Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland.

Chapter 590: Changes (Combined Chapter)
The team set off.

On the withered grass hill, the buried wolf's fur is deep red, as if it has merged with the entire earth, and its mane and long grass flutter in the wind.

The bee-man soldiers on the wolf's back sat upright, like pine trees and flags, because they were just strolling.

The herdsman Kone led his pack animal a little uneasily and looked around.

He had never thought that he would be traveling with wolves in his lifetime...

"Woo~"

Cone: “!”

He was startled by a bone-burying wolf that suddenly approached him.

Fortunately, the wolf did not move, but just sniffed him with a hint of doubt and curiosity.

"It seems to recognize you. Logically, it's impossible..." The person riding on the wolf's back happened to be Qi Ke. She thought for a moment and said, "Are you from the Far Traveler Clan?"

"That's right." Cone responded quickly.

"That's right." Qi Ke said with a smile, "This bone-burying wolf was trained by a trainer from your tribe."

"Is that so?" Cone was somewhat surprised and delighted. "The Farstrider Clan has produced another animal trainer. Who is he? Are they... okay?"

"It can also identify some smells, which means that the trainer is your close relative." Qi Ke touched the wolf's head and pulled the reins to slow it down. "So, you are little Dib's uncle, right? I have heard him mention it."

"Dib?" Cone was stunned.

He hadn't expected this.

In my memory, my nephew was just a kid before I set out... Although children are often considered immature in the eyes of adults. But it's been less than two years, and he's already able to help tame giant wolves?
"Haha... from the perspective of a tamer, he is still a little unqualified," Qi Ke judged from his professional perspective, "but he woke up early."

Little Dib did have the advantage of his age, unlike the animal trainers from other tribes who were usually big and strong and not heavy enough to ride the Bone-Burying Wolf.

He can travel on the wolf's back like a pendant, following the unskilled bee riders, and can help control any emergencies at any time.

For this reason, it is quite popular among the new Wolf Cavalry recruits.

And after witnessing the Red King's heroic figure commanding the Zerg Legion, Dib Farstrider seemed to have a goal of his own. He specialized in practicing animal taming and was extremely hardworking... Even Qi Ke, who was equally talented, had to admit that this little fellow, who had experience training with the Bonebury Wolves, was growing up quite quickly.

The future prospects may be more than this.

"As for the Far Traveler Clan..." Qi Ke was quite moved when she thought about the changes in this small tribe in Shemxi when she heard the other party ask, "They... you Far Travelers contacted the Skinners in the swamp and established an outpost trading post. The first step for the materials transported from the swamp is to pass through the Far Traveler tribal camp."

With the current rapid construction of flash land, there is a huge demand for logistics turnover.

Even if it is just providing some basic services, the income generated by people stopping for a while is far more than before. All kinds of trade opportunities also have priority, and the goods are dazzling and countless.

The Far Traveler Clan is at the very edge of Shem, and close to the border in the west. In the past, they were often harassed and exploited by sand bandits, and there were not enough good pastures for grazing... Now, this geographical location has become their advantage, as it can become the first stop between the swamp and Shem.

Think back to the beginning, even the most ordinary guild caravans were unwilling to stop at the traveler camp; or even if they stayed, they could only get some inferior goods discarded by the big tribes, but even so, they still treated them as treasures...

Now we can only say that the location has reversed.

Chief Parada still believes that his decision to be the first to express his stance to the Red King was absolutely the right one... He even feels that this might be a major decision that he will never have the chance to make again in his lifetime.

It almost changed the fate of the entire tribe.

Of course, the changes in the future of this small tribe are just a small ripple in the tide of the entire era - Qi Ke has a deep understanding of this.

"That's great..." Cone's voice trembled slightly as he sighed. Even if he only heard a few words from the other party about the changes in his hometown tribe, he felt extremely excited.

As a representative of the travelers, I led a caravan of pack animals to travel thousands of miles across the wasteland of bones, risking being attacked by beasts, avoiding highway robbers, and finally enduring the discrimination and contempt of the city-state guards... all for the purpose of exchanging more coins and the tribe's scarce supplies so that my family can live a good life... even if it was just a hope.

The result was unexpected.

He made this long journey.

