The forest seems to be much quieter without sunlight.

As far as the eye can see, some of the fungi that grow on the roots of the trees begin to emit a faint blue halo.

The light is not strong, but it is better than a lot, and it also makes the environment in which Anxin is located not so dim.

The dark environment gives peace of mind some security.

There was the sound of a trickle of water in my ears, and the sound of the wind sweeping through the leaves and the crashing of the trees, as if it never stopped.

Anxin leaned against the trunk of a tree and flipped through the manual.

This manual may seem thin, but it actually contains a lot of information, and I want to remember as much as possible.

"This thing, originally called the blue mushroom, also fits the name, huh?" It's just that after reading the introduction carefully, he suddenly found that this blue mushroom was actually non-poisonous and edible......

But the main function is actually to be used as a spice after drying.

There are many insects in the environment where the mushroom grows, and the light emitted by the mushroom at night is actually an energy that can promote their growth.

As a result, this part of the forest has become a habitat for the Punchline Bird.

"Say it's a habitat...... Why haven't I seen one?"

The Witty Bird seen from the illustrated book is purple-red, small in size, with a large palm, but with very long wings and beautiful wings.

Because it's not aggressive, Anxin wants to take a look.

I picked a piece of blue mushroom casually, its rhizome is slender, about the length of a finger, but this glowing thing, peace of mind is really a little hard to swallow.

It's always bad to eat it raw, so bake it first.

Anxin picked a lot of blue mushrooms, which were all over the ground, like weeds.

I found a stone, washed it with the water of the stream, placed it next to the fire, and arranged the blue mushrooms neatly on it.

Anxin began to wait quietly.

He is a modern person who has never been hungry, and the feeling of not eating at the end of the day is indeed a little uncomfortable.

I thought to myself, since it is a non-toxic and edible plant, there is nothing wrong with eating a little bit raw, right?

He lowered his mouth and took a small bite.

Chew carefully, the rhizome of the blue mushroom is very tough, not very easy to bite, and the feeling of eating it is like chewing grass roots, and the taste is very fresh, it is better to say that it is too fresh.

It's a mint that tastes a little weird.

No wonder it was used as a seasoning, and after chewing a few sticks, Anxin's face suddenly became wet when he turned his eyes back to the fire.

A reflex rubbing, but a burning pain in the cheek.

"What's that?"

He exclaimed, hurriedly looking up.

Being in a bright environment, my eyes couldn't adjust to the dimness of the canopy above my head, and I squinted for a long time and didn't see anything.

When I took out my mobile phone from the carrying space of the ticket, turned on the flashlight, and shone it again, I saw a snake wrapped around a tree.

His heart was shocked, but after a closer look, he realized that the snake was dead.

The snake's body was torn apart by something, messy, and died miserably.

What dripped on his face was snake blood, and there was a burning pain on his right cheek, so he hurriedly picked up his clothes that had not yet dried, and ran to the stream to wash his cheeks repeatedly.

But the stinging pain did not lessen, but worsened.

"What a bad luck ......"

He was already very careful, but he didn't expect to be plotted by a dead snake.

There must have been some toxin in the snake's blood, but Anxin couldn't find information about the dead viper from the manual.

Its body was destroyed like that, and there were no features to refer to, and the other half of its body was supposed to have been eaten.

The snake blood has not yet fully coagulated, this guy may have just been killed, and this is also revealing a message to Anxin.

In this creek that Anxin thought was safe, there may be extremely dangerous carnivorous predators nearby, and no matter what the other party is, it is not safe to deal with it.

After packing up his things, Anxin took his backpack, scooped up some water, and extinguished the campfire.

He quickly left the place.

Not long after Anxin left, a figure appeared here, walked to the bonfire that was extinguished by Anxin, took a look, and followed in the direction of Anxin's departure.

As I walked, I ate the blue mushrooms that I don't know if they were roasted.

Anxin's hunger was finally suppressed a little.

His face was not very good, he was obviously very cautious, but he was still careless.

While electronic maps and manuals provide a lot of help for peace of mind, they also limit the mind of peace of mind.

He forgot that this wasn't a game.

It's a real world, and every creature has its own ideas.

While it's true that the north side of Daragul is home to the Punchline Bird, that doesn't mean there will be a fixed spawn spot like in online games, and other creatures can still come and go freely.

And these are precisely ignored by him.

The corpse of the dead snake, although it hurt Anxin, also gave him a wake-up call.

After a twenty-minute walk along the creek, the surrounding scenery did not change in the slightest, and the digital map showed that Anxin had not even completed a fifth of the way through Dharagul.

