Chapter 564: The Corpse Buried Underground
"My lord, what orders do you have?" Zhou Xiaobo said respectfully to Taylor Tracy, the captain of the promise mercenary team.
Although Zhou Xiaobo is stronger than everyone in the promise mercenary team at this time, he cannot show it. In the eyes of others, he is just an ordinary person, not even a professional. There is no comparison at all, so lowering the posture is in line with everyone's perception.
"Are you the lucky one who found Garrick's head?" Taylor Tracy glanced at Zhou Xiaobo lightly, and found that the latter looked confused, and couldn't help feeling a little funny at his previous thoughts. He thought this What's so special about the little guy? From the looks of it now, he was just lucky to find Garrick's head in the grass.
"Yes, my lord! I am only luckier!"
"Well, we're going to walk around, and we just need a guide, so how about you showing us the way, 10 copper coins a day?" Taylor Treacy said as if he didn't care.
"This..." Zhou Xiaobo knew that he had no reason to refuse at this time, but he really didn't want to mess with the other party.
What these mercenaries want to do, Zhou Xiaobo can also guess, nothing more than to go to the lair of those Defias thugs to see if it is profitable.
But Zhou Xiaobo didn't care about the resources and money. What he needed was to quickly improve his own strength, and the only way to do this was to go out and kill monsters, so there was no possibility of cooperation between the two parties.
But if he really wanted to refuse, Zhou Xiaobo was worried that the other party would be suspicious.
"Perhaps, this guy has already seen what's wrong!" Thinking this way, Zhou Xiaobo no longer hesitated, and directly nodded in agreement.
For him, no matter what the promised mercenary team has, planning, it is useless in the face of absolute strength.
"Very good! Then get ready and set off later!" Seeing that Zhou Xiaobo agreed, Taylor Treacy was also secretly relieved. He really felt that something was wrong with Zhou Xiaobo. Why didn't he find Garrick's head? Others, but Zhou Xiaobo, luck and so on are all excuses, his intuition told himself that Zhou Xiaobo was deliberately concealing something, and the guards didn't notice it because they got Garrick's head and were taken by surprise. The reversal dazzled his mind, but Taylor Treacy, the captain of the Promise Mercenary Squad who had been watching coldly, keenly discovered this key point.
A group of people set off quickly. Taylor Tracy didn't seem to have any purpose. He just asked Zhou Xiaobo to take him around, not far away from Millie's Vineyard, and wandered around nearby. Everywhere he went, he They will carefully ask about the situation around Zhou Xiaobo and the daily activities of the farmers.
In the end, when Zhou Xiaobo was about to get impatient, Taylor Treacy suddenly chose a direction, waved his hand, and walked cautiously towards that direction with several members of the Promised Mercenary Squad, and of course followed Zhou Xiaobo was no exception, and also obediently followed under the gaze of Taylor Tracy.
This direction is rarely visited by nearby farmers, because it is close to the river, and it is also a Gulf Stream area, in which there is a large area of relatively low-lying alluvial zone, which can also be said to be a high-lying river bed, where water will flow from time to time. It will only emerge during the dry season, so it is completely unsuitable for planting crops, let alone the grapes of Millie's Vineyard. No livestock is even willing to come here, because they will fall into it if they are not careful.
However, according to Tyler Tracy's multi-analysis, the lairs of those Defias thieves are in this area, and they have not been discovered because of their inaccessibility.
For his keen "sense of smell", Zhou Xiaobo couldn't help but take a high look.
After a group of people entered the riverbed that looked like a swamp area, they soon found traces of human activities.
At this time, most of the members of the promise mercenary team became more cautious, only Zhou Xiaobo still looked carefree, no different from an ignorant ordinary farm boy,
This also dispelled Taylor Tracy's suspicion.
It didn't take long before everyone came to a messy living area, in which there were temporary shacks built with thatch, branches, etc., and a lot of sundries.
Seeing this, several members of the promise mercenary team rushed out one after another, rummaged through various shacks, and searched for the previous things.
But Zhou Xiaobo didn't make any moves, just stood on the periphery so "stupidly", without any intention of getting involved.
Now, Taylor Treacy was finally completely relieved and stopped paying attention to Zhou Xiaobo. After scanning for a week, he found that there was no danger, so he rushed out.
"Huh!"
When Zhou Xiaobo was doing nothing, he suddenly sensed some problems in the nearby underground through his spiritual attributes.
After careful inspection, Zhou Xiaobo found that there was a dead body buried there.
"This... Could it be that the Defias thugs killed it before?" Zhou Xiaobo's heart skipped a beat, but he chose to devour it without hesitation.
The result also made him very satisfied. Although the corpse was buried deep in the ground, it did not cause any trouble to the swallowing body. It was smoothly swallowed by Zhou Xiaobo and appeared in his swallowing space.
"Since there is a corpse here, are there other places too?" Thinking of this, Zhou Xiaobo couldn't help feeling a little hot in his heart.
He wasn't just thinking about the innocent civilians killed by Defias thugs nearby, but the battlefield, even... the cemetery!
According to some information that Zhou Xiaobo learned briefly from Anlibo, there have been many wars in this world. At the beginning, it could be said that there were corpses all over the place. Because of the concern about the epidemic, many corpses were buried on the spot. After the terrible incident, incineration began to be implemented from top to bottom, but many people are still accustomed to burying the bodies of their dead relatives instead of burning them.
In this way, Zhou Xiaobo was given room to manipulate. He felt that the corpses left over from the war could be devoured to strengthen himself and improve his strength, to fight against foreign forces and even foreign forces, and to protect himself and his relatives and friends.
As for the corpses in the cemetery, Zhou Xiaobo would not let them go easily.
Anyway, this is another world, Zhou Xiaobo devoured those corpses without too much psychological burden. From the current point of view, it doesn't matter if he wants strength or not. If he wants to protect himself, and then protect the people around him, the only way is to improve his own strength as much as possible, so Zhou Xiaobo will not hesitate to sacrifice those corpses.
