After entering the southern territory, the climate became much warmer.

The northern region is sparsely populated, and there are few pedestrians along the way. However, after reaching the southern region, you can meet some caravans on the road. Although Su Ziyu has a map in his hand, in this era, he may not be able to recognize the road just by relying on the map. Fortunately, he can meet some caravans on the road and ask them how to get there.

But good luck would not always be on his side. On the morning of the sixth day when Su Ziyu was on his way to the royal capital, the horse he had obtained from the barbarians collapsed from exhaustion.

The horses in this world have great endurance and are tall, but they can't bear the heavy load that Su Ziyu is carrying. The weight of an anti-material sniper rifle alone is enough to make it difficult for him to bear. He is also inexperienced and has never ridden a horse before. He didn't prepare enough grass for the journey. For such a long journey, the horses need to be fed with abundant grass, eggs, beans and other things, and he basically fed them grass along the way.

Fortunately, this horse has great endurance, otherwise it would have fallen down long ago.

no way.

Su Ziyu had no choice but to let the horse go and continue on his journey carrying his things.

There are more towns in the south, and he still has a lot of money anyway, so he plans to buy a horse when the time comes.

It was not until he actually walked with his own legs that Su Ziyu felt how slow it was.

Fortunately, he met a large caravan that afternoon. After paying a silver coin, he was able to follow the caravan on the road. The pack animals used by the caravan were dragon beasts that looked like rhinos. They were huge, with thick skin and flesh, but they had a gentle personality. The leader was a white-bearded old man wearing a tricorn hat, a very shrewd old man.

The most eye-catching thing was the caravan's guards.

All of these guards were tall and strong, at least two meters tall, and the tallest one was even close to three meters tall.

Su Ziyu initially thought he was a giant.

Later, I learned that he was only a half-giant. The giants in this world were generally over six meters tall, and some giants with special bloodlines could even grow to 20 or 30 meters. Of course, this was still not as tall as the giant snake York mentioned. He said that the legendary giant snake was tens of thousands of meters long and could swallow even an adult dragon in one gulp.

Considering that York likes to brag, Su Ziyu thought that the giant snake was only about one or two hundred meters long at most.

This caravan is also preparing to head to the royal capital.

Su Ziyu prepared to follow them to avoid taking a detour and wasting more time.

The goods transported by the caravan were fur products from the north. These people were relatively silent and did not communicate much along the way. They just looked at Su Ziyu with curiosity from time to time. Although Su Ziyu was wearing a large cloak, his clothes and weapons were still quite eye-catching.

Night falls.

"Let's camp here and rest." shouted the old man in the lead.

soon.

Everyone piled the goods in a circle, some began to prepare food, and others were responsible for feeding the pack animals.

"Have you heard?"

“There’s going to be another war on the border.”

"The Black Queen's minions have awakened. Many monsters have run out." The guys talked while eating.

During this period, Su Ziyu also learned a lot about this world.

The chessboard kingdom has a clear boundary between black and white. The White Queen leads the kingdom composed of humans, while the Black Queen is the ruler of giants and monsters. The two sides have been in a stalemate for thousands of years. If the White Queen is not a title but a person, then this woman is a special existence who has lived for at least a thousand years.

She is infinitely close to 'God' in the human world.

Su Ziyu listened quietly to other people's conversation, trying to collect more information about this world.

In fact, he already had some guesses, but he still lacked the most crucial evidence.

"careful!"

"Something seems to be approaching!"

Superhuman perception gave Su Ziyu even sharper five senses. He suddenly stood up and said to the others, "It looks like a big guy!"

In the dark.

He seemed to hear a 'hissing' sound.

The others all stood up upon hearing this, and the guards even picked up their weapons. Some people seemed to have heard the noise, and their expressions suddenly became quite uneasy. "What the hell is that?"

"Everyone be careful!"

As soon as the words fell.

A huge black shadow suddenly swam out, and then huge snake heads appeared in the darkness. Their heads were nearly one meter in diameter, with black snake scales, and their cold vertical pupils were a turbid dark yellow. The bodies of these giant snakes were extremely large, and their body length alone was more than thirty meters by visual estimation.

"ah!"

"It's the offspring of the Gnawer! Run!"

“Oh my God!”

"Why are they here?!"

The entire caravan was thrown into chaos at once. The cries of beasts of burden could be heard in the darkness. Those gigantic dragon beasts seemed unable to resist and were instantly bitten to death by the giant snakes.

"What's going on? Why did so many giant snakes suddenly appear?" Su Ziyu's expression was also extremely solemn.

He picked up his backpack and pulled out the black short blade from his waist. When a giant snake attacked him, he suddenly swung the knife and cut a three or four meter long cut directly under its neck. A lot of smelly snake blood spilled out. The giant snake twitched its body wildly, and with a flick of its tail, it smashed the guy next to it who had no time to dodge into a pool of meat paste.

What is a nibble?

Are these giant snakes its descendants?

The Black Queen's minions?

Aren't they said to appear at the border? Why are there some here too?

The situation suddenly became very critical.

In the entire caravan, the only ones capable of posing a threat to these giant snakes are Su Ziyu and the half-giant. As for the others, they are simply their food.

Bang!

A dull gunshot rang out.

A giant snake that was more than 30 meters long was shot in the head by Su Ziyu.

The vitality of these giant snakes is not very strong. One shot from an anti-material sniper rifle can smash their heads. However, there are a lot of these giant snakes, at least a dozen of them. There is also a bigger guy on the dragon beast's side. It was the one that first bit to death the dragon beast that was nearly the size of an elephant.

"What now?"

"Retreat?"

The dull sound of gunfire seemed to attract more giant snakes. Su Ziyu suddenly felt a huge threat. He rolled over to avoid it, and then saw a giant snake spitting venom at his original position.

Sizzle.

The venom appears to be highly corrosive.

Su Ziyu's expression was quite hesitant at the moment, and his right hand was touching the pocket on his waist, in which was the Jet-03.

Run or fight?

Can you escape by running? Can you win by fighting?

At least we still have these caravan guards to help attract firepower. If we wait until they are completely wiped out, we will have no chance to fight again.

Some are trying to escape, others are fighting.

The scene was quite chaotic.

In the darkness, people were constantly being swallowed by the giant snake. Originally, there were more than a hundred people in this caravan, but now only dozens of them could be seen.
