Sang Luo unexpectedly fell into the future ten thousand years later. Pure humans had long been extinct, and genetically evolved beastmen dominated the world. They were brave and skilled in battle, ...
Chapter 75 First Arrival in the Northern Continent
The harsh environment of the Northern Ice Field is beyond imagination.
The gloomy black clouds were hanging very low. Although it was daytime, the light was extremely dim. The air seemed to be shrouded in a layer of gray-blue mist. The blizzard howling in the sky was like the howling of ghosts, mixed with hailstones as big as fists, raging wildly on the poor land beneath our feet.
The most terrifying thing is the temperature of dozens of degrees below zero! Not a blade of grass grows, as if everything is frozen!
"Huh..." Sang Luo took a difficult step, stepping back and forth in the snow.
Before coming here, she had specifically inquired about the situation in the Northern Continent. She wore several layers of compressed thick fleece, a cloak, and a hat, wrapping herself tightly from head to toe. However, she still underestimated the harsh environment of the Northern Continent.
In just over ten minutes, she was covered in snow.
From a distance, it almost looks like a snowman.
Sang Luo quickly shook his head and used his fire spiritual power to clean the snow and water off his body. He looked up at the sky with rolling dark clouds and sighed deeply.
The northern continent is in a cold season all year round. Most of the orcs who can live in such a cold place for a long time are beasts unique to the ice field. Their fur is long and dense, which can withstand the severe cold.
If she was unlucky enough to fall into the northern continent during her travels, she would probably freeze to death within a few minutes.
She used fire spiritual power to nourish her body at all times to resist the biting cold, and was able to barely adapt.
The vast expanse of ice stretches as far as the eye can see, and tall silver birch trees stand majestically, reaching into the sky.
Sang Luo stopped in the woods, felt the material of the wood, and found the right place.
I found a tree stump to sit on and took some dried meat from the space to eat.
Several tall and short black spots appeared in the field of vision. When I got closer, I found that they were a group of dusty orcs.
The clothes they wore were much rougher than those of the orcs in the Western Continent. Most of them were simple coarse linen clothes, and some wore furry animal skins, which were extremely primitive and rough.
These orcs were not in good condition, as if they had just experienced a fierce battle. They looked unhappy, with some marks on their bodies, and looked extremely miserable.
The group of orcs in front also saw her.
The tall and burly tiger beast waved its hand.
"That kid over there, come here!"
Sang Luo looked around before he was sure that the other party was calling him.
This group of people looked like they had just finished a fight, but they didn't look like vicious people. She put the dried meat into the space and walked over. "I wonder what the big brothers want?"
"I have a favor to ask of you. Come with us. We will reward you handsomely when you succeed."
Before Sang Luo could speak, the tall and thin beastman next to the tiger beast said first, "Boss, this kid looks a little frail. Are you sure you want him to join our team?"
They had just experienced a fierce battle and several brothers died. They were still short of at least one more person to form a bounty team to take on the mission.
The Northern Continent is vast and sparsely populated. On their way here, they had only encountered this one lone orc, and they couldn't find anyone else to replace him for the time being, so they could only make do with him for now.
But if it's too useless, it will really hold you back.
The tiger beast asked Sang Luo again, "What level of beastman are you?"
The other orcs also subconsciously looked at her arm, but unfortunately, it was blocked by her robe and wrist guard, so they could not see anything. Sang Luo answered readily, "Level 6."
Everyone's faces lit up with joy. The tall and thin monkey beastman also laughed and said, "I can't believe that you, who are so thin and small and plain looking, are actually a sixth-level beastman! Boss, we are really lucky!"
Tiger Beast also nodded in satisfaction, "What's your talent?"
Sang Luo originally wanted to say fire, but Ghostly True Fire was a little different from other fire talents and would be easily exposed. She changed the subject and said, "Ice talent."
Everyone was even more satisfied. In this world of ice and snow, ice talents could bring out their greatest advantages.
The tiger beast patted her shoulder and handed her a bag of crystals. "Little brother, come with us. We'll pay you after we're done. This is the deposit. Don't run away halfway."
"Okay, big brother." Sang Luo accepted the crystal and followed the team.
She had just arrived in the Northern Continent and knew nothing about anything, but she could learn about the situation through them.
So Sang Luo was just pulled into the team to do the mission just to fill in the numbers.
This group of people wanted to hunt a high-level ice-type star beast.
