Alternate Chapter 2
The mid-level apostle was not a very intelligent apostle, but there was no doubt that he still did not want to sacrifice his life in vain in the forests of this unfamiliar world. Although it is true that the environment here is better than in the apostolic world. But how terrible it is to die here, maybe your body will not be found by the other apostles, and it will rot in the ground until it is absorbed by these forests.
In the apostolic world, there is such a saying. That is, during the winter when there is a shortage of fertilizer, some of the trees in the forest will actively attack the Apostles and other races who have strayed into the forest. to stay well nourished through the winter. In fact, such things did happen in the apostolic world. The mid-ranking apostle remembered that among the races conquered by the apostles, there was a strange race that used all kinds of plants as their weapons. They use their living organisms to feed some special trees and flowers, and thus raise those flowers and trees into bloodthirsty monsters. In the process of conquering them, there was even an apostolic army of 100 people who strayed into the forest of those strange trees, and the whole army was swallowed up and absorbed.
In the beginning, it wasn't unclear that the mourner hadn't thought about co-opting those strange races to become one of his subordinates. But it ended in failure. There are several main reasons for this, one of which is that there are not only purebred apostles in the apostles' army, but there are also other races that have been conquered by the apostles. And these races are not as powerful as the apostolic race, and even the apostles have not suffered at the hands of this strange race, let alone those races that have been conquered by the apostles. Therefore, the soldiers of those races are afraid of this race, and if they are co-opted, it is estimated that the soldiers of those other races will be lost in a few days.
And the second reason is that this race is not good at anything other than being able to use these strange spells. It is just a scourge in the army, and it has no effect if you ask for it.
Therefore, for this strange race, the mourner took a different approach than other races, that is, extermination. Surprisingly, the other races were not only not frightened by the decision to exterminate the race, but were all overjoyed, as if they had long wished to do so.
The mid-ranking apostles had seen these strange races before, and of course that was after the genocide of the Lost Lord. The middle apostle recalled, It was like a scene in a slave garden. It is said that those slave gardens are not so uncommon in the apostolic world, on the contrary, every city controlled by the apostles has a slave garden of various sizes. And these slave farms are all imprisoned by some races that have been abandoned by the bereaved owners. Of course, as the apostles' tentacles penetrated deep into the human world, various races from the human world began to appear in the slave garden. However, it is a miracle that that the nasty race was able to appear in the slave garden after being exterminated by the bereaved owner. The owner of the slave garden probably spent a lot of effort and money to have so much strength.
The middle-level apostle had only seen the annoying side of the race, but the impression left on the middle-level apostle was particularly deep. What kind of physiognomy is that? It looks exactly like these trees in this human world, and the body is sold as if it really is a tree trunk. It's all green, like leaves. And he was covered in sarcomas, and he looked like an old man, but around him, none of the other races dared to take half a step. For all the other races that dared to approach him, without exception, were absorbed by the strange grass that spread all around him. Think about it, how could there be grass in a slave farm that was made by that nasty race.
Thinking of this, the mid-level apostles became more and more afraid of this forest. Who knows if there is a similar life like that race in the human world? Who knows? If there is a race like that at this time, I don't know how I died. Thinking of this, the middle-level apostle became more and more frightened.
"What did you find?"
The other apostle soldiers probably didn't understand what the mid-level apostle meant, so they shook their heads and said, "My lord, we haven't found anything so far. But we haven't gone very far into this forest, maybe we will find it if we search a little more!"
The mid-level apostle was eager to kill the blind apostle soldier right away. But there was no way, that apostle soldier was not a direct subordinate of a mid-level apostle, but his old lover. And he is still a pure apostle, not a conquered race, so there is no way to kill him directly, if he kills him directly and is reported by other soldiers, then it is estimated that his little lover will not take into account his former identity and will kill himself.
Hey, there's no way, The middle-level apostle thought about it, but he really hadn't been deep into this forest for a long time. If it was such a simple transaction, his old lover would definitely not be satisfied. After all, this job was his own next, and the old lover did not take the initiative to arrange it for him. If you mess up, it's not just a matter of face.
"Alright, the team is a little more dispersed. Remembering the horror of the undead spirit called Lady Sigh, and the horror brought to him by the dense forest itself, the mid-rank apostle added: "Remember, but don't be too separated, pay attention to your companions, and report any loss to me as soon as possible." ”
In this way, the one hundred and ten scattered apostle soldiers continued to reconnoiter this dense forest under the leadership of the mid-level apostles. Outside the dense forest, Lady Light Sigh and the Tiger King also seemed very anxious.
"Tiger King, what's the latest information?"
Lone just looked and there was a group of Apostle soldiers patrolling inside. The one who took the lead should be a middle-rank apostle. ”
Patrol, Apostle Patrol, Apostle Patrol, Silent Lady patted her brain. "Tiger King, what did you say? I just didn't hear clearly, or is it something else?"
"He said that the Apostle was patrolling inside!" Shen Lin thought that the lady really didn't hear clearly, so she deliberately increased her tone. But then she was lightly sighed, and the lady covered her mouth with her hand.
"What are you doing?" sighed softly, "are you trying to expose ourselves?"
Shen Lin realized that she had done something wrong, blushed slightly, and whispered, "I, I just thought you didn't hear it." ”
"How could I not have heard? I can't believe it! Have you seen those apostles patrolling?"
