Chapter 45: Drinking Revenge in the Woods
The river rose and overflowed the height of the trees, but it was so strange that it did not rush in, but remained in mid-air. The appearance of the Mystery Forest is like a huge wooden boat, splitting the river in half, and the river water from the outside world cannot enter or flow, as if it has been packed into a transparent glass box.
The surroundings were quiet, and the creatures of the land did not dare to approach it. Through the gaps between the trees, we can see the unique river fish swimming back and forth. If it weren't for the fact that we were on the road, I would have gotten a fishing rod and put bait on it to lure schools of fish big and small into the bait – what a fun fact!
The rumbling sound of the water always gives people a sense of suffocation that a flood will break out at any moment, and I can't help but stare at the river above the trees - it is the time of the sunshine, the water surface is colorful, shining, and dazzling, one by one, swaying with the waves!
"This is the first corner of the Mystery Forest?" I sighed at the wonder of the world, "Look—it's spectacular!" With my arms open and my eyes closed, I looked up and exhaled widely, feeling that it was a wonderful thing to be alive.
My teammates wiped the beads of sweat from their faces and couldn't help but joke to me, especially Luo Yan - this guy is not good at stubble, and laughed vigorously: "Yo! I'm not afraid of this, what happened to you just now? He screamed and strangled the nameless neck, but he didn't want to cut him off! ”
"Don't make fun of me, I know I'm wrong-" I touched my nose, blushed, and glanced at the silent Nameless, full of apologies, "Nameless, I'm sorry, it's me who is bad, I shouldn't have tightened your neck......"
Nameless smiled softly, shook his head, and responded, "It's okay - I know this is the first time you've been attacked by a foreign group!" Don't be afraid, I'll protect you! He forgave me as he rubbed his neck.
Luo Yan's body was like goosebumps, she shivered, squinted at the nameless, hated iron and said: "Look at what you said, the flesh is numb to death - I only know today that you will also talk sweetly!" She couldn't help but nod my forehead and admonished, "Xiaoqiao, you also have to have a heart, so as not to be tricked by him when you get there!" ”
"I see." I tried to avoid the wild goose's hand, and snickered at the nameless answer in my heart.
The talented and beautiful woman glanced at Luo Yan contemptuously, and said unceremoniously: "You are also very good at walking sometimes!" I really don't understand what else you have to offer! Everyone else is seeing it, and you can't see the situation—"
Luo Yan ignored the talented and beautiful woman, only stared at me, stared at me for a long time, and suddenly sighed.
There was no squeak anymore, only the promise was screaming and scolding.
Staring at the front of the dense jungle, I filtered the scolding of the promise, lamented the strength of my teammates, and lamented the corpses at my feet - yes, it was a human body, and I didn't know if it was dead or alive, but after seeing all kinds of weapons shattered and broken, I knew that this group of guys was unlucky!
- That's right, not so long ago, there was a big battle here......
I was also to blame for this: even though I was the regimental leader, I was the lowest level in the regiment, so I was always a drag on the team.
Since Promise joined the team, we have walked for about half an hour. Seeing that I was about to reach the end of the eastern part of the Mystery Forest, my legs were so numb that I couldn't bear to see it, and I proposed to rest for a while—and this break was an incident.
When we found a place to stay, a group of people came out of nowhere, looked at us quickly, showed a smile, and attacked us with all their might—especially me!
When I saw their smiling faces, I thought they were a friendly team, but when I learned that they were doing a trick, they said that they would do it, unequivocally - blame me for not being vigilant at all, and in a daze, I saw that the other party was holding an iron rod and smashing it in the direction of my head!
Nameless and heroic, with sharp movements, hugged me in an instant, rolled on the spot, and actually dodged the blow of the iron rod, and a hole was smashed out of the wrong place.
I was dizzy and scared into a cold sweat: if there was no nameless, then my head ......
I screamed uncontrollably, and then grabbed Nameless tightly, before I realized that I was actually choking him by the neck. Nameless sighed softly, protecting me from the war zone. He stood in front of me, obscuring my vision; And the poor monster one is hiding behind us, babbling in his mouth......
After that, I heard the main combat members of the team, Talented and Beautiful, Luo Yan, Pure Tianya, and Promise, all drinking the names of their weapons in unison, needless to say, they must have fought with each other murderously! From the afterglow blocked by the nameless, I vaguely saw that the four of them were very capable of fighting, especially the promise, and they were very brave, when this guy saw the faces of those sneak attackers, his eyes lit up, like a light bulb......
