"Refresh to watch in twenty minutes"
Xingwo, this is the name of a small town after the apocalypse.
The meaning is actually easy to understand. This place is dirty and messy. It may not be particularly ugly due to the weather, but it has gradually formed a lingering fishy smell. Once the wind on the ice sheet weakens, the fishy smell will spread to The whole town.
As for the nest... it's easy to understand. A dirty and messy place is not a nest or what?
But even in such a place, more than nearly ten thousand people still live here.
Because there are not only seven roulette branches here in the town and within ten kilometers around it, ranging from level 2 to level 8, but they are also behind a glacial lake and in front of the mountain peaks, so they will not be disturbed by ice storms. The glacial lake And in the mountains behind, there are enough mutated life forms for these evolvers to hunt.
Compared with the terrestrial lifeforms in the high mountains that appear and disappear in the ice and snow, more people in the Xingwo prefer to go to the ice lake to make a living, because there are many fish and shrimps in it that are not low in evolution level, but not very smart.
At the same level, they are easier to deal with than terrestrial lifeforms.
For example, there is a special product in this ice lake called a turtle. It is not a turtle, but a fourth- and fifth-level mutant life with a head covering half of its body and a hard shell about one meter long. It has hard and sharp teeth in its mouth. , and also has the ability to spray ice arrows with one hand. More importantly, it is a kind of social life. Under this ice lake, there are at least five groups of turtles with more than 10,000 members, and the remaining ones are thousands and hundreds. number.
In the middle-level life of the ice lake, they are overlord-level existences.
But this kind of fish, which is several times more powerful than the others, is very greedy, especially the flesh and blood of terrestrial life, and has an unusual taste.
So the evolvers in the fishy nest will use this habit of theirs to break the ice on the ice lake, and then use special fishing rods to fish. If the place is chosen correctly, the materials used are of high grade, the hooks are strong, and the companions cooperate It's good, and with a little bit of luck, you can catch seven, eight or even ten fish in one day.
This cold-water fish with delicious taste and excellent meat can provide sufficient energy and calories and is one of the best foods in the ice field. The half armor he wears is an excellent material for making armor. Other materials, such as fish bones and teeth, are also rare materials.
Of course, there are magic crystals.
At the end of the day, being able to collect enough magic crystals to spin the roulette wheel once is very attractive in itself.
Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that the evolvers of Xingwo would rather come to this vast glacial lake to fish.
It is the wide variety of life in the glacial lake that has nurtured the thousands of evolvers here.
On this day, just like countless other days, at dawn, there were evolvers coming out of the city wall one after another from the not-too-high Xingden to go fishing in the vast glacial lake in front.
The temperature at this time was still very low. Compared with Black Dragon City, it was at least ten degrees lower here. The evolvers covered themselves tightly to resist the severe cold that would never be seen in peacetime.
I don’t blame these people for coming out early. In fact, although the area of the glacial lake is large, there are only a few best fishing spots for turtles. If you come late, the spots will be occupied by people.
There were about a dozen of these evolvers, half of whom were wearing sleds, and the rest were sitting on two sledges, pulled by four mutant dogs with an evolutionary level of three, and they were moving quickly on the lake.
Soon, after an hour of investigation, these people found the activity site of a large school of turtles today and began to dig through the thick ice.
"This seems to be where Kafka's team stayed yesterday. It's only been one night and the ice is more than one meter thick. What the hell is the weather!"
An evolutionist complained as he pulled an auger bit out of the ice.
What he said was actually Chinese.
"Ajie, how many times have I told you that here, you have to speak the language here!"
An old man scolded the young man rather harshly.
He has a thick beard and his hair is dyed light red. Coupled with his already burly figure, if his skin was not so white, he would really look like a local here.
However, no matter what, it can't hide the face from the east at that stop.
If you look closely, you can see that most of the team are from the Eastern Yellow race, and the other three should also be of mixed race.
The young man named Ajie lowered his head and continued to dig holes in the ice, but his expression was a little angry.
"I know you are not willing, but to make a living here, you have to keep your tail between your legs. When a few of us evolve to six stars, we will leave and go south! Go to Black Dragon City!"
Many people showed happy expressions after hearing this.
They all dream of returning to the country.
