Chapter 45: The Walking Tree

The sky slowly brightened. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Shen Xia and Fang Jin didn't sleep all night, their eyes were a little red, but they still didn't feel the slightest tiredness, staring at the exit on the east side of the forest. From where they were, large swathes of the forest had been burned to the ground overnight, leaving only a patch of white ash. The black smoke and ash of the grass and trees obscured the sky, making the already gray sky even more gloomy.

However, the possible boxwood tree never appeared.

On the contrary, ordinary monsters and demonic beasts fled frantically overnight yesterday, and they have basically been emptied by now. Among them, there are many vicious creatures such as poisonous spiders or man-eating flowers. Shen Xia and Fang Jin were lucky and were not attacked. But the other traversers may not have this kind of good luck, anyway, in the night yesterday, he and Fang Jin heard at least three or four screams.

Since the first time he left the Daoist Academy for night hunting, Shen Xia had seen death more than once, not to mention that he was used to it, at least he could treat it relatively calmly.

Those professionals who have just changed jobs and met the entrustment of Mujiadian and rushed to come in a hurry, and have not experienced the tragic death of teammates or acquaintances in front of their eyes, it may be more difficult. It's just that if you want to survive in this cruel world, this kind of shock is a test that you must go through.

For them, getting used to it early is definitely beneficial and harmless!

However, all the traversers present, including Shen Xia, did not expect that the consequences caused by their setting fire to the mountain were far more serious than they imagined. The fire and the resulting migration of beasts alarmed a nearby group of monsters.

Forest Snowman!

This monster is the strongest existence in the entire Ginkgo Valley, and is said to have the genes of a violent bear. Any adult individual must be at least three meters tall. Ordinary professionals can be hit hard with just one slap. Even monsters like poisonous spiders don't dare to fight it head-to-head.

A forest snowman is so terrifying, what if there are four of them?

No one knew where the monster came from, and when the first forest snowman suddenly emerged from the south and pounced on a nearby traverser, another tragedy was doomed.

With all his attention focused on the possible boxwood and plant essences, the LV2 mage didn't pay much attention to what was going on around him. It wasn't until the forest snowman's huge body covered with brown and yellow hair approached and he heard footsteps that he realized something was wrong. However, by this time it was too late. Although the movement speed of the forest snowman is not very fast, the explosion in a short distance is quite amazing.

The bear roared, rushed up a few steps in succession, and then picked up the almost bucket-thick slap and the five sharp claws on it, and slapped it hard!

This amazing blow, to say the least, must be blessed with more than ten attacks and spiritual light!

Being slapped on the head with a slap, the fatal vital point was attacked, and there was no cloth to protect him, and the hapless mage was almost killed by a slap, and his head was opened.

"Forest ...... Snowman! ”

Nearly a hundred steps away, someone recognized this overlord-level monster in the Ginkgo Valley, and their faces turned white.

However, after being alarmed by the migration of the demonic beasts last night, the temper of the forest snowman is obviously very bad. Killing a single prey is not enough to appease its wrath. After glancing at the corpse on the ground with a slight disgust, he roared, and the leaves near the earthquake fell in a flurry and rushed towards the new target.

Just a little behind it, three other forest snowmen, two large and one small, also rushed out.

These terrifying monsters are not only extremely strong individually, but also know some simple cooperation, just like a wolf pack hunting. The four forest snowmen scattered, each driving away their prey, faintly revealing the signs of being driven together by the targeted traversers!

It's not that the traversers who haven't been targeted are trying to fight back, but for those traversers who are at LV2 and LV3, the strength of the forest snowman is a bit too strong. And the huge size makes their weaknesses very obvious. Even if the traverser's weapon is blessed with the aura of attack, it will hardly deal fatal damage, but will instead anger the opponent and make the forest snowman even more furious.

In a short period of time, three more people died tragically at the hands of the forest snowman.

At this time, the remaining traversers did not dare to stay any longer. Except for a few people who were either unwilling to leave and wanted to fight, or had hole cards in their hands, most of the traversers here cursed and fled in all directions.

Although the grass essence and the promised reward of the Mu family shop are very tempting, it also requires them to have their lives to get it!

If you die, you have nothing.

Shen Xia and Fang Jin were also very depressed, they didn't expect that the forest fire here would alarm the four forest snowmen at once. I definitely can't beat it, but after squatting all night, seeing that boxwood tree may appear at any time, it's so powerful......

Just as he was struggling, Fang Jin spread out his hand and showed a scroll.

A brown scroll with purple and blue patterns carved on it, tied with a delicate tassel belt. This item, which every legendary player is extremely familiar with, is the reward that Fang Jin received through entrustment when he achieved the requirements of the [Debut] mission to become famous.

Teleport the reels!

Even the lowest-tier short-range teleportation scroll has a full kilometer of maximum range.

Although it is not ruled out that it will appear close to the vicinity after use, or fall into a more dangerous situation, it is generally not very likely. In particular, there are few threats in the vicinity except for the forest snowman. It's meant that this short-range teleportation scroll can be a life-saving hole card!

"Then take a risk and keep waiting."

Shen Xia knew Fang Jin's intention and attitude towards this move, and made a decisive decision.

It didn't last long, and after a quarter of an hour at most, the eastern side of the forest was quiet again, with the evacuation of a group of traversers. But the forest snowmen did not leave immediately, but continued to patrol the neighborhood separately. Their sensitive snouts can smell, and there are humans in the vicinity who haven't left!

Little by little, it was almost noon.

The smoke obscured the sky, making the sky more and more gloomy. And one of the four forest snowmen had already stopped and walked to within a few hundred steps of Shen Xia and Fang Jin's hiding place. Even if both of them have been sprinkled with medicinal powder to dispel the breath, but at this distance, it is only a matter of time before they are discovered.

This is when the change happened.

After the fire burned all night and half a day, the boxwood tree that hid in this forest and gave birth to the essence of plants and trees finally couldn't bear it anymore.

Sensing the approach of the sea of fire, coupled with the silence around the forest, as if there were no humans for a while, the boxwood, which had become a tree spirit, took action. Driven by what little instinct it had, it slowly pulled out its roots, walked three steps and took a step to the edge of the eastern side of the forest, and then took the crucial step.

What does a walking tree look like?

In the earth world, no one can imagine. But at this moment, the few traversers who were still bold enough to stay nearby were fortunate enough to witness the walking of a tree.

At that moment, Fang Jin and Shen Xia's eyes lit up, and their breathing became much shorter.

The goal has appeared!

And, closer to them than ever!
