Chapter 63: The Dark King
Old Barr held in both hands the map made of animal skins, which his ancestors had bought with their blood and lives.
This is not the first time that the black fog around the black forest has subsided, and this black fog will disappear for a certain period of time, as short as three to five days, and as long as half a month.
The interval between the disappearance of each black fog is very long, and the civilization of the Yasenman tribe is becoming more and more backward, resulting in the loss of information, and in the later stage, it is passed on by word of mouth, coupled with the appearance of the Zerg, the life span of the Yasenman people has been drastically shortened, so by the generation of the old Barr, the situation in the black forest is only half-understood.
The Scourge of Cold, the Undead, the Dark King, and Assimilation—that's all Old Barr knew, but the terrain of the Black Forest, the Yasenman tribe, was well documented.
"We're not in danger for the time being."
Old Barr spoke.
"Not dangerous?"
Brother Umbrellaless looked at the dagger on the ground with holes, and he looked like you were teasing me.
"Relatively speaking."
Old Barr's words made the Umbrellaless Brother and the little confused heart tighten, if this was not dangerous, then what would happen to them later.
"Roar!!"
Just as a few people were talking, a roar was heard in the distance.
"It's ...... What is it. ”
The little confused swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and Bu Buwang, who had always been cheerful, also clamped his tail.
"If you're not mistaken, it's supposed to be the roar of the undead, gone, that's what we're going to face."
Old Barr's eyes drooped, he knew the Black Forest better than everyone else, so he was ready to die.
Although Brother Wu Umbrella is a little weak-hearted, he is still at the forefront, which is the responsibility of the Lord Tan.
Su Xiao's position is behind Brother Wu Umbrella, followed by Xiao Mi, Bu Buwang, and finally behind Lao Baal.
The team quickly went deep into the black forest, and it was dangerous to move forward quickly, but a few people had no choice, although Lao Barr said that there was enough time, but he was not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, if he couldn't leave the black forest before the original seed was exhausted, even Su Xiao would die, and after being eroded for half an hour, he would die every five seconds, what a desperate situation.
The team stopped after ten minutes due to the presence of a herd of 'rhinos' in front of them.
Although it is uncertain if it is a rhinoceros, the animal resembles a rhinoceros, but is much larger.
A herd of more than 300 rhinos gathered, and these rhinos were gnawing on the tender grass on the ground, looking up from time to time to look around, their ears pricked up.
The more Su Xiao looked at this group of rhinos, the more strange he felt, rhinoceros did not have many natural predators, so he always showed a lazy appearance, but these rhinos in front of him were different.
"Do you want to go around? There is some trouble with this number of rhinos. ”
Brother Umbrella's proposal was very pertinent, but Su Xiao walked out directly from the bush where he was hiding.
All the rhinos looked up at Su Xiao and stopped eating, their big eyes full of panic.
Su Xiao continued to move forward, if this was on Earth, the rhinoceros herd might rush forward.
An unexpected situation appeared, and the rhinoceros herd scattered and fled like frightened deer, with no intention of fighting Su Xiao at all.
Su Xiao neither drew his sword nor let out his breath, he stood in front of the rhinoceros herd with the breath of an ordinary person.
"These rhinos are so timid."
Little Misty also stood up from the bush, with a few leaves on his head.
"These are probably the animals at the bottom of the food chain, similar to rabbits and deer on Earth."
This is not good news, and this deformed ecological environment shows that it is dangerous.
After half an hour, the trees around the area gradually thinned out, and a tall stone wall appeared in front of them.
The stone walls are grayish-brown and uneven, and this stone wall was built by intelligent beings, and it has been corroded over the years before it becomes what it is today.
It was a ruin, full of stones and half-collapsed round stone pillars.
Walking into the ruins, several people scattered to check the surroundings.
"Come over here."
Old Barr's shouts came, and several people moved closer to Old Barr.
Old Barr crouched in front of a low stone tablet on which he could faintly see the words, which were so vague that only a small part of them could be seen.
"What's written on it?"
Although Su Xiao didn't recognize the words on it, he had seen this kind of writing, which was the script of the Yasenman people.
"The Thirteenth Thirteenth, Cold, Experiment, Failure......"
Old Barr shook his head: "The handwriting is too vague to make out these." ”
The information was of little use, and several people dispersed again.
Five minutes later, several people gathered at the other end of the ruins and continued their march deeper into the Black Forest.
"What information can I share?"
Brother Umbrellaless still walked ahead, the steam of the fist in his hand rising.
"Nope."
Su Xiao was always on guard around.
“……”
No one spoke in the back.
"Little confusion, little confusion!"
Brother Without Umbrella shouted twice.
"Huh?"
The little confused little man who bowed his head and pondered looked at the umbrellaless brother suspiciously.
"What have you found?"
"Nope."
The little confused scratched his head and smiled apologetically.
"Wang, Wang~."
Bu Buwang screamed a few times, but Brother Wu Umbrella and the others didn't understand what it meant.
"It says it smells strange."
Su Xiao helped Bu Buwang translate, and Brother Wu Umbrella and the others looked at Bu Buwang and then at Su Xiao.
"How do you hear it 'speak', no, what it sounds mean."
Brother Wu Umbrella and others were amazed.
"Looks."
Su Xiao's expression was calm, Bu Buwang's meaning was easy to understand, but this needed to get along for a long time.
Barr Sr. at the end of the team shook his head to indicate that he hadn't found anything.
The team became eerily quiet, and there was not the slightest sound except for the sound of stomping on dead branches and leaves.
Unlike the dangers they imagined, except for the poisonous insect they encountered at the beginning, they went deep into the black forest for three hours without encountering any danger.
At first, you can still hear the roar of animals, or occasionally wild beasts running by, these beasts have the characteristic that they are inedible, they can survive the erosion of the source of the black mist, and they have more or less toxins in their bodies.
After four hours of traveling, the surroundings were even quieter, there was not even the sound of the wind, which could only be described as the sound of a needle dropping, in this quiet situation, Su Xiao could hear everyone's breathing clearly.
Brother Umbrella had bruises on his forehead, and now the situation was not as good as one or two wild beasts to attack, and he was under tremendous psychological pressure at this time.
"."
Brother Wu Umbrella scolded in a low voice, his eyes bloodshot.
Under this torment, the team went deep into the black forest for five hours.
"More and more."
Su Xiao suddenly spoke, and the little confused body behind him shrank.
"Scared... I'm scared to death, don't talk suddenly. ”
Xiao Confused wiped the cold sweat from the corner of his forehead, and pressed his chest with palpitations.
"What's getting more and more?"
Brother Wu looked at Su Xiao with bloodshot eyes.
"Something that follows us around, otherwise why do you think it's so quiet, it's those things that scare the beasts away."
Su Xiao pressed one hand on the hilt of the knife, his perception was the most sensitive, so he was the first to notice the abnormalities around him.
