Chapter 391: Aliens
At the same time, a wall of fire rose around the camp, enveloping the entire camp, which Dowling had just laid out.
The noise woke everyone up, and they rushed out of their tents to see short men shivering around the campfire.
"What is this?" Li Ming exclaimed in surprise after seeing those things clearly.
Beside the campfire were a few large horse monkeys with sharp beaks, who were looking at the crowd with horrified expressions, and in their arms there was food they had just stolen.
"They may just be hungry and want to come and find something to eat." Fauber said with a smile.
"How can there be monkeys here?" Li Ming asked rhetorically.
As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned, yes, this is not a forest, it is a hilly area, if it was a jackal, tiger and leopard that stole food just now, it would be understandable, but this is a monkey living in the jungle forest.
"They should be tamed." Li Ziqiang stepped forward and said, his gaze constantly scanning the surroundings.
"Let's take the food and go......" Long Xiaonian said with a wave of his hand.
Hearing this, the horse monkeys hurriedly ran away with the stolen food as if they could understand.
Dowling extinguished the red lotus fire in the fire ring and let them go.
"It's not the first time you've been on a mission, don't die too much when you sleep, this time it's a big horse monkey looking for food, and the next time it's not necessarily anything, it's too unjust to be killed while sleeping." Li Ziqiang said solemnly.
"Let's be careful, let's be vigilant." Fauber nodded and said.
"It's likely that they came to investigate under the pretext of looking for food." Li Da, who had not spoken, spoke at this time.
All eyes were on him, as if waiting for his explanation.
"Actually, there has always been a group of foreigners living in this hilly area, and I have known this for a long time, they are the founders of Dragon City, and they are the only foreigners who have not been expelled from the area of the Burning Sun Empire." Li Da explained.
"How do you know that?" Li Ziqiang asked with a frown.
"This is the secret of my jurisdiction, and I also heard from the people by chance, I must have heard that from time to time in this hilly area, there are passing caravans that disappear inexplicably, it should be this group of foreigners."
"What is a foreigner? Am I? Dowling asked with a frown.
"It's not! It is the natives before the Sun Empire, they are brutal by nature but good at civil engineering, so when the first family founded the Sun Empire, they expelled most of the foreigners, and the remaining part was responsible for creating major counties. Li Da explained.
Hearing this, Dowling nodded, if the foreigners mentioned here are from other empires, then the Burning Sun Empire is too much.
"Let's pack up and get ready to leave." Li Ziqiang said.
"It's useless, if they have their eye on us, they won't give up easily." Li Da shook his head and said.
Li Ming said disdainfully: "What are you afraid of?" With so many high-end combat power, is it possible that we will be afraid of this group of foreigners? ”
"Although we are very strong, they are good at civil engineering and good at creating, and if they have powerful machinery, even we have to retreat." Li Da explained.
"It's okay, I'll keep vigil tonight, you go to sleep, I'll call you if there's something, I want to see if those foreigners dare to come." Li Ming waved his hand and said.
When the people saw that he offered to come to the vigil, they were also happy to be idle, and they went back to their tents to sleep.
Back in the tent, Dowling had no intention of sleeping, so he asked Gang Gong if he knew anything about the foreigners.
"The so-called foreigners are nothing but the earliest humans of antiquity, they have always existed, and their wisdom is not inferior to that of modern people, and the reason why various empires have expelled them is because they are like wild beasts, and they will eat people in the case of enlightenment." The sound of the steel hammer sounded in Dowling's mind.
"Aren't we from the same root as them?" Dowling was puzzled.
"With the change of the times, some people have evolved, some people have not been willing to evolve, and it is we who have evolved, and I don't know why we are unwilling to evolve." Steelhammer said.
"All I know is that there is an agreement between the two."
"What agreement?"
"You'll know when you become the emperor, and it's useless to say more now." The steel hammer said in a deep voice.
"Okay." Dowling sighed and replied.
"You have to be careful where you go, it's dangerous." The steel hammer said suddenly.
"What's dangerous?" Dowling asked hurriedly.
"I can't say, I can't interfere with your development, all the roads have to be walked by yourself." Steelhammer said.
Dowling ended the conversation with, and at this time he was not sleepy, so he got up to find Li Da.
Li Da really didn't sleep, and when he saw Daolin coming to him, he invited him in.
"Can you tell me about the foreigners?" Dowling asked straight to the point.
Li Da nodded and said: "In fact, there are often cases of trading houses reporting that their caravans have disappeared in this hilly area, and we say that it was done by bandits, but in fact, it was only a part, and the other part was done by this group of foreigners." ”
"Where do they live? There is no place to live? Dowling asked.
"Didn't you say it before, they are good at civil engineering, the entire hilly and underground is their national capital, they have a large population, and they are a force that should not be underestimated."
"Do they obey you?" Dowling asked.
"No, we can't catch them at all." Li Da shook his head and said.
"You said they were here to find out, what is the chance of that?" Dowling continued.
"More than fifty percent..."After a moment of silence, Li Da spoke.
More than half of the probability is already a big problem, and Dowling's expression is also a little dignified.
"Don't worry, if something happens, I'll identify myself." Li Da patted Dowling on the shoulder and said, then lay down and prepared to sleep.
Dowling returned to his tent, had nothing to do, and began to cultivate cross-legged, the "Evergreen Immortal Technique" is broad and profound, and the further he goes, the stronger he becomes.
The night was uneventful, the expected battle did not happen, and Li Ming shrugged his shoulders at everyone.
The team continued to set off, aiming for the southwest direction, and they did not rush to the road, maintaining a steady pace of progress.
Several people on the road got acquainted with each other, and began to talk to each other about combat experience, Dowling listened very carefully, he still knew too little about combat, and now was a good learning opportunity.
The team stopped and stopped, and three days passed, and the whole way was calm, which made everyone relax, and it seemed that the big horse monkeys were really here to find food.
There was still less than a day to go from the Chuanhei Desert, and they stopped, they had to rest well tonight, and they had to be highly vigilant when they entered the Chuanhei tomorrow.
"Did I guess wrong?" After dinner, Li Da said helplessly.
"I think it's that I've been using it to perceive the underground for the past few days, and I haven't found anything abnormal except for some bugs." Li Ziqiang shook his head and said.
"That's good, it saves a lot of trouble." Li Da smiled and said as he lay down with his arms on his pillow.
On a hill not far behind the team......
"Chief, should we attack them now?" A goblin asked in a low voice.
