Chronicles of Primordial Wars

This chapter is free. A gift from the festival belongs to the outside world.

————————————————————————————————————

On the other side of the ocean, at the intersection of the desert and the sea.

Since Shao Xuan disappeared on the coast, the sapphire took a team to the beach every day to see if Shao Xuan had returned.

That's bitter for the nearest city in Heavenly Wheel. On several occasions, the patrols encountered the beetles and flew away every time they saw the black wave. We've been together for a long time. Everyone in Tianrong knows that bugs eat meat. Don't they stay and wait to be eaten? How many bugs have you not seen?

As the day passes, the sapphire also feels Shao Xuan getting farther and farther away from this side. Because of the frequency of insect surges, few people have come to the coast, and even the desert beasts have rarely appeared, avoiding these black waves.

Food is scarce and the sea cannot go. Sapphires can only take the army of beetles to other places temporarily. When Shao Xuan is detected, he comes here to greet him.

The desert has been swept away by the fighting, starting with White Rock City, followed by other cities. In order to avoid the fate of the slaughtered slaves, they fled elsewhere. The desert was so big that the slave owners were busy at war and did not spend much effort to recover those slaves. For the slave owners, those slaves are too cheap to be worth a lot of manpower.

The big blue beetles are feeding everywhere with the beetle army, and more and more beetles are joining the team. At some point, there are fewer beetles living in the circle, their recipes are changing, and so are these beetles.

The battlefield after the battle is over is a great place. They continue to serve as desert scavengers, cleaning up the remnants of the battlefield, leaving only a skeleton and other unusable equipment, etc.

Most of them used to live in the Beast Circle, serving as cleaners of the Beast Circle, and now they serve as cleaners of the entire desert.

As a beetle that has been pushing balls since childhood, sapphire has changed its recipe, even now, but the habit remains that after each sweep of the battlefield, it collects something from the battlefield, wraps it into a big ball, and pushes it around. Run around with the Beetle Army as you push the ball. It's outside the sand all the time except to drill underground while sleeping.

Had it not been for a lot of people running off with their legs when they saw this beetle, they would have seen this group of insects after sweeping the battlefield, and the leading blue beetle was pushing a big ball and playing on the sand. Standing upside down behind the blue beetle that pushed the ball with two long legs, the large black beetle followed closely.

A group of slaves fleeing the city as a result of the fighting between the slave owners, marched in formation, walking in the desert with only a few pieces of rotten cloth, covered with various stains and wounds.

Half of them are the lowest slaves in the city and have not yet recognized their Lord, so they have not gained power from their slave owners, so that the chances of traveller-like slaves surviving in the desert are almost nil. Good thing that half of the former slaves in the ranks are not necessarily strong, but at least alleviate their predicament and capture some small desert beasts to feed themselves.

There is a certain degree of kinship between these slaves, generations of slaves, familiar to each other and quite united, without which it is impossible to escape collectively.

From the moment they fled the city, they could never go back, and there was still a chance out there, but if they did, they would surely be killed by the slave masters. They don't want to be ashes on the battlefield, they don't want to be killed by slave masters, they just want to survive.

There are men and women, elderly people and children in the team. Although they are not sick and weak, they will also become weak after a long time in the desert.

They settled in a place that had been abandoned for a long time, possibly a small camp built by some slave owner, with no roof and only broken walls. It is enough for those who have fled.

Many slaves may have fled here before them, but at the end of the day, the slaves, for whatever reason, turned into a white bone.

To their surprise, there was also a small fountain, which used to be an oasis, and the underground fountain was shrunk and the water was cloudy and abandoned.

Even cloudy water is a treasure for these fleeing slaves, and it keeps them alive.

During the first time they arrived here, they were scared every day, scared to see the army of their slave masters, but gradually, they let go of their fears, except for the occasional passing of one or two fierce desert beasts from the vicinity.

One day the sun will be in the air, and the earth will be burned by a blazing sun.

The people of the abandoned land rested against the wall and closed their eyes in the shadows.

All of a sudden, a man with a stone spear all black opened his eyes and jumped on the broken wall, looking in one direction.

Others, too, get up vigilant and pick up all kinds of rough tools and look in that direction.

In the distance, an army of slave owners approached, and the sand and dust flowing from the running of the cyclists, although still far apart, the refugees had already smelled blood.

Slaver's army passed by, but all fleeing slaves, no matter which city they were in, were slaughtered.

The man standing on the broken wall looked sharply at the other side, his slender body tightened, holding the spear's back, his meridian suddenly beating. He looked like a wolf in despair but still unwilling to retreat.

Tight on his leg, he bowed his head and his youngest son, less than five years old, was holding his leg with panic in his eyes.

“Don't be afraid, go back.” The man said.

