victims

Delhi was the first to get restless.

He looked around at the surrounding environment. When he saw the soldiers standing guard, he looked nervous and swallowed his saliva from time to time, showing his uneasiness.

“This place is too shabby. Is their king living in such a place?” Delhi’s words attracted everyone’s attention and eased the tense atmosphere.

Everyone looked calm on the surface, but they were equally nervous.

This time, they were not going to come into contact with ordinary humans but with intelligent creatures of other races that were completely different from humans!

This could be a big step for human civilization!

They were curious to know if there had been any real cases of human contact with foreign species before them. However, as far as they knew, there was no mention of the outcome between humans and other races.

Myths and legends didn’t count.

No clear evidence was left behind, so it was hard to tell whether it was real or fake.

Of course, they had never thought of becoming the pioneers of human contact with foreign species.

If they could, they would rather not have such an opportunity.

Suncis looked around carefully as if he was trying to remember every street, every house, and even every decoration. This was an instinctive reaction of an adventurer.

No equipment could be fully trusted in an unfamiliar wilderness, especially in an unknown place full of danger.

Compasses, mobile phones, satellite phones, and so on could all have problems.

If he wanted to survive in the unexplored wildland, the only person he could truly believe in was himself.

“It’s simple here. But you’ve forgotten one thing. This isn’t their real settlement. It’s just something like a military camp or a fortress,” Murakami Ichiro said thoughtfully.

His voice was very low, and he spoke very slowly. He had to think over every sentence repeatedly.

“Although this isn’t their settlement, it

shouldn’t just be a military camp. I noticed

that there were farms and farms nearby when I came here. They’re cultivating farmland nearby, so they have plans to be stationed there for a long time.”

“But from what we’ve seen on the way, there shouldn’t be any civilians here. They should all be soldiers of the Great Xu nation.”

“The Great Xu nation is far from what we see so far. As for what the real country is like, we still can’t make a conclusion.”

“I agree with Mr. Murakami,” Aphra agreed, “What we see now is just the tip of the iceberg. If we make a conclusion based on the tip of the iceberg, the result will be very different from reality.”

Aphra became more alert.

Her voice became low, and her beautiful

sapphire-like eyes looked around. Her beautiful face was full of solemnity and caution as she carefully warned, “We have to be careful. We can’t anger them.”

Everyone nodded slightly to show their

understanding.

They were all adults, not teenagers. No one

was a fool.

Obviously, the enemy was stronger than them, so who would risk their lives?

“Bring the prisoners.’

“I

While they were talking, the guard who had

entered the room to report had already come

out.

He stood in front of the door and conveyed

the king’s order.

No one spoke anymore, and under the escort of the four guards, they walked in the direction of the living room.

He stepped up the steps, passed through the

corridor, and came to the front of the hall.

The decorations in the hall were simple and

elegant.

The wooden floor was laid with a layer of

white beast fur, covering the entire room. It was hard to imagine how mighty and majestic this beast was when it was alive.

It was as if they were stepping on clouds, soft and light.

They could even feel the warm air coming from its snow-white fur as if it was still alive.

This fur came from a ferocious beast called

the cloud beast.

The cloud beast’s entire body was as white as

the clouds. It had no limbs and looked like a huge round ball but also like a white cloud. The smallest one was four to five meters in size, and the largest one could grow up to a hundred meters.

They would have to pay a heavy price if they

looked down on cloud beasts because of their cute appearance.

The cloud beast did not have four limbs and

usually floated in the air. It relied on a small thing that looked like a dolphin’s tail to control its direction, and its movements were quite comical. However, seemingly petite and cute, their mouth could tear open bodies in a breath!

Not to mention a bull. Even if ten elephants came, the cloud beast could swallow them all

in an instant.

They usually relied on their harmless appearance to lure other fierce beasts into a

trap and then swallow them in one bite!

Besides the carpet, there was only a rectangular table directly opposite the door.

At this moment, there was a small stove on the table. On the stove was a steaming metal pot surrounded by dried meat, fruit, fish, and

so on.

Not far away, there was a barbeque rack that was currently roasting meat.

The charcoal fire burned on the delicious and juicy meat, and the wonderful sound of oil frying could be heard. Bursts of smoke came from the barbecue grill, making everyone swallow their saliva.

Ever since they had been caught, they had not

eaten anything. At most, they had only drunk

a few sips of water.

At this moment, seeing this sumptuous food

and smelling the waves of meat fragrance, everyone suddenly felt like their stomachs were making noises.

However, they couldn’t care less about their

stomachs. They all turned their gazes to the man sitting behind the long table, and all of them revealed looks of surprise. Yang Xu’s appearance was quite different

from what they had guessed.

He’s so handsome and mighty. Aphra peeked at Yang Xu and saw his handsome face, muscular body, and beautiful eyes. Her nervousness was somewhat

relieved.

From his appearance, Yang Xu was still a little

gentle and elegant. He was not as rough and ugly as she had imagined. Yang Xu’s handsome appearance and the strong contrast with what she had expected

left a strong impression in Aphra’s heart. “He is indeed a terrifying fellow.” When Mr. Suncis and his wife saw Yang Xu,

their bodies tensed up, and their hair stood on

end.

They only felt as if they had come to the edge of a collapsing cliff and could fall into the

endless abyss and shatter into pieces at any time.

The terrifying pressure was like a tangible

tide, surging in waves, making their chests feel heavy and breathless.

They had experienced this terrifying feeling many times. Once, they encountered a giant python in the Amazon, and once, a group of lions in Africa besieged them. They were no strangers to this feeling. It was the tension

and fear of encountering a life-and-death crisis. This man was very scary!

It was scarier than any beast they had ever

encountered!

The couple looked at each other, eyes full of solemness and nervousness.

Ichiro Murakami’s eyes did not stop on Yang

Xu but on his surroundings. The beautiful queen phoenix was standing on the table. It was elegantly combing its

feathers with its beak, not even looking at

them. There were more than a dozen beautiful women around him.

They were obviously from different races.

They served the king with all their heart and soul, looking at the king with respect and admiration. Their fanatical eyes made Ichiro Murakami think of many things.

It was the gaze of a devout believer looking at

their god. They regarded their king as a god!

A king who was loved by his subjects and was very close to them!

Otherwise, the eyes of his subjects would not be so passionate and bold.

Yuan Xing Guo’s eyes were not on Yang Xu but on the fox beauty who was barbecuing and cooking.

To be precise, he was looking at their cooking

skills.

The craftsmanship was too bad! Yuan Xing Guo shook his head slightly.

This was simply a waste of ingredients.

After a brief moment of shock, Delhi’s nervous mood immediately dissipated. So this was the king of the foreign race?
