Chapter Seventy-Eight: The First Victim
Wang Le's follower Wei Ming's team marched in Jinshan, but no trace was found along the way, and there was no danger at present.
So for the time being, everyone was relatively relaxed, and Wang Le didn't notice anything, but he didn't even feel the figure of some nocturnal animals, as if all the creatures in the entire mountain area had disappeared.
Although there is no danger at the moment, everything is very quiet, but Wang Le always feels that these things are not so simple, because it is too quiet here, and the quiet is a little weird.
Suddenly, at this time, a black shadow flashed in front of Wang Le and their team, the speed was very fast, and it passed in an instant, and the soldiers were also nervous, raising their guns in points, and keeping vigilant.
"Everyone be careful! All personnel are on alert!" Wei Ming suddenly reminded nervously
The fighters began to form a circle, trying to turn them into a circular defensive circle.
Wang Le pulled out the long knife, concentrated, improved his facial features, and felt the wind and grass around him.
Wang Le raised his sense of smell to the extreme, trying to find something in it, but unfortunately, there was no strange smell.
However, Wang Le heard some squirming sounds, and the sound seemed to be coming from afar, slowly approaching them, but Wang Le didn't notice anything unusual around him.
"Ah---h
A scream came, and it was the voice of a warrior.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and they found that half of the screaming warrior had been dragged to the ground, and then he was screaming heartbreakingly, as if his body was constantly separating.
"Pull it up!" Wei Ming shouted.
When the warriors heard this, they immediately went to pull the warrior, but the harder they used the force below, the warrior couldn't stand the pain and fainted.
Wang Le rushed up with a brisk step, and directly inserted a knife into the ground, although he was not sure if he had hit, but at least he could interfere with it, sure enough, after his blow, the movement below gradually disappeared, but when he pulled out the knife, he did not see blood, indicating that Wang Le did not hit the target, but let the other party run away.
By the time they pulled the warrior up, he was only half of his body left, and the bottom was gone, and the viscous blood and internal organs were dripping to the ground the moment they pulled them up.
Everyone was terrified, they didn't expect the monster to attack from the ground, and they didn't expect that they would sacrifice a team member as soon as they encountered the monster.
Wang Le was also very shocked, he didn't notice the underground situation just now, because he had never encountered it, he only focused all his attention on the land, and didn't notice the situation below at all.
Wei Ming's eyes couldn't help but dim when he saw the soldier's bloody appearance, but he was the leader of the team and had to take the lead, so he couldn't show too much emotion now.
"Take his badge and we'll move on. Wei Ming said, his voice trembling a little.
The soldiers did not speak, but silently took off the military badge of the sacrificed soldier, their eyes became a lot darker, and their hearts began to become restless.
Originally, they all thought that this might be a check on entering the mountain, and nothing would happen, but they didn't expect to sacrifice one not long after they came in, it was difficult for them to imagine what would happen next, and a trace of fear began to arise in their hearts, but even if they were afraid, they still had to continue to persevere, after all, if they retreated, who would stop these monsters in the future.
Wang Le's face darkened, he glanced at the dead soldiers on the ground, his heart couldn't calm down for a long time, it was the first time he had seen a person die in front of him, this feeling was very uncomfortable, as if he couldn't do anything.
"Let's move on, the smell of blood here is too strong, and staying here is sure to attract other monsters. Wang Le said with a dark face.
Wei Ming gritted his teeth: "Damn, I must catch one back tonight!"
After a simple mourning, the warriors embarked on the road of exploration again, in fact, the goal of their mission tonight is not very clear, saying that they are here to investigate whether there are these monsters in Jinshan, but now that the monsters have appeared, and they have also killed a warrior, then they are considered to have completed the task, it is not counted, they have to continue to move forward, find these monsters, and help them all clear.
In the next journey, there are no monsters encountered for the time being, but everyone's mood is a little low, and they are a little afraid of the unknown, but they have now put themselves in a completely tense state, always alert to the wind and grass around them.
Because it is night, and the jungle in the mountains is relatively dense, so the vision becomes a little blurred, even if you wear a night vision device, you can only see the range of about 10 meters, and no matter how many places you can't see clearly, so everyone is afraid of everything 10 meters away, and they are afraid that they will be the next person to die.
Wang Le, who has the best eyesight in the crowd, can be said to have the widest range of vision, so he can see the farthest, and the surrounding trees and stone piles can be seen clearly, and sometimes you can even see traces of blood on some trees.
"Can we get out of here alive?" Standing in the dark jungle, the silence of the emptiness made one of the warriors in the team begin to think about it, and even began to doubt whether he could survive.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Those monsters don't mean to go head-to-head with me, that is, they are afraid that they won't be able to deal with it head-on, so we just need to be careful not to be attacked, what are you afraid of, you really have to be hard-faced, and it is not certain who loses and who wins. Another tall soldier tried to comfort him in the crowd, but he was also a little worried.
"Team Wei, have we been searching aimlessly like this?" Wang Le looked at Wei Ming, he was now the captain, so Wang Le's name towards him had also changed.
Wei Ming thought for a moment, and then said: "There is no clue target and we have no way, according to the situation just now, some of these monsters can drill into the ground, so they are found on the road." ”
"These monsters are in animal form, but they speak human language. Wang Le said.
"Can speak human language?"
Wei Ming asked, "You mean they will speak our language?"
"Because I've seen it with my own eyes, it's very likely that they have human traits, they can turn into monsters or humans, but like monsters, they have bloodthirsty and hunting traits. Wang Le said.
Wei Ming nodded, and then said, "Then you say, how should we go about finding these monsters? Since you said that they are human, then their wisdom is far beyond that of ordinary beasts and animals, and we are even more difficult to find." ”
"Although their intelligence is the same as that of humans, and even if they are human, even so, they can't ask for the characteristics of animals, as long as they become orcs, then they will definitely have the habits of these animals. Wang Le said.
"Orcs, that's what you call them?" Wei Ming asked.
"Yes, after my deference, these monsters may be like the werewolves in the movies we watched before, they can be both human and bloodthirsty monsters. ”
Wang Le said: "Animals have a characteristic, they will not directly attack a large number of animals head-on, even if the combat effectiveness of these animals is very weak, they will not, this is out of an instinct to protect themselves, so there will be so many, the situation of the missing crowd, we are now in a crowd, unless they also have a large number of the same kind together, otherwise, we can't meet a single orc at all." ”
"You have to know that the senses of animals are very keen, it can be said that they are about a hundred times that of humans, so we act like this, and it doesn't take long for them to find out that they will not appear easily out of animal instinct, unless it is a monster that can act underground like before, but even so, they will only sneak attack and not attack head-on. ”
Wei Ming thought for a moment, and then said, "Then what do you mean?"
