Chapter 373: Trouble is coming

Just like the first time a demon hunter meets an elven knight, with the elves leading him, there is a lot less trouble in navigating the forest.

Xu Yichen didn't know what magic the elves used, and the group was like driving on a highway in the forest, and the trees and grass hidden in the fog on both sides 'dodged' a road.

The silver-haired witch who rode with the demon hunter did not sit in front of Xu Yichen like in a fairy tale, and was held in the arms of the other party.

Instead, he reluctantly sat behind Xu Yichen, because the half-mechanical war horse summoned by the demon hunter did not consider superfluous passengers in terms of structure at all.

With various diamond-shaped structures, Ephilar had to use psionic energy to lose half of his weight before he could sit comfortably behind the demon hunter.

Even she, who had been trained as a battle nun since she was a child, couldn't help but roll her eyes, feeling that the Seris in front of her had no grace.

At dawn, the group of twenty people traveled nearly twenty kilometers through the Black Forest, taking two breaks in between, after all, the animal companions summoned by the druids were not suitable for long runs.

Not to mention the fact that there are three berserkers who run with brute strength, and in this environment, it is best to make sure that they still have enough stamina left to deal with possible battles.

If Xu Yichen is allowed to walk this distance by himself, even if Alex leads the way, I am afraid it will take a day and a night.

As Legolas, who had been leading the way, slowed down and held out a hand to signal, the entire team slowed down and stopped.

The Demon Hunter looked at the map, and it was not far from the first location marked on the map.

"From here, we can't continue to fast-track." The elven knight rode his horse to the side of the demon hunter: "Further on, the breath of the forest has been polluted by chaos, and our elven clan's 'pathfinding technique' can no longer play its role. ”

Legolas pointed to the forest ahead, and a clear dividing line appeared in front of them.

On the other side of the line, the trees became a little distorted, and the weeds on the ground became a little black.

As the commander of this operation, Xu Yichen turned over and dismounted, and said to the others: "Everyone dismount and walk, do a good job of vigilance, we are going to have fun." ”

"Having fun?" Alex the Ranger was pale, jolting all the way on the giant bear, and he felt his stomach rolling.

Sometimes he felt that the game was so real that even the physiological response of vomiting was perfectly simulated.

"Okay, stop complaining like a woman." The Demon Hunter had just accidentally used the tone he had used to lead the team to describe this mission, and in a hostile environment, Xu Yichen felt that his whole person had been reactivated.

Excitement and fighting spirit, this is the biggest feeling of the demon hunter at this time.

Sending his silver-plated long sword to Alex, Xu Yichen said: "Take it well, if you encounter an enemy you can't deal with, and we can't support you in time-"

"Will there be any special effects?" The Ranger took the sword in confusion, waiting expectantly for the Demon Hunter's answer.

"It will give you courage!" Xu Yichen patted the ranger's stiff shoulder.

Amid the laughter of several Juddenheims, the group stepped into a thick, significantly darker fog.

"When my people disappeared here, the environment wasn't like that." Having penetrated less than a kilometer into the forest, Legolas' face was a little gloomy: "The speed at which the aura of chaos spreads is nearly twice as fast as last month. ”

"Not far ahead, there is an outpost that we set up before, and the rangers who are on reconnaissance missions in the contaminated area have not been out for more than a week." The elven knight said to the demon hunters, "If they get any valuable clues, maybe they will have a chance to get there." ”

"Can you still find that outpost?" Xu Yichen frowned and looked at the strange environment around him.

At the Demon Hunter's side, two towering trees with blackened bark entwined with each other, like a pair of lovers in love, the branches of one tree cutting through a huge curve, holding the other firmly.

No matter how you look at it, this is not a serious tree.

The weeds on the ground smell faintly sweet as if they had been dyed with ink, and if you look closely, you can see that the edges of the plants are as sharp as a knife's edge.

The painting style of the whole forest suddenly becomes a black and white subject, black plants, and white mist, which makes people feel very depressed.

The druids, who were originally silent, were already frosty at this time, and they called themselves the children of the forest, but at this time, in this forest infected by the aura of chaos, they could not feel a trace of the power of nature.

"No matter how weird things you see, at least on the periphery, they can't change direction." Legolas nodded, and said with great certainty: "As an elf who has lived in this forest for nearly one hundred and fifty years, I can find every big tree with my eyes closed. ”

It was close to noon, but in the forest, there was only barely visible visibility to see the road, and under the leadership of the elves, everyone continued to advance towards the depths of the forest.

"I must say that the chaos you are talking about is much more terrifying than I imagined." Kalu, the strongest of the new generation of the Judtonheim people, cut off a tree trunk that grew horizontally and stood in front of him with an axe: "I've never seen anything so weird!" ”

The trunk of the tree cut by the berserker flowed black sap like asphalt, and there were dense and tiny tentacles at the edges, struggling unwillingly, as if trying to catch the part that had left the body.

Karui shook the juice from his axe fiercely: "All this good wood is ruined!" ”

Master Gast rarely agreed with Karui's words: "I'd rather they all be cut down by you to build big ships than the changes that have happened to the trees here!" ”

"Shh The Demon Hunter suppressed the part of his body that belonged to the Pure Fire, and his surroundings made him feel uncomfortable.

But he also did not want to turn into a glittering target in the forest, revealing his position to all possible enemies.

Just as the druid was speaking, Xu Yichen felt a hint of threat, and it felt like a poisonous snake crawling into his clothes, picking out where to put his mouth.

The demon hunter turned his head sharply and locked his gaze on a large tree five meters away, on the bare trunk of which a crow stood at an unknown time.

From head to belly, dense small red eyes were staring at them.
