Chapter 428 is unavoidable The words of the cold night made the little good mood and sense of superiority that Lan Lan and Tacitus had just bred suddenly disappear The two glanced at each other, and they both saw a trace of deep fear and strong vigilance in each other's eyes.
Of course, in Tacitus's heart, there was a little more self-blame What is the reason why I am so paralyzed?
It's because there is such a super master as a cold night along the way Because these days come without incident Because after being accepted into this valley last night, I finally enjoyed that long-lost comfort It was because of the contempt for these alien races in his bones that he saw those orcs in tattered clothes like beggars, that he gradually became proud and frivolous Han Ye's words became more and more unkind, and she said slowly in a low tone: "I don't know what kind of world it is in your hometown where you came from.
But here, it's not as peaceful as you seem.
At least for outsiders like you, this is not a paradise. ” Lan Lan and Tacitus returned to their lodgings, in a bad mood all the time.
The two of them, who calmed down, carefully recalled some details that they had ignored because of pride in the stone house where they had met before, and after calming down and recalling, they were quickly recalled.
In retrospect, it was a very dangerous scene The leader of the orcs did not stop looking at the cold night with his eyes when he finally spoke.
Moreover, I remember that in the room at that time, there were several orc warriors, who had quietly stood in several key positions around them: the door.
On the edge of the table, and behind him It can be said that if it weren't for the protection of the cold night, if the orcs suddenly turned their faces at that time, it would have been with Tacitus's skills.
It's also hard to get out of it all the time In such a narrow room, it is difficult to show it, and the strength of the orcs is naturally not doubted.
Damn, they're orcs, but they're harmless babies who love each other and love each other After suffering this blow, Tacitus and Lan Lan did not dare to relax in the slightest.
Originally, they planned to rest in this valley for a while longer, but because of the episode of this matter, the two discussed it.
Only one more night of rest here.
On the morning of the third day, the human adventurers decided to leave the valley and continue their journey.
When it came time to say goodbye to the natives of the valley, the dwarves had no roads.
The orc leader still acted as if he was still warm and friendly.
It's just that when they said goodbye to the humans, these orcs obviously showed a very regretful expression. bemoan The expression of this expression made Tacitus nervous for a while.
His hand was subconsciously placed closest to the hilt of the sword.
The cold night's attitude was still very calm, and she accepted the greetings and farewells of the elves, and was the first to jump on the leaves of the boat floating on the riverside.
When most of the unbeazed humans in the group had boarded the leaves, more than twenty leaves slowly floated out of the valley along the Surumby River and re-entered the open area Standing on the bow of the boat in the cold night, he turned around and glanced at the people standing behind him.
A human long-legged chick who wants to talk and stops.
"You're wise."
Although the tone of the cold night still carried a little bit of mockery, this time it seemed to be much more relaxed.
She slowly continued, "It's smart to leave this valley early.
Because the wealth you have shown is so tempting.
It's like putting a big piece of fragrant fat in the middle of a group of dying beasts.
Even with me in charge, it's hard for me to be sure that their greed will break through their minds and what they will do.
Leaving early is good for everyone. ” Lan Lan's body trembled, and he smiled reluctantly: "How can it be, after all, you are by our side, those guys."
I don't dare to do it in front of you."
"But I can't stand by your side day and night."
Hanye shook his head: "If they suddenly attack, and kill you before I come back, then even if I know afterwards, I can't kill them all to avenge you humans." ” Lan Lan stopped talking.
She knew very well that what Cold Night said was the truth.
Although everyone is a companion, after all, it is just a meeting in Pingshui.
Cold Night is willing to help his own people, that is the kindness and simplicity of the elf race.
But if the orcs did kill some humans.
After all, Han Ye is a native here, and there is no reason for her to seek revenge on her old neighbors for the sake of some people she met in Pingshui.
"Actually, I've always wanted to remind you that maybe the way you appear seems to be a little too ostentatious for this continent."
A faint reminder of a cold night.
The elf's reminder was quickly implemented.
