Episode 277: The Great Migration
[Sorry, it's not that I'm late for the update, it's because the starting point background is convulsive, and it's updated but it can't be brushed out!
As if to confirm Jiang Chen's words, the day after Khadgar came to visit Jiang Chen, several people in the village who went out hunting were inexplicably attacked, a total of seven people, all of whom died in a valley about ten miles away from the village, the valley was in a mess, but there was no trace of the enemy.
The corpses were transported back to the village, Jiang Chen and Khadgar were all invited to come to inspect them, Cain said in a deep voice: "They are all old hunters in the village, and two of them have already cultivated their fighting qi to the seventh level, but they are all dead, and the people who attacked them are very strong!"
"It's very strong!" Jiang Chen's eyes flashed with a terrifying light, looking at the seven corpses lying on the ground, "The force that caused them to die is not only extremely powerful, but also very violent, and in the fury, there is also a bit of evil, faintly, there seems to be the breath of death." β
"It's evil power!" Khadgar said in a deep voice, "I can feel the power of the legendary demon, it is full of malice towards our world!"
"What are your plans?" Jiang Chen asked, "You must already know the seriousness of the matter, and you don't have any extra time to continue to hesitate." β
"I'll send the news to Stormwind. Khadgar sighed, "You're right, I have had no choice since I discovered the teacher's secret, and I have to make the right choice between the teacher and Azeroth, even if it hurts my heart." β
"Good. Jiang Chen nodded, and then turned to Cain and the others: "You have also seen the situation, although I know that this is very helpless, but you must move as soon as possible, it is no longer safe here, it may be attacked on a large scale at any time, the enemy's strength is very strong, you can't stop it." β
"This" glanced at each other, Ino, Cain, Gail and the others couldn't help but confront each other for a while, although they all knew very well in their hearts that what Jiang Chen said was true, but it was too much reluctance for them to leave the village where they had lived for most of their lives.
"Don't hesitate, we don't have time to hesitate. Jiang Chen said in a deep voice: "The injuries on my body have not yet recovered, and with the strength of you and Khadgar alone, you can't stop the enemy's attack at all, and if you stay, there is only one way to die." β
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be silent for a while, and after half a sound, the village chief Ino ordered in a deep voice: "Everyone listen, go back and pack your things immediately, remember, only bring the necessities, and in an hour, gather at the entrance of the village, we must move to Storm Fortress before the big war comes!"
Hearing this, many people breathed a sigh of relief, although their hometown was difficult to give up, but in the face of the invasion of war, it was related to the life and death of themselves and the entire village, and they were not really willing to stay and wait for death, but they needed someone to help them give up.
As the head of Amy's Village, Ino is already very old, but at this most critical moment, he still made the most correct decision.
Facing the threat of death, everyone in the village did not dare to slack off, everyone was packing up the necessary supplies, food, clothing and money as quickly as possible, Jiang Chen summoned the red queen, and in just an hour, some vehicles were built, pulled by horses and snow deer, which could carry some old and weak and heavy objects.
Regarding the existence of the Red Queen, the people in the village knew about it, because they had seen Jiang Chen summon the Red Queen, but they never knew that this very beautiful girl actually had such skills, which really surprised them.
"Strange life, unlike any other being on the continent of Azeroth. Different people naturally pay attention to different angles, and after Khadgar first saw the red, he couldn't help but be surprised.
"The Red Queen is an assistant I recruited from another world. Jiang Chen said with a smile: "She is proficient in many skills, and making things is one of her strengths." β
"Sir, you are too complimentary. The Red Queen smiled and said, "Compared to me, who can only make some dead things, your spells are even more wonderful. β
"Okay, how capable I am, can I not know?" Jiang Chen sighed: "No matter how strong the manpower is, there is still a limit after all, if it is not so, this village does not need to be moved." β
No matter when, no matter what the place, no matter what the reason, leaving the hometown is always a sad thing, but, in the face of the threat of death, the people of Amy Village still had to embark on the road of migration, along the way, everyone's emotions were not daring, even the children who usually like to play around, they seemed very silent, and stayed in the car obediently with the old people.
Jiang Chen didn't choose to ride a horse like Khadgar because of his injuries, but sat in a carriage, and at the same time sat on this carriage with the red queen and Amy's family, looking at Amy who was silent, Jiang Chen couldn't help but reach out and touch his head.
This is not the first time he has sighed at the helplessness of reality, although he knows that he will repeat his sigh thousands of times, and he will not be able to change the reality, but he still can't help but sigh in his heart, yes, his strength is very strong, even if he has not fully recovered now, but so what, he alone, plus the Red Queen and Dong Xiaoyu, is even enough to match the orcs of a tribe, but if he sticks here, there will be countless orcs who will attack through the Dark Gate, and when the time comes, even if he can defend this village, what about the other villages in AzerothοΌ
The greater the power, the greater the responsibility! Although Jiang Chen asked himself if he was not a hero, as a person with enough ability, he really couldn't sit back and watch the huge Azeroth continent and completely fall into the endless flames of war, making death and destruction the theme of the world.
The road of migration is very long, but what is even longer is the change in the hearts of the migrants, they must understand and learn to give up, but for many people, hometown is often the most difficult to let go.
The first day out of the frozen plateau, is a rare good weather, compared to the frozen plateau, the outside world gives people the biggest feeling is that there are no thick clouds in the sky, the world seems to have become vast, no longer as depressed as on the plateau, the sun is also generous to the light, full of fallen leaves in the dense forest, when the team marched forward, the horses and snow deer stepped on it to make a soft sound of "rustling", in Jiang Chen's ears, like a rhythmic music, in this dry weather, no one's mood is too bad.
During this period of time, he has recovered to nine points, and began to gradually grasp the power that belongs to the Yuan Shen Scattered Immortals, compared to the past, there have been indescribable wonderful changes, although, his physical body has a lifetime of ten thousand years, but being able to cultivate into an immortal Yuan Shen is always good news, with his current ability, if he goes to the world of Liaozhai Zhiwei, even if he singles out the thousand-year-old demon, it is enough not to think about the previous things, Jiang Chen worked hard to stabilize his thoughts, and focused on the woods in front of him.
The woods were very quiet, except for the sound of the moving team stepping on the leaves, Jiang Chen's keen five senses could not catch any sound of activity, which made him feel very surprised, after all, in this huge wood, there were no other animals except them, which was a little too strange.
"Cain!" Jiang Chen said indifferently: "Inform everyone, stop moving forward immediately, there is something strange in this wood." β
"It's Mr. Jiang Chen!" Cain, who was walking at the front of the team, was stunned when he heard this, and then hurriedly raised his arm high and said loudly: "Everyone stop advancing, and the soldiers should pay attention to forming a defensive formation to protect the old man and children!"
Although it was not possible to enforce the order and ban like the army, with Cain's order, the advancing team quickly stopped and made corresponding defensive adjustments.
Jiang Chen let go of his divine sense and quickly spread through the woods, the rustle of all the leaves in the woods was as clear as someone shouting in his ear, but after careful searching, he found nothing.
"Could it be that I guessed wrong?" Jiang Chen was wondering in his heart, but he never thought that at this time, his divine sense shrouded him, and on the ground, there was a sudden soft sound of "poof", only to see an arm with only bones suddenly stretched out from the dirt covered with dead leaves, and after grabbing around and not catching anything, the hand with only bones held the ground and slowly stretched out the body below.
"This is" Jiang Chen was surprised, but saw that on the ground around him, there was a loud sound of "poof", and one skeleton after another crawled out of the dirt (to be continued). )
