"Kaixi! Bring me my shovel! You lazy fellow! A tall Dawner stood by the chicken pen, angrily banging on the wooden fence.

"Yes, my dear sister." The Enlightenment Man, named Kaixi, poked his head out of the hut and then picked out a suitable shovel from the toolbar outside the house.

"To be clear, I'm not lazy. It's just that physical work isn't for me. ”

"Are you still working on your power generation?" Tilly, who is Kaixi's sister, scoops up the chicken droppings in the chicken pen along with the dirt with a shovel.

"Yes. I think I've solved the problem of how to generate electricity, it's just that I'm missing the tools. Hopefully, Dad, they'll be able to collect enough materials in town. Kasai watched his sister's work.

"I don't understand, why can't we go back to town? I miss those hot springs. I can't even take a good bath here. Tilly smelled herself, and she always felt a sour smell.

But she had only taken a shower yesterday.

"Because of the problem of the Cataclysmic Behemoth, there is also a Calamity Behemoth in the Gaoqi Volcano, which is a very dangerous thing. It's not like you don't know how many countries the Winter Flag Alliance destroyed by those natural calamity beasts five years ago, and the leaders of Merylan are now running inland. Kasai gestured with his hands, as if to say something very exaggerated.

"How can those big men care about the lives of us civilians? If you want me to say, if my sister needs to take a bath, I can make a wooden bucket, but the boiling water is slower. ”

"Thanks, I'll wait for Daddy and them to come back, hoping to hear that the Scourge Behemoth has left, so I can go back to town and enjoy the free hot springs. If I could go back, I would definitely go to the hot springs of Manor Rocrolo, which are said to have a good treatment effect on the skin. ”

"You need to know that it's just a gimmick, and the reason why rich wives look young and beautiful is because they spend enough money every year on beauty to buy a big house."

The sister and brother chatted with each other.

Due to the geographical environment, this gathering place is actually not large.

But there are twenty-four houses here.

These houses fill almost the entire space.

People did everything they could to cram themselves into the small house.

Making a fire, cooking, bathing, going to the toilet, it was all arranged outside. Even because of the only source of drinking water, they forbade people to swim in the underground river.

After all, the crack in the underground river is so big, if a naughty child dives down, he may drown because he gets lost.

In this way, their already scarce water resources are lacking.

The leader of the gathering place was an old man named Tamborakam, who was already a well-known old man in the town.

But those big guys don't care if they're famous or not when they flee.

In those forts, the town's fame was of no use, and only money could make them more comfortable.

So the famous old man was left behind by his so-called friends.

This made him angry and scolded.

But now, he has found a reason to continue living.

Lead your fellow citizens to live.

In fact, there are not many people who have left the town, and only a small fraction of those who remain in this gathering place.

Tamborakan stayed solely because he was too old to walk.

Most of the rest do so because they can't leave their homeland, or simply don't think it's possible to travel inland.

In the end, the townspeople who had been walking together left behind such a group of people.

They had been living here for three years, and every other month they sent an advance team to the town where they had lived.

Go investigate if there is any Scourge activity in the town, and the situation of the Gauqi Volcano.

The sky is getting dark, and everyone knows that the night is dark.

As soon as Zun (the name of the star) sets, then there is only darkness left here.

And the advance team said yes, they will come back today.

No matter what happens, you must return to the gathering place before you set down the mountain today.

Due to geomagnetic confusion, radio is unusable in this area.

So people can only use the most primitive method - prayer.

The advance party did not worry the rest of the family, and while the sky was still faintly bright, a group of heavily armed men returned to the gathering place.

"Daddy!" Tilly ran over to the familiar face and handed the food in her hand.

Lacas took the burrito from his daughter's hand and chewed it heavily: "Haha, my good daughter. Saw Manas! I said that my good daughter had prepared a good dinner for me. ”

"Very happy, Captain." The young handsome guy smiled in return, and Tilly's face flushed.

Lacas teased: "Such a well-behaved and sensible girl, why don't you look down on it? ”

"Captain, you know."

"Nas, don't blame yourself for everything." Rakas patted Nass on the arm and left with his daughter.

"Thank you."

Back home, Lacass took off his gear and lay down on his small bed, exhausted.

"Dad, did you find the materials I need?" Kaixi was a little impatient.

But in response to him was Lacas's denial.

"Hey boy, don't be so frustrated. In fact, we brought back good news. Lacas touched his son's head.

"Is it the Scourge Behemoth that has left?"

"Yes, it left. We ventured to explore the Gauzi volcano, and there is no less terrible nuclear radiation under the magma. However, a scourge beast died in the town. All that was left of it was a shell. That shell can't even be pierced by a bullet! I don't know how the man killed it. ”

"People?" Tilly was also drawn to Lacas's words.

"Yes, we found traps and a shotgun on the site, which Scourge doesn't use. With this equipment alone, he took out a scourge beast, is that guy still human? ”

"Maybe it's the superhero that Kaisai was obsessed with when he was a child."

Hearing this, Kaixi immediately jumped up: "Hey! If there can be a natural disaster monster, why can't there be superheroes? Human potential is limitless! Didn't the Winter Flag Alliance find something in the body of the Scourge Behemoth? Maybe it's something that activates human potential. ”

"That's a genetic warrior too."

Lakas looked at the noisy children, although the voice was a little loud, but inexplicably felt steady.

"Maybe in a little while, we'll be able to go back to town. It's just that there's no electricity, but I remember someone in town who has an old diesel generator in their collection, and I hope it can be useful. ”

"Captain! Mr. Tamborakan is looking for you! Outside, Nas's voice rang out.

"Okay, right away!" Lakas got up and couldn't help complaining: "It's really not a rest at all." I'll go back as soon as I go! ”

"Go Dad, tell everyone the good news that the Scourge Behemoth has left!"

Bonfires are lit in the caves, and spiked horses are pulled to the entrance of the cave to prevent wild beasts from raiding.

The advance team recounted their experiences in the past half a month around the bonfire, which caused people to cheer from time to time.

They did bring good news.

Exciting news.

And in the darkness, a figure was silently watching them.

Chen Jing swore that he didn't mean to peek at the little girl taking a bath.
