Chapter 403: Your Loss

Xu Yichen followed the path carved out by the giant beast and returned to the place where he was separated from the elven ranger, and did not find any traces of living creatures along the way.

Obviously, the giant beast that hunts itself is also one of the species at the top of the food chain here.

The original makeshift camp had been abandoned, but as agreed, they had already agreed on the location of the next reserve camp.

Demon hunters come here mainly to replenish enough nutrients, and the body that is constantly healing itself has converted all the fat stored in the body into energy.

Walking from the ruins here, Xu Yichen's originally strong muscles were partially broken down and turned into energy to supply the hematopoietic system in the body, generating a steady stream of fresh blood.

Judging by the depth of the footprints, the Demon Hunter estimated that he was twelve kilograms lighter.

This made him realize that before he could obtain more efficient energy replenishment skills or talents, the talent of [Regeneration] was already the limit of what he could bear.

Otherwise, before you die from your injuries, you will be killed by your self-healing talent because of the large amount of energy you consume to recover from your injuries.

The camp was in shambles, and when something unexpected happened, the elves didn't have time to clear all traces and left the place.

This is good news for the Demon Hunter, who needs a lot of supplies to restore the energy reserves in his body.

Xu Yichen, who had rough skin and thick flesh, dug out the supplies that had been buried in advance, and the elves' unique marching food 'Lotus Silk' was neatly stacked in a tarpaulin.

Four bottles of Moon Spring water, enough for five people to drink for three days, were packed in airtight containers and quietly placed next to the 'Lotus Silk'

Deeper underground, bundles of 100 arrows were buried here, along with two mass-produced bows, which were prepared by the elves for war.

Although it is not as good as the exquisite bow that those rangers have spent more than ten years building for themselves, it can be regarded as a fine product in the human world.

The Demon Hunter, who hadn't dug up the arrows and crossbows, and was accustomed to hot weapons, had already seen the gunpowder weapons of the Greenskins when he attacked the Iron Overlord's camp, and he was determined to get a powder gun with enough power to use as his secondary weapon.

Devouring enough food and water for a five-man squad to feed for three days, the Demon Hunter still felt hungry.

The food scattered in the camp was also collected, so that Xu Yichen could have these extra harvests when they were eating.

With no edible supplies to fill the Demon Hunter in this tainted area, the only way he could do it was to quickly catch up with Legolas and his team.

Legolas and another older elven ranger had more than enough supplies in their space gear.

Xu Yichen no longer wasted time, a large amount of food brought enough energy, he cleaned up the traces in the camp, activated the skill of [Wolf Spirit Vision], and chased after the traces left by the elves.

Deep in the forest, a towering tree nearly 100 meters tall stands out from the crowd, highlighting the surrounding trees like weeds.

The surface of the giant tree was covered with a pale green substance like the skin of a toad, which contracted and expanded in light and darkness, as if it were breathing.

There is not a single leaf on the branches, thousands of them are more than one person tall, and translucent biofilm hangs from the branches, like fruits.

A middle-aged man in a black robe with a cat's head badge stood at the top of the giant tree, looked at the dense chaos demons of different shapes below, and said to the people around him: "My stupid apprentice is dead, it seems that the new apprentice in Aragorn is not bad. ”

"I thought I had killed that annoying white wolf completely, I was too careless." The person standing beside the black-robed man seemed to be wearing some kind of mask, and his voice was a little dull: "The vitality of your demon hunters is really tenacious, and it is not unreasonable for my lord to favor you. ”

"We have a lot of skills, if you're not careful, be careful of capsizing in the gutter." The black-robed mutinous hunter said lightly, "When will the condition that the existence promised me be fulfilled?" ”

"Life is a very delicate thing, full of miracles, and although our Lord has fully analyzed the mysteries of life, he still needs enough test subjects to make the most perfect plan." The masked man said to the mutinous hunter, "Your apprentice was a good test subject, but unfortunately you didn't agree to use him for experiments. ”

"Darth Maul is not a pure human, and I said I don't want accidents, I need a more secure subject." The Mutinous Hunter said impatiently, "He's just a mortal who can't see through the truth, and I think the apprentice who walks in your garden now is a good choice." ”

"As you wish, it won't be long before he's on my test bench." The masked man laughed abruptly: "If the experiment on him is successful, what are your plans?" ”

"If he's so lucky, I'll consider making him my new apprentice." The mutinous hunter thought about it for a moment: "A little guy who is strong enough and lucky enough should not be wasted. ”

"My lord has noticed that several other unspeakable beings seem to want to play a role in this great plan lately, and he wants you to keep it safe." The masked man reached out and stroked the fruit on the branch, and a deformed figure inside slowly rolled over.

"Those lost dogs in the white fog are also about to move, can you handle it?" The mutinous hunter held out a finger, and a red ray shot out from between his fingers, piercing the fruit that the masked man had caressed.

The deformed creature in the fruit instantly lost its breath of life, and was quickly digested and decomposed by the surrounding nutrient solution, and then reabsorbed back into the body by the giant tree.

"I warn you one last time, don't add anything strange to the results I want, I'm happy with the human appearance, and I don't want to see the subject grow something in future experiments that shouldn't grow." The mutinous hunter said in a warning tone, "Don't play tricks on me, my temper is not very good. ”

"You don't know what a beautiful life you just destroyed, but you have the final say in your plan." The masked man seemed to sigh regretfully: "I thought you had seen through the truth of this world, why are you still so stuck to this skin?" ”

The mutinous hunter didn't speak, but fired ten fingers in succession, shattering more than a dozen fruits around him in a row.

"Okay, okay!" The masked man said, "I know, but that's your loss. ”
