Chapter 504: Hope for Life

Some people's eyes were spent, because the white light had irritated them for too long, and for several days, they had not seen any other color, except for the night, when they could only see a white, white mist.

When they first entered the mist, they could still smell the pungent smell in the mist, but now, I don't know if they have adapted to it or what, their sense of smell has gradually disappeared.

It's like a dream.

"Three thousand and fifty-four, three thousand and fifty-five, three thousand......" Sandy's little face looked a little sluggish.

When the front team ordered to rest in place, Sandy sat down under an ancient tree with an angry expression, "Dad, it's been many days, and I don't think we can count the trees here in many days." ”

Yes, this is the Endless Forest, and even if all the humans on the continent were placed here, I can't count how many trees there are. Luckily, there was a white fog around him, and if the white fog cleared and Sandy saw the endless trees, he would only be more desperate. "Come on, just hold on for a few more days and we'll win the game!" Pique said to him with a smile, "The other kids are holding on, and if you give up, the other kids will win the game directly." ”

Sandy listened to Pique's encouragement, and the depressed expression on his face relaxed slightly, and then he asked suspiciously:

"But I haven't seen any other children in the past two days. ”

"How so, in order to become a Knight of Light, the other children will persevere......" Peake said this, suddenly realizing that something was wrong!

He stood up and looked left and right, and there were other children in sight!

There were about 100 people in the field of vision within a radius of 20 square meters, and there should have been five or six old people or children, but Peake looked at it many times, but he didn't see a single old man or child!

He pulled Sandy up from the ground and began to walk down into the fog for some distance, it was time to rest, he couldn't go too far or he would be reprimanded by the Silver Cavalry. But walking out of a distance of ten meters is enough, the visibility of the white fog is ten to twenty meters, after he walked out of ten meters, he looked at the crowd around him.

There are still no old people and children!

No, to be exact, there was still a child, seven or eight years old, who was being held by his father's hand, and Peake saw the horror and uneasiness on his father's face.

There can't be only one child out of more than 100 people!

Peake's heart suddenly turned cold, and he remembered what Barton Mondo had said to him three days ago—I will keep your grandfather and son.

The cavalry killed the old man and the child, and Pique made this guess in his mind. He didn't dare to ask the grieving father or son, the only thing he could do now was to hold Sandy's hand tightly.

He also had to find a way to meet Hasja, the old man and the child disappeared from the group, and Hasja must have noticed this phenomenon as well, so he had to go to Hasja once and tell her that Sandy and her grandfather were under the protection of Barton Mondo.

The team started again and headed north.

Most of the people were silent, and only the pessimistic Falal in the group kept whispering:

"Damn the Endless Wall. ”

"Damn the Endless Forest. ”

"Damn Kingdom Cavalry......"

The spineless Sido punched and knocked the pessimistic Ferral's next complaints back into his stomach.

In this pessimistic situation, no one wants to listen to complaints about lack of nutrition, and if it weren't for Sido's lesson to Faral, it is likely that others would have been tempted to do it in the end.

Falal didn't have the strength to argue with Sido, and if he were fed, he would definitely use all the foul language he had heard in his life to insult Sido, but he was too hungry.

For the first three days, they had chestnut cakes that were hard like stones to eat, and for the last two days they had only gruel to drink.

Everyone's eyes are blazing with Venus, and someone is starting to study which tree bark is edible and which plant rhizome is not poisonous.

Finally, one of the men fell from hunger, his lips were chapped and there was not a trace of blood on his face. The silver-armored cavalry whipped him twice, and he was unable to exhale the pain, but he endured it silently, and finally was whipped alive and hung from a tree.

More than one person was so hungry that he couldn't walk, and those who collapsed from hunger ended up being turned into corpses and hung from trees.

Every now and then, Pique adds an additional game to Sandy – walking with his eyes closed.

The game isn't difficult to complete, and Pique had this to say to Sandy:

"Sandy, you're tired, Daddy will help you count the trees, and now you need to complete the game of walking with your eyes closed so your eyes can rest. ”

In this way, Peake led Sandy, who had his eyes closed and his ears covered, and walked past the dead bodies hanging from the trees.

The Yodelmen were no longer surprised when they saw the dead bodies in the trees in front of them, they had seen too much. The faint-hearted will close their eyes like Sandy, and the bold will study in their hearts whether they can cheat their lives and escape.

In the end, they all rejected the plan.

The kingdom cavalry would not leave them any chance, not to mention that they had already walked in the endless forest for five days, and they did not know that they had walked hundreds of miles.

With a large army, they can be protected from wild beasts, and if they wander the endless forest alone, they will definitely not survive a night.

Almost everyone heard the miserable howls that rang into their ears from time to time during the night.

