Simply as Lin Chen used the rules of success to idiot Duan Yang, Wang Chao additionally felt he wanted to be taught one thing.

In fact, it wasn’t as a result of he was additionally trapped in a determined state of affairs. He simply wished to drink one thing heat—the scene within the village in entrance of him was too bizarre.

It was scorching and humid within the rainforest, displaying indicators that heavy rainfall was coming. The village was coated with a layer of white, gauze-like mist. The encircling mist had the identical coloration as milk, however the style wasn’t as candy and as a substitute had a fishy scent.

They stepped ahead on the fallen leaves all around the floor, unable to maneuver ahead for some time.

The entrance was empty.

The tawny land was overgrown with weeds. Crops grew particularly quick within the rainforest. Some inexperienced vines had entangled thatched huts distinctive to the Gaomeng individuals, as in the event that they had been forbidden territory.

There was nobody contained in the huts. Sporadic thatches fell to the bottom, and so they present in one of many huts just a little lady’s pink blanket that was hanging on the fence.

There was nobody within the lodge. All that was current was a dilapidated picket signal that was swaying with the empty wind, which confirmed “Lodging” within the Dana language.

Strolling alongside the village, they noticed a easy elementary faculty with a development assist signal and a medical station for Medical doctors With out Borders. Wang Chao adopted Xing Conglian into the medical station and walked round. There have been no individuals or docs, however the medication inside the cupboards was gone, leaving solely empty white hospital beds that gave off a chilly feeling.

Subsequent to the medical station was a stylish store that had its doorways open. Many issues on the cabinets had been scattered in every single place, trying like a multitude.

Xing Conglian walked out of the medical station and turned in the direction of the store.

Wang Chao adopted him in gentle steps and instantly unintentionally stepped on one thing slippery that he virtually fell. As a result of the environment had been too quiet and bizarre, he didn’t dare yell out loud and will solely swallow his scream again down his throat. He coated his mouth and lowered his head. There was a clump of brown fungi on the bottom. The fungus he trampled on seemed like a horrific animal limb.

He raised his head and noticed that his boss had already walked into the store. After glancing on the issues on the cabinets, his boss squatted down and commenced to look by the messy items thrown on the bottom.

Wang Chao hurriedly adopted and virtually tripped once more over the particles on the ground. He took a more in-depth look and located that the bottom was affected by on a regular basis objects similar to condoms, paper cups, and cleaning soap, leaving no place for him to face.

He peeked at his boss’ face once more and noticed the anger in his boss’ expression was fading and had turned reasonably chilly.

“Boss?” he requested tentatively. “What the hell occurred right here?”

After he completed talking, he seen Xing Conglian’s sharp gaze sweeping in the direction of him, so he rapidly fell silent.

“What do you assume is lacking right here?”

Wang Chao fastidiously bypassed the issues on the bottom and walked to Xing Conglian’s facet, the place he seemed on the pile of colourful objects on the bottom.

“There’s no meals?”

“What else?”

“There’s no ingesting water, sweets, or alcohol…”

“What does this imply?”

“It means… somebody took away the requirements to maintain life, however what in regards to the alcohol?”

“To outlive within the wild, alcohol is extraordinarily essential,” Xing Conglian replied.

Kang An and Moda Nar, the Gaomeng bar proprietor, walked on the finish. The bar proprietor checked out all the things round him as his eyes modified from suspicion to shock, after which from shock to horror. Lastly, he took just a few steps ahead and stepped on the plastic baggage all around the floor. He grabbed Xing Conglian’s collar and mentioned angrily, “What the hell is happening right here? What did you do to my individuals?”

Xing Conglian checked out Moda Nar’s expression as if he had been saying, “Excuse me, are you mentally in poor health?” He stretched out his hand and pulled the bar proprietor again, picked up a field of cigarettes on the bottom, opened it, took one out, and lit it. He then mentioned to Kang An as he raised his chin, “Return and get these two simply now.”

“Why Boss?” Kang An was not sure of Xing Conglian’s intention.

Xing Conglian let loose a puff of his cigarette and easily mentioned, “Go.”

Maybe as a result of his boss was in a nasty temper and was too scary, however Kang An stopped speaking nonsense and rapidly circled and ran away.

