Chapter 779: Cabin in the Woods
Chapter 779: Cabin in the Woods
On the flying mecha, everyone is busy processing detection data. Suddenly, Lin Fuzi let out a loud warning sound: "Received a strange space information!" ”
"Oh?" Sun Zhenghong, Xu Yuxin and others stood up excitedly at the same time. The former commanded: "Hurry up and decipher!" ”
"The message reads as follows: We have been in the weird space for the 10th day, and we have not yet found the whereabouts of the captain. A local guide is currently being led through the jungle and only one more river is needed to enter the Principality of Splendour. Special reminder: here the ability fails, and the overall level of technology has degraded to the pre-modern period, where the beasts are fierce and the strongmen are infested. The sender is a wise sheep. Information No. 1189. ”
"It turned out to be a message from Zhiyangyang." Sun Zhenghong's face was happy, "This shows that the Zhiyang Sheep Team is still alive, which is good news." ”
Fei Feng, who was on another flying mecha, added: "The Zhiyang Yang Squad specially carried the traditional transmitter and developed a systematic information transmission plan. The numbering of this message must have had a special meaning for the squad. ”
Xu Yuxin suddenly interjected: "I have a way to know the weakness of the weird space!" ”
"What's the solution?" Everyone looked at this genius beautiful girl with expectant eyes. In the absence of Lin Zaishan, Xu Yuxin has undoubtedly become the candidate with the highest mental level in Zhongcheng.
"Zhiyang didn't know which message could be received by us through the weird space when he sent it, so he numbered each message. This number can be traced back to various parameters such as the time, place, and weather at the time of sending the message. As long as we can get in touch with Zhiyang, we can obtain these parameters and thus locate weaknesses. ”
"That's right!" The crowd suddenly opened.
Mei Yingxue on another flying mecha asked: "The question is how do we get in touch with Zhiyangyang, you must know that up to now, the information channels in the weird space are all one-way. ”
Sun Zhenghong replied for Xu Yuxin: "It's very simple, let's send someone in!" ”

"Bang bang bang", in a loud explosion, the besieging herd of kangaroos scattered and fled.
Lin Zaishan calmly put away his bow and arrows, checked the newly collected herbs on the horses, and made sure that there was no loss, so he continued to gallop on his horse.
The sky was cloudy, and it seemed that an infinite ceiling was pressed tightly overhead, suffocating. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning tore through the dark clouds and struck a lone tree on the ground. The latter suddenly shattered into several pieces and scattered to the ground.
The crotch mount was taken aback, lost control, deviated from the direction indicated by Lin Zaishan, and ran towards a lake in front of him.
At this time, the wind was strong and the rain was falling suddenly, and the huge raindrops caused a large wave on the surface of the lake.
With a hula, a mutant fish with a mouth full of fangs jumped out of the lake, slid dozens of meters on the surface of the lake, and fell heavily to the shore, and then crawled on the ground, opening its huge mouth, revealing its full mouth of fangs, and biting the horse furiously.
Frightened again, the horse turned its head and sped away.
In the absence of special abilities, unless a killer move is taken, Lin Zaishan is helpless against frightened horses that are more than 3 meters tall and extremely strong. He simply left it unchecked, trusted the horse, and went with the flow.
"Brother Ma, I want to see where you can take me."
In the midst of the storm with very low visibility, there were also sharp lightning strikes from time to time. These lightning bolts seemed to be familiar with horses or Lin Zaishan, and they only greeted them.
Frightened by multiple fright, the horses rushed into the depths of a wooded area by the lake.
"Brother Ma, we can't go any deeper, if a beast sneaks up, we will have no power to fight back."
As soon as Lin Zaishan finished speaking, he saw through the dense rain curtain and trees that there seemed to be a large open space in front of him, and there was actually a wooden house in the clearing.
"Huh? Is it inhabited here? ”
The experience of surviving in the last life for many years has taught him that where there are people, there is danger, especially strangers.
He immediately jumped from his horse and jumped onto a tree. At the same time, the frightened horse fell into a pit with a thud and let out a terrible wail.
Immediately rushed out of the wooden house, one tall and one short, two figures in robes, they stood under the eaves of the door with crossbows in their hands to look around, and two fierce dogs jumped out behind them and went straight to the pit.
"Partner, it looks like a large animal has fallen into our trap."
"It's good luck, let's see what we get." Two figures came to the edge of the pit and looked around, "Fuck! It turned out to be a war horse. ”
"Where there are horses, there are people!" The two figures immediately dispersed, vigilantly searching the horse's path.
In the wind and rain, Lin Zaishan couldn't see these two people clearly, but he judged with experience and intuition that the other party would never receive him "warmly and friendly", so not only did he not show up, but he hid more hidden.
After a while, the two figures with crossbows returned with the dog, and said as they went: "Partner, the dog did not smell people on the ground nearby, and I think that the rider is very likely to have died halfway through, and this horse has lost control and ran here." ”
"Well, we'll wait until it's sunny before the dogs go out. Whether the rider is dead or alive now, he will become food for the dogs as soon as the weather clears. ”
The two figures turned around and led the two large dogs into the house, and closed the door with their backhands.
"Why do I feel so familiar with these two people?" Lin Zaishan quickly searched for clues in his memory.
Another flash of lightning appeared in the air and struck a nearby tree, interrupting Lin Zaishan's train of thought. It was obviously not safe to stay in the trees during this kind of rainstorm, but Lin Zaishan remained calm, hiding behind the forks of the trees and not moving.
Behind the window of the wooden house, two pairs of eyes were focused on the tree. When they saw that even the lightning strike did not startle any unusual movements, they finally relieved themselves.
After enduring many rounds of lightning threats, Lin Zaishan was convinced that the time had come, so he quietly climbed down the tree from the back.
He is now faced with two choices:
First, get out of the place as soon as no one is looking, so that at least you don't get entangled by the owner of the cabin and their vicious dogs; But you will lose the medicinal herbs that you have so hard to gather, which can save Trinity's life.
Second, try to get close to or even enter the hut to find out, wait for the less hospitable host, retrieve your medicinal herbs, and then find an alternative means of transportation to leave when the weather is clear.
"Looks like I have to choose the second option."
Under the cover of heavy rain and darkness, he cautiously approached the wooden house.

