194. Out of the Forest
() Under the rotten grass blades, there is a slippery mud ground. The sky is dark with large cumulonimbus clouds, electric snakes dance wildly, thunder flashes, and heavy rain pours heavily on this boundless primeval forest.
Covered with a thick coarse cloth tent, Shan Ye's huge and plump body moved forward quickly.
This tent was originally prepared for outdoor living. Unexpectedly, the heavy rain started the day before yesterday, so Mr. Shan had to take out this two-person tent and use it as a poncho.
Dozens of white minks were hiding comfortably on Shan Ye, scurrying back and forth from time to time, playing and having fun. The heavy rain did not diminish the fun of these white minks at all.
For the ferrets who have been living in the miasma, rain is also a novel experience.
Wanting to escape from this heavy rain area, Mr. Shan ran for a whole day and night, but he was still surrounded by these endless rainstorms.
"Huh?" Mr. Shan shouted in a low voice as he was dodging, stopped abruptly, and squinted his eyes to look at a shack with heavy man-made traces.
There were several stones surrounding the ground, and a shallow fire pit was dug out in the middle. The scorched black marks of the fire pit were still clearly visible. Looking up, my eyes fell on the simple shack made of tree branches.
With a tap of his toes, Shanye's huge and plump body fell weightlessly next to the shack like a feather.
He picked up a withered yellow leaf with his thick fingers and held it up in front of his eyes to examine it carefully.
After a moment, Shan Ye's scarlet eyes flashed with joy, he pursed his lips and whispered: "We are finally out of this forest!"
The presence of human traces proves that this place is not far from human settlements.
Suppressing the joy in his heart, Master Shan stroked this simple shack with his big hands, and there was a hint of impatience in the corners of his eyes.
During this period of time, he has been studying the space knowledge and skills in his mind. Shanye created more than 20 small skills in less than a month.
Not only that, my understanding of space has risen to a new level.
After the rain, the sky cleared, and Shan Ye's strong and plump figure bounced quickly and lightly in the forest. A few spatial fluctuations flashed across his body from time to time, making Shan Ye feel as comfortable as walking on flat ground in the mountains and forests.
As there are fewer and fewer giant trees in the sky, Master Shan's mood becomes more and more relaxed.
Another day later, Master Shan finally stopped in front of a mountain wall. After climbing over this mountain, he should be able to see a human settlement.
"Brother, be careful! Grab my hand, don't let go, don't let go!!"
Mr. Shan was facing the mountain wall. He was expressing his depressed feelings for several days, and bursts of heartbreaking cries, including heart-shaking cries, suddenly came from above his head.
Shan Ye raised his eyes and looked up. Wherever he looked, at the top of the mountain, two small black dots were acting out a moment of life and death.
A male human was grabbing the rock with one hand, and was tightly held by a female human with the other. He was crying, "Leave me alone!" "Let go" and "We will die together!" and the like.
A touching statement.
Master Shan visually measured the distance, immediately jumped up, stepped on the ground, and landed on a rock dozens of meters high.
At a distance of more than 100 meters, Shanye came up like a nimble antelope.
The two soap opera protagonists felt a dark shadow passing by, and then they landed on the top of the mountain again with a slight movement.
Nearly three meters tall, he has two thick arms, each holding a giant axe. His body is covered in a layer of fat like a cotton coat, and his head is bald, with no eyebrows or hair.
The left eye was covered with layers of fat and was basically half-blind. But the eye on the right was terrifyingly big, as big as a sea bowl, and moved flexibly.
At this time, the scarlet eyes as big as a bowl of sea were looking at the two of them up and down. Suppressing the surprise in his heart, Mr. Shan tried his best to look kinder: "It's okay, you are safe!"
Although this weirdo looks scary, his voice is very gentle and does not appear to be malicious.
The brother instinctively protected his sister and looked at Mr. Shan carefully. But the brave sister behind him stood up and expressed her gratitude to Mr. Shan nervously but clearly: "Thank you, sir!"
She didn't know how to address him, and the person didn't seem to be human. My sister recalled that when the mercenaries in the town called the mayor, they seemed to use "sir".
With a flick of his wrist, the two terrifying giant axes disappeared into his hands with a "sudden" sound. Regardless of the surprised expressions of the two of them, Mr. Shan sat on the ground and asked softly.
This is the hinterland of the Star Luo Empire, Shili Town in Puka Province.
It is located to the west of Huin Empire, about two months' journey away.
This closed town does not know much about the situation on the mainland. However, chaos has emerged in the Star Luo Empire, and many townspeople in Shili Town are discussing leaving the Star Luo Empire and migrating further inland.
Go to the Flower Empire.
In order to raise travel expenses, the brother and sister ventured to Jianji Peak to pick medicinal herbs and low-level magic materials. Unfortunately, the dangers here were far beyond what the brother and sister could handle, and that was how the scene just happened.
Shanye was in urgent need of clear and accurate information, so he chatted with the two of them for a few words and urged them to lead the way to Shili Town.
