first plan the route, try to ensure that you can do seven or eight tasks in one trip, and then run over for a while.
She flipped through a thick book-like to-do list as she held the map and constantly adjusted and planned new routes.
Looking at it, she was stunned for a moment.
"Why did you take on a D-class mission? This eldest sister is really. Alas. ”
Now that it's accepted, the D-class mission has to be done as well.
Investigating, perceiving, and tracking, she soon found the ferret mentioned in the task, and spent a day finding the task client to hand in the task.
The task of finding the ferret was commissioned by an old rosacea, dressed in rags, and he and his people drove a wagon full of salutes and supplies, a touch of the gypsies of a past life, who had been wandering around the world.
Now that the clouds of war were about to descend on the Fire Nation, they prepared to migrate to the southern kingdom for refuge.
Ino was quite curious about the so-called southern country, and after handing in the task, she casually asked two more questions, and the old man's words surprised her greatly.
"Uncle, are you talking about the southern country in the south of the fire country?"
The old man drank a little too much, and laughed proudly: "Hahahaha-this Miss Ninja, this world is not only the Land of Fire, nor is there only one East China Sea, at the southernmost tip of the Land of Fire, across the sea area now called the South China Sea, sailing for almost thirty days, you can see another continent, which used to be our home." ”
Ino was really taken aback: "You're from another continent?" ”
In her opinion, the country of fire, the country of earth, and the country of thunder are all countries on a continent, and the south is the endless sea, which is the continental plate that was broken by the big barrel wood Kaguya and the six immortals, and there should be nothing in the south, and now there is still land over there?
Speaking of these past events, the old man felt that his ancestors were very angry, and his beard shook and trembled: "Our ancestors once had a splendid civilization, at that time, the ancestors cut down the jungle, dug up the mountain roads, filled the rivers, the natural world surrendered in front of us, and the resources of an entire continent belonged to human beings.
At that time, the civilization of the ancestors was unimaginable now. Wells that never dry up, livestock that grow overnight, and food that can never be eaten sound incredible, right? It's the incredible energy, hiccup, the incredible Grell Stone! ”
The old man soon fell asleep, Ino was quite interested in what he said about the southern country and the stone of Greel, energy is the most important thing in any world, and the wars caused by energy have almost run through the history of human civilization, or all intelligent races.
If that ore is really as the old man said, it has an abundance of incomparable energy, it is definitely priceless, not to mention what he is talking about? Is it a mine? Is this the stuff all the underground in the southern continent?
Wanting to inquire more closely, she stayed in this group of migratory travelers for the time being.
The next day, when Ino asked again, the old man began to pretend to be confused, what stone is Gray? What kind of stone.
Just as Ino was about to use some unspeakable means, the rear of the convoy was attacked.
The smoke and dust of the explosion could be seen from a distance of 100 meters, and men and women in tattered clothes kept running forward.
Three shiny figures pursued behind, fast and powerful, and a group of civilians were powerless under the pursuit of the attackers.
Ino smiled, and she looked at the old man: "You weren't actually drunk yesterday, were you?" What kind of stone did you deliberately tell me, just to let me come and be your bodyguard today? ”
The old man's expression was bitter: "What can I do?" I can only hold on to all the hope I can. We carry heavy shackles and live a difficult life every day. ”
Ino nodded: "That's right, in fact, it's not easy for anyone to live, civilians have the difficulties of civilians, and ninjas have the danger of ninjas." ”
Seeing that he had not aroused her sympathy, the old man could only use the last resort.
He had too few cards in his hand, and there was only one card he could play.
"The Stone of Grell is a precious ore in our continent, only the royal bloodline can open the device and collect ore, you can't use it, but I can tell you the specific location of the vein."
What royal bloodline Ino doesn't believe, is your royal family also a big barrel wood clan from aliens? In this year, there is no vein that cannot rise from "opening the soil and ascending to the horri"! What royal blood, that's all nonsense.
She remembered the location that the old man had said, and said that she would go and see it in the future: "What else?" Is that all there is to it? ”
The old man pointed to three figures that were getting closer and closer: "The glorious civilization of the ancestors has collapsed, they are divided into two factions, the powerful and powerful royal family who have mastered the power of force came here two hundred years ago to multiply, and they have taken the last mined Stone of Grell and the Book of Grell, these pursuers. It should have something to do with the runaway ancient royal families, and if nothing else, most of the Book of Grell is also in their hands. ”
Ino asked, "Then who are you?" ”
"We are the remnants of the migration to this continent thirty years ago, the natural environment of the southern continent is getting worse and worse, the lack of materials, and the natural disasters are continuous, we really can't live anymore, and it is hell now."
Ino felt that he understood, it should be the kind of earth-destroying battle between Otsuki Kaguya and the Six Dao Immortals that destroyed the local environment, the royal family was the first to retreat, and the civilians carried it for more than a hundred years, and they couldn't bear it anymore, so they migrated to the northern continent.
The three figures were getting closer and closer, and their hideous faces could be seen as close as Ino could be seen.
These are three women in strange armor, they are not ninjas, and in Ino's perception, their armor has a chakra equivalent to the level of a middle ninja, which can power themselves, allowing their strength, speed, and endurance to reach an inhuman level.
The guards of the convoy, armed with spears and bows, were helpless under their onslaught.
"Is the source of power in their armor what you call the Stone of Greel?" Ino asked.
The old man couldn't see clearly, and said uncertainly, "Maybe." ”