On the flying mecha, Sun Zhenghong has selected 2 expedition teams, the first team leader is Wang Ziqiang (including his two dogs, Le Le and Huanhuan, of course), and the main task is to track Zhiyang Yang; The leader of the 2nd detachment is Wu Chaoqun, and the main task is to find Lin Zaishan. Each team has 10 capable players and carries weapons and equipment from different technological eras to deal with every eventuality.
Sun Zhenghong advised: "Outstanding and self-reliant, you must be careful when you go." Zhiyang Yang mentioned that in the strange space, the ability fails, the beast is fierce, and the strongman is infested. ”
Wu Chaoqun smiled: "I hope everyone has no special abilities. Don't forget, I'm the King of Special Forces, and I don't have any abilities, it just makes me look stronger! ”
Sun Zhenghong nodded, in the pre-modern environment without abilities, there were indeed not many people who could have more advantages than a special combat soldier king like Wu Chaoqun.
Wang Ziqiang did not show weakness at all, "It's not terrible if the ability fails, I still have Lele and Huanhuan, and my marksmanship is top-notch." ”
The rest of the team members also expressed their positions.
Sun Zhenghong was still not at ease, and asked Mei Yingxue, Xu Yuxin and others remotely, if there was anything to add.
Mei Yingxue said: "I suggest you bring more crystals." Your people mentioned ability failure, but they didn't say crystal failure. Wouldn't it be a great tactical advantage if the crystals could still be used? ”
"Good idea." Sun Zhenghong immediately ordered someone to prepare a large number of crystals.
Xu Yuxin said: "I have one request for you: monitor and record environmental information anytime and anywhere, and send it continuously, which should increase the probability of being received externally." ”
The two expeditions were ready and began to choose where to enter.
Wang Ziqiang's team undoubtedly entered from the footsteps of Zhiyang, while Wu Chaoqun chose a completely different angle on the diagonal of the weird spatial energy boundary.
After Wu Chaoqun and the others entered and disappeared into the ground jungle, Sun Zhenghong and the others stared nervously at the big screen, hoping to receive their messages as soon as possible; To their disappointment, however, many hours passed without a response.
Looking at Xiao Sa, who was restless, Xu Yuxin sneered: "What? Some beauties are thinking about their sweethearts again? ”
Xiao Sa said worriedly: "If the ability in the weird space is invalid, wouldn't Lin Zaishan lose his advantage." ”
"Teacher Lin has excellent intelligence and cunning, and he will definitely be able to turn auspiciousness into good fortune when he is in trouble."
"That being said, I'm still not reassured. In any case, I must join the 4th expedition! ”
"If all goes well, maybe we won't need to send a new expedition."
"Are you really sure you're cracking the weird space?"
"The key lies in two points: first, to locate the weak link in the strange space, so that from there there is a steady stream of information; Second, find Mr. Lin or other people who are inside the strange space and are familiar with the secrets of the space, and provide support for my cracking. ”
"Okay, I hope that Lin Zaishan is strong enough and has a big life."

Outside the wooden house in the strange space, Lin Zai hid under the eaves of the bobcat. To facilitate follow-up, he had removed the armor that looked too bulky after the shower. At this moment, he carried a bow and arrows, hung a double sword at his waist, held a dagger, and other weapons and equipment fell into the pit with his horse.
There was a loud snoring sound from inside the wooden house, and it was clear that the owner had fallen asleep; But the occasional dog barking prompt is not unguarded.
Lin Zaishan felt the window, and then by the fireplace he saw two huge dogs squatting on the floor on the first floor, they couldn't help but be strong, fierce-looking, and quite dedicated.
Lin Zaishan had no intention of entanglement with the dogs, as long as the door was kept closed, they would not pose a substantial threat to him. He circled the hut, dodged 3 traps, found a spot for the raid, and climbed lightly to the second floor, where there was a small balcony.
He crouched on the balcony and looked inside, but there was no light inside, and only two snoring sounds were heard in a symphonic concerto.
Lin Zaishan slowly knocked on the small door of the balcony with a dagger, then took a deep breath and entered the room.
As soon as he stepped on the floor of the house, he felt something fall above his head, and he hurriedly fell to the ground and rolled over; But it's still over. A large net was under his hood and entangled him. Then, the lights suddenly turned on, and the two masters who were sleeping soundly actually pointed their crossbows at him left and right.
"Ha, partner, what you expected is not bad, there is really a thief who breaks into the house."
"Let me see who he really is." One of them brought the oil lamp in his hand close to Lin Zaishan's face, and then the three of them exclaimed at the same time!
"It's you!" "It's you!"
