Ark's Journey to the Demon God

Shen Muke nodded and looked back: "That big box, what's in it?"

It was a huge box about the height of a person, wrapped in heavy alloy, with a spell unit on the surface, and could only be opened with a special key.

Because the box was so big, the scholars had to take turns carrying it along the way.

"Um..." Professor Thorne was a little wary. He glanced at Shen Muke calmly and found that his expression was normal, as if he was just asking casually.

"Some experimental samples are packed in large boxes because there are a lot of them."

Shen Muke nodded and remained silent.

If you know the answer from the beginning, there will be no disturbance.

He could guess that it contained the blue source stone sample that was the culprit that caused the death of Professor Thorne and his party.

There are different opinions on what the original sample is in "The Walking of the Dust", what kind of technology it represents, and what kind of plot analysis video it is in.

Shen Muke believes that this should be an energy carrier similar to nuclear fusion or nuclear fission. However, no matter how you put it, it is very important.

For selfish reasons, Shen Muke certainly hopes to obtain this technology. If he had this technology, wouldn't his goal be better achieved?

However, in the end, conscience overwhelmed greed, and he suppressed his desires.

Robbery is not his style. If possible, he still wants to talk after Professor Thorne and Elliot have overcome this crisis.

Shen Muke lowered his head silently, and then suddenly his eyebrows lit up——

He leaned down suddenly and plucked a small piece of grass with thick leaves from under his feet.

"What's wrong? Agaritu?" Thorne and others stopped and looked at the plant in Shen Muke's hand.

"Look at this! Brother Thorne, you must have never seen it, right? Hehe, I know a little knowledge about herbal medicine and recognize this plant. It's called sand grass. It only grows at the intersection of sandy land and woods. Moreover, only Only Sargon would have it!”

"What do you mean?" Professor Thorne became a little excited.

"We are going out!"

Chapter 15 Crocodile Tribe

Mountain darkly, vista.

20 days, a full 20 days of rainforest exploration, almost exhausted the Sage team. They marched numbly in the rainforest, and all they could see were the trees and hot flashes of the rainforest.

But now, Mr. Agaritu, who was leading the way, said, are they going to go out?

The men and women in the team immediately became excited. They ignored their backaches and even forgot about their fatigue. They put their luggage on their backs and rushed forward like crazy.

One step, two steps.

The leaves in front of you gradually become sparse, and the light in front of you gradually becomes brighter!

After crossing the dense forest, after tens of meters, it suddenly became clear.

wilderness.

The vast wilderness is mixed with streams and weeds, sand and shrubs, and in the distance, wisps of smoke rising at dusk can still be seen vaguely.

Although it is approaching night and the sun has already set in the west, the dusk light still makes everyone excited. The breeze blows, although it is dry, it is still so comfortable.

The group of people jumped up and down excitedly, and some emotional researchers even shed tears. What a hardship they had gone through. Traveling through the rainforest was no ordinary thing, and they were already proud of it.

"Thank you, Agaritu. If it weren't for you, we would still be chewing leaves in the forest." Professor Thorn came over and held Shen Muke's hand.

"There's no need to thank me, brother Thorne. I just did what everyone in the wilderness would do. In the wilderness, people should help each other, right?" Shen Muke said with a smile.

Professor Thorn nodded, and Shen Muke then reminded: "The top priority now is to get our companions to replenish some fresh water and food as soon as possible. Although we are out of the rainforest, we are still some distance from the Ibat area, so replenishing supplies is essential, and , and also asked the members not to get too excited... Excessive mood swings in a short period of time will lead to a decrease in immunity, and if you are not careful, you will become seriously ill."

Shen Muke's worries are not unreasonable. From a medical point of view, there is a high possibility of falling ill directly after overexertion and severe mood swings.

Moreover, when the Sage team arrives in Ibat, they will still face unknown dangers.

