#1966 - Run-down hut

Considering the previous experience, it is not too outrageous to find a village in the planet fortress.

After all, there are even savages. The people brought by the portal will try to survive here and will definitely build something different from the style of the planet fortress.

But the supplies here are not sufficient to allow people to have nothing better to do than build an uninhabited village for fun. Both Kevin's tribe and the town of the foundry are full of life.

It is impossible for the Glowing Ion Yin Order to build such a thing in the mine. Moreover, considering that the path they came down was the result of the collapse of a slope used to transport soil debris, this village should have been built after the road surface collapsed.

The construction technology is just the use of mud and rubble, which does not seem to be the work of the Glowing Ion Yin Order.

This strange situation made everyone nervous. They walked more lightly and aimed their guns at every shadow where a monster might exist.

It was not until they continued to move forward and were almost at the edge of the village next to the Black Swamp that they saw something different.

A thatched and mud hut sat at the foot of a ridge, surrounded by a woven fence.

This is very rare. After all, there are plenty of metal raw materials in the planet fortress, but thatch and branches...

Anyway, Alyssa and the others had never seen it at all along the way.

If you get closer, you can see small animal bones hanging from the eaves, swaying and rattling like wind chimes as the icy mist emerges from the swamp.

But from the window of the cabin, you can see tiny dots of fire, as if someone inside had lit a bonfire.

Thick fog quickly came over, and in a moment the cottage disappeared behind a large cloud of fog, leaving only the little firelight by the window.

Seeing this, Alyssa pressed the headphones, but Li Chengxi did not give any more instructions. At least it should be safe for the time being.

"Let's go over and take a look, maybe there are still people here."

The two giant crocodiles placed at the door are most likely the gate guards. In that case, someone must be keeping them.

Lieutenant Duy entered the fence first, glancing left and right as if to confirm the threat, and then the others followed and approached.

There is a small vegetable garden inside the fence, where some wild vegetables are planted, which actually look like weeds. Don't expect to get any delicious vegetable seeds in such a damn place. They just plant whatever is available.

A bunch of mushrooms emerged from the lower left corner of the cabin, as if greedily breathing in the thick mist in the air. I don't know if it was an illusion, but with the slight rhythm of the mushrooms, it seemed to have grown a circle bigger.

Alyssa was about to knock on the door when she saw a dry claw-like hand stretched out from the bedside of the cabin, grabbed a mushroom that had obviously grown a lot, and pulled one of them off.

But its movement to retract paused, and then an old and hoarse voice sounded in the hut.

"Strange, there are actually people visiting me. Who are you?"

Voiceprint analysis showed that it was an old woman who was equivalent to over 70 years old in human age, and she spoke the common language instead of some gibberish barbarian language.

Alyssa took off her mask and shouted loudly into the hut:

"We entered here by accident. May I ask what place this is?"

We certainly can't just say that we have a battleship outside. Alyssa wanted to hear what the other party said.

First, a series of suppressed laughter was heard in the hut, which gave people goose bumps. The image of an old witch standing in front of a large cauldron and boiling a child almost appeared in my mind.

"This is a tombstone, and I am just an old immortal."

Then, the door of the hut creaked open a crack:

"Come in and chat. I can't remember how long it has been since I last saw an outsider."

This style of painting doesn't feel very safe.

So, do you want to go in?

Alyssa hesitated for a moment. Li Chengxi still did not send a warning of danger, so she winked at Sophia and Sana, and then responded:

"Then I'm sorry to bother you."

This small room was only about ten meters long at most, and the space inside was obviously not enough for all twenty of them to fit in, not to mention the two large units of Xista and Benben.

Alyssa asked the others to stay outside and wait, and she took Sofia and Shanna into the cabin.

Sofia is very skilled, and Sanafia can even take down the airlock door and throw it around for fun. With these two bodyguards, they can always send out a signal no matter how bad the situation.

If the guy in the hut did anything wrong, Alyssa would immediately call on her teammates to tear down the dilapidated house.

The hut has only one low entrance, and it feels like a house built for dwarves or half-humans. Humans like Alyssa have to lower their heads to get in, and Sophia has to bend over to ensure that she doesn't hit her head.

The cabin looked only about ten meters from the outside, but when you came in, you found that the inside was surprisingly large, several times larger than it looked from the outside.

This is definitely not some excellent design that makes the interior space look larger. It is most likely that there are some magical factors involved.

In the center of the cabin, there was a fire pit on the muddy wooden floor, burning extremely rare wood, providing basic lighting and warmth. On the walls on all four sides were hung dead mice, feathers of some birds, frogs, and the corpses of strange creatures that looked a bit like rabbits but had a pair of fangs.

There are also some pottery jars and glass jars placed around the wall. It seems that the pottery jars are made by themselves, while the glass jars may be obtained from the Glow Ion Yin Xiu Society. The level of craftsmanship is not something that can be made by hand.

Through the glass, you can see some kind of amber viscous liquid inside, but it is not known what is inside for the time being.

Several long-legged spiders were crawling along the wall, and there were many spider webs hidden in the corners. The whole hut was filled with the smell of grease, smoke and a rotten old man's odor.

And speaking of old people being smelly, the person who just spoke was at the other end of the room.

Her skinny body was leaning against a rocking chair, with a stove at hand, and she was casually stirring the fuel in the stove with a short stick.

Like her voice, she looked very old, almost so old that she was almost shrunk into a skeleton.

She was wearing a loose floral skirt and a fur cape, as if the clothes could weigh her down.

Hearing the footsteps of Alyssa and the others coming in, the old woman turned her head, revealing a pair of completely milky white eyes.

She seemed to have an eye disease like cataracts, and she could hardly see anything. Her wrinkled face was not facing Alyssa, but in the general direction.

He grinned, revealing his dark yellow teeth and white diseased gums, and said cheerfully:

"Hurry up and sit down. It's very humid here."

Although it looks scary, it seems...

Is your attitude friendly?
