Swallowing the Stars Starts with the Brewing Master

Chapter 6 One-horned Iron Rhinoceros
According to the current human definition, wilderness areas refer to continental areas outside human base cities, including dilapidated cities, suburbs, wastelands, mountains, forests, lakes, etc.

For the humans living in the base city of this era, the word "wilderness area" is synonymous with the forbidden land of death.

There are all kinds of monsters there, some are insidious and weird, some are powerful and savage.

If you encounter a group of them, it is basically a death sentence.

Under the tide of beasts, even the God of War cannot guarantee that he can survive.

Hundreds of miles north of the Northeast Base City, there is a military garrison.

"Rumble..."

The train stopped slowly at the military station.

Fully armed warriors walked off the train one after another, there were more than thirty of them.

These more than 30 people were naturally divided into five teams.

"Chu He, usually when we warriors go out to hunt monsters and resupply during the journey, we always go to the military area."

Hu Yonghua pointed to an iron tower standing tall not far away, about fifty or sixty meters high.

"See this tower? Every military district in China will have a special area designated as a supply base for warriors, specifically for us warriors to rest."

Chu He nodded.

He is very clear about this.

The tall tower represents both the military zone and the warrior supply base located in the military zone.

For warriors traveling in the wilderness, it is like a lighthouse on the sea.

Chu He followed the Jackal Team into the Warrior Supply Base, carefully observing every move of everyone in the team along the way.

Whether it is to collect materials for brewing wine or for other reasons, he will definitely choose to go alone in the future.

Warriors operate in the wilderness all year round, which puts them under great mental stress and naturally tense nerves, making it very easy for them to come into conflict with each other.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, warriors usually have unspoken rules.

Not to mention, those temporary settlements for spending the night in the wilderness area are secrets known only to experienced warriors.

These contents are all what Chu He needs to master most at the moment.

The warrior supply base in front of us is located inside the military area. The quiet small buildings are surrounded by flowers and plants. It is even quieter than the villa area in the base city.

"Jackal Squad, during this wilderness operation, you will reside and rest in Building D6."

At the supply base, a base manager handed over a key, patted Hu Yonghua on the shoulder with a smile, and his eyes remained on Chu He.

"Old Hu, are you planning to bring in new people this time?"

"Newbies usually have good luck. If you get something good, how about leaving a portion for me? Don't worry, I'll definitely give you a high price."

"That's true... I'll just give you my blessing!" Hu Yonghua laughed. "I'm not expecting anything good from a newcomer. I just hope they come back safely."

"Safe and stable? That's not your style, Jackal!" The base manager asked in a low voice while entering the Jackal team's information on the computer, "Why, is this new guy important? Whose family is he from?"

"Who else could it be? Someone from the Chu family."

"Old Chu?" The base manager's tone suddenly rose three points. "Old Chu is quitting?"

“Safety should really be the priority.”

"Okay, wait a minute. I'll quickly arrange for someone to prepare lunch for you."

……

The sun sets and the sky grows darker.

In the evening, the six fully armed members of the Jackal Squad boarded two off-road vehicles, left the supply base one after another, and entered the wilderness area.

On the SUV in front.

"It will take about three days to reach our destination - County-level City No. 0316 by following this highway. There are some precautions on the road, let me briefly tell you about them..." Hu Yonghua introduced the precautions along the way, including the location of each temporary stop.

Chu He couldn't help but look at the highway in front of him.

This was the first time he saw the former highway since coming to this world.

For the humans living in the base city, the highway in the wilderness area has long become a legendary existence.

The highway in front of us has long been dilapidated.

Chu He looked at the several cracks on the road and imagined what the scene would be like on this road in the past.

The reddish rays of the setting sun shine on this highway that has been silent, dilapidated and in disrepair for decades.

"Roar……"

"Ouch..."

In the wastelands on both sides of the highway, bursts of monster roars could be heard from time to time from several dilapidated brick and stone houses nearby.

Even Chu He saw many monsters with just a quick glance.

In the car, the other members of the Jackal Squad were very relaxed, but Chu He did not dare to relax at all.

He really wanted to be like everyone else, hiding the indifference in his eyes, and then his eyes unconsciously revealed his disdain for life.

When reading those novels, Chu He had drawn himself into them more than once.

I fantasize that if that day really comes, it will definitely be a cool experience.

But right now, he really couldn't relax.

Whether in his past life or this life, Chu He had never experienced a situation where he was surrounded by enemies and a life-and-death battle could break out at any moment.

"Perhaps later... after I'm truly familiar with the wilderness, I can turn a blind eye to this like the rest of the Jackal Squad."

Unconsciously, Chu He was filled with thoughts.

"Well, Chu He, there is a one-horned iron rhinoceros in front that is between F and E levels. It is considered a beast soldier level. I will leave it to you." Hu Yonghua's voice sounded.

"This is your first battle in the wilderness area!"

"Huh?" Chu He suddenly reacted.

With a quick glance, he saw a one-horned rhinoceros swinging its tail aimlessly next to a small puddle in the wasteland ahead.

Chu He was like a nimble leopard, swiftly and agilely jumping behind a car that had overturned on the highway, and looked towards the one-horned iron rhinoceros not far ahead.

This one-horned iron rhino was iron-gray all over, like a heavy-duty Hummer off-road vehicle...

Do not!
Chu He looked back at his SUV.

This one-horned iron rhinoceros is obviously much larger than an off-road vehicle.

To be more precise, it should be a Tiger tank.

In the evening glow of the setting sun, the knife-like horn reflected a cold light.

As the Chu River approaches.

"Hoo-ho..."

The unicorn seemed to sense some unfamiliar aura, and it roared loudly, scanning the surroundings with murderous eyes.

"Did it... discover me?" Chu He's heart beat faster.

He didn't know if it was the adrenaline or his nature, but he actually felt a little excited at the moment.

"boom……"

The unicorn iron rhino stomped a few steps fiercely, causing Chu He to feel the ground shaking slightly even though he was hundreds of meters away.
