“Rick!”
Hearing the shouts of his companions, Rick took a breath, let go of his hand, and let the spirit skeleton, which was emitting light blue light like snowflakes, float away.
Even with fur gloves, it is very dangerous to touch the spiritual remains that are fatal to the human species with bare hands. If the toxic ash corrodes this weak protection, the best result for him is to lose an arm.
But neither Rick, who was always rational, nor his companions turned a blind eye to such dangerous behavior. They just waved their hands vigorously and called their leader with proud expressions.
“I didn’t expect that we would be so lucky to encounter a migrating wolf pack. Now we don’t have to worry about the food or armor we have stored!”
A middle-aged man named Ivan skillfully threw the wolf corpse in his hand to a high place, letting it fall on the top of the group of corpses that were already as high as several people stacked on top of each other. Then he excitedly pushed the cart next to him.
Rick walked over silently, looked at the number of wolf corpses in the cart, and shook his head gently.
“not enough.”
Although there were several piles of corpses like this beside Ivan, the young man had no intention of being satisfied.
“If it is used for daily consumption, it is more than enough, and it can be used as a vanguard to convey God’s will. These are not worth mentioning. We need to continue to expand the search scope.”
“I see.”
Hearing Rick’s words, Ivan’s excited expression also subsided. He nodded seriously and conveyed the order to his companions in the distance.
Compared with the past exploration teams of two or three people, which were mostly hidden, the team now has dozens of people. But even so, in the face of a pack of several hundred wolves, it is still difficult. A very disparate comparison.
With this level of beast migration, even if he stayed within the base area, it would be difficult for Rick to guarantee that there would be no casualties. But now, he only used less than one-tenth of his main force to annihilate the wolves without any casualties on his own side.
In the past, this was something that Rick would not dare to dream about in his dreams, but now, it is just the most insignificant of the changes brought about by that adult.
Change is a good thing.
In an ironclad fact, the residents of the Kingdom of Elkia, or almost all human species, have accepted this sentence as a creed.
In such an irresistible trend, Rick can only choose to stand on the unknown road ahead.
Only the will of God Roland lasts forever.
Rick recited this motto silently in his heart and looked at the distant sky.
Since Roland successively killed the Final Dragon and the God of Victory, emotions such as shock, amazement, and awe have spread to every corner of the planet, not only among the lofty Flügels, but also among every race.
Everyone felt the feeling that a storm was coming and realized how bad the situation was.
In these days, even the conservative dragon elves have begun to seek alliances with the fantasy species, not to mention other races that have been preparing for war. No race can stay away from the war that may break out at any time.
The human race is the first to bear the brunt.
Compared with other races, they are much more miserable. Not only are their traces completely exposed, but they have also lost the protection of the gods. In this era when all races have begun to replenish supplies, their situation is like a country sandwiched between Russia and Germany. , no, it’s worse than that.
Even if Rick started breaking the plan into pieces after Roland left, in just a few days, very few fires could reach the designated place with human foot power.
When Rick suppressed his despair and continued to arrange the real and fake escape routes, Croni informed him of the news that Roland had returned to the Kingdom of Elkia.
So, Rick made a decisive decision.
He took his sister, who was the titular queen, to plead with Roland, hoping to get his protection.
After making the request, Rick thought about the future situation of mankind. If it is better, it may remain as it was when Veleslana was around. If he is unlucky, he may become the slave of the other party and never get anything. relief.
But no matter how bad it is, it is much better than death. From a personal point of view, death is liberation, but from a racial point of view, living is hope.
But to his surprise, Roland readily agreed to his request and put forward a condition that surprised everyone.
“I want the human race to be the vanguard of conveying my will.”
The young man sitting on the throne said these words in a matter-of-fact tone.
“It’s too troublesome to find them one by one. You should form a leading army and convey my will to them through actions. Surrender or die. Considering that the human species still has a promising future, starting with the tenth-ranked Ex-Machina. , I will take care of the races higher than it myself, but on the other hand, I will leave all the lower-level races to you.”
