The night is like water, the bonfire is burning, and the wood makes a popping sound.
Bulma sat on the stone, holding mushroom broth in both hands, her pretty face glowing red by the bonfire.
"Umo's parents were forcibly taken away to join the army when he was a child. When he came back three years later, the only news was that both his parents were dead.
The war took away many things.
Noya, Umo, and I are also orphans who lost their parents in the war.
Originally, there were only three of us in the Green Teeth Mercenary Group.
Only later, we met Dashi Ershi.
When they were very young, the village where they lived became the battlefield of an encounter between the Daluo Army and the Southern Xinjiang Army. They witnessed their parents being trampled to death by war horses. They were mentally stressed. From then on, they became stupid. Not only did their intelligence stop.
At the age of six, and even now, they are often awakened by nightmares in the middle of the night.
When we met them, they were deceived by a sinister boss into working as hard labor in a kiln without enough food, clothing, or wages.
Wumo saw that Dashi and Ershi were pitiful, so he took them away and has been taking care of them until now. The war..."
Bulma, a young girl from southern Xinjiang, raised her head and looked at the stars in the sky, murmuring to herself.
"The war really took away a lot of things."
The flames of the bonfire flickered.
Soon after, Umo came back. After eating, he went back to the tent to sleep with Oishi Ershi and another girl Noya.
By the campfire.
Only Li Guanqi and Bulma were left sitting side by side, whispering.
This night.
He talked a lot with this southern Xinjiang girl and almost stayed up all night.
From the other party's words, Li Guanqi almost had a general understanding of the situation in this strange world.
The war between Southern Xinjiang and Daluo actually has no need for the common people.
Because it is not fighting to protect the country, nor is it fighting for faith, nor is it fighting for the people.
The Daluo Dynasty was like a sleeping dragon, which had been dormant in the eastern land for three thousand years and never expanded externally.
What's ridiculous is that even if it has no ambition, its strength is actually a sin.
All the forces in the strange world can no longer tolerate the existence of the Daluo Dynasty.
And Southern Xinjiang is a pawn in the game played by these big powers.
The rest of the countries want to know how powerful the Daluo Dynasty is now, so Southern Xinjiang, a country that often relies on the importance of the magic community to harass the Daluo border all the year round, has become the best spy.
All countries have provided overt or covert help to southern Xinjiang.
The nobles in southern Xinjiang were also happy because after all, it was not the nobles who started the war and died on the battlefield.
On the contrary, after fighting for a while and negotiating peace with the prisoners, the gold and silver treasures went into the pockets of nobles like them.
For the families of soldiers who died in the war, it was just an understatement of death. Those who finally got the pension after many layers of deductions could not even afford a single pancake.
It is only the people of southern Xinjiang who are suffering.
Wumo, Bulma, Dashi Ershi, these people are just a microcosm of the victims of the war in southern Xinjiang.
Li Guanqi had reason to suspect that other forces were involved behind the capture and death of Zhennan General Zhou Xuanwu's youngest son.
The reason is to prevent this war from ending too early.
"well……"
The vast night.
A slight sigh.
For Li Guanqi, the so-called world plot is actually an ongoing disaster for people in the strange world.
The plot he is understanding step by step is the tragic past that some people have already experienced.
There are extraordinary beings in this strange world, and because of this, wars often appear particularly tragic.
When the war comes to a later stage, because the country is about to be shaken and it becomes necessary to take serious action, those powerful extraordinary beings will no longer be the "deterrence" of the confrontation between the two armies, but will become the real combat power to be competed.
Those strong men fighting against each other could easily destroy mountains and cities, leaving millions of mortals covered in the aftermath, leaving no trace of their corpses.
In this strange world, according to rough statistics, the combined population of all countries is nearly 100 billion, and for each country, even with this population, it is still considered to be a vast land with sparsely populated areas.
This world is too big to be imagined.
Ordinary people's lives are worthless.
…
…
Eight days later.
Li Guanqi followed the Green Teeth Mercenary Group and drove through the uninhabited tropical rainforest for so long, finally arriving at the Leiluo Mountains in the evening.
This is a vast and stretching mountain range, with lush trees all over the mountains and plains, and countless powerful demons lurking in it.
It is said that hundreds of years ago, a four-elephant-level thunder monitor flew over from the Daluo Dynasty and settled here, and even called itself "Luo".
Since then, this mountain range has been called the Leiluo Mountains.
"It's too late."
At the outermost edge of the Leiluo Mountains, in a forest near a river.
Wu Mo looked up at the gradually darkening sky and said in a deep voice: "Let's set up camp and wait until daybreak before we set off."
...I'm afraid it won't work.
Li Guanqi stood nearby with a calm expression.
He has the talent to travel into secluded areas. In a place like a forest where insects are densely populated, he is simply his home field, with a radius of one thousand meters... In fact, the limit of the area he can control is one thousand meters.
It's a thousand meters forward, and it's a thousand meters backward.
Therefore, with him as the center of the circle, the area he can control is actually a circle with a radius of one thousand meters.
That is an area approximately two kilometers in radius.
After entering the one-dimensional level, the levels of the cursed insects and cursed spirits he can control have become one-dimensional, but the distance and upper limit have not changed at all, and it is not known whether they can continue to expand in the future.
Let’s talk about now.
Li Guanqi relied on Tongyou's gift of whispering with insects and learned that more than 1,300 meters to the west, there was a giant purple wolf several times larger than a tiger, staring at them.
Demon species...
One yuan level!
Li Guanqi was actually very curious. Wumo and the others were just ordinary people. How could they have the confidence to hunt in an area full of monsters like the Leiluo Mountains?
So he didn't warn him aloud and was prepared to wait and see what would happen.
The giant purple wolf in the distance keeps getting closer.
1200 meters…
1100 meters…
1050 meters…
1030 meters…
1010 meters……
"Umo!"
The girl Bulma suddenly spoke up and looked at Wumo anxiously, "There is a one-dimensional demon species coming towards here!"
"Um?!"
Wu Mo's expression changed slightly, and then he shouted: "Everyone, prepare to fight! Mr. Li, go back to the tent and hide!"
Li Guanqi quickly retreated into the tent and observed the situation outside through the gap in the curtain.
Um?!
I saw Wu Mo and all five people taking out a bottle of liquid of different colors from their pockets and pouring it into their mouths, and then the breath in their bodies began to rise rapidly.
Strange blood?
Li Guanqi smelled the smell of strange blood from the smell escaping from those bottles of liquid, but there must have been a lot of other ingredients added, and the smell was very strange.
