Chapter 0589: Under the anomaly
Seeing that the three of them looked so solemn, Milne couldn't help but feel empty: "Then let's change places and rest." ”
It's just a change of place to rest, and it won't lose a piece of meat, so he naturally doesn't need to object.
So the four of them filled the kettle and left the place quickly.
Lei Ye, who was thousands of miles away, happened to receive a letter from Rolsson at this time, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that the letter said that Bennett had broken through to the epic realm.
Looking at the next content, he couldn't help frowning: "Why did Hamilton go to the Ambrizet Mountains?
No matter how big his brain is, he still can't understand this brain-dead behavior.
If Queen Rosa had been here, she might have understood what that meant.
Two kilometers after leaving the waterhole, the four of them found a gravel area to rest.
There are no shrubs around, the view is wide, and the land is dry, making it a good place to camp and rest.
The four of them took out the things they used for camping from the space ring, had a simple dinner, assigned the vigil task, and went to rest.
The night was quiet, and because of the colder weather, the sound of insects was rarely heard, and occasionally the roar of wild beasts was heard, and it was also far away from them.
Milne frowned, fiddling with the fire in front of him, looking up from time to time, showing the tension in his heart.
Ever since he saw the footprints, he felt a little uneasy, as if something bad was about to happen.
He hadn't been scared before, but now it was pitch black, the moonlight was obscured by the clouds, and no one had spoken or talked, so fear slowly enveloped his heart.
Are they really werewolf footprints? Don't think about it! Werewolves are just legendary creatures!
He is constantly cranky, constantly self-denying.
However, the more this happened, the more nervous he became.
Eventually, Milne had to rely on the spirits he brought with him to strengthen his courage.
Two sips of high liquor go down to the stomach, and the spicy feeling goes straight to the heart.
After about ten minutes, the strength of the wine surged, the panic in his heart was slightly reduced, and his mind was no longer cranky.
I flipped through a newspaper and read the news by the firelight, so as to pass the boring time.
At that moment, there was a sudden rustling sound in the bushes in the distance, as if something was moving rapidly in it.
Milne's pupils contracted suddenly, and he quickly stood up on guard, staring in the direction where the voice came from, and his right hand unconsciously clenched the saber at his waist.
Because there is no moonlight in the mountains and forests, it is dark all around, so you can't see anything.
He slowly approached the fire, slowly bending down to pick up two burning sticks and slamming them into the place where the sound came.
By the faint light of the fire, he saw a pair of green eyes.
The long sword hanging from his waist was immediately pulled out more than two inches, and the muscles in his body were as hard as stones.
However, the other party was obviously more nervous than him, and the moment the fire stick hit the ground, he turned around directly and began to escape.
Milne finally saw the other party's true face, and it was actually a narrow-clawed beast with very little courage.
He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and scolded softly: "Bastard, I'm scared to death." ”
So saying, he put his sword back into its sheath, sat down again by the fire, and filled it with some firewood.
The narrow-clawed beast is a monster endemic to the Ambrizet Mountains, resembling a pangolin several sizes larger.
They are diurnal, feed on plants and insects, have a gentle temper, do not actively attack other creatures, and have a high IQ.
The narrow-clawed beast must have come out to forage for food, and stumbled here.
Thinking of this, Milne shook his head helplessly, amused by his rumors.
However, just when he thought it was just a false alarm, a shrill squeak suddenly came from the place where the narrow-clawed beast had disappeared, as if a large mouse had been ravaged under the paws of a house cat.
He looked over again, and with the faint glow of the unburned firewood, he saw a large monster crawling in the bushes, tearing at something.
The monster was visibly hunched, but its back was still peeking out from the bushes more than a meter high.
Milne's hands began to tremble uncontrollably, and he slowly retreated towards the tent where the other three were sleeping, trying not to make any noise for fear of attracting the attention of the monster.
He hadn't taken a few steps back when he hit something in the back.
He was in such a state of extreme panic that he could barely scream.
Fortunately, the man behind him quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth, so he didn't make a sound.
Bennett whispered in Milne's ear, "Don't make a sound. ”
Hearing this, Milne's body slowly relaxed.
He turned his head to look behind him, and saw Hamilton and Grant standing behind Bennett, nervously guarded.
Bennett let go of his hand, clenched the saber at his waist, and said in a deep voice, "Get behind me." ”
Without saying a word, Milne ran behind him in three steps and two steps, standing side by side with Hammiton and Grant.
He swallowed hard and whispered, "What do you think that's that?"
In fact, he already had a definite answer in his heart, but he still wanted to hear a different answer from his companions.
However, the reality is always disappointing, and Grant, with a tense face and an effort to suppress his trembling arms, whispered, "I guess it's a werewolf." ”
Hammidon rolled his throat, glanced at the two people beside him, and said apologetically, "I'm very sorry that I brought you into such a dangerous situation. ”
Milne and Grant looked at each other, both smiling wryly.
It is certainly impossible to say that they have no complaints in their hearts, but now that danger has come, it is too late to say anything, and there is only the same hatred and hatred.
Seeing that the two did not speak, Hamilton spoke again: "If we can get away with making it back alive, I will do my best to compensate you." ”
Hearing this, the resentment in Milne and Grant's hearts was mostly reduced, they used to do this knife and lick blood business, but they didn't want to live more and more.
I just enjoyed two years of peace, and I began to be afraid of death, and if my companions listened to it, they must not be squeezed to death.
Grant smiled and shook his head: "I can have today all thanks to Governor Renard's care, it's time to repay his kindness, I'll cover later, you can leave quickly when you see the opportunity." ”
Milne glanced at the other party and said, "I am a soldier now, and it is the duty of a soldier to die in battle. ”
Hearing this, Han Midon shook his head very solemnly: "I'll hold him back later, and you leave as soon as possible." ”
As soon as the words fell, I heard Bennett's voice from the front: "The other party is gone." ”
What?
The three people who were originally righteous and awe-inspiring looked in the direction of the monster at the same time, and they were dumbfounded.
It's empty at this time, where are the monsters?
They couldn't help but look at each other, with doubt, embarrassment, and respect on their faces.