After Roland finished speaking, Rick’s eyes widened.
He could understand Roland’s thoughts. It would be much easier to find someone to do it for him than running over one by one.
And to be fair, the other party’s requirements are not excessive. They are just vanguard soldiers conveying their will, and they do not need to defeat the entire race.
Just invade the hinterland of other races and then convey orders. Anyway, no race would be ignorant enough to refuse the request of the recently popular god species.
For any race except humans, this is a good opportunity to express loyalty and flattery. However, the weak human race is really powerless to receive such benefits from heaven, and may even be crushed to death by him.
However, after Rick was ready to risk being crushed to death to test how far he would go, the gods took the initiative to send blessings.
Rick still remembers those teasing and ecstatic words.
“Although it is not impossible to bestow the power of grace on you, judging from the growth rate of the human species, it is a bit too slow.”
The blessings given by the gods have the power to expand one’s own container and draw out the potential within it. However, the same blessings will have very different changes in different candidates and different races, and the time required to become stronger will also be very different. .
“——So, humans can become my dependents.”
Then, the human race was given the blood and flesh of the gods.
After the overwhelming orange liquid submerged the Kingdom of Elkia, humanity took on a new look.
Although there is no change in appearance or ability, even without relying on the blessing of the gods, the strength gained through daily exercise is far greater than before, and with the blessing, there are new changes every day.
The most important thing is that there are several outstanding characters who have awakened the Elf Corridor and have the qualifications to become magicians.
According to what Rick got from the gods, this is proof that they are a native race.
“Although it is not very obvious, every human species in this world has a trace amount of magic in their body. If it is not disturbed and continues to evolve, human beings may become a magical civilization where magic is popularized by everyone.”
With such relaxed and freehand words, the human species has undergone earth-shaking changes. Not only has its resistance to spiritual corpses been greatly improved, but its stronger physical strength and the possession of magicians who can use magic items have made them more efficient in both exploration and hunting. All increased significantly.
If the orcs were only used as the imaginary enemy, the current human race would have turned from an egg that could easily be broken into a hard nut to crack.
“Speaking of which, before that adult left, Rick, you received a second gift, right?”
Ivan asked curiously as he pushed the cart towards his companions.
The image of blood is the water that symbolizes the source of life. This is a gift that all people receive, but the deeper power needs to be sifted.
Not every human being can become a warrior, not to mention that even among warriors, the proportion of elites is only one in a hundred.
So far, apart from Croni, the only person who is qualified to receive the second gift is Rick.
“That’s right, that’s right, but I can’t reveal it to you yet. After all, I haven’t received the public permission from God Roland yet.”
“I didn’t mean to know. This is disrespectful to that adult.” Ivan shrugged, as if joking, “I’m just curious. You who usually remain calm-faced, now that you have gained a new After the gift, I was so frightened that I trembled, what kind of ceremony was that?”
“…”
Rick smiled bitterly and subconsciously touched his neck.
“This answer is for you to experience by yourself in the future. Anyway, God has given us the props on how to start the second ceremony. After you have achieved greatness, I will personally act as the executor of your ceremony.”
“As for now, it’s better to leave cautiously. With so much stored food, I’m afraid it will attract some difficult guys like last time.”
“good,”
Ivan nodded, and when he was about to continue urging, another exclamation came over.
“Rick! An unknown enemy is approaching!”
That was the message sent by Ya Lei, who had been a member of the exploration team with them.
“Calm down! Give up the harvest, throw away all the excess weight, and prepare to escape!”
Rick said in a deep voice and gave the order calmly.
In an instant, only Ivan was left with the long knife from his waist, ready to stand by at any time. The same was true for his companions not far away. In many experiences in the past, Rick had already obtained everyone’s skills. of trust.
As long as the other party gives an order, they will obey it whether it is fighting to the death or fleeing in despair.
As Rick walked towards higher ground, he took out the improved spiritual needle disk in his hand to sense the strength of the enemy.
