Chapter 56: Beesymour

"Come in."

"Thank you very much."

As if he had already grasped the victory, Wu responded to the man's welcome with a pre-arranged smile.

In the southernmost part of Staphen lies a hot and humid land.

It has a semi-tropical climate, and because of its southerly location, the temperature difference between day and night is more extreme than elsewhere.

The wetlands are rich in a special mineral, as well as abundant water and fish, which is enough to survive.

Along with the geographical environment, there are three major races living in the land-

The Celestial Snakes, the Fish-Men and the Snake Clans.

Among them, there is a lot of dislike between the Celestial Snake Clan and the Fish-Man Clan, and the Snake Clan has a good cooperative relationship with the Celestial Snake Clan, but there is no hostility between the Fish-Man Clan.

If you want to say that the strongest ethnic group with the strongest military strength is definitely the Celestial Snake Clan, which can perform "space magic".

It overlaps with the abilities that Kurt holds.

Because of the excellent genes of their ancestors, almost all the descendants of the Celestial Snake Clan have the ability to cast spatial magic.

However, this does not mean that the strength level of the Celestial Snake Clan and Kurt is equal to each other.

Unlike the spatial magic used by Kurt, the Celestial Snake Clan can only use it as a means of killing, and only that.

It is not possible to use spatial shifts to change positions, and it is impossible to use spatial dimensional confusion to peek into the distance...... wait

The qualifications of the Celestial Snake Clan are far inferior to those of Kurt, and the abilities they show are certainly not so versatile.

But it's also a pretty reasonable fact - the Celestial Snake is just an ordinary subspecies, and Kurt is a god.

And rightfully so, there are unattainable differences between races.

What is the combat effectiveness of the Fish-Man Clan, the natural enemy of the Celestial Snake Clan?

In fact, it should be unsatisfactory.

Unlike the special talents of the Celestial Snake Clan, the Fish-Man Clan does not have special genes among them.

It is unlikely that there will be a Chosen One among the races.

But there is naturally a reason why the Fish-Man Clan can survive in this land and fight with the Celestial Snake Clan for a long time.

The reason is that he is born with a strong physique.

It's a strange constitution that is born to fight—it can heal wounds quickly, no matter how severe.

In addition to the terrifying ability to heal itself, strong muscles that can burst strength in a short period of time are also important keys.

They are good at using weapons, have a very unique understanding of fighting skills, and are a strong fighting nation.

All these qualifications make the Fish-People perform like a fish in water in hand-to-hand combat, and they are not afraid of "space magic" at all.

If you want to compare it with the guardian spirit around Wu, it may be very similar to Kui Yong's combat characteristics.

What about the snake people, who are relatively neutral?

The answer is very clear - there is no combat power to speak of.

He doesn't have the slightest magical talent to be proud of, and he doesn't have the good qualities to fight—

But he has quite a smart IQ.

According to legend, the snake people are distant relatives of the Celestial Snake Clan, and they also inherit some of the power of their ancestors in their bodies.

However, it is not the power of inherited space magic, but the innate superior intelligence.

This kind of intelligence cannot be understood by what ordinary people call "intelligence".

It is a special element that gathers in the brain, and finally refines the refining element that can stimulate the brain.

This refining element is the "spiritual" element that can transform the subconscious of others.

Or rather, "consciousness magic" - this ability is undoubtedly supermaterial magic.

It's just that the snake people are a relatively peaceful race, and they didn't use this power to participate in the war in the land.

Or maybe they don't have the talent to open the law.

The establishment of a good relationship with the Celestial Snake Clan is only because of the bloodline, which naturally brings the two clans closer.

However, there is no intention to oppose the Fish-People because of this.

Of course, if these three clans can shake hands and support each other, they will definitely gather a lot of strength.

At that time, I am afraid that it will be a powerful presence that will put the five major powers on guard.

Although given the current situation, it is unlikely that such a thing will happen, right?

It's hard to say – no one would have thought that these three would be so appreciated today.

Somewhere near a pond in this desolate land, a portal suddenly appeared in the cold and humid air.

Two figures with a huge disparity in size followed.

Kurt and the Sirens.

It's like a father taking his daughter on a trip, and the disparity in appearance inadvertently creates such an image.

Those slender legs landed perfectly, and the calm eyes began to confirm the surroundings-

Make sure it's your goal.

The siren perched on Kurt's right shoulder followed suit.

They are surrounded by dense verdant rainforests and ponds beside the soft loose soil.

It was already a silent night, and all that was left around was the sound of cicadas, and the only thing left was the biting cold wind.

Of course—for the two gods with strong physiques, this harsh environment of low temperatures was nothing.

The siren's face was full of disgust—dissatisfied with the environment of the land.

"Cote, where is this?"

"Somewhere in the north of the Stafen Plains, a land rich in minerals and aquatic resources."

"It doesn't look like a good place to build a place to live, does it?"

"Why?"

"What else could be the reason? The disgusting wet earth was everywhere, the air was filled with a foul smell of water, and the surrounding area was filled with stuffy moisture, and the noble adults were not suitable for such a dirty environment. ”

"Is there any other reason?"

