Chapter 363: Little town
So what if Vivian could ask for a city?
The elves isolated themselves and especially feared humans. They would not allow humans to live in elven cities and they would not allow humans to manage their cities. Having Chu Tian live in an elven city was rather a restraint.
The Forest of Chaos environment was different from the Southern Summer Country. If one’s fist was not hard enough, they wouldn’t be able to stay no matter how many they had. This was also the reason why Chu Tian was not in a rush to find an ally. In this lawless and chaotic place, one would attack as they pleased. As long as there was profit, there would be no reasoning at all.
“Honoured guests.” The rabbit people village head walked over leaning on a cane. He spoke in a fearful and respectful voice, “You have helped this village reclaim our spring and we are very grateful to you. Is there anything we can help you with?”
The rabbit people were a type of spirit beasts, but they were low class spirit beasts.
Spirit beasts were one of the most complex races on the continent.
Humans had dwarves, barbarians, and giants as distant relatives. The elves had forest elves, snow elves, fire elves, and other differences. However, there has never been a race like the spirit beasts that could have several hundred branches, with each branch being a separate species. This was actually very incredible.
The characteristics of a spirit beast lied in the higher level of a spirit beast, the crueler they were and the lower level of a spirit beast, the more docile they were. The rabbit race was a species that didn’t like fighting because they were very weak. The rabbit race usually lived with higher level races. There weren’t many of these independent rabbit race villages because once they targeted by other race hunters or strong demon beasts, they would all be wiped out.
The rabbit race did not have many skills and weren’t very civilized, not even understanding source energy arrays, not to mention alchemy and other skills. The Spring of Life was the only way for the rabbit race to survive. Chu Tian’s group recapturing the spring from the demon beasts was a very large favour to the rabbit race.
The rabbit race was only worried of them having other plans. If these people had bad intentions in their hearts, this village could not be saved. The rabbit people would have to evacuate as soon as possible or they would be completely destroyed.
“We are just a few ordinary adventurers. We came into the Forest of Chaos this time to purchase some materials. But we are not familiar with the people and land of the Forest of Chaos, so we don’t know where to buy materials. We have to ask the village head for some advice.
When they didn’t have enough strength, it wasn’t bad to be low key.
Chu Tian had already thought of a goal for this trip into the Forest of Chaos, they just wanted to secure a supply of materials for Miracle Commerce. He wanted to supply Miracle Commerce with high level materials to satisfy the needs in making the Source Energy Weapons. He would not be participating in the battles of the Forest of Chaos for now.
Capturing a city to create a power? Forget it! With their current power, any random tribe would be enough to destroy Miracle Commerce!
Everything would be ruined by rushing, he would first create the berserker army before saying anything else!
“Around a hundred miles from here, there is an inhabited area which is a temporary little town. When the village needs to exchange for supplies, we always go to that little town.” The rabbit village head let out a sigh of relief, “This little town is not big, but it carries many of the forest’s special products. If sir does not find anything satisfying, perhaps you can also obtain information from there.”
A temporary little town?
Chu Tian could understand this!
For the small and even medium sized powers in this forest, they all needed to follow the dark forest law. The dark forest law were not hard to understand, they meant that in a dark forest, there were many hunters. These hunters all hunted each other’s prey, so it was necessary to hide oneself in this kind of environment.
Once that was revealed.
It would be very risky!
Not only would it invite other hunters, it would also attract the attention of certain giants. This would invite the danger of being annexed or completely exterminated. Therefore, for the small and medium powers that didn’t establish a city, they could only follow the dark forest law if they wanted to develop in the Forest of Chaos.
Because they didn’t dare reveal themselves, how could they exchange for supplies with others? This kind of temporary little town was one method of doing so. When a village needed supplies, they would disguise themselves to come to this little town. After obtaining the things they need, they would immediately leave this place, not daring to remain longer or else they would attract the attention of others.
Since they had obtained information, they would now leave.
“Sir, please wait.”
The rabbit race village head could see Chu Tian was the leader. He softly clapped his hands and several beautiful rabbit girls came out. These rabbit girls were all dressed up and were looking at Chu Tian with watery eyes.
“What is the meaning of this?”
“These are the ten most beautiful girls in our village and are all virgins. We are giving them to sir to have them become sir’s maids. The rabbit race is very docile and will properly serve sir.”
Fuck, it can’t be!
Chu Tian was a bit stunned.
The rabbit race did look a bit strange because they were a different race from humans. But from the aesthetic sense of a human, the rabbit had petite, full, and soft bodies, they were excellent female servants. In the human world, a single beautiful rabbit could be sold for a very high price, not to mention a virgin.
However, Chu Tian could clearly feel a knife like gaze staring at him. Even Chen Bingyu was silently staring at him and Vivian had knit her brows.
How could he want them?
Chu Tian righteously declined, “Am I, Chu Tian someone who is eager for beauties and steps over others? I understand the village head’s good intentions, but I can’t accept this kind of gift.”
The rabbit race village head said, “No, it is their honour. I hope sir will not decline.”
These words were not false, the young rabbit girls revealed looks of hope. They lived in the Forest of Chaos, living every day dangerously. If they could become the maid of an expert, it would be like turning into a phoenix. Not to mention the fact that humans conformed to the rabbit race’s aesthetics, it was better than a fierce looking tiger race or bear race person.
