Elven Survival Manual

In the demon king's traveling team, whether they were human or non-human, they all thought that they would encounter other people, at least after approaching the oasis that the caravan said was inhabited by small tribes.

And so is it.

When they left the golden sand sea, the elves saw the real world for the first time.

It’s not that there are endless sand dunes without a trace of vitality. After leaving the golden sand sea, although the place is still dry and barren, the low shrubs grow tenaciously on the ground. Although it was desolate, it added a little vitality to this land.

But the elves can feel that this land is dying.

Unknown small shrubs are scattered here and there, and the thin grass blades cling to the ground. At first glance, you will feel that the land is covered with light green, but when you look closely, you can find that they grow very sparsely. Between each other is bare loess and shows signs of desertification.

Perhaps in a few years, even these tenacious small shrubs will disappear here.

In the distance, there is a rock wall towering under the blue sky. It seems very close, but if you really want to walk over it, I am afraid that Wangshan will run to death.

The team left the dunes and walked on the stable ground without worrying about quicksand and traps. The camels walked much more cheerfully, and at the same time, the speed of the team became faster.

After getting used to the aura of the monsters, the caravan that originally followed dared to approach the front cautiously. Sam took his two servants and several other big merchants and walked ahead, acting as a guide. work.

Yvestal, who was also at the front, was listening to them briefing him on the surrounding situation.

"When we came here, we happened to encounter a sandstorm. Did you see the rock wall over there? That's where we avoided the sandstorm. We walked east from the rock wall and bypassed the golden sand sea. You can see a water source within a day’s journey, but that’s where the sandstorm went, and that water source was originally small, and once the sandstorm passed, the entire water source disappeared.”

If not, they would not have changed their course and walked into the sea of ​​golden sand.

"We have been worried that we will encounter traps such as quicksand. Fortunately, the journey was safe and sound, and we are lucky to reach your country."

In the eyes of these businessmen, the magic castle is a country. After the language conversion, they thought that the name of the magic castle was "the kingdom of magic". The "magic" in the book means a magician. No one thought that it actually had a meaning similar to "demon" and "devil".

If they have seen undead such as skeleton soldiers and ghosts, they can probably think of it.

The merchants hope that the team will move closer to the rock wall. The roads in the desert are always ever-changing. Many times they need to rely on some more conspicuous objects to guide them. In the end, they will lose their way.

"When we get there, we can determine the direction of the next route."

The succubus agreed, so the group turned around and headed for the rock wall.

This walk lasted a whole day, until night fell and the ground became cold, and they reached the bottom of the rock wall.

This rock wall is very huge and has a considerable length. The erosion of wind and sand has left stripe-like traces on its surface. It stands there straight, just to block the cold wind at night.

Although the night seems to have become milder after leaving the golden sand sea, the temperature difference between day and night is still the most likely to make people sick.

But for the monsters, even if the temperature suddenly changed from the equator to the arctic, they would at most frown, and then quickly adapt.

This temperature difference is not enough to see at all. What monsters don’t like and fear is the scorching sun, which contains light elements that conflict with them. Sorry, that feels like a UV allergy.

So it is better not to bask in the sun or not to bask in the sun.

After confirming that they wanted to rest here, the team stopped and set up camp.

On the second day, after determining the route, they set off again.

After another two days of stop and go, they finally saw the oasis.

This oasis is very small, and similarly, the tribes that settle here are also very small. According to Sam and others, the population living here does not exceed 500 people. In addition to herding camels and goats, these people will also provide food for passing travelers. Accommodation and water.

The water here is charged.

"If you want to fill a water bladder, you have to pay a silver coin or something equivalent."

There are three types of currency on Vive Continent: Gold, Silver and Copper, and the exchange ratio is 1:10:1000. That is to say, one thousand copper coins can be exchanged for one gold coin, and two copper coins can be used to buy a palm-sized stem. pancake.

But most of the time, ordinary people are more accustomed to bartering. After all, it is not easy to find all kinds of minerals on the Vive Continent now, let alone developing them. It is said that most of the currencies that are still in circulation today are handed down from the past. of.

