Miss Witch doesn't want to be a diva

The journey was quite boring. The wild grass was everywhere and no animals were seen along the way. Only a few rabbits with fur similar to the color of the wild grass ran by, but they quickly hid in the earth holes and disappeared.

"Those rabbits are very sensitive and hard to catch. Besides, the rabbits here are very sparsely distributed and have little meat. It is not cost-effective to catch them." Sura talked about the grassland when he was bored on the road.

"There is little food here, so few people live here. Only a few of us small settlements will stay here."

The three continued to walk. As time approached noon, without the shade of the jungle, the sun was baking very hot. Walking on the grass, the body was wrapped in the hot air and sweat flowed.

"Huhu--" Sura stopped a little tiredly, indicating that he wanted to rest for a while.

"Aren't you and your friend tired?" She saw that Tilan didn't sweat much.

"I'm fine. Maybe I'm lighter and walk less." People with light bodies do save a lot of energy when running long distances.

Orlesi on the other side was also a little tired at this time, and her steps slowed down a lot. Seeing Tilan stop, she also sat on the ground and stopped moving.

"Tilan, I'm tired."

"I know, let's take a rest." Tilan thought for a while, took out the cup of water from the small basket on her back, and slowly gathered the water vapor around her. However, it was dry here, so the speed was much slower than in the jungle.

Watching Tilan gradually produce clean water, Sura looked at her with envy.

"With your ability, you will be welcomed in many settlements. There are too few places to drink water in the wild. If you bring water, it will be too heavy and tiring."

"Don't other people have this ability?"

"I haven't heard of it. Generally, extraordinary people only major in a few important skills, especially in combat, and rarely in life."

"By the way, you should be able to read." Sura remembered something.

"Well, I do know how to read."

Speaking of which, the word "literate" has almost no use in modern society, so much so that Tilan was slightly stunned after hearing it.

"That's great. The kids in the settlement are fighting every day, not learning anything, and no one is teaching them. It's a headache for the moose boss. It would be great if you could teach them."

"How many people live in your settlement?" Hearing this, Tilan finally became curious.

"There are 26 adults and children in total, which is quite a lot. At the beginning, there were only four of us, the moose boss and me."

"But with so many people, eating is also a problem, so I came out this time to try my luck."

"Can you bring the prey back by yourself?" Tilan saw that she was a little tired just by hurrying.

"Of course I can, I am a high-level human who can use tools, of course I can do it, with four rollers and wooden bars, I can easily drag it."

"You don't know the unique ability of our iron core species, that is, to convert other substances into iron. This ability can occasionally be used on the body to resist damage."

"Very powerful." No wonder she said she was very popular. This ability is a rare productivity in this relatively backward world without industry.

"Hehe, but this ability is extinguished with His Majesty Hephaestus, so it is not so strong, otherwise we can build a steel world with our bare hands." Sura was so proud when she heard Tilan's praise, as if she had received great affirmation.

"No more talking, let's go, let's go, we have to hurry back, I'm hungry." After a short rest, Sura stood up. She was really in good physical condition and recovered a lot of endurance in a few minutes.

So the three of them continued on their way. As noon passed, the three of them walked and stopped, and slowly saw the reddish-brown mountains on the grassland in the distance, which were similar in color to clay.

Looking at the simple clock in the bag, Sura told Tilan that it was already past three in the afternoon, and they would be able to reach the settlement in the evening and have dinner with everyone.

"The moose boss enclosed a piece of land in the valley and planted some crops with safe soil dug from the ground. We used to live on this, but now there are more people and it's not enough to eat."

"Safe soil?"

"Well, most of the soil on the surface is polluted. Although plants can grow, these plants have accumulated a lot of toxins and pollution. People will get strange diseases if they eat too much. You can see that the grass on the ground here is a mixture of yellow and green, and there are very few clean and tender colors."

"It's the same with animals. The internal organs are basically inedible. You can only eat some meat, but not too much."

"It is said that some powerful races occupy land with little pollution. The food and bread produced there are very precious passages, and they can be exchanged for things in various places."

"It's really not easy." The girl couldn't help but sigh, which also reminded her of the past emerald skirt. At that time, many places in the north had the same experience. Fortunately, the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region is not a closed place. The grain production in various places in the Federation is very sufficient, and there are various artificial plantations to supplement fruits and vegetables.

