Ark, Forced to Be the Spirit Behind Them

Chapter 48 The Strange Settlement

The next morning.

The temperature has warmed to ten degrees again. Compared with the extreme minus zero in the middle of the night, this contrast is too huge, and even the three of them squeezed into a small, very crowded sleeping bag and they are sweaty.

Wake up.

The three of them were a little tired, didn't sleep well at all, and even had some strange dreams.

Jessica dreamed that her face was pressed into a large ball of balloons, almost suffocating.

Franka, on the other hand, dreamed that her body was inexplicably unable to move, and a slippery thing similar to a snake was wrapped around her legs.

Razer, on the other hand, dreamed of being caught on the face by a face-hugging bug.

They simply ate something in the morning, and after packing up the tent, the three of them walked in the direction pointed by Xiao Ke yesterday.

"That little girl is still following?"

Franka asked tentatively, then turned around, and an orange-yellow figure at the back quickly shrank behind the tree. It seemed to be hiding well, but in fact, the large lump of weapon on the back was completely exposed. , a very unwise look.

"Isn't it a little pitiful to leave her here like this..."

After all, Jessica is just a little girl, she is very easy to be soft-hearted, and some can't bear to let such a cute little girl wander alone in this wilderness. Another reason... Her dog head is a little cute. Yesterday, RUA was addicted , if you can become a companion, you can RUA every day.

"We are not here to travel, and we are not philanthropists. We were born and raised in Bolivar. After we completed our mission, we returned to Colombia. It is impossible to bring her back to Colombia."

"呣~"

Although Jessica was very unwilling, Franka was telling the truth.

Everyone ignored her and continued to walk in the northwest direction.

of course.

Xiao Mo is also very obedient.

Along the way, she followed carefully behind a few people. As long as a few people turned around, she would quickly hide. Although she would be discovered every time, she would only come out actively during lunch, just like last night. Put your head out for everyone to rua and get some food.

It took most of the day, when it was getting dark.

Several people finally passed through this forest and entered the long-lost plain. Not far away, a small city appeared in the middle of the plain. This should be the place where Xiao Ke said there were many people.

This is a traditional city, not a mobile city-state, and the brick walls are not high enough to remind everyone of the ancient times hundreds of years ago. Compared with the extremely modern Colombia, this city is really backward and dilapidated. There are not even electric lamps for basic lighting, and traditional torches are used for lighting at the gates of the city. This can no longer be described as a city, but a small settlement.

due to damage to the vehicle.

Several people could not carry more food, and the barbecue grill and some relatively heavy meat could only be forced to be thrown in the carriage. Moreover, there were two meals in total, but Xiao Ke had already eaten the food in Franka's backpack. Seven, seven, eight, eight, now I urgently need to enter the city to supply supplies, and ask about the specific location here, not because I don't want to bring Xiao Ke with me, but...

can't afford it...

Maybe she can eat half a month's ration of everyone present in a few days.

At this time, I was very envious of Lu Ling.

The state of the soul, does not need to eat, is not afraid of starvation, is not afraid of freezing, and does not even need to walk by itself.

When people are far away from the forest.

different than expected.

Xiao Ke did not follow, but stood motionless outside the forest, watching everyone leave, then turned his head reluctantly and disappeared into the jungle.

"Alas..."

When he was about to arrive at the settlement not far away, Lu Ling suddenly noticed something was wrong.

In the soul state, he can see many invisible breaths that normal humans cannot see. This is one of the rare benefits of the soul state.

The settlement doesn't seem to be large.

But from the outside, it seemed to be surrounded by a circle of empty gray gas, giving Lu Ling a very strange feeling.

"What's the matter? Mr. Lu Ling?"

Franka turned sideways and looked at 'Jessica' beside her.

"This settlement is a bit strange, so be careful."

"kindness..."

Lu Ling's reminder made Franka and Razer tense, giving people a sense of being at the front of the enemy. Since Lu Ling said so, there must be a reason for him, while Magellan glanced at Jie suspiciously. Sika...

Who is Lu Ling?

It was not the first time she heard Franka shout like that along the way.

Jessica Cutie changed her name?

But no matter how you hear it, it's a male name of Dayan.

