Chapter 567: Scavenger and Conflict

It was a strange creature that pulled the carriage. Its name was also Horse, but it was much larger and ran very quickly.

The carriage was made of a metal frame. It was a modern carriage with metal tires. More than half of it was filled with supplies. It was very stable.

Actually, there were steam rail cars in this world. It was said that the celestial beings had sent people to build them. However, Lin Yan and Guo Xiaomi were too big a target, so they could only use the carriage.

The journey was rather long.

Lin Yan sat in the carriage with Guo Xiaomi opposite him.

“You don’t have to keep staring at me.”

“Oh.”

Guo Xiaomi turned her head away.

But not long after, she secretly turned her head and looked at Lin Yan.

Lin Yan:”…”

After all, she was a little girl. Moreover, she had been kept at home for a long time and had not interacted with anyone. It was understandable that her personality was a little different from ordinary people.

Guo Xiaomi was Guo Rong’s child. Ever since she was born, there was no deformity on her body. It was as if she had a natural ability to resist spiritual corruption.

Guo Rong did not abandon Guo Xiaomi, but he could not let her be exposed.

She could only stay at home and not interact with anyone except her father.

In this way, it was already very good that Guo Xiaomi could develop a temper that was not considered too strange.

After walking for a while.

“Phew.”

Suddenly, the carriage stopped.

“My lord.”

Guo Rong’s voice was a little heavy.

Lin Yan lifted the curtain.

“Sir, there’s something wrong ahead.”

This was the wilderness. The road was a flat road that many people walked on.

Lin Yan alighted from the carriage. In front of him was a small forest. The flat road passed through the forest, looking ordinary.

“What’s wrong?”

“It smells too bad,” Guo Rong said. “It smells so bad. There must be an invisible poison barrier in front. It will be dangerous if we go in.”

‘Smell?’

Lin Yan sniffed but didn’t smell anything.

On the contrary, the spiritual pollution seemed to be getting heavier.

However, Guo Rong would not lie about such things.

Then it was possible that Guo Rong and the others had evolved to be able to smell spiritual pollution because they had lived in an environment with spiritual pollution for a long time?

This kind of spiritual contamination was very likely not uniform. There would be areas with increased concentration in some places.

“When will they disperse?”

“Hard to say. Could be hours, could be a month or two.”

“What about a detour?”

Guo Rong’s expression became even more awkward. “This is the only way to the capital. If we go around it, we will definitely have to pass through the towns. Someone will check. I’m afraid…”

He was not worried that Lin Yan would be discovered, but that Guo Xiaomi would.

Lin Yan could have used the Black Tortoise Divine Armor to cover them. It didn’t matter if they went to the town or moved forward directly.

However, he did not want to expose the Black Tortoise Divine Armor.

“Is there any other way?”

“A Scavenger can clear a path. However, the price is too expensive for me to afford.”

“Scavenger?”

“A special Earth Worm can gnaw on invisible poisonous barriers and carve out a path through them.

“However, it usually lives deep underground and rarely emerges, so it’s extremely rare and expensive.”

Lin Yan raised his eyebrows slightly. “What does the Scavenger look like?”

“I’ve only seen pictures of it. 1 can’t describe it. It’s a little like an enlarged version of a beetle. Its mouthpart is very ferocious and the size of a calf.” fr(e)enovelkiss

Guo Rong briefly described the Scavenger’s appearance.

“I’ve seen this kind of bug before.”

Lin Yan recalled that when he came out of the forest, he had encountered many strange and huge creatures. Among them was this huge beetle. Moreover, it was not the size of a calf, but the size of a truck.

Perhaps it was because the spiritual pollution in that forest was very strong, so they seemed to be quite common and there were quite a number of them.

However, they did come up from the ground to attack.

Lin Yan got off the carriage and patted Guo Rong’s shoulder. He said meaningfully, “Wait for me here.”

With that, he leaped out and entered the small forest in front of him. His figure disappeared into the forest.

Guo Rong was still in a daze even after Lin Yan left.

Then, he hurried back to grab the carriage. “Xiaomi, let’s run!”

“Dad, why are we running?”

“When that fiend comes back, we’ll be finished!”

“But 1 don’t think Brother Lin Yan is a bad person.”

“Whether he’s a bad person or not, run first! He’s too powerful! I’m not his match. If we go to the capital and he sells you off, we’ll be finished!”

“Dad, 1 don’t think Brother Lin Yan is such a person… Besides, Dad, are you sure we can escape?”

Guo Rong froze.

Thinking back to Lin Yan’s meaningful tone, could it be that he was in the forest now, waiting for them to escape and catch them red-handed?!

For a moment, he was in a dilemma.

On the other side, after Lin Yan entered the forest, he used the Black Tortoise Divine Armor to conceal himself.

However, he did not go underground immediately.

Instead, he hid and observed in secret.

He wasn’t bored enough to test Guo Rong.

Instead, he wanted to use this opportunity to let Guo Rong go.

Previously, he did not know much about this world. Therefore, he needed Guo Rong to follow him. The guy pointed the way and introduced him to the local customs and things worth taking note of.

Over the past few days, Lin Yan had a rough understanding of the situation and the general location of the capital.

It was useful to bring Guo Rong and his daughter along, but it was a little inefficient. After all, Lin Yan could move much faster on his own.

Hence, he wanted to use this opportunity to let Guo Rong go.

However, after observing for a while, he realized that Guo Rong had not left.

“He seems to have misunderstood…”

Since he wasn’t leaving, Lin Yan didn’t have to chase him away. With the local guide leading him, he could avoid a lot of trouble.

Thus, he took the Black Tortoise Divine Armor and traveled underground, going deep into the ground.

The Scavengers rarely appeared on the ground, but there should be a lot of them underground.

Lin Yan only spent a little effort to find one. He grabbed the gap in its carapace and pulled it up!

Actually, he could also use White Tiger Dominating the World to transform it into a tiger servant.

However, Zhao Pan had previously emphasized to him that the technique of playing with one’s spirituality was a demonic technique that was hated by everyone in the entire starry sky. Once it was discovered, one would become a street rat and it would be difficult to find a place to live in the entire starry sky.

Therefore, Lin Yan would not use it unless it was a matter of life and death.

The Scavenger naturally kept struggling and shaking its body. Its limbs kept kicking Lin Yan’s body.

However, they were all blocked by the Black Tortoise Divine Armor and the Scavenger was dragged to the ground by Lin Yan.

Squeak,squeak, squeak!

The carapace trembled and let out an anxious and terrified sound.

However, Lin Yan grabbed the gap in the carapace and pulled the Scavenger out.

“Huh? Someone else?”

Outside the forest, Guo Rong’s carriage seemed to be confronting a group of merchants!

As for Guo Xiaomi, she was not in the carriage at the moment. Instead, she was protected behind Guo Rong with a nervous expression..