Previously, because their evolutionary level was too low, it was impossible for them to trek long distances on the ice sheet. Any danger would cause them to die without a burial place.
"Dad, we have also spread a lot of news to Black Dragon City. Can't they send someone to take us back? I'm really fed up with the days when people here don't look like humans or ghosts, these ghost guys , don’t treat us as human beings at all!”
a young man asked, shaking his fist.
Because of their Eastern ancestry, they were bullied in this foreign land.
It was okay in peacetime, because with the protection of the law and the backing of a powerful motherland, they were doing business here, or coming here to study and travel. Apart from the different environment, there were no big problems.
But after the end of the world came, the gap between races and countries made them have a hard time every day. These businessmen, international students, tourists and even those who had settled here and had mixed descendants found that their differences The end of the world is infinitely magnified.
That huge repulsiveness almost shattered them to pieces.
They united, resisted, sacrificed, and compromised... they survived through hardships, but their number has become smaller and smaller. Now, there are only less than a hundred people from the country who are still living in the den. Apart from them, the others are another team who have been employed by a foreign chamber of commerce for many years. Their life is slightly better than theirs, but not much better.
A year ago, a team from the national area arrived here. They came from Black Dragon City and brought special products from the national area for sale. Although it aroused the covetousness of many locals here, after showing their strength, , which made most people give up their thoughts.
Some of them quietly found Dad and asked him to provide some news and materials, minerals, specialties, etc. to Black Dragon City. Black Dragon City would give them a certain amount of compensation according to the value.
For example, the head armor of the turtle fish is the main material needed by Black Dragon City.
Every three months, someone from Black Dragon City would sneak over and pay to take these things away from Dad and the others.
The strength of Dad's team has improved rapidly over the past year, which has a lot to do with this secret business. Now Dad's evolution level has reached level five, and the other two are also level five. For example, Ajie and others have also reached level five. It has reached the level of four stars. In Xingwo, this level of evolution has already reached the middle reaches.
With strength, life is slightly easier, but this is also the result of deliberately keeping a low profile, so that those powerful foreign organizations try not to notice them.
"Pick us up? What achievements have we made? Just give them a little turtle's head armor? They paid for it! Protecting us is easy to say, and sending people over to buy our things only requires one or two good ones. That’s enough, but to take us away, you need at least six or seven people of the same strength! It doesn’t cost anything to use these experts?”
After hearing what Dad said, everyone fell silent.
Dad is very prestigious. Many people in the team have been saved by him and are usually taken care of by him. Most of the credit for the evolution potion belongs to dad. This title is more like a thank you to this old man.
Since Dad said so, that's what it is. Black Dragon City will indeed not send people to protect them from leaving without any reason.
They...have not shown the value of making people willing to send out escorts.
"But..." Dad chuckled, causing everyone to focus on his face, knowing that the old man they regarded as their father must have something to say.
"There was news from Black Dragon City a few days ago, saying that someone will come to me recently and need us to be a guide to take them to Yakutsk. As long as this matter is completed, they can provide me with a bottle of six-star Evolution potion!”
"real!?"
As soon as everyone heard that they stopped doing the work in hand, they gathered around one after another, and everyone's eyes were bright.
Being a guide is actually rewarded with a bottle of six-star evolution potion? This is too good.
"Dad, I heard that something seems to be happening in Yakutsk recently. If we go, will there be any danger?"
Ajie said worriedly.
Yakutsk is not too far from Xingwo, but the road between it is not easy to walk. In the middle, you need to pass through the famous ice crystal swamp, and there are several territories of powerful mutant life forms. Not many people in the entire Xingwo dare to go there. .
With their strength, they would not even take risks.
"They are just serving as a guide. They are not asking us to fight. They can pass through the ice field from Black Dragon City to here. They are strong enough. There must be something going on when they go to Yakutsk. If there is danger, they will take action. It should be okay. .”
After hearing what Dad said, other people also thought this was the case. In the last days, nothing is risk-free. Let’s just talk about fishing for soft-shell turtles. Although we have a lot of experience and mature methods, there are also dangers. Once you can’t grasp the direction of the rod, the fish will bite you. With his body pointed at the evolver, the terrifying ice arrows may kill people at any time.
Even fishing is dangerous, so what’s the point of being a guide? Besides, giving a six-star evolution potion at once is what everyone dreams of!
