Chapter 499 Mountain People

After a hurried escape, Lawrence fled from the desolate snow-capped mountains to a place where he could see green grass.

The temperature here is no longer freezing. Although there is still a little chill in the air, it should be much warmer if we continue walking down the hillside.

Lawrence looked behind him, where there were only the dark shadows of the mountains.

At this time, the moon is already thin, and a large number of stars can be seen, which is beautiful.

"We've lost our food and supplies, and it's already dark. Let's find a place to get some food first."

Lawrence walked down the stream. It didn't matter if he didn't sleep for a day. Now there was no need to go to the mountains. He only needed to find food and have a full meal, and then head towards home.

Thinking about going home, Lawrence quickly started running all the way, using the fastest speed to look for animals that could not sleep at night and came out to drink water.

After running for half an hour, there was no such luck. Lawrence could only slowly walk down the river and found a forest to rest and sleep.

The trees here are mainly birch and cedar, and there is nothing edible.

Instead of wasting energy looking for food that won't fill your stomach, it's better to sleep peacefully and wait until tomorrow to get home in a day or two.

No matter where it is, this is a large animal.

This is a classic case of how barbarians who were still in a very primitive era scared off a big wild boar ten years ago.

Now even if the Geomaniac comes out, Lawrence doesn't bother to care about it as long as it doesn't hinder Lawrence's sleep.

They can only quickly master things they are interested in, and they cannot learn things taught by others.

The wild boar was over two and a half meters tall and three to four meters long, almost as big as a single toilet in Lawrence's home.

After sleeping for another two or three hours, Lawrence, who had long been accustomed to the sound of falling trees at the lumber camp, did not open his eyes to look at the big wild boar, even when the surrounding trees were broken by big wild boars looking for food.

Wild boars are much smarter than ordinary domestic pigs, even smarter than dogs like Gale, but they are lazy and learn things slowly.

Even for the earthly violent bears, there are Clodagh bear hunters who specialize in hunting such bears, which can eat them for half a year and produce various weapons and armor materials.

The ones who hunt this kind of big wild boar are the geomantic bears that are more than seven meters tall.

A fishy smell woke Lawrence up. Lawrence opened his eyes and found a wild boar looking for food standing near a tree more than ten meters away.

Half an hour of running was already Lawrence's biggest attempt. If he continued to try, he would lose more than he gained.

Lawrence quickly came back with the spear, sat next to the big tree that was still warm, and continued to sleep.

Last night, Lawrence was still thinking about hunting down a prey and having a full meal. Now, Lawrence just wanted to sleep and was too lazy to even light a fire, let alone cook any more.

The big wild boar also had certain wisdom, not to provoke the man who exuded a dangerous smell, and consciously avoided him for more than a hundred meters.

Soon the wild boar noticed that Lawrence had woken up, and one person and the other pig began to look at each other.

Lawrence judged that this was a young wild boar. An adult wild boar can grow to more than five meters tall and seven to eight meters long.

The wild boar had discovered Lawrence's presence very early, looking for hazelnuts and berries in the woods, and then looking up at the man.

After resting for a while, the sky soon brightened.

The savages of ten years ago had basically no prey to fear, except for the violent geomantic bears.

The big wild boar quickly turned around and ran away like a frightened little pig.

Lawrence frowned, picked up the spear in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Get out!"

Lawrence continued to sleep after daylight, replenishing heat in a place where the sun could shine.

Lawrence's plan was to sleep until noon, and then run directly towards home when the weather improved at noon. This would save a lot of energy.

In a daze, Lawrence heard many random sounds.

At first I didn't notice it, it didn't feel like the movement around me.

Later, the sound became louder and louder, accompanied by the roar of a killing pig. Lawrence opened his eyes and touched the iron spear at hand with one hand.

The iron spear was no longer cold, and under the sun's rays, it felt warm to the touch that had not been seen in the past few days.

Lawrence stood up from the ground and walked towards the forest in the distance. Behind the obstructive and disorderly growing trees and shrubs, there were several old dead trees that fell down. The trunks looked like they had been gnawed by pigs, full of holes and bite marks.