The goal that was originally far away is about to be achieved, as if it is within reach.

It's countless times better than before.

It's a complete change.

"Master of the Shanye Clan...Okay, I won't be so unfamiliar with you anymore." Seeing the other party's gesture, Cone changed the topic and said, "Sister Qi Ke, why didn't little Di Bu come with you?"

After knowing that they were all one family, the beast trainer of the Far Traveler Clan was no longer so reserved. Even when he looked at the ferocious-looking Bonebury Wolves around him, he felt that these puppies had kind eyes and gentle manners - after all, under the command of the Red King, they were no longer ferocious beasts that devoured people and killed people, but instead became a force to protect themselves.

Then he asked a question of concern.

This time, Qi Ke did not answer directly, but smiled mysteriously: "That little guy can't always be with the wolf pack. The Bone Burial Ground Wolves don't need anyone recently...'They' have other work to do."

After saying this, he flicked the reins again, drove the Bone-burying Wolf under him forward, caught up with the front of the team, and took the lead again.

Leaving Cone confused:
"Other work..."

In the distance, dozens of tall orangutans were tied with long ropes behind a pack of wolves, walking forward in a disjointed manner across the vast grassland.

Rest time, camping.

The magnetic needle rotated in the compass and finally stopped, but the deflection was quite large. The Tech Hunter closed the lid on his wrist, looked at the dark clouds and stars in the sky, and followed the direction pointed by the faint moon: "We are almost there..."

Luo Mi patted his head and said, "We are following behind them... Don't they know whether we have arrived or not?"

Liu Si smiled and was not angry.

He was looking at the direction of the Land of Revenge.

From the Land of Revenge to the east, the natural magnetic field of a large area will be affected, making it extremely difficult to determine the direction in the wild. Even for technology hunters, it is a big challenge to explore the ruins in these places.

"It's better to rely on yourself than on others," he said.

"In that case, let me help you take a look." As Romi walked, he climbed up a tall grass hill, unloaded his arrows, raised his crossbow, and looked out over the horizon through the eyepiece on the fuselage.

Normally, this pair of partners Lius is knowledgeable and careful, while Romi is a little nervous. But in terms of combat positioning, Lius is a close combat frontline, while Romi is a sniper with very steady hands and patience.

In this regard, Liu Si once joked that this was because the enemy never read books and had good eyesight; while his own eyes were damaged by seeing things, he would not be scared by the blood splattered by the enemy.

"How is it?" he turned and asked.

But there was no response.

"Huh?" Liu Si looked at his companion holding a crossbow, standing there in a daze as if frozen, and couldn't help but push him.

"...Look for yourself." Romi turned his head suddenly and pushed the crossbow in his hand into Lius's hand.

Just for a moment.

Liu Si saw the shock in his companion's eyes. He imitated him and slowly looked into the eyepiece: "What's this..."

Then, the sound stopped.

As night falls, the stars dot the dark sky. All you can see are the weeds common on the grassland, showing the desolation of late autumn. This scenery is just like looking out at any other time, and people don't care at first.

However, through the eyepiece.

On the barren land, there was an abrupt city wall that directly caught Liu Si's eyes. It was so tall that it seemed to be connected to the night sky, and if you turned your eyes, it extended to both sides with no end in sight.

If you use high-precision equipment to get closer, you can see: the beautiful blue bricks and stones have not been eroded by time like other buildings in the wasteland, and they look brand new and young; the adhesive between the bricks is not like cement, but a special unknown material. They are so red in the moonlight that they seem to be dripping with blood, mysterious and indestructible.

This is a huge newly built building.

A man-made wonder.

"One..." Liu Si finally recovered his breath, put down the crossbow in his hand, and slowly said: "The Great Wall!"

Like a barrier, it divides the distant grassland, the sky and the earth, this world and the other side...all into two.

Without the aid of the eyepiece, only a small bulge could be vaguely seen. If one did not look carefully, one would think it was an extension of the mountain range... Liu Si's eyesight was indeed not good enough, and it was at night, so he almost did not notice it.

However, at this moment, neither of the two technology hunters would ignore it - right in front of them, there was a seemingly endless high wall, with a brick and stone structure on the surface, rising from the ground.

