Chapter 184: Covering the Sky Forest
The branches and leaves are heavy and the light is impermeable, and the sky also needs to carry a lantern to swim.
Taken literally, this means that the forest is overgrown with trees and thick foliage, blocking out all the light from the outside. Even if you enter during the day, you need to light a torch or a candle inside to see the route and things inside.
However, in fact, when Bing Han, Jiaoyue and others were outside, no matter from any angle, they looked at the interior of the Shade Forest, but found that inside the Shade Forest, the trees were not so prosperous, and the branches and leaves were not so dense. As for the sun's rays, it shone very clearly into the forest, and it seemed to be quite bright inside, not as dim as those two sentences said.
Since there is no consistency, then everyone naturally does not take the meaning of these two sentences to heart at all.
But just as the group of them all walked directly into the Covering Sky Forest, they suddenly felt that the light around them suddenly dimmed.
Liandie couldn't help but say in surprise: "Oh, it can't really be like those two sentences, in the forest, we need to light a torch, so that we can continue to find the location of Xu's Villa here!" Shall we light the torches now? ”
Mo Yan said: "Don't worry! We've just come in from outside, and the sun is shining brightly outside, so when you suddenly come in here, you will feel the light dim instantly. In the process, as long as we get used to the light, we won't feel how dim it is. ”
Several people all nodded, it is true, everyone has actually had this experience.
However, Thunderbolt Rose said, "Actually, you see, the inside of this shading forest seems to be a little different from what we see outside. It's not just that the ambient light has dimmed now, but lo and behold, from the outside, the trees are not very tall, they seem to be much taller, and the branches and foliage are not very dense in the first place, but now it seems that even the sky is invisible! ”
was reminded by the thunderbolt rose, and everyone realized that it was indeed like this.
From the outside, how to look at the inside of the shading forest, it is all well-lit, and it is not as lush as the two sentences say. But now, I really feel a little bit of a correspondence with those two sentences, standing under the trees in the shading forest, when I look up, I can't see the slightest color of the sky, it's all leaves, all kinds of trees, all kinds of leaves.
After discovering this, everyone also had another feeling about the sudden dimming of the light in this sky-shading forest.
Everyone has had their way into a room from the bright light, and there was a dim situation in front of them that they couldn't get used to for a while. At first, they walked in, thinking that this was the reason why everyone thought it was a little dark.
But now it seems that things are not that simple.
What had changed at this point was not just a matter of foliage and light, but they also found that when they looked back, they could no longer see anything in the direction in which everyone had entered.
It stands to reason that they had just walked into the Heaven Covering Forest no more than fifty meters away, maybe a little more than thirty meters. At such a distance, even if the trees are quite dense, you should at least be able to see the stele and other things before you come in. As a result, now there is nothing to see, and in their eyes, except for the trees in the forest, they are the trees in the forest.
"What kind of formation exists in this Heaven Covering Forest! Are we being teleported directly to another enemy? Bing Han asked in dismay.
Su Ying said, "That's impossible. Although we don't have exact data on the extent of the Shade Forest, it is definitely not as simple as we imagined. Also, this Sky Covering Forest is directly facing the direction of Snow City, and the teams of those northern countries a few days ago are also attacking Snow City from here. ”
"That's right, none of them encountered any danger, and they successfully launched an attack on Snow City, so there shouldn't be any big formation in this Sky Covering Forest." Jiaoyue invited light to say. "What we're experiencing now may just be the normal situation of the Shaded Sky Forest."
Lian Die said: "Then what do you think, could this be a trap deliberately set up by those guys when they retreated?" We have Syracuse to guard the border, so this team of the northern countries should also have their own means! Otherwise, wouldn't we be able to enter their country at will! ”
"It may exist, but it doesn't have to be the case." Zhu Xin said. "In the world, every country has its own system, so there will not be two countries with the same martial arts and abilities. If we talk about the formation, even if there is one here, it should not be left by the teams of the northern countries, we may be able to see that it was arranged by the Xu Clan Villa in the Heaven Covering Forest. ”
Hearing Zhu Xin's words, everyone nodded.
This argument should be considered the most plausible explanation. After all, this Heaven Covering Forest is the enemy used by Xu's Villa to hide his traces. If anyone could walk smoothly in the Sky Covering Forest and trespass casually, then Xu's Villa would have been discovered a long time ago.
"Okay, no matter what the reason is now, it has caused changes within the Shatian Forest, but at least we still need to continue to look for the existence of Xu's Villa." Jiaoyue invited light to say. "From here, we should head northwest, but it's easy to get lost here, so you have to be safe."
In this way, the ten people carefully and completely walked into the Heaven Covering Forest.
When they walked in a little deeper, even if they knew thoroughly, the two sentences on the stone tablet were really not wrong at all. Although they didn't need to light the torches now, the light had already dropped to the lowest point, and they could only barely see each other, and this was still no more than ten meters away, otherwise they would not be able to see people at all.
Later, in order to adjust the direction, they also found that they could not even go up to the top of the tree.
It's not because of the thousand fingers that have the best light skills among them, but there is also a problem, and the problem is on the trees that cover the sky.
