Although Mcgee really wanted to erect a tombstone for every member, there were simply too many corpses and remains in the Alliance.
He could only bury Meng Tian’s corpse and then erect a large tombstone with the names of the brave warriors of the Alliance engraved on it.
“Anyone who survives in the world of familiars and does not give up hope is a brave warrior.” Mcgee was not a priest, nor did he know how to comfort the undead. He only felt that standing in front of the warrior’s grave, he should say something…and so he muttered.
Now, even his home had been destroyed, and his last hope of survival had disappeared. According to the rules of the game, without a home, it was impossible to obtain the final victory.
More importantly, without the protection of the castle, it meant that Mcgee could only live in the wild, and could be attacked by familiars at any time.
He first found a cave to hide from the pouring rain.
Fortunately, he still had the ice and snow emblem on him, so he would not lose his temperature and faint after being caught in the rain.
[System, can you mark the location of my familiar for me?]
The system did not respond to Mcgee’s request, which meant that the request could not be fulfilled.
Therefore, Mcgee changed the method of request.
[Please mark the location of the elite-tier familiar for me.]
The system had its own set of judging rules. In order to encourage players to challenge their limits, the elite-tier monsters would usually be marked on the third map.
After Mcgee made this request, the complete map of the world of familiars appeared in his mind again.
At the location of the ancient battlefield, there was a huge purple dot of light. Without a doubt, that was the location of the Eastern Dragon.
Beside him were four dots of light, blue, green, purple, and red. They were second only to him.
Mcgee’s heart skipped a beat when he saw this.
If the Eastern Dragon had not found a new teammate, it meant that his familiar was currently around the Eastern Dragon.
“Are they going to fight the Eastern Dragon?” Mcgee knew that the Little Spirit Fox would definitely not admit defeat. He knew that there were monsters as powerful as the Eastern Dragon in the world. They would definitely go and challenge it.
However, they were still some distance away from each other. It did not look like they were fighting at all.
At this moment, Mcgee noticed that there was a small blue dot near the Alliance. He decided to go to the blue dot to meet this elite monster.
Opening the system store, Mcgee began to look for items that could be exchanged. Originally, the store could be exchanged for many types of items, including various energy stones and tools. However, with the collapse of his main city, he could only exchange for the most basic stones, wood, and other materials.
Mcgee only wanted to find something that could shelter him from the wind and rain. After all, if he wore armor during a thunderstorm, he would easily be struck by lightning. Mcgee took a look. It was raining heavily outside, and he did not know when it would stop. Should he take the risk to go out and explore?
After searching for a round of useless things, Mcgee continued searching and finally found a very special item.
[Wooden house blueprint]
[Level 1]
[Used to create the most basic wooden house for survival.]
[Materials required: 1000 wood, 1000 stone]
He remembered that when he was playing the game in the past, if the main city was accidentally destroyed, the farmers would be left behind. In order to prevent players from giving up hope, the construction method of the main city would appear in the farmers’ construction column.
It was just like the current situation.
Naturally, Mcgee would not keep the wood and stones on him. However, there were countless materials in the Alliance waiting for him to excavate.
As long as he had the wooden house, he would be able to create basic tools and also be able to subdue subdued beasts.
Thinking of this, Mcgee’s desperate heart finally lit up with a glimmer of hope.
He sat beside the bonfire and fell asleep. He was not in the base right now, so he could not sleep without any precautions.
Therefore, he hung a bell at the entrance of the cave. As soon as a familiar came out, it would shake the bell and woke Mcgee up.
“Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring.”
The rapid ringing of the bell woke Mcgee up from his sleep.
Mcgee took out his sword and immediately jumped up, making a battle pose. However, he did not see any familiar appear in front of him.
“Is it the wind?” Mcgee saw that the bell was still ringing. A strong wind was blowing outside, blowing into the cave from time to time.
“Strange.”
Normally, only the connected places would have wind blowing in, and there was a huge rock behind Mcgee.
At most, it would be raining. How could there be such a strong wind?
Mcgee immediately reacted. It was a wind-type familiar attacking him, and there was no doubt that he was outside the cave.
Mcgee took the Dragon Slaying Sword to the entrance of the cave, and saw a huge bird supporting it in the sky.
It was none other than the Gale Bird.
“Little Wind!” Mcgee saw that he definitely recognized it. It was the Gale Bird. He was very excited.
The Gale Bird was not attacking Mcgee. It was attacking the water wolves below because they were trying to use the wind and rain as a cover to sneak attack the baby of the Gale Bird.
The Gale Bird also saw Mcgee, but it did not recognize him at the beginning.
“It’s me, Little Wind.”
The Gale Bird obviously lost a lot of memories.
When it lost its soul contract, its memories of being with mcgee had also disappeared. This was a mechanism that familiars used to protect themselves from their emotions.
However, the soul imprint usually disappeared after the host died. When Mcgee went to another world and appeared in front of him again, the imprint left behind only a slight loosening.
The Gale Bird suddenly stopped attacking and stopped in the air.
The Water Wolves had discovered Mcgee’s existence. If the young Gale Bird was not easy to sneak attack from the trees, Mcgee was a piece of meat waiting to be slaughtered.
Therefore, they turned their target to Mcgee. They did not even need to work as a team. The five Water Wolves turned to Mcgee from five directions. As long as they could bite his neck, they could subdue him and eat him.
Obviously, the Water Wolves made their attack arrangements based on their judgment of strength.
Unfortunately, they picked the wrong opponent. Mcgee killed them all in a few moves. Strangely, after Mcgee made his move, there was no body of the Water Wolves left on the ground. Instead, they turned into pieces of meat and entered Mcgee’s s.p.a.ce bag.
“What’s going on?” Mcgee was very confused about this discovery. In the past, he had to cut the meat himself. Now, as long as he killed his opponent, he could turn into meat and enter his backpack automatically, which saved him a lot of work time.
To prove his guess, Mcgee picked up a stone from the ground.
It was an ordinary stone. To turn it into a stone that could be used to make equipment and buildings, it needed to be processed and ground flat.
Mcgee used the Dragon Slaying Sword to cut the stone into two halves, and then the stone disappeared.
A stone appeared in his backpack.
“The Dragon Slaying Sword has the function of automatically disintegrating the target it kills?” Mcgee was delighted.
The Dragon Slaying Sword was much more useful in the survival world than any other weapon.
For now, it was better to resolve the matter at hand.
Mcgee suddenly felt the Gale Bird’s consciousness, and the soul contract took effect again.
“Where have you been?”
