Chapter 262 Catastrophe
Chapter 262 Catastrophe
Seeing everyone standing still, Vivian took out a glowing ribbon from nowhere, held the ribbon in her hands and began to mutter something.
As her spell stopped, the ribbon flew into the sky and began to lengthen. Then the ribbon turned into a whirlwind and enveloped everyone.
After a while, the ribbon automatically flew back to Vivian's hand, and Chen Tao also received the Endless Void prompt.
[It has entered the camouflage state. If no external force intervenes, the camouflage can last for five days. It can be lifted at any time during the duration of the camouflage state.]
After reading the prompt, Chen Tao reached out and touched his face, wanting to see what he had become.
The first facial part he touched was his nose, which turned out to be a pig's nose. Then he quickly touched his ears as if he realized something. Well, yes, they were pig ears.
Chen Tao couldn't help but laugh a little, he turned into a pig-headed man.
Then he looked around and found three more pig-headed men, as well as wolf-headed men, sheep-headed men and deer-headed men.
Because the old golden retriever had explained before he left, these four human race beasts were the most common orcs around Beast God City and were not easy to gang up on.
At this time, a stronger male pig-headed man who was one head taller than Chen Tao ran in front of Chen Tao and said Lu Lingqi's voice: "My lord, princess, you have turned into a pig, haha. But don't be sad, Because I also turned into a pig’s head.”
Chen Tao patted her butt and said, "Don't be so rash and be careful."
What came out of Chen Tao's mouth was the voice of a somewhat dry young man.
Vivian's ribbons are magical, and each person's disguise is matched with a corresponding voice. You can freely choose to use the disguised voice or the original voice before speaking.
Then the group of people entered into a long wait. It was not until dawn that the old golden retriever came back with a large group of people and drove a dozen simple carts.
After repeatedly confirming the camouflage effect of Chen Tao and others, all the people who came to deliver goods were sent away.
Old Golden Retriever brought back thirteen cartloads of supplies this time, and every cart was piled full.
Chen Tao took a cursory look and saw that there were bamboo baskets, dustpans, small stools and tables, as well as a lot of very rough porcelain, such as bowls, plates, tea cups and the like.
Chen Tao was previously worried that there were too many people, but now it seems that it was good that he had called out all the heroes just now, otherwise it might have taken more time.
After all the orcs who had come to deliver the goods had gone away, Old Golden Retriever whispered some precautions, and repeatedly asked him to take off his disguise covertly before taking action, so as not to implicate himself.
Vivian glanced at Chen Tao, who immediately stepped forward and said: "I have already thought about how to avoid involving you, but that may kill many other orcs."
To Chen Tao's surprise, the old golden retriever didn't care at all about killing many of his own kind. He just repeatedly told him not to accidentally kill his family members. In short, he could injure his family members a little, just not fatally. .
Chen Tao was a little confused about the old golden retriever's attitude, but he soon understood that the old golden retriever didn't seem to have much sense of belonging to the Demon Kingdom and the beast here, Human Race.
And speaking of it, he was forced to come to the Demon Kingdom, and the culprit was the Human Race, the beast from the Demon Kingdom.
After everything was prepared, a group of people pulled more than a dozen carts and followed the old golden retriever and his son to a city gate. In order to reach this city gate, they even ignored a closer city gate.
When he got to the place, Chen Tao finally understood the reason. Without him, the soldiers guarding the gate were all wolf-headed men.
A wolf-headed man who looked like a leader saw Old Golden Retriever from a distance and greeted him: "Hey, Old Jin, why did you pull so many goods this time? I'm afraid you are going to get rich."
Old Jin Mao seemed to be very familiar with him: "It would be great if I could get rich. There are too many people in the family, and the fourth daughter-in-law just gave birth to her second child. Taking advantage of the fact that there are so many people in the city now, I am wondering if business will be better. So this time I made a few more things to test the waters.”
Then the two of them joked a little bit more. At the same time, the wolf-headed soldiers began to search every cart, but they didn't take it seriously, and they didn't even check Chen Tao and others at all.
And the one who finally let him go was very happy. Lord Chen was shocked to the point of being speechless because the other party did not ask for a bribe!
After entering the city, because the road became better, the group's walking distance became faster. After walking for about half an hour, the old golden retriever and his son led everyone to a slightly crude compound.
The yard is very large, with more than a dozen adobe houses spread out in various directions. Compared with the various crooked thatched houses that we saw along the way, this is a proper place for a large family.
People in the yard also heard the commotion, and several female wolf-headed men came out. They must be the family members of the old golden retriever and his son.
The sky was still a little gray at this time, and it was obviously still some time before full dawn.
The old golden retriever said that he would wait until the sun rose completely before selling things, and then free up a utility room for Chen Tao and others to rest.
After resting for a while, Lao Jin’s family members brought breakfast. Each person had a bowl of unknown cereal paste and some wild vegetable dough.
After Chen Tao confirmed with his heroes that the food had not been tampered with, he slowly began to eat and drink. The paste had no taste, but the wild vegetable mixed dough was a bit bitter, but it was not to the point of being inedible.
The family members of Old Golden Retriever eat the same food as Chen Tao and others. This shows that although the orcs have been winning the war, the people at the grassroots level do not seem to be doing well.
After Chen Tao put down the bowl, he began to ask Vivian and the three aborigines about the crop harvest, and the answer he got was that it was getting worse year by year.
Then he called Lao Jinmao's eldest son and asked the same question, but the answers he got were getting worse and worse.
The eldest son also said that the big shots thought at first that the farming methods were not mastered well, so they went to the border to capture many human farmers and asked them to teach the orcs to farm.
And it does work, but the output is still getting lower and lower.
After Chen Tao sent away his eldest son, Zhuge Guo quietly came over and asked, "What are you thinking about, my lord?"
Chen Tao: "I think this world is full of steam, which is like a symbol of prosperity, but why are the harvests in the fields getting worse and worse? It's like someone is doing it deliberately, so that the creatures on the earth will be affected by it. Stealing resources and killing each other.”
Zhuge Guo said: "I have heard my parents and master mention that a great catastrophe will occur in the world every once in a while, which will wipe out most of the creatures in the world. Then on the remains of the previous generations of creatures, new ones will be created. Creatures will also be born, and then develop new civilizations, and the final outcome will still be to die in a catastrophe, and so on. This situation now may be the fate of all creatures in this world."
