Chapter 689: Chapter 692 Picking Up a Beauty Halfway_1
Just then, the little hamster suddenly looked alertly ahead.
"Who?" asked Yang Gang cautiously.
Then, a young woman’s voice suddenly sounded, "That, it’s mine."
Following this, the woman’s figure appeared.
Yang Gang clicked his tongue.
What a pure woman!
The woman was about twenty years old, a typical western woman. Seeing Yang Gang staring at her, she blushed, "That’s mine."
"Huh?" only then did Yang Gang react, his face stunned, "Really? This style doesn’t match your youthful beauty at all!"
"That.." The woman started to speak again, but she hesitated.
"Ahem, anyway, that stream over there must be two or three kiloters from here. How did you get here so quickly?" To defuse the awkward atmosphere, Yang Gang found a topic to chat about.
"Oh, actually I’m a Beast Tar. I rode a falcon over." After finishing, she added, "Oh, sorry, I haven’t introduced myself yet. My na is Lucy. Clito. You can just call
Lucy."
"Lucy, huh. It’s a pretty nice na," Yang Gang laughed.
Lucy chuckled, "You don’t need to console . Actually, I know my na is as common as it can be in the west. And you?"
"My na is Yang Gang and I’m from Huaxia." After pausing for a mont, Yang Gang looked at Lucy, "Are you Australian? Your accent sounds local."
Lucy’s eyes flashed with an indescribable glow, quickly hidden deep within her gaze—unnoticed by Yang Gang.
"Um... how should I put it? I was actually born here in the Land of Fallen; oh, it was called the Krolun Area back then. During the Monster disaster 18 years ago, we were evacuated from our hos by the governnt without any warning. I was only two years old then. This is my first ti back here since I left when I was two."
"Ah, that explains it," Yang Gang nodded.
"Did you co to the Land of Fallen to eliminate the monsters?" Lucy asked again.
"Well, of course. Monsters are mankind’s greatest enemies."
"Greatest enemies.." Lucy’s expression remained indifferent, "But then, I later heard that back then, plenty of people couldn’t evacuate the Land of Fallen and the governnt left them to their own devices. Are the monsters also to bla for this?"
"Well.." Yang Gang pondered for a mont before admitting, "To be honest, it seems likelier that mankind would destroy ourselves rather than being destroyed by monsters. With the amount of nuclear weapons the major powers currently possess, if all of them were to detonate, it would be enough to cause mankind’s extinction twice over. Upon reflection, humans are truly horrifying creatures."
Lucy looked at Yang Gang and laughed lightly, "You’re quite an interesting person."
"Am I?" Yang Gang chuckled, "Alright, you get changed. I promise I won’t peek."
"Okay, thank you."
"Uh, no, it was my mistake."
After saying that, Yang Gang turned his back.
"Alright, I’m done." Lucy’s voice resounded from behind him.
Yang Gang turned around. Lucy blushed slightly, looking sowhat shy.
He shifted his waist a bit and looked up at the starry sky, "Seems like dawn is near; I should head back."
While it was a pleasant encounter, they were still in the Land of Fallen, causing Yang Gang to regain his sanity.
"Uh.." Lucy hurriedly spoke, her hesitation apparent, but in the end she continued, "This ti, I ca to the Land of Fallen behind my parents’ backs. Even though I’m a Beast Tar, controlling beastly monsters, especially those from the Other World, isn’t easy. It’s possible that before you get a chance to ta them, they might eat you. So, I... I’m actually quite scared when I’m alone.."
At this point, Lucy suddenly looked up at Yang Gang, "If it’s not too much trouble, could I accompany you? If we encounter any monsters in the future, I might be able to help a little."
"Uh, but I’m not alone.."
"Oh.. would I be a burden on you?" Suddenly, Lucy looked at Yang Gang with teary eyes.
Dammit~ this is my weakness!
Yang Gang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, carefully considered it, then said, "Alright."
"Thank you!" Imdiately, Lucy’s gloom turned into sunshine.
By the ti they reached the camping site, dawn had already broken. Bai Tong and Nana had already awoken.
Seeing Yang Gang return, Nana imdiately ran over like a small bird, "Brother Gang, where did you go?"
Only after she had reached Yang Gang did Nana notice the woman following him.
She looked at Lucy, her expression slightly hesitant.
"What’s wrong?" Lucy asked gently.
"Uh, nothing." Nana averted her gaze and looked at Yang Gang, "Brother Gang, who is this?"
"Ah, her na is Lucy. From now on, she’ll also be one of us," Yang Gang explained.
Bai Tong walked over, took a glance at Lucy, and laughed lightly, "Hmm...Yang Gang, you sure have a habit of picking up beauties halfway."
Yang Gang broke out in cold sweat.
Lucy looked around, then said, "You guys are camping here? There is absolutely no defense. If you get surrounded by monsters, you’ll be done for."
"Hehe, actually, we had a battle with a Dark Moon Sect Witch last night and we won gained a big victory. So, at least for tonight, it should be safe," Bai Tong laughed.
Lucy was visibly surprised, "You battled with a Dark Moon Sect Witch and won? It’s said that Dark Moon Sect Witches are able to command the monsters from the Other World. How did you manage that? Oh, right, what does the witch look like? The Dark Moon Sect Witches have always been the most mysterious existences in the Land of Fallen."
"Hmm.." Bai Tong touched her chin, "Well, to be honest, the moonlight was too dim then, and the witch was veiled. We couldn’t see her face."
She then turned to Nana, "Nana, do you know what your witch looks like?"
Nana shook her head, "I don’t know. The Witch has always been veiled."
"She must be hideous, that’s why she had to use the veil to cover it," Yang Gang confidently declared.
"Huh? You sound so certain. Have you seen her?" Lucy asked curiously.
"Hmph! Could a woman with such a poisonous heart be good looking? Even if she were, it wouldn’t wash away her evil deeds. As a witch, instead of teaching her followers to do good, she incited them to hunt humans. I can’t think of a more malicious woman than her." Yang Gang ground his teeth, thinking about how the witch had wanted to feed Nana to the monsters.
