Chapter 444: 306. The Fire Pit in the Snowy Mountain and the Girl by the Fire Pit (Asking for Monthly Tickets)
Qing Chen walked through the long corridor and picked up the most convenient firearm in the room, the Ash-012, with a magazine holding 9 bullets of 5.6 mm caliber.
After he was ready, he didn’t rush out the door but quietly waited for the return.
In each of his hands, he held a new Genetic Potion, one was FDE-005, and the other was FDE-004.
Originally, Qing Chen thought that in the box Li Changqing gave him, there were only the unused 002 and 001 left, but he didn’t expect this woman to be so generous. Saying she would give a set, she included even those Qing Chen would not need.
not completely darkened, and the white expanse of snow seemed to glow in the night.
As the vehicle jostled, the wild folks inside had their necklaces of knucklebones strung with hemp rope clanging against each other, making clattering sounds.
In total, there were 32 pickup trucks. The cargo beds of the first twenty-nine were filled with game and pelts, among which was a huge wild buffalo carcass.
The buffalo’s horns had dark red patterns, and there was a dab of Red at the brow, resembling a closed third eye.
That was the prey captured by a Fire Pit God’s Child during his coming-of-age ritual, hunted from a Taboo Land.
Following those twenty-nine vehicles were three more loaded with diesel, as well as various modern technological items; these were the spoils from their raid on a Federal Production Base.
Sitting atop that pile of assorted items was a girl with wheat-colored skin, wrapped in a thick leather coat, staring blankly at the vast snow mountain in the distance.
At that moment, moonlight reflected down from Earth’s atmosphere, shining on that solitary snow mountain.
The mountain seemed like it had a light switched on, which never went out.
The peak of the snow mountain, hidden in the clouds, made one very curious about what the summit looked like.
Inside the vehicle, a teenager around eighteen or nineteen looked back and shouted, “Yiyi, do you see it? That is our Holy Mountain. It is said that God was born there. That day, in the sky above, there was a giant hand surrounded by light, placing a baby on the summit of the snow mountain, and then God grew up among the mountains.”
The speaker was the God’s Child who had just completed his coming-of-age ritual, the son of one of the elders.
But the girl sitting in the cargo bed didn’t respond. To her, such legends seemed absurd. Wouldn’t a baby left on top of a snow mountain just freeze to death?
And what would a baby eat to grow up on top of a snow mountain? Snow?
Xiao Yiyi did not respond to the God’s Child, as if she heard nothing.
She looked at the snow mountain, lost in thought, thinking that the snow was as beautiful as that boy’s skin.
The point of the snow mountain hidden in the clouds was as mysterious as that boy.
Seeing Xiao Yi ignoring him, the God’s Child scratched his head and said, “Why don’t you come inside the vehicle? There’s still an empty seat here.”
Xiao Yiyi replied, “No need, thank you.”
team soaring up, forming a persistent mist above the valley.
Xiao Yiyi curiously looked at the valley, thinking it was incredibly vast, and that if climate weren’t a factor, growing several thousand mu of farmland here probably wouldn’t be an issue.
The valley was warm and humid, more than ten degrees warmer than the outside temperature.