After experiencing the dangers of being in that valley, Lan Lan and Tacitus discussed for a long time and reacted.
In terms of the equipment and clothing of this adventure team, it is too ostentatious in this barren abandoned continent that is so barren that its neighbors can send it.
The clothes, fabrics, accessories, armor, armor, weapons and equipment they wear.
Compared to these local natives, it is enough to brighten the eyes of blind people In such a strange and dangerous place, such a high-profile advance is simply to invite yourself to trouble.
After deliberating, the two leaders quickly made adjustments to the team.
The original Holy Knight, as the strongest armed force in the team, will not make major changes for the time being.

But all the crew, sailors and others, for the time being, collected all their weapons and concentrated them in the storage ring as a reserve.
It is actually a waste to let a group of crew sailors who actually have little combat power, holding sophisticated metal weapons.
According to Cold Night's introduction, there are many places on this continent similar to the valley settlement that I just left, and the pure metal weapons, in good condition, are of good quality, such as those used by these sailors and crews, even in the settlement.
It can only be equipped by the boss-level ones.
Having a large crew of sailors with little martial arts skills swaggering all the way with the finest weapons and equipment in full metal is like letting a three-year-old child walk down the street with a huge sum of money.
The personnel of the Church, with the exception of the magicians, collected their weapons and equipment.
The magician keeps his wand, but tries to disguise the gems set in the wand as much as possible, such as applying a layer of mud.
This move was actually a blow to Tacitus.
Because before the landing.
It was Tacitus who ordered everyone to take out the best and latest clothes, put on the best armor, and take out the most elven weapons, in order to show the "human civilization" on this continent the demeanor of the Rolands. outcome Continue north along this "River of Hope".
Along the way, nearly another month passed.
During this period, he passed through two settlements.
Of course, neither of these settlements was as large as the previous valley.
Like that valley after all.
It is extremely rare and rare to have a unique terrain.
The two settlements we pass through are small villages built along the banks of the Surumbi River, and the population is not too large.
That's about three to five hundred people.
Through the mouth of the cold night, Lan Lan and Tacitus learn more information.
More than a hundred years ago, most of the aliens on this continent.
The Duju tribe migrated and headed towards the Roland Continent to compete with the Roland people for land.
And the very few aliens who stayed refused to leave to join the war, and were willing to stay here to continue to struggle to survive.
And.
Ancestors have lived here for 10,000 years, and for these people, they have long forgotten that their ancestors' homeland is on another continent.
For them, this is their home.
"There weren't many people left at the time."
Han Ye told Lan Lan: "The total population of several races is less than 10,000.
In the past hundred years, the population may have increased somewhat, but it will not exceed the fecundity of 20,000 orcs, and after the migration of the vast majority of tribes, the number of people left behind is smaller, and on average, everyone can get more resources.
Life is much better than it used to be.
So the population growth of orcs is the fastest.
But dwarves and elves, especially elves, don't have a high fecundity in the first place, so there is hardly much growth. ” However, Lan Lan also said that among the races that stayed at the beginning.
The largest number is the elves.
Probably because the elves like comfort by nature and hate war, there are many elves who do not choose to follow Luoxue on the "road of return." ” After passing through the two settlements, Lan Lan and Tacitus were not as relaxed as before, and they pulled themselves together without any further problems.
And after a possible convergence, coupled with so many days of trekking along the way, the human beings also looked in tatters, and the original beautiful new clothes were also full of mud and torn everywhere.
This undoubtedly reduces the "attractiveness".
In addition, there was a mysterious elf with the identity of Cold Night as a companion, and the settlements along the way received them very calmly, and then stopped for a short time and continued on the road.
Finally, on this day, in front of the Surumbi River, a very big bend suddenly appeared in the river Cold Night tells Lanlan and Tacitus that it's time to go ashore The elves made it clear to the humans that the protection of the Surumbi River was over.
The path ahead is contrary to the safety line of this river of hope. “ "We'll walk east for a few days, and then we'll reach my elven tribe, which is a forest.
It is also the largest forest on the continent.
Because there is a powerful elven tribe there, it is also the safest place on the continent.
