Chapter 35 That's OK

Isabel's last prayer went smoothly.

The answer she gave was a little different from what Lu Yao thought.

According to the deceased cave monster, this is what happened.

This group of cave monsters lived in caves deep in the mountains. There were 28 of them in total. They were a resource-poor population. They could neither farm nor trade, and their intelligence was relatively low. Most of the time, they hid underground to eat insects.

The competition underground was too fierce, and there were not enough insects to eat, so this group of cave monsters ventured to the ground to hunt.

Unfortunately, the successive years of drought and long winters led to a lack of water and coldness around. There were fewer animals in the mountains, and some of the remaining ones fled to the forest.

In this difficult time, the leader of the cave monsters, the mutant cave monster, made a bold decision: to find food farther down the mountain!

In the process, the cave monsters met a new group, the Salt Pond Tribe.

The Salt Pond Tribe outside the mountain made a deal with them and was willing to provide them with the meat, wheat and salt they needed. In return, the cave monsters would work for them.

Even cave dwellers need to eat.

So they agreed.

The cave dwellers began to carry goods for the Salt Pond Tribe, digging passages in the mountains, mining underground, and logging outside the mountains... In short, it was all hard work. In order to fill their stomachs, the cave dwellers had to work hard to move bricks.

It was impossible to snatch things from the Salt Pond Tribe.

Because the Salt Pond Tribe was protected by the Corruptors.

Compared with the cave dwellers, the Corruptors were more fearless and more powerful. Even if their bodies were chopped into seven or eight pieces, as long as they could be pieced together, they would slowly revive.

Under the threat of the Corruptors, the cave dwellers could only work honestly and earn some insignificant food.

After day after day of hard work, the cave dwellers finally met the requirements of the Salt Pond Tribe, reopened the passage from the mountains to the east, and got some belated food.

At this time, they were carrying stones and met the Pig Fish Brothers of the Garlic Tribe.

The Pig Fish Brothers were very excited when they saw them, and shouted that they would rush to attack for the tribe.

They were the first to start.

At that time, there were only two cave monsters, who were beaten by the pig fish brothers and hunters and fled all the way back to the mountains. The pig fish brothers still pursued them.

When the cave monsters' reinforcements arrived, the situation began to reverse.

The final result was that the hero headhunter and four hunters died in battle, and only the hero fisherman escaped with his life.

Lu Yao repeatedly confirmed the authenticity of the ghost's words.

"Low-level dead cannot lie under the threat of the Sea of ​​Death."

Isabel said it was credible.

After listening to these descriptions, Lu Yao pinched his nose and his eyelids twitched.

This human gene of seeking death and expansion was also in turmoil in the tribal era.

If you don't seek death, you won't die.

Although many people know this truth, they still show an attitude of "I know but I just want to try."

On the bright side, the pig fish brothers' proactive attack exposed the hidden dangers of the cave monsters in advance.

The Salt Pond Tribe controlled this group of monsters in disguise, like a sword hanging over the head of the Garlic Tribe. Dealing with it early is also a precaution.

Lu Yao is still wary of the Salt Pond Tribe behind him.

This group of villains actually have the ability to enslave monsters and drive them to work for themselves. Their threat has been raised to another level in Lu Yao's mind.

Since we have already bumped into them, let's just start with this group of the biggest threats.

Lu Yao gave Isabel the latest instructions: investigate the mountains and find out the settlements of the Salt Pond Tribe.

After receiving the order, Isabel began to search in the mountains.

...

In addition to normal residents, there are several ghost residents from the ghost town of Saniluo in the Garlic Tribe. Of course, ordinary people don't know and can't see them.

Among these people, the leader is a ghost named Scott. From a work point of view, he is a bit like the resident death god of the Garlic Tribe.

They search for wandering ghosts everywhere here, and through persuasion and guidance, they will bring these ghosts back to Saniluo voluntarily.

Scott came to the place where the headhunter died, and the body had been moved to the forest by the Garlic Tribe for burial.

He called out: "My fellow sleepers wandering here, please come out and see me."

Five ghosts slowly appeared on the ground.

The bodies of the headhunters and others were translucent, completely different from normal pixelated people.

"Outside the southern desert, there is a city of the dead called Saniluo... They also believe in the great God Yao, and the power of the gods created that place..."

Scott didn't say a few words, and the headhunter said: "I am willing to go to Saniluo!"

The other four hunters were also willing to go with him.

Unlike ordinary people, ghosts move much faster. They ignore many geographical obstacles, so they walk in a straight line all the way, crossing mountains and ridges and crossing the desert.

Since the sandworms were killed by Isabel and dared not drill out of the ground, the desert is also safe at present.

After entering Saniluo, the headhunters and their party also gained the exclusive abilities of ghosts.

...

[Hero Lv2] Headhunter

Attack 3 Defense 2 Knowledge 0 Mana 0 Luck 0 Morale 0

[Ability]

Tracking Lv1: Can identify traces left by various people and animals.

Avoidance Lv1: Can avoid damage caused by some attacks. Compared to your weak life, this probability is higher.

…

The only thing that made Lu Yao regretful was that the talents of Headhunter and Yuzao, the two heroes of the first generation Garlic Tribe, were very average. So far, they are still stuck at Lv2.

This is also the reason why Lu Yao did not pay attention to training them.

After all, it was still the era of tribal civilization, which really could not withstand population consumption. Most of the time it was development and management. In addition, with the strategic nuclear weapon Isabel, there is indeed no need for the Pigfish Brothers.

…

When the ghosts entered Sanilo, the Garlic tribe was holding a funeral ceremony for the hero, mourning and remembering everything the headhunter had done for the tribe.

"He is one of the two heroes born in the tribe who bravely fought against the demon cultists and risked his life to save others."

"He is a believer approved by the gods, the embodiment of strength and courage, and a symbol of never giving in."

"He is our pride, our forerunner and the proof of our existence."

Prophets and shamans each expressed praise for the headhunters.

There was a sense of sadness throughout the Garlic tribe, and sad expressions appeared on the heads of the little people.

Suddenly a light bulb lit up above the prophet's head: "We want to build a monument!"

"To commemorate these heroes who dedicated their lives to the tribe, it also serves as a warning to future generations not to forget these glorious and tortuous histories!"

The other little people in the tribe agreed.

"monument!"

"Monument! Monument to the tribe!"

"Record the heroes! Record the tribe!"

So many little people, under the guidance of the prophets and shamans, built a square stone tower with stones, which looked like a large tombstone.

A message appeared on the game screen.

[The Garlic Tribe invented the monument, and everyone's intelligence improved slightly. 】

[Discover the prototype of a usable wonder: the monument. 】

[The faith required to build a wonder for the first time is reduced. 】

Lu Yao was stunned.

There is such a thing.

He clicked on the Miracle column and flipped to [Wonder] at the end.

Sure enough, the cost of [Wonder] has been reduced from the previous 5,000 Faith points to 4,500 points, which is a 10% discount.

Lu Yao thought about it for a while and understood the way to go.

The simulator encourages players who are trainees to build wonders as early as possible, enter the pantheon of gods, and also enter the crawling area from the safe area to start the next stage as early as possible.

However, Lu Yao has no such plans for the time being.

His plan is to first achieve the small goal of dominating Novice Village.

Thanks to Qisuye for supporting 100 starting coins.