Sang Luo followed them for a long time and didn't know where they were going.
Suddenly, someone stopped in front.
"Be careful and alert."
Sang Luo was still looking around to see if there was any prey around when her feet suddenly began to tremble violently. A giant ice worm that was more than ten meters long broke out of the snow, right where she was standing!
As her realm improved, Sang Luo's physical fitness and reaction ability became extremely strong. Almost at the moment when the giant ice worm broke out of the ground, she jumped to a safe area dozens of meters away. Looking at the giant ice worm with only a few hundred legs, covered with scales, and with bared fangs and claws from afar, she felt nauseous in her heart, as if she was almost swallowed by it.
"Get ready! Fight!"
Following the tiger beast's command, the beastmen instantly transformed into beast forms and rushed out like arrows.
This giant ice insect was covered with hard scales, and the teeth and claws of ordinary orcs could not cause much damage to it. Several orcs bit it frantically, but could only barely bite off a few scales.
The giant insect opened its huge mouth filled with hundreds of sharp teeth and bit towards one of the orcs' heads.
The orcs in the team had obviously done their homework in advance. Someone immediately used a chain made of some unknown iron to tie up the giant insect's head and tied it to a giant tree that was as thick as a man's embrace, so that its head could not be twisted flexibly to attack and bite.
The giant insect was not to be outdone. It twisted its body and slammed into the trees frantically, throwing several orcs to the ground.
If the orc couldn't get rid of it, the giant insect would use its huge body to wrap around him.
The huge entanglement force can almost crush their bodies!
As the giant insect struggled more and more violently, the chain was about to break, the ancient tree was shaking, and snow fell down madly.
The strongest and largest tiger beast bit hard on the lighter part between the giant insect's head and waist. It was obviously the giant insect's weakness.
Unfortunately, his teeth did not completely penetrate the giant insect's scales, but instead aroused the giant insect's anger. It twisted its body in an even larger arc, and its scales spread violently. Its tail slapped downward, and each scale was like an extremely sharp blade. Dozens of wounds were torn on the tiger beast's body in an instant, and blood gushed out.
"Boom!" A loud noise.
The giant ice worm completely broke free from its chains, and the huge ancient tree dozens of meters high was uprooted in an instant, collapsing to the ground with a loud bang, splashing thousands of flying snow.
Then the giant insect opened its bloody mouth and rushed towards the group of orcs to bite them.
An ice spike condensed with endless cold air suddenly emerged from the air and pierced into the chest and abdomen of the giant insect with a "whoosh".
The hard protective scales were instantly penetrated by the ordinary ice spikes, and even the air made an explosion sound.
The giant insect collapsed to the ground with a loud bang, and its light red blood stained a large area of snow.
Someone quickly reacted and crawled over to check the insect beast's corpse, "Dead, dead!"
Like everyone else, the tiger beast turned its head to look in the direction, but was surprised to find that it was the weak male beast that killed him.
So strong!
This is a seventh-level star beast!
He was killed with one blow!
There is no way he could be at the mere sixth level, he must be at least at the same level, seventh level!
Everyone was not stupid. After being shocked, they all looked more respectful.
The orcs who came to live in the Northern Continent were either native tribes or evildoers who had committed crimes in other continents and could no longer stay there, so they had no choice but to come to this broken place to survive.
This person must be very powerful, but he probably didn't want to reveal his identity, so he said this on purpose.
The orcs in the team also understood the rules of the road. No one asked any questions and continued on their journey as if nothing had happened.
But along the way, their attitude towards Sang Luo became much better, with a hint of flattery in their eyes.
Sang Luo followed them for several days and killed seven or eight of these giant ice insects.
Seeing that they had killed the giant insect and put it away directly in their space, Sang Luo said, "The meat of high-level star beasts is delicious and rich in spiritual energy. After processing the meat, you can sell it to some food stores. The scales of these star beasts are also very sharp and hard, comparable to black iron. They can be sold to weapon shops and material shops... If you take some time to process them and sell them in batches, you can get more rewards."
A bear beast gruffly replied, "Don't bother! We don't hunt these giant insects to sell for their materials, but to hand them over to the city and collect the bounty."
"Well, the bounty is based on the entire giant insect being submitted. A single giant insect can fetch tens of thousands of beast crystals!"
"So which city are you going to next?"
"Ice Breaking City."
Sang Luo nodded and said, "I'll go with you."
Just looking for a place to rest.
