Heroes of the City Edition

Chapter 18, Golden Light

Among the three farmers, the bearded man has the greatest strength, while the other two farmers are slightly different.Obviously, this world is not a game, and the arms in it are not standardized modules.After the farmers were sweating profusely from moving the stones, Cheng Kong was extra merciful and let them sit with him and chat.In fact, Cheng Kong didn't have the habit of being overly arrogant. As long as others were afraid of him, he was already very happy.Cheng Kong also learned a lot of common sense from this kind of chat, at least there will be no jokes about worrying about poisonous water when he saw the rainbow spring last time.The night was dark, and the stars in the sky were shining brightly.The last time I spent the night in the hazelnut forest, Cheng Kong was tired and scared, and fell asleep as soon as he collapsed. He had no intention of crossing the night sky at all, but this time, Cheng Kong was lying on the grass watching the starry sky with great interest.The starry sky here is much more spectacular than the starry sky seen on the earth. It is densely packed, and the stars are shining wherever the naked eye can see.And in the middle of the night sky, three full moons hang there, reminding Cheng Kong that this is not the earth.If it's not that he didn't bring his phone, Cheng Kong would have to take a few photos for safekeeping as a souvenir. Of course, if he showed it to others, no one would believe it.Um?Just when Cheng Kong was counting the stars and was about to fall asleep, he suddenly found that something was wrong with the stars in the sky.After observing carefully for a while, Cheng Kong unexpectedly discovered that some stars disappeared after flickering for a while, and never appeared in the starry sky again.Cheng Kong didn't get an answer to this question from Big Beard until he woke up the next morning.It turns out that the stars hanging in the sky are different from the stars seen on the earth. Now even children know that the stars seen on the earth are huge stars suspended in the universe, but the stars here are a kind of mysterious power It is causing the city to form a projection in the sky.To put it simply, if a star disappears in the starry sky, it means that the corresponding city is destroyed.As for what is going on and what is the principle, the bearded man has no idea. After all, he is just an ordinary farmer and only knows some common sense things.As the sun rises, the bright sunlight quickly drives away the night.Fortunately, there is only one sun in this world.After eating the hazelnuts that had been cracked open by a beard, Cheng Kong ran to the Rainbow Spring to replenish some water, and reactivated the lost luck effect by the way.After making these preparations, Cheng Kong led the bearded farmer and waited for the farmer to step out of the hazelnut forest for the first time, chose a direction away from Las City, and proceeded carefully to the depths of the wilderness.This can be said to be a gamble, a gamble with life, not to mention the dangers in the wilderness.If he stayed in the hazelnut forest, he might be able to be stable for a while, but at some point, the army from Hegra City would search for him. This kind of unsafe and stable life was not what Cheng Kong was after.If that's the case, Cheng Kong might as well not come in, go to work in a safe and secure way, and get enough food and clothing to some extent.Cheng Kong carried an iron fork and walked in the protective circle of the three farmers. Well, tax collectors also had weapons. In terms of quality, an iron fork made of all iron was much better than a dung fork with a wooden handle.But in order to ensure safety, Cheng Kong had the cheek to ask the bearded man and other farmers to form a triangle to protect himself. No matter if the attack was launched to Cheng Kong from front, back, left, or right, they would be intercepted by the bearded man immediately.Of course, if they can't intercept it, it's useless to escape.There are no roads in the wilderness, or it should be said that Cheng Kong and the others dare not go in the direction of the road at all. Any road is a link between two cities.Remember, it is not a castle, but a city!Castles are just cities built by humans. In this world, besides humans, there are many other intelligent species, such as swamp populations living in swamps, including lizardmen, poisonous flies, etc. They built The city is naturally called the Swamp City.There are also dungeons built by many underground races and so on.As for more intelligent species, the bearded man has never seen it before. Most of this knowledge was obtained when he listened to the bragging of the wanderers while drinking in the tavern in Las City.The bearded man knows that if it falls into the hands of humans, it will at most die. If it falls into the hands of other intelligent species, the end may be a bit miserable.Serving as food, hatching nests for cubs, raw materials for alchemy, extraction of souls, etc., even if you die, you will die unsafely.Leaving the hazel forest, Cheng Kong and the others walked all morning. Although they walked a little slower because they avoided some powerful beasts that might appear, they were safe at last.Cheng Kong didn't dare to lose the farmer at will, it was his only strength in this world.For now, if the three farmers were gone, Cheng Kong really wouldn't have the guts to walk alone in this wilderness.After walking this morning, Cheng Kong was sweating profusely from the sun, his mouth was dry, and he was a little hungry.Fortunately, there is no shortage of water sources in this wilderness. Even if there is no water source, the fruits of the various flowers and plants that are almost taller than the head of a person are rich in water. If you pick some at will, your throat will be moistened and your stomach will be filled. The only problem is Moisture content is too high.Cheng Kong continued on the road. After a while, when he passed a small river, he felt a little urgent to urinate, and then he opened his crotch and sprinkled it by the river.After urinating, Cheng Kong lifted his pants and was about to turn around to leave, but his eyes were flashed by a golden light in the distance on the other side of the river.Um?what is that?Cheng Kong didn't think that he was dazzled, but when he hesitated for a while, the golden light flashed a few times, with a sense of temptation.The resistance to temptation, to be honest, is not too strong. If the resistance is strong, you will not stare at other young women secretly while you are free.The main purpose of Cheng Kong's adventure to leave Hazel Forest is to improve his own strength. This is a very simple reason. If not, would Cheng Kong eat too much and risk his life to enter this alien world again?Obviously, that golden light was not an illusion.Cheng Kong led the three farmers to find a place with shallow water, waded through the water, pushed aside the dense thatch along the bank, and headed towards the direction of the golden light.As far as the scenery is concerned, the place Cheng Kong saw was full of beautiful scenery, with verdant grasslands, woods, and clear springs mixed in, slowly pouring into the small river.This beautiful scenery is hard for Cheng Kong to see. There is no human industrial damage here, and all the scenery maintains a perfect original ecology.However, Cheng Kong was not in the mood to look at the scenery at this time. After a few minutes of trekking, he and the farmer were already very close to the golden light.
