Chapter 23 Dangerous Plants
This is the uninhabited frontier. It took two hours to finally return to this place, the land of the dead on the third planet.
Coming here, Qiao Erlan once again felt the sense of oppression that nature brought to human beings. Her breathing slowed down.
The two looked at each other and stepped in. When they arrived, they had prepared a week's worth of food, clean water, a few changes of clothes, and various tools to survive in the wild. Sleep and barely lie in the flying ship to make do.
Unlike the first time the two of them came here, their steps were no longer messy and full of uncertainty. And no longer panic. They already know where the forbidden areas are, and where humans can come and explore. It's kind of prepared.
Lu Jianian chose a path for Qiao Erlan that was not dangerous, but it was definitely not easy to walk. There are dangerous animals there, there are dangerous plants, and even the gases that fill the air are dangerous. There are many people who have successfully crossed this road, and many people have been left behind.
Even if it is dangerous, Qiao Erlan has long been mentally prepared, as a student of the Zade's Imperial Academy, although her physical condition is not the best, it is definitely not bad. Let's take your body to the next level! Push your body's limits in extreme danger. Qiao Erlan looked into the distance, and the composure in his eyes was inevitable. Lu Jianian looked at Qiao Erlan, who was full of fighting spirit, thoughtfully.
At this time, the sun is still high in the sky.
But Joellan felt much better than when they had just been captured on the Third Planet, or rather, more adapted to the planet's climate and sun than before.
A harsh environment is more capable of exercising a person.
"Let's go." Joellan took a deep breath and took the lead.
β¦β¦
In the middle of nowhere. It was dark and dark, and the ground was sometimes dry, with several layers of dry leaves and thin dry branches that had fallen to the ground.
The two walked one after the other.
The people in front are cautious, and the people in the back are good.
Joellan watched and listened to all directions, clutching the gun tightly. Lu Jianian was aimless, and his hands were bored with the weeds pulled on the side of the road.
"Little Joe." Suddenly, Lu Jianian behind her called her.
The person in front of him paused, turned back nervously, and grasped the gun in his hand even tighter. She motioned to him with her eyes: Something?
Lu Jianian shook his head, "It's okay, it's just that your shoelaces fell off." β
Hearing this, Qiao Erlan glanced down at her shoes...... Where did the laces come from.
Lu Jianian couldn't help laughing, and the dim surroundings seemed to be a little brighter because of his smile. Lu Jianian laughed and made people feel a little more approachable.
Joellan glared angrily when he heard him make fun of himself so unscrupulously. And the latter calmly accepted her anger, and was unhurried: "If you really want to train yourself, it is indeed good to be cautious." But the spirit has been tense for a long time, and the body can't keep up. So ......"
He didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but he believed she already knew.
Sure enough, Joellan listened. She tried to relax herself, and although she didn't feel any psychological pressure, it was much better than before.
Lu Jianian disappeared as he walked. Joellan didn't stop him either. She knew he would be nearby.
Joellan squeaked as she stepped on a small branch on the ground.
After walking for about 500 meters without any danger, something finally came. Its movements were neither big nor small, it seemed to be provocative, and it seemed to be so excited that it couldn't hide its tracks. For creatures in the vast realm, food like humans is not often encountered.
Joellan narrowed her eyes. Listen intently to where the sound is coming from.
Joellan raised the laser gun on his side to a flat shoulder position, pressed his fingers on the gun, and as long as he clicked, the gun would fire-
This is the time!
Joellan quickly turned around and aimed a shot at the beast that was attacking him from behind!
"Roarβ" The fierce beast, which looked like both a tiger and a lion, roared terribly.
β¦β¦
The beast struggled for a long time, but was eventually killed by a shot from Joellan. Its sharp claws stretched forward a little, then hung limply.
When Lu Jianian saw this, his eyes were deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
On the way, Qiao Erlan killed four more mutated beasts, and although they were injured, they were finally not in danger of their lives. Joellan thought: she can't let the robot hiding in the shadows underestimate her.
If Lu Jianian knew that she was thinking these things at this time, then he would definitely make fun of her again: the really dangerous thing is not these lively and cute little animals. The Vast Realm has never been a deterrent to humans and robots because of a few beasts.
Lu Jianian will definitely sigh: No matter how rational and mature Xiao Qiao is, he still underestimates this dangerous world. How can he rest assured that he was not by her side.
The surroundings are quiet and peaceful.
This is Jollan's view of the secluded forest in front of him. The road Lu Jianian chose was different from the one they first came in.
Although there are not many large animals in this forest, there are some small insects and wild flowers and grasses. Before I even entered this forest, I could already smell the fresh fragrance of the leaves and the fragrance of the flowers. White mushrooms, dark green weeds, golden leaves, the wind is blowing the leaves, and the teeth of the squirrels are biting at the young leaves. The intoxicating forest, with endless green waves, hangs high on this tree, planted among the fragrant flowers. Every tree is full of life, every grass is full of life, and every squirrel is lively and lovely.
If she hadn't known the danger beforehand, Joellan would have almost thought she was on vacation.
Lu Jianian, who was hiding not far away, also became cautious. He hid just now because considering the beast's instinct to find the strongest opponent, it was clearly not the beast that was the most dangerous right now.
After much thought, he stepped out.
"Let's go together." Lu Jianian approached Qiao Erlan and stood on her left hand side in order to protect her.
Joellan nodded. Suddenly I regretted that I was so impulsive.
And Lu Jianian didn't notice what she was thinking, just grabbed her hand steadily.
"I'm in front, follow me." Lu Jianian glanced back at Qiao Erlan. It wasn't until she nodded that she entered the forest.
The light is soft, the air is a little damp, and it is very common. But there is no such thing as ordinary in the vast domain.
As the two of them went deeper and deeper, the humidity became heavier, not at all like the previous dryness.
Dry! Joellan finally knew what was weird: it had been a dry dirt road all the way, only here was the humidity.
Joellan wanted
reminded Lu Jianian, and for a moment remembered that he was much more careful than himself. At the moment, I also retracted my mind and paid attention to my surroundings. At least not to hold her back.
