Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 138: Chapter 113: Leading to Death! Wang Shouzhe_1

The External Realm!

Since ancient times, it has been an area both yearned for and profoundly revered by humans, and a place enthusiastically talked about and acclaimed by countless people.

Here.

Even an ordinary independent cultivator could potentially become wealthy overnight, securing a fortune that they could not deplete in their lifetime.

Here.

Even a Tianren Realm powerhouse could tragically fall, leaving no remains.

In the External Realm, there is no absolute safety.

Thus, as soon as he stepped into the External Realm, Wang Shouzhe ordered everyone to be on guard and put on armors made of Level Three crocodile skin.

This kind of armor is difficult to break with common swords and not very heavy, making it cost-effective in combat.

At the same time, four of the stronger household heads took the lead, spreading out in a fan formation in front of the team.

These are the scouts.

The role of the scouts is to clear the path and detect the possible presence of fierce beasts or any other threats in advance. Upon detecting any threats, they will not engage in combat. Instead, they will assess the situation, fire different signal arrows, alert the main force and immediately retreat.

In this way, the core group has time to prepare and react.

In addition, three weaker household heads act as rearguards, scattered behind the main force to prevent attacks from behind with fierce beasts or enemies.

They are usually very vigilant, keeping their field of vision wide.

If there were enough hands, escort guards could also be arranged on the flanks.

However, the Wang family lacks manpower, and the team is relatively small, so everything is simplified.

There are a total of ten carts in the main force.

These carts had their horses replaced with the heavy-duty draught horses from the northern territories by Wang Shouzhe. These horses are strong and well- trained, remaining unfazed in the face of fierce beasts.

Besides the Old Ancestor in the carts.

The rest are loaded with various supplies.

Such as spare weapons and equipment, ammunition, fishnets, tents, ropes, blankets, clothing, water, common food, White Jade Spiritual Rice, cooking oil, kitchenware, and even a lot of Dan medicine, and much smokeless charcoal, etc.

The entire autumn and winter hunt typically lasts for fifteen days to a month. The consumption during this period is a huge number. As the weather becomes cooler in this process, all sorts of cold-resistance supplies are indispensable.

Wang Shouzhe couldn’t help but sigh. In the fantasy novels he had read in his past life, people who went out to hunt monsters traveled light and unrestrained.

But here, setting out to hunt is like moving house, even carrying several baskets of kitchenware.

As for storage bracelets and the like, they do exist in this world.

However, the lowest-level storage space bracelet, which only has one cubic meter, is at the Spirit Instrument Level!

The Wang family, being small and humble, cannot afford such high-end goods.

Moreover, one or two storage bracelets are useless in team operations.

The juniors of the Wang family, represented by Wang Luoqiu and Wang Luo Jing, as well as girls like Wang Licui, are participating in the autumn and winter hunt for the first time.

They are exceptionally excited, as if they believe that once they step into the External Realm, monsters abound for them to slay, and they are already rubbing their hands to have a big fight.

Such a shame!

They have overestimated.

How vast is the External Realm? If it were covered with fierce beasts, could humans still survive?

Not to mention fierce beasts, even ordinary carnivorous beasts occupy large territories. This fringe area of the External Realm has been swept by humans countless times, and it’s not easy to find a pack of earth wolves.

But even so, the team progresses with utmost caution.

Because anything can happen in the External Realm.

Perhaps one counts while walking, a Level Four, or even a Level Five fierce beast may suddenly appear. Of course, the likelihood is extremely low.

“Shouzhe!” Wang Shouxin, who is also fully armed and riding a horse, came over. He is already in his forties. Having been to the External Realm so many times, he’s well-acquainted with the journey.

He showed a map to Wang Shouzhe and said, “According to the plan set before departure, we need to arrive at the slope campsite before the beginning of the Shi period (3pm to 5pm). The current speed of the team is a bit slow.”

Shi period, approximately 3pm to 5pm, Wang Shouxin’s words mean that they need to reach the campsite before 3pm.

And the team needs to settle down while it is still light. Otherwise, if night falls before the camp is set up, it would not only be dangerous but also trigger low morale and so on.

That’s right, although humans do not have places to reside and multiply in the External Realm.

But the ancestors naturally established simple camping sites based on landscape advantages. Over generations, those points have acquired some defensive capabilities.

And no family would run to the External Realm like a headless fly. The action path, battle plan, and the supplies needed require precise calculation and repeated discussions.

“Pass the order, speed up the progress for the whole team.” Wang Shouzhe ordered to speed up.

The speed of the entire team slightly increased. However, the following journey will become more difficult.

The previously traveled routes would have overgrown with wild plants due to the passage of time, or sprouted a large number of plants, or been destroyed by floods leaving simple routes no more.

If they encounter some obstructions like stones or plants, they will have to clear them by hand.

There’s a reason why the autumn and early winter is the time to head to the External Realm. It includes the accumulated experiences gathered by the ancestors over generations. From spring to early summer, there are likely continuous rainy seasons, and if not careful, flash floods may occur, causing various dangers.
