Chapter 955: Volut Plague

Before leaving, Ajie went to the prison to see his elder brother.

The prison of the Mystic Kingdom was located next to the garrison of the Kingdom of Resurrection, in a basin behind the police station. There were high walls on all sides, fully armed skeleton guards patrolling, flying dragons hovering in the sky, and a mobile fortress like a small mountain was stationed outside.

It is extremely difficult to escape from here.

The Resurrection Kingdom has a relatively loose jurisdiction over the Mystic Kingdom, and does not interfere with the local freedom of belief and customs of various regions. However, if a vicious social incident occurs, or if someone repeatedly injures or kills someone, they will be arrested and imprisoned in this [Mountain Prison] for reform.

Ajie's elder brother Ayong was imprisoned because he forged the identity of a biologist in Treetop City.

A Yong wanted to sell the spices he had bought from the outside world through Tree Crown City. Although he was careful, he was eventually caught and sent back to the prison of the Mystic Kingdom to serve his sentence.

Falsifying one's identity and pretending to be a scholar is a serious crime in the Yao tribe. The court believed that it would have a bad impact on social order, and Ayong was sentenced to 10 years in prison.

Led by the skeleton guard, Ajie walked into the meeting room.

A crystal wall separates the inside and outside. Prisoners and visitors can see each other and communicate by touching the wall, but everything must be under the supervision of guards.

Inside the wall, Ayong walked in led by another guard.

The skeleton guard next to him placed an hourglass on a shelf on the wall: "Cherish your time."

"Yes, yes."

Ajie nodded hurriedly.

He sat by the wall, touched the smooth and cold glass wall with his hand, and looked at the person inside: "Brother, are you okay recently?"

Ayong was wearing a gray prison uniform and had shackles on his hands, but he looked in good spirits.

"Same old, except that the work is a bit tiring, everything else is fine."

Ayong crossed his legs and said, "I was just rated excellent this year, so I can apply for transfer to another prison next year."

Ajie was stunned: "Brother, what does this mean?"

The eldest brother smiled and said, "The prison system is very complicated. It is a system and society of its own. I won't go into details here. Anyway, you just need to know that if you perform well, you can go to a more comfortable and relaxed prison."

"For example, the Abyss Prison can be said to be the holy land of the Yao Clan Prison. The brothers who transferred from there said that every meal in the Abyss Prison has fresh stewed bighorn sheep or roasted native chicken, and you can make your own side dishes. The prison also has a laboratory and an internal chamber of commerce. It also has the right to hold sports games for all prisons, and can also obtain funding to produce programs for Star TV... That is the highest point of prison society."

Ajie was amazed when he heard this.

He followed his elder brother to Yancheng and Yaocheng twice to discuss business and pay visits. There are too many Yao worlds, and each world has different social norms.

I didn't expect that there could be so much fun in prison.

"The biggest benefit is not these, but the connections."

A Yong said with a relaxed look: "There are many long-term prisoners in the Abyss Prison, many of whom are big brothers in various industries. Although they are in prison, you can learn a lot just by getting to know them, and you will have more options after you get out."

"If you believe in God, you must go to the Yaocheng Temple to kowtow to Lord Yao. If you become a prisoner, your destination must be the Abyss Prison."

Ajie felt admiration in his heart.

A big brother is a big brother. Even if he is in an unfavorable situation, he will still keep thinking of ways to solve the problem. Even if he is in prison, he wants to achieve success and seek a higher position among the prisoners.

When it comes to intelligence, I have never been as smart as my elder brother.

"Tell me about yourself." A Yong changed the subject: "You came to see me. It seems that you are still planning to go out. Are you going to Volute to do business again?"

Ajie nodded.

"Just think it over. There's a plague in that place, so make sure you have enough medicine in your medicine box. Remember not to take off your protective clothing, and make sure you have the necessary self-defense weapons. Also... don't get angry. You're here to do business, to make money, not to get angry."

Ayong warned, "You are my only relative in this world, I don't want to see you not come back."

