Chapter 16 Carnival
The great elder looked at Yao with joy and kindness and said, "Yao, you have been recognized by the Stone of Life. Then according to the tradition of the settlement, you will have a single night of contact with the Stone of Life. This is a rare opportunity. How much power can be given depends on your destiny."
"Now the man-cannibal is outside, we don't have much time, I will take you to the Creation Room now."
Yao's mind was blank, and he followed the elder toward the building in the middle of the settlement. She suddenly turned around and looked at Huangquan. Seeing him nodding slightly, she suddenly felt courage in her heart.
The stone of life, the room of creation... Huangquan silently recited in his heart.
Fei Arrow walked over, slapped Huang Quan's shoulder, and said, "How is your injury? If you have nothing to do, go and have a drink with me."
"Drinking?" Huang Quan reacted quickly and immediately controlled his hand that almost raised his arrow.
"Yes! Haruka became a great samurai. This was a happy event for the entire settlement. All the adult soldiers were given some wine. If it weren't for this, where would they drink wine?"
The whole settlement was busy. A huge bonfire was set up in the center of the competition venue, and the women were busy preparing food, while a jar of wine was moved out of the underground warehouse and piled around the bonfire.
A whole deer was on the fire and was barbecuing. The golden grease fell into the fire one by one, causing the flames to soar into the sky. The fragrance attracted the children in the entire settlement. They gathered around the bonfire, staring at the roasted deer, and swallowed their saliva.
This day is simply a grand festival.
Feijian brought a large bowl of wine and gave it to Huangquan half. Then he couldn't help it and drank it clean in a few sips.
Huang Quan just took a sip and saw that the bowl of the flying arrow was empty. He smiled and said, "I'll finish drinking so soon, what should I drink in a while?"
"I will have a bowl when it officially begins." Warriors and excellent hunters will receive more supplies than ordinary warriors, which is the simplest rule of the settlement.
Huang Quan poured the wine in the bowl back to Fei Arrow half. Fei Arrow touched his head and smiled shyly, but he did not refuse, and he could not refuse.
In Huangquan's opinion, the wine brewed in the settlement is both light and sour, and has nothing to do with good wine. The memory of the empire is like yesterday. I am used to drinking the best good wine, so I naturally cannot drink this kind of homemade loose wine.
The wine taste is mixed with grains and fruits, and the brewing technology is simply not up to standard, and the selection of raw materials is also very problematic. The winemaking technology in this settlement is quite primitive, and it is even worse than that of the human race who was still in the farming era before the interstellar era.
After drinking, Fei Arrow's closeness to Huangquan increased a little more. He glanced at the Central Longhouse, his eyes were full of envy, and said, "Yao, it's really good luck. He was recognized by the Stone of Life! When we found you, she didn't know anything."
“Are there very few great warriors?”
Fei Arrow rolled his eyes and said, "Sometimes, I really don't know which settlement you came from. There are more than a few great warriors? It would be great to have a great warrior in a few decades. As long as there is a great warrior, the scale of the settlement will increase a lot in a few years."
"Can't you sense the power of the Stone of Life?"
"Of course I can feel that as long as I stay in the settlement, the Stone of Life will slowly enhance our strength, but it is not that simple to get a response."
Huang Quan didn't say anything, thinking that Shenghui would certainly not respond, but the Stone of Life is indeed a bit strange. Shenghui is not so gentle. It seems that if you have the chance, you should see with your own eyes what the Stone of Life is going on.
The power of the Holy Ray Stone mastered by the empire is quite violent. In the process of accepting the Holy Ray, even if it is the elite selected from the entire army, the death rate has always remained high. All those who can survive are tough and strong guys.
Soon, the carnival began, the wine jars were opened one by one, and the barbecue was distributed into the bowls of everyone like running water. At that moment, a beautiful girl and a young soldier were singing and dancing around the bonfire.
Fei Arrow had already finished drinking his own wine and joined the crowd dancing by the fire.
Huangquan sat quietly. For some reason, behind the carnival in front of him, there was always a faint sadness.