Professor Thorne nodded, then turned his head and looked at his students...

whoosh-

The sound of breaking through the air suddenly came, and Professor Thorne could barely see a cold light running towards his students. However, he only had time to open his mouth and remind loudly...

call--

A gust of wind made Professor Thorne's clothes rustle. He was blinded by the rising dust. When he opened his eyes again, he saw Shen Muke standing in front of Elliot.

"Agaritu! Elliot!" Professor Thorn shouted, and shouted loudly at the same time: "Enemy attack! Everyone be on guard, we are under attack!"

A group of people suddenly broke away from their joy. They took out hand crossbows and short knives. These are the tools for these researchers to protect themselves, because without professional security, they can only rely on themselves.

They formed a circle to protect the luggage and instruments, as well as Professor Thorne and others.

Elliot was suddenly attacked. At this time, he was a little confused. He looked at his teacher blankly. Professor Thorne ran to him and asked urgently: "Are you okay? Elliot, are you injured?"

"I...I'm fine, teacher. Mr. Agaritu protected me."

A pair of teachers and students looked at Shen Muke and saw a rough wooden arrow in his hand.

[Legend has it that Casimir’s knights could catch up with flying arrows. 】

Professor Thorne looked at Shen Muke in surprise, this mysterious traveler who claimed to be from Casimir. How many surprises did he have?

"The arrow is very rough, and it is not made of steel... It is iron... or very rough iron." Shen Muke held the arrow in his hand and briefly analyzed: "It is not an official weapon from Sargon, nor a mercenary... It’s a tribe, we are being targeted by a nearby tribe!”

Before he finished speaking, a crashing sound sounded from all around, and dozens of crocodile men disguised in leaves emerged from the dense bushes.

The leader is a fit girl Adaklis, wearing a cloak made of leaves and vines, and her clothes are more tribal style (very revealing). She holds a long bow in her hand and slings on her waist. quiver.

"Did you shoot that arrow just now!?" Shen Muke let go of his voice and shouted loudly in Sargon dialect.

The other party was obviously stunned, obviously not expecting these foreigners to speak their language.

Shen Muke smiled and raised the arrow in his hand, waved it and said loudly: "It's amazing! You shot accurately, and thank you for being merciful just now!"

Just now, everything happened so fast that Professor Thorne and Elliot didn't see the specific situation.

The moment Shen Muke caught the arrow, he discovered it.

The arrow flew very fast and was very powerful. It was obvious that the archer was very skilled.

However, the direction of the arrow was towards the cloak behind Elliot.

This was certainly not a mistake, but a deliberate miss.

Since the other party has shown mercy, Shen Muke will naturally retaliate.

However, his conversation surprised Professor Thorne and others.

How come Mr. Agaritu knows everything?Can you even speak the local dialect of Sargon?Isn’t this too erudite?

Shen Muke's attitude was very good, which eased the tense atmosphere between the two parties, and also made the girl put down the bow in her hand.

"Strangers, where are you from?"

"East, we come from the east."

"Impossible! You lied. How could you possibly cross the rainforest?"

The girl shook her head. In her opinion, the rain forest was full of dangers, so she did not believe that Shen Muke and his party could pass through the rain forest unharmed.

Shen Muke shrugged and said: "Although it is unbelievable, we came out like this... By the way, this girl, can you let us leave? We have no ill intentions, we just want to go west..."

Shen Muke's attitude was already very good, but unexpectedly the girl opposite shook her head and raised her bow and arrow again: "No, you broke into our hunting ground and violated our rules. I will take you away to see the chief." !”

This…

Shen Muke was helpless. Professor Thorn came over and asked, "Brother Agaritu? What did she say?"

"She said that we broke into their hunting ground and violated their rules, so she wanted to take us to see the chief..."

"How can this be done? How can we have time to argue with the tribe here?"

Professor Thorne shook his head, this is really an unreasonable disaster.

"Girl, can you be accommodating? We have no malicious intentions and we didn't break in on purpose. Please let us go."

