Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland

The morning light is fading, and the full moon gradually disappears in the sky, leaving only a faint outline.

The soldier in iron armor sat under the lamppost holding a long knife in his hand. Before he could, the dried blood rolled off his armor and seeped into the ground.

A rush of footsteps sounded behind him, approaching quickly.

The soldier stood up and drew his sword, pointing at the person coming with a sharp look.

"It's you," but he suddenly smiled again, "You're a little late, Kang."

The white hair on the young man's head was somewhat messy, and there were blood scabs in many places, but his smile looked very bright.

"Lao Lu, what's going on here! What happened today?"

Shaq, a strong man carrying a segmented ax, looked shocked.

——Kang fought his way out of the city lord's mansion.

A weird banquet with no one attending, which makes people feel wrong no matter how they think about it.

In particular, the guard warned him not to meddle in other people's business. If he had enough to eat and drink here, and then get some sleep, everything would be solved when he got up the next day.

This is obviously to put them under house arrest.

Kang pretended to return to the table, and when the guard wasn't paying attention, he turned around and knocked him over, snatched his weapon and ran away.

The whole body was affected by the move, but he didn't expect that just because he wanted to leave, he would alarm the entire city lord's palace.

At first, Kang was very restrained, focusing only on disarming and incapacitating the opponent, while trying to find out the truth of the matter... Unexpectedly, the guards directly mobilized the crossbows and turrets.

The machine is ruthless. This is a thing that can kill people. You can't even try to hold it back.

After a bloody battle, Kang finally came out.

At the same time, he lamented in his heart that he might not be able to keep his job.

Yet he couldn't help but do it.

You must know that these people are willing to be so cruel even to themselves. What happened to those who were not present at the banquet?

Kang immediately thought of Lu Beiyou.

So he first rushed to the longhouse where Brother Lu lived. The scene he saw at first almost made him feel cold, because there were many corpses lying outside the longhouse, and there was fear that something might happen to the people inside.

But after careful inspection, Kang found that many of the wounds on the bodies of the deceased were long and narrow. The killers struck very quickly, and the blades were thin and thin. They were not like those of the Lu brothers, but their techniques were more like those of the Union City warriors.

The only candidates he knew were the two Huang brothers in the Thunder Arena.

But if it was them, the sharpness of the attack showed that the person's strength had improved a lot.

But more corpses were killed by crossbow arrows.

Based on his experience, Kang judged that those crossbows were of a very conventional standard, but their power was much greater than that of ordinary military crossbows.

Such crossbows are only owned by technology hunters.

That came from the ancient technology they salvaged and restored while exploring the ruins. Therefore, this series of crossbows are also called [Old World Crossbows]. The design is completely different from the crossbows popular on the mainland. Even calling it a 'crossbow' is a bit reluctant.

Tech hunters are also involved?

This made Kang feel more and more confused.

Suddenly, Kang decided to break into Brother Lu's house. The good news was that there was no one in the longhouse and there were no signs of injuries.

But he also discovered that the layout of the other party's room seemed ordinary, but in fact it hid a murderous intention. The heavy furniture and baffles could be used as bunkers to resist invasion. There were also temporary shooting holes on it, which could be used if the first floor was lost. You can retreat to the second floor, and there is an escape passage along the cliff path on the top floor... This cannot be called a safe house, but should be called a fortress. It is so tight that one cannot help but suspect that the owner of the house has delusions of being persecuted. the point.

In fact, most of these arrangements were not used because the intruders were eliminated directly outside the house.

After the attack, the people in the house had already evacuated.

Kang was relieved, but he didn't know where to look, so he could only search along the streets one by one. And because he had offended the guards, he did not dare to make a big fuss. It was not until dawn that he saw Brother Lu.

It was just the background of this scene that shocked Kang Da.

Shaq corpses and mutilated bodies were everywhere, and Brother Lu was also wearing a strange iron armor, covered in blood.

He stood among the dead bodies, with a trace of fatigue after a hard fight on his face.

Kang had never seen his friend look like this before. He felt like a general or a king who had just returned from a victory on the battlefield.

——It may also be a peerless thug.

When Kang saw this scene, he almost blurted out, "Lie down, hold your head, and give up resistance."

The guard suffered from an occupational disease.

Lu Meng smiled: "It's a long story."

Only then did Kang notice that there were two Shaqs lying at his feet, and their faces were familiar.

One is Yamin, who has performed quite well among the newcomers. He rests his head on the stone ridge on the street, opens his mouth wide, and his chest and abdomen rise and fall slightly...

Slept quite sweetly.

There was a syringe scattered around Yamin's wrist. It looked like it was an anesthetic that Lu Meng had collected for a long time. He injected it into the young man who was on the verge of going crazy. This caused him to experience the hallucination of Krall's death. But the muscles all over his body were paralyzed and he couldn't move, as if he had had a big dream from another life.

