Chapter five hundred and sixty simple underground residents
Underworld.
Of the two lightning ghosts, the one who shot the arrow was still stationed at the same place, while the one with the dagger continued to walk deeper underground with Sun Ran. Along the way, he asked about Sun Ran's situation.
"May I have your name?"
"Blue."
"Oh, his name is similar to that of our great elder. His name is Shen Lan. He was a powerful warrior when he was young. What happened to your arm?"
"I was cut off by my opponent during a fight in the arena, but I killed him."
"Well done, you didn't embarrass our clan. My name is Midnight, nice to meet you."
It was Sun Ran's turn to ask questions.
"Is the tribe far from here?"
"Fortunately, we'll be there in another hour's walk. There are more than a thousand of us, living in the Promore Forest. Underground, although we are just an ordinary tribe, we are all very united. Apart from the intrusion of the fungus beasts and the payment of annual tribute,
The other days are very happy." Late Night introduced with a bit of pride.
"Bacteria forest?" Sun Ran heard a new term.
"You'll know when you get to the end of the field." He gave it up late at night.
After walking for more than half an hour, the road ahead began to 'light up'. Luminous mushrooms similar to those on the top of the rock wall began to appear on both sides of the originally deserted road. These mushrooms were very small at first. As they walked along, they became more and more bright.
Big, from just moss covering the ground to
Something like that became as tall as a person, and then became as tall as a big tree. In the end, each mushroom was at least as thick as several people could hug it, tens of meters high, and its caps were as tall as an umbrella, covering
The sky blocks out the sun... It seems that there is no sun under the ground, so it should be 'blocking out the sky and blocking out the stars'.
Each mushroom exudes a shimmering light, some are light blue, bright red, and orange, and are colorful and very beautiful.
Late night smiled and said: "You see it. This is the bacterial forest I am talking about. Don't worry, this area is just the periphery of the bacterial forest and is safe... Look, there is the tribal camp ahead."
Sun Ran looked over and saw only large, fat mushrooms gathered together. The insides of these mushrooms were hollowed out, leaving only a wooden shell. On the shell, there were also many windows and doors.
Blitz ghosts appear among them, including men and women, old and young. It is indeed a complete tribe.
"Okay, Youlan. You stay here and don't move. I'll report the situation to the great elder." He ran towards the largest mushroom house late at night, greeting the lightning ghosts on the way enthusiastically.
Sun Ran stood there and waited.
The people in the tribe had discovered him a long time ago. He had a face and one arm. He was wearing human clothes and had a unique appearance. A large circle of people quickly gathered around him. He stood more than ten meters away and looked at him curiously.
Him.(Human refers to Flash Ghost)
"Big man. Are you from the ground?" A timid voice sounded, and the person who spoke was a little ghost less than one meter tall. From the looks of it, he was a little boy, and Sun Ran's figure looked very small among the people in the circle.
He is quite strong and tall, so he is called Big Man.
Sun Ran nodded: "Yes, I was once captured and made a slave, and now I have escaped."
"Oh~" The villagers suddenly realized and started discussing in whispers.
"He is so strong, and the bone armor on his body is so beautiful. It looks like metal."
"His eyes are also very beautiful. It's a pity that one of his arms is broken and he is disabled. It's such a pity."
"He looks strong, I can feel it."
Sun Ran remained motionless and allowed others to comment. After waiting for about ten minutes, an elderly lightning ghost with a blue exoskeleton and white hair appeared, followed by Midnight.
When the villagers saw the old man appearing, they immediately made way for him and bowed slightly, showing great respect.
The old man was the chief elder of the tribe. He stepped forward and quickly looked at Sun Ran. He had rich experience and could easily get much more information than the villagers.
The first is the other person's eyes.
The eyes hidden under the skeleton mask of ordinary lightning ghosts will also glow, but they are hazy, like a blue mist. But on the opposite side, the light emitted by his eyes is clear-cut and dark blue like water.
It is the outline of the eye. In this light blue base, there is a crystalline dazzling blue-white aperture, which is the eye. There is a little pure black in the bright aperture, which is the pupil.
In short, when the lightning ghost on the opposite side stares at people, a kind of psychological pressure will be invisible to the people being looked at.
Seeing these eyes, the great elder was shocked: "These are azure crystal eyes. To reach this level, you must at least have star warfare skills. This person must be very powerful. It is estimated that the entire tribe together is no match for him."
.”
In addition to the eyes, the great elder also saw hair that was also flowing with clear-cut crystal light, as well as an exoskeleton as blue as ink, and muscles that flowed like water. Everything made this lightning ghost stand out.
After a moment, the great elder made a decision. He opened his arms and said with a smile: "Warrior, welcome home."
Sun Ran bowed his head humbly: "Thank you very much for accepting me." He just wanted to find a place to stay and concentrate on learning the fifth-level star power technique.
This attitude made the Great Elder more and more satisfied. If he had previously evaluated Sun Ran as a warrior, his current evaluation was immediately upgraded to a truly strong man.
Those who like to fight bravely, show off their power, and show off their strength are warriors; those who are restrained, gentle, and calm, cherish every bit of strength, and do not bully the weak are the real strong ones. This is the standard by which the Great Elder views people.
This allowed him to put aside the last doubt in his mind. Such a person could indeed not be a traitor sent by humans on the ground.
