Alligator's Ark of Tomorrow

Gard nodded, unaware that the people around him were looking at him as if he were a monster.

"What's wrong with you all?"

"Gald, were you speaking to her in the language of this land?!"

Serea isn't stupid. They went through all sorts of hardships to get here from the outskirts of the hot land. How did a lone Saframan get in here?

In addition, the other party knew Gard and even came to his door.

Serea couldn't help but have a bold guess.

Could it be that the lizard girl in front of us is actually an indigenous person living in this hot land?

Most importantly, the lizard girl in front of him was clearly not a Salgon. What Salgon would stutter when speaking Salgon?

The language that Gard and the lizard girl were communicating in was clearly not any Salgon dialect, otherwise Kanelian next to her wouldn't have looked as confused as she did.

Serea quickly received her answer.

“Yes, the language we were just speaking is from this land. This child is an indigenous person I met in this land. You can just think of her as an ancestor of the Safra tribe.”

The so-called Safra people are actually lizard people, and the early inhabitants made up a significant proportion of the Safra people.

Even among the exiled members of the Rhine Life, there were several Safras, but they all chose to give up entering the hot land.

"The ancestors of Safra."

Seraya looked at the lizard girl Laya and muttered to herself.

Her gaze frightened the lizard girl, but also intrigued her, because she noticed that everyone else around her looked different from her and was quite ugly.

However, these people should all be friends of Gard's brother, so even if they are ugly, she will not discriminate against them!

Having already given the introduction, upon seeing Laya holding a short sword and a small round shield, Gard asked curiously, "Laya, what are you doing here? I remember your tribe is very far from here, and how did you find me?"

"what?"

When Raaton heard Gard ask that question, she panicked a little.

“Brother Gard, I forgot, I’m a guard for the Lumma Mama caravan now. I came here to check on the situation, but after smelling your scent, I couldn’t help but come here.”

As she spoke, the lizard girl lowered her head, looking as if she had done something wrong.

"Are there any of your caravans around here?"

Upon hearing the lizard girl's words, Gard's eyes lit up.

There are many creatures living in this land, but few possess wisdom. The Laya tribe, in particular, gives Gard a feeling of returning home.

However, it cannot be denied that as the original inhabitants of this land, no one understands the environment of this land better than Raya and the others.

"Laya, can I come with your caravan? I'd like to make a deal with your caravan. Don't worry, you won't lose out."

"Ah."

Laya nodded without the slightest hesitation.

Because she knew that Gard was not a bad person, and there were also Gard's older brothers and sisters in the caravan, she didn't need to worry about any conflicts or disagreements.

After seeing that Laya agreed, Gard turned to Seria and said, "Seria, Laya and her people are natives living in the central part of the Hot Land. According to Laya, they have a caravan nearby. If we can hitch a ride, we can safely enter the central part of the Hot Land, which is very close to our destination."

Upon hearing Gard's words, Serea was invigorated.

"Really? What are the customs of these indigenous people? Is there any danger in contacting them?"

Although she had heard good news from Gard, Serea still asked cautiously.

"What price will we have to pay for this?"

"The price... let me think about it."

When Gard saw the rearview mirror of the sand car next to him, he immediately knew what to use for the trade.

“The residents of this land should like mirrors.”

Gard remembered that when he stayed in the Laya tribe before, he saw a mirror made of melted sand in the Laya chief's room.

It has many impurities, but it is extremely precious and won't let anyone touch it.

Gard ripped off the rearview mirror from a dune buggy and held it up to Laya, asking, "Laya, can we use this mirror as a trade?"

"Yeah!"

As soon as Laya saw her reflection in the mirror, she immediately lay down on the ground and hid shyly. After a while, she looked at the mirror in Gard's hand with curiosity.

"This is Grandma Nunnally's treasure!"

When Laya saw her reflection in the mirror, her girlish love of beauty quickly overcame her fear of the unknown.

She stole a glance at Gard before looking in the mirror and carefully tending to her face, which looked a little dirty from being buried in the sand.

My heart was pounding. After smelling Gard's scent, I initially approached this strange building, which looked like a house, just to give it a try.

But unexpectedly, Gard's brother was actually inside.

Because her brother Gard left a very long time ago, and the sun rose and set many times, Laya thought she would never have the chance to see her brother Gard again.

Unexpectedly, she ran into her brother Gard here.

Could this be the instruction from the god Nanani?

Laya secretly glanced to the side, but didn't see any of her kind who looked as beautiful and handsome as her brother Gard. In her opinion, even if Gard were to get married, he would definitely marry a wife who was as tall and strong as him.

The people around me look short and thin. Have they not eaten for a long time?

How pitiful!

Laya felt that Gard must be the warrior mentioned in the prophecy of the god Nanani, leading all the tribes out of suffering.

These people around must be the "refugees" that Brother Gard is saving.