“The place is your tribe’s ammunition depot? Are you aware?” After he completed ordering Kang An, Xing Conglian lowered his head and picked out a pack of pink issues from the nook of a pile of particles, threw it to Wang Chao, after which walked out of the shop with out trying again.

Wang Chao took a more in-depth look, solely to search out that his boss had simply thrown him a bag of Skittles. He adopted fortunately after. “Boss, Boss, didn’t you say you wouldn’t take a single needle or thread* from the lots?”

*(一针一线) Idiom referring to one thing very small.

“Shut up,” Xing Conglian mentioned impatiently.

Because the distant relative of the chief of the Gaomeng Tribe, Moda Nar was aware about some tribal secrets and techniques. He took them to the jungle exterior the village and looked for some time earlier than he mysteriously opened a large tree after which walked in.

Wang Chao adopted him into the tree, surprised. The trunk was hole and scorching. The stagnant air smelled strongly of gunpowder. Positive sufficient, there was a small cellar below the trunk.

When the lights got here on, the scene within the cellar made the bald bar proprietor scream.

All of the neatly positioned ammunition packing containers had been overturned, and all of the army-green iron packing containers had been empty, as if they’d been looted. Simply standing there, they might think about the chaotic scene when the troopers of the Gaomeng Tribe had been fetching ammunition.

Moda Nar fell to his knees, coated his face, and began crying, solely to obtain a kick from Xing Conglian.

The bald bar proprietor checked out him with pink eyes. “We’re late. My persons are all lacking!”

“Why are you being so emotional?” Xing Conglian mentioned irritably.

Wang Chao whispered, “Boss, are the Gaomeng individuals so fierce? Did all the village set off to struggle another tribe? Which tribe provoked them thus far? This should be some form of revenge for killing the chief and taking the princess, proper?”

“Do you assume that’s doable?” Xing Conglian bit into the cigarette butt as he mentioned flippantly.

“Unlikely. I heard the Gaomeng Tribe is extra civilized and doesn’t have the place of a princess,” Wang Chao mentioned regretfully. “However isn’t that what Kang An’s intelligence says?”

“Heh, often the lads exit to kill, however there aren’t even any outdated individuals or kids left behind the village?”

“Then why did the individuals right here instantly disappear?”

“Perhaps they ran to save lots of their lives,” Xing Conglian mentioned.

Pondering of the medicines and the life-sustaining requirements that had been taken, Wang Chao took a deep breath. “Even the ammunition was taken away. Somebody is chasing them, so that they don’t have any alternative however to depart the village. Why?”

“I don’t know.”

“Then the place did they flee to? The radius of their motion in every week is simply too massive. The place can we discover them, Boss?”

“Heh.”

After responding, Xing Conglian walked out of the underground ammunition depot with a cigarette in hand. With out saying a phrase, he stepped on the rotten leaves all around the floor and returned to the dock.

On the vast river in entrance of the dock, a superb present was being staged.

Wang Chao hurriedly introduced a picket stake. Within the distance, Kang An was chasing after the 2 poor militants who had simply been overwhelmed by his boss till they spat blood.

Kang An grabbed the facet of the boat within the water, turned over, and punched one in every of them into the water with a left hook. The opposite man swung his oar at him, however Kang An rapidly grabbed onto it and used his power to tug the opposite man into the water as properly. At this level, Kang An had already occupied the excessive floor and had decisively taken an oar and struck twice, leaving the 2 armed militants dizzy and helpless on the water’s floor. Maybe feeling that his earlier actions weren’t fierce sufficient, Kang An then dove into the water and dragged the 2 unconscious militants again as if he had been dragging lifeless canine from the river.

Wang Chao stored observing Xing Conglian’s face and noticed that his boss took a final puff of his cigarette expressionlessly and stamped out the cigarette butt.

In entrance of Xing Conglian had been the 2 militants mendacity on their stomachs. Kang An had woken them up. After they noticed the scene in entrance of them, the 2 militants seemed as if they’d seen a ghost. They crawled again however had been blocked by Kang An from behind.

Xing Conglian requested angrily, “Inform me, the place are the individuals?”

“I… We don’t know… We had been simply passing by!” One of many militants, most likely European or American, replied in stumbling Dana.

“Do you imply to inform me that in such a giant rainforest, you don’t have anything to do however leisurely cross by right here?” Xing Conglian stepped on one of many militants’ shoulders and sneered. “Aren’t you afraid of being hung up by the Gaomeng Tribe to dry?”

