451 Gathering place of mankind
It can be seen that the cunning winter wolves are consuming the physical strength of the half-giants and plotting to turn the tables in one fell swoop.
Unless Donnie is unlucky enough to stand in the direction of these strange journeys again, the battle between these predators means nothing to Donnie and them.
Seeing the winter wolf and the half-giants gradually disappear, Donnie relaxed and looked at the situation around him.
The cave was very rudimentary, and there wasn't much stuff, except for food, and the only thing of note was the simple line map hidden behind a curtain of thatched grass with strange patterns.
Downey was almost certain that what appeared in front of him was indeed a map, and that it could be found by picking up the straw curtain hanging on the wall.
It includes chiseled dots, charcoal to add color, semicircles to represent peaks, and black lines to represent straights.
Downey was almost certain that the dot was the human village.
There is only one problem, there are five dots representing villages and towns, each in different directions on the map of this area, and four of the five have been crossed.
The cross on the red paint painting clearly represents something, most likely that these villages and towns have been destroyed and no longer exist.
Two of the red dots that had been crossed off had lost most of their color, apparently a long time since they were drawn. The paint on the other dot has dried up.
The last dot is not, the color is more vibrant, and when you tap it with your finger, there is even red paint left on the tip of your finger.
This obviously shows that the last dot has not been ticked for a long time, and although it is difficult for Downey to deduce the true time of the dot with such a small clue, I am afraid that there is some danger here that caused the village and town to be destroyed.
Of course, it is also possible that the village and town have chosen to relocate, which is all possible, and all Downey has to do is be more careful.
With only one of the five dots left intact, Donnie didn't really have much choice unless he didn't want to believe the markings on the map and went elsewhere to try his luck.
But then the authenticity of the map is equally unbelievable.
Downey had lost faith in the double-sided ring, and even though it showed a smiling face, Downey didn't believe that much, so he didn't look at it at all this time.
Downey plans to wait until the night has passed, so that at least he won't run into the two races of winter wolves and half-giants.
The darkness of the night without light was not difficult for Donnie, and although he always remembered Lawrence who had lost news, he also understood that it was useless to be cranky.
This time, Donnie didn't take out the temple wall lamp, he is now in a dangerous environment, and he can't keep himself safe if he loses control, so he can only stay up slowly.
This time seemed to have passed very long, and the dark clouds in the sky seemed to show no signs of moving, as if frozen in the sky, and the snowflakes kept falling downward.
This seems to be a snowy field that will never melt, and Donnie secretly calculated in his heart that there should be no place in the Free Federation except for some secret realms of strange races and territories on other continents.
Moreover, although winter wolves and half-giants are not uncommon and weird, it is still relatively rare for such a large scale to gather together to form a colony, and even this situation has never happened at all.
Doesn't this mean that he has left the Free Federation? Not even on the Origin Star?
Thinking of this, Donnie suddenly felt a wave of boredom.
After some time, Donnie finally waited for the belated sunrise.
By this time, Downey had silently calculated that the night had lasted at least fourteen hours, and that the long night had lasted definitely longer than the day.
The days are short and the nights are long, but even after sunrise there is no sunlight, and the clouds overhead really look the same as yesterday.
When Donnie walked out of the cave, he found that the snow outside was basically the same as yesterday, and he didn't know where the snow had fallen since yesterday.
This situation is obviously not normal, but Donnie has no mind to bother with it right now.
It didn't take long for Donnie and the paper goblins to be under the hills.
I saw that all the bushes and trees on the snowfield had fallen to the ground, and the fire that had been lit last night had long since been extinguished, and it had been broken into countless pieces by the messy footprints.
Donnie walked through the staggering trees, and although he could be sure that he was walking on the road on the map, there was no trace of the road under his feet.
As time passed, the trees around Downey became more sparse and the hills became more and more approaching, and eventually, Downey saw an iron-gray barrier in the middle of the mountains.
The rocks had accumulated to form a section of the city wall, the flags were constantly swaying in the wind, and several people in heavy clothes were standing on the city wall in full armor.
When they saw Donnie, Downey saw them.
Almost instantly, the men raised their arms and aimed their strong bows at Donnie.
"Stop!" A strong man of about two meters, only one head shorter than yesterday's half-giant, leaned against the stone wall and shouted down.
These people all looked relatively strong, and when Donnie was pointed at them with a strong bow and spear, he also had a pinprick feeling, as well as a sense of danger.
In order not to arouse the hostility of these people, or even be directly attacked by them, Donnie stopped directly, and the words spoken by this strong man were basically equivalent to the lingua franca of the Federation, which happened to be able to communicate.
"Who are you? How did you find here? The bearded man continued.
Donnie didn't hesitate and said directly: "I'm just a traveler, lost in the wind and snow. ”
However, before Donnie could say the next sentence, a strong killing intent appeared in the bearded man's eyes.
"! Which traveler will come to the snow?! ”
"Who sent you? Could it be the slaves of those half-giants? ”
As he spoke, the bearded man threw the spear in his hand directly at Donnie.
The sharp spear sank into the ground and almost landed on Donnie.
What is Snow Land? Donnie wondered for a while, there are countless space copies in the secret realm, and this snow realm may be one of them, but in this case, I am afraid that he is really not in the Free Federation now.
Since the traveler could not deceive these people at all, Donnie simply stopped telling those lies, but said directly: "I don't know what happened, I just appeared in a snowfield." ”
Donnie had thought that he would be attacked by these people if he said this, and he was even ready to flee.
