Chapter 74 The Giant’s Sorrow
At the entrance of the cave on the hillside, rat people were frequently coming in and out in small groups, cautiously exploring the outside.
The space-time channel has been closed, and I don’t know when it will be opened again next time.
In order to survive, these rat people had to plan ahead and search for food and water sources in this strange world to eat and replenish the energy needed for work.
Among the ancient and steep mountains, Ye Xing, in his bestial form, used the protruding rocks on the surface of each stone peak to jump and chase the three giants who were traveling together.
In doing so, he can take full advantage of the stone peaks as cover to avoid the giant's bow and arrow sniping attacks.
The shrunken Lani stood on top of Ye Xing's head, holding the pair of bull-headed demon horns with both hands, and reminded Ye Xing of the footholds with the highest mortality rate.
After experiencing the giant's sneak attack, Rani also became more alert.
She has been using her "death ruling" ability to look at Ye Xing's various future death scenes and issue warnings in reverse.
Although the effect of "Monster Embrace" to increase attributes and reduce charm is still there, as Lani has seen more of Ye Xing's animal form, she is now gradually getting used to it.
There will be no disloyalty or betrayal due to loss of charm. The only drawback is that the tone when communicating with Ye Xing is not good.
In front of the stone peak, the three giants put down their weapons as if having a dinner party, and each occupied a direction of the stone peak.
They put their rough and thick palms close to the stone wall and scraped off the dark green moss growing on the outside of the stone peak from top to bottom.
Finally, these giants balled up the moss mixed with mud, sand and rain, threw it into their mouths and chewed it carefully, as if they were tasting the supreme delicacy.
"Hungry~"
The thinnest of the three giants opened his mouth and yelled at his companions without saying anything.
"Especial!"
The strongest giant raised his arm and slapped the giant named You on the face.
The slender giant You was knocked to the ground by his companions, and the turbid pool of water instantly stained his pale back skin into tan.
The giant You silently picked up his stone shield and stone spear, and said to the strong giant in a low tone: "Luo."
The giant known as Luo ignored Yu, the weakling's apology to him.
He held up his own stone spear, which was stronger and thicker and had a spearhead made of polished metal, and pointed solemnly in the direction of the giant Meng who had shot a huge stone arrow at Ye Xing.
"Buck, Mon!"
"Mon!!"
The two giants puffed up their chests and responded loudly.
The three giants picked up their weapons and strode towards the center of the stone forest where the giant Meng was.
This scene was clearly seen by Isis, who had been flying in the sky.
Ye Xing, who gradually caught up with the giants, arrived at the low stone peak that was stripped bare by the three giants.
Ye Xing stopped and looked up at the conspicuous and clean scratches left by the giant on the stone wall.
It can be seen that those giants are short of food now.
Although most of them are in a state of hunger, Ye Xing is still very powerful, with rough skin and thick flesh.
The way of communication between giants is very concise. When they communicate, they mostly use one or a few words to contain most of the meaning.
I just don’t know when these giants will rest.
For giants in the waking state, with their willpower to eat earth and grass, Soma's miracle "dream whispering" may not be able to take effect.
Ye Xing approached the foot of Shi Feng, dug out the remaining dark green moss with his claws, and felt it carefully. Although these mosses grow in extremely harsh environments, they contain very strong vitality.
Although each moss is small, if accumulated, it is enough to sustain the activities of the giants.
Through miraculous "guidance", Ye Xing went to the leader of the purple-nosed rat tribe and issued instructions to collect the moss growing on the stone walls, and strictly ordered the rat tribe to keep the moss active.
When they can return to the world of "Four Elements No. 1", they can make sacrifices to the gods to obtain the favors they have sent them.
Ye Xing does not intend to train Gaia and the others into gods who are obedient to the prayers of believers.
He prefers to use Gaia and the others as mission NPCs that fulfill the rules of "equal exchange". Believers can obtain it after pleasing the gods by holding sacrificial rituals, sacrificing rare treasures, or performing tasks assigned by them. Divine grace.
Ye Xing himself would naturally take these mosses to Gaia, Moses, or the Insect Nest for research and analysis.
But with magical moss like this, the more the better.
In front of the stone forest where Giant Meng is located.
Through Isis' vision, Ye Xing saw the giant whose lower body was integrated with the stone platform, maintaining a sitting posture with his head lowered, and the ridiculously exaggerated giant bow beside him.
He immediately decided to get Isis back.
At such a close distance, if the giant casually threw a stone at Isis, who had turned into a female eagle, it would probably seriously injure her who was unprepared.
Female eagles are much larger than male eagles and are easier to target.
After receiving Ye Xing's order to come back, Isis folded her wings and quietly landed on the horns of Ye Xing's bull-headed demon after turning into a beast.
When she and Lani looked at each other, Isis suddenly stretched out her eagle beak and gave Lani a small peck on the head of the little doll.
Then she flapped her wings triumphantly and flew up, calmly dodging Rani's counterattack.
Ye Xing did not stop the little fight between them. Isis had been flying alone in the sky before.
Not only did she have to closely monitor the movements of the giants, but she also had to tighten her nerves to be alert to possible attacks at any time.
After following her all the way, she was quite suffocated.
Isis quietly landed back on the demon horn above Ye Xing's head, and quietly poked her head out to look in the direction of the three giants.
The gentle airflow gently lifted Ye Xing's body off the ground, carrying him forward silently.
The three 18-meter-tall giants knelt down on one knee towards the dead ancient giant Meng who was sitting on the stone platform, expressing their highest respect for this ancient senior who had always protected the giant race.
The earth trembled, and countless gravel and dust fell from the surrounding stone forest.
Ye Xing looked at the evenly cracked rocks scattered around the stone platform, and his pupils shrank.
He finally understood where the huge stone arrow came from. It was exactly the tall and majestic giant on the stone platform who pulled out the stone pillar near him and shaped it into the shape of the arrow with his bare hands.
Those three giants, 18 meters tall, looked like children in front of this ancient giant with his head lowered.
"Heavenly Father, the giant on the stone platform seems to be dead."
Lani climbed up to Ye Xing's ear softly and whispered.
Even though she saw that Giant Meng was dead, she still did not dare to speak loudly because of the murderous aura and majesty that remained in his body.