From the perspective of the rabbit village, they could also monitor Chu Tian. If Chu Tian were to give the position of the rabbit race’s village away, these rabbit girls could come back to report and protect the village.
In the Forest of Chaos, they had no choice but to be careful!
“Village head, don’t force it. The temporary little town is not safe, so it isn’t safe for us to bring these girls along!” Meng Yingying suddenly stood up and said, “We’ll leave them here for now and take them when we have a chance. We’ll do this first!”
The rabbit race village chief saw that the other side was not willing, so he felt a bit of loss in his heart.
Were your truly noble in not seeking small profit or were you prepared to want more?
It was hard to tell if this was a blessing or a misfortune!
The rabbit race village chief looked at Meng Yingying, Vivian, and Chen Bingyu for a few seconds. This person had so many beauties by his side, perhaps the mediocre girls of the rabbit race village really couldn’t catch his eyes. At least he could only comfort himself like this.
Chu Tian left the little village!
Meng Yingying coughed twice before saying, “You’ve lost ten beautiful maids, are you disappointed?”
“How could that be? I, Chu Tian am not that kind of person! I am an advocate of free love, this kind of buying and selling business needs a firm mind!”
“Who know what kind of things you’re thinking!” Meng Yingying rolled her eyes. She looked back at the rabbit village covered in faint light and sighed, “But these rabbit people are really pitiful. They’re this weak and have to live in this dangerous environment, I’m afraid them being discovered and eliminated is just a matter of time. But it’s truly strange, the Forest of Chaos is this rich in resources, why do they fight each other so brutally?”
“The Forest of Chaos has always been like this, it’s either you die or I die.” Vivian didn’t find this strange anymore, “It has always been hard for a small power to survive. As long as they are set on by a stronger power, they will be attacked without any hesitation.”
Meng Yingying said to Chu Tian, “Hey, since this place is so chaotic, you should unify it and allow those weak races to live in peace!”
Damn, look at your tone! You say it like it’s easy to do!
Not to mention the others, how do I even deal with the Dragon Lord?
The weapons that Chu Tian had produced up to now couldn’t even hurt a single one of his scales. Not to mention the other strong existences like the Elven King, the Titans, the Beast King, and the Sea King!
But Chu Tian was not someone that feared others, he immediately patted his chest and said, “Since it’s Yingying’s orders, then I have to do my best to complete it!”
Meng Yingying revealed a sweet smile as her heart filled with satisfaction. Chu Tian had already said this, that meant there was no problem since there was nothing he couldn’t do in this world! Vivian was envious of the relationship Yingying and Chu Tian had, Chu Tian was the person she worshipped!
When the five of them left, it was already the middle of the night.
Travelling the forest by night was very dangerous because it was filled with demon beasts. No one wanted to travel at night, but Chu Tian was filled with courage, not thinking that anything that could threaten him would appear on the edge of the Forest of Chaos.
The Forest of Chaos was filled with fireflies, sunlight vines, glowing grass, fluorescent mushrooms, and etc. They automatically glowed at night and although it wasn’t bright, it wasn’t dark enough that they couldn’t see their hands in front of them. Of course, not all things filled with light were good. There were someone monsters that used beautiful light and illusions to confuse people, attracting prey to them.
This beautiful and magical scene was actually lurking with dangers. The sounds of insects filled the forest and demon beasts roars could be occasionally heard.
The five of them did not stop for a second.
Although they were attacked several times on the road, they all avoided it without any danger. Finally they arrived at their destination in the early morning.
The rosy clouds draped over the forest like flames and the light golden sunlight was draped over the little town which blended into the dense forest around it. If it wasn’t for the rabbit race village head, even if they approached it, they would not know there was a little town hidden there. It was completely hidden, being covered in green vines, almost becoming part of the forest.
Saldo was the spirit beast’s word for “Forest House”, so the majority of people in this little town were spirit beasts.
This town had no guards or leader. In this place where law didn’t mean shit, one’s strength represented everything and whoever’s fist was harder could act however they pleased.
What made Chu Tian very surprised was that although it was small and shabby with less than several thousand people living here, there were bars, general stores, and other stores. However to settle down here, they definitely were not ordinary people.
For example, the boss of the alchemist guild, he was a criminal that had escaped the Great Zhou Country.
The alchemy skills of this person was very skilled, refining a poison that killed three hundred people from an enemy noble clan, causing him to run flee from the Great Zhou Country to the Forest of Chaos. He was hiding in this small town, being one of the few humans living here.
Over these years, he had mixed himself into this society.
Because alchemists were very rare here, when the important people of various villages were sick, they all came to him for treatment. Therefore in just a few years, this fellow had recruited many female apprentices who all had exceptional beauty.
These female apprentices only learned simple medicinal knowledge, helping in the day and draining his desires at night. When a customer liked one of them, he would be free to use them which would become an additional fee added to their medical fee. There were times when this income was higher than proper income.
These girls did not have any possessions and had to endure torment all day long, but they were satisfied with their masters and their lifestyles.
If it wasn’t for the small status of their master, how could they fill their stomachs and live safe lives?
After all, slaves were no different from bugs here.
Alcohol, tobacco, drugs, slaves, violence, and sex trade......This small town was just a small part of the Forest of Chaos, but it represented the situation of the majority of the Forest of Chaos.