Shen Lin shook his head: "Apostle patrol?"
"Yes, Apostle Patrol!" repeated the Lady of Sigh, "if your voice is heard by the Apostles, then we may be exposed!"
"Wait, ma'am, wait. At this time, the Tiger King suddenly had an inspiration, and his tone was a little excited: "Yes, ma'am, why didn't you think of it just now? Shen Lin, you have to speak, and you have to speak loudly, if you can sing or something, you can do it all! However, you have to be careful to show that carefree feeling, the louder the better, you know?"
"What did you say?" said the lady in surprise, not even knowing that her hand had fallen from Shen Lin's mouth.
"But, but I don't know the poetry of the bards of this era?" Shen Lin didn't think about it so much, just thinking that he was from the previous era, and he couldn't sing the songs of this era. "I'll only be pop songs from the past. ”
"No matter what, you can sing anything!" the Tiger King became more and more excited, and he actually looked a little impatient: "In short, you have to remember that the louder your voice is, the better, and you must let those apostles know that there is someone on the other side of the forest! And it's a woman!"
Someone, and a woman, sighed lightly, and in a blink of an eye she understood what the Tiger King meant. "Yes, Shen Lin, you just listen to the Tiger King. It doesn't matter if you talk, laugh, or sing, as long as you can attract those apostles, that's fine!"
"But Tiger King, what if only the apostle soldiers in the forest came?"
The Tiger King smiled: "This is easy to solve. Wait for Gu to go into the forest again, and go back when you go!" Immediately, the figure of the Tiger King flashed in front of the eyes of Ms. Qingsigh and Shen Lin, and there was no trace in an instant.
Shen Lin looked blankly at the empty space that disappeared in front of her, because not long ago, the Tiger King was still talking to her and Ms. Qingsigh in that position, but she didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, the Tiger King had disappeared without a trace!
"He, where did he go?"
Compared with Shen Lin, who was still quite immature, Ms. Qingsigh certainly saw the speed of the Tiger King's movement clearly. I didn't expect this guy to get older and better. The lady sighed and then said, "He's in." ”
"Into that forest?" Shen Lin stood where the Tiger King had stood before, and said to the lady who sighed, "Did you see it?"
The lady just nodded: "Little girl, there is still a lot to learn." When the Tiger King comes back, you start singing. Then he just gave Shen Lin a very meaningful look, and only focused on the dense forest where the Tiger King disappeared. Ms. Sigh knows that the next thing will be very exciting.
In the dense forest, the mid-level apostles would not know what kind of horror awaited them. But in the dark, as if there was an electrocardiogram, the mid-level apostle's heartbeat began to accelerate significantly. Could it be that there is danger inside? In fact, there are many voices in his heart: don't go, don't go. But now they really haven't been deep into this dense forest for long. If they had returned at this time, they would have been greeted not only by the ridicule of their fellow apostles. After all, in this army, there are two other middle-level apostles, not to mention, and his old lover, the only high-level apostle.
Suddenly, the mid-rank apostle felt a sudden gust of wind appear on his left hand. Immediately afterward, the middle-level apostle saw that an apostolic soldier on the left suddenly disappeared, and it came so suddenly that even the middle-level apostle didn't see clearly who was doing it. Is this an illusion?
But as if to confirm that what he was seeing was not an illusion, the shadow immediately reappeared. And this time, the one who suffered became an apostolic soldier to his left. Even though it was an alien, he still saw a faint wail before the alien disappeared.
"Alert! Urgent alert!" the mid-ranking apostle felt more and more frightened. He gave a loud command to the other apostolic soldiers, and as he drew his weapon, a broadsword, and looked around vigilantly. This is simply terrible, in just a moment, he lost two soldiers. And he didn't even see who the enemy was who caused all this. And now the other apostle soldiers didn't know what was going on around them, and in a daze, they obeyed the orders of their superiors and began to concentrate on the mid-level apostles.
And it was at this time that they discovered that in fact, in this dense forest, there were not only beings like them.
The surprise attacks were becoming more and more frequent, and many of the Apostolic soldiers found that one second they were standing next to their colleagues, but the next second they were empty. If this happened only once or twice, it could have been a hallucination, but when the attacks continued to occur, all the apostolic soldiers realized how serious the situation was. Since the mid-level apostle only said the word "guard" and didn't say anything else, the remaining apostle soldiers could only subconsciously form a circular defensive formation and wait for the nightmare to come.
"Hey, is this really an apostolic army?" sighed the Tiger King, who was hiding in a nearby green tree, these enemies were too weak. So much so that he didn't have any desire to challenge at all. But it has to be done. In desperation, the Tiger King went down the woods, but in order to let the apostles find out, the Tiger King deliberately reduced his speed. And it was because of this that the mid-rank apostle discovered what was attacking him.
Finally, when the Tiger King killed the thirty-seventh apostle soldier, because the Tiger King deliberately stopped and looked at the middle-level apostle with cold eyes, the middle-level apostle discovered for the first time what kind of monster attacked him! This monster, although it was not as disgusting and ugly as he imagined, but that look, the kind of eyes that could kill people, had already broken the heart of the middle-level apostle.
No, no. Without warning, the mid-ranking apostle actually left his subordinates and fled on his own.