A woman came and picked up the child and gathered with the others.

When you meet the slaver's army, you have to flee. After the young man's ability to stay broke, the others packed their things and were ready to leave.

Slave owners are getting closer, they also saw signs of slave activity in the abandoned land, the leader shouted, the team accelerated forward, all the sinful slaves encountered outside, killing without forgiveness!

The rumbling thunder rolled in, and the air seemed to be filled with killing and bravery.

The roar was getting closer and closer, while on the other hand, those who had left the abandoned land had not run far, and their speed was too slow compared to the army of the slave owners.

The man standing on the broken wall hoarse, intending to greet the massacrers in the desert, but soon he found that the team rushing this way suddenly slowed down as if stepping on a brake. In the team, the person running behind him could not stop, directly hitting the person in front, for no reason.

The team of slave masters stopped, did not move forward, stood on the abandoned ground broken wall, people looked at each other, saw the confusion in each other's eyes, did not understand what had happened.

But when they discovered the sight of the cyclists and looked behind them, they saw a scene that they would never forget.

There was a pointed dune in the air, and on top of the dune, a bug-like thing, was pushing a big ball towards the top of the hill.

They've been here for days, and they've never seen anything like it, and it's like the sand dune suddenly appearing in the middle of the sky, shocking them like miracles.

These slaves fleeing here don't know exactly what that pushball is, but the slave owner's team knows very well, and in the desert, if you encounter those black bug tides, you have two choices: first, stay and die; second, run!

The leader chose the second one, and they cared more about their lives than the few ant runaways. Pulled the rope so hard that the leader of the team took control of the cycling beast and turned away.

The fierce team, counting interest time, turned around and ran away.

Not far from the abandoned land, the escapees looked at the miracles in the air, and an elderly man knelt down excitedly, and others knelt. They think it was the miracle that saved them. But what did the miracle show? Sand dunes and pushballs.

After that, they did not see the slave masters again.

After a while, the people who stayed in the abandoned land really saw the black beetle army that appeared like a wave. Nothing is more pronounced than the blue beetle that is pushing the ball.

When they see such a tide, the abandoned land people are ashamed. Faced with the team of slave owners, they can still fight hard, but for such a tide, they really don't know what to do.

How? Doesn't seem like a way to escape, does it? Already surrounded by dense numbness!

Instead, an elderly man in the abandoned land was so excited to see the big blue beetle pushing the ball, picking up a beast his son had just caught, heading straight for the bug tide, and the others didn't respond at all, they couldn't hold it.

Everyone else was stunned when they saw him dragging food to the bug tide like a suicide.

Sapphire came here once. Why were there so few beasts in this abandoned land before? Because the bug tide swept over here once. Where the bug tide sweeps, there will be no other vicious beasts wandering in the short term. That is also the main reason why these refugees were able to spend those days peacefully in abandoned areas.

The sapphire saw a man coming to his side, thinking of pulling a claw away, but the other party knelt directly more than ten meters away, kneeling to move towards it, and threw the small beast in his hand towards it.

Sapphires don't move and other beetles don't move easily, even if they want to eat that piece of meat.

Slowly walked over, looked at the beast thrown on the ground, picked the sapphire claws, threw the meat at his own little brother, this meat is not yet visible.

The beast thrown into the bug heap was instantly submerged by the gushing tide, and the blood of those who could see the abandoned land was like frozen, pulled out cold, such as a fallen ice cave.

After throwing away the beast, the sapphire looked at the person kneeling in front of him, um, not aggressive, not killer, then carefully distinguished, the sapphire came to a conclusion - not good!

At this time, the sapphire noticed that there seemed to be another war in the distance, and it couldn't take care of the people here. It greeted the other beetles and rushed over to the battlefield, without even bringing the rolling ball. If it slows down, the food left behind after the war will be robbed by other animals!

The bug tide swept away, and not long after, there was only a deserted sand and a bone that could not be left without a little meat filament. That's the beast that was just thrown away.

No, it was left with a much taller ball, pushed by that big blue beetle.

Once the abandoned land had ascertained that the bug tide had left, the seemingly frozen blood had melted away, and the young man ran over and lifted the elderly, who were still kneeling on the ground.

And when they got up and looked at that big ball, they found a lot of good things in it!

Sword Axe Spear, Veterinary Armor Leather Coat, and some other bones, branches, large pieces of cloth, etc.

The elderly saw and suddenly burst into tears and knelt again. He thought it was a gift from that big blue beetle.

They get better weapons from this ball, fur armor, clothing, etc., to protect themselves, and branches, bones, cloth, etc., to build the top of the windshield.

The elderly used a stone knife to carve a painting on the highest wall in the abandoned land where they settled, and to worship every day.

Picture, the beetle that has been standing upside down, above the beetle is a ball.
