Gavin's guess was correct. There was indeed a truck grave here. Some truck skeletons were still very fresh and had probably been abandoned for a few months. Some are half sunk in the mud, half rotten, and covered with various fungi. These kind of ones have basically no repair value, and it is too troublesome to use them as firewood. Some of them were dismantled, leaving only a skeleton. I don’t know if they were dismantled by other caravans and used for parts, or if they were dismantled and used as firewood by the nearby lizard people. A rough estimate is that there are at least a hundred large vehicles worth restoring. Gavin's eyes suddenly condensed, and he suddenly took a step forward, blocking Anna behind him. He held the hand cannon with one hand and the long sword with the other, and yelled at a distance: "Who is it, come out!" "As expected of a brave man, his alertness... hiss... is so high, please don't misunderstand, hiss... I don't mean any harm!" A voice sounded from the depths of the truck grave. The common language was very poor and had strange syllables. Then you know it was not sent by humans. A figure walked out slowly. His whole body was covered with dark green scales, and his chest and abdomen were slightly lighter. He had a thick and long tail behind him, swinging back and forth. There was no hair on his lizard-like head, only a The hair on the temples that grows vertically is like a golden flame, with gold and red alternately. This man looked more like a large, upright-walking lizard than a human being. This lizard man looks a bit older, his body is more stooped, his scales are darker in color, and his eyes are softer than other lizard men, shining with the luster of mature wisdom. "There is no malice, why are you following us?" Gavin didn't judge books by their appearance, and he still had no intention of letting go of his weapon.
"Following? No... no... it's more appropriate to say searching... Hey, I'm here specifically to find the caravan... Lord Brave... They said, you guys are here... Hey, I followed you. ...Sigh, I didn't expect a misunderstanding." The lizard man hurriedly defended. Gavin made a rough estimate and couldn't help but believe the direction of the other party's appearance. When they came over, they took some detours in order to avoid some places that looked more like traps. The other party was a swamp dweller and was naturally more sophisticated than them. By understanding the situation, you might be able to get there earlier than they do. "What do you want from us?" Gavin more or less guessed the other party's intention. "Hire! I want to hire... brave men to help solve... hiss... my tribe's troubles... hiss..." Gavin showed a true expression, and then bluntly refused: "Sorry, we are not the kind of mercenaries you are looking for. If we don't accept additional tasks, please find someone else!" The lizard man said hurriedly: "Hey... I know the rules of you braves... I will prepare a heavy reward..." "This is not a matter of money." Gavin's attitude was also very firm. He didn't want to cause trouble now. "Two brave men, why don't you listen to my request first?" When the lizard man said this, his eyes stayed on Anna, as if he thought Anna could speak better than Gavin. "Sorry, I'm not interested, Anna, let's go." This approach of the lizard man backfired, and directly disgusted Gavin, so he dragged Anna away. "Oh!" Although Anna's eyes and expression showed that she was very interested in this matter, seeing Gavin's resolute attitude, she did not dare to interrupt and followed obediently. In her eyes, Gavin was a A kind and powerful adventurer must have his own reasons for doing this. The lizard man wanted to follow him at first, but when he saw Gavinson's cold eyes and the long sword that was about to be drawn out at any time, he wisely stopped and watched them go away. "Mr. Gavin, why don't you accept his mission? Aren't you adventurers?" Anna finally couldn't hold back her curiosity. "First of all, it is definitely not a small matter that even one of their tribes cannot solve. Our current strength is still very weak and we may not be able to help them. Secondly, we do not understand their tribe and cannot judge whether what he said is true or false. In addition, we do not understand their tribe and cannot judge whether what he said is true or false. The environment in the swamp is special. Once we go deeper, we find that the task is far beyond our capabilities and we can’t even run away.” Gai Wen taught earnestly, "Adventurers do not mean to ignore all dangers and move forward without hesitation. They must evaluate the danger of each task and their own strength. Do not touch any task that exceeds your own strength, because it may cause serious consequences. The whole army will be wiped out, and there will be no one to save us.” There is another possibility that Gavin did not mention. The mission itself is a trap, and they are the prey. This does not even involve the dark side of human nature, because they are not human in the first place. In the eyes of many lizard people, humans are just food, no different from cattle and sheep. This cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences, and Anna can only slowly understand it in the future. Anna listened attentively, nodded repeatedly, and couldn't help but ask: "Then why don't you listen to what difficulties they encountered?"
"Since you have decided not to accept his mission, why are you still listening? If you hear an extremely tragic story and you can't help them, wouldn't it increase your psychological burden?" Gavin can guarantee that the old lizard man There must be a tragic story in his mouth, this is a consistent routine. "I see." Anna nodded and couldn't help but look back at the old lizard man who had disappeared. She was kind-hearted and always felt bad about being unable to help when others asked for help, even if the other person was not human. "If you really want to help him, it won't be too late to come back when you grow strong enough." Gavin was afraid that Anna would cause trouble, so he gave her an idea that was not a good idea. "Okay, I will become strong as soon as possible." Anna's mood finally improved a lot, and she clenched her fists hard. With a pure mind, she did not consider more possibilities. Time is developing, waiting for her to become strong enough. The plight of this village has either been overcome or completely destroyed because of this incident. The possibility of waiting for her to come is very small. These are not what Gavin cares about. Life can't be perfect, even if you live again. In the next few days, Gavin kept a close eye on Anna's whereabouts, fearing that this silly girl would run to help the lizard man on her own when her head got hot. Fortunately, she was just kind-hearted, not stupid, at least she knew her own weight. Without Gavin and Vic, she couldn't help the other party at all. The cunning old lizardman had contacted Anna privately and told her the tragic story of his tribe. Because Anna turned around and came back to tell Gavin. There was a Gato swamp monster living near the old lizardman's tribe. Before he took office, it often used the tribesmen of their tribe as food. After he took office, he came up with a solution, which was to actively feed the Gato swamp monster and give him meat such as fish and livestock every month. As long as its own needs were met, the Gato swamp monster would no longer harass them. This peaceful situation lasted for several years, but the problem was that the Gato swamp monster disappeared for a while and came back, already pregnant, and soon gave birth to three cubs in her lifetime.
