79F, Forbidden Land for Heroes - Brown Zone

The next day.

Moran thought it was still the same as yesterday, with the endless reddish-brown sequoia and the occasional birdsong. But I didn't expect that after walking for a while, the color of the trunk began to change little by little, deepening.

The sunlight falling overhead is also becoming scarce little by little...... It's not because it's getting late, it's because the branches of the giant sequoia are getting thicker, and the foliage is getting more and more abundant, blocking out most of the sun.

It was clear that it was noon, but the sky was dark at dusk.

The crowd began to become vigilant, narrowing the distance between them and slowing their pace.

"How's the situation around?" asked Ah Xuan.

"The foliage is so dense that I can't see it from above through Erbai's perspective, so I'm letting it come down and hover as high as I can six or seven stories high...... Moran said.

She added an extra coat at this time, because the temperature had dropped, and Moran only guessed that it was because the sun was blocked by the leaves, and did not think much about it.

"Six or seven floors?" Earl asked, "is there a building that tall?"

"No, it's just a metaphor. Moran said.

Earl stepped forward and touched the trunk that had turned brown, "Moran, do you know why these giant sequoia have become such trunks?"

"I also want to just ask for the reason. Moran said with a frown.

Suddenly, her nose caught a faint smell of blood.

She suddenly stopped and looked in the other direction.

"What's wrong? Did you see the bear?" asked Ainslie nervously.

"Shut up. Ah Xuan said coldly.

He pricked up his ears and seemed to catch a hint of noise.

Ah Xuan motioned for a few people to retreat with his eyes, he drew his long sword and silently marched forward.

Earl and Ainsley mobilized all their five senses, but they didn't notice anything, they didn't even notice Ah Xuan's footsteps, although the other party was obviously slowly moving forward in front of their eyes.

Ainsley scolded in his heart, sure enough, this man was a monster. He is not ashamed to lose at the hands of such a monster.

Earl and Ainsley stared nervously for a while, but nothing happened, only Ah Xuan, who was gradually moving away, their tense nerves could no longer bear it, and began to gradually relax.

Whoosh –

A black shadow bounced out of the shadow of the tree trunk.

Ah Xuan raised his sword and fell, with a miserable scream, a splash of blood, and a heavy object fell to the ground......

"What is it?" Moran asked.

Ah Xuan picked up his chest and returned to a few animals with a big hole in his chest.

"Rabbit?" Earl was surprised.

I saw a brown fur hare in his hand, but the size of the hare was a little beyond their comprehension...... It is the size of a normal hound.

Ainsley took a few steps back, his eyes shining with fear, "Look! I'm telling the truth! This forest is really not normal! The bear is just like it! Let's get out of here!"

"It's just a rabbit, even if it gets bigger, it's still a rabbit. Earl said disdainfully, "Why are you less daring than a rabbit since you're still the captain of the Templars?"

"No, Earl. Ainslie was right. Moran said.

"Are you going to give up?"

"I sensed the smell of blood before Ah Xuan killed it. ”

Hearing Moran's words, Ah Xuan silently examined the rabbit and found animal bite marks on its body. He turned the rabbit around and showed them the discovery.

"Sure enough...... It seems that the predator who hunted this rabbit is also not far away. Ah Xuan threw the rabbit away, let's hurry out of this place that smells of blood. Moran said.

Ainslie's eyes lit up with hope. Looks like she's going to give up?

Moran noticed this and struck him mercilessly, "Deeper, of course." ”

-

The crowd quickened their pace, but the surrounding scenery remained the same, still brown tree trunks, and the sky was dim.

As it would get darker than normal at normal times, they walked for a while in complete darkness with torches in hand, ready to rest.

Moran originally wanted to find a cave to rest in, but all around him were tall trees, and the trees were so strong that even the tree caves were almost invisible. In the end, I had to choose a relatively safe place.

After that, Erbai had lowered the flight altitude and guarded the surroundings, but they didn't find any other creatures except for the rabbits that had fled before.

“...... That said, we must not give up our vigilance. Moran said, "I'm one of today's nights." ”

Although both Xuan and Earl rejected Moran's offer again, she said, "I found the big rabbit before Xuan, didn't I?"

They had to agree.

No one knows why Moran's perception is still above Ah Xuan.

However, due to their more dangerous situation, they planned to split into two shifts of two people each.

A group of Xuan and Ainslie.

Moran and Earl in a group...... And, of course, Erbai.

In the first half of the night, it was better to guard, so it was handed over to Moran's group.

Moran and Earl chatted with each other, Moran learned how much Lana liked this brother when she was a child, and Earl also knew several ways to remove goat's milk and mutton dishes.

Earl finally knew why Moran had a milky aroma mixed with a hint of jasmine, because it was used to add a little jasmine tea when boiling goat's milk, and after boiling, the tea leaves could be filtered to remove the ......

"I didn't expect you to like to drink goat's milk so much, and you even have a milky smell on your body. Earl said.

Moran glanced at him and said, "What are you thinking, what do you eat, what does it taste like? If you like shrimp paste, do you want to live? I use homemade jasmine milk soap, and I have been using it since I was very young!"

"Oh......" Earl chose to shut up.

Ah Xuan, who couldn't sleep, squinted his eyes and glanced at Moran, who was having a good conversation with Earl, and thought to himself, it turns out that this is how the good smell on her body comes from......

-

Compared with the relaxed harmony of the first half of the night, the second half of the night is a yakuza movie.

"Ainslie, say what you know again. Ah Xuan exuded a murderous aura and said sharply.

"Didn't I say it once?" Ainslie said quickly.

"Say it again!

"Okay, okay! I ...... Uh......"

The hilt of the sword slammed directly into Ainslie's throat, accompanied by a threatening voice.

"Quietly. Can't wake them up...... Do you want to die?" said Ah Xuan.

Ainslie gave a blank look.

This bastard, who pretended to be a gentleman in front of Moran, said that he would not fight people who had no will to fight...... Look at this ugly face now! He really wanted Moran to get up and recognize Ah Xuan's true face! But Ainslie also believed that if he really dared to do that, he should give an account for his life......

But what Ainsley didn't know was that Ah Xuan was actually angry because of what happened last night. I woke up by coincidence, but I saw that Ainsley wanted to do something wrong.

Moran told him about the dangers of that night, but when Axuan saw Ainslie's obedient appearance, he thought that he had learned a lesson, and was afraid of Moran's "witch power".

But I didn't expect this product to still have such thoughts!

Dealing with this kind of shameless person, Ah Xuan thought, should he do something?
