In order to avoid Lacey's pursuit, Chen Xing risked his life and traveled all night, marching for more than thirty hours before stopping to rest on the second night. I encountered many living corpses and mutated creatures on the way, but fortunately the intensity was not too high and they were quickly resolved.
Everyone was so exhausted that they fell down to sleep without setting up a tent or eating anything. Cassie had the best energy, but also looked lethargic. After drinking coffee several times in a row, I finally regained consciousness and stayed awake for the first round of the night.
As the group leader and the strongest combatant, Chen Xing naturally did not need to keep vigil. He used an oil lamp to boil some hot water, soaked some compressed biscuits, ate some, and then got into the tent to sleep.
Two days later, the team walked out of the ruins of Wangchuan and entered the junction of the fourth and thirteenth districts. Along the way, I met an expedition team composed of several exiles. These people are called "box hunters." In order to control the number of mutated creatures, the World Council airdrops supplies in areas one to four every three months to lure the exiles into entering.
The airdropped boxes contain gold coins and weapons, as well as various evolution potions and medical potions. Each box is worth approximately four to eight thousand gold coins. Although the inner circle is dangerous, there are many exiles who are not afraid of death under the temptation of high income.
When the box hunters saw the group of masters, they immediately stayed away. There were no dangers along the way, and on the seventh day, the team finally arrived in District 6.
Zone 6 is located in the south of the continent, closer to the center line of the planet. Coupled with the humid monsoon from the ocean, the rainfall is larger, so the vegetation is thicker than other places.
However, the vegetation here is all low mutant plants. In addition to black moss, there are also grey-red shrubs covered with sharp spikes and green ferns with large leaves. Some carnivorous plants are hidden in the dense vegetation, ready to deliver a fatal blow to passing animals.
Among them, "virgin grass" is the most famous. They are covered with burrs and even the leaves are covered with fine needles. They can move slowly and usually curl up into a ball to hide themselves. Once they find prey, their small branches and sharp leaves will roll up to catch the prey tightly. The sharp blades cut open the skin of prey and suck their blood.
This process will be very long, just like the "iron maiden" in the ancient torture device, taking away the life of the prey bit by bit and causing great pain in the process.
A teammate accidentally fell into the trap of virgin grass, and a group of people chopped with long daggers for more than ten minutes to rescue him. The whole body was covered with needle pricks and it was too horrible to look at. But fortunately, apart from the pain of the flesh, there was no serious problem.
Chen Xing, who had many years of mercenary experience, asked everyone to tear up a set of military uniforms, wrap strips of cloth around wooden sticks, and dip them in kerosene to make torches. Most carnivorous plants are afraid of flames and can effectively avoid their attacks.
"Quack!"
After climbing over a mountain, a beast's cry came into my ears. Following the sound, a green-skinned flying dragon soared into the air from the bushes. The fleshy wings flapped, making a "whooping" airflow sound. The bulging eyes rotate and the pupils are clearly visible, very similar to a chameleon.
"Quack quack quack quack quack!"
Immediately afterwards, several beasts roared, and green shadows flew out of the bushes, following the first one. Looking closely, there was a person sitting on the leading flying dragon. The man held the reins in his hand, and the reins were put on the dragon's long mouth. With a pull of both hands, the flying dragon flies upward.
"Mr Qin, I want to ride a flying lizard and become a lizard knight!" Cassie shouted excitedly.
The flying dragons soar into the sky, forming a "human" formation like wild geese, flying into the afterglow of the sunset.
Before dark, Chen Xing and others followed the flying dragons to a place surrounded by wires. Wooden signs hung on the rusty barbed wire fence read "Feilong Ranch, please go around the main entrance" and "Private places, no destruction" and other words.
Following the direction of the sign, everyone walked around for more than ten minutes and arrived at the main entrance of the ranch. Heavily armed mercenaries were patrolling around. When they saw Chen Xing and others, they showed no hostility or enthusiasm. They seemed to have become accustomed to it and had no special reaction.
"Are you staying here or discussing business?"
At the gate, a female mercenary carrying an assault rifle came forward to ask.
"We want to buy a flying lizard, the kind with wings." Cassie rushed to say, and used her hands to demonstrate the flying movements of a butterfly.