The three of them continued to move forward. As they approached, Tilan could see the wisps of green smoke rising from behind the rock, and there was a slight smell of burning in the air.

Did they start to cook? She thought of the movies and TV shows where people in the old days often cooked with firewood in the evening, which was very warm.

"Oh no, it's on fire!" Sura suddenly shouted.

"With so much smoke, don't they put out the fire? Yacao, no, something might have happened." Sura thought of something, threw down the bag on his back, and quickly rushed to the rock, without even having time to explain anything to Tilan.

"I'm going to help. If you can keep up, come quickly. If you can help, I'll let Boss Moose prepare a sumptuous meal for you!" She said as she ran, waving the gun in her hand in the air.

Seeing this, Tilan also wanted to go up and help, but Orlesi couldn't run fast at this time, and she couldn't leave her behind.

She could only bear the pain and use her magic power a little. She held Orlesi's hand and then used the low-level secret technique recorded by the Qingluan faction. This kind of spell for traveling quickly was originally a technique used by outer disciples when they went on a long journey in the Third Era. Now there are all kinds of airplanes and hovercrafts, and almost no one uses them.

With the blessing of the spell, the weight of the two people became much lighter, and then their steps became faster and they ran much faster. Holding Orlesi's hand, Tilan also hurried to catch up and caught up with Sura's figure in the distance.

As the three people continued to approach, the shouting and fighting sounds behind the rocks became clearer, and there were also a few crisp gunshots.

In the valley, a group of dark red-skinned alien humanoids shouted frantically. They threw burning black things and set fire to everything they saw. At the same time, some of the people stationed in the valley rushed forward with weapons to fight them, and several people hid behind the wooden wall and shot with rifles. Unfortunately, the quality of these rifles was generally low and the accuracy was low. It took several shots to hit once.

In the open space in the middle, the collapsed watchtower and debris were burning, dividing the open space. Many corpses had fallen on the ground, most of which were people stationed in the settlement, and there were very few dark red-skinned aliens.

"Awoo--"

A long howl sounded in the valley, and a dozen "black-spotted beasts" rushed out of the fire and pounced on the people fighting in the middle. Three of them bit a more courageous warrior and tried to overturn him, while the other party picked up a thick machete and chopped it on the back of a "black-spotted beast", making it wail.

"Hiss, hiss, hahaha, noni, hiccup, you lowly bastards." The dark red alien leader laughed at him. His chest was bare, and he only had a dark brown fur apron on his body. His muscles were dense like earthworms, and he looked extremely ferocious and terrifying.

After saying that, he jumped up with the rough stone blade in his hand, and with one knife, he beat the brave warrior back several steps and fell to the ground. Then he rushed up with a wanton smile, cut the opponent's head with one knife, and grabbed it.

"No!" Seeing that their general was beheaded by the opponent with one knife, the remaining settlement personnel panicked. Some of the fighters who had been struggling to hold on were found by the enemy because of their lost their minds and were knocked down by one move.

"Wow, hahaha~" The remaining dark red aliens also laughed wildly. They kept lighting fires, stabbing and chopping down those who were still resisting.

One of the men just used his gun to block the heavy stone blade, and was hit in the abdomen by a dark red alien with his knee, and he knelt down with exhaustion. Then the other party hit him on the back of the neck with a skilled knife, causing him to faint.

"Tino Niga (caught one)." He threw the fainted man behind, and the thinner dark red aliens who followed took out ropes to tie up the man.

Crying and wailing spread in the valley settlement, and the few remaining people also lost their fighting spirit and began to run for their lives. Unfortunately, this is a fenced valley, and there are only towering mountain walls behind.

"Ahhhhh——" An elderly woman rushed up with a crude iron bucket, but the iron bucket was directly smashed by a dark red alien, and the strange black oil poured out, which was soon ignited by the surrounding flames and burned on the woman and the dark red alien.

Even the aliens who like to use fire can't stand the burning caused by high temperature. He kept rolling on the ground and tried to extinguish the fire with mud, but it was not effective, and his companions around him had to jump to avoid it.

