Mu Liang took Yue Feiyan to the street below the high ground.
On the wide street, Wei Geng and sixteen hunting team members were already waiting.
"My Lord City Lord". Wei Geng shouted respectfully.
"Sir". 16 hunting team members shouted together.
"Let's go". Mu Liang didn't talk nonsense and took them away from the rock tortoise and came to the ground.
At this time, the sky was already a bit dim.
Mu Liang pulled open his sleeves and checked the time of his wrist watch, around 4:30 in the afternoon.
"What is this?", Yue Feiyan probed curiously, her red eyes staring straight.
She saw a very delicate disk, shiny, and the small needles in it were still moving.
"It depends on the time". Mu Liang lowered his sleeves.
Watches are among the top few things brought from the earth.
"Look at the time?". Yue Feiyan blinked blankly and looked up at the sky.
Don't you know the time just by looking at the sky?
"Let's go, we try to come back as soon as possible".
Mu Liang didn't want to stay until midnight before coming back.
The night in the wilderness is very cold.
The rock tortoise stays at a certain distance from the dry woods, otherwise the size and breath of the rock tortoise will scare away some fierce beasts if they are too close.
Mu Liang took the lead and walked ahead. In the distance is a wilderness and hills with a large area of dry trees.
"Lord City Lord, we are going to enter from the dry woods over there to find prey". Wei Geng came up to ask for instructions.
It is too difficult to find a prey in the wilderness of the wasteland.
If everyone does not spread out to find it, it will be difficult to find a fierce beast.
"Go". Mu Liang waved his hand.
He is also out hunting for the first time, intending to observe other people's hunting methods.
Moreover, Mu Liang has already let the red ghost spiders and tricolor lizards enter the dry woods in advance.
"According to the previous distribution, be careful". Wei Geng exhorted the players.
"Yes".
The hunting team members were dispersed in a team of four.
Wei Geng followed Mu Liang with four people. As long as the city owner was in danger, he would lead the team to support.
"Let's go in too".
Mu Liang took the red-haired girl into the dry woods.
"Neigh~~".
The dry trees were blown by the wind with a weird whistling sound.
Yue Feiyan shrank her neck in fright, and ran to Mu Liang's side.
She wanted to pull the corner of Mu Liang's clothes several times, but she was a little embarrassed.
Yue Feiyan decided to break the silence and find something to say: "Mu Liang, why do you think the trees here are dead?".
"I don't know either". Mu Liang shook his head.
He was also thinking about this question along the way, why is there such a large area of trees dying.
If the whole world is like this, what about the oxygen problem?
Major disaster? Or man-made?
Yue Feiyan has a girl's innocent tone: "If the trees here are like the trees in Black Tortoise, it would be great".
"We will create a forest in Black Tortoise City". Mu Liang also thought that there was a forest, and it would be pleasing to watch.
"I guess it will take a long time?". Yue Feiyan frowned her red eyebrows, and touched her pretty face a little worried.
She hoped that before she died, she could still see the woods that Mu Liang said.
"Don't think too much, hurry up and find prey".
Mu Liang watched the movements of the red-haired girl, and knew what she was thinking without guessing.
As for how long it takes to build a forest, as long as the fierce beast spar is enough, it is not a matter of 1 or 2 years.
"Oh". Yue Feiyan flattened her mouth.
She found the topic to be bold, but was immediately ended by Mu Liang.
Looking for prey in the dead woods is very boring, everything looks so monotonous, only the weird sway of dead trees is accompanied.
The sky was getting darker and darker until the light on the horizon disappeared.
"I still haven't found a prey". A flash of fire rose from Yue Feiyan's palm, illuminating the surroundings.
"It's normal if there are few prey". Mu Liang contacted the two domesticated beasts, Xiaohong and Xiaocai, and there was no trace of prey either.
"Ah? Why do you say that?".
Yue Feiyan finally found the topic, but she wouldn't want to end it like this.
"The problem of the food chain". Mu Liang said lightly.
Both carnivores and herbivores are part of the food chain. A problem with one ring means that the other ring will have a big problem.
Without plants, without herbivores, there will be fewer carnivores.
The only thing that can survive tenaciously is some insects and small animals.
Or, there are some evolutionary strange creatures.
"I don't understand". Yue Feiyan shook his head blankly.
"I will have the opportunity to tell you in the future, but keep quiet now".
Mu Liang put his index finger on his lips, indicating that there is a situation.
"Hm". Yue Feiyan nodded suddenly, and the flame on his palm rose slightly.
Mu Liang squinted his eyes, his ears moved slightly, maximizing his senses.
From just now, he felt that something was wrong, something lurking around peeping at the two of them.
Mu Liang also summoned the red ghost spider and the tricolor lizard nearby, preparing to encircle it to see what the lurking creature was.
"Guru~~". Yue Feiyan was so nervous that she secreted her mouth water crazily, and then couldn't help swallowing.
Taste~~
A subtle sound.
"Careful".
Mu Liang's expression suddenly changed, his hands wrapped around the red-haired girl's slender waist, his legs suddenly kicked, and he jumped more than five meters high.
Boom~~
Where they stood, the ground suddenly bulged.
A behemoth drilled out with earth and rocks, with a four-petal mouth wide open, and whip-like thorns fluttered with their tongues.
"It turned out to be underground".
In the air, Mu Liang still had time to take a look at the beast that attacked them.
He embraced the stunned red-haired girl, and squirted a spider silk out of his hand, sticking to a dead tree not far away.
With another kick, the two of them were ejected and stood on the dead branches.
"Nine-section Demon Insect". Yue Feiyan reacted and cried out aloud.
She hugged Mu Liang's waist tightly with her hands, her red eyes were full of horror and fear, staring at the weird worm who was still twisting her body in search of prey.
"Nine-section monster?". Mu Liang looked at the monster carefully.
He did find that the worm's body had round joints, just like joints made up of tires.
"Nine-section Demon Insect is an intermediate and low-level beast". Yue Feiyan knew the appearance of Nine-section Demon Insect from the hunting team.
She used to ask some hunting team members to tell her the appearance and habits of beasts, just to one day be able to participate in hunting.
"Oh, middle-level and lower-level beasts?", Mu Liang's eyes lit up.
Even if it is not domesticated, a middle-level and inferior fierce beast spar can transform a thousand evolution points.
"Hoarse~~".
The tongue of the Demon Insects shook a few times in the air, detecting that the prey was some distance away, and preparing to return to the ground to lurk again.
"Want to run? That won't work".
Mu Liang let go of the red-haired girl and found that his waist was still being held by Yue Feiyan.
He patted the girl's hand and whispered, "You are ready, I will catch it".
"Okay". Yue Feiyan's pretty face flushed, and she cleverly let go of her hand, holding the dead tree trunk with her hands.
Swoosh
More than a dozen spider silks flew out, entwining the body of the Demon Insects, and the other end was glued to the surrounding tree trunks.
"Hoarse~~"
The nine-sectioned demon insect exposed its three-meter-long body on the ground, struggling violently, pulling the spider silk straight, and the dead tree trunk made a cracking sound.
"Really powerful". Mu Liang jumped to the ground and looked at the Nine Demon Insects from close range.
He found that the Demon Insect's appearance was very ugly, and it also exuded a strange smell, and he hesitated whether to tame it.
After all, every additional domesticated beast will consume some evolution points, especially large domesticated beasts, which need to be fed with evolution points every day.
The rock tortoise now consumes 60 evolution points every day to be enough for its actions.
Another point is that the cooperation and growth of domesticated beasts are all related to Mu Liang's future plans.