At this moment, in the room of creation, Yao was in a daze, not knowing how to get the power given by the Stone of Life.
The room of creation is not big, full of milky white light, it flows slowly, and it seems to have a substance.
Bathed in the light of the Stone of Life, it was like soaking in cold animal milk, unspeakable comfort and smoothness. But the power in the light flowed through the girl's body and was not absorbed at all.
The Great Elder didn't know how to absorb the power of the Stone of Life. If he could understand, he wouldn't be stuck in front of the threshold of the Great Warrior for a lifetime.
The girl tried to call on the Stone of Life, but just like in the past decade, there was no movement.
She reached out to touch the light, which was smooth and cold, but it would not penetrate into the skin at all. She even tried to swallow it, but the light was not water after all, so where could she swallow things?
After trying all kinds of methods, she had no results, which made her feel panic.
"Has the Great Elder made a mistake?" As soon as this thought came, she felt that she was really not a great warrior.
The girl became depressed and hugged her knees and buried her head in. I don’t know how long the dark mood lasted, but she thought of Huangquan and suddenly a flash of inspiration.
Thinking of it, she was recognized as a great warrior because the elder personally felt her fist strength. Thinking of this, she felt nervous and punched forward in a false way according to the method taught by Huang Quan.
Multiple thin lines formed a force like a flood, causing her punch to whistle slightly. Just as the moment she punched, she suddenly felt that the light seemed to begin to seep into her body, flowing to the thin lines like a target, and then being absorbed.
Yao was surprised and happy, sure it was not an illusion, and immediately punched again. This time the feeling was clearer, and the thin lines were indeed absorbing the power of light!
She didn't know the changes in her body. If she could see them, she would find that there were actually some special body tissues inside her body. At this moment, more than a dozen body tissues were glowing slightly, constantly pulsing, and absorbing the light of stars.
It was late at night and the people who were caring finally dispersed. They sleep when they should sleep, get drunk when they should be drunk, and many young men and women are taking the time to do what they want to do.
Tomorrow, the warriors will go to war, and the hunters will also take on the responsibility of defending their homes. However, since there are human-cannibal ghosts in the hunting ground, the camp will sooner or later be discovered, so there is no need for sacrifice, and the future is also known.
And in the process of finding a new camp, I don’t know how many people can go to the end.
Huang Quan was still sitting by the bonfire. At this moment, there were only embers left in the bonfire. The red light made his face look light and dark. The arrows had already returned, and he was actually drunk. In fact, they were only more than two bowls together.
The food in the settlement is limited, and even less can be used to make wine. As an excellent hunter, Flying Arrow has gained more shares than most people, and no more can he drink it.
Huangquan looked around, his eyes flashed through houses and the dark night forests on the edge of his vision, and he still felt a strong and unreality.
He has experienced countless wars, wandered on the line of life and death many times, and killed many powerful people who seem unparalleled. No matter how desperate he fell into, he never paniced and always calmed down.
However, he had never encountered such a thing. It was ten thousand years later when he woke up.
For him, this is a completely strange world.
Like a maze-like rainforest, huge mosquitoes, strange and ferocious beasts, and human-cannibals of unknown origin.
When he was in the forest, he felt that the whole world had a faint malice. This malice was everywhere, and the most direct manifestation was that his recovery speed slowed down. It was not until he entered this settlement and was within the scope of the Stone of Life that the recovery speed began to normal.
Huang Quan tried to move his body, and only one-third of his special body containing the power of the Holy Ray responded, which means that his strength is about one-third of his peak.
However, one-third of his power was enough to overturn several Dragon Cavalry Warriors, and it was no problem to deal with warriors like Giant Rock.
Huang Quan stood up bored and came to a big tree.
The trunk of this tree is straight upward, with almost no bifurcations, and the top canopy is tall and dense, forming a natural dome, protecting the entire settlement. These trees are planted around the settlement, plus shrubs under the trees to form a natural barrier.
While thinking, he subconsciously tapped the tree trunk lightly. Two tinging sounds attracted his attention. It was obviously a tree, but how could it knock out the sound of metal and stone?