"Brother, I understand."

…

Ajie packed his bags and went to the Chamber of Commerce to report, but the president found him.

"Let me introduce you to someone, Ajie."

The president said with a smile: "This is Li Mo, the child of an old friend of mine. He wants to go and see it. You can take him with you."

Ajie was very unhappy.

This is a business trip, not a sightseeing trip.

"President, Volut is very dangerous."

"Don't you have it?"

The president smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Young man, you should not be afraid of taking responsibility. The Chamber of Commerce will provide you with two senior guards and two armed steam carriages. All expenses for this trip will be reimbursed by the Chamber of Commerce."

Ajie immediately patted his chest and said, "Please rest assured, I will definitely live up to your trust."

Only then did he turn his attention to the side.

Li Mo looked to be in his early twenties, wearing a monk's robe that was popular among young people. His hair was dyed red, he wore a silver earring on his left ear, and glass Buddhist beads on his wrist. He looked rich but bored.

Classic young master look.

The president pulled Ajie aside and whispered, "Li Mo's family is very powerful in the Yao clan. You have to take good care of them. It will be very helpful to you in the future. You have the courage and the courage to fight. Just follow him. Do you understand what I mean?"

Ajie nodded: "I understand."

"That's good." The president smiled and said, "Be careful."

He turned to Li Mo and said, "Ajie is brave and resourceful, and has a good relationship with the Fire Ant Tribe in Volut. The [Bird Claw Fruit] we sell here is basically traded from him there."

Li Mo just yawned: "Let's go, don't waste time. Take me to see the fruit and the ant breeders."

…

To get from the Kingdom of Mystic Arts to Volut, one needs to pass through the wonder [Cedilia, the Beast with a Human Face].

Although this sect behaves strangely and always sings weird songs late at night, it can also open a passage to other worlds through the wonders of human-faced beasts.

The followers of Cydiliya will also enter to look for traces left by the ancient gods.

Ajie also obtained the [Bird Claw Fruit] from here because of his cooperation with the believers of Cedilia. This fruit can eliminate negative states, but the quantity is very small.

Then he gradually began to try to cross the boundaries himself.

Across the passage is Volut, where another wonder of Cydiliya is located.

It was a dark and windy night. Under the tall human-faced beast statue, the believers of Cydiliya circled around the fire. The flames cast their shadows on the stone wonder, forming a slowly flowing black flame.

The believers lit the dried water mold in their hands, making strange noises like crying and roaring.

Ajie has heard it many times, but he doesn't care.

But Li Mo remained calm despite the psychedelic musty smell and strange singing of the Saprolegnia.

He has indeed seen the world.

"Wait a moment."

Ajie went over and knelt down before Sediliya, offering the sacrifice he had prepared - a lamb, and then explained his group to the descendants of God he knew.

The descendant of God had goblin blood. He just glanced at the people behind him and nodded. He blessed everyone one by one and let them in.

Then Applejack got back into the steam carriage and drove carefully into the shadows behind the spectacle.

After passing through the dark tunnel and the mist of water mold, the road ahead suddenly opens up.

The steam carriage entered a vast plain.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Li Mo, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked out the window and was a little surprised: "Is this Volut?"

"Well, this is Volute."

Ajie said while driving.

The car was running on a vast green grassland, eagles were soaring in the sky, the sky was blue and the clouds were white, and the sun illuminated the ground very clearly.

It doesn't look like a world on the verge of destruction.

Of course.

The world will not be destroyed, only the local humans will be destroyed.

The people of the Mystic Kingdom knew about Volut mostly from rumors, and they didn't know the specific situation here. People spread rumors and easily said that the sky was falling and the earth was splitting, the sun and the moon were dim, and the natives were eating their own children.

That's not the case at all.

However, Ajie was happy to see it happen. The more frightened everyone was, the more stable his business route would be.

"Aren't the people here suffering from a severe famine?" Li Mo turned around and asked.

