TODAG System In TODAG

Back in the Toxic Forest, everyone backed away when Lee sneezed while he cursed the one who talked about him...

This in turn made Nie Li sneezed back in the Glory City...

This was happening while avoiding the rain of poison arrows coming towards them and Lee looked at them like he was wrong...

It wasn't long that the rain finally stopped and Lee with the others although they could them the ones who attacked them they couldn't well see them exactly...

But now that they could Lee thought that their appearances match the nomads he knew...

A nomad is a member of a community without fixed habitation which regularly moves to and from the same areas.

Such groups include hunter-gatherers, pastoral nomads owning livestock and tinkers or trader nomads.

Nomadic hunting and gathering—following seasonally available wild plants and game—is by far the oldest human subsistence method.

Pastoralists raise herds, driving or accompanying in patterns that normally avoid depleting pastures beyond their ability to recover.

Nomadism is also a lifestyle adapted to infertile regions such as steppe, tundra, or ice and sand, where mobility is the most efficient strategy for exploiting scarce resources.

For example, many groups living in the tundra are reindeer herders and are semi-extra nomadic, following forage for their animals.

Sometimes also described as "nomadic" are the various itinerant populations who move among densely populated areas to offer specialized services crafts or trades to their residents—external consultants, for example.

These groups are known as "peripatetic nomads".

And from what he could tell they all belong to different groups as they dressed differently with each other...

So that means either a different department or different tribes...

Lee : "That was a nice welcome you showed us there...."

Hearing Lee's words they didn't move, they didn't even look at each other eyes wondering what to do...

They simply stared at them as if staring at prey yet they didn't move as their attacks were ineffective against them...

Soon they heard ruffles coming from the bushes ahead of them and a few Old Men made their crude appearance as they were ugly...

Old Man : "What business do you have in our lair??"

Lee : "Oh?? You do know how to talk." .

No one reacted as Lee spoke and they all waited for the one who first spoke to order them and this talked volumes to Lee and his girls that he must be someone high ranking or the leader here...

Lee : "Well our business is actually a tour in this world as we would like to see and learn as much as we can before we pass away..."

Lee : "I'm sure you yourself know that with lurking dangers out there, the more you are prepared, the more your people will survive no??"

Finally, there was a reaction to the Old Man's eyes but quickly returned to normal as he pondered while his eyes still looking at Lee...

Old Man : "The only thing you will learn here is recipes of the Old Ones..."

Old Man : "Recipes that can make simply men fight against beasts and healed them as they are inflicted from wounds both in body and soul."

Old Man : "Someone of your powers that can easily kill all of us, I fail to see how you will pass away."

Lee : "That's impressive, to actually realise this however I wasn't lying neither I was being truthful."

Lee : "While we won't pass away when our powers reach a certain threshold, we will leave this world for one with stronger individuals and stronger beasts..."

Lee : "Thus we are looking for ways that our friends and families here can survive the contact fights against the beasts."

Lee : "We came here cause though we had heard of this place called Toxic Forest by our folks, no one has managed to explore it..."

The old man and the rest were silent leaving the one that seemed to be their leader to decide their next course of actions...

After what seemed to be an eternity the Old Man spoke again...

Old Man : "You teach us, we'll teach you..."

With that, he raised his right hand and all of them withdrew their weapons and hurridly vanished from the branches of the trees as they made way towards their settlement...

Lee : "That is fair..."

Hearing their exchange the girls sighed while Yang Xin even went as far to shrug her shoulders as he knew he would be responsible for teaching them...

Lee and the rest were then guided through the dense forest that seemed like a maze and many parts looked dangerously to approach but that wasn't applying to them...

When they finally reached the settlement they were shocked to see only camps with tents and bȧrėly any basic need they were used to in their high life in the city...

Of course, the one who was the most excited was Raphtalia who everything was new to her...

Every experience was a new joy...

After arranging a tent created by bamboos and leaves large enough to fit the five of them inside, they were soon called for the welcoming opening to this settlement...

Lee laughed wryly on his mind as it was truly the basics, a campfire frying meat and everyone dancing around it with no set of movements while they were offered something akin to wine...

Though they didn't expect much as their expressions told many things, Lee and Raphtalia were actually expecting a lot...

That was because Lee knew that the more something looks simple, the more you will get mind blown once you taste it...

While Raphtalia was a kid everything seemed nice to her...

And true enough hours later of being in the same position as they enjoyed fruits and wine they were served the best meat they had eaten in their lives....