There are too few orcs in the northern continent. She didn't see any other orcs except this bounty team on her way here. There should be many more orcs in the city, which would make it easier to gather information.
According to the orcs in the hunting team, Icebreaker City is a well-developed main city in the Northern Continent, but its size and area are about the same as a medium-sized city in the Western Continent.
There are only tens of thousands of orcs living in the city, and the roads are very wide and deserted.
Not long after entering the city, they ran into another team.
They said they bumped into each other accidentally, but in fact, the other party came to them on purpose. Sang Luo saw that the leader of the team was an ice lizard orc. After seeing their team, his strange vertical pupils turned, and then he led his men to greet them, "Hu Che, it's been a long time since we last met. The last time you seriously injured me, I still remember it vividly!"
"What do you want to do?" Hu Che asked in a deep voice.
The team had just experienced several fierce battles and their condition was not very good. When they came to the city, they wanted to find a place to rest and adjust.
Everyone looked extremely alert.
"Hey, don't look at me like that. I don't want to do anything. It's good for everyone to be harmonious. As long as you hand over all the prey you got this time to me, I can let go of the past and let you go!"
"You're asking for trouble!" someone yelled. "We worked so hard to hunt the prey, why should we give it to you?"
"Haha, since you don't know what's good for you, then let's talk based on strength. Whoever grabs the prey first gets it!"
A giant ice worm costs ten thousand beast crystals. Who can resist this temptation?
Sang Luo could also see that the two captains had a grudge against each other, and after this provocation, the two teams immediately started fighting. They fought in the city, knocking over many public buildings and attracting many orcs to watch, but no one came to stop the fight.
The orcs on their side were exhausted and soon fell into a disadvantage. Fortunately, the patrol team from the city arrived in time and stopped the two sides from fighting.
"Orcs are forbidden from starting wars in Icebreaker City. Damaging public buildings and disrupting the city's stability is prohibited. Come! Take these two teams away, imprison them, and have them reflect on their actions for two weeks!"
Sang Luo, who had been innocently affected, didn't move a finger during the entire process. "..."
She’s only been here a few days and she’s going to jail???
Suddenly, the commotion in front disappeared, and a tall and straight man walked out of the crowd.
The orcs on the patrol team saw the man and immediately said respectfully, "Lord City Lord! There were two bounty hunting teams causing trouble and fighting, but we have stopped both sides and no casualties were caused. According to regulations, after deducting the fine, they will be detained for half a month."
"Um."
The voice was low, charming and full of masculine charm.
Sang Luo's ears felt numb, and he subconsciously looked in the direction of the crowd. For a moment, his breathing stopped.
The man was wearing a black hooded cloak. He was tall and slender, and as silent as the night. Just by standing there, he could easily grab everyone's attention, and he exuded a cold aura that kept strangers away.
From Sang Luo's angle, half of his face was covered by black cloth, revealing his cold, hard and smooth jawline, which was very intriguing.
Suddenly, he looked over here.
Just then, a cold wind blew by, revealing the man's cold and handsome eyebrows. His downward gaze was cold and fierce, with a fierce murderous aura forged through countless lives and deaths, giving people a strong sense of aggression and deterrence!
Sang Luo's eyes suddenly became moist. She hadn't seen him for a long time.
Lan Cang has become much more mature and stable than he was a year ago, and his figure has become taller and straighter. Even when wearing such heavy clothes, one can still see his strong and terrifying muscle lines, revealing a thrilling masculine sexual tension!
…
Lan Cang was about to leave, but seemed to sense something, so he stopped and glanced at the crowd.
But he did not see the familiar figure he had been thinking about day and night.
He lowered his head and sneered. What was he thinking? How could she possibly come here?
Just as he was about to leave, a voice came over.
"Lancang!"
His body froze, and before he could react, he was hugged tightly.
Sang Luo couldn't control her emotions for a moment and rushed up to him. She wanted to reminisce about the past and get close to him, but she was pushed away mercilessly the next second.
She looked up in surprise and met the man's dangerous cold eyes.
Lan Cang's thin lips coldly scolded, "Come here, arrest him for me."
"Who is this person? How dare he offend the city lord!"
"The motive is suspicious! He must be an illegal element sent from another city! Capture him immediately and don't let him escape!"
Sang Luo widened her eyes and quickly realized that she was still in disguise and must have been mistaken by Lan Cang as a rogue beast from nowhere.
"Wait, actually I am..."