Shan Ye's ugly and deformed appearance would definitely cause panic among humans in normal times. But now the situation in the mainland is chaotic, and a large number of hidden races have begun to appear on the mainland stage. Therefore, when the three of them walked into Shili Town together, they just let
After a few more people paid attention, the guard saw Shan Ye's giant-like figure and immediately asked briefly about the situation before letting a few people in.
For today's human beings, as long as they are not half-demon, they are all friends!
The relatively tidy streets were filled with anxious townspeople who were passing by in a hurry. Everyone was discussing the topic of leaving the Star Luo Empire.
How to leave, how to leave, what to do with the industry? Where to settle, all need to be considered.
Now the half-demons are blocked on the southern frontline, but many small groups of half-demons have begun to appear in the hinterland of the Star Luo Empire.
Following the consistent pattern of burning, killing and looting, no one was left alive by the half-demon. Except for those women who were able to give birth and were kidnapped, the rest of the human race basically changed into something amidst the "hissing" laughter of the half-demon.
It became army rations.
Hotels, taverns, and shops are almost all closed, which makes Shanye a little disappointed. He originally wanted to inquire about the news and add some information about consumption in the forest, but now that supplies are in short supply, everyone has collected precious food and gold coins, and no one is there.
Selling grain or food at this time.
The sound of heavy horse hoofbeats slowly came from the post road at the entrance of the town. Soon, a large number of heavy cavalry in black armor appeared at the entrance of the town.
The armor, which is as heavy as overlapping feathers, is tightly fastened to the horse's belly, and the brand-new rebar horseshoes are a little heavy on the bluestone floor.
The patterned steel heavy armor, as black as silk, is engraved with several light body curse patterns. The lining is tough and soft horse shirt cloth, and the tendons are tied with horned rhinoceros thigh tendons soaked in lime water. White color
The double-headed eagle national emblem is particularly conspicuous on the dark armor.
The pure copper pedals lightly tapped the horse's belly, making a clear "ding-ding" sound with the stacked feather armor. More than 40 heavily armored cavalry tightened their reins and stopped at the only intersection out of the town.
Two pairs of expressionless eyes were revealed on the exquisite faceplate, and a heavy armored cavalryman exuding a frightening aura slowly emerged from the crowd.
His bright black eyes glanced over the crowd, pausing for a moment on the outsider Shan Ye, and then quickly withdrew his gaze: "Baron Will has an order, all townspeople are not allowed to go out, are not allowed to drive up prices, and are not allowed to close shops without reason." A stiff voice said,
With the addition of fighting flames, his voice was so rich and loud that almost every town citizen heard his voice.
After announcing Baron Will's order, the heavy armored cavalry's eyes fell on Master Shan again: "Outsiders must be examined, registered, and must gather at the camp outside the town immediately. Those who fail to do so within two hours will be regarded as rebels.
Drive or kill!”
Master Shan smacked his lips, and together with several outsiders who had just arrived in the town, came to the camp a few hundred meters away.
The animals were herded in an open space and waited for two full hours before Shan Ye and other foreigners were notified to register.
Waking up from Ru Yuan's space knowledge, Shan Ye shook his sore head and followed several humans to a small tent.
A registrar sat at the desk and asked coldly without raising his head: "Name, age, reason for coming to Shili Town, and when will you leave?" The tone was formulaic and efficient.
The first few people were hunters from nearby. When it was Shan Ye's turn, the registrar who had been writing at his desk finally raised his pale face.
Ordinary blue eyes, a little thin and wrapped with a bit of mean lip line, the outline looks a bit vulture.
Slowly leaning on the chair, he looked at Master Shan up and down with his gloomy eyes: "Are you a human? Or a hybrid of giants?" The voice was slightly muffled, and there was no hint of emotion or anger.
Mr. Shan frowned slightly, lowered his eyelids, and said slowly: "I am a human being, but I have some deformities. Is there any problem?". His voice was as calm as white water, making it impossible to find anything wrong.
The registrar suddenly slammed the table and shouted: "You are obviously a giant hybrid and the criminal who killed the eldest son of Baron Will!!"
Slapping the table seemed to be a signal, and more than thirty heavy armored cavalry immediately surrounded the entire small tent. The registrar stretched out his hand, grabbed a black epee, and roared with large red flames all over his body.
With a sound, he slashed hard at Master Shan.
Two giant axes appeared in Shan Ye's hands at some unknown time, and with a gentle move, they fended off the menacing Registrar.
Bent his legs and retreated, Shan Ye directly knocked away a black-armored heavy cavalry and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
Spitting out dust, the registrar got up in embarrassment, looked at Mr. Shan's disappearing figure, and said in astonishment: "So strong, so fast! This is inconsistent with the intelligence!"
Only then did the registrar realize that he seemed to be taking things for granted.
A heavy-armored cavalry rode up to the registrar, dismounted, held out his chest, and gave a military salute: "Sir, there were no casualties in this encirclement and suppression of the giant killer, only one horse was injured! Report completed!" (To be continued.