It seemed to be the cry of a deer, and it was like the cry of an ape, and no one knew which animal the sound came from in the night.

It has to be said that thousands of people walked in the Endless Forest for many days, but they did not see any living creatures.

Only ancient trees and mist.

Similarly, there is a white mist in Pique's dreams, and he talks to Soros for a long time almost every day after entering the misty dream.

Pique guessed that the Second Apostle had captured so many people in order to collect the breath of the dead. This speculation was directly rejected by Soros, who said that if you want to collect the undead qi, there is no need to be so troublesome, you just need to kill everyone and use magic crystals to collect them.

A soybean-sized magic crystal can store the undead qi produced by the death of thousands of people, so there is no such factor as insufficient magic crystals.

Soros guessed that the Second Apostle took them into the Endless Forest to find a substitute for the dead, and many powerful magicians or necromancers like to use bait to lead the monster into the trap and then hunt it when they catch it. And the necromancer's favorite bait is humans.

On the one hand, humans have a certain amount of intelligence, which is convenient for necromancers to control. On the other hand, the Monsters of the Endless Forest have a soft spot for human flesh.

Peake's mind was racing wildly, and when it was almost night, the pessimistic Farral also collapsed to the ground with hunger, and to everyone's surprise, the first to reach out was the spineless Sido.

"Spineless Sido, I won't laugh at your mother anymore," Faral said as he grabbed Sido's shoulders, "and if I go back to Peace Town, I won't peek at your mother's bath, although her figure is really not very good." ”

Sido felt insulted, so he threw Faral to the ground and made up for it.

"You can't abandon me," Falal groaned weakly, "I've been your friend since childhood!"

Yes, the pessimistic Falal was often beaten, and the person who beat him was Sido, "You mention my mother again," Sido helped Falal back up, "I'll break your leg bone a sixth time!"

"Change the bone," said Farral, "and the third rib under my armpit hasn't been broken by you, and if you like, you can call it all your strength, and it doesn't have to walk, and I need to walk with my leg bones." I'm going to see where these guys are going to take us, I guess they're going to use us to feed the beasts, or the legendary monsters, but I don't even see a single beast hair, I can't just die, and I'm still hanging on a tree, so boring, so that it doesn't affect everyone's senses, and in order not to let Sandy play a game of walking with his eyes closed, I plan to die in a few days. ”

The pessimistic Faral kept chattering, and the spineless Sido didn't beat him this time, because he was also hungry and had no strength.

After dark, they did not hear the order to rest after a long day, and they were still forced to continue walking, to the north.

In the end, it was not one person who starved one after another, but a group of people who fell!

The Kingdom Troopers might kill one, two, or ten, but they clearly didn't want to kill everyone. So when they saw dozens of people slumping to the ground at the same time, they all chose to be silent.

The pessimistic Falal and the spineless Sido collapsed beside Peake at the same time, and Sandy asked:

"What game are you playing right now? I'm going to play it too. ”

Sandy was also tired, and Peake, who had lived in the forest as a carpenter, knew which barks could be eaten, so he divided two bowls of rice porridge a day between Sandy and his grandfather.

It's understandable that Sandy has been able to hold on until now, he is a child, and he can always inspire inexplicable vitality, and it is a bit unbelievable that his grandfather has been able to hold on until now. Later, when Peake remembered his grandfather's experience when he was younger, he was relieved. Once, in order to find the cause of his strange illness, my grandfather traveled all over the continent, and it was at that time that my grandfather trained the perseverance that ordinary people can't have.

Many people were exhausted and unconscious, and the team had to take a break to rest.

An old man in white suddenly appeared in Pique's sight, with a snow-white parrot standing on his shoulder.

I saw that the old man possessed and gently brushed the foreheads of those unconscious. In a few moments, they woke up from their coma!

Many people have witnessed this magical scene!

One of the witnesses was Pique, who was muttering a name:

"Agareth, Agareth ......"

Several cavalry commanders appeared behind the old man in white, bowing slightly and looking very humble, and when the old man in white "woke up" all the unconscious people, he ...... step by step It's in front of Pique!

Pique's psychology right now is - excited!!!!!

Yes, it's exciting!

He thought of the hunter's courtyard, of the hunter Agareth!

For Agareth's identity as a hunter was defined by Pique himself, and now it seems that he is most likely not a hunter!

At this time, Agareth walked towards him step by step, and obviously recognized himself! And the cavalry commanders—Barton Mondo, Dardanelle, Shaquille, and Old Nohi—were following behind Agareth......

How could Pique not be excited!

There is salvation!

If Agareth knew himself, he would have been saved!

This is the greatest hope of life that Pique has seen in a few days!

"Pique," Agareth said to him with a smile, "we meet again." ”