What kind of feat is this?
[The Great Wall of the Red King].

To be honest, during the journey, the technology hunters had already asked Seto Qike and others about the previous beast disaster. While they were amazed, they also paid attention to the method that Lu Beiyou used to deal with the group of beasts.

Build a wall.

This is not considered very clever, because everyone can think of a solution, but the real difficulty lies in how to implement it and how to do it.

What is needed behind this is huge manpower and material resources... and the authority and organizational power to mobilize all of this.

They heard that even the legendary Red King's Great Wall that was said to have stopped the beast scourge was actually just a temporary earth wall - and the fact that it could achieve this was already a miracle.

But, this cannot be considered eternal after all.

Not to mention being able to cope with a few animal disasters...even if it lacks maintenance, it may collapse under the wind and sun for a few years.

Therefore, although Romi and Lius admired it, they did not have high expectations for what they would actually see in the future - as technology hunters, they had witnessed too many ancient relics, and it was difficult for the new creations of modern civilization to shock them anymore.

As a result, this expectation was shattered by the scene he just saw.

"Isn't this an illusion?" Romi smiled awkwardly, "A mirage or something."

Lius didn't respond to the joke.

Even if it is a mirage, it means there must be a solid entity in the distance...the result is still the same.

It is hard to imagine that such a solid Great Wall, roughly estimated to be several meters high, could be built... even with the help of the original terrain.

As for a building like this, even if there is another beast disaster, even if the next one comes with elder-level beaked beasts, I am afraid they will not be able to break through.

Where is the promised earth wall?

The project is huge.

Material resources, manpower... time, and key design techniques and coordination capabilities... Liu Si pondered, these elements are indispensable.

The wind blew over the city wall.

Worker bee Warman leaned against the iron handrail, admiring his own masterpiece.

Behind him, there was a soldier bee standing sideways, dressed in ronin's clothes, looking free and easy and open-minded.

"The wilderness is vast, the wasteland is endless; the new wall rises from the ground, towering; the bricks and tiles are neat, the rust is still new..." The worker bee smacked his lips, "How about this poem? I just thought of it last night."

"Not as good as Mr. Bud's one point." Diu answered honestly.

"Tsk." Wurman curled his lips, "You let me compete with him."

Then he continued to hold on to the fence and shook his head, muttering something.

The anti-slavery ronin Diu found this scene amusing and helpless: it was the first time he had seen someone so fanatically obsessed with the wall itself.

If you say something bad about the wall built by the worker bees, they will definitely get angry with you...even war-level face will not work.

In the distance, construction work is actually still in progress, and only half of the reconstruction on the basis of the original earthen ramparts has been completed, which is mainly the part adjacent to the Revenge Land.

Looking at the back of the head of the engineering department, Diu, based on his relationship with the other party...he believed that if Woman could, he would not be happy to just watch from the top of the city wall and enjoy the fun of designing, but would definitely get down to work directly.

However, this worker bee had just sprained his waist while moving bricks not long ago...The reason he was holding on to the handrail was because he couldn't stand up without it.

Just don't go back and lie down.

It can be said to be quite fanatical.

Suddenly, in the distance, there were bursts of long howls, which were the long roars of wolves.

However, the people on the city wall were not panicked at all... All the Boneyard Wolves that could be found on the land of Shan had been "recruited", so it was impossible for them to be a newly appeared wolf pack... or it was better this way.

Immediately, the enemy's searchlight came on.

Send out a flashing signal.

"They are back." Diu said. With his perception, he had already noticed it.

"Just in time." Wurman held his waist and hummed a few words, "I'm short of 'manpower' here again."

Looking down at the city.

Among the people who were carrying bricks and stones and building the Great Wall, there were not only members of the engineering department and laborers recruited from various tribes... the most conspicuous were some animal trainers.

This is quite surprising.

However, they did not do it themselves, but each used their own animal taming methods.

Under the orders of their trainers, countless tall, white-furred figures were working honestly. Apart from being unskilled, their movements were no different from those of humans. They were even stronger and progressed faster.

unbelievable,
They are white-beaked gorillas.

"Oh oh..." The largest of them, the Beaked Ape, which was already a giant beast in the elder stage, made a helpless sound.
