1074: Chapter 1074: Sword of Ti
Zhou Yuanzhu pushed the person aside with a palm and said coldly, “If you want to die, go find a place to do it yourself, don’t make
take the bla!”
The woman tried to persist, but was twisted by the arm and pinned down again.
Zhou Yuanzhu pointed to the corpse in front and said, “If you really want to die, go ahead and take a bite!
Go on!”
Seeing the pitch-dark corpse, the woman subconsciously turned her head away, perhaps realizing that her resolve to die wasn’t so firm.
After being let go, she just lay on the ground and started crying.
“Give them sothing to eat,” Ruan Qiyuan said.
Zhou Yuanzhu was sowhat angry, but seeing Guan Shu nod, she held back her anger and started distributing food to them.
Ruan Qiyuan himself had brought a bucket of milk, which he took out, heated up, and gave each of them a small cup, then poured two big cups for Mr.
Xu, “Mr.
Xu, since you’re with a baby, you’ll need milk.”
Xu Huo climbed down from the shelter, expressed his thanks, opened the door, and handed the milk to Tan Qi.
“114 has been gone for so long,” Ruan Qiyuan said with a sigh, looking in the direction where the chanical Being had left.
Xu Huo pointed at the ti, “If they can’t find the place, they will return after dawn.”
Ruan Qiyuan nodded and started chatting casually with him.
At first glance, this person seed like the kind who couldn’t utter a word even with three sticks, but Ruan Qiyuan found that once familiar, he could actually talk quite a bit.
During their conversation, he deliberately explained to him the difference between the Holy Sword Society and the original Holy Sword Society.
After the original Holy Sword Society split, the core mbers were also divided into two factions.
One faction adhered to the philosophy the Society was founded upon; though they opposed the Ga Governnt, they would never attack ga base governnts or other district governnts without a valid reason.
They also had strict standards for recruiting mbers, usually requiring a certain position within the Society to be eligible for nominating mbers.
The other faction was extrely radical, willing to use any ans necessary, regardless of good or evil, to strike at the Ga Governnt.
Sotis their thods were cruel and despicable.
Moreover, anyone who held a Swordless Token could basically beco a mber if they went to a Holy Sword Society base, including Cannibal Players.
Due to the radical faction’s widespread netting and high-profile head Players seeking attention, they developed better and gained more fa.
Thus, when ntioning the Holy Sword Society, people thought of that vicious, uncompromising anti-governnt organization, rather than a healthy and upward legal organization like the Player Association.
Of course, to the Ga Governnt, even the original Holy Sword Society wasn’t necessarily legal.
“To put it simply, you all have the sa goal, just chose different paths,” Xu Huo summarized.
“But they are on the wrong path,” Ruan Qiyuan said.
“The original intention of founding the Holy Sword Society was to allow the weak to live better lives.
They not only bully players but also don’t spare ordinary people, bringing disasters to the weak.
What difference does it make from the Ga Governnt?”
“From a certain perspective, they have succeeded,” Xu Huo said.
Ruan Qiyuan fell silent for two seconds before speaking again, “That’s why we changed the emblem and the tokens of the Holy Sword Society.”
“Originally, the emblem was a sword, and different ranks were distinguished by the number of swords and the color of tokens.
The shape of the sword was modeled after a Super Prop collected by the Ga Governnt, carved with war marks intentionally made by Artifact Makers, symbolizing the will to fight.
Now we have erased the battle marks and changed it to a dial face.”
As he spoke, he took out a silver Token, half a palm-sized, oval-shaped, with the emblematic long sword cramd with dials of various sizes.
In the center, the most conspicuous one indicated the sa starting ti of the Hengxing as Xu Huo’s prop wristwatch for the A1 Wormhole Point.
“This signifies the starting ti of Hengxing,” Ruan Qiyuan said.
“It represents that the will of the Holy Sword Society can only be proven over ti.”
Xu Huo could tell that when he said these words, he was filled with a noble ideal and also deeply believed in his philosophy.
“Then I wish you success,” Xu Huo said.
“Doesn’t Mr.
Xu want to join the Holy Sword Society?” Ruan Qiyuan said with enthusiasm, “I can tell you’re a person who appears cold outside but is warm inside.
Otherwise, you wouldn’t have saved those two kids!”
“I admire your determination, but please allow
to decline,” Xu Huo responded.
“I prefer to go it alone.”
Ruan Qiyuan wasn’t skilled at persuasion, so he sighed in disappointnt upon hearing this, “Our ideals are different.”
Xu Huo smiled and said nothing more.
Since none of them was in the mood for rest, after eating, they set out on their journey again.
Leading the way with insect repellent, they smoothly left the territory of the Land Jellyfish.
However, as they went further, there was less and less grass, and the ground slowly cracked open, dust increased, and even the air beca turbid.
“This rain is useless,” Chi Minghong caught a few drops, rubbed them, and said, “This rain is sticky.
What’s in it?”
“Prop detection shows it contains fine mineral particles and plant components, but we don’t know which plant these fluff-like fibers co from,” said Zhou Yuanzhu.
“We haven’t seen any similar plants all the way here.”
“The first dry crack area I encountered had several mountain bodies shaped like volcanoes,” Xu Huo said.
“It was all erupted from deep underground; it doesn’t look like a natural formation, but it was too deep for
to go down and check.”
“The rain was heavier there.”
It had been speculated that the unusual hunger they experienced might be due to the Black Rain.
Having walked for so long without discovering any traces left by humans, Guan Shu couldn’t help saying, “Perhaps this is a district that humans abandoned a long ti ago.”
“I don’t know what erged from underground, but if Black Rain can cause hunger, and vast tracts of land aren’t able to support plant growth, the extinction of humans would be a matter of ti.
Probably only those vigorous Different Species would be able to survive.”
“The Different Species need to eat as well,” Chi Minghong said.
“Just from what we saw yesterday, without enough food, so many of them couldn’t possibly survive.
There must be places rich in species here; we just haven’t found them yet.”
“We’re idle anyway.
If we find it, we win.
If we don’t, we lose nothing!”
It seems to make sense.
But reality is often more cruel than imagination; half an hour later, everyone was suffering from extre thirst, especially the girl who had bitten others; her health was the worst, and she even started hallucinating at one point.
“We can’t just keep drinking water freely.
Otherwise, let’s go back and take another direction,” Lin Qiao suggested.
“We have no other choices,” Xu Huo said.
The Different Species wouldn’t leave their nests without good reason, so it’s very likely that their nests were in the west, while the south was a dry cracked area, leaving only the east and slightly safer areas to the north.
Now they were heading northeast.
If this path proved impassable, they would have no choice but to cross the dry cracked areas or try their luck in the areas where the Different Species Group resided.
Even the players were feeling frustrated at this situation.
Guan Shu and the others didn’t care about getting wet anymore, they drank half a bottle of water and took off their protective suits to cool down, Zhou Yuanzhu said, “I’d rather fight with the Different Species than suffer through days like these!”
Xu Huo was using his binoculars and stopped when he looked in the three o’clock direction, lightly laughing, “Opportunity has arrived.”
