10 Zone II
Freer was comfortable, but Nicole was really nervous.
Looking at the tall coniferous trees around her, which were more than ten meters high, she knew that she was close to that place.
Behind him, Goldman and Heloise began to look at each other unpleasantly again because of Friel's affairs, and even had quarreled with each other.
"You two shut up!" Nicole couldn't bear it anymore, and finally scolded the two,
She felt that her temper had deteriorated a lot since she teamed up with these two, why couldn't these two guys stop for a while?
Nicole's scolding still worked, at least for now, Goldman and Heloise snorted at each other and stopped making a fuss.
At this time, they also sensed Nicole's caution.
How did a super-level powerhouse who was famous in the whole continent come here like a coward? Isn't it a bit too cautious?
Both of them had this question, and they really didn't understand the way Nicole looked at Nicole holding the big sword tightly and looking left and right with every step.
In just over an hour, they walked less than three kilometers! Gao Man, who was not in good spirits because he didn't sleep well, took a break for seven or eight minutes in this kind of turtle speed, otherwise he wouldn't have the energy to talk to Heloise just now.
After advancing less than 200 meters, the tall coniferous forest began to carry some deciduous trees, which also announced that everyone had finally entered the second area of the Laldo dense forest.
The most obvious feature of Zone 2 is the deciduous trees, which they have been exploring on the outskirts of the Laldo jungle.
Zones are divided from here for two reasons:
First, because of the existence of deciduous trees, the herbivorous demonic beasts here have made a qualitative and quantitative leap, and the prosperity of herbivorous demonic beasts has also driven the quality of carnivorous demonic beasts.
The second reason is the distance, from the Fairy Trail Grassland to here, it is exactly half a day's journey, so this is also the area where most mercenary groups have tasted it. Even if there is a team that wants to hunt high-level magical beasts, it is basically hunting at the edge of the second district, and it will have to retreat after the hunt.
Of course, if there are two districts, there will be three districts.
Because no human has ever explored the entire Laldo forest since ancient times, in order to prevent sitting in the well and watching the sky, humans only named this area with the second area instead of the depths, after all, no one can determine how many areas can be in the entire Laldo forest, three or thirty, and it is really impossible to name a certain area the final area of the dense forest.
The reason why I say three is because in addition to the second area, there are also three areas that human beings have explored so far.
The three known emperor-level demonic beasts are in the third district.
Of course, the strong people who can reach the third district may not be born every hundred years, which is why the mercenary union of Rocky Town has been hanging on the task of exploring the Lardo jungle all year round.
However, as a dense forest that the strong can't look down on and the weak can't enter, this place is still full of too many unknowns.
Finally entered the second district, and even Gorman and Heloise, who just couldn't understand why Nicole was cautious, became speechless.
They also apparently knew the reason for the division of the Lardo forest.
At least in terms of their strength, the second district is indeed dangerous,
It's just that......
Although the demonic beasts in the second area are strong, they are basically some third-order and high-level ones, and some people have encountered them at the super level, but they are very rare, and even if they are really encountered. Similarly, Nicole, who is a super-rank, is not afraid of this, right?
What's more, there is also a humanoid auxiliary plug-in in Violet!
Finally, Heloise couldn't help it, she walked two steps to Nicole's side, and asked suspiciously:
"Captain Xiaobai, what are you worried about?"
"Undead." Now, of course, Nicole will no longer hide it from them and tell the truth.
But hearing this answer, not to mention the smug Heroise and Goldman, even Violet was puzzled.
Undead? The one that wasn't even filmed in Warcraft?
You know, only summoners who really have no talent go back to learn to summon the undead, and necromancers are basically synonymous with weak chickens.
In the aristocratic magic school, you can say that a person is stupid and say that someone is stupid, but you can't say that he is like a necromancer, because it is so insulting!
When it comes to the undead, all that comes to mind is one thing, a pile of bluffing-looking white bones, although they have no sinew or flesh, they can move freely, and some can even use weapons.
The problem is that the real soul level of this thing called a skeleton is only 10 at the highest or even 2.
You must know that a normal adult is the worst, and the soul level can also have 3!
Skeletons, which are undead in the broad sense of the word, may seem terrifying, but in fact they are like toys, and an ordinary farmer can gouge two to death with a hoe.
So no one understood why Nicole was so cautious.
Not to mention others, even Nicole herself was puzzled, four days ago, she came to the Laldo jungle to relax, and when she saw the pile of undead, she rushed up to prepare to 'bury' them without thinking. After all, it's a bit of a shame to have such a pile of bones in this vibrant forest.