Lu Meng just gave him a rough bandage, and the wound healed quickly. Feiniu really didn't want to kill him.

It took Kang a while to identify the other human form.

"This is... Ada?" He hesitated for a moment.

It's not that Kang didn't know Ada. Although this Shaq's performance on the court was not outstanding, he was warm, gentle and generous in private, and many people liked him very much.

After a few months of getting along, he has become a leader among the newcomers.

However, Ada on the ground was very different from usual.

He only had one arm left, and a ferocious wound cut diagonally across his body, almost splitting the whole person in half; and the bone plates and scales all over his body were also peeled off, reminding Kang of the things that fall off when people age. teeth, I just didn’t expect there to be so many.

Ada's current appearance indeed looks like she is aging, with muscles atrophied and wrinkles appearing at the corners of her eyes.

Judging from his pale face and flat chest, he had been dead for a long time.

Seriously injured and losing his weapon, the outcome of the battle was already determined.

"You can also call him Flying Cow."

Lu Meng took out a small pot of strong liquor from his close-fitting cloth pocket and poured it into his mouth.

"Flying Cow?!" Kang's expression changed, and he even took a step back unconsciously.

As a warrior of the Shark Kingdom, people may not even know Krall's Choice, but everyone knows the name of Flying Bull.

He is the biggest rebel left in the Shagel era. Even if the great Stone Demon has ascended the throne, Feiniu is unwilling to surrender. He traveled alone across the entire Stan Desert and went deep into the Spider Plains to avoid pursuit. When everyone thought that this remnant had been buried in the digestive glands of human-skin spiders, he reappeared in front of the world with a bloody storm.

Some people say that he is an extremely vicious monster, one foot tall, who chooses and devours people, leaving only dead souls and fear wherever he goes.

But some people say privately that he is the last true Shaq warrior, and the only thing he likes to do is drink and sing with his companions.

Kang couldn't believe it.

Not to mention that Ada's appearance is too different from the legendary flying bull.

If he was really Feiniu, how could he die here...

In other words, how could Feiniu die?

Kang also knew that it made no sense to say this, but in the hearts of most Shaq warriors, Fei Niu was like the incarnation of immortality.

"Um."

The spicy wine entered his throat, and Lu Meng's body warmed up slightly.

He sighed: "It's just that no one has seen him like this, so I don't know if he still recognizes the reward..."

Because he needs to be equipped with a "fixed appearance" module, the "drinkable liquid" is naturally not installed, so what he drinks now is ordinary wine, otherwise tonight's battle will be easier.

Later it's time to unlock more slots.

——Before tonight’s battle started, Ada once asked Lu Meng why he wasn’t wearing armor.

Of course this was a test, and he also deceived the other party.

In fact, Lu Meng also reminded Ada that the quality of his weapons was not high.

However, Lu Meng already knew the answer.

He picked up the broken axe, which had been broken into two pieces, and put them together.

Ada said that it was given to him by a friend.

And this person is the former King Shagar; this segmented ax, also known as [Horn Axe], is a rare weapon with a separate name in the background. The others with this qualification are all at the top of the Marked Blade level. equipment.

How many players, after defeating Feiniu, expected to get a good weapon, only to curse after getting it.

Because the horn ax is only at the level of an old modified knife. For those who can kill flying cows, this level is equivalent to scrap metal.

I think that when Shagar presented the horn ax to Ada, he didn't intend to let this somewhat ordinary warrior carry it onto the battlefield. It was just a ritual weapon equivalent to a ceremonial staff or Shang Fang's sword.

However, when Shagar died, Ada took the horn ax and founded Krall's Choice single-handedly.

After becoming the flying bull feared and admired by all Shaq warriors, he still continued to use it.

This rough weapon drank countless blood from then on.

So...stubborn.

King Shagar also had no heirs. His title was gradually forgotten. His previous policies and traditions were completely overturned. Even his name was not mentioned in public. The glory of the Stone Demon Queen completely overshadowed this one. The old king.

Then the horn ax is the only thing Shagar has left in the world.

If even Fei Niu left it behind...then probably no one would be willing to remember Shagar's existence.

When Lu Meng cut off the horn axe, Feiniu, who had become completely mad, suddenly stopped.

The sea of ​​blood surged in his eyes, then receded like a real tide, and he miraculously regained his consciousness.

Then came the childlike tears.

The next moment, Lu Meng rushed forward.

He was wearing heavy armor, but he still jumped up lightly, landed like an eagle, and pierced the flying bull's back neck with his long knife.

Gravity pulled Lu Meng down, and the long knife slid down along the spine, cutting open each vertebrae.

The transparent spinal cord spurted out with scarlet red.

The Berserker collapsed suddenly as if falling apart.

The pain of this process would have been enough to make people commit suicide on the spot, but Feiniu just remained silent.

Without the support of his madness, he quickly shrank back to his original appearance as if dehydrated.

