Chapter 57 Wasteland?

The elk husband said that the potatoes were found near a river, and Cecil hoped that there would be sand near the river beach, which is indispensable for normal house building, cement for road construction, and filtration, and In the future, burning glass will also be indispensable. Transparent glass is the father of modern chemistry. In short, it has many uses.

During the eleven-day journey, Langdon strongly objected to Cecil going alone, but he couldn't leave because there were too many facts in the village. In the end, he appointed a knight to follow and protect.

Cecil didn't think it was necessary, and the elk wife also said that "there is nothing on this grassland that I can't eat", but Langdon still disagreed.No way, he is the supreme commander here, others have to listen to what he says, even Oakes is unhappy but can't object.

Early the next morning, when Cecil got up and was thinking about how to ask for interpreter magic and how to communicate with the magic elk in the past eleven days, when he went out, he found a person leaning against the wall next to the house. He was very tall and frightening. After seeing clearly that it was Oakes, he was relieved. When he was thinking about whether to say hello, Oakes suddenly leaned over and kissed him on the cheek with lightning speed. Compared with Langdon's tender kiss, Oakes kissed like a storm...

"Fuck!" Cecil cursed reflexively, took a step back and stopped, looking at Oakes with a strange look, "Aren't you afraid that Russell will see it?"

Oakes looked puzzled: "See what's wrong? I kindly gave you a spell of interpreting, and you still don't appreciate it?"

Cecil: "..."

Fuck, did the Knights really use this method to strengthen magic?Was Langdon doing this in all seriousness?Isn't it a little ambiguous?

While Cecil was reflecting on his dirty thoughts, Oakes said slowly, "I'm here to tell you, don't think too much about Langdon, this guy is very good at sweet talk, and he makes others feel like he is Best of all, you won't have any sympathy when it's time to strike at the end. The ancients are the ancients, and he sees us like robbers who took over his house, and he won't have any good feelings. So, I advise you to stay calm One point, don’t think he’s a good person just because he looks friendly, be careful and count the money for him when he’s sold.”

There is nothing wrong with these words coming from the mouth of Oakes.

Oakes suddenly moved closer to Cecil, and whispered, "Do you think I have a problem with Langdon, that's why I said that? You might as well think about why he was transferred to the Templar position." As an ancient remnant with extraordinary power, such a powerful person is not a king, why didn't the Knights let him become the head of the legion?"

If it was the real Cecil, there would probably be all sorts of guesses, but now this "Cecil" can't make any guesses at all, because he doesn't know what extraordinary power the ancient survivors have, and he doesn't know what the legion leader is... …

"Hehe." Cecil squeezed out a dry laugh.

Oakes suddenly changed his face, and said coldly: "I warned you with good intentions, but you actually scolded me? I don't know what's good, just wait and see!" After speaking, he turned around and left, with a wave of resentment behind him, and it was almost imaginable that he was against Russell complained.

Fuck, the translation magic can even translate the true meaning of "hehe"? !

Cecil scratched his itchy scalp habitually, and walked towards the elk house. The elk wife had been waiting there for a long time. She gracefully shook her beautiful horns and said, "Good morning, Sir Knight, shall we go?"

The knight who was assigned to follow was also there, and it was the handsome blue-eyed guy: "Good morning, Commander Cecil."

"Good morning, Anger Knight, let's go." Cecil nodded solemnly.

The two embarked on the journey together.

The [-]-day journey of the magic elk would take about [-] days even for a strong human being. Depending on the weather and accidents on the road, Cecil's troubled communication problem on the road was resolved the next day.

"Good morning, do you want to interpret magic?" Ang asked as soon as he saw Cecil at breakfast.

Ange's face is somewhat neutral, with blue eyes and blond hair, and a pair of peach blossom eyes that are always watery. There is a so-called "gorgeous" feeling, and he is more like the elf in Cecil's impression than Dali, the "hairless braised egg" , but his fighting skills rank first among all knights, and his magic skills are in the middle.

For some reason, looking at Ange's calm and pretty face, Langdon's smiling expression involuntarily appeared in front of Cecil's eyes, the warm fingers touching his head, the soft lips kissing his cheek... Damn it!

Cecil waved his hand in a panic and pointed to his ear.

"Oh, don't you need it? That's fine." Ange said, "Anyway, I have prepared an interpreter magic, if you need to speak, just come to me."

