In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

No trace was left behind.

When Maria opened her eyes again, she had arrived in Yan Country again.

It’s just that the Yan Country at this point in time is between the Yan Country she visited not long ago and the real Yan Country.

It is a very delicate time point.

At this moment, she seemed to be in a vast farmland.

In the distance, you can vaguely see many people bending over to farm.

"Are you alright, Hunter?"

The puppet's voice came into Maria's ears.

She was a little worried about Maria's health.

For them, this is a rare opportunity for them to actively use their abilities.

When she traveled to Yan Country before, she was considering whether Maria's body could withstand continuous travel - this was not because she was worried that something would happen to Maria, but she was worried that being in different times and places too much would make Maria's mind confused for a while.

But obviously, her idea was a bit redundant for Maria.

"I'm fine, doll... do you know where this place is?"

Maria shook her head, stood up and slowly walked towards the crowd.

"Feel sorry."

The puppet's voice continued, "I can't teleport to a specific location yet... As for your current location, you may need to figure it out yourself..."

"fine."

Maria shook her head, not thinking it was a problem.

Soon, Maria bypassed the wilderness at the edge and gradually walked into the track and field.

The people who were working diligently nearby soon noticed this outsider.

They straightened their backs and looked over here with some surprise.

"girl!"

An old man who was approaching shouted at the top of his lungs, neither hurried nor slow.

"Why are you here?"

"Ok?"

"This is the experimental field area. Outsiders are not allowed to come in."

The old man kindly reminded Maria.

Maria blinked in confusion.

"Experimental...Tanqu?"

"Hmm? From outside?"

Maria's puzzled expression made the old man understand something. He wrinkled his face and smiled.

"It was just arranged this year. I think they've been researching some new seeds, but we don't know the yield yet, so we've mapped out a spot to plant them and try it out."

"These seedlings are so delicate... It's okay if you just look at them, but don't touch them."

The old man reminded them a few more times, then buried his head and continued to work.

Maria watched for a while and then continued to act.

But she seemed to be thinking about what the other person said.

After walking for a while, her steps gradually stopped.

"Strange taste..."

She whispered, looking down at her feet.

With her powerful body and terrifyingly sharp perception, Maria could clearly feel the strange aura on the ground beneath her feet.

That is... a breath that does not belong to a human...

"Umbilical cord?"

Maria hesitated, then slowly squatted down on one knee, reached out her hand, and grasped a handful of soil.

The soft black soil exudes a unique smell, like burnt straw. While it makes people dizzy, it also gives them an inexplicable sense of comfort.

But Maria keenly sensed something unusual in it.

With her terrifying perception, Maria almost instantly discovered the delicate crystal hidden inside.

Originium?

No, not really.

Compared to the Origin Stone, this thing is more like...

Umbilical cord?

As she thought about it, Maria's brows relaxed slightly.

For her, discovering the umbilical cord was not scary; what was scary was not knowing where it was.

Now that we know there's an umbilical cord in this area...can't we just come and retrieve it ourselves?

While thinking about it, Maria slowly stood up.

Not far away, a little girl with two pigtails came jogging towards them.

After seeing Maria, she was not afraid of strangers. Instead, she stared at her curiously for a few seconds.

"Sister, what are you doing?"

"..."

"Are you hungry?"

The little girl's thoughts were not too complicated. She just looked at Maria with a smile and said, "If you are hungry, I have some bread at home... Sister, do you want some?"

The little girl openly expressed her kindness to Maria, and her words made Maria figure out exactly where this place was...

"This... is the Great Wasteland City?"

"Yeah? Sister, don't you know?"

The little girl was a little strange.

Maria has come here, how could she not know where this place is?

Maria just shook her head.

In the Yan State era that she was familiar with, food was not in short supply, but it was definitely not abundant either.

This is related to the men's continuous conquests, but it is not the absolute reason.

The main reason is that the area, population and arable land of Dayan do not match.

Any civilization that wants to develop needs population, and a large population requires food... Food requires arable land, stable weather and location, and good seeds.

This was actually a major problem that troubled Yan State at the time.

Fortunately, at that time, due to the benefits of continuous conquests of giant beasts, many things could be temporarily suppressed. However, Maria could also foresee that soon after she left, after the conquest of demons and evil spirits was over, Yan Country would fall into a difficult transition period.

In this situation, being able to casually invite strangers to one's home for dinner...it seems that only that city called Dahuang can do this...

Maria has always been curious about the wilderness.

It's just that due to various reasons, she has never had the chance to come here and take a look.

I didn't expect that I would arrive in this way.

I have to say, it's quite subtle.

"So, do you know the purpose of opening up that so-called experimental field?"

Maria spoke again, questioning the little girl.

But the little girl just tapped her lips, looking confused.

What is this older sister talking about? It's so hard to understand...

"That's right...you're just a child..."

Looking at the girl's confused look, Maria was stunned for a few moments before coming to her senses.

What do you say to a child?

They don't need to care about these things...

Maria nodded slightly as she thought about it.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need food... Where is the highest-ranking official here?"

Maria decided to go straight to the person who could make the decision and ask what was going on here and if there were any unusual movements...

After all, even if the umbilical cord has no consciousness, it will actively affect the surrounding environment... Maria doesn't want this place to change because of her actions.

The girl understood this question.

"This way, this way..."

Immediately, she waved her little hands and began to lead Maria.

The two men also walked across the field.

The crisscrossing track divided the field into grids of various sizes and shapes. As the two walked by, Maria felt as if she had seen wheat's life.

From seedlings to adults, from ear formation to yellowing...

Step by step, they move towards the last period of their life cycle.

The wind was pushing them, squeezing and shaking each other.

And in this swaying golden field.

A figure, in a trance...

"Sister Shu! Someone's looking for you!"

The little girl made trumpet shapes with her hands and shouted with all her might.

Her voice also startled the woman who was working hard in the field in the distance.

The woman in casual clothes also stopped writing in the notebook in her hand and turned her head with some surprise.

The wind blew past her body, and naturally blew the body of the black woman in the distance...

Then...

She was stunned.

Her tall and straight body was covered with aggressive hunting clothes. When the breeze blew, it would gently lift her white hair and gently pat her stunning face.

The gray pupils looked at this side calmly, and the pink and white lips looked extremely gentle.

The sharpness of combat and the softness of women appeared on one person at the same time!

This made Shu completely stunned.

But compared to these, another feeling suddenly blocked his chest.

Have we... met somewhere before?

It was difficult for Shu to describe what he was thinking at this moment.

She could only feel her emotions starting to stir.

She stared at this side blankly, her body unconsciously moving closer.

"Sister Shu?"

The little girl looked at Shu with confusion, not quite understanding what was wrong with him.

When the girl's voice was heard, Shu realized that he had already stood in front of Maria...

One hand even touched Maria's face!

this? !
