674 Tins Forest
Even though the direction had been determined, it still took them a lot of time to get to the new continent, as the chirps that appeared above the heads of the two men became more frequent as the distance got closer.
Like the mountains around the Fenghua Plain, the mountain range where Hulan Mountain is located is also composed of a large continuous range of high and low peaks, although it is not as tall as the Falling Star Mountain like the roof of the world, but several higher peaks are still piled up with white snow all year round, although the continuous snow accumulation for several days has covered up this fact, but the forest that appears on the top of a snow-capped mountain is still an unimaginable thing for ordinary people, not to mention the various beasts from all directions that are gathering towards that place at this time- It was like coming to a lively meeting site, all kinds of roars that had not stopped sounding around the mountain peak one after another, and the heavy footsteps were also accompanied by a huge roar, constantly converging towards the same destination in front of them, and there were also a large number of air visitors gathered in that area, and it sounded like there was no difference from the giant bird that attacked Duan Qing before, which also made Duan Qing and Xue Lingphantom Bing, who were quietly approaching, become more and more cautious.
“…… Why aren't there monsters passing by on our side? ”
"Are you still trying to make trouble for us? The giant bird from before was enough for us......"
"I'm just curious about how they appear, can't all monsters be birds? There isn't even a footprint here......"
"Not to mention them, not even our footprints can survive this snowstorm for more than five minutes, so it's better to wonder if they have the ability to climb up than to wonder if they have left footprints...... Should I wear my white wolf coat? White, your black cloak is too dazzling in the snow......"
The two figures, which were incomparably small compared to this mountain peak, pushed back and forth in the snow for a while, and then continued to move forward along the side of the ridge, and countless giant shadows passed over their heads again and again as they approached, as if temporary camouflage had played a role, these unknown giant creatures did not notice the arrival of Duan Qing and the two of them again, they continued to hover in their respective airspace, and at the same time brought that impressive sound of clarity to the forest one after another. The churning clouds and mist also appeared in the wind and snow in turn as these giant birds fell, and then gradually blurred as night fell, and for a time the cold mountain tops only the sound of the roar of wild beasts sounded, and the little fluorescence that kept flashing from the woods, these fluorescences also seemed to sway back and forth with the constant vibration sounds, faintly transmitting the scene of the beasts there that had never stopped fighting, even the dim wind and snow from the sky above this mountain top, There was never a minute of peace because of the fall of those giant birds.
"They're like they're fighting all the time."
Reaching out to catch a broken feather falling from the sky, Duan Qing, who was lying in the snowdrift on the ridge, said in a deep voice, "Are you fighting for something?" ”
“…… This system is so scientific that it won't even say its name. Xue Ling, who was also looking at the feather, looked at the words "feathers of unknown creatures" prompted by the system, and his originally low voice also revealed a bit of helplessness: "But...... This kind of thing should be able to be used as a material, right? I can feel a lot of energy on it......"
"Something that's broken isn't much use in the way it's designed." Looking up at the white feathers falling from the sky with the snowflakes, Duan Qing's voice replied indifferently, "If you can get the full version of these things, maybe you can do what you want." ”
“…… So what are you waiting for, let's go look for them in the woods. Letting go of the palm of his hand wrapped in white armor, Snow Ling's phantom ice gaze retracted from the white remnant feather flying in the air with the wind and snow: "I haven't sought revenge on that bird before attacking our tent." ”
"We never hold grudges, because our revenge is avenged on the spot." Duan Qing sighed helplessly: "But with our current conditions...... I'm afraid that the enmity between us will get deeper and deeper. ”
"Listen, they're definitely still fighting each other right now." Xue Lingphantom Ice pointed to the front of them and the top of their heads: "As long as we choose the right time, we may be able to fish in troubled waters......"
“…… Then arrange a hunting mission, but you have to listen to me first. Duan Qing immediately turned his head and reminded: "Let's touch it first and investigate the situation well......"
“…… Got it. Finally regaining her composure from the previous series of events, Xue Lingphantice responded in a low voice, "I have only one request. ”
"If you find that bird...... Just remember to leave it to me. ”
The wind and snow in the sky were gradually replaced by dots of fluorescence, and slowly appeared in front of Duan Qing and the two of them, and the gradually approaching pace also began to become clear with the dissipation of the wind and snow, scattered around the snow near the top of the mountain, and finally found the destination that they had been looking for for a day, Duan Qing and the two people who were standing on the edge of the mountain were once again shocked by this towering forest, Duan Qing, who had withdrawn his gaze, then rubbed his slightly sore neck, and then took out his adventurer map: "Tins' Forest...... That's right, this is it. ”
“…… Where are our missions? ”
"Not even a bit of wind and snow seeped in...... It seems that some mysterious force is guarding this place. ”
"It's also possible that the snow here melts away quickly because of the geothermal heat......
Unable to comprehend this mountain that should not appear in common sense, the two of them finally cautiously touched the range of the Tyns Forest, and while dodging the various roars that came from time to time in the distance in the forest, they explored towards this forest that exuded vitality. Despite being surrounded by countless dangers, endless excitement still appeared in the eyes of Duan Qing and Xue Lingxuan Bing, and they advanced little by little along the path opened up by those unknown beasts, stopping from time to time to study the footprints and claw marks left by those giant beasts: "Such a width...... Nails are thicker than arms, right? ”
"Two toes, one meter long and wide...... With such a deep footprint depth, I'm afraid that dinosaurs have come to this world? ”
"Look at this...... It's supposed to be some kind of animal scale, and although it looks thin, it's so hard that I can't break it anyway......"
