Chapter 965 Door-to-Door Delivery
Although we travel by flying and resting for a while, traveling for a long time will still make people feel tired.
Especially Hertha.
After arriving in the New World, she has been to the wild many times, but her physical fitness cannot be improved quickly in a month or two.
Not only compared with hunters, but also compared with those mature investigators, there is a big gap.
The pain in the left arm joint used for hanging the hook lock is bursting, which is a symptom of muscle strain.
However, Herta didn't even notice this. Her attention was completely attracted by the magical desert in front of her, which was completely different from any other area in the Old World.
There was no sight of yellow sand filling the sky and dunes everywhere as expected.
Countless strange-shaped wind-eroded giant rocks, as well as those tower-shaped ant mounds that can be seen everywhere, are the absolute protagonists of this wasteland.
It is hard to imagine how much effort and patience those transport ants, which are no bigger than a human palm, have to put in to build these giant ant mounds like small hills in the wasteland.
When everyone flew through a long and narrow canyon winding between huge rock platforms, a signal came from Mr. Monroe.
The pterosaurs began to land, and finally landed on the edge of the inconspicuous canyon.
After giving the pterosaurs a signal to let them rest and hunt, Munro waved to everyone.
“Follow me.”
Gordon and others followed Monroe for a while, and then saw him climbing on a bush of dry land vines and descending into the small canyon less than ten meters deep. middle.
Herta had an accident while climbing the vines. Her left arm was a little strained and strained. Her arm came loose and she almost fell. Fortunately, Hayata beside her reached out in time to help her, which prevented her from falling.
"Sorry, I was the one holding me back. Thank you for your help." Heta, who had gone down to the small canyon without any danger, thanked Hayata with some shame.
“Don’t worry about it.” Hayata smiled and waved her hand, and then said to Pig Chop: “Pig Chop, check Herta after we get to the camp. She may have a strain.”
"Okay."
"The camp will be here soon." Mr. Monroe adjusted the bag that was larger than his whole body, turned around and said: "It's right in front."
This was the time when the sunlight was strongest in the afternoon, and everyone who was blinded by the glare could not help but speed up their pace.
It is a narrow cave located on the rock wall of the canyon. The location is quite hidden. There are vines hanging down from the entrance, so you can climb in.
Several people entered the cave one after another. Inside was a large grotto. The top of the grotto was not completely closed, making the interior cool and well-lit.
Deep in the cave, there is a clear pool, and the undulating water surface proves that this is still living water.
“This is the central camp in the Great Anthill Wasteland. Although it is still a little far away from where the attack occurred, it is already the closest camp.
When people from the investigation team come to the Big Ant Mound, they often come to this camp to camp and rest.
There is also a camp located in the southwest forest belt, which is the closest to the Star Stronghold. "Monroe briefly introduced everyone while unloading the huge backpack behind him.
Gordon and others also unloaded dry food and other supplies and stored them in storage boxes in the camp. .
"It's already afternoon, and we rushed to the scene of the incident to investigate. How about taking a good rest today and starting the official operation tomorrow? "The experienced orc scholar is seeking everyone's opinions.
"Of course. Gordon pinched his chin, "When I landed, I saw an oasis nearby. I went to see if I could catch some prey." ”
Monroe nodded, "I'll go with you. Occasionally there will be Detel from the wasteland guardian clan around here.
If you are lucky enough to encounter them, you may be able to find out something about those strange faces. "The situation of the clan."
"Then I will stay in the camp." Hayata said with a smile.
Hetta pursed her lips, she knew that Hayata stayed to take care of her.
This made her feel even more like a burden.
After Gordon and Monroe left, Pork Chop asked Herta to take off her coat and examined her left arm like a professional doctor, "It's a strain, luckily it's not serious."
Don't do it again today. If you work hard, drink some recovery medicine, eat something nutritious at night, and then have a good sleep, I'll be fine when I get up tomorrow morning."
"Thank you."
Waiting aside, Panlan was like a violent nurse, pushing the recovery medicine bottle into Herta's mouth, "Drink the medicine. "Meow!"
"Cough cough cough" Hertha coughed as she almost choked.
Hayata came over with a smile, pulled the skin of Pandan's cheek, and then helped Herta, who had difficulty moving her left arm, put on her coat.
"Gordon should come back later with a lot of meat. Do you want to go first and lie down in the tent for a while?"
"You don't have to take care of me that much." The self-respecting Herta smiled bitterly. .
She stared at her slender arms with no muscle lines for a while, then looked at Hayata, "Is there any way to quickly grow muscles?"
"Huh?"< br>
In the evening, Gordon and Monroe returned.
They brought back a fat elf deer and many edible fresh cacti.
Hayata and the others also lit a bonfire early and even set up a barbecue grill.
“Are you so sure that we will come back with meat?” Gordon unloaded the elf deer at the waterhole and asked while skinning and cleaning it.
Hayata rolled his eyes, "If you can't find a suitable prey, the Cephaloceratops will probably remove its tail and drag it back."
"Hehe."
Gordon smiled and threw the offal that was not easy to handle into the pool. He was not afraid of polluting the water source. This pool was living water and there were many fish. Not long after the offal fell into the water, They were all scrambled for.
“There are a lot of fish, but you guys didn’t catch a few?” Gordon’s question was about Pig Chop.
“I caught meow.” Pig Chop licked his paws, “But it has been eaten by a certain pig meow.”
“You are the pig meow!”
Pork Chop and Pandan started arguing again, and the entire cave camp became noisy.
Hayata fixed the processed elf deer on the grill with a smile, and a smile appeared on the face of Heta, who was in a low mood.
Everyone gathered around the bonfire, grilling and eating, and the aroma of the heated fat was wafting.
An elf deer weighing dozens of kilograms was completely eaten by four people and two cats.
After eating and drinking, Gordon and others wanted to go out for a walk. It was said that the night view of the Big Ant Mound Wasteland was unexpectedly beautiful. However, considering that they still had business to do tomorrow, they went to bed early.
They will stay in the Big Ant Mound Wasteland for at least a few days, so there is still a chance.
The time went into the middle of the night.
A sneaky figure sneaked into this quiet camp silently.
It is not tall, less than one meter, with a stooped body, but its limbs are very similar to humans. It wears a giant mask on its head that is half the size of its body.
This is a strange-faced creature.
Different from those close relatives that breed in the Old World, its skin is bright red, and it doesn't look as skinny or even a little chubby like the odd-faced people in the wilds of the Old World.
It gently walked around Gordon, who was lying on the ground motionless, and came to the golden sword with inscriptions lying flat on the weapon rack.
“Gaba ugh!” the Qimian tribe cheered in a low voice.
Stretched out his hands to lift the sword with the inscription, but the sword did not move at all.
"Gaha?" The Qimian tribe moved their limbs, held the hilt of the inscription sword with both hands, and raised it up with all their strength.
After a lot of effort, it finally lifted it up a little bit.
But before it could be happy, a sneer came from behind.
"Oh."
The strange-faced tribe turned around stiffly.
Two hunters and two Ellu with fluorescent eyes were surrounding it, staring at him.
"Hehehehe. The clues are delivered to the door." (End of this chapter)
