Chapter 131 Wolf Smoke
Zero has to admit how beautiful the graceful figure shuttles between various mutant plants in front of his eyes. Atesha's movements were light and with the smell of dance. She jumped, as if it were the heartbeat of the whole world, drawing the viewer's sight.
From the soft and boneless hands, to the amazing curved waist, to the slender and strong legs. In Atessa's movements, her limbs naturally showed a sense of rhythm, and it was almost impossible to take her eyes away from the beautiful figure.
Just this morning, Gunat asked the patriarch of the Semite clan to leave from the Death Canyon with zero to save more time crossing the Death Ridge. Originally, Athesa was unwilling, because she and many Semites had a natural hostility to outsiders like Zero. But like other ethnic groups, Athesha has only the highest respect for Gounat, who has almost changed the fate of the Semites.
Since the request was put forward by Goonat, neither the patriarch nor Athesa can save Goonat's face. So the black girl reluctantly took Ling on her way. It seemed that in order to be angry, Artessa took Zero to the dangerous mutaphyte. Fortunately, Goonat gave them some powder before leaving.
These inconspicuous powders can hide the taste of Zero and Moni, so that most of the mutabulent plants on Death Ridge will treat them as ordinary trees. But such powder does not work for mutabits, which is why the two Semites were able to find zero through the forest last night, but were attacked by shield snakes.
In this way, Athessa and Zero were fine, but Moni couldn't stand it. The silver-haired girl's face was full of sweat, and her body temperature rose because she kept rushing on the road, so that Moni's whole face flushed unnaturally. For this girl, who is only twelve or three years old, Athessa's hostility to her has slightly decreased.
What's more, although Moni is a minor, she has shown the amazing potential of a stunning woman. For beautiful things, Athessa, who has lived in the jungle for many years, knows how to appreciate them. Although she doesn't say anything, she likes Monica very much. Seeing that the little girl was so tired, Artessa couldn't bear to move on. What's more, she keeps her hostile partner and doesn't breathe at all.
Looking at Zero, Artessa knew that even if she ran like this for a day, Zero may not be more tired than her.
So the three of them found a place to rest. Artessa grew up on Death Ridge. Unlike outsiders like Zero, black girls can easily distinguish the difference between ordinary plants and mutants. Under the leadership of Atesa, the three found a safer forest area and rested under a towering fir tree.
Zero took out a cowhide bag from the marching bag, which contained pure water from the source of life of the Semites. There are still as many as five or six cowhide bags like this. Naturally, Zero doesn't have these things, but they are the equipment of Gunat's previous expeditions, and today he gave them to Zero.
stuffed the cowhide bag into Moni, who was not polite. Moni, who was so thirsty, took the water bag, but still drank three sips moderately and gave it back zero. The girl knew that those bags of clean water were not much, and they could only save money for seven or eight days, so Moni drank very little, even if she was still thirsty.
Zero drank less than her. He only took a small sip. But his physique is different from Monica's. Although it is only a mouthful of water, it can ensure the amount needed by body organs for most of the day.
Atessa did not rest. She stood on the treetops nearly 20 meters away from the ground and pointed to the front and said, "Death Valley is coming. You can rest for 10 minutes and then continue on your way."
Zero bitter smile, he couldn't hear that Athesa didn't want to stay with them at all. The black girl just wanted to finish her task quickly and go home. Zero climbed to the fir tree like Artessa. The black girl immediately retreated, and Zero also interestingly stepped on the treetops on the other side to keep a distance from her. From the front of the two, they are already at the highest point on a hill somewhere. Further ahead, there is a steep downhill road. This jungle vegetation covering the whole Death Ridge disappeared abruptly as it seemed to be cut by scissors at the foot of the mountain.
Outside the green edge like a boundary line, there are red and brown rocks.
This reddish-brown "carpet" extends to the area called Death Valley by the Semites. Although that place is called a canyon, when I saw it, I didn't know what the canyon was. It was clear that a continuous mountain range was ploughed out of the valley through the mountain by something in the middle. It's just that this gully is too huge to form the landform of a small canyon.
In this canyon, Zero saw countless blue light floating. They spread throughout the canyon, occupying every gap and frowning. These blue light are death flowers. All the canyon has the name of death, because of the special landform in the canyon. Every day, the valley is windy, and the death flowers fly all over the sky, becoming the natural barrier of the death canyon.
Looking at the canyon, Zero guessed that most of it was knocked out by the huge meteorite at the time of the cataclysm. It is also because of the passage or even fall of meteorites that the canyon is full of radiation. And it is because of them that the deadly flower of Death Flower has been made. Even the strong radiation and animal and plant changes in the whole Death Ridge are probably due to this nearby canyon.
When this natural magnificent scene is often shocked, he suddenly heard Athessa next to him scream. I don't know when the black girl half turned around and looked in the direction they came to cover her mouth and exclaimed.
He also followed, and his heart beat violently. In the mountains and jungle of Death Ridge, a very dazzling wolf smoke rose up. From the direction of zero, the wolf smoke is not as thick as the arm, but if you convert the distance, it is a huge smoke dragon as thick as ten meters. In other words, there is a huge fire in that direction.
Is it a wildfire? Zero thought, but saw the girl trembling all over. Atessa grew up in the mountains, so she naturally hasn't seen wildfires. What's more, although the wolf smoke was huge, there was no fierce fire. Zero wondered what Athesa was afraid of.
He was about to ask, but the girl suddenly jumped off the tree. Ling hurried down and shouted, "What's the matter!"
"It's our village... Our village is on fire!" Ataisha shouted, and the girl's eyes already overflowed. She couldn't care about zero any more, so she turned around and ran in the direction of the Semitic village.
Zero immediately picked up Moni and quickly followed Athesha. The fire in the Semitic village is very abrupt. Even if it is an ordinary plant in this jungle, the water in its body is extremely high, and it is difficult to catch fire naturally.
In addition, as soon as they left, the village burned up. No matter how you look at it, the artificial traces are more obvious.
This return trip was so anxious that both of them raised their speed to the limit. Zero has a fifth-order agile enhanced speed, and it is not slow to run with Moni on your back. Rarely, Athesa's speed was not much slower than him. The two quickly swept through the jungle, leaving only two faint shadows. Not to mention that the mutable plants can't be caught, even the mutabulary beasts hidden in the mountains were not discovered until they skimmed.
In this way, the two saved half of their time and returned to the Semitic village more than an hour later. However, when I came to the entrance of the village, I was stunned.
The whole village was flooded by fire, big trees, wooden houses... All the things that can be burned are in the sea of fire. About 13 wooden stakes were erected at the entrance of the village, and the Semitic men on the stakes were passed by and nailed to the stakes like a string of burns. The wooden piles are arranged in two rows, and one of them is not a Semitic, but the prophet Gunat.
Gunat's clothes were peeled off, and his palms, chest, throat and legs were nailed through and fixed on a cross-shaped stake. Blood flowed all over the ground under the stake. Someone wrote a line of words next to him with blood.
"Zero, I'm waiting for you!"
Zero immediately knew who did it.
