There is no doubt that staying on the edge of a living forest is undoubtedly a very nervous thing.

Although the living environment here is a hundred times stronger than the endless desert outside, when night falls, everyone in the team becomes extremely nervous, sitting around the campfire and enjoying the experience. Chowder soup made of famous plants and dried meat.

As a doomsday world where 80% of the surface area has been deserted, the vegetables and fruits here are 10,000 times more precious than meat.

Even those aloof and remote great characters may not be able to eat a meal of fresh vegetables and fruits, so everyone in the room could not help but swallow subconsciously when seeing the green color in the pot, Even if they have eaten some strangely shaped and well-hydrated green fruits before.

But the team leader obviously has some concerns. Not at all, he was anxious to start the meal. While stirring the spoon in the soup pot, he asked the boy without raising his head: “Luke, if you don’t mind, I can ask you. Wouldn’t it be that you want to explore this huge ruin in depth?”

“Why not? This is the capital of the strongest Great Empire in the past, and it is also known as the gift of the gods. The land of blessing. It represents the old world before the collapse of order to some extent, and has considerable research value.” Luke gently closed the shabby book in his hand, replied with a smile on his face.

If you say what is the biggest gain of this long journey across half of the continent, then you must first recommend all kinds of books and knowledge, complete or incomplete.

Through these words from hundreds of years ago, and even thousands of years ago, he finally has a clear understanding of this World and even the Darrente invaders.

To put it simply, this World was in the theocracy Peak before the arrival of the Darrentes. There were hundreds of deities with different names and titles, competing with each other for the faith of mortals, trying to establish A unified mortal kingdom controlled by gods.

But unfortunately, because of the inherent arrogance of the gods, no one will be convinced in the end. No matter how powerful the gods are, they use their personality, world outlook and values As the core, the group has added an alliance.

It is the composition of these alliances that lead to internal contradictions full of all kinds of strange things even at the moment of theocratic Peak. Even believers and believers are hostile to each other and fight each other, just for pleasing. The god he serves.

In the end, they paid a high price for their shortsightedness and ignorance.

When the Darrentes opened the Transmission Gate and swarmed, the city, which was contended by countless gods, was instantly covered by terrifying magical plants. It is said that except for a handful of spellcasters with powerful powers, All the rest, including the Imperial Family, failed to escape.

The original glorious and powerful empire collapsed overnight, and the rest of the place was surrendered under the fierce attack of the invaders, and died in battle.

It is said that a large number of treasures, as well as the large library that claims to have stored the most books in history, are still intact in a corner of this activated forest.

“Oh? Are you here to pursue knowledge?” The leader lifts the head with a surprised expression.

To know the barren planet right now, the most valuable thing is knowledge, and the least valuable thing is also knowledge.

Although it may sound contradictory, it is true.

The reason why it is said to be the most valuable is that due to the long-term aggression and squeeze of the Darrentes, many of the previously powerful magical knowledge and techniques have been lost, so now as long as anyone can find even A small part can get rich instantly.

But unfortunately, in addition to the knowledge that can create value, the rest of the humanities, geography, history, etc., are completely useless.

For example, the boy holding the book now only paid for two desert lizard kebabs.

“Yes!” Luke nodded seriously. “You know? Since the city’s destruction, even the Darrente invaders have not really set foot in it. I promise that the knowledge and wealth hidden in it far exceed the imagination of any one of you. It is like a huge Treasure, waiting for the brave to dig. How about it, are you interested in coming in with me? I promise, except for books, whatever valuable things you find will be yours.”

“Deep into the forest? Mud sure Isn’t this cracking a joke? Didn’t the daytime scene let you realize how dangerous it is?” Another woman beside her couldn’t help but interject.

“Danger is always proportional to reward. If you don’t take risks, how can you get an enviable harvest. Is it possible to walk through the desert without facing danger? No! Even if you are most familiar with it At the low end, robbers, monsters, and even giant sandworms may still be encountered in the desert. In this era of pain and despair, every second of life is an adventure. Since it is all an adventure, why not Take a big bet. If you succeed, you can live a comfortable life in the second half of your life. If you fail, you will be relieved early?”

Luke, as always, exerts himself in words and prying into others’ hearts. The advantages of the company, to encourage these few “cannon fodder” who have proven their worth along the way.

After all, although he has a very powerful magical power, he can even clear a safe road directly in the forest, but it is better to have a helper than no helper. At least he can sleep peacefully while resting. point.

“Hehe, I admit that your words touched me. But the problem is that there are too many visible dangers in this forest. I’m not even sure if you can safely go forward two hundred meters. “The experienced team leader laughed meaningfully, obviously not fooled easily.

Just when Luke wanted to speak and so on, a shrill scream suddenly broke the tranquility of the night.

“Ah!!!”

“Damn it! It’s Kanter!”

The woman who spoke before suddenly stood up and pointed out Look at the sound.

But unfortunately, her night vision is not good, and she couldn’t see exactly what happened in the woods.

About two or three minutes, a pungent bloody smell came from a distance, and at the same time, there was a rattling sound of blood dripping on the leaves.

“Everyone stay vigilant!”

When the team leader saw that the situation was not good, he couldn’t even look at the boiling soup pot. He pulled out his sharp sword and stared nervously all around. , Trying to find the attacker.

He knows very well what the scream and bloody smell just now means death and killing.

The team member named Kanter is now estimated to have become a cold corpse…