“It’s true that we’re simply passing by by probability. Please imagine us!”

“How boring.” Xing Conglian tapped the militant’s shoulder together with his toe. “You got here right here on a whim, so you should have identified that the Gaomeng Tribe had left prematurely. And the explanation you already know it is because both somebody tipped you off otherwise you witnessed all the tribe being hunted down. So, inform me, the place are the individuals of the tribe?”

The 2 militants on the bottom trembled. They checked out one another and exchanged a glance. “We are able to’t say. The opposite celebration is simply too highly effective. In the event that they discover out that we leaked info, we’ll die with out even a grave.”

Xing Conglian took out a gun and put it to one of many militants’ foreheads. “Alright, for those who don’t inform me, you’ll die now.”

When it got here to displaying off and intimidation, Wang Chao solely admired his boss.

“Three days in the past, we met a big group of the Gaomeng individuals. It was already darkish at the moment, so we rushed by the rainforest and located a giant tree to relaxation on. Gunshots rang out within the second half of the evening, and a dense group of Gaomeng individuals ran previous us with a bunch of horrible troopers chasing after them.”

“Sure, these troopers had been so properly outfitted that we dared not communicate up in any respect and simply hid tremblingly within the timber.”

“They had been extremely merciless. Those from the Gaomeng tribe who fell behind had been immediately killed.”

Xing Conglian interrupted the 2. “Okay, simply say it immediately. The place are these troopers from?”

“We noticed an indication of a python entangling a jaguar,” one in every of them answered.

“Zaratul?” Xing Conglian frowned.

The opposite individual’s arms began to tremble. “Are you able to say that identify in a low voice. My coronary heart is pounding simply from listening to it.”

When he heard the identify, even Wang Chao felt his abdomen churn.

The three issues: python, jaguar, and Zaratul—this stuff represented the Dana Rainforest Liberators Alliance. They had been probably the most brutal militants within the Dana Area. Though the identify of this group sounded democratic, it was solely in identify. Up to now ten years, the chief of the arm group and the tyrant of Zaratul had massacred practically 50,000 individuals in Dana. The United Nations had repeatedly tried to intervene, however all their makes an attempt failed. In any case, the state of affairs in Dana was too difficult. Regardless of which forces intervened from the surface world, they might be attacked by all of the primitive tribes, militants, and mercenary organizations right here.

It was exactly as a result of coping with Dana introduced fewer advantages than prices that it had created right this moment’s three-way zone.

Listening to the vivid account of the 2 militants describing a scene of bullets flying and blood splattering as if killing individuals was as straightforward as chopping melons, Kang An’s face instantly turned inexperienced. “Boss, Xiao Wu, and the others should be in nice hazard!”

Xing Conglian ignored Kang An and mentioned, “Wang Chao, convey up a map.”

Wang Chao instantly turned on a pill and introduced up a three-dimensional topographic map of all the Dana Rainforest. “Boss, please look.”

Xing Conglian handed the pill to the 2 militants and mentioned, “The place did you see the Gaomeng tribe three days in the past?”

The 2 militants had been nonetheless mendacity on the bottom. They stared on the huge inexperienced on the pill, studied it for a very long time, and eventually delineated an space northwest of them. “It’s most likely right here.”

Xing Conglian nodded after connecting the pill.

Kang An came visiting anxiously and requested, “Boss, that is the place they had been three days in the past. The place would they be now?”

Xing Conglian narrowed his eyes and stored zooming in on all the space. “The primary query you need to ask is, Zaratul desires to kill individuals, however why haven’t they killed all of them in every week?”

“Why?”

“As a result of they don’t wish to kill everybody.”

“I don’t get it!”

Xing Conglian didn’t communicate anymore. He first marked the placement of the Gaomeng Tribe’s garrison, after which marked the placement the place all the tribe appeared three days in the past. He linked the 2 factors collectively, glanced on the pill, stored zooming in on the image, and moved the place of the map. Lastly, he leaned again barely, pointed to at least one place, and mentioned, “Right here.”

Wang Chao seemed on the map and located that the placement identified by Xing Conglian was an deserted mine positioned within the rainforest.

“Boss, what does Zaratul wish to do?”

“Drive the herd away and enter the designated entice,” Xing Conglian mentioned flatly.