But before you get there, this part of the journey will be the final test. ” Cold Night's eyes were serious, she looked at Lan Lan with a deep look, and then at Tacitus again.
Finally, the elf whispered something that made Lan Lan's face a little ugly.
"That would be a good thing, but I have to be honest with you, the rest of the journey will be dangerous, and because of the size of your team, it will be difficult for me to take care of all of you alone when passing through this dangerous area.
So I have to be clear to you: not everyone in your team will make it to their destination alive.
On this journey, there will be attrition whether you want to or not.
I'm sorry to tell you the bad news, but I can't guarantee the safety of all of you on my own.

All you have to do is try to keep the team as close as possible, don't walk around, try to lean close to me, and some of the distances are very difficult to walk, and the terrain and environment are terrible. ” These words sent chills down the hearts of Lan Lan and Tacitus After the procession went ashore.
I took a final break.
Taking advantage of the fact that they had not yet left the scope of this "river of hope", everyone stayed by the river for the night, rested well, had a good night's sleep, and replenished their strength.
This is the last refuge of the Surumbi River for everyone.
Early the morning of the second day ashore, the team set out on this dangerous journey.
Cold Night didn't lie The attrition on the third day of going ashore to re-walk took place.
On a plain wilderness that originally looked.
Walking and walking, on the side of the team, several crew members who had unknowingly separated from the team, suddenly after an exclamation, the ground under their feet collapsed, and a sinkhole appeared Immediately, four hapless crew members fell straight in The collapse of the ground is spreading rapidly.
The people around them screamed and ran in all directions.
In the end, the area of this sinkhole reached more than ten meters wide.
A terrifying scene that made people's scalp tingle happened Underneath the sinkhole, there were piles of wriggling bugs These bugs resemble ants, but each one is larger than a mouse The four people who fell only had time to let out a few screams before they were bitten to death by these huge ants What's even more terrifying is that some giant ants have gotten straight into their mouths and are bursting out of their stomachs The tragedy happened too fast And when the sinkhole collapsed.
Everyone around them was busy scattering to make sure they wouldn't fall again.
By the time Cold Night and Tacitus came up to try to rescue them, the four people below were silent.
There are thick black tunnels on the pit, deep and secluded, leading to the underground I don't know how deep And the four unlucky crew members were quickly dragged by those giant ants and disappeared into the corridor Then the sand rolls and it is reburied Tacitus was so brave that he drew his sword and was about to jump down the sinkhole, but the cold night grabbed him.
"It's useless."
The elf's tone was almost cold: "These bugs are poisonous.
If you are bitten by them, you will die quickly, and even if you can drag people back, they will not survive, and you, even if you have good martial arts.
If you get a bite, you're dead. ” Tacitus' body froze.
He could understand some elven language, but he couldn't speak, and he just stared at the cold night in vain.
Hanye sighed softly: "I'm sorry I told you a long time ago, someone will die along the way."
There's nothing I can do. ” After a pause, the elf continued to explain: "These strange insects are entrenched underground, in fact they are very inactive, they are entrenched underground as if they were feigning death, but they dig traps on the surface.
If no prey falls into the pit, they can even stay motionless under the pit for many years, the body of these insects is very weird, and they have a lot of earth elements, so even if I stand here, if the insects underground are not active, I can't detect their existence unless they move.
Otherwise, even if I use my mental sense, I will only mistakenly think that it is a pile of sand and stones. ” This accident aroused everyone's vigilance.
In the next journey, Cold Night took the initiative to walk at the forefront of the team, and everyone only dared to step on the ground she walked behind her, and no one dared to move to the sides at will.
But even so, something happened again.
On the evening of the tenth day In the middle of the night, a sleeping man was killed by a clergyman in the church.
This poor fellow suddenly jumped up in his sleep, dancing like crazy, and the people around him were awakened and tried to hold him down, but they were immediately dragged back by the cold night that rushed over for the first time Cold Night almost violently kicked away the people who tried to get close to that guy one by one Tacitus did not get hot-headed, but stood in front of the cold night and shouted, "Save him" This elven phrase was learned by Tacitus on the road with Lan Lan.
