Bao Liang buried his head in his meal and had long forgotten that he had said goodbye to his tribesmen in tears a minute ago. Damn, after this meal, he would be willing to die.

It was the first time he had eaten something that tasted as good as meat.

Yan ate slowly, but his movements were not slow. As soon as he put his mouth into it, he felt that the food was made with the same ingredients as the half pancake he had eaten last night, but the taste was different.

The taste is just as delicious.

Lang Rui saw that the scene was going on in an orderly manner. He found Yan in the corner. He needed to find someone to understand the situation. "Follow me."

Yan drank the last mouthful of soup in the stone bowl and followed.

In terms of combat power, he is certainly not as good as the tall and straight Lang Rui, but he can travel around the Orc Continent and work as a traveling merchant, relying not only on combat power, but also on his flexible brain and his photographic memory and face recognition skills.

Yan followed Lang Rui confidently into a tent where a cub was playing with six kittens.

As soon as I sat down, a handsome man came with a wooden tray and put down some beautifully shaped food on it. They were served in small white porcelain plates. The sweet and sour taste made me salivate unconsciously.

"Cat White?"

Mao Bai recognized Yan as soon as he came in, but he pretended not to know her, wanting to see if Yan could recognize him.

Hearing that Yan recognized him, Mao Bai showed a subtle smile, "Brother Yan."

Yan also noticed the changes in Mao Bai. His previous timidity disappeared, and he became confident and confident. His gaze fell on the six kittens not far away, and then on Lang Rui.

Lang Rui knew that he had misunderstood, and he didn't want to have this misunderstanding, "I have a partner, not Mao Bai."

Qiao Xin took a female who had experience in dealing with and caring for patients to the Medical Department.

He was also afraid that Lang Yu would run over there, so he specifically asked Lang Rui to keep an eye on him.

Yan smiled and didn't feel embarrassed. He recounted what he saw and heard after they escaped from the Fire Fox Tribe.

Lang Rui pondered for a moment and said, "You mean, from Fox Hill to the north, the tribes we passed by are almost deserted?"

Yan put away the smile on his face, his expression was heavy, "They were not destroyed, nor were they captured by slave owners to be slaves. They got a plague and were wiped out. Corpses were seen everywhere along the way."

As they fled, they were like a swarm of locusts, not only stuffing any food they saw on the road into their mouths, but also taking advantage of their large numbers to rob the food of weak tribes.

The tribes whose food was stolen could not survive and joined the group fleeing northward. Unfortunately, as they went north, more and more people were infected and many of them died and fell behind.

They walked numbly, not knowing where their destination was or whether they would be the next to fall.

When they reached the vicinity of Black Rock City, there were only about 2,000 people left.

When they saw Lang Ye bringing cartloads of supplies, this team of people composed of people of different races rushed forward as usual, but ended up hitting a wall.

Lang Rui pursed his lips, "When did it start?"

Yan picked up a red fruit from the white porcelain plate. A sweet taste spread in his mouth, neutralizing the bitterness in his heart and making him feel better. "Ninety sunsets ago, the jackal's envoys stayed at Fox Hill. After they left, many orcs with high fever appeared at Fox Hill. Not long after, the number of orcs with high fever increased."

Lang Rui raised his eyebrows, and the curve of his mouth corners became bigger and bigger. It seemed that the jackals in Blackrock City brought the virus back to the tribe. There was no need for him to take revenge. Without medical treatment, the jackals would surely kill themselves.

Yan combined what Mao Fei said last night and analyzed that Lang Rui might not have taken Black Rock City by force. It was probably because the Jackals knew that Black Rock City was infected with a plague and there was no cure, so they were scared to death and let Lang Rui take advantage of it.

Yan didn't think it was luck, otherwise even if he had picked up a ready-made opportunity, he wouldn't be able to manage a city. Just the fact that he had been squatting there for half a day and everything he observed told him that it was not easy.

Black Rock City in particular has changed a lot. The short and dilapidated city walls have become tall and magnificent. When he sneaked in last night, he only felt that it was very high, but after seeing its complete appearance this morning, he found that even the walls of the Beast God City in the Beast God Temple could not compare to it.