But just halfway through, the boy’s voice froze in place, and then he spoke in a sharp voice like a blade.
“Demons! All retreat!”
Ivan’s legs started running instinctively, but the expression on his face was still slightly startled.
The monster species is a variant of the fantasy species. The monsters created by the demon king are basically beasts with only half-witness, such as ogres or trolls.
For humans in the past, even if the opponent was a low-level demon species that was not worth mentioning, it was enough to exterminate them.
Even if they lose their rationality and do not take instinctive actions of vigilance or lurking, the demon species are still worthy of being strong among the lower races. Most of the members of the former exploration team were sacrificed at the hands of the demon species.
But that’s just the past. Today’s human species, as long as they work together, have the ability to kill demon species. In fact, in the last hunting, it was Rick who completed this feat himself and gained the upgrade. Chance.
The doubts in Ivan’s heart had not yet been answered, but the deafening roar that came from afar gave him the answer.
He suddenly turned back and looked at the figure in the distance that was getting closer and closer. It was three human heights, with jet black skin and sharp fangs protruding from its lower jaw. It looked like a legendary demon.
The most important thing is that after noticing Ivan’s gaze, the tall and burly monster showed a humane smile, and then quickly moved in their direction, following at an unhurried speed.
Obviously, unlike most of its beast-like counterparts, it is a high-level demon species with high intelligence.
Cold sweat broke out on Ivan’s back. There was an absolute power gap between the upper-level demon race and the lower-level race. It was simply not something they could conquer now.
Amidst the ferocious roar, Ivan barely suppressed his accelerated heartbeat, controlled his trembling hands, and soon caught up with the end of the team.
He can no longer move forward. As the strongest member of the exploration team, when necessary, he must sacrifice his life to delay time in order to protect more of his companions.
“Rick, we have been targeted, let me sacrifice.”
Ivan smiled and looked at the silent boy beside him.
“No, Ivan, you will be the temporary leader of the hunting team and lead them back to the kingdom. I will meet you later.”
“Rick, no, your value is much higher than mine…”
“That’s why I do this. This is an order.” Rick’s steps paused, and finally became slower and slower, and he waved to Ivan nonchalantly.
“Don’t worry, I will definitely come back alive. By the way, if you come back earlier than me, go find Croni. Although you haven’t noticed it yet, I have a hunch that you have achieved greatness. If you ask, she will help you upgrade with bows and arrows.”
Bow and arrow?
Ivan still didn’t understand the relationship between these two words and upgrade, but under the intimidation of the order and his trust in Rick, he had no choice but to continue running forward in silence.
Seeing his actions, Rick also took a deep breath, turned his head, looked at the superior demon species behind him who stared at him with ferocious eyes, as if he was about to fly over and tear him apart in the next moment, and sighed.
“I really don’t want to fight with super-class guys like you, but there’s nothing I can do about it.”
He touched his chest lightly, and then something incredible happened.
It was obviously a body of flesh and blood, but Rick’s hand seemed to have no body, and he stretched it directly in. When he took his hand out again, he already held an exquisite flag there.
That’s the game, the king of chess.
Rick stood silently, pulled out the long knife from his waist, and threw the chess piece in the direction of the demon species.
He couldn’t help but think of the moment when the god he respected and admired shot his own neck with an arrow that grew out of flesh and blood and looked like amethyst.
Roland told him that as long as he believed in the power of the soul and guided it out, he would not die in this ceremony.
Facts have proved that although the other party often has a shockingly bad taste, he did not lie on this matter.
Using his current strength to fight against high-level demon species is enough to erase all the advantages brought by the protection, no, not just erase it.
Such a gap makes people wonder, is it really possible to fight with it?
From a practical point of view, this is absolutely impossible.
But…if it’s a game, it’s completely different.
“bring it on!”
Rick took a deep breath, and his mouth unconsciously curled up with a hint of pleasure.
“——Watch me pass the level in one life!”
