Chapter 371 Weathered Forest
One of the team members couldn't help but suggest: "Captain, this sea of flowers is so terrifying, let's burn them all in one fire, right?" ”
"There's no need to waste precious fuel, let's go." Pete shook his head, the hunting method of these strange flowers should be just waiting for the rabbit, and if you pay a little attention, you won't be hit, and it's strange that the guy just now ran around like a headless fly.
After moving away from the sea of flowers, Pete ordered the spot to be repaired, and Mr. Jindu took out a very rudimentary hand-drawn map and looked at it with him, while the strong man stood by and did not let anyone approach.
"Pete, judging from the map, we should have come ashore not far from the canyon, and if we had walked directly through this weathered forest, we might have reached our destination in two hours," said Mr. Kindo. ”
Pete hesitated: "Master, according to the signs on the map, this weathered forest is very dangerous, I think it is better to avoid it." ”
Mr. Jindu shook his head: "You are wrong, it's not that the weathered forest is dangerous, but the entire underground world is dangerous, and the oasis is even more so, so to speak, there is no absolutely safe place here at all, if the time drags on too long, the danger will only get higher and higher, we must solve it quickly!" ”
Although his words were very reasonable, Pete was still a little hesitant, after all, the lives of the whole team were in his own hands.
There are only three skeleton locations on the map, one of which is the Weathered Forest, which must be an extremely dangerous place in the oasis!
"Don't hesitate, as long as you can get the blood of the earth dragon, I will double the reward and give you a billion euros!" Mr. Jindu said demagogically, "After deducting the pension and their remuneration, you can still keep at least seven or eight hundred million, which is enough for you to spend money for the rest of your life and live an upper-class life!" ”
Pete was moved, the reason why he worked hard for Mr. Jindu was because he owed a huge gambling debt, if he could really get so much money, not only would he be able to live without worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life, but he would have no problem gambling as much as he wanted!
"Alright, we'll walk through the weathered forest."
After making up his mind, Pete immediately went down to make arrangements, and for the sake of safety, he also arranged for two quite clever team members to explore the way first.
The two mercenaries, one named Jonathan and the other named Rogge, have followed Pete for many years, so they are naturally brave and experienced.
However, in this bizarre underground world, they are also a little blind, and since the captain has given the order, they can only bite the bullet.
The two of them prayed to God while exploring the way, don't let them meet any terrible aborigines, otherwise they will definitely have to stop cooking!
Maybe it was the prayer that worked, they didn't encounter any monsters along the way, and after more than ten minutes of galloping, a large area of weathered plants in the shape of a giant umbrella could already be seen in the distance, and these mushroom-like things were layered on top of each other, giving people the feeling of straying into a fairy tale world.
Because Pete had confessed, the two didn't dare to drive straight in, but found a high point outside to observe carefully.
There was a dead silence in the weathered forest, there seemed to be no living thing in sight, and the giant mushrooms were dead gray, with a dry and cracked surface, and I don't know how many years they had been dead.
After observing for a long time, neither of them could see any danger in the forest, so they simply walked in cautiously with their guns in hand.
After getting closer, a rotten musty smell came to their faces, so they couldn't help but cover their noses, the forest was quiet, only the sound of two creaking footsteps, and there was a thick layer of gray substance on the ground, because it was loose, so it would make a crisp sound when stepped on, and it sounded quite decompressing.
The two of them only searched a small area on the periphery before returning to their lives, and after learning that there was only a pile of mushroom fossils in the weathered forest, and there was no danger at all, Pete was also quite happy, and quickly let the team go.
Uncle Da's task has basically been completed, so there is no need to lead the way after hitting the oasis, he and Fang Ye deliberately fell to the back of the team, the idea is very simple, if there is thunder, let others go first, if you really meet any aborigines with the strength of the sky, then there is enough time to run away, there is no need to risk your own life.
The Jiang sisters were not too far away from the two, but because Pete had warned them before, they didn't dare to lean over.
The oasis lives up to its name, and as far as the eye can see, it is full of lush flowers and trees, except that these plants look a little weird, and it feels almost the same as the environment on the island, and it is not at all as desolate as the underground world that you have passed through before.
Fang Ye held a piece of beef jerky in his mouth, and asked as he walked, "Uncle Da, looking at their posture, it seems that the purpose is very clear?" ”
Uncle Da said in a low voice: "If you guess correctly, they should have the oasis map drawn by my brother back then, and as for the destination, there is a chance that it is the canyon where the giant earthworm was found." ”
Fang Ye said with a smile: "Sure enough, rich people are afraid of death, so Mr. Jindu must have come for longevity medicine." ”
"Not necessarily, if he is just for longevity medicine, there is no need to go into danger by himself, just stay on the submarine and wait for good news."
"Aren't all foreigners adventurous, and it's normal to die."
"Maybe, my brother didn't tell me much about the oasis back then, and he probably didn't want me to set foot here." Uncle Da smiled bitterly, "It's a pity that providence makes people, and after ten years, I still came." ”
Fang Ye slapped his thigh: "Then I am much more wronged than you, I was poked by a fish!" ”
Uncle Da: "......"
The two chatted and chatted, the vanguard had arrived near the weathered forest, and Pete observed for a while, and sure enough, he found no danger.
After all, it was a map drawn ten years ago, and maybe those powerful aborigines have already moved.
The weathered forest wasn't that big, and the black mountains in the distance were already visible, and that was where the target canyon was located.
"It's just some old plant fossils......"
Pete waved his hand, and Jonathan and Rogge, who were in the lead, immediately led everyone into the mushroom group, and everyone put on gas masks for fear that the dust on the ground was poisonous.
At all times, Mr. Kinddo would be in the middle of the procession, closely guarded by Pete and the loyal strong man, his eyes constantly looking at the mountains, evidently impatient.
The team was moving fast, and just as they were entering the heart of the weathered forest, Jonathan suddenly saw an oval-shaped giant egg under the mushroom tree!
He gestured backwards, and everyone immediately stopped, and Rogge walked lightly, only to see that the giant egg was the size of a rugby ball, milky white and translucent, and a black whirring thing seemed to be visible in the center......