"What else...... That alone is enough to dispel our thoughts. ”

"Hehehehe-hehe-"

Kurt couldn't help but smile, as if he was disapproving of the siren's innocence.

The laughter caused displeasure among the sirens. The little cherry mouth pursed angrily.

"What are you laughing at?"

"I'm sorry - I didn't mean to laugh at you, just genuinely amused by your naivety."

"What a disgusting bend - and this is a mockery, isn't it?"

"I'm sorry, I'm going to talk about my thoughts – first of all, that's not where my ultimate goal is."

"By 'here' do you mean where we're standing now?"

"It's not, it's 'this whole wetland.'"

"Isn't this whole piece of land the same, what's new?"

"Because there are three major forces that can support adults living here - have you heard of the 'Celestial Snake Clan', the 'Fish Man Clan', and the 'Snake Man Clan'?"

"No—what kind of weak race is that? I haven't even heard of it. ”

"It may be an insignificant existence for us, but it is a top-notch existence on the plains."

"Top notch, you say? What great talents can this mediocre subspecies have? ”

"Well—maybe you can't understand it with one-sided words, but ignore these subspecies for now. At best, this is the starting point, as a starting point for the recapture of the entire plain. ”

"So you're just picking this bad environment because you like their strength?"

"It's not entirely because of my strength, but it's almost half because of what made me decide to do so."

"Ridiculous, isn't it? Then why not directly attack the relatively powerful dragon clan and make it subordinate to the lord's command? ”

Listening to the Siren's unintentional question, Kurt shook his head helplessly.

"To do that would be against the will of the adults."

"Are you trying to tell us to choose the 'open space'? But didn't you also choose a place where you have a race to live? ”

"Not in that regard. I mean, 'To survive under the eyes of humanity'. ”

"Oh? So to speak...... Adults seem to have emphasized this point in particular. ”

"That's right! Dragons are quite high-profile beings in the human world, and attacking them rashly will inevitably attract unwanted attention—compared to these three races, the risk of attracting attention is greatly reduced. ”

Kurt explained in great detail, but the sirens were still puzzled.

However, it's not that Kurt is inadequate, nor is it that the sirens have poor comprehension.

Rather, they are puzzled by other unreasonableness.

This confusion comes from the order of the "open space".

"But don't you want us to look for open space? Isn't it against the will of the adults that you are doing this? ”

"Not exactly—do you think that the 'open space' you mean is just a façade?"

"Or else?"

The siren asked in confusion, and the question marks were all written on his face.

But this is a very normal reaction - no smart person can understand Kurt's thoughts.

That's a very unique understanding.

"What is your definition of 'open space'?"

"Isn't it just a barren land where there's nothing?"

"But it seems to me that the 'open space' in the minds of adults is the territory that can be commanded by oneself."

Kurt's expression looked very powerful, and it also made the siren's thoughts begin to slowly drift.

"What's ...... What do you mean? ”

"As long as you take all the species of this land for yourself, doesn't that mean that everything is nothing? Without the presence and threat of hostility, managers are a part of themselves. ”

"What does that have to do with the word clearing?"

"Of course there is a connection – for trespassers, the enemy is the only stumbling block. Now that the enemies are all naturalized under the command of the adults, isn't this land equal to the slightest obstacle? ”

"What do you mean...... As long as you kill all these enemies, that is the result that the adults want? ”

"Of course, this is the perfect situation, but it's a pity that the adults want to be able to attract the enemy with probation."

"Oh...... I see. ”

There was still a look of confusion on his face, but that couldn't be blamed on the Siren's comprehension.

This is not normal thinking, and naturally it cannot be understood with normal thinking.

It can only be said that Kurt's idea is definitely far beyond Wu's cognition - but Wu ignorantly handed it over to Kurt.

I am afraid that the results of this set of actions will not be carried out according to Wu's prediction, and will be an unexpected development.

In the grasslands surrounding the country of Einke, the sound of dull conversation was heard.

"What's going to be done next?"

"Maybe it's the use of the splinter to hunt down the humans that the adults want to track."

"Wouldn't that be too conspicuous? So many people who look the same are walking in the country at the same time. ”

"You can rest assured, I will start the search in batches at the wrong time. As for you, Kui Yong. ”

A worried tone came out of the night pavilion's mouth.

"What's wrong?"

"Although you have traveled to the human world during this time, you don't seem to be familiar with human cognition?"

"It's true – but I'll do my best to fix it."

Kui Yong spoke firmly, in the tone that a determined warrior should have.

But the Night's worries didn't fade because of this-

"Although my splinter lodges on you, I would like to remind you that humans are quite cunning creatures who are quite outrageous, and should not be easily exaggerated by human emotions."

"Are you afraid that I will be mistaken by humans?"

"Of course not. I'm just worried that it will delay or even ruin the progress of the tasks given to you by adults. ”

"Well—I see."

The two figures talked silently in the dark night.

A rugged figure and a strong figure.

There were no passers-by in the vicinity, as it was on the edge of the border with Einck, and there seemed to be no guards around.

