Don't Starve, my items can be upgraded

Chapter 26: Strange Safety Zone
"Yeah, I'll pull the camel beast."

Peng Min immediately took the initiative to pull the camel's reins.

She was seen pulling hard in front, and the camel, which was originally eating the tree trunk peacefully, let out an unhappy cry, and then took a step forward to follow.

This made Yang Chen secretly breathe a sigh of relief, as long as the camel beast could be taken away.

Because they were used to going out at night and felt insecure, the two of them did not plan to ride the camel directly to continue their journey.

The camel's back is too high and too conspicuous, making it an easy target.

Even though Yang Chen is now an evolver, he knows his own situation. His defense is very weak and he can be easily hit if attacked by surprise.

While hurrying on his way, he continued to strengthen the [Ruyi Zhenkong Pearl].

It is impossible for the nail gun to rely on itself for the time being. Without the help of external energy, it would be difficult to upgrade one level even in three days and three nights.

In addition, the power of the nail gun is enough for the time being, and what he lacks most right now is defense.

Ruyi Zhenkongzhu just meets the requirements.

So he chose to upgrade this bead first.

As long as the level of Ruyi Zhenkongzhu is upgraded, not only the storage space will increase, but the self-protection ability will also be greatly enhanced when encountering danger.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

The head of the Zhou family kept running away with his wife and a group of guards. Because they ran too fast, the number of guards behind them became fewer and fewer, and even the number of people chasing them became fewer and fewer.

He wanted to go back and kill all those damned wild people evolvers several times, but his body would not obey him and he continued to run wildly holding his wife.

Even at the end, when there were only two people left chasing them, he still felt that there might be a conspiracy and did not dare to fight back.

This scene made Jin Lun and Huang Ling, who were chasing frantically from behind, feel outrageous.

In the past, they were very afraid of people in the safe zone. They felt that people in the safe zone possessed various thermal weapons and there were also a large number of evolvers, which was very scary.

But now when they started fighting, they found that the people in the safe zone were like eggshells and would break with just a poke.

The opponent's overall strength was clearly far superior to theirs, yet they were chased and killed so badly that they felt like they were dreaming.

Finally, the two chased for more than thirty kilometers.

Just when we were about to catch up, we suddenly discovered another migrating group appeared.

That migrating group also came from the direction of the Gobi Desert, and their number was also over a thousand.

The people they were chasing immediately went to join the migrating group.

Immediately afterwards, intensive artillery shells bombarded.

"Damn it!"

"Go back first."

Both of them were very unwilling, but they could only retreat strategically.

……

"Hey, isn't this Patriarch Zhou? Why is he so embarrassed?"

In the Yang family's migration team, the head of the Yang family, who was also dressed elegantly, showed an undisguised expression of gloating: "You were actually chased by a group of low-class people. You are so embarrassed. Since you are in such a miserable state, I will not accept your support fee."

The head of the Zhou family was so angry that his face turned red, but he couldn't get angry because others really helped him after all.

Because he was worried about being ambushed, he ran too fast, so only about a dozen guards caught up with him.

Of course, not all the rest died, they just ran away.

Even if they were ordinary people, he felt that not all of them should have died. As long as he went back to gather them, he should be able to find quite a few of them.

Therefore, the Zhou family has not completely collapsed.

"Huh? What happened to Madam Zhou?"

Suddenly, the head of the Yang family asked again in surprise: "Where is the little guy Zhou Yinhe? You love your son like your life, but you didn't bring that little guy with you. Could it be that the little guy was killed by the untouchables? No way?"

Seeing that Patriarch Zhou just had a cold face and didn't say anything, the gloating look on his face suddenly faded a lot: "Patriarch Zhou, I'm so sad."

It would be impolite to continue gloating over other people's misfortune.

If this old guy gets angry, he won't be able to resist because his ability is not for combat.

"For your help today, Zhou will come to thank you one day. Goodbye."

The head of the Zhou family did not waste time here. Seeing that the two "desperate criminals" who were chasing them had left, he hurried back to gather his men.

But before leaving, he kindly reminded the head of the Yang family: "Be careful of the deserters."

"Master, are the barbarians really that powerful?"