"Krusi (idiot)." The dark red alien leader came over with a grumble, picked him up, and then crushed the struggling woman's body with his feet, and smeared her flesh and blood on his companions, barely extinguishing the flames.

He didn't bother to care about what happened afterwards, and asked the people behind him to help deal with it. At this time, he saw that there were still a few people guarding the cave entrance under the mountain wall to block the attacking personnel, so he threw away a few fellow tribesmen who were blocking the way and strode towards the cave entrance.

"Hehehe——" He grumbled a rough and wild laugh, and seemed very excited and in a good mood.

The wide stone blade swept across, directly smashing and breaking the debris that blocked the way, blowing two of them away and hitting the mountain wall, and then slashed one of them in half with a knife, and blood flowed everywhere.

"Ahhhhhh——" The man who was not dead yet tried his last bit of strength to crawl on the ground, but unfortunately he lost his ability to move after only a few steps and fell to the ground with his eyes open.

The big feet stepped on the gravel ground, one of which crushed the head that had not yet closed its eyes, and then continued to step into the cave in the mountain wall. The air here was cool and dry, and the further you walked, the more pottery jars you could see.

"Knock" A knife slapped it down, and the pottery jar broke with a sound, revealing the ground wheat bran flour inside.

This tall dark red alien rarely stopped, picked up some with his fingers, and put it in his mouth to taste.

"Chew Luga (delicious)."

Then he turned around and called two younger brothers to come over to clean up and protect these pottery jars, and then prepared to look inside again.

At this time, a long and angry roar came from the depths of the cave, and its sound was dull, like the deep mooing of a big cow.

Then there were hurried footsteps and running sounds, and the whole cave seemed to shake as if the ground was shaking, and the ground shook slightly.

A figure about three meters tall with bloodshot eyes ran out of the cave. He raised his arms high, and his huge hands pounced down like thick iron, grabbing the alien leader holding the stone blade.

The stone blade slashed diagonally in the air, cutting through the rough palm, bringing up some sparks, and then was firmly grasped by the shoulders and lifted up by the giant hands.

After his feet left the ground, the dark red alien leader continued to struggle, and the earthworm-like hideous muscles on his body also exuded bright red blood, as tight as steel bars, and the blade in his hand kept slashing, leaving bloody wounds on the arm of the opposite black shadow.

Afterwards, he was grabbed and smashed against the stone wall in the corner, and his back and head smashed a crack in the stone, but this was not the end. The other party still grabbed the dark red alien leader and smashed his head against the stone wall again and again like a bell, until the whole head was broken into mud and flesh. He threw it down, howled, and continued to rush out of the cave.

At this moment, seeing their leader die tragically, the rest of the dark red aliens were also horrified. They retreated in panic, and kept throwing out burning black paste to block this terrifying tall figure.

During the chase, the black shadow walked out of the cave and finally exposed itself to the evening sky, revealing its conspicuous giant horns and hind hooves. Its body was like a human-shaped moose magnified several times. At this moment, its eyes were like those of an ox, and it looked at everything in the valley with bloodshot eyes. It howled and wailed, and then rushed towards the invading dark red aliens regardless of the flames burning on its body. It killed several dark red aliens along the way. The thick antlers on its head lowered their heads and slashed across the ground, taking away several aliens who had no time to dodge along the way, dragging them up, drawing a high parabola in the air, hitting the mountain wall, rolling to the ground, and being trampled to death by him who came again.

Turning around, this figure covered with wounds, bloodstains, and burning with flames and smoke moved its hind hooves and rushed towards the dark red aliens who were constantly retreating and fleeing, smashing countless debris in this valley, going back and forth again and again, chasing every strange moving figure in the blood-red vision.

Two thick wrists grabbed the arm, lifted it high, and then tore it apart from the air. The smelly blood and internal organs poured onto the ground, and the mournful cry like a bull's roar echoed through the mountains.

...

When Tilan, Sura and the other two arrived, the entire valley settlement was already a tragic and messy scene, with burnt ashes from the flames, black coagulated blood, and various mutilated corpses everywhere.

Only in the center of the open space, the tall figure was kneeling on the ground, with flesh and intestines hanging from the huge horns on his head, and dark red fire marks that had not been completely extinguished on his body. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