- Recall the end! I tried to divert my attention elsewhere, but unfortunately the promise was still incomprehensible, and the voice of gnashing teeth still echoed in my ears:
"It's these bastards! When I was leveling up, they attacked me inexplicably, saying 'The Nether will bring bad luck' and saying, 'I have a turkey chicken'! Is there any mistake that they thought Turkey Chicken was a grocer's gadget? How much do you want? It's clear that he came to find ballast on purpose! Say I don't have a family? Say I didn't help? Say I don't have a team? Okay, I'll add a group to open your eyes! ”
He kicked several of them in a huff, and the group was kicked but still didn't wake up.
“…… Of course I couldn't beat them because they bullied me too much, so I came up with a solution: I shouted at one of them, 'How dare you wronged me when you took away the fire cloud chicken'—haha! You don't know, those brainless fools actually listened to my nonsense and besieged the unlucky guy together, and I took the opportunity to sneak away, or I might have to be like them......" The promise muttered in pieces.
"Leveling?" I suddenly wondered how he leveled up, "How do you level up?" ”
"How else can you level up? I'm going to hone my weapon mastery—" he said, gesturing to his left earring, "First of all, I've taken on a lot of indefinite assignments related to ingredients, and second, I happen to have chosen the address where the ingredients come from in this Mystery Forest!" I was hunting a group of pine flowers** at that time? They thought it was a turkey chicken...... A bunch of uninformed fools! He grimaced with disdain.
"Oh, they're too impulsive." I chuckled dryly and began to think about when to head north.
Luo Yan stood motionless, staring intently at the current spectacle, as if reluctant to look away.
The talented and beautiful woman seemed to understand Luo Yan's thoughts, coughed lightly, but said with interest: "The scenery is not bad, if there are not so many corpses on the ground......"
"I'm worried about the river outside the forest, and at some point we'll be swept away......" Strange replied.
"You guys really don't have the ability to appreciate it." It is rare for the pure world to break a big truth.
"Who says I don't have the cells to appreciate?" Luo Yan came back to his senses, frowned slightly, and glared at Chun Tianya in displeasure.
Chun Tianya muttered vaguely, came to a faint man and squatted down, poked the man's cheek with his hand, and exclaimed, "Ah! They're hot—aren't they dead yet? ”
"Just stunned! You wish they were all dead? I don't care......" Promise sneered.
"Of course not!" Jun Tianya hurriedly defended.
Promise squinted at Chun Tianya contemptuously, and punned: "Put away your ridiculous sympathy!" Battles between players don't result in death, just fainting! After night falls, there will naturally be someone to clean up the aftermath for them, and you can't care about it at all! "Although he was looking at the end of the world, I always felt that he was reminding me subtly.
"You're saying the 'national army' will take them away?" Chun Tianya looked unhappy, "Then you can't ignore them!" If they were really in prison, would they still be able to get out? ”
Promise glanced at me, obviously pushing the trouble on me, and sneered: "If you want to care, you must ask our regiment commander first." ”
Chun Tianhou looked at me perceptively and asked, "Xiaoqiao, what do you say?" ”
- What else can I say?
Just now, I had the same feeling as Chun Tianya, but after listening to the promise, I had to re-evaluate this trouble—to help them or not to help them? This is an important question.
Help?
- Yes!
How can it help?
- Do you wake them up, or do you wait for them to wake up before we leave?
Don't help?
- Okay! We left straight away, leaving nothing but waiting for the legendary "national army" to take them away at night!
I despise myself: I really don't fit to be a kind regimental leader! Under normal circumstances, we can't ignore it, but at this time it's about the safety of the regiment - I can't guarantee that they won't have ill will towards us when they wake up! Besides, they attacked and killed first, and even if there is no malice after waking up, I can't guarantee when they will wake up! We can only stay in this mysterious forest for a maximum of twenty-four hours, and there is a high-level mission to complete!
- We ...... No extra time to waste!
"Strange one, can you tell when they wake up?" After thinking about it, I'll ask the strange one first.
Blame stared at those people for a long time before saying, "At least twenty hours." ”
I had a number in my mind, and I glanced at the unconscious team, and the last trace of sympathy in my heart was completely extinguished by the honest answer of the strange one. Chun Tianya glanced at my face and suddenly fell silent.
I thought: you should know my answer.
"Let's go north at once! Head to the top right corner of the forest! My tone sounded cold - yes, I decided not to bother anymore, and to be more decisive when I wanted to leave!
Chun Tianya pursed his lips and didn't speak, but the talented and beautiful woman and Luo Yan didn't care about it, only the strange one and the nameless looked at me in shock, and they stopped talking for a long time. Promise grinned and nodded slightly.
Ignoring the eliminators at our feet, we continued on our road without saying a word.