After Patriarch Zhou led his men away, someone in the Yang family's migration team couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know." The head of the Yang family said thoughtfully: "The barren people themselves are not worth mentioning, but the premise is not to let them unite."

"Will the deserters unite?"

The person asking the question said in disbelief, "It doesn't seem possible, does it?"

"That's why I said, I don't know."

The head of the Yang family continued to speculate: "You all know Zhou Yinhe's character. He is unscrupulous and extremely hates the barren people. If I am not mistaken, the little guy may have done something absurd and caused the anger of the barren people."

If not for this, he would find it hard to imagine how a group of completely disorganized people could make the entire Zhou family's migration team so miserable.

The person asking the question couldn't help but show surprise: "How ridiculous would that be to cause the anger of the barbarians?"

"But considering Zhou Yinhe's style, maybe he can actually do it."

This person then asked, "Master, are we going to Kunwu's territory? It's not far from here."

"Since it's on the way, I naturally have to go and take a look and buy some supplies by the way."

The head of the Yang family changed his previous casual attitude and said with a little solemnity: "The disaster of the shadow of the gods has a huge impact. We still have a long way to go. Moreover, we must be prepared for the situation encountered by the Zhou family."

"We, the Yang family, will never do such a ridiculous thing and anger all the barbarians." The people around him said immediately.

There were also many barbarians following behind them. Although their eyes looked annoying, they were far from being aggressive enough to kill them.

"This is not something you and I can decide."

The head of the Yang family said in a deep voice: "If my guess is true, those angry deserters may transfer their anger to us, thinking that the people in the safe zone are all the same. Anyway, let's be on the safe side."

……

In order to prevent misunderstanding from the team of evolvers in front, Yang Chen and Peng Min slowed down a lot.

They followed the group of people while sharing the wolf jerky.

It was almost dark when a huge safe zone finally appeared in their sight.

"There's actually a safe zone here?"

Peng Min looked surprised.

More than ten kilometers ahead, I saw an almost completely transparent barrier completely covering the foot of the mountain.

Yang Chen was also very surprised: "Although it is far from being comparable to the Huyan Safety Zone, it is also much larger than the average small safety zone. Maybe it was built as an underground shelter."

"Are the people in the underground shelter about to come out?" Peng Min wondered.

"It's hard to say. Those who have lived underground for such a long time may not be willing to return to the surface, but..."

Yang Chen said with a serious expression: “If that so-called disaster can even threaten the underground shelter, then that’s another story.”

Suddenly, Peng Min also became serious, feeling a little panicked and a little sad and angry.

Their lives had just gotten better, but they had to face an unknown disaster again, which made her feel very uncomfortable and unwilling.

Yang Chen glanced at the steel ball in his hand:

[Ruyi Zhenkongzhu lv.8: 71% (Ruyi size: contains an independent space with a diameter of 22 cm...; cannot be upgraded)]

Twenty-two centimeters, not too small.

During this half day, he has roughly figured out several ways to use the Ruyi Zhenkong Pearl.

In addition to the storage function, it can be shot out instantly by controlling it with the mind, and it can quickly grow in size during the process of shooting out.

This method of use is mainly used to defend or counterattack the enemy, such as hitting people, etc. As long as the distance shot does not exceed ten times the diameter of the internal space, it can be quickly recalled.

Another method is to allow it to expand instantly to the diameter of the internal space after it is shot out, thus producing the effect of vibrating the space.

However, the effect of vibrating space does not produce much destructive power.

The purpose of that fleeting ripple is still unknown.

There is also a third way to use it, which is to throw it directly at people.

When the steel ball is in the hand, it is of its original size and average weight, but in the process of throwing it, its weight increases rapidly as its volume increases, bringing about huge inertia.

However, this method of use currently does not have much power and is far less effective than directly attacking with a nail gun.

But in the future when the level is higher and it can become bigger, the power will definitely be terrifying.

"There are more people here." said Peng Min, who was leading the camel nearby.

Indeed, when you get here, you can often see scavenger teams returning from hunting.

And the scavenger teams here are generally more... decent than the scavenger teams wandering the Gobi Desert?
In short, they are dressed better, their skin is relatively whiter, and they are not as skinny.

This is true even for ordinary scavengers.
