chapter21

Filsey and Lub were far apart, and if they hadn't been in the same direction, no one would have thought of them as their companions.

"I didn't expect the two of us to go all the way," Filsey said. ”

Lub was silent.

"Lub, I apologize to you for my previous recklessness," said Filsey. ”

Lub asked, "What apologies?" ”

"Everyone has secrets they don't want to tell, and I shouldn't push you," Filsey said. ”

Lub sneered.

"You know," said Filsie, "I am very obsessed with the face of Tacales, and I will not allow anyone to hurt him until his face is disfigured, and you must forgive me for questioning you, after all, you are not only the crown prince of Gregory, but also Gregory's most wanted man!" ”

Lubu's eyes were blazing with cold, and he involuntarily clenched the dagger, wanting to stab it into Filsy's chest! - This person knows too much, and this will be a serious threat to him! But he took two deep breaths and suppressed the urge to kill, in this strange wood, he couldn't act rashly, one more person would give him more life.

Filsey said, "Lub, you can't kill me. ”

Lub said, "We can give it a try." ”

"Maybe we'll be able to learn a bit about our profession after we're out of the Forest of Terror," Filsey said. ”

Lub said, "Okay. ”

Firsey and Lub made a brief peace and decided to work together to conquer the Forest of Terror, but the lone Takales was not as laid-back as they were, and he was forced to run away again without even a moment to shout or rest—a four-horned beast with long fangs was chasing him!

It's a squeaky beast, with a very stupid name, but it's a real ferocious beast. They prefer cold and damp environments, live alone, and their favorite thing is to chase their prey to exhaustion and death, and then they will use the fangs of their body length to poke the prey's head, causing the brain to burst out, and when the prey's brain is finished, they will bite off the prey's head and chew it until it "squeaks".

The squeaky beast that Takales encountered was an adult beast, it was strong and agile, its naked body was one and a half meters long, and with its unscientific fangs, it was three meters long, as big as a monster!

The Squeaky Beast pursued Tacales, it was fast and enduring, and its prey was usually unable to beat it in races, and it opened its mouth and spewed a hot smell at Tacales, the stench that almost made Tacales fall to the ground.

Takales held down the hilt of his sword, he wanted to draw his sword to deal with the squeaky beast, according to his eyesight, this squeaky beast is large and fast, and other skills are very ordinary, he is not without a chance to kill the other party, but his shoulder injury is untimely, which makes it difficult for him to even lift his arm, let alone raise his sword to fight a fierce beast!

This, Takales thought, is too unlucky!

Takales was on the run for his life, and Monhama and Monroe were no better than him, and they were attacked even more unbelievably - by the canes of the trees in the woods!

While Monhama and Monro were searching for traces of Takales, all of a sudden the trees of the Forest of Terror came to life, their branches turning into gray-brown vipers, spitting snake letters and launching a frenzied attack on them! There are thousands of trees, and there are thousands of snakes, which are either wrapped around the trunks, or wandering on the ground, or gliding high in the air, one after the other, swimming in unison towards the two of Monhama, intending to treat them as a feast!

Sick with goosebumps, he said, "Where did these snakes come from?" Why do tree branches turn into snakes?! ”

Monroe gasped for air and said, "This ...... This is the Greytree Snake, they ...... They are all masters of camouflage, and can use their snake's tail to penetrate trees...... Straighten your body, like the trunk of a tree growing on this tree. Wait for the prey to get close to ...... They, they attack them in groups. They will first cover their prey in layers and use brutal force to ...... the prey Cut off the waist and ...... again"

Monthama shouted, "Alright, don't talk about it! I can almost foresee what will happen if we get pestered by them! ”

"Yes," Monroe said, "the consequences would be terrible. ”

"Is there nothing you can do?" ”

Monroe said, "It's in my medicine box...... There's snake repellent powder, but I don't have time to get it. ”

"I don't have time to take it!" ”

Neither Monhama nor Monroe could spare their hands, because if they had a half-second pause, the waves of snakes would swallow them up in an instant! But this kind of escape is not a way after all, they will be tired, they will not be able to run, but the gray tree snake has no such concerns, even if they fall one, another hundred will be on top, they are endless!

Monroe braced himself on his knees, the large, heavy medicine box bending his spine like a hill, large beads of sweat sliding down his forehead and dripping into the hem of his shirt, making him uncomfortably sticky.