Thinking of this, Laya forcefully pushed away the mirror from Gard's hand.

"Brother Gard, I can't accept such a precious treasure!"

"The lizard girl, Laya, said earnestly."

“I will persuade the older brothers and sisters in the caravan to help you, Brother Gard.”

"Because you, Brother Gard, said that if we want to live a good life, we have to help each other."

"Thanks to Brother Gard, all the children in the tribe are alive now."

The girl's innocent eyes brought Gard some comfort, but he still handed the mirror to the lizard girl, Laya.

“Laya, we still have such treasures. We can’t let your caravan carry so many of us for nothing.”

Laya wanted to decline, but seeing more and more "refugees" gathering around, she finally went against her conscience and accepted the mirror.

If it were just Gard and his two other sisters, even if she said nothing, the people in the caravan would agree to let them stay.

Because Brother Gard is very strong, everyone who knows Brother Gard knows that the safety of the caravan can be guaranteed if Brother Gard is with them.

But besides her brother Gard, she also had to take so many "refugees" with her, which was beyond the control of a mere caravan guard.

With so many people, the caravan probably couldn't even afford to cover the food and drink expenses alone.

But with treasure, things will definitely be different.

If they could exchange treasures for more food and resources, everyone in the caravan would certainly be willing to endure hunger for a period of time before reaching the large tribe.

The lizard girl, Laya, clearly misunderstood Gard's reason for wanting the caravan to take Rhine Lab's group along, because she secretly glanced at the tail of the older sister named Seria.

It's so thin!

Only having a thick, large tail like Brother Gard's is proof of being well-nourished and strong.

Then she saw Gard's tail, which had a small section missing.

"Brother Gard, what happened to your tail?"

"Ugh, don't even mention it. I don't know which bastard was specifically targeting my tail and biting it. It'll probably take a while for it to grow back."

Gard sighed, but Laya breathed a sigh of relief when she heard it.

It's good that it can grow back, it's good that it can grow back.

"By the way, do you want that meat outside? It's been drying in the sun for so long, I wonder if it's gone bad."

Seemingly having thought of something, Gard led Laya in another direction.

Because of the sand dunes, Raia didn't notice when she arrived.

When Gard brought her over, she discovered that on the other side of the sandcastle lay an enormous dragon corpse, enough to keep them fed for who knows how long.

"Brother Gard, are all of these for us?"

"Ah."

Gard shook his head helplessly.

"It's not good for us to eat too much meat."

Although Gard is fine eating this meat, the Rhine Lab's staff would probably not be able to handle it if they ate too much; the toxins contained in these dragon meats are no joke.

"I...I'll go and call everyone in the caravan!"

Seeing this enormous dragon corpse, Laya seemed to see a future where the tribe would not lack food for many days.

"I'll go with you."

Gard instructed a group of officers to remain on guard, while he followed Laya toward the caravan.

"Oh, right."

As if remembering something, Laya said in a slightly excited tone, "Brother Gard, our caravan found a strange person on the road who is short and thin, just like the tribesmen you are leading."

Laya initially wanted to describe the person the caravan found as short, thin, and ugly, but in the end, she chose to use a different description.

"People like Serea and the others?"

Knowing the aesthetic preferences of the native inhabitants of this land, such as Laya, Gard even thought it wouldn't be surprising if Laya considered Seria and Kanelian ugly.

After all, we are of different races.

If it weren't for Gard's aesthetic sense, which is still human aesthetic sense, Gard felt that he could definitely blend in well with these tribal people of the land.

You know, back in this hot country, he's a real heartthrob!

However, this hot land is not a place for humans to live. Only the natives of this hot land, like Laya, can get used to the harsh environment here.

Gard followed Laya and then, at the foot of a small sand dune, he saw the caravan Laya had mentioned.

Incidentally, they also saw the tribe that Laya had mentioned, the same tribe as Seria and the others.

A girl with fiery red short hair, tattered clothes, and a sullen face, who looked unapproachable at first glance, stood alone in the corner, carrying a large sword that was taller than her.

“We can’t understand what she’s saying, and we don’t know why she’s here. Maybe she’s been separated from her people.”

Laya said softly.

"But she has a pronunciation that sounds like her name."

“Sher...Tel..."

That's what she said.

......

Chapter 71 Gard, your 42-year-old grandmother is coming to kill you! 4/45

Syl...Tel?

42-year-old grandma!?

How did she end up in a place like this?

No, wait, thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem strange at all.

As someone with amnesia who has seen mountains, snow, tall buildings, and wilderness, and even encountered the ocean and sea monsters, it's not surprising that I visited the Foenorian Hot Land before losing my memory, is it?

However, what if Surtr is also suffering from amnesia now?

Gard simply extended his hand in greeting: "Hi, old..."

Before he could even speak, Laya dragged him away.

"Brother Mukaka, Sister Jiajiania, look who I've met!"
