Chapter 218: Accidents
Over time.
The emergence of the new world has had an increasing impact on all aspects of human society.
During this time.
Humanity's understanding of the new world is also becoming more and more comprehensive.
Regardless of the location on Earth, the lower the threat level assessment, the closer the colored vortex channel is to each other at the mouth of the New World Channel.
Conversely, the higher the threat level, the farther away from each other at the entrance of the New World Passage.
So, in fact, between the low-level threat passages that the major forces are focusing on exploring, they are very close to each other on the New World side. In fact, some forces have formed fixed ties between their strongholds in the New World.
The area of this new world that contains all low-threat passages is referred to as the 'Low Threat Zone'.
Outside of this area, it is tentatively named 'Unknown Territory'.
The New World was also named 'Savage World'.
In the Mid-Summer region.
The official unified naming of all low-level threat channel ports is very simple, directly from the No. 1 channel mouth to the No. 36 channel mouth.
As for other low-threat channel ports that have not yet been discovered, the naming after discovery is so on.
The same is almost true for other forces.
......
Passage 13 in the Black Continent region, on the Savage World side.
This passage is located in the southern part of the Low Threat Zone, where the Black Continent Alliance has established a small city.
However, due to the shallow background of the Black Continent Alliance on the earth, the low level of development, and the generally low standard of living, the number of humans who have entered the wild world is more, even if the city is small, the popularity is not low at all.
At this time.
Hundreds of kilometers away from the city, a hilly area.
A ten-man squad of knights belonging to the Black Continent Alliance is patrolling.
Their mission is to explore the new world, collect information on the distribution of plants, beasts, and the terrain of the environment.
At the same time, we are also looking for Yuanli medicinal materials, Yuanli minerals, etc.
There are many such knight squads.
Not only the Black Continent Alliance, but also other large lord forces, after the veil of the wild world was gradually lifted, they also sent many knights to explore this world.
No one can resist the temptation of the wild world.
Under such exploration, the harvest is also very large.
Including Yuanli specialties, medicinal materials, minerals, etc., have been discovered one after another.
As a result, the major powers also invested more knights into it.
This Black Continent Alliance knight team had received a considerable reward for discovering a low-level specialty before this. All the knights in the squad have received great benefits, and their respective strengths have risen rapidly, which makes the other knights extremely envious.
After tasting the sweetness, the team became more active in the exploration operation.
As time passed, the area around the city was almost overturned, and many opportunities were discovered, and it became more and more difficult to make a profit.
This time, in order to get a bigger reward, the captain of this team, Farryn, decided to go a little further.
Over a hill.
In front is a valley with lush vegetation and even a small lake in a beautiful setting.
Looking at everyone's slightly tired eyes, Farion thought for a moment and announced directly: "Rest on the spot in the valley and regain your strength." ”
"Oh, that's great!"
"It's finally time to rest!"
"Let's go, hurry!"
When they got the order, everyone was excited.
Even if you have mastered extraordinary strength, your physical strength has increased a lot compared to ordinary people, and it is not a perpetual motion machine.
In this crisis-ridden world, when there is no fighting, the fighting spirit needs to be maintained in full bloom and cannot consume a single penny, and must always be prepared for the unexpected. Since the early morning departure, everyone has walked hundreds of kilometers, and almost half of their physical strength has been consumed.
If you go any further, you will consume too much physical strength, which will also have a great impact on your combat effectiveness.
So, taking a break becomes a matter of course.
The group walked into the valley, and Farion arranged for two people to be on guard, while the others rested and recuperated, eating and drinking.
As for Farion himself, he went to the small lake to replenish the water.
Professionals are not gods, they are still flesh and blood beings, and they also need to eat and drink.
But at this time, the accident happened.
"Ahh
Before Farion could reach the lake, a scream suddenly rang out.
Everyone was stunned.
The voice was familiar, one of the team members who were in the same boat.
"It's Boggs!"
"He's in danger!"
Everyone reacted immediately, quickly picked up their weapons, and rushed towards the source of the sound.
"Damn it!"
When they rushed closer, their faces changed dramatically.
At this time, Boggs had already had a big hole in his body, blood flowing, and he couldn't see that he could live.
And the culprit is a huge pangolin beast.
"Kill it!"
The entire squad of knights was enraged.
Watching his friend die, no one can be at peace.
Farryn, in particular, blamed himself even more in his heart.
During the recuperation period, although he had arranged for someone to be on guard, no one could have predicted that a pangolin would suddenly emerge from the ground and pierce Boggs in a duel.
It's hard to prevent.
The cruelty of the new world is presented in front of everyone.
It's easy for them to lose a team member.
"Let's go up and kill it!"
Everyone grabbed their weapons, used their fighting spirit, and dispersed to besiege and kill the pangolin beast.
As a knight squad, they have been working together for a long time and are close together.
In particular, Farion, as the leader of the squad, cultivated higher, and held a broad-bladed greatsword, each sword was powerful and heavy, slashing at the pangolin's scale armor, sparks splashing and scales shattering.
Although the strength of the others is lower, the siege of everyone together also makes it difficult for the pangolins to take care of themselves.
"Squeak—"
Sensing the danger, the pangolin let out a piercing chirp and burrowed directly into the soil and quickly disappeared.
Since they had no experience in dealing with this kind of ground-burrowing beast at all, everyone was a little caught off guard in the face of this scene, and they actually watched it burrow into the ground.
By the time they reacted, there was only a deep hole left in place, and there was still the shadow of a pangolin.
"Damn, let it run!"
Farion yelled.
Under his attack, seeing that the pangolin has been injured, as long as he continues to besiege and kill, he may be able to kill it soon.
The others were also annoyed.
"Captain......
One of the knights put away his weapon and was about to say something, but just then, beneath where he stood, the earth churned.
This made him completely unable to react, the churning soil directly made him not stand firm, his body tilted, and at this moment, the pangolin that had just disappeared actually came out, and pulled out several deep wounds on his leg with one claw, and the blood flowed profusely.