The water sacs used by Vife people are mostly made of sheep skin and bladders, and they are all about the same size. One water sac can last for two days if you save some water.

Therefore, one silver coin and one water bag of water is really expensive.

The merchants said: "Actually, the price is quite fair, because they are the only place with anyone nearby. If you don't replenish drinking water here, you may not be able to make it to the next oasis."

Rare things are more expensive, they all understand this.

After seeing the oasis, they didn't approach it rashly. Instead, the caravan familiar with the place sent people to contact it first.

The people sent out came back soon, and the other party said that they could be allowed to enter, but they didn't have enough places, and I'm afraid they couldn't accommodate all of them.

This is exactly what the monsters wanted. Looking at the dilapidated small city surrounded by earthen walls, they couldn't even compare to the Kunle tribe they saw for the first time. They might as well live in tents.

But after all, it was the first crowded place I saw after coming out. The elves were a little curious about it. The Demon King saw that he wanted to go and see, so he waved his hand and let the monsters camp on the spot. They only brought Yvestal and The two maids went in with the merchants to have a look.

No worse than the monsters with abundant reserves, even if they go all the way to Adadara, they will not lack water or food. The water brought by the merchants has almost been consumed, and they need to go in to replenish it.

The devil's mount is too conspicuous. The animal is an elephant that can't be seen in the desert. The gauze sedan chair on it is even more low-key and luxurious. Don't think it's just a black gauze curtain, in order to hold down the black gauze and prevent it from being blown away by the wind , the edge of the canopy on the top of the gauze tent is covered with bead curtains made of black pearls. Most of the bead curtains are only 20 centimeters long, but every other distance there will be one that hangs directly on the guardrail, wrapping the gauze The account is well-pressed, and it is guaranteed that it will not be blown up by the wind.

Those black pearls are all one centimeter in diameter, not too big, but they are the rarest and most precious black pearls among pearls, and there are at least a thousand of them in this gauze sedan chair, their value is simply inestimable.

Up to now, when those businessmen saw the demon king's gauze sedan chair, they still couldn't help but salivate with Venus in their eyes.

So they don't take it out to irritate people.

According to the businessman, this small tribe is called Guma. The people of the Guma tribe did not live here before. At that time, they grew a plant similar to flax and used it to weave cloth into cloth. However, the place where they lived later The environment is getting worse and worse, and there is no way to grow hemp and weave cloth, so they migrate here to raise goats and camels, and then use their wool to weave cloth and blankets.

This is a very ingenious race.

The people of the Guma tribe have almost no variation in appearance, and they look no different from ordinary humans. On the Vif Continent, this means that their combat effectiveness is very weak.

The original mutation seemed to be started by humans in order to improve their survivability. Although at the beginning, this kind of mutation was feared by humans, but now, the more serious the mutation, the stronger their own ability.

Like the ancient Ma tribe, only the teeth and nails become sharper, and they are considered weak.

No wonder they can only hide in such a small oasis.

When the elves and the devil entered with the merchants, the Guma people guarding the wall seemed to be watching them nervously. He heard a man who seemed to be a small boss ask Sam and the others in front of them who they were.

Obviously everyone is wrapped up tightly, but they are the only ones who are guarded by the other party.Turning his head to look, he found the reason.

Most of the people in the caravan are about 1.7 meters tall, and there are a few tall people who are only about as tall as elves, and the Guma people are even shorter.

On the side of the elf and the devil, the two maids are about 1.7 meters tall. Although the elf is not as tall as the devil, he is 1.8 meters tall. The succubus is a little taller than him, and the devil is the tallest in the whole team, breaking through 1.9 With that pair of magic horns, Mijia was almost two meters closer.

At the same time, not only the height, but also the perennial drought makes the Vive people unable to eat enough most of the time, making them look very thin.

But on the Demon King's side, the thinnest one should be the elf, but his thinness is just that he has no muscles and fat, which is not comparable to the Vives at all.

In addition, although the demon king has restrained, but still can make people feel the dangerous momentum, all the conditions are integrated, it is strange that those Guma people can not notice them.