Then Nicole was completely stunned by everything that followed, although some of the outermost undead still looked like they were shaking three times when they walked, but the skeletons in the middle moved very smoothly.
What's even more weird is to see yourself rushing forward, and one of the undead actually spouted words! And it was a few words very clear: "Little girl, you seem to be lost." ”
Fortunately, Nicole was not careless at that time, and when she realized that something was wrong, she had already retreated.
Therefore, seeing that one of the undead actually condensed a ball of azure ice soul power in her hand, she retreated without hesitation.
Although she herself is also an ice type, and the damage to her from the same system of magic will be reduced a lot, the condensation degree of the soul power in the opponent's hand is indeed one line higher than her strength!
That skeleton is stronger than itself! This is also the reason why Nicole retreated as soon as she saw it.
This decision saved her, because not only the undead, but several other undead also wanted to shoot when they saw Nicole who was about to escape! Although she had turned around and fled, Nicole could still sense that those fluctuations were no less than her own.
At that time, she fled a few kilometers as fast as she could, but found that the undead were not pursuing, so she was relieved.
Therefore, she didn't pay attention when she saw a strangely dressed human masked man appear and ask for directions, and then she was successfully attacked.
It wasn't until the masked man appeared that Nicole suddenly realized that when she saw the pile of skeletons just now, there seemed to be a living figure in it!
Because it was just a quick glance, she thought she was wrong at first, but the appearance of the big man who had been hiccuping made her understand that it was not an illusion, and that there were indeed living people with the pile of undead.
The powerful undead, as well as the humans, are colluding!
In fact, compared to the undead, the demons and dragons of the fourth realm are the true long-standing enemies of the Holy Alliance, after all, whether it is the demons or the dragons, they are born with great power, and they are all the embodiment of sin!
Although the term "the incarnation of sin" was added later, it also shows the status of the demons in the hearts of other races.
Not to mention Nicole, an ordinary third-realm creature, even Freer, who is a demon king and has lived for tens of thousands of years, knows very little about the existence of undead.
Because no one really wants to know about this kind of undesirable thing, of course, as a demon king, Freel still has some information, such as the undead are not all the lowest skeletons, there are more advanced existences, such as ghosts or undead warriors, and even stronger undead knights and corpse witches.
But even the latter, the strength is stronger than Nicole, which is the so-called super level.
Only once, Freel received a report from his subordinates that he had discovered a lich that was more powerful than the corpse witch, but in terms of soul level, it was less than 10,000.
Even if it is a lich, Freel's long life force has only been heard of once, and the information on the Protoss's side should be almost the same, so the most secret information about the undead is probably like this.
The soul level is less than 10,000, that is, it is still at the earth level, which is one level weaker than after Freer unsealed.
This is also why the timid as a duck Freel would agree to Nicole to solve the undead.
Even if it was extremely unlucky, and he encountered two earth-level undead at the same time, he could easily deal with it! And the probability of this kind of thing is definitely less than 0.0001, after all, he has only encountered one in 50,000 years!
Because the mood was getting more and more nervous, Nicole didn't even answer Goldman and Heloise again,
But there was no need for her to answer, after walking less than a hundred meters, the scene in front of her shocked the entire team, especially the timid Violet, she directly covered her eyes with her hands in fear,
Even the cute elf girl didn't forget to cover Freel's eyes with her other hand.
In fact, although Freel was sealed, its perception ability was still far superior to that of these people, and he had already seen the scene in front of him for the first time:
The towering trees in the second area of the jungle were as if they had been burned by fire, not only lost all their leaves and fresh branches, but even the main trunk was basically half left.
Although these remnants of the trunk seem to have been burned by fire, if you look closely, you will find that it is more like it has been sucked out of all its life, although it is blackened, it is not a trace of flames, but as if all the sap of the whole tree has been forcibly sucked away, and the dry trunk is not only blackened, but also has a sense of shrinking.
The big trees are like this, and the turf on the ground is even more serious.
The Laldo forest was full of life, because the vegetation was too thick, Nicole and they didn't make a sound when they walked before, but in front of them, only Freel's keen observation could see some of the withered grass roots to the limit, and most of the vegetation had already turned into black ash on the ground.
Nicole led everyone to carefully step on the black earth,
This is not the original color of the earth, but the transformation of these plants after death, and the thick black grass ash does not even feel real when stepped on, which makes the breath of several members of the mercenary group become heavy.
Such a sense of desolation and silence is definitely a torment for people.
