Volume 2 Moonlight Swordsman Chapter 9 Orcs and Phantom Beasts
"You're awake!" the small-eared fox blinked at the boy with wide eyes, and the two were on the back of the same mammoth.
"Uncle Redstone, he's awake!" the little fox girl shouted to the front with a horn in her hand.
Redstone hurriedly tells the roadwalker to turn around, and he goes underneath the mammoth and finds the boy watching him too. Redstone handed him his kettle and said, "Brave, you've been asleep for almost two days, replenish your water." ”
Yue Xiaobai's loss of voice didn't seem to be good, he made a gesture and pointed to his back.
"We buried her, after all, it is not appropriate to take her with you. Redstone was silent for a moment.
Yue Xiaobai didn't have too much expression, he nodded towards Redstone and tossed the kettle back to him. The big man didn't bother him anymore, and he glanced at the small-eared fox before leaving. The fox girl grimaced at him and stuck out her tongue.
......
"System, properties. He closed his eyes and leaned against the cargo.
Player Name: Yue Xiaobai
Strength: 12 (Silver Advanced)
Constitution: 13 (Silver Peak)
Dexterity: 13 (Silver Peak)
Spirit: 8 (Silver Primary)
......
The feedback of spiritual power allowed his physical fitness to enter the peak of silver, and it was precisely by virtue of this that he was able to pass through the desert.
But that was the end of it, and the silver snowflakes were gone.
"Hey, are you a god?" the small-eared fox cautiously touched him with his finger.
Yue Xiaobai opened her eyes a little and shook her head.
"Then are you the Demon King?" the fox girl had anticipation in her eyes.
He still shook his head.
"Oh. The fox girl let out a breath of disappointment. But she immediately chattered and asked curiously, and she was not afraid to shake Yue Xiaobai's arm.
"How did you get out of the Desert of Death?"
"What's in the desert?"
"Can you tell me about it......?"
"Who is that girl?"
......
It was getting dark, and the caravan had been standing still for some time.
"Brave, come down to eat. Redstone beckoned to the moon in a friendly manner.
The redstone caravan only eats twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. They are not the only ones, they are the same for everyone on this continent.
When it came to eating, Yue Xiaobai suddenly realized that he hadn't eaten for more than ten days.
He was also full of doubts about the continent, the cracks in the sky, the vanishing elements in the air, and the monsters that left orange orbs behind when they died. But his throat is now injured and he can't ask.
Dinner was fragrant, and the aunt who was cooking was busy with an apron.
"Brave, it's yours. The aunt's voice was angry, and she kindly handed the food to the young man.
Yue Xiaobai took half a step back, shocked by her appearance, she actually had a tiger's head!
"Thank you, Aunt Oniah. The little eared fox helped him take the food, touched him suspiciously, and said, "What's wrong?"
"Let's go under the big tree over there, it's not going to be so hot there!"
When Yue Xiaobai followed her, she suddenly noticed that a fluffy white tail was swaying behind her.
Yue Xiaobai: "......"
Halfway through the meal, Redstone comes over again, and he pulls out something made of green blades of grass from his bosom, and takes out a crushed Mystery of Life in it.
"Maybe this will work for you. Redstone plucked a petal and handed it to him.
Yue Xiaobai was not polite, he really needed this. The mystery of his own life and the blood-colored camellia were consumed in the desert.
"Thank you. "His throat was repaired by the mystery of life.
"Okay, you're welcome, when you're out of the house, you can help. I wonder where the Brave came from?" Redstone was also curious about his origins, having never heard of anyone making it out of the Desert of Death.
Yue Xiaobai was silent, and he didn't intend to tell the truth, this caravan did save him, and he was ready to repay him, but it didn't mean that he trusted them.
"Haha...... It's me who took the liberty of talking, you talking, you talking. Redstone smiled heartily and left the place.
"Where is this?" asked the little eared fox after sending Hongshi away.
"This is the edge of the Desert of Death, and you will reach the Black Scorpion Tribe in five days. ”
"On which side of the continent is the Black Scorpion Tribe?"
"To the east!"
"Why haven't I ever heard that there is a black scorpion tribe on our continent?"
"You are stupid, we have abandoned so many tribes in the continent, how can anyone know about it!"
"Oh. Yue Xiaobai chewed food in small bites, and the last thing she wanted appeared.
The God Forsaken Continent was the battlefield of the Holy War, and it was from here that the entire continent was divided into thirteen.
At that time, the continent was cracked, and the remaining twelve pieces were all drifting away, and only the God Forsaken Continent remained in its original position.
It is surrounded on all sides by the ocean and is isolated from the rest of the world.
And this ocean is called, the Endless Sea.
Yue Xiaobai asked the little fox a lot of questions from the side, and the simple little fox girl knew everything.
He learned some of his previous doubts.
For example, the blood-colored camellia and the mystery of life can be found anywhere on this continent. At the time of the holy war, all races were killed, gods and demons fell, and countless strong people died here, which also created the universality of these two strange flowers.
Another example is the monster of the stone ox, which is called a phantom beast here. They range from one phantom beast to five phantasm beasts, and each phantom beast will leave an orange stone after death, which can strengthen the body after use.
The stone cow that Yue Xiaobai encountered was a one-pattern phantom beast, and the giant lying on the ruins was most likely a five-patterned phantom beast.
Phantom beasts only appeared after the Holy War, after the elemental disappearance. There are two rumors about their appearance, but both are related to the elements. Some people say that the phantom beast is another form of elemental power, an alienation of the elements in order to continue to exist.
There are also those who insist on another theory, they believe that the elemental power has died after the holy war, and the phantom beast is the corpse of the element.
These two statements are the same in Yue Xiaobai's opinion, the phantom beast is the element.
Brave is the name of the powerful in this continent, and only those who can defeat the phantom beast alone are qualified to be called brave.
This is a continent without elements, and all the fighting methods are the most direct collision of forces, and their physical fitness is far stronger than that of the people in the Shen'an Continent.
And the formation of the half-orcs originated from the existence of the orc.
Phantom beasts with more than three stripes, after being defeated by the brave alone, have a chance to merge with the brave, and the brave will gain more powerful power and a longer lifespan. Since the Holy War, I have not heard of a single beast master who died of old age.
Strength and longevity have a fatal attraction to the brave, so many powerful heroes will choose to travel alone, hoping to defeat a three-striped phantom beast and become a beast master.
But after merging with the Phantom Beast and becoming a Beastmaster, the Brave will have an irreversible change, their bodies will change into beast-like existences, and even their descendants will have the same characteristics. This is also the origin of the orcs.
However, the people here are in pursuit of strength, and they are not averse to the appearance and size of the beast, on the contrary, they take pride in it.
What makes the beast masters even more excited is that when their descendants form a tribe size, even if their bodies are killed, the beast soul will still be immortal, and they only need the descendants to provide faith to survive forever.
Therefore, the first step after they become beast masters is to reproduce offspring and form a tribe.
The gods abandoned the continent, and the orcs prospered because of it.