"This is supposed to be some kind of mushroom that has never been seen before, but it has been gnawed now, and the creature that eats it has a large mouth, and the tooth marks have even been left on the bark of the tree next to it......"
Like a magnified forest, the figures of the two players walking in it seem extremely small, and among these plants, which are larger than the blades of grass than the palm of their hands, there are still many unknown plants that grow on this fertile mountaintop land. In order to bring these items back for unknown purpose, the two had to start discarding some of the items in their backpacks, but even so, the content related to the weight and knowledge reserves became the biggest obstacle to their collection activities.
Of course, this is the result of not counting the countless threats from monsters.
"It's already late at night, so let's find a place to camp."
Bypassing the area where the howls of the two mysterious giant beasts in the distance were once again, Duan Qing looked up at the sky above his head for a while, and then while paying attention to his surroundings, he began to search for a hidden place that could be used to rest: "After climbing the mountain for a day, the character's physical strength will not be able to support it, although I don't know if it is safe to camp here, but there is no other way now......
“…… It's just the right time to take care of the food you bring with you. Xue Lingphantom Ice nodded approvingly: "This way you can bring a little more local specialties......"
"You can not only bring local specialties, but you can also eat them." Pointing to the huge sound that was still coming from the depths of the woods, Duan Qing put on a gesture of whispering: "If you really take the meat of those monsters and eat them, maybe you can increase your character attributes." ”
"I don't want to try that." Xue Ling's expression immediately became a little ugly: "And those herbs you gathered...... Haven't you had any reaction yet? ”
"Although there are no adverse reactions, it should not be the type that can be eaten." As if mentioning some kind of unbearable fact that he had done before, Duan Qing rubbed his stomach and replied, "Just in case, I still left some samples......
"Are you sure those things do anything else?" Xue Lingphantasm Bing frowned slightly: "Instead of bringing those plant samples back, it would be more useful to bring some animal samples......
"I know you're desperate to fight, but it's not the best time." Duan Qing let out a long sigh: "The unknown factors of this forest have far exceeded our imagination, if we make a rash move, I don't know if I will encounter a catastrophe like the Emerald Forest......"
"Now that I think about it, the origin of those villages at the foot of the mountain also seems suspicious." Xue Lingxue turned his attention further away: "Including those villages and towns over there over there...... If they all knew about this place, what was the reason why they kept coming to pay tribute? ”
“…… An ecology that grows in extreme conditions should naturally have a reason why it has become what it is now. ”
Passing by the edge of a towering giant tree again, Duan Qing, who carried the snow spirit phantom ice, came to the back of a huge rock in the bushes: "Including those giant beasts that have gathered here...... Judging from the situation that we have come all the way, they should have come here for some reason, and if we want to find out all the reasons for this in a short period of time, there is probably no possibility for the two of us, and all we can do now is to try to maximize the benefits we have ......."
"If you're unlucky, the fight might only happen once." Speaking of this, Duan Qing turned his head, and his gaze fell on the center of the woods that was emitting bright fluorescence in front of him: "If you can find the target after you get the secret here...... That's for the best. ”
“…… Shall we get some help? ”
Reaching out and taking the corner of the tent that Duan Qing handed over, Xue Ling's expression hesitated for a while: "If we have more people, we will not only be able to increase the success rate of hunting, but also be able to load more resources here......"
"Is that the one who called you Wings of Freedom, or the one who called us the Fool Adventure Troupe?" Duan Qing, who was also holding the other side of the tent, squinted his eyes and asked, "No matter which side of the people come, it's not a candidate that you and I can rest assured of, right?" ”
"Since there has never been any information about this place on the Internet, it means that no player has set foot in this place before." Snow Spirit Phantom Ice's gaze swept over the adventurer's handbook on his waist: "As the first player to come here, it's a shame not to move all the value here......"
"Oh, woman." Nailing the corner of his tent to the green land, Duan Qing pressed his forehead helplessly: "You were the one who said that you wanted to challenge that giant bird before, and now you are the one who wants to be greedy, even if you like to change with your mood, you must have a little awe of these scenes in front of us...... Well? ”
Facing the direction from which the emerald green light came from, he stood quietly for a while, and then suddenly turned around in the puzzled eyes of the snow spirit phantom ice on the opposite side, and pressed his back against the rock face behind the camp he chose, and then a heavy and obvious gasp sounded on the side of Duan Qing not far away, accompanied by a sudden dinosaur head head appeared in the air on the other side of the rock, and a pair of eyes set on the skull like a round gem then shook from side to side for a while, Then he suddenly turned in the direction where the rock where Duan Qing was hiding.
"Whew-"
The deafening roar then sounded in Duan Qing's ears, making him involuntarily cover his ears and curl up, and then the sharp whistling appeared behind the rock with a heavy earth-shaking sound, and even shook the bodies of the two players to the ground, and the giant beast similar to the dinosaur rushed in front of the two people in the next moment, grabbed the boulder where Duan Qing was hiding with one claw, and then flew back to the original direction with a wail in the scene of the boulder suddenly rising.
"I'll ......"
The body was also blown into the distant woods, Duan Qing rubbed his shoulders and slowly stood up, and then together with the snow spirit phantom ice next to him, his shocked eyes fell on the "rock" that had become a living thing: "It turns out that we have always wanted to set up camp next to people......
"Offended, offended."
He muttered a few words, and at the same time took the hand of Snow Spirit Phantom Ice, which was still in a sluggish state, and then turned and fell towards the depths of the forest in the other direction before the "rock" erupted into a roar that shook the heavens and the earth again.