The four people and one soul carefully came to the door of the settlement. The settlement is not big, and it can even be described as a village, the kind that can see the head at a glance. The houses in the settlement are simple, all brick houses or simply wooden houses. There is a large vegetable garden at the door of each household to grow some of their favorite vegetables or something.

only.

But these vegetables wilted one by one, very lackluster, and even many plants were completely corrupted.

Terra's environment is very special.

In the wilderness, the temperature will be extreme in the middle of the night, but the place where people live is not so outrageous. In some places, even if it is only a hundred meters away, it may appear. One side of the night is dozens of degrees below zero, while the other side may be zero. On, this kind of strange enough temperature difference.

After the four outsiders entered the settlement, they were like a few stones thrown into the stagnant water that had been silent for several years, and ripples instantly rippled.

Many villagers looked at a few outsiders.

Some are afraid, some are curious, some are hiding...

There was only one white-haired Pelos girl who was wearing very ordinary clothes but looked very cute and came to the crowd timidly and asked nervously.

"Hello... Excuse me... who are you?"

ps: daily ticket request~~~

Chapter 49 A small moment comes~~ (4000 words)

The girl is called Bodenke.

She is a very cute-looking little girl from the Pero ethnic group, with milky white shoulder-length hair and a slightly rounded cute face. In terms of cuteness, she even matches Jessica's. Although she wears very plain and simple clothes. Color-based tops and long skirts, but this does not affect the little girl's temperament and appearance, but has a sense of sight of the little girl next door in the countryside.

According to her introduction.

A long time ago, in order to avoid the Bolivar war, a large group of people went all the way to this remote place to build today's settlements. Due to the lack of communication with the outside world, they even rarely communicated with cities in other places. The status quo of self-sufficiency has been formed.

And Bourdain has not left the village since he was born.

"Some peach blossoms smell."

Lu Ling muttered softly.

"Peach Blossom Spring? Mr. Lu Ling, what is that?"

Jessica asked suspiciously.

"An allusion, a group of villagers also discovered a world in a cave in a remote cave in order to escape the war, and then hid in it to live a self-sufficient and happy life."

"Wow~~"

only.

Taohuayuan is at least a wonderful place.

But it's not so nice here.

Corrupted vegetables are everywhere, and even if they are alive, they all lose their vitality as if they were hit by frost.

Although others are not as keen as Lu Ling's senses.

But at the moment of entering the village, observing the surrounding environment, you can also notice something wrong.

The plants are dead and there is not much vitality. Many villagers seem to have lost their minds and their expressions are numb. In this village, it seems that the old people who have lost their vitality are dying.

To avoid accidents.

Franka has quietly put his hand on the hilt of the Swift Sword around his waist, and Razer's hand holding the Flash Shield is also extraordinarily forceful and tense to deal with any emergencies that may arise.

Magellan said everything carefully.

She has traveled too many places.

Knowing that different places and customs are different, some words should not be said nonsense.

She once went to a remote tribe in Iberia, and the conversation with the local villagers was okay at first, but I don’t know what the words behind her angered them.

All of them simply call themselves explorers, and those who come to travel and explore, as for where they come from, they are all said to be Longmen.

After all... Longmen has a good reputation, at least there are no enemies outside.

And Colombia...

Bolivar is so chaotic now, half of Colombia's 'credit', if he says he is from Colombia, he may be beaten away by angry villagers.

at this point.

Magellan is very experienced, because she suffered losses in this area, and was almost burned on a cross at that time, where the angry villagers shouted some damn Colombian demons, while holding torches to "purify" Magellan.

The sun was about to go down when several people walked out of the forest.

After getting to know some things with Miss Bourdain again, the sky turned completely dark.

Surprisingly, the villagers here seem to be afraid of the dark sky.

When the sunset completely fell and the dark night was about to dominate, one by one hurriedly ran home in fright, and even the children who were playing on weekdays hid in fear, not only the door was locked, but even the windows were closed. It was tightly shielded with wooden boards, and any light inside could not be seen from the outside.

Bourdain's expression changed drastically.

Just when Magellan wondered what was going on.

Bourdain ignored the explanation and hurriedly dragged everyone back to his home, locking the door like the other villagers did, and sealing the windows with wooden boards, leaving no small gaps, only the old pendulum on the wall could tell the present Is it day or night.

"What's the matter? Miss Bordenko."

Magellan asked suspiciously.

"Shh~"
