Chapter 16: The Forest of Terror
Chen Lin has never traveled such a far road in his life.
This is how Chen Lin felt after following Naton's army for a day and a night.
Along the way, there was almost no stopping, and during the day, everyone kept on the road, and when they were hungry, they would take out the dry food they brought with them and chew two bites.
Chen Lin was also given a little bit of this food, and found that this is something similar to dried steamed buns, put it in his mouth, like eating rubber, and the taste is extremely weird. Chen Lin only ate a few bites before spitting it out.
In the evening, everyone seemed to be tireless and energetic, and it was not until the next morning, when Nathan ordered everyone to rest in place for a while.
At this time, there are fewer and fewer deserts, and it seems that they have come out.
Chen Lin lay on the ground, feeling almost exhausted, he didn't say a word, drank two bottles of mineral water with a bang, and then felt a little relieved, and then took a pack of spicy crispy sausages, ate three packs in one go, and then ate a few chicken necks, and finally felt that he had recovered.
He sat up and looked at the sad but angry soldiers around him, and he didn't know what it was like.
Of course, he didn't understand what it was like for their homes to be invaded and slaughtered, and he didn't want to.
"Warrior Naton, the road ahead is dangerous, and I am sure there will be an ambush by the assassins."
At this moment, a soldier whispered in Naton's ear.
"I know."
Naton nodded, his face full of exhaustion.
Seeing this, the soldier showed unbearability on his face and asked, "Warrior Naton, is it okay if you are injured?" โ
"Out of the way."
Naton waved his hand, pondered for a moment, and said, "Inform everyone, take a detour, and go to Carol Forest." โ
The soldier was shocked and trembled and said, "Naton warriors! Although the return trip from Carol Forest is close, you don't know that this forest is a terrifying forest!! โ
Naton grimaced and said, "Of course I do! However, it is also better than being ambushed by Babeka's army and causing the whole army to be destroyed! โ
When the soldier heard this, he wanted to say something more, but was chased away by Natton.
"I've been to Carol Forest in my early years, I'll know how you get there, be careful!"
Seeing that everyone stood up, Chen Lin also stood up.
It's about to start rushing again.
Chen Lin didn't say a word, and followed everyone and started walking.
Within a moment, Chen Lin followed them to an endless forest.
Naton stood in front of everyone and said, "This forest is very dangerous inside, you must follow my steps closely!" Don't touch anything inside! Do you hear me? โ
"Yes!"
Chen Lin was really tired to death, but the soldiers in front of him were pulling him with iron chains, and he had to follow him.
In a few moments, everyone was entering the forest.
Chen Lin was attracted by the scenery in the forest, the trees inside were all stout and overgrown, and the only road less than three meters wide looked like a road, which was loose and soft, and should have been walked out of.
The surrounding flowers are black, iridescent, and red, all of which are abnormal colors that emit an eerie faint glow.
Hundreds of soldiers split into three groups and followed Nadun in a cautious walk.
Chen Lin took his gaze back, and felt that there was nothing peculiar about this forest, not much different from those forests on the earth.
The fallen leaves on the side of the road are also thick, and the color of the leaves on the big trees is also weirdly numb.
One soldier slipped on the soles of his feet from overexertion, tripped over a rock, and fell on the leaves of a tree by the side of the road.
At this time, something strange suddenly happened!
The thick layer of fallen leaves on the ground suddenly moved!
Bang la blah
Instantly wrapped the body of this soldier!
Chen Lin was stunned! If you look closely, where is the thick layer of fallen leaves on the ground, it is clearly golden ants disguised as leaves!
"Help me...... Help me...... Yes!!! โ
"Jill!!"
After that, someone tried to pull him up, and Naton found out about the situation and yelled, "Don't touch him!" โ
But it was too late, and another soldier took Jill's hand, only to find to his horror that dense golden ants crawled all over his body in an instant along his arm.
Drill into the armor, into the nostrils, ears, mouth......
"Oh my God!"
"Ahhh
The crowd kept retreating, lest they too should be implicated.
"Ahh
The screams of pain did not come out a few times, and in just a few blinks of an eye, the two soldiers were gnawed clean by the golden ants, and their bones were gone!
After a while, the golden ants returned to their original state, quietly laying on the side of the road, under the big trees, as if nothing had happened.
The armor of the two was quietly spread on the "leaves", as if to lure the next adventurer.
Everyone looked at all this as if they were dreaming, and everyone's face was written with horror.
"Damn it!"
Naton cursed and said to the soldiers, "Cheer up! Don't touch anything here! After half a day's walk, we will be able to get out of this forest and return to our Carol tribe! Cheer me up! Your family is waiting for you to go back in the tribe! โ
As soon as Natton said this, everyone reacted, said no more, and continued to move forward.
Chen Lin looked at the "leaves" on both sides of the path in fear, for fear that he would accidentally step on the wrong place and be devoured by ants.
Walking cautiously like this, under the leadership of Naton, he finally finished the path.
The trees in front of them are becoming more and more luxuriant, each tree is unusually thick, the weeds on the ground are more than half a meter long, the road is becoming more and more dangerous, and everyone's nerves are tense, and they dare not be careless.
Naton drew his saber in front of him, chopping through the weeds to make way for the soldiers behind him, who also slashed at the weeds and bushes in front of him with their knives.
Chen Lin was surrounded by these soldiers, and he felt very depressed, his clothes had long been torn by the thorns here, and almost all the down inside was exposed.
Chen Lin is in a very unhappy mood now.
Poofโ
Suddenly, a stick-like object fell from the sky and pierced the body of the soldier who was pulling Chen Lin without warning.
Chen Lin didn't react, his eyes widened, looking at the soldier in front of him, who was inserted into the head by a mysterious stick-like object and directly interspersed under his body.
"it!"
The situation was sudden, and everyone looked up, which was good, and everyone, including Naton, gasped!
A huge spider with a pattern of incomparably large size, hanging upside down on a tall tree, hissing and screaming, eight tentacles were waving wildly in the air, and for a moment the leaves were stirred down.
And the ninth tentacle picked up the soldier in front of Chen Lin, and with a strong wave, he threw his body into the distance.