Cold Night's reaction was indifferent, and she confronted Tacitus.
Slowly, but resolutely, he shook his head Next, everyone saw the guy dancing with his hands suddenly plop and pounce on the ground again.
Then, suddenly, a layer of black smoke floated up from his body "Stand Back" Cold Night immediately dragged a few humans around him, pulled them behind him, and kept retreating.
At this time, both Lanlan and Tacitus saw clearly Where is the black smoke It's a swarm of tiny bugs Each insect was about the size of a grain of sand, and it flew together like a cloud of black smoke Looking at the cold night as if facing a great enemy, no human dared to step forward to provoke.
And this black "smoke", flew up.
The cold night suddenly grabbed a handful of things from his arms and raised them It was a green mass of powder With a bang, as soon as the "smoke" came into contact with the green powder, it immediately seemed to encounter something particularly frightening, quickly retreated, and then gradually disappeared into the night.
Far away "It's a more terrible poisonous insect."
Cold Night explained to Tacitus: "They are afraid of the sun and only move in the dark, and ordinary means cannot prevent it.
Once they get on your body, they quickly inject eggs from your pores and the person dies.
The eggs of this insect are so small that they are not even visible to the naked eye, but they have a strong toxin that can make people temporarily crazy and then die. ” She looked down at the guy on the ground on the surface.
He didn't seem to have any injuries, but if you walked in and looked at it, you could see that his exposed skin was slightly red, as if he had rubbed it with his hands.
"He's dead."
Han Ye's voice was soft: "You at least burn his corpse, because there are a lot of eggs of that terrible bug in his corpse now, this kind of thing multiplies very quickly, and it only takes three days at most, and the eggs will hatch into more bugs." ” After a pause, Han Ye sighed: "Fortunately, the lifespan of this insect is very short, from hatching to death, their lifespan is only about ten days, and as long as it is illuminated by the sun." will be sunburned to death very quickly.
During the day, they hide underground or in crevices of rocks. ” Tacitus's eyes were fixed on the cold night's hand.
Lan Lan stood behind him, sighed, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Lord Cold Night, what you just spilled" "It's a plant powder.
It is the natural enemy of this small insect, and every time I go out, I will bring some with me, and sprinkle some around when I rest, so that they will not dare to approach. ” Tacitus understood, and then he suddenly became angry His eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "If you have such a thing, why don't you use it, he won't be attacked by these bugs in his sleep" Although Han Ye couldn't understand Roland, looking at Tacitus's excited and angry expression, he probably guessed the meaning of Tacitus's words.
The elf said coldly, "I didn't expect to meet so many of you before I went out.
The powder of this plant I carried was very small, only enough for me to use when I camped at night, and now there are so many people in the team, and the area is so large when I camp, the powder I carry is not enough at all, and I have already used it for you, otherwise, how do you think the previous two nights were spent safely, but before camping tonight, I don't have much powder left, and there is still a long way to go, so I have to leave some time to use later."

After a pause, the elf stared at Tacitus, and his eyes became more sharp: "What do you think this plant powder is, this is a kind of flower stamen from a cannibal tree that eats people, it is very dangerous to collect this kind of stamen, among our elven clan, these stamens are collected during the flower season every year, so that the elves risk their lives to get close to these dangerous cannibal trees" Lan Lan was stunned for a moment, and then quickly explained these words to Tacitus.
Tacitus listened, his face turned red, he glanced deeply at the cold night, took a breath, and then said in a low voice: "I'm sorry I misunderstood you, I apologize to you." ” Seeing that Tacitus bowed slightly to himself, Han Ye retreated sideways, and said softly to Lan Lan: "You tell him that I won't be angry with him, I understand his feelings of losing his companions, but please all remember, I reminded you, this road is very dangerous, and death is inevitable." ` Attention, the benefits of prestige are about to be distributed, and I will publish one of my old books on my prestige, and it is all free to send out, and the book has only gone before the entity has never been published online.
