Chapter 32: The Slave Trader
The two walked together and walked out of the cave together in the dark.
The silly roe deer was left alone in the cave. Before leaving, Gu Mi set up two pointed wooden fences at the entrance of the cave as a defense.
If there is something that does not have long eyes to attack here, this can be resisted for a while at least, and she will get the news immediately and can come back in time to rescue.
Today, the meaning of silly roe deer to Gu Mi is not as much as before.
It is now one of Cheng Ke's 'family members'. If something happens to her halfway, not to mention Cheng Ke's mood, her job transfer mission will definitely have a big problem.
Gu Mi didn't want to see this result, so he would rather be troublesome now.
Cheng Ke on the side watched Gu Mi's actions quietly, his eyes flashed, but he didn't say anything.
It's just that on the next journey of exploration, she automatically stands behind Gu Mi, consciously becoming a guardian, guarding her against the potential dangers that may appear behind her.
Gu Mi immediately noticed Cheng Ke's actions, she secretly raised the corners of her lips, and tacitly said nothing, acquiescing to Cheng Ke's choice of her position.
The forest in the dark is perilous.
As soon as the two came out of the cave, they consciously took out their weapons.
Gu Mi did not choose to take the blood-colored machete, but took out the orange-level weapon, the blue-flame horns, which was obtained from the blue-flame rhino leader.
The blood-colored machete was too high-level, too ostentatious, and the pair of weapons accompanied her to cut down an unknown number of beasts, drank enough blood, and the murderous aura condensed on it was too heavy, when she took it out, it was like a pair of bright big bulbs Like, in the eyes of all the monsters lurking in the darkness, they flicker wildly.
tantamount to provocation.
Are they afraid that they won't be troubled by monsters?
So for better concealment, she temporarily changed her weapon.
Anyway, the properties of the blue flame horns and double knives are also quite good.
The night was silent, without the slightest sound, except for the occasional slight salsa from the wind blowing through the treetops.
The whimpering sound that appeared before has disappeared, but Gu Mi is no longer confused this time, and she has a clear goal to go to the abnormal place detected with God-level perception before.
Arriving at the destination, all you can see is a small open space surrounded by a few giant trees.
The two of them squatted silently into the half-height grass, and under the cover of the dense grass, they looked forward through the gap between the grass blades, and secretly checked the situation.
No one noticed that a small wooden branch quietly stretched out under their feet, circling little by little, spreading upward, and rolling towards Cheng Ke's exposed ankle
"!"
Suddenly he noticed something When he touched his ankle, Cheng Ke was suddenly startled, subconsciously wanted to cry out, but Gu Mi, who was discovered in time, covered his mouth with his hand.
Gu Mi turned his head and asked her with his eyes: 'What's going on? '
Cheng Ke wrinkled his face, stretched out a finger and tapped his feet.
Gu Mi looked down and saw the small piece of wood that was wrapping around Cheng Ke's ankle. She raised her eyebrows unexpectedly, and then reached out and gently poked the small wood branch that was not as thick as her finger with her index finger.
Being poked, Xiao Muzhi twisted his body, then released Cheng Ke's ankle, turned his head around Gu Mi's index finger, followed her fingertips to the palm of her hand, and slowly condensed into a tree with small hands and feet. A little tree man with a small head. With the only two tender leaves on the top of his head, the little tree man sat in the palm of Gu Mi's palm like a baby, looking up at her with a pair of big round, clear eyes, full of pity. . It can't speak, it can only stare at Gu Mi so quietly. But Gu Mi could see the look of help in his eyes. The other hand poked Cheng Ke, raised the little tree man in the palm of his hand, still the silent communication between his eyes: 'This is the kid you said before? '
Cheng Ke shook his head, and gestured with both hands on the baby tree man: 'No, that one is bigger than this little thing. '
Even if she wants to make friends, she can't talk to this kind of baby. Well, they can't talk yet, and I don't know if they are weaned. How can they communicate with each other?
'But...'
Cheng Ke touched his chin, frowned and carefully looked at the little tree man baby, the little tree man baby seemed to know that the human elder sister was looking at him, and obediently raised his head and let her look at it.
'It looks familiar, I think I've seen it on some big tree man. '
Cheng Ke said in his own sign language with gestures.
Amazingly, Gu Mi understood.
There was a ray of understanding in her eyes, and then she put the baby tree man in Cheng Ke's palm and motioned to her: 'Wait for me to come back here. '
When the words fell, Gu Mi hid his breath and disappeared from Cheng Ke's eyes.
It didn't disappear, so the big living person was actually still there, and it could still be seen with the naked eye, but Cheng Ke couldn't perceive Gu Mi's existence at all, and the living thing in front of him was like a cloud of air.
She opened her eyes slightly in surprise.
Immediately, he lowered his head unconsciously, only to find that he was in sync with the expression of the little tree man baby in his palm.
At this time, Gu Mi had truly disappeared into the grass where he was hiding.
Like a top assassin, she stepped silently, subtly hiding her figure in every shadow, and approached the target little by little.
The closer you get, the heavier the originally extremely subtle sense of disobedience.