The female mercenary was amused by Cassie's appearance and said with a smile, "I have to remind you that things here are not cheap."
"We have the ability to pay, so let's lead the way." Chen Xing said.
"plz follow me."
After a while, the female mercenary took Chen Xing and his party to a huge thatched shed. The shed is made of bamboo with a thatched roof, but the decoration inside is not simple. The floor is covered with unknown animal skins, exquisite small oil lamps are hung everywhere, ornately embroidered fabric sofas are arranged in a "hui" shape, with a terrazzo coffee table in the middle. The coffee table is filled with various snacks and fruits.
After sitting down, a butler in a black tuxedo came to the shed with three maids, and poured black tea for everyone one by one.
Their movements were very skillful and their etiquette was in place. It was very different from the environment in the Black Death Continent, as if they had returned to a civilized society. Perhaps because he recognized Chen Xing's identity as the group leader from his attire and temperament, the housekeeper assigned a good-looking maid wearing a red plaid skirt to serve him.
"Where's the flying lizard? Where's my flying lizard?" Cassie kept grabbing the old housekeeper and asked. The old housekeeper smiled and saluted, signaling him to calm down.
"Sir, do you need to relax?" the maid whispered in Chen Xing's ear, a little timidly.
"How to relax?" Chen Xing looked at the maid up and down. She was curvy and in good shape.
The maid's face immediately turned red, probably because she saw that Chen Xing had misunderstood her meaning, and then she went around to the back of the sofa and rubbed Chen Xing's shoulders.
Chen Xing touched his nose in embarrassment. Ever since he met Aaliyah, he felt a little hot and unknowingly thought wrongly. No matter how good the service is, it is impossible for everything to come before the business is concluded. If you encounter a poor guy, it will be a huge loss.
"Miss, please come this way. The two-headed dragon king you ordered will be delivered next month."
An account manager wearing a black dress led a young girl into the lobby.
The girl was about seventeen or eighteen years old. She was dressed very hotly and was not affected by the cold air of early spring at all. She wears a white sports vest on her upper body and a leather suspender skirt on her lower body. Her exposed thighs are as white as snow, making people unable to take their eyes away. Wearing long leather boots on his feet and leather motorcycle gloves with holes on his hands, he exuded a sense of wildness.
However, when Chen Xing saw the girl's appearance, he couldn't help but frown.
The girl has a signature pink peach heart tattooed under the corner of her left eye, and a row of small silver rings on her ears. They make a crisp banging sound when she walks, and her two ponytails are beating, full of youthful vitality.
The girl also saw Chen Xing and froze immediately. After about a few seconds, the girl reacted and yelled: "Liar!"
While cursing, she rushed up and kicked Chen Xing. Chen Xing's strength has greatly increased now, and he is completely different from half a year ago. With the sofa behind his back, he jumped up and grabbed the girl's kick.
"Let go!"
The girl didn't break free, but realized that her skirt was exposed, she blushed and shouted, "You bastard, liar, let go, or I'll beat you to death!"
"Ye Yang Qingyan, are you done yet?"
Chen Xing shouted sharply. Although he had lied to her before, the little traitor turned against him and gave Leandre an excuse, almost killing him.
"Asshole, liar!" Ye Yang Qingyan became emotional and was unwilling to give in even though she was at a disadvantage. During the Chinese New Year this year, Ye Yang Bailiu returned to the family and gave her a pocket money of 100,000 gold coins. She was planning to buy a two-headed dragon king to play with, but she didn't expect to meet Chen Xing here. They were really enemies.
"Sir, don't hurt her!" Seeing the conflict between the two, the account manager hurriedly advised, "She is our distinguished guest, the second young lady of Ye Yang's family in Gray Corner City. Her sister is the great healer of the Red Dragon Principality and the North Bridge Regiment. We can’t afford to offend the deputy commander!”
Chen Xing refused to let go, grinned at the account manager and said, "She is my sister-in-law, and I am taking care of the housework."
"Who is your sister-in-law? She is shameless, a gangster, and a dead liar!"
The account manager looked at Ye Yang Qingyan and then at Chen Xing. Judging from the reactions of the two people, it really doesn’t look like it’s fake. If you are an enemy, you should go back to find the followers instead of rushing to deliver food yourself. So, the account manager quietly stepped aside and let them handle their "household matters".
