Chapter 35: Chapter 35: Ominous Discovery
The war is over.
To correct, it is not that this eternal war is over, but that the war between the Elf and the Dwarf in the vast area where Su'er is currently located is over.
After firing a few handsome beams of light at each other in a deterrent, both the Elf and the Dwarf took their few remaining spaceships and left in opposite directions - but from Su'er point of view, the Elf were indeed the first to start fleeing, so if there must be a loser in this war where both sides suffered similar losses, then Su'er thinks it is the Elf.
Everything is the same as Su'er casual guess at the beginning. This desert is indeed ignited by the war between the two sides, in a physical sense.
If you bend down and scoop up a handful of sand at this moment, the sand that used to be cold is now hot, even a little scalding, which means that Su'er needs to find more water sources than in the past. Fortunately, there are still many elf spaceships that fell in this war, so he doesn't need to worry about this problem for the time being.
Su'er planned to live in this area for a while.
Thanks to the two races that had fought fiercely before, the other races in this area had already run away to who knows where. In a sense, this place has become a safe zone - before those dangerous races come back.
Now, in addition to some common beasts, the only ones who will come to this area in a short period of time are those Demonias with powerful strength but little knowledge and intelligence. But even Demonias have an instinctive fear of death, so Su'er is not worried about this.
Even life has become regular. Su'er wanders among the wreckage of the spacecraft of the Dwarf and Elf every day, recording the text information left on the instruments and scrolls that have not been completely destroyed. If there is still a chance, he will put the latest information in the safe place where everyone in the colony temporarily stays when they go on expeditions to other places on the continent.
Because he had tried desperately to imitate Riku to Survive in the past, and thanks to the languages of the Elf, Dwarf and other races passed down from generation to generation by humans, Su'er could still understand these symbols and pictures, so he was not confused.
This relatively peaceful life lasted for several days until Su'er discovered something a little unusual.
——————————————
Su'er discovered traces of other people's activities - let's define them as people for now.
The body of a torn beast had been half covered by the sand blown by the wind. If Su'er had arrived a little later, he might have missed such traces and not realized the danger was coming.
It was not a death caused by a fight between beasts. There were very regular wounds on the body where the softest piece of flesh in the abdomen was removed, and the most obvious thing was the eyes of the dead beast - Su'er did not see any panic or struggle before death in the eyes of the beast.
It was like it was walking quietly here the last moment, and its life was suddenly taken away the next moment, without any chance to react. However, the strange thing was here. The beast was killed in an instant without any resistance. Why did the murderer cruelly tear the beast's body apart? Even the places where the meat was cut were so neat.
There was no way to know.
'There are other people here! '
This was the fact that Su'er realized at the first time, and then came the doubts-those Elf and Dwarf should have taken their companions with them when they evacuated. Even if some were left behind, with the abilities of these two races, they would not stay in such a place for so many days, and they could also rely on their own abilities to return.
However, it was more likely that the creature that killed the beast was a Dwarf or a Elf. The conjecture that it was another race was put aside for the time being. Su'er quickly retreated to the cave where he had lived during this period.
This area was no longer safe, and he had to evacuate to another place.
No matter what creature appeared here, Su'er had never thought of fighting it. The abnormal death state of the beast undoubtedly showed that it was killed by a kind of magic, which might be mental control, or a spell like the finger of death that killed life in an instant. In short, it was something that humans were no match for.
So although he was reluctant to leave this safe area with abundant food and water, he had to leave immediately.
With this thought in mind, Su'er saw such a creature on the way to the west - lying face down on the ground, with long hair scattered around the body, like a dirty blanket, motionless.
It's an elf!
Holding his breath at the first moment, Su'er recognized what the creature lying there like a dead body was.
The shoes had been thrown away long ago, and it was unknown whether the clothes were originally worn like this or were broken like this after being injured. In short, there were only a few layers of thin cloth. To be honest, with the current state of the elf lying here, Su'er felt that there was no difference between wearing the clothes and not wearing them.
Such long legs.
She should have had light blond hair, but perhaps because she was abandoned by her companions and wandered around in this area for several days, she was now covered in dirt, and you could hardly see the original color of her hair. Her body, covered by the scattered hair, was covered with dirt that had turned black, blood and dust.
She seemed to be injured, and it was a serious injury. Su'er keenly discovered that the right rib of this elf was strangely sunken and bulged. There was no doubt that her ribs were broken. Thanks to the cool and intuitive clothes worn by this elf, Su'er simply and clearly judged her condition.
But she was indeed still alive - even if it was very weak, and there was a long time between each breath, but Su'er did find that the back of this elf was slowly rising and falling.
She had to get around immediately.
How curious did she have to be to risk her life to pick up a corpse at this time?
Su'er tugged at his bag full of food and water, and suddenly regretted whether he was too greedy. Even though he had kept most of the food and water he had collected in the cave because he couldn't carry them, the supplies he was carrying seemed to be a little too much.
When Su'er made a little big movement, he could even hear the sound of things colliding from the bag.