Cecil nodded.

This journey was very peaceful, and there was no special person or event. The elk wife can catch animals every day, and use salt to roast them in the wild for a meal. Saffron is very light and easy to carry, and it is not difficult to eat three meals a day. , the difficulty is to find the water source.

The elk wife came here by migration, and she can always find water sources in hidden places along the way, or small puddles, or natural wells, relying on these few people can move forward safely.If it doesn't work, there is still Ange's magic water. This is the bottom line, because he has to reserve the magic bit to guard against unexpected situations.

Cecil learned from Ange that the so-called magic slot is the amount of magic that can be cast every day, beyond this amount, it is impossible to cast magic anymore, so, who can be freed from things like casting magic water or magic bread It couldn't be better.

Along the way, he has been thinking about looking for useful resources. Within half a month's walk, he can use the resources, but if he goes further away, he may be powerless. Transportation is a serious problem.

However, the scenery on this road is grassland except for the grassland, and the Luofeng Mountains are completely invisible on the seventh day. Everything that can be seen is the grassland plus the occasional solitary tree, and low vegetation. Rabbits, Various small animals such as wolves, foxes, mice, etc., have no traces of large animals at all.

Until No. 11 days, Cecil discovered something.

It was bare ground in a prairie, sunken in the thick grass, and it would have been impossible to spot it if the moose wife hadn't used it as a signpost.

"That's an ominous place." Elk's wife said solemnly, "It must be kept far away!"

"What will happen if you get close?" Cecil asked curiously.

"Teeth will fall out."

"?"

"But it will happen after going to many times." Elk's wife said, "The ground there is hard, not afraid of wind and rain, so some people have lived there, but every time after a few months, these people will lose their hair. Some still vomit blood, cannot eat, and finally die in pain. No one knows why, so it is called an ominous place!"

The more Cecil heard it, the more he felt wrong: Isn't this radiation?

Despite the fear in my heart, well, it's all here...

The strange thing is that the grass seems to have been dug artificially. If it is really radiation, it may affect the nearby area. Although the plants will not become extinct after a long time, it is certain that there will be distortion and bad growth. None of these have been found. .

It was an irregular circle, with a handful of plants growing on the ground from time to time, and fragmentary black hard lumps fell on the ground, probably because the original black ground was broken and crumbled under the natural environment year after year. gradually became fragmented.

Cecil bent down and took a closer look, and was shocked to find that those black lumps should be asphalt, and the rough and special color would never be mistaken.He didn't dare to touch it, who knew what would be there, but this discovery made him extremely uneasy.

From the parchment left by the original Cecil, it is certain that there have definitely been traversers in this world, but why is there no sign of industrial civilization?Is it because the people of this world are used to the total destruction of civilization?

Cecil didn't find the answer, and didn't dare to stay for a long time. After a few glances, he left quickly.

"Is there any place like this on the prairie?" Cecil asked.

"No more." Elk's wife said, "There are legends that this is a curse from the dark world."

The dark world... the universe, Langdon's ancient survivors are also said to be from the dark world.

The boring journey ended in thirteen days. The two of them and a deer stood on the edge of a river beach. From the traces of dry moss on the stones of different sizes, it can be seen that there used to be a river here, but there is only one river left now. Winding stone river.

Cecil searched around, but the expected sand did not appear, only the beach of stones. These stones were not big enough, and most of them became very round due to the washing of the water.

"There used to be a big river here." The elk wife said, "The river gets smaller every winter, but this year is different. The river dried up completely a month ago. At that time, the weather had not turned cold, and it was terrible."

Cecil looked up the river, and there seemed to be no mountains or peaks, so where is the source of the river?

"Please come with me," said the elk wife.

The land where the potatoes are located is a piece of sand-like land. Cecil happily turned around and found that the sandy land is extremely small, and the problem brought about is that there are very few potatoes, not to mention that the potatoes at this time have already passed away. It was the harvest season, and he and Ange rummaged in the sand for a long time, but only found some egg-sized plant stems, and many of them were seriously lacking in nutrients and water. They were very shriveled and had small sprouts. When the severe cold comes, these potatoes may be finished directly.

In the end is how to survive?

In any case, it was good to have a harvest. Cecil and Ange packed all the potatoes into cloth bags, and when they were about to leave, they ran into a stranger.