The great elder welcomed Sun Ran into the mushroom house, and then served underground specialty food. Several famous people from the tribe also came to accompany him.
Among these people, three are old men, who seem to be elders, and one is a young man. He is very strong, and his appearance is not far different from that of Sun Ran. There is something vaguely strange in his eyes when looking at Sun Ran.
Something provocative.
Soon, from the elder's introduction, Sun Ran learned that this young man's name was Heiye, who was the older brother of Heiye, and was also the most powerful warrior in the tribe!
"Youlan, I've heard about you late at night. You have a rough life. Don't worry, from today on, the tribe will be your home." The elder smiled and handed over a big beetle that looked like a turtle. Beetle
The shell on the back has been cut open and the internal organs have been removed, leaving only tender white meat.
"This is a tiger bug, a delicacy caught in Yeguang Lake. You can try it." The great elder was very enthusiastic.
Sun Ran took it, took out the white meat and tasted it. His eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "It's not greasy or fishy, it's fragrant and slightly sweet, it's really delicious."
I originally thought that the underground world would be very difficult, but now it seems that there are also unique enjoyments here.
His words made several people present laugh, with some contentment on their faces. This man had come back from the ground and was well-informed, so his praise was naturally very weighty.
The first warrior of the tribe laughed in the dark night and said: "You Lan. I see you always carry a knife with you. What is the origin of this knife?"
Sun Ran took off his knife and placed it on the mushroom table, smiling and saying: "In the arena, this knife has always been with me. It is my most trusted comrade."
The great elder glanced at the sword face, which was also blue, and immediately felt his eyes hurt. He didn't dare to look directly at it, and quickly turned his eyes away. He smiled and asked, "What a killing weapon."
Sun Ran put away the knife and nodded: "Indeed. Since I got this knife, one hundred and fifty-five dead souls have fallen under it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Heiye laughed: "There are only one hundred and fifty-five, so I don't see much. In my hunting years, thousands of creatures have fallen under my arrows."
Sun Ran laughed and didn't argue. He took a bite of the white meat and said casually: "It's really not much. I don't like killing people."
The great elder still couldn't stand it: "The beasts you killed are comparable to Youlan's opponents. I heard that those gladiators are among the best."
"It's not the same, they all have one life." Hei Ye chuckled. Then he looked at Sun Ran: "So, you must be very strong. How about we compete?"
Sun Ran shook his head: "My strength is average. Most of the opponents I encounter are stronger than me."
"Come on, come on, don't refuse, let's get down and have a little competition." Heiye insisted on competing. As soon as this man came, he felt that his status as the number one warrior of the tribe was not guaranteed. He was anxious and would do anything wrong.
Out.
The great elder saw it. He wanted to make Hei Ye wake up and see the world, so he didn't stop him. He just said to Sun Ran: "You Lan, Hei Ye is ignorant. How about you compete with him?"
Sun Ran didn't care and said with a smile: "Arm wrestling is not good, it's purely about strength. How about this, let's go outside, I'll draw a one-meter circle on the ground, stand inside and don't move out, don't block, just dodge.
.You shoot me with an arrow ten meters away. As long as I hide out of the circle or get hit by the arrow, I lose. How about that?"
"You have to think carefully, my arrows are going to kill people." Heiye was a little surprised. He just wanted to give this person a blow and had no intention of killing him.
The Great Elder was also a little worried: "Youlan, isn't this bad?" He felt that this man was worthy of coming from the arena, and he was so murderous.
Sun Ran smiled: "It's nothing. In the arena, such a competition is just child's play, and there is no danger to the night."
He raised his eyes and looked at the dark night: "How about it, do you dare to give it a try?"
Hei Ye couldn't stand the excitement and shouted: "Come here, you will be shot by my arrow. If you are shot to death, don't rely on me."
"I'm willing to admit defeat." Sun Ran said with a smile. He was new to the new land and would not be able to impress people unless he showed his real skills.
So Heiye put on his bow and came to the open space outside the mushroom house with Sun Ran.
Sun Ran raised his foot and turned around, drawing a circle on the ground, and then stood quietly in the circle without moving.
Heiye stood ten meters away as agreed, loaded his bow and arrow, and aimed at Sun Ran in the distance.
By this time, the news had spread throughout the tribe, and everyone came to watch the fun, circling inside and outside several times.
Someone shouted to Sun Ran: "Young man, don't be brave, Heiye's archery is the strongest in the tribe."
"Heiye, please be merciful later, he just arrived in our tribe."
There was also a young woman with a hot figure who came out and declared hotly: "Whoever wins, my mother will be his."
"Come on, Melanie, you've already married many men." Someone mocked.
"Do you like it, mom?"
"Everyone be quiet." The great elder spoke, and everyone fell silent. The great elder looked at Heiye and Sun Ran and said, "This game is a friendship discussion. Heiye, you broke the arrow."
"Okay." Heiye obeyed. He didn't want to accidentally kill his own people.
Then the great elder said to Sun Ran: "Youlan, if it doesn't work, just exit the circle or block it with a knife. No one will laugh at you."
Sun Ran smiled and nodded.
"Then, the competition begins!" (To be continued...)
ps: Xiao Mo was forced to go on a blind date one day. It’s hard to disobey his parents’ orders. There are two updates today and one in the evening.