"Alright—that's all that needs to be said, I'm ready to go."

"Well, then I'll go in the direction of Aynk."

The two figures parted ways, each heading for their own mission objectives.

Following the man's slow pace and enduring the vigilant gaze of the villagers, Wu and the others followed the man to a dilapidated log cabin, which was already the most luxurious building in the village.

The wooden houses are located in the depths of the village, and there are scattered and dilapidated thatched huts built around them.

As far as the eye can see, it is made of loose thatch, and even the cold wind may not be able to stop it, let alone in the event of an earthquake of magnitude, the degree of reliability is really debatable.

Just by the level of the houses, you can see how poor the village is.

The walls of the wooden house are all signs of corrosion, maybe because the climate in the southeast is a little humid?

In any case, the man's willingness to take us into a relatively comfortable wooden house should be regarded as a relief, right?

"This wooden house is probably the only one in the village built with normal building materials, right?"

"Sort of, if you don't use thatch as a building material."

"May I ask?"

"What? Do you want to go to the toilet? ”

"No—why, according to you, are you willing to endure such shabby rather than accept the kindness of other nations? Does this seem to have a negative impact on the future of the village? ”

The man continued walking, unappreciative. I didn't plan to turn my head around and face this question, let alone answer it seriously.

“…… I guess you just want to spend the night, right? ”

"That's true."

"Since you're just a borrower, I hope you don't bother asking about the village."

"Oh - I'm sorry for making you feel uncomfortable."

"It's okay."

The calm tone did not feel the anger, and it was still a gentle and flat response.

It's not like a dead man's lifelessness, but rather an innate calmness.

He didn't behave or speak like a child growing up in this dilapidated village.

The other party didn't seem to want to answer my question about the village, and was going to continue asking-

But in order not to anger the other party and eventually be kicked out, he had to swallow the problem back in his stomach.

I also stopped in front of the door of the wooden house, the rotten wooden door was almost impossible to close completely.

At a cursory glance, this wooden house should be the man's residence, but he didn't just open the door—

Instead, he knocked politely on the door, as if he were about to visit the tenant of the cabin.

"I'm back, I have a guest who wants to borrow for a night, let's open the door!"

The man shouted to the other end of the wooden door, even though the broken wooden door only needed a nudge to knock open.

There was no response from the other end of the door, but there was the sound of impatient footsteps approaching the door.

The footsteps grew louder and louder, and finally suddenly stopped.

"Squeak——————

This was followed by the sound of a wooden door in disrepair.

The wooden door was pushed open, and the figure in the room came into view.

is a young woman.

The height is roughly estimated at 1.6 meters, the body is moderate, and the appearance is quite lively.

With wavy dark brown hair and ordinary small charms hanging from her earlobes on both sides, she looks like an ordinary young housewife. On the right side hangs a simple wooden hairpin - without any exaggerated flamboyance, but it sets off the ability of a simple peasant girl.

A dusty gray apron hides tattered coffee-colored short sleeves, and a drab beige dress is worn.

Her skin is a healthy sun-kissed color, but she doesn't have the luster she should have as a woman. The hands are not only covered with broken calluses, but also attached to a lot of turquoise vegetable leaf scraps.

Big eyes with beautiful emerald green eyes looked at Wu and the others.

Unlike men, women do not show a clear sense of repulsion, but are only surprised by the unfamiliar figure.

"May I ask who you ......?"

"We are travelers who have traveled the world, and we were lost in the neighborhood because we couldn't calculate the time to go to the big town to rest, and we happened to pass by your village and decided to borrow a night just as we were in a daze, and I'm sorry to disturb you."

"It's okay to bother, it's mainly up to 'Besimor' to think personally."

Bessemore——? Could it be the deputy village chief's real name? ”

The man nodded.

"Exactly. Let's go inside the house first, the temperature outside is not high, and it is easy to catch a cold after staying for a long time. ”

"Ahhh——! That's right! Please come in. ”

Shocked that she shouldn't have let Wu and the others stay outside the house for a long time, the woman looked a little flustered.

Wu just smiled disappreciatively.

"Please don't worry too much, do you need to take off your shoes?"

"You don't have to take off your shoes, the house is already dirty, and it doesn't matter if you take them off or not."

"In that case—we're bothering."

Wu thanked him softly and slowly walked into the house.

Although the man stated that he did not need to take off his shoes, Wu still took off his novel cloth shoes as a courtesy.

This act of taking off their shoes undoubtedly affected Chio and Longnsmu, and they also took off their respective shoes.

Three strange figures walked into the strange wooden house—

The sizzling sound of wood accentuates the shabby interior of the room, which is vaguely filled with a slightly stronger smell of dampness.

This made Wu, who was pampered before his death, couldn't help frowning slightly.

The space of the whole wooden house is very small, and it is very different from the bedroom of Wang Cheng, where he lived before his death.

There is a tattered wooden dining table with three wooden chairs with many patches next to it. On the wooden table was a rusty iron plate—not a cutlery for food, but a light source supported by a burning flame on the plate.