Monroe had never traveled so far, and his throat was full of blood, and his body was about to be overdrawn, and he whispered, "I...... I can't run, you...... Leave me alone! ”

"How is this possible! You are the new companion of our mercenary group, or the pharmacist that Filsi hired with a lot of money, how can I leave you alone! He looked back at the overwhelming gray tree snake, and his heart sank, and said, "I will carry you!" ”

The Monhama man was tall, muscular, and had excellent physical strength and stamina, and he grabbed the man before Monroe spoke, and carried the person on his shoulders like a cargo, just to Monroe's abdomen, which made Monroe dizzy for a while, and almost wanted to vomit! But at this time he could not complain about anything, and could only roll his eyes and endure vomiting* on the shoulders of Monhama.

Because of this delay, the distance between the Grey Tree Serpents and Monhama narrowed, and the one who swam so fast jumped up from the ground that he could almost bite Monroe's nose! Monroe craned his neck and touched the medicine box with his backhand, trying to find the snake repellent powder, but before his hand could touch the lock of the medicine box, Monhama jumped and hit him his stomach, and he was so sick that he really vomited, just vomiting on the head of a snake that was about to wrap around Monhama's calf, and the snake was so smoked that it became sluggish.

Monhama said, "You don't want to vomit a little more!" ”

Monroe said weakly, "Don't ...... ...... vomit"

Monhama ran all the way, Monroe threw up all the way, and he didn't have time to care if the vomit got on Monhama's boots! They ran and ran, and when the stupid big man of Monhama was so tired that his stomach began to cramp, they met Tacales, who was also a long-distance runner!

Monthama suddenly came to his senses and waved happily at Tacales, who was so cheerful that he almost threw Monroe into the snake! Takares was also happy to see his companion, and quickened his pace and ran towards Monthama, who shouted, "Don't run this way! There's a snake behind me! ”

Tacales said, "What?! He looked intently, and sure enough, he saw the magnificent group of snakes biting at Monhama, and cried out anxiously, "There is a squeaky beast behind me!" ”

As soon as Monhama looked up, he met the tall and fierce beast behind Takales, and the heart of crying to death was gone, there was a squeaky beast in front of him and a gray tree snake behind it, where were they going to hide?!

Takales made a gesture, Monhama had been friends with him for many years, and the two had a very tacit understanding, and when they were about to touch each other, they invariably changed directions, ran to the right, and chased the squeaky beast of Takales before it had time to brake, and plunged into the group of gray tree snakes, and such a large beast suddenly came to the snake group, which was also an excellent prey for them, and for a while, the gray tree snakes gave up on them and turned around the squeaky beast.

Takales and Monhama easily shook off their respective hunters, did not dare to linger, and mustered up their strength to run for more than ten minutes before stopping, both holding on to the tree and panting.

Monhama put down Monroe, Monroe's face was as dead as ashes, and he looked like he was about to breathe more and breathe less, and Tacales hurriedly pinched Monroe's man and fed him a mouthful of water, and Monroe took a sharp breath and turned around.

Monroe coughed vigorously, clutching his throat to vomit, but he couldn't vomit anything, he took a few deep breaths, and after recovering a little, he pulled out the snake repellent powder from the medicine box and sprinkled some on all three of them.

Monthama: "There's no more Grey Tree Serpent. ”

Monroe said, "Prevention is better than prevention, and who knows if it will be in the next tree." ”

"Monroe was right, we put some snake repellent powder on it," Takales said. Ah, by the way, aren't Filsie and Lub with you? ”

"No," said Monthama, "I thought they were with you. ”

"No, I'm only one person," said Tacales. ”

"So where will they be?" said Monthama. ”

"I don't know, but the two of them should be fine, they're the strongest in our mercenary group." ”

"Well, I hope," said Monhama, "I don't have the heart to care about them now, I'm dying myself." ”

Takales said, "Yes. ”

Several people rested in place for more than half an hour, shared some dry food, and then returned to the road.

"I really don't want to move," said Monthama. ”

"If you don't want to move, you have to move, this horror forest is full of dangers, we can't stay in one place for too long, and I'm worried about Filsey and Lub, their contemplative incense is running out, we need to find them quickly." ”

Monhama said, "Well, it's all up to you." ”

Tacales and Monhama are in good health, half an hour is enough for them to make up for the lost body, but Monroe is not good, he is still weak and has a stomachache at this point, but he didn't say much, he followed Tacales slowly, and Monhama also supported Monroe with one hand, and carried Monroe's medicine box to help him lighten his burden.

Monroe said, "Thank you." ”

"We are companions, of course we have to help each other, what is there to thank you for," said Monhama. ”

Monroe smiled gratefully.

The calm of the three did not last long, and when they walked a few hundred meters, a new round of crisis came again!

In front of them, an army of skeletons has emerged!