Ajie explained: "Mr. Mo, Volut is different from the Mystic Kingdom. The plants and animals here are poisonous and cannot be eaten directly. This place originally belonged to a god named [Wind Hum], but [Wind Hum] was seriously injured by the direct impact of the turbulent tide last time, and was besieged by several gods and died."

"[Wind Hum] launched a curse through self-detonation, filling all life in this world with toxins. The toxins became part of these lives, making it difficult for local species to leave here and survive."

"The locals were less affected, but they suffered from hunger. No matter what they did, they would get hungrier and hungrier, and no matter how much they ate, they would not be able to fill up, and they would lose weight until they starved to death."

"This is the Volut Plague."

"So those gods who wanted to seize this place eventually gave up on it. Destroying this place would cause the curse to be transferred to their own world, so they didn't want to cause this bad luck. Judging from the results, Feng Hum's strategy was successful."

Ajie pointed to his helmet and thick protective clothing: "It's very risky to come here, so we have to wear this special protective clothing to prevent the poison gas from entering our bodies. There are herbs and thick cloth to isolate the poison and prevent us from being infected by the plague of the locals. This disease can't be replaced by origami avatars."

"In addition, you need to bring the necessary medicine box, which must contain quick-acting heart-saving pills, anesthetic juice, delusion-breaking pills, prayer pills... and of course, brain-stimulating mints."

"The Bone Ancestors are safe in this regard."

He looked at another car behind him, which contained two skeleton guards. They were retired soldiers from the Mystic Kingdom, equipped with a series of professional equipment.

Li Mo asked: "Is the [Bird's Claw Fruit] not poisonous?"

“Yes.”

Ajie nodded. "But the ant breeders have done special treatment to remove the toxins. Otherwise, there is a risk of causing coma and long-term paralysis."

He drove out of the plains and arrived outside a dense forest.

Many wooden houses were built here.

Ajie took the mint and got out of the car, opened his arms and shouted to the other side: "Friends, I'm back."

The doors of the wooden house that were originally tightly closed slowly opened one by one.

One of them, a sturdy middle-aged man wearing a fox fur belt, came out and hugged him: "Jie, we have been waiting for you for a long time. We are in great need of food. How much food did you bring this time?"

"Much more than any other time before."

Ajie grinned and greeted his old friend through the glass mask: "Chief Guma, this time we have two large carts of potatoes - thanks to this Mr. Mo, it should be enough for your tribe to eat for a month."

"Great, great." Chief Lone Horse rubbed his hands and laughed: "Let's go pick some fruit!"

The patriarch then asked, "What do you think of what I told you last time?"

Ajie's smile faded: "I'm sorry, I can't adopt the children here, and I can't take the women here back... Otherwise I would be locked up in a cell."

The chieftain was anxious: "Didn't we agree last time that we would get you more fruit and you would take our women and children over there?"

"I also said last time that it will take time."

Ajie explained, "At least I have to wait until I discuss it with the Chamber of Commerce, and then go to the Yao Clan to apply for a UFO world, buy it, and then consider settling you. If I take you there now and someone reports you, I will have to go to jail, and you will all be deported. You also know that the plague in you... is a big problem."

The chief just opened his eyes wide and stiffened his neck: "I don't care, you said you can do this. You must take our women and children with you, even one or two will do, otherwise there will be no fruit."

Ajie clenched his fists when he heard this.

There is a reason why the Volut world is despised by all parties.

The local people's bad and stubborn temper is a major obstacle to their survival.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side.

"It's no big deal to settle some children." Li Mo said nonchalantly, "My family can find a UFO world to settle your people, but you have to show me your fruits and fruit trees first."

"You're not lying?" The patriarch looked doubtful.

Ajie said quickly: "Master Li Mo has a prominent family background. This is a piece of cake for him."

Anyway, with this young master attracting the fire, they were able to fool the enemy to some extent.

Ajie gave him a grateful look.

Li Mo turned around and said, "How many people are there? If they are women and children, then the main thing is a place to live, food, and water, right? How much land do we need? Tell me."

Ajie was stunned.

no.

Are you serious?
