Chapter 324: Entering the Village
A few people put away their fun and cautiously walked into the village. This village was larger than the one they had just experienced, but the buildings were all in dilapidated shape.
The trees and houses made of mud looked a little eerie in the darkness, but there were bright lights burning in front of each house and inside, which still gave it a warm feeling.
As for the lights used for lighting, you can see that a specially made wick is placed in a piece of energy crystal, hanging quietly on the roof and swaying in the breeze.
"There was no high-end energy such as electricity, no large electrical appliances, and no good lighting equipment. It should be 1,500 years ago in the Zhanlan calendar."
As soon as she came in, Lesa frowned and muttered softly.
"The wars during the chaos caused civilization to regress a year ago. The fledgling technologies were all devoured by the flames of war. It was not until around 1450 in the Azure Calendar that electricity and other more useful energy sources were popularized across the continent. In some remote places, it was not until 1500
It was only popularized in 2000. Before that, most of the energy crystals were collected and used as energy after simple conversion. Similar items like the flashlight you once brought appeared during that time. They are still used here.
It is quite an old item, and there are no agricultural vehicles around. According to historical records, no matter how remote the place is, large and convenient automatic equipment should have appeared in 1500."
Mingli saw that Li Feng was a little unresponsive, so he explained in a low voice in his ear, for fear that he would say something wrong and arouse the atmosphere among the aborigines here.
After all, tonight... there is no such thing as night. After all, it is best to rest here after being tired.
Li Feng remembered the Tam Town incident that he had experienced before, and he had seen more or less electrical appliances. It seemed that the war had indeed caused heavy losses, and the development that had finally stabilized was wiped out in that one time. It seemed that the death rate was as high as 9
Above that, basically all people from all walks of life were killed. It took more than a thousand years to slowly recover.
Walking in the village, pedestrians occasionally pass by in a hurry. Through the bright light of the windows, you can see that almost everyone is inside the house. The pedestrians are also expressionless, and they are also afraid of the monsters outside.
"Hello, we are adventurers passing by. We heard that there is an anomaly here and we are going to help clean it up. We have been groping all the way here. Could you please introduce us to the village chief? We have something to say."
He grabbed a random passerby, a child who had been running just now. He was the one with the most fearless and happy face among the people outside, but when Akari stopped him like this, his face instantly turned into a mournful one.
"Whoa whoa whoa whoa"
Sure enough, he knew that he looked like he was about to cry. After a few seconds of pause, Akari thought he could get some information, but who knew that the little boy burst into tears.
"Let go of my children, who are you and what are you doing? Your clothes don't look like the people here."
Suddenly a woman came over and snatched the child from Akari's hands. Akari originally just grabbed the child's clothes and didn't expect anything else. To be taken away directly and beaten violently made Akari a little stunned.
live.
"Hello, auntie, we come from a distant country. We are all adventurers to experience ourselves. Along the way, we heard that there are a lot of anomalies happening here. Along the way, we discovered many unusual things, and finally arrived here. May I ask?
Do you need help? Our team will do our best to solve the incident. By the way, we found something on the way and want to talk to your village chief."
Mingli was still calm, neither angry nor verbose. He directly and calmly stated the reason why he came.
The old aunt in front of me glanced at several people with a wary gaze, and then slowly let go of the child in her arms.
"Are you really adventurers? It would be great if you could solve our problems. I will take you to see the village chief. Not long ago, several people came here and said they would help us solve our problems. They seem to have good strength, but there has been no movement.
Come on, follow me."
After the aunt finished speaking, she took her child and turned around to walk deeper into the village.
Li Feng and others looked at each other and immediately followed. The four people who arrived earlier were probably from the Jaeger team. They were finally going to meet, and Li Feng felt a little nervous.
Following several turns, we came to the door of the largest house. This house was several times larger than the ones we just saw. It was brightly lit and some sounds could be heard from time to time.
"This is the village chief's residence and office. He should be receiving those who arrived before. Come in with me."
After the aunt finished speaking, she pushed open the wooden door with some shabby wood. With a creaking sound, she led everyone towards the room.
The room was large enough for these people to enter, and there was quite a spacious space. After entering, I found that everyone in the room was looking at me and others, obviously interrupting the conversation between them.
"Village Chief, these self-proclaimed adventurers traveled far and wide to train themselves, and came here to help solve this disaster. These warriors, this is our village chief. I will evade it first, and you can discuss it on your own."
After introducing Li Feng and others, the aunt had already left on her own.
As she took her son out of the house, the scene became a little awkward. No one spoke, and they all looked at each other.
There were seven people in front of him who were dressed similarly to the one just now. The one sitting in the center was the village chief named by the aunt just now. The others should be more important tasks in the village, so we discussed countermeasures again.
The person sitting on the upper seat was dressed in quite modern clothes, with a dark armor covering his body, and even the weapons were black. The faces of the two men and two women were cold and unchanged. Three of them were carrying blunderbuss, which should be uniform.
Standard equipped weapons. The last person seemed to be the youngest among them, because although he tried to pretend to be calm, he could see the breathing frequency through his nose. First he inhaled and suddenly held it in, and then waited for a long time and suddenly exhaled. Yes
A sign of nervousness. What he was holding seemed to be... a stick!
It's indeed a stick. I couldn't see clearly the slender weapon attached to my waist. After a closer look, I realized that it was a shiny black stick. It is also a relatively special weapon on campus. Remember
There are only two stick classes in the fourth grade. Because they are not as lethal as sharp blades, few people choose this type of weapon.
"Hello, I am Paide, the village chief here. I would like to express my gratitude to you for helping us. However, the opponent is too powerful and must not be attacked by force. Coincidentally, these four people were also the ones who arrived here yesterday to help us, and they were still discussing countermeasures just now.
"You guys must be tired from coming all the way. Take a break and discuss it together."
After more than ten seconds of silence, the village chief spoke first and warmly greeted everyone to sit down. At this moment, anyone who can bring hope is his honored guest.
"Village Chief, this room will be a little crowded. Why don't we move to the conference hall, which is spacious enough to call in more people. With so many helpers, our opportunity has come. Why not formulate a battle plan this time?
Destroy the enemy in one fell swoop.”
Someone stood up suddenly and said this next to the village chief.
The village chief thought for a moment and nodded.
"Okay, then everyone moves to the conference room. Ali, you take the warriors there, we need to notify other villagers. This time there will be a collective meeting, and each household will send at least one representative to attend. Several warriors, this is
My son Qili, you follow him to the conference room first, we will be there later. Please wait patiently for a while, thank you."
"yes"
After Village Chief Paide finished his instructions, Chili agreed neatly and gently opened the door.
"A few please"
Since they were so kind, Li Feng and others couldn't refuse. The four members of the hunting team stood up first and walked out of the door. Li Feng and others looked at each other and hurried out of the room not to be outdone.
After walking out, Qili walked at the front and led a few people to walk a few steps and arrived at the largest house in the village. The door also rarely used an iron door, and the wall looked like it was the only one in the village that only used iron doors.
The houses built here are obviously very important.
Qili opened the door and led everyone into the house. He held a lighting stone in his hand and walked around with it. He quickly removed all the lighting equipment in the house, that is, the energy crystal candles.
ignite.
"You guys sit down and rest for a while. I'm going to help my father. You get to know each other first, and then the fate of the whole village depends on you to save it. Thank you!"
