Chapter 175:
After the vast basin of the Grand Canyon, there is no longer a swamp on the wasteland that can hinder people's progress.
On the silent land, two heads poked out from behind the steep slope, and finally saw a different terrain ahead.
The man among them took out his staff, summoned a bat, and let it fly forward to explore the way.
The woman patted the man on the shoulder and said in an excited tone:
"Finally out!"
"Lindsay, it took us a month to cross this basin?"
"That's right." Lindsay became increasingly proficient in Common Language. Hong said, "To be precise, it's 32 days."
Hong climbed onto a raised rock.
She suddenly jumped up from below, then half-knelt on the ground, giving Lindsay a hand.
"..."
Lindsay blinked, then held the girl's hand and was pulled up by the other party.
He certainly doesn't need this help.
But Hong's character always likes to take the initiative to do something. After getting along with each other for a month, Lindsay has become accustomed to the other person's actions.
The two climbed up to the high ground together, stood side by side, and looked into the distance.
A canyon with a huge drop comes into view from the extreme position in the north, seemingly endless, spreading to the junction of heaven and earth in the southwest.
The paintbrush that nature has left here is unpredictable.
Valleys, mountain streams, and fissures crisscross this land, and rapid rivers rush through the rocky canyons.
It is difficult to conclude a reliable path by relying only on visual inspection.
The terrain you see when you look out at this moment may be a winding path leading ahead, or it may lead people to a dead end of a cliff.
The above-mentioned scene is completely consistent with the scenery recorded in the expedition team's notes.
Lindsay immediately took out the notes she carried with her.
As soon as he turned to the corresponding page, Hong on the side came over and tried to read in his own common language:
"This land is dotted with... canyons, and the frequent height differences make the land look like a... "Wrinkles?"
Lindsay pointed out the two words that Hong failed to pronounce:
"The first word is dense interlacing, and the latter word is wrinkled dog."
Hong asked again:
"What is wrinkled dog?"
Lindsay explained :
"A dog is an animal domesticated by humans. It can be used for housekeeping or hunting. Some of them are pets for viewing. Wrinkled skin refers to the many wrinkles on the skin of this dog."
While explaining the words Meaning, Lindsay and Hong also started to move on.
The terrain here is definitely a serious obstacle for the two people who want to reach the east.
When a cliff lies in front of you.
They could only take a detour and look for a route around them, which was also mixed with constant climbing and falling.
Lindsay wants to use resource-based items to build bridges.
But after all, this kind of soil cannot completely ignore the physical laws of reality like in the game. When laying earth blocks sideways on the edge of the cliff, three meters is the limit. The last option is to take a detour.
In the canyon, the sun rises and sets.
Walking in this complex terrain, even for two awakened people, the speed will inevitably drop significantly.
When night came, the two came to a wider canyon.
We simply picked a flat piece of open space and used it as a temporary resting camp tonight.
It was naturally Lindsay's responsibility to set up the camp.
His ability to resource is the perfect choice for the job, and Red uses the bat's scouting advantage to go hunting.
After a few minutes, a simple shelter was built.
Bonfires also rose from the rubble in the clearing.
Lindsay took out the reserved animal meat to prepare dinner, but before it was finished, the girl's footsteps sounded above her head.
"Back?"
Lindsay looked up and saw Hong jumping off a cliff of more than 20 meters.
The girl's movements were agile and precise. She stepped on the earth and rock bumps on the cliff three times on the falling route, and the force of the fall was completely eliminated when she landed. "Back."
Hong smiled and greeted Lindsay.
Then he lifted the fiery red spear on his shoulder forward, and the prey hanging on it was thrown in front of the camp.
"I'm lucky today. There's this big cat up there."
[Corpse: yellow-spotted ocelot]
[The corpse of a three-stage monster that suddenly died, fresh and warm. 】
【Fur and meat can be sold, with average value. 】
The third stage of Warcraft...
Lindsay looked at the girl in front of him. This companion of his had regained his identity as an awakened person after coming into contact with the source of matter.
And she didn't follow any of the paths Lindsay offered.
The remaining instincts in the body are deeply rooted in the bone marrow. Even if the memory is lost, the reintegrated essence will automatically return to its original path.
Hong was pleased with this.
Using this talent-like skill, she shows great potential offensively.
In one month, her strength improved by leaps and bounds.
I can last about three minutes while sparring with Lindsay, who is almost completely different from the weak girl she was a month ago!
It's a pity that the identity of the lost person disrupted the specific structure of her power.
Lindsay used the commodity ability and could only get information like [the lost person who is recovering his abilities].
Ding!
At this time, the cooking pointer reached perfection, and Lindsay quickly threw the roast to Red.
The girl took the food and finished it boldly.
After a month of continuous barbecue, you will inevitably get tired of eating no matter how delicious the food is. She did not use any euphemistic pretense and expressed her troubles directly:
"It's barbecue again...Lindsay, how long have we been eating barbecue?"
"Can we change it tomorrow ?" A kind of food?"
Lindsay's expression was also very innocent:
"I also want to change the food, but our environment is like this...Tomorrow, understand. I will try to find some wild vegetables, but I have agreed in advance that you Don't complain about the bad taste."
Hong opened his eyes wide, and his bright pupils were full of disbelief:
"Can you still make something bad to eat?"
Lindsay gave an example on the spot:
"Don't you think that last week's biscuits were delicious? Is it delicious?"
"..."
The girl was silent for a few seconds, obviously thinking of the 'deliciousness' of meat biscuits, and then decisively changed the topic:
"Where's that sweet syrup? Give me some."
Lindsay immediately refused. :
"Eat maple syrup sparingly and use it sparingly."
Hong rushed over, trying to find something behind Lindsay's butt, but to no avail, so he began to persuade:
"Lindsay, aren't you tired of eating barbecue? "
Come on, take it out, let's enjoy it first, and then think of other ways after eating?"
"..."
Lindsay knew that this guy wouldn't give up until he achieved his goal, so he simply made a condition:
"Tonight's training will be fine." We haven't started yet."
"If you can beat me to a tie, I'll give it to you."
Hong immediately took the bait:
"It's a deal!"
The girl stood up and raised the red spear; Lindsay also took out one To the crimson dagger.
The two of them stood ready.
In the moment before the fight, Lindsay thought of the description of today's prey - [the corpse of a three-stage monster that suddenly died], so he asked one more question:
"Hong, have you become stronger again?"
Hong smiled confidently and raised his head directly. Spear rushed over:
"You will know if you try it yourself!"
[I stayed up all night yesterday, and my schedule was terrible 0.o]