"That's not possible!" The other party shook his head and said, "You can't leave until you get permission from the chief!"

"This…"

Shen Muke spread his hands helplessly. He looked at Professor Thorne and whispered: "She doesn't want us to leave... why don't we run!"

"Run? How can you run?" Thorne whispered.

"After a while, I will ask Mei Jin to clear the way for us. When they start to cause chaos, we will take advantage of the chaos and run to the west!"

Shen Muke twisted his hands. He had [-] ways to escape easily. However, the time had not yet come and he was not suitable to reveal his true strength, so he could only use this method to escape.

The girl waved her hand, and a group of tribal hunters surrounded them, and the circle gradually tightened...

It's now!

"Meijin!" Shen Muke shouted loudly. In the sky, a swift figure was wrapped in the strong wind and swooped down with a scream. The target was the Adaklis girl.

The girl subconsciously raised her bow to block, but Meijin was very strong. It almost snatched the longbow away in one glance. At the same time, it flapped its wings and circled around the tribal hunters!

The fierce collision between the wind blade and the condor caused the hunters to fall into a brief chaos, and the girl who gave the order also stood there because her long bow was released.

"run!"

Professor Thorne shouted, and the Sand Soldier team took big strides. They carried instruments and boxes and ran towards the west. However, after running a few steps, Professor Thorne who was walking in front was forced back by several arrows. In place.

In front of them, hundreds of Adacris appeared.

They all carried spears and bows, and the leader was an old crocodile man holding a cane.

The old crocodile man's status seems to be very high, and all the crocodile men follow him loyally, like stars holding the moon.

it's over

, the rightful owner has arrived, and now he can’t leave at all.

Professor Thorne's face was dark, and he was already thinking about what price he would have to pay to escape.

How about we give them the medicines and the camera we brought with us to make amends?

"Father!"

Sister Adaklis shouted, ran to the crocodile man dressed as a chief, and then started to operate with words and gestures.

Because the distance was relatively far, Shen Muke, who had no use of his divinity, could only barely hear some of the content.

They are all words like messengers from the sky, warriors, etc. I don’t know what they mean or what they mean.

However, after the old chief heard his daughter's words, his expression relaxed unexpectedly. (Although it's hard to say what kind of expression the crocodile man can have, but it just feels soothing)

The old chief slowly walked up to Shen Muke and looked at him and the condor on his shoulder.

It wasn't until Shen Muke felt a little hairy at the sight of him that the old chief spoke, his voice old and warm:

"Outside warriors, please forgive my daughter's rudeness. Everything is Hapuche's prank... Please don't blame me."

What is Hapuche?

Shen Muke was a little confused, but the change in the old chief's attitude was worth celebrating. He greeted politely, and then said: "Then, Chief, can we leave?"

"Of course! Of course. It's just..." The chief looked at the tired team of soldiers behind Shen Muke. He stroked his chin and said, "Your companion looks very tired... he must have eaten a lot in the rain forest. They are lucky not to be targeted by Ischel, but hunger and fatigue still hang over them... Do you want to come and sit in our tribe? We can provide you with food and water."

Oh~(￣▽￣~)~

This is really, a surprise.

Shen Muke turned around and said to Professor Thorn: "Brother Thorn? This chief wants to invite us to sit in the tribe and prepare some food and water for us."

"This...it's okay..." Thorn hesitated. He took Shen Muke's hand and said, "But why did their attitude change so quickly? Isn't it a trap?"

trap?

Shen Muke looked at the chief in front of him, and then at the crocodile men behind him.

Their eyes are very similar, and they all reveal a kind of clarity and stupidity unique to the Akahula region~

Can such a person still lie to others?

Shen Muke laughed dumbly and said with relief: "Don't worry, Brother Thorne, they most likely don't have this condition."

"what?"

Shen Muke waved his hand, walked to the chief, bowed slightly and said, "Then let's thank you for the invitation first, Mr. Chief."
