Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely
Chapter 54 - 54 Revised 54 Bodies Everywhere Please Follow!

54: Revised: Chapter 54 Bodies Everywhere [Please Follow!] 54: Revised: Chapter 54 Bodies Everywhere [Please Follow!] Luo Ming’s willingness to follow Xia Hong back could be considered initial trust in him.

What Xia Hong needed was actually just this bit of trust.

What he wanted was simply for Luo Ming to go back to the camp and take a look.

If nothing happened at Rogel Camp, that would be best, and he also hoped so.

While hurrying on the road, Xia Hong asked Luo Ming some questions, and after a thorough understanding, he realized where the animosity from Li Hu came from.

Earlier, Hong Mu’s discussions had already made Li Hu angry enough to hit people, and coincidentally, Xia Hong brought up being tricked by the Wooden Puppet Monster four times.

So it turned out that what he just said hit a sore spot.

Nonetheless, Xia Hong shook his head slightly, feeling a bit disdainful toward Li Hu.

Before coming here, upon hearing of Beishuo Town’s scale of a hundred thousand people, Xia Hong had some expectations of Yang Ning and Li Hu who came from there.

After all, the more strong people in a place, the safer the human living environment and the higher the civilization level should be.

In such a cruel world as the Ice Abyss, a place like that should be equivalent to a lighthouse for humanity.

People coming out of the lighthouse should not be bad at all.

But after listening to Luo Ming’s description, it was clearly not the case.

This Li Hu was not only narrow-minded, irritable, and angry but also looked down on people, being arrogant as if one with many bad habits.

Of course, Xia Hong wouldn’t think that everyone in Beishuo Town was like this.

For example, Luo Ming apparently had a good impression of Yang Ning and had words of praise for him.

“It seems that even though the world is different, human nature remains universal; the idea that ‘it takes all sorts to make a world’ applies anywhere.

In a large settlement with more than 100,000 people like Beishuo Town, it’s normal to have a mix of good and bad.”

This also somewhat disenchanted Xia Hong about the so-called Beishuo Town in advance.

“Leader Xia, are you at the Earth-digging Realm?”

This sentence was asked by Luo Ming with a shocking tone.

After running in the snow for so long, he just realized that, unlike others at the Logging Realm, who were trailing behind a hundred meters away, Xia Hong had always been by his side.

The improvement in Basic Strength represents a comprehensive enhancement of physical fitness, significantly elevating one’s control over strength in all aspects, and the running speed in the snow is far beyond what Logging Realm can compare to.

He was able to keep up with himself, naturally representing that he also broke through to the Earth-digging Realm.

Xia Hong did not hide it, just nodded slightly.

Looking at Xia Hong’s unbelievably young face, Luo Ming took a deep breath, the shock in his heart even turning into suspicion.

It’s not that he has never seen someone as young as Xia Hong at the Earth-digging Realm.

Not to mention far away, Yang Ning and Li Hu are two living examples.

The problem is that around Redwood Ridge, and especially in a small camp like the Great Xia, it’s absolutely impossible.

No matter how extraordinary Xia Hong’s talent is, he would not be able to pass the hurdle of Cold Beast Meat.

Even if Rogel Camp has had a steady income of Cold Beast Meat over the years, it’s still not enough to nurture someone as young as Xia Hong at the Earth-digging Realm.

“Could this Xia Hong actually be that Wooden Puppet Monster in disguise?”

This thought arose in Luo Ming’s mind, and he glanced back at Xia Chuan, Yuan Cheng, and the other six at the Logging Realm, also looking unreasonably young.

He then cast a more wary eye on Xia Hong.

Seeing the change in Luo Ming’s expression, Xia Hong immediately realized what he was thinking.

Although he felt somewhat helpless inside, he still appreciated Luo Ming’s cautious character.

Truth be told, if it were a different group of people instead of themselves, Luo Ming having suspicions about the Wooden Puppet Monster wouldn’t be unreasonable.

“Leader Luo, let’s not overthink.

Let’s first return to the camp.

I am ninety percent certain that something unfortunate has already struck your camp!”

To prevent any unforeseen complications, Xia Hong still said a sentence, also as a kind of heads-up for Luo Ming.

Luo Ming naturally understood his implication, and his complexion changed slightly as his pace quickened significantly.

Soon enough, the two arrived ahead of everyone else at the mouth of the valley where Rogel Camp is located; the group following behind wasn’t actually far away and swiftly caught up.

Discovering that the pile of rubble and wood at the valley’s entrance was the same as when they left, without any changes, Luo Ming finally let out a sigh of relief.

But it was only temporary.

Luo Ming hurriedly circled the left side of the rubble pile and found the large round log blocking the entrance among a pile of rotten wood.

The round log was over five meters in diameter and more than fifty meters long, made of the heaviest Golden Frost Tree.

Normally, it would take several people to pull it out together, but Luo Ming has Earth-digging Realm strength, so he can do it by himself.

However, seeing Luo Ming was a bit struggling, Xia Hong went forward to help him pull it out together.

The other three people at the Earth-digging Realm from Rogel Camp also joined in.

With five people at the Earth-digging Realm, no matter how heavy that round log is, it would be nothing.

Thud…

The round log was pulled out straight and landed on the ground with a loud roar.

But as soon as the sound echoed, Xia Hong, Luo Ming, and everyone else present instantly changed their expressions.

Because the end of the round log leading into the camp was shockingly hung with six bloody arms, with a large area of scattered flesh and blood froth beside them.

“Something’s wrong, come with me quickly!”

This sentence was almost shouted by Luo Ming, whose face was full of fright as he rushed into the entrance in a single bound.

Behind him, the twenty-eight Earth-digging Realm and Logging Realm people from Rogel Camp, all changed their complexions drastically the same way and followed in.

Xia Hong’s complexion also changed drastically, but he didn’t rush in recklessly.

Instead, he first took out a piece of Solidified Fire Oil from his bosom and handed it to Xia Chuan.

“Chuan, don’t go inside.

Use the Solidified Fire Oil to coat the outside of the entrance thoroughly, then hold onto what’s left and stay here.

No matter who comes out, greet them with it right in the face.”

“Understood, Leader!”

“The rest of you, quickly come in with me.”

After saying this, Xia Hong also charged in with Yuan Cheng, Yue Feng, and the other five.

In fact, upon seeing those six bloody arms, Xia Hong already had an idea in his mind about the tragic scene inside the camp.

But when he truly set foot into the interior of Rogel Camp.

His scalp couldn’t help but tingle.

The ground was strewn with corpses…

Wherever he looked, there were bodies, and the ground at every step was smeared with blood.

The intense stench seemed to have gathered into a haze, drifting inside the valley.

Severed limbs were everywhere, with scattered pieces of flesh readily seen.

The bodies lying on the ground were not even whole.

Some had half their heads chopped off, others were severed at the waist into two halves, and some had their legs cut off and were still struggling on the ground…

These people varied in size, even including infants still suckling, but the infants’ vitality was clearly not as tenacious as adults; they were either beaten into a heap of flesh or cut into pieces by sharp tools.

The entire valley was filled with weak cries and wails, yet nowhere was there a single intact living person on the ground.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…”

Terror, grief, anger, guilt, madness, disbelief…

A multitude of emotions mixed together, and Luo Ming’s piercing scream instantly broke through the valley, resounding through the clouds.

Xia Hong took a deep breath, looking at Luo Ming and the others ahead, his eyes flashing with sympathy.

In Luo Ming’s long roar, others might not discern much.

But he, only heard the thick suffering and despair.

Just like Shi Qing, who had previously witnessed the campsite’s slaughter with his own eyes.