Whoever tries to go to the top of a tree to see where it is now, and no matter how much they climb up, they can't climb to the top of the tree. It's as if the tree has been growing all along, or has reached the sky. At most, Thousand Fingers walked up a certain tree for nearly half an hour. At his speed, he also rose at least a few hundred meters in height. As a result, the top of the tree was still not visible, and almost all around were trees that could not reach the top.
If you can't determine the direction, it will definitely not work, because even if Jiaoyue invites Guang to get a certain amount of information about Xu's Villa from the token of Xu's Villa, but without the direction, it is impossible to find the location of Xu's Villa.
Almost for a while, several people were completely caught up in the situation and did not even dare to act. Because I was afraid that there would be no direction, it would be the opposite, and finally it would be farther and farther away from the location of Xu's Villa. It wasn't until the next day that Qin Tiancheng came up with a solution.
In fact, this method can't be regarded as a surprising idea, that is, Qin Tiancheng, who is proficient in mechanical arts, selected relevant resources from some materials carried by several people, and then made a compass.
It's no surprise that maps are not easy to use in such an environment. However, the situation in the world is completely simulated in reality, so that this kind of compass can be used completely. The reason why they had never made it before was because they didn't need it, and when they had the time to use the compass, they had already judged the specific direction from the tip of the tree. If it weren't for the special situation on the side of the Sha Tianlin, it is estimated that Qin Tiancheng would never have made a compass that is rarely used.
But making this little thing, it doesn't seem to be too much craftsmanship, but it wastes half a day.
Even, Qin Tiancheng didn't go offline to eat at noon, just because he suddenly found the key to the problem, and then he had to make a compass. Everyone understands this truth, but everything that makes something needs some inspiration, and when inspiration comes, the maker generally doesn't want to be interrupted. Therefore, in the end, Qin Tiancheng made this compass at noon.
In the afternoon, when the group of people were waiting for the line, Qin Tiancheng handed over the compass to Jiaoyue to invite light, and then went offline to eat, as for resting, there was naturally no time. He didn't want to waste too much time, after all, everyone had already wasted more than half a day here, and the night before hadn't made much progress.
By the time Qin Tiancheng returned to the world, Jiaoyue Invite Guang had already determined the direction of the route that everyone was about to take according to the instructions of the compass and the current location of several people.
It can be said that with the existence of a compass, it is no longer a problem to be dim and unable to discern the direction in this shaded forest. Coupled with the information on the token of Xu's Villa, Jiaoyue Invite Light can easily find the route that several people need, and in a short time, bring everyone to the possible location of Xu's Villa. The next thing they had to do was to hurry as soon as possible while guarding against the fierce beasts in the Heaven Covering Forest, so that they could find Xu's Villa faster.
In the Shatian Forest, although the environment is quite bad, they still like it here.
Due to this situation in the Shade Forest, there are quite a lot of resource types in it. In many cases, they were able to discover herbs, precious ores, and many more that they had never seen before. Whenever they encounter a new resource, they are very excited.
Perhaps for Bing Han, Zhu Xin, Mo Yan, and Thunderbolt Rose, these resources are just used to improve their strength. However, Love Butterfly, Su Ying, Qin Tiancheng, Invisible, Jiaoyue Invite Light and Thousand Fingers are different.
Any kind of resource, in the world, must have this necessary significance. Moreover, the most used resources are often the gangs and guilds among the players, so it can be said that in normal times, they are mainly hoarding all kinds of resources. Whether it's a large-scale mission, a guild war, a siege war, or even a national war to be fought in the later stage, all that is consumed is resources. Whichever one has more resources will gain an absolute advantage in the battle.
It's a pity that now this side of the Heaven Covering Forest belongs to the scope of the northern country, if you want to occupy the resource points here, then you have to open the guild over, and that is the real national war that will break out!
Still, at this point in time, they don't have anything to worry about.
With the ability of the ten of them, in the Shatian Forest, that is, with a compass, they are moving forward. Even if the opponent's team exists in such an environment, then they don't need to worry, they can use the advantages of the environment to give full play to the strength of their ten people, and they don't have to worry about being caught.
In this way, they traveled in the dim Heaven Covering Forest, and it took two days, and in these two days, they simply felt like they had traveled in the Yiqi Yunfu Mountain for more than ten days before, and even more easily collapsed than there.
As far as the eye could see, it was all dark. If it weren't for the occasional encounter with some creatures in the Shade Forest, and a few fights, it is estimated that they would have already felt that they had walked into the abyss of hell and would never see the light again. If you continue to walk like this, I'm afraid that even the formless and plain shadows that have always been calm will not be able to withstand the oppressive atmosphere of such an environment.
But fortunately, after two days, they finally realized that something different had happened in front of them.
It was as they were moving forward when they suddenly noticed a bright light in front of them. Subconsciously, they all covered their eyes at the same time, and after a while, they gradually got used to it.
When they re-examined the situation in front of them, they finally determined that the trees in front of them had suddenly dropped low, or that they had already passed through the Shade Forest, or that there was an area over there that was devoid of trees. In short, everyone who has not seen the sun and blue sky in the world of rivers and lakes for three or four days can finally see the light of day again.
After discovering this, almost all ten of them made a comfortable sound, and immediately walked in that direction.