From being arrogant when he was sure of victory at the beginning, to being furious with all his strength, now when he was about to die, Shaq's expression was as calm as water.

It is said that the visions seen by each berserker are actually different, which is mixed with their own understanding. Most people describe Krall as violent, angry and high-spirited like the roar of mountains and seas before his death.

But Lu Meng suddenly felt.

The legendary warrior who unified the Shaq tribe and died in countless battles was probably just this calm at the last moment of his life, without sorrow or joy.

They wait for death as they wait for their fate to meet.

Ada suddenly said: "Good job."

Lu Meng put away the knife and stopped to look back.

The Shaq's body was like a clepsydra, with blood pouring out and pooling under him.

"I'm curious," Lu Meng said, "Did you really plan to recruit me at that moment?"

According to his understanding of the Chosen of Kral, they do not like 'lower races', but because they are devout followers of Kral, strength comes first, and if a foreigner can prove his ability in battle, he can also win their respect.

Lu Meng thought he was quite qualified.

After all, even people like He Falcon can get the olive branch they throw at them.

However, every time Ada mentioned similar conditions, it was either to disguise or to paralyze himself. If he hesitated for a moment, he would be struck by the sharp edge of the horn axe.

This made Lu Meng a little angry.

Ada's body trembled, but her motor nerves were damaged, so Lu Meng couldn't tell whether he was nodding or shaking his head.

"I said, we are the same kind of people." The Shaq man's voice gradually became weaker, "So there is absolutely no possibility for us to coexist."

Lu Meng smiled: "Are we all bad guys?"

"No, we are just as stubborn..."

Ada let go of her hand and the second half of the horn ax she was holding fell to the ground.

[Actual combat level: 67 → 70 (legion level)]

…

Lu Meng held the horn axe, wiped off the blood on it, and saw clearly a line of small words on the handle of the axe.

The handwriting is different from the inscription written by Shagar. It seems that someone added it later. The carving is crooked and there is no signature:

"For him, I will never die in a hundred battles."

"For him, I will never regret it."

Lu Meng remained calm and handed the front half of the horn ax to the curious Kang, asking him to read the inscription on it.

"Is this... really a flying cow?" After reading it, Kang couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Shaq looked at Lu Meng.

There were too many shocks at the same time.

He originally thought that he rushed out of the city lord's mansion and the adventures along the way were already surprising, but he did not expect that at the same time, such a story happened here.

First, Feiniu's true identity was revealed, but before anyone could adapt, he died.

And it was his friend who killed him.

——Lubei Tour.

Sometimes, people don’t feel much about the legend that is far away. Only when it happens around them will they know how shocking it is.

"Lu, Your Excellency Lu Beiyou?"

Kang was a little hesitant for a moment.

If it weren't for their different stances, most warriors would still respect Feiniu - especially those who could kill him.

However, Lu Beiyou was just a newly promoted human warrior, and he didn't even have a title yet.

This forced Kang to add his name, which was quite awkward.

"Just call me Lu Meng." Lu Meng smiled and patted the big man Shaq on the shoulder.

Both of their bodies were stained with blood, but with just this movement, they seemed to have returned to the way they usually got along.

Kang also breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly realized something was wrong:

"Lu Meng?"

Kang vaguely remembered that the other party said that only when he couldn't survive, he could use this name to find him...

"What else?" Lu Meng spread his hands and pointed at the corpses all over the street, "You don't think we have done these things. You can still clock in and go to work tomorrow, right, my police officer?"

Depend on.

Kang wanted to say that I could only be considered an accessory at best.

And I had no idea!

Lu Meng sighed softly in his heart. He finally understood why Kang Zai was reduced to a wandering warrior.

Even if he didn't have himself, this person would not be manipulated by the conspiracy.

He is far away from the political struggle, but he is still inevitably involved in the whirlpool.

However, in the original background, Kang was alone. After learning the truth, he had nowhere to go and his beliefs were different.

Just as Kang was sorting out the mess in his mind, Lu Meng's ears twitched slightly and he looked behind him.

A hornless man appears on the street.

His steps were staggering due to weakness and fatigue, but his direction was firm.

Bayan, who had been taken away from the battlefield, actually appeared here again, walking straight towards them.

The chapter of Shaq Kingdom is about to come to an end, and the story I want to write here is almost finished. I saw that some friends have actually guessed Ada’s identity long ago, but there has been no spoilers, which is also very disappointing. The author was moved - in the original work, this was a clue that could only be summed up after getting the horn axe, but as the article said, this is really a very rubbish weapon, so it is easy to be ignored - give me a preview, continue After coming down to rest and transition, we will go all the way east to the old world where more secrets are buried. I hope all my old and new friends can continue to support us! Moreover, the updates from the new author are really weak. Thanks to the understanding of everyone who is familiar with me, I kowtow again——

Thanks to friends like Niye, Like Mini, Bottom of Maslow’s Needs Pyramid, and saynol for their rewards——
