"Team, captain, why don't we, let's go back first and wait until winter is over before we come out to look for it, okay?"
A group of people rode on their mounts, marching forward in the wind and snow. Everyone was so cold that they couldn't even speak. They were wrapped in thick animal skin robes and animal skin hats, and there were drops on them. Under a layer of snow, everyone hunched their necks, wrapped their robes tightly, and followed the man at the front.
The person leading the way was Yan Xing who came out to look for the energy stone. He was a legendary strongman in the Holy Domain and Yan Xu's younger brother. He would naturally be reused. This task should have been handed over to Yan Jing. But winter is coming, and judging from their abilities, Yanxing is more suitable.
He has a fire attribute ability. He is not afraid of heat in summer or cold in winter. He is very suitable for walking outside. Everyone is shivering from the cold, but he doesn't feel the same at all. He squints his eyes and looks around.
Before he left, Tang Shi gave him a bead, the size of a pong ball, pure white, like a snow ball. It was given to Tang Shi by the system, saying that it could sense the location of the energy stone, as long as it was nearby. With the energy stone, the beads would glow. Yanxing had been holding these beads for more than a month without any reaction.
However, just last night, when they hid in a cave and made a fire to keep warm and rest, the beads glowed, which made Yanxing so excited that he couldn't sleep well all night. He started to move forward at dawn, and the beads in his hand followed suit. The route is getting brighter and brighter, which shows that they are going in the right direction.
"If we persist for a few more days, we will find it soon." Yanxing looked down at the beads in his hand again, and said encouragingly: "As long as we find the energy stone, we will be saved this winter, otherwise we don't know how to save it. How many people will starve to death and freeze to death?"
A nearby former Awakening Army soldier trembled with his lips, "If you find the energy stone, you can live? The energy stone can't be eaten, so what's the use of it?"
Yanxing glanced at the soldier and said with a smile: "Are you stupid? This is what Brother Tang asked to find. Who is that person? That is Tang Shi who has the blood of the ancestor of the human race. If he says that, he will definitely be able to find it. If you do it, as long as the conditions are met, no difficulty will be a problem for Brother Tang."
"That's right, since it's Madam's intention, then Nana must be right."
"I said, captain, how can you persist for so long? It turns out that it was not the head of state's intention, but the husband's intention..."
They didn't dare to call Tang Shi "Mrs." in person, but they all called her "Mrs." behind their backs. Everyone knew very well that when they said "Mrs.", they knew who they were talking about.
In the eyes of everyone, Tang Shi and Yan Xu are simply god-like beings. There is nothing they can't do, so no one will doubt the orders they give. Even if they find it unbelievable, they will do their best to execute them.
Although Yanxu became the head of state in Xiacheng, his status in Xiacheng during the Tang Dynasty was undoubtedly at the level of "National Preceptor", and sometimes even the head of state had to listen to him. Yanxing sometimes feels that Yanxu is actually just a coolie. Even though he has become the head of state and has all kinds of glory and power, he is actually just a coolie!
Every time Yan Xing thought that Brother Tang would just move his mouth next to him and Brother Xu would race forward and back non-stop, he couldn't help but shed tears of sympathy for him.
"Team, captain! There are mountains ahead!" A soldier shouted tremblingly.
They were almost frozen into icemen, the temperature was too low, too cold!
Yanxing also saw that there was a mountain range ahead. The beads in his hand were shining brightly, indicating that there must be energy stones in that mountain!
"Let's go! Speed up, the energy stone is in that mountain! When we are sure, we can take some more and take them away, and we can go back!" Yanxing took the lead and drove his mount to run wildly. He is not afraid of the cold or the wind and snow. The snow on the ground covered the mount's hooves, making it a bit difficult to run, with snowflakes flying everywhere.
As soon as the team members behind saw the captain starting to run, they had to follow quickly no matter how cold it was. They couldn't fall behind. They all followed with bared teeth. The wind and snow hit their faces like ice knives. They couldn't make any unnecessary expressions. , otherwise the facial skin will definitely become chapped!
Just as they were running wildly, a dark shadow with the title of the book suddenly emerged from the bare woods on both sides of the road, and rushed towards the group of people at extremely fast speeds!
In an instant, two unsuspecting soldiers were knocked off their mounts and fell heavily into the snow. They slid far away. Before the soldier could stand up, there was a pool of blood on the snow. Explode!
The advancing team was suddenly attacked, and everyone quickly turned around to fight the attacker!
The shadows that sneaked up were all wrapped in animal skins, and their appearance could not be seen clearly. They could only see that they were moving very fast. With one successful blow, he killed two soldiers, quickly broke away from the team, and retreated wherever he went. Yanxing had quick eyes and quick hands. He shot several fireballs in succession, wrapping all the fleeing attackers in flames. They all let out miserable screams and fell to the snow. He kept rolling around, trying to extinguish the flames on his body.
