Chapter 648 - 648 Jinx (2)
648 Jinx (2)
This time, the name successfully attracted Zhuge Qing’s attention.
After all, the first thing he thought of was the Guardian Divine Beast that usually looked like a big red rooster in the Academy Dojo.
If there was such a beast here, and if someone contracted it…
This thought appeared in Zhuge Qing’s mind for a moment before it was extinguished by him.
A divine beast of this level, and a wild one at that, would probably be at least Level 8 even if it was not at Level 9.
It was better not to seek death for no reason.
“Well, let’s put the Ice Crystal Phoenix matter aside for now.”
“Can you still find your way to the Snow Mountain Clan? Or rather, are you willing to go and take a look?”
Thinking of Ghost Girl’s depressed expression when she saw the buildings of the Snow Mountain Clan, Zhuge Qing did not say anything.
After all, the Snow Mountain was so big that they didn’t necessarily have to go to the territory of the Snow Mountain Clan.
Ghost Girl did not hesitate this time and nodded.
“I’ll be fine.”
After asking this, Zhuge Qing looked at the corpses of the Ice Blade Lizards on the ground and put them into his spatial bracelet.
Then, he went back to look for Xing Rong and said.
“I want the corpses of those Ice Blade Lizards. I’ll exchange crystal cores for them for you when we get back later. How about that?”
Xing Rong naturally had no reason to refuse.
Then, after discussing, everyone began to change shifts and sleep in the second half of the night.
Although they had just been stimulated by the battle.
But it ended as quickly as it had come, so sleep quickly overtook them.
This time, in order not to be sleepy and negligent, they simply let their beasts keep watch.
After all, beasts wouldn’t get sleepy so easily.
—————————————————-
They slept until dawn. Zhuge Qing and the others were not woken up again.
After walking out of the stone house, they could finally see the distant scenery around the Snow Mountain clearly.
After looking around, Zhuge Qing realized that the terrain here was similar to the entrance of a valley.
On the left and right sides were two endless Snow Mountains that reached into the clouds.
The peak could not be seen at all.
Behind them was a rather long and narrow valley.
Up ahead was the cliff.
However, at the edge of the cliff, Zhuge Qing realized that there were still some places to go down.
This should be the mountain path that Ghost Girl had mentioned.
“Come on, let’s go.”
“From what Ghost Girl said, after entering this valley, it seems to be a very wide snowfield.”
Under Zhuge Qing’s call, everyone began to head towards the valley in front of them.
After walking for more than 20 minutes, the group barely reached the entrance of the valley.
From afar, it looked very narrow.
However, when one got closer, they would realize that there was no problem for 20 to 30 people to walk side by side.
However, just as everyone stepped into the valley, Xu Jun looked up and said inexplicably.
“Do you think… if someone throws some rocks down from above, we’ll be trapped here?”
Zhuge Qing was speechless.
Everyone was speechless.
“Alright, stop nagging. Let’s go…”
Zhuge Qing could not be bothered with this guy’s nonsense and began to lead the group forward.
Seeing this, Xu Jun could only mutter and follow.
He remembered that he had accidentally seen a pre-war military book or some other book that had written such a tactic.
Wasn’t he just mentioning it?
Previously, he had not had the chance to see such terrain.
However, Xu Jun also knew that his words were indeed groundless.
How was one going to reach the top of the Snow Mountain?
However, just as they were about 500 to 600 meters into the valley, a deafening roar suddenly sounded above their heads.
The few of them looked up and saw an incomparably huge rock quickly falling from the front and back.
After kicking up a large snowflake, it directly blocked the path in front of Zhuge Qing and the others.
When Li Yao saw this scene, he didn’t think about what to do next. Instead, he glared at Xu Jun beside him.
“You’re really a jinx!”
“Whatever you say comes!”
“Why don’t you say that we can find some Concentration Fruits?”
“You’re always talking about such unlucky things!”
Xu Jun was also stunned.
He… he really just said it casually back then!
How could it be so coincidental?
Moreover, there was obviously no place in this f*cking valley that could throw stones down so quickly, right?
These two boulders blocked the entire valley’s passageway.
These were not small stones…
Each boulder looked like a small house. Xu Jun didn’t think that the people of the Snow Mountain Clan, who were still in the Stone Age, could move such a heavy stone to the peak of the mountain!
Facing this sudden change, Zhuge Qing hurriedly gestured for everyone to put their hands on the Beast Taming Index.
In this situation, if the other party really had hostility towards them, the only thing they could do was to run immediately.
Fortunately, things didn’t go as Zhuge Qing had imagined.
After the two large rocks fell, the people above did not make any further attacks.
Then, they saw more than ten… people?
From a height of about a hundred meters in the middle of the valley, a few people held a paraglider similar to the one Ghost Girl had described before and slowly descended.
Zhuge Qing could tell that they were very familiar with using this thing.
In the end, they landed steadily on top of the two large rocks and looked at them one after another.
Most of these people were wearing clothes made of animal skin and looked rather bloated.
They wore a thick hat on their heads and a large mask on their faces each.
Only their eyes were exposed.
These ten or so people were all dressed like this.
Only the leader in front had slightly better clothing.
The fur looked very new, unlike other people’s animal skin clothes, which were all gathered together and starting to turn black and hard.
Looking at these people, Xing Rong turned to look at the Ghost Girl beside him who was dressed in normal human clothes. He could not figure out that these people who looked like savages were Nethery’s clansmen.
This… looked too different, right?
However, looking at Nethery’s eyes that had lost focus, Xing Rong felt that these people should be from the Snow Mountain Clan…
“Who are you?”
Zhuge Qing’s eyes lit up when she heard that these people’s words were actually the same as theirs. They only had slightly different accents!
What did that mean?
Did this mean that the Beast Taming World was related to the planet they lived on, or the Eastern Continent? Or did it have an entrance and exit?
And this opening was in the hands of the dojo.
However, for some reason, the beasts did not appear for a long time.
At the same time, Zhuge Qing, who had good grades, thought of an even more terrifying possibility…
Mutated beasts and beasts… Could there be a connection between the two?
But… Logically speaking, that shouldn’t be the case…
After all, although both of them were “beasts”, the difference was too great.
Shaking her head, Zhuge Qing retracted her wandering thoughts and looked at the people standing on the rock. She deliberated for a moment and said.
“We’re residents from the grassland. This time… we’re here to help a friend who was lost in the Snow Mountain find her hometown.”
Zhuge Qing did not mention what happened outside.
That might cause more trouble.
In any case, these people did not look like they could go to the grassland.
As expected.
Hearing Zhuge Qing’s words, although the man in the lead did not believe her immediately, he also waved his hand and asked his subordinates to temporarily put down the weapons aimed at Zhuge Qing and the others.
“Grassland?”
“A lost friend from Snow Mountain?”
“Who is it?”
He couldn’t tell which of these people looked like the Snow Mountain Clan.
