Soul Echo

The team walked slowly in the low jungle. The abundant sunlight shone through the leaves on Zhong Ye, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

They're moving into high plateaus, where air pressure and oxygen levels drop as altitude rises.

The change in the environment even blocked the flow of inner Qi's interest. Fortunately, the team's speed was not fast, so he had enough time to adapt to this change.

It is also ridiculous to say that when he was in Earth, he climbed the plateau more than once, and even traveled around the world, climbing peaks, diving into the sea to sharpen his body and will, at that time he was not so 'delicate' ', even on the snowy mountains, the battle strength didn't cut much.

But now, the blockage of breath has even made his battle strength go backwards, which may not be as good as when he just came to this world.

- This is fatal and needs improvement.

Zhong Ye began to think about how to make [Breathing Technique] truly a part of his own breathing, and let 'Qi' become another cycle in the body, instead of the way it is now, which needs to be adjusted by himself, otherwise Disruption, confusion.

For this reason, he used [Skill Acquisition Opportunity] once, but he didn't feel anything except the buff of [perception] that he could see on the panel.

Zhong Ye is not discouraged, he doesn't think his assumption is wrong, maybe he just wants to do it to that extent, even for him, it's a little difficult.

There was a shout from the front of the line, and the caravan stopped.

As the altitude increases, the duration and intensity of sunlight will change, meaning the time each day the team travels will also change.

The provinces of Thrace and Macedonia are not rich in water resources, especially in the wilderness, it is not easy to find a water source, and caravans generally can only use their own of fresh water.

Therefore, those who follow this trade route must learn to allocate water resources rationally, otherwise only themselves will suffer.

——It is not only humans who need water, but the horses that pull carts also need water.

When the team stops to rest, the work of the mercenaries begins.

Zhong Ye is also one of them, and they need to investigate the situation around the resting place to make sure that the caravan is not suddenly attacked during the rest - after all, something is inevitable.

If there is danger, remove the danger as soon as possible, whether it is killing or driving away, as long as the danger is removed.

This work is of course hard work, and the caravan did not hire them for their leisure.

Zhong Ye is more difficult and troublesome than others when doing this work.

He is not a wilderness survival expert. He doesn't know where there is something, and he has never done such trivial work before.

As hard as he is, are the mercenaries who act with him.

At the beginning of the work, the people hadn't dispersed, they had to move with Zhong Ye, and then they were caught and questioned by Zhong Ye who knew nothing, and they didn't dare to resist - even if They all know that Zhong Ye has a good personality and treats people kindly, but after being beaten by him once, no matter how he looks at him, he is a little frightened.

Zhong Ye has learned a lot, and the caravan is safe, only a bunch of mercenaries caught by him asking all sorts of questions are exhausted.

In order to ensure that they have sufficient physical strength to deal with danger, the mercenaries will choose three meals a day like the caravan guards.

It's just that the bodyguards' food is provided by the caravan, while the mercenaries need to bring their own dry food. Some people prefer to endure it for a while, which can save some money.

If it is a team organized by a big businessman, it may also provide the mercenaries with a lunch at noon, but the caravan that Zhong Ye is following is a temporary set up to deal with the autumn monster disaster. Team up and each pay a penny to hire guards.

The time slowly came to the afternoon, the most violent period of the sun passed, and the caravan set off again.

But not long after the team set off, Zhong Ye heard the movement from the front. Before he could remind the team, the guards who went to explore the way ran back.

"It's the goblins!" the guard shouted, "a large group of goblins, at least a dozen!"

The goblins are said to be Mythological Era, when the time and space of the Dan world was not stable yet , a species traversed from the foreign world.

They have only low-level intelligence, no language of their own, and the way of communication is similar to that of orangutans and monkeys. They all roar and cooperate with body movements.

Although the potential of this species is very low, and there are no transcenders in a whole race, they are very prolific, producing several litters a year, and several at a time.

Even though only some of the cubs can grow up, their reproduction rate is almost multiplied.

Not only are they prolific, they also grow at an amazing rate, a goblin pup can crawl after birth, walk upright after five days, run and eat solid food after half a month , teeth and nails are fully grown, and at three months, they are considered adults with combat capability.

Goblins are in the breeding season all year round. Although they are also divided into males and females, as long as there is only a single sex in a group, some goblins will change their genders and gain fertility.

Having the mighty body of a mammal, yet being able to switch genders, make goblins a very troublesome monster.

They are in the food chain - they will be hunted by carnivores if they fail to develop a group, and lone wolves can easily kill less than ten goblins; they can also jump out of the food chain - if the group can When it grows to more than ten, their number will explode in a short period of time, and underage goblins one or two months old also have battle strength, but they are not as strong as adult goblins.

That's why this alien species is difficult to eradicate. As long as a few are released, they may have to face a large group again next year.

There was no movement here when they were resting, but now there are more than a dozen goblins, indicating that those goblins are active.

"They are all grown-up goblins? Are there young and old?"

Captain, the escort, summoned the caravan guards and mercenaries to prepare for defense.

Hearing Captain's question, the guard thought for a while, then shook his head, "There are no young or old, they are all adult goblins."

"It seems that there should be a goblin nearby. Horde..." The guard Captain looked worriedly towards the front of the caravan.

They haven't been harassed by goblins here in previous years, indicating that those goblins may have only appeared around this year.

This trade route is the main trade route between Serdica and Skupee. Before their caravan set off, other caravans passed through here, and none of them conflicted with this goblin tribe. ?

Thinking for a moment, the guard Captain gave up thinking.

He is only Captain of a trifling caravan, these problems are not his need to worry about, all he has to do is clear the obstacles on the road ahead of the caravan and defend the caravan from attacks.

Leave most of the escorts and mercenaries around the caravan to prevent attacks, and the escort Captain leads the rest to destroy the goblins that are 'blocking the road'.

——Even though it may not have been deliberately blocking the road, it just happened to be on the way the caravan was advancing.

"I think you all know the rules."

On the way, the guard Captain said to the first-class mercenary Zhong Ye with a serious expression: "The goblins look similar to us humans. but they are even more related to us than dogs! They are only hostile to us, don't show mercy to them, kill them all after seeing them."

Zhong Ye also participated After this action, although he didn't know much about the goblins in the world of Dan, as an Earth person in the 22nd century, how could he not know what a 'goblin' was.

The goblins of this world belong to the kind of goblins who are good goblins if they do not appear in front of humans. They are more like biological weapons than an independent race.

Someone among the closed beta players studied this creature and came to the conclusion that they hate any kind of animal on the world and cannot coexist with any animal.

Now he already knows that Dao Pill world is a real world, and he will not be meticulous and soft on the ground.

The villages captured by goblins and the merchants killed by goblins are all living people with their own relatives and friends.

If he was kind to the goblins and let them go, then whose fault would these goblins kill again in the future?

With the big sword on his back, Zhong Ye turned his head and looked towards the jungle not far away.