Lawrence continued walking forward, following the marks of pig trotters and excrement to find the battlefield ten minutes away from where he slept.

In the place between the woods and the grassland river, a huge wild boar fell there, oozing a lot of blood, and a group of people wearing animal skin clothes, holding stone spears and wooden guns were gathering near the belly of the big wild boar, but These hunters were not facing the mountain boar's belly, but were looking at themselves with vigilance.

A young female hunter found Lawrence in advance and quickly pointed a spear at Lawrence.

The other hunters were also watching the dangerous-looking man with vigilance. Not far away, there were hunters helping the injured man to the rear.

Lawrence looked at these people. These people either wore hats like him or had long hair. It was unclear whether they were humans or elves.

There was the smell of blood in the air, and Lawrence found that his perception was still too weak. If he were a witch, he could smell the blood in advance and find the location in advance.

"Who are you?! What are you doing here?!"

A woman with a fierce face stared at Lawrence and yelled loudly, as if she wanted to kill someone.

Lawrence had seen some women like this before, but at that time she was not facing herself, but her enemies.

Not all women will show weakness when facing enemies. Some women will unceremoniously show their ferocity and violence to intruders.

Lawrence found that what the other party spoke was not Luofin or Elvish, but more like the language of Candice's dark elves.

However, the Kingdom of Stars has always prohibited others from speaking foreign languages ​​on the territory, and few people in Lawrence's family speak foreign languages, which makes Lawrence unsure of his own judgment.

"You hunted my prey." Lawrence tried to synchronize with these people.

These people can hunt wild boars without dying. Even young wild boars must rely on special people, so there should be extraordinary people among them.

Lawrence said with a cold face: "This big wild boar is my prey."

The mountain people looked at the man who spoke a strange language with unkind expressions, and soon the young woman who was the first to spot Lawrence said, "You said this is your prey? That's impossible! Whoever kills it belongs to the same person!"

Lawrence found a witch who could talk to him, "It seems you don't understand whose territory this is. This is my territory, so the prey here is also mine. You poached my prey, but you didn't thank me."

The ferocious-looking woman and the others all looked at the woman in her twenties, and at the same time looked at the man with cautious expressions.

Amanda sensed the cowardice of her companions and shouted angrily at Lawrence: "You said this is your territory? Nonsense! You are not an elf at all! You are a human! A barbarian that exudes a dirty and barbaric smell!"

Lawrence smiled, and for the first time someone told him his barbarian ancestry.

"Then solve the problem the barbarian way."

Lawrence stopped smiling and faced a dozen hunters with an iron spear emitting cold light.

"I am the king of the mountains, Lawrence Crowfeather!" Lawrence raised his spear, "If you don't believe it, you can come forward and try it, and use your blood and tears to prove your stupidity!"

Amanda gritted her teeth and looked at Lawrence. The others were also filled with indignation and wanted to kill this arrogant barbarian.

Lawrence looks young, but his appearance of twenty-two or thirty years old is enough to intimidate the others, especially because he is physically strong and equipped with armor and weapons several times better than those of the warriors in the clan.

Amanda quickly made a leader's decision, "Give him the meat and let's go!"

The woman next to her said anxiously: "Amanda! He is alone!"

Amanda said calmly: "The wolves will also give up prey. This is not shameful. We can also find other prey. There is no need to compete with him. This pig can feed him for many days."

Amanda had already made a decision. This person couldn't take away too much meat. When the time came, she could just take the rest of the meat back with her.

If we fight this dangerous man now, many people will definitely die. This man is obviously a stronger wizard than him.

Lawrence smiled and said: "How far is this place from the Green Forest Kingdom? Are you forest witches who escaped from the south, or are you the Agama mountain people who have been here all along?"

Amanda looked at Lawrence angrily, "Why are you asking this?!"

Lawrence maintained his victor's flirtatious smile and said, "Answer my question and I'll give you the pig."

"It was originally our prey!" Amanda said stubbornly, and then quickly softened her tone and said: "You ask, I can answer your question."