Gu Mi wandered around this place, and finally, based on the feedback of god-level perception, he selected the weakest spot, and stabbed the tip of the knife in his hand sharply.
"Bang! Kaka..."
There was a crisp sound like glass breaking, and the world in front of him began to take the tip of the knife as the origin, and cracked to the surrounding, gradually revealing a broken transparent enchantment.
Is this enchantment hindering her exploration?
Gu Mi didn't hesitate, the other hand slashed again!
The enchantment broke through the surface, and the shattering speed continued to accelerate. Soon the entire inverted hemispherical enchantment was covered with cracks. At a certain moment, it suddenly collapsed, turning into countless crystal fragments scattered down, and dissipated in the air. Countless starlights disappeared into the darkness.
As soon as the barrier disappeared, Gu Mi rushed forward with a knife without waiting for the people inside to react.
The pale blue double knives burned with blue flames, like a ghost in the dark night, knocking down all the enemies inside in an instant.
Before they could even let out a scream, they fell to the ground, burned to ashes by the flaming blue flames on their bodies, leaving only a few items that exploded.
"You... did you act so neatly?"
Watching Gu Mi's performance like an art, Cheng Ke was trembling, and he couldn't even speak.
Gu Mi glanced at her sideways, her voice was slightly cold: "Are you afraid?"
"No, no, they deserved what they deserved, and they deserved death."
Cheng Ke shook his head again and again, holding the little tree man baby out of the grass and trotting all the way. He came to a tree man who was bound by ropes and fell unconscious on the ground, apparently looking like a teenager.
Just after the barrier was broken, she could clearly see the scene in front of her.
In that open space, there appeared at once many embarrassed figures who were either locked in cages or bound by ropes and fell to the ground.
One of them is her little tree friend.
Even when Cheng Ke saw him, he was being stomped on the head by a burly man with a wild look. He was already in a coma and was constantly humiliated.
Those ugly words could not be heard.
Because before she could hear it clearly, Gu Mi had already wiped out all these obviously bad guys.
"They are human adventurers among the aborigines, and at the same time have another identity: slave traders, who specialize in stealing, abducting, destroying small villages, forcibly plundering aliens, and even good-looking or strong human races, as slaves, Bring it to sell to those wealthy nobles and merchants with special hobbies, or sell it as a slave coolie, etc."
Gu Mi lowered her head, her expression was hidden in the shadows by the falling hair on her forehead, and her voice said coldly. people's information.
Sensing that the breath on her body was not right, Cheng Ke opened his mouth hesitantly, but did not dare to say anything.
Looking at Gu Mi like this, she was a little suspicious.
Was she once persecuted by this group of slave traders?
But it's impossible to think about it.
The man in front of him was the first big-shot figure to become a lord, who was the first to become a lord a few days before the start of this survival game. How could such a thing happen to him?
Shaking his head, Cheng Ke, who threw out the unreliable thoughts in his mind, found a white-level dagger from the card book and helped cut the ropes from the bound friends on the ground.
Seeing this, Gu Mi no longer indulged in the memories of the past. He helped split the wooden cages on the ground one by one with a knife, and released all the people who were curled up inside.
"Woooo..." One of the little girls who was released realized that she had been rescued, and couldn't help crying with joy. She covered her mouth and whimpered, but Gu Mi glared back as if warning.
"Everything is quiet, don't make a sound, this group is not sure if there will be other accomplices, if you make a noise and attract them, they may not be able to leave!
" An older fox orc woman immediately covered her mouth to prevent her from making any more noise.
Seeing her performance, Gu Mi's heart sank.
It seems that this group of people really have accomplices.
That's right, she just killed only six people, and the level generally hovers between 8 and 12. Among them, there is only one person who has changed careers. It is impossible for these few people to successfully capture this young man in the huge forest. It is said that there are more than 20 slaves.
Therefore, they must have accomplices who continue to wander outside, and even those accomplices are stronger than the group of people left behind.
"Cheng Ke, we have to speed up."
"Okay."
After thinking about this, Gu Mi immediately reminded Cheng Ke, Cheng Ke responded, and without asking why, the speed of his subordinates silently increased a lot.
The two cooperated, and with the help of other people who got out of trouble, everyone was rescued soon.
Those who are still able to move consciously carry or support those who are comatose or inconvenient. Everyone takes advantage of the night to escape from this place that is like hell for them under the leadership of Gu Mi. .
Before leaving, Gu Mi had not forgotten to take away his spoils.
What she got from this group of dehumanized wicked people, she took it with no regrets.
The cave where he was hiding can't be returned.
It is too close to this place, and the cave is not big enough to accommodate so many people.
So Gu Mi simply thought about it for less than half a second on the road, and decided to go back first to pick up the silly roe deer, and then rush back to his territory overnight.
In fact, it is not very far from her territory when she is serious, so Gu Mi is very worried about whether she will encounter the accomplices of these slave traders on the territory.
Even with the protection of the territorial protection array and fence, she did not think that Rabbit Xiaosi and Avery, who were currently less than tenth-level in the territory's highest combat power, could stop those vicious people.