However, the flame created by the Flame Star cannot be extinguished. It is a flame controlled by the power of arcane magic. How is it possible to extinguish it
Yanxing showed no mercy, and with a single wave of his hand, he burned several of the attackers to ashes, leaving only one who was half-burned to death.
They have been wandering around outside for more than a month and have never been attacked. Even the wandering beasts in this world will stay away from them when they see them. The reason is not that their aura is terrifying, but that they are attacked by the people under them. The mount was shocked.
Each of their mounts is tall and powerful. It is easy to kill a beast. Of course, those beasts will be afraid.
Yanxing got off his mount, and a group of people followed him. A soldier was ordered to step forward and uncover the attacker who was charred and still smoking. When the man's true appearance appeared in front of everyone, , everyone was shocked.
This person has two pointed, furry ears on both sides of his head, and his face is also streaked with colors. No need to look too much, just such a head is enough for them to prove the identity of the attacker, but it's not just them. Are you the most familiar beast spirit tribesman, one of the ten ancient tribes? !
"How could it be? Why did the Beast Spirit tribe attack us? Do they live near here?"
They all knew that the members of the ancient tribes had been expelled far away from the human domain by the head of state. This realm was far beyond the human domain. It was not surprising that they appeared here, but they suddenly attacked them and killed two of them. Soldier, this is no small matter.
Someone asked suspiciously: "Didn't they recognize us?"
Each of them was wrapped tightly and hidden in animal skin cloaks, so it was possible that they were not recognized.
Someone immediately retorted: "Impossible, even if they can't recognize us, can't they recognize the mounts underneath them? These mounts were once card creatures, there's no way they can't recognize us!"
Someone asked in shock: "Could it be that... they knew we were from Xia City, so they deliberately attacked us?"
Cong Yun, who once served as a trainee judge under Tang Shi, is now following the team out to search for energy stones. Even if he has no ability now, he is still very powerful. He was a bodyguard before the end of the world. In the few years of the end of the world, his physical strength has improved. He was also transformed by Yuan Neng, and his skills became even more powerful.
This time they came out to carry out the task of finding energy stones. Yanxing was the strongest and served as the captain, but he was not mature enough and stable enough. Tang Shi sent Cong Yun as the deputy captain to follow Yanxing.
Normally, he would not speak, and all decision-making rights belong to Yanxing. But at this moment, he narrowed his eyes and said solemnly: "Are you paying attention to the wrong place? No one noticed why their skills are so agile? Why are they so fast? Fast?"
If it weren't for Yan Xing, a legendary powerhouse from the Sanctuary, these awakened ones who had lost their abilities would not be able to catch up with their speed!
After Cong Yun reminded them, everyone was shocked.
"Yes, they are indeed very fast, and their killing methods are also very neat. This..."
"I'm afraid this matter is not simple. We should report it to the head of state as soon as possible so that Xia Cheng can be more vigilant!"
Yanxing, who had been silent all this time, suddenly turned around and looked at the mountain in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "They estimate that they may not let us leave."
As soon as he finished speaking, black shadows quickly sprang out from the bare snow-covered woods, surrounding them. In front of them, there was a group of black shadows running towards them, with different types of beasts riding under them. , strange looking, they have never seen them before, they should be creatures of this world, tamed by them.
The team brought out by Yanxing was not many, only twenty people. They were here to find energy stones, not to fight with others. They must be strong and able to travel lightly. This means that there are not many people. The reason is that the team of twenty people moved really fast, and there have been no casualties for so long, except for the fact that two people died in the sneak attack by the Beast Spirit Tribe just now.
There were forty or fifty people who came over, more than twice as many as them.
The person riding on the back of the tallest beast controlled the beast to the front. Their dark animal skin cloaks only covered the person with two eyes.
Yanxing stared at this person and couldn't figure out who he was. He knew that the leader of the Beast Spirit Clan was named Xiao Duomo and was very close to the human race, but he didn't know what he was doing now.
"Xiao Duomo?" Yanxing called tentatively.
The man on the back of the beast had a mocking light in his eyes, "Unfortunately, you guessed wrong."
"Then who are you?" Yan Xing glanced at the people who surrounded them, "Whose order did you get to openly attack the human race, are you planning to rebel?!"
The mocking smile in the man's eyes grew stronger, "I am Yin Yuanjie, the current leader of the Beast Spirit Clan."
"Yin Yuanjie? Who? I've never heard of him at all. Where's Duomai? I want to see him!" Yanxing only knew Duomai, but didn't know which corner this Yin Yuanjie came from.