There are also huge weapons made of wood mounted on the city walls. They are supported by tree trunks as thick as arms, sharpened to sharp points, and flashing with cold light. One can imagine what kind of damage they will cause once they are launched.

He had been to many cities, but this was the only one he had seen with weapons mounted on the city walls.

Lang Rui was not a kind-hearted person and had no interest in being a savior. He just wanted to manage the little piece of land in front of him and avenge his people when he had spare energy. Now he had gotten rid of one enemy without having to kill him with his own hands, and he was in a very good mood.

Lang Yu had already set his sights on the snacks on the table. He ran over and raised his little face, "Brother, I want to eat this red fruit."

Lang Rui picked up the small plate and stuffed it into Lang Yu's arms, "Is it enough?"

Lang Yu held the small plate and tilted his head to look at the other plates, "I want to eat them all."

Lang Rui moved the small table directly to where Lang Yu and the others were playing.

Yan: “…” I’ve seen people spoiling their cubs, but I’ve never seen anyone spoiling their cubs like this.

He quite likes these snacks. Not only are they beautifully prepared, but they also taste really good, making one's mouth water.

Mao Bai had no choice but to go out and bring over a kang table and put snacks on it again.

Lang Rui: "Then why are you heading north? You know the further north you go, the more corpses there are."

Yan took a deep breath, "Do we have any choice? The further south we go, the denser the cities are. Once we enter the territory of a city, we will either be captured or driven away and killed."

Mao Bai and Lang Rui looked at each other.

Mao Bai felt that Yan's words were both true and false. After walking north for so long, is there no deep mountain or old forest to hide in? If they hide in the mountains, the weather is still good now, and they can collect a lot of plants and barely survive the winter. Why do they have to go all the way north?

It is not difficult to see that in this team, there is always someone who makes decisions and it is this person who directs the team forward.

Even Mao Bai could guess it, so there was no way Lang Rui couldn't have guessed it.

Who is this guy?

Mao Bai noticed that Lang Rui remained calm. Fearing that he might mess things up, he quietly retreated, taking the table, cat, and wolf cub out with him.

Langyu and Xiaomao sat on the table: "?!"

Yan glanced at Mao Bai and his cubs and saw them go out, "?!"

Lang Rui did not hide anything and directly said his guess. Yan chuckled, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you. It's me."

There was a hint of tenderness in Lang Rui's eyes. Yan was still the same Yan as before, open and honest.

Yan knew that Lang Rui was waiting for his answer, the answer to why he came north.

Yan looked into Lang Rui's eyes, "I was captured by the Jackals in Black Rock City, reduced to a slave, and sold to the Fire Fox Tribe. I want revenge."

Lang Rui frowned, considering Yan's fighting ability and the strength of his tribe, it would cost a lot to catch him. These crazy people of the Jackal Tribe would indeed do such a thing at any cost and cut off their own retreat.

The leader of this group of people has been found, and their origins are also known.

Yan was taken to the quarantine station on the right side outside the city.

"Revenge?!" Qiao Xin felt that Yan's reason was a bit poor.

Knowing that the jackals have returned to their tribe north of the Jingyue River, going further north would not be a matter of revenge.

Lang Rui did not expose Yan's lie on the spot.

Mao Bai hesitated several times, and Qiao Xin noticed, "Mao Bai, just say what you want to say."

Mao Bai: "Maybe you came here for Mao Fei?"

Qiao Xin's gossip fire was ignited, "Tell me more quickly."

Mao Bai: "... Mao Fei has a close relationship with Brother Yan. Mao Fei has an owner."

Qiao Xin touched his chin and said, "It seems that Yan didn't see Mao Fei in the jackal tribe's team, so he came all the way north with a fluke mentality. He is really a romantic man."

Lang Rui was speechless: "......"

These two people, one is suspected to be the mastermind in Black Rock City, and the other is the mastermind in the fugitive team. They are a perfect match!