Along the north side of Daragul, from east to west, there is an orc territory directly ahead.

An Xin wanted to go there to see, although he didn't guarantee that he would not be used as food by the other party, but there was no other way.

To survive safely in this forest, he needs the help of some indigenous people, and he and the manual in his hand are completely unacceptable.

It's just that as time goes by, Anxin always feels that his eyelids are getting heavier and heavier, like a feeling of sleepiness after exhaustion, and his body is also a little weak.

It's clear that you won't be so tired working overtime on weekdays.

The toxin spread......

The toxin in the snake's blood only touched a little bit with his skin, and there was still a piece of redness and swelling on Anxin's face, and he didn't know if the poison would kill him.

And now there is still a long way to go from that orc territory, and even under normal conditions, it will take several hours to walk for peace of mind.

The eyelids that were so heavy that they were fighting wanted to close, but Anxin wanted to keep them open.

The toxin spread quickly, but Anxin's body only felt sleepy and weak, but he didn't know if this snake venom was deadly.

"Hah...... Being exchanged for one by a dead snake is too much of a loss......"

Anxin said in his mouth, his cheeks were a little red, and his forehead was also very hot, so he could only find a stone to sit down and lean on it weakly.

"Whew!"

A bark sounded out of nowhere, and An turned his head and saw a dog.

Dirty, but small, it's clear that this isn't a wolf.

What is it?

"Whew!!"

The other party screamed again, grinning at Anxin, feeling that something was wrong, Anxin leaned against the stone and took out his kitchen knife.

"Go! Get out of here!"

He waved his kitchen knife and looked at the little thing.

But the other party was obviously not frightened by Anxin's action, but was provoked by him, screaming and rushing over like crazy.

In a peaceful metropolis, the probability of being attacked by a dog may not reach 1 in 1,000 in a year, and Anxin also had a juvenile fantasy to show his strength in front of the girl he likes.

But the facts told him that he really couldn't even beat a dog.

Although poisoning is a factor, when the animal, which is not much bigger than Teddy, bites it, the other party opens its fangs, and the speed and reaction are several times more reassuring.

The most important thing is that the other party rushed up with the determination to kill Anxin.

Naturally, there will be a murderous aura, and Anxin is frightened, although he has a kitchen knife in his hand, he doesn't feel any sense of security.

But he didn't want to die yet.

The target of the dog's attack is Anxin's neck, as long as it bites off the neck of its prey, then it has already won half the victory.

Anxin's knife was also swung out, but the speed was slower than that of the other party, and unfortunately, the piercing pain was clearly felt in the forearm of the left hand.

A fishy smell squirted from the dog's mouth onto Anxin's face, and as it gasped violently, the teeth of Anxin's arm were closed with all its might.

While!

The kitchen knife fell.

There is no way to be safe, even if he picks up the kitchen knife, he can't accumulate much strength at a close distance here.

The other party is a living creature, and it will not stand and let Anxin cut it.

But body shape is Anxin's only advantage now, Anxin is glad that this little guy does not have the strength to bite off his arm, and at the same time he calms down in pain.

He took advantage of the situation to hold the puppy tightly, sacrificing his left hand and pressing it to the ground with all his might.

"Whew~!Wow!!"

The other party still did not give up, howling fiercely.

Anxin's other hand went around the back of it and clamped it tightly, and the strength and weight of the whole body were all exerted on this guy's neck.

Anxin wants to suffocate it.

Even the animals of this world need to breathe, and this small animal breathes many times faster than humans, and there is no other way to rest assured.

He didn't even want to sacrifice his left hand if he could.

But...... This is also a helpless move.

"Ahh

He also became tense and purple because of the long time of accumulation.

He felt that he was no longer feeling from the forearm of his left hand, and he was completely pressing the other party with the strength of his elbow.

This little predator miscalculated.

It had been hungry for several days, and he could also feel the breath of peace of mind when he was weak, and the poisoned peace of mind was sore and weak, which was the capital of its desperate fight.

But it's a pity that it didn't bite Anxin's neck for the first time.

Instead, he was pressed to the ground by Anxin with the advantage of his size.

Anxin's body was arched, it was to better exert his strength, but the congestion caused him to be a little dizzy, and he could clearly feel the opponent who was pressed to the ground by himself constantly struggling.

The stench that kept hitting his face dissipated sometimes.

Anxin didn't have much ability to think, he was still pressing the puppy with all his strength, he was afraid that the other party was not dead, so he didn't dare to let go at all.

Eventually, he lost his strength and fell to the ground with his cheeks pressed against the wet dirt, his chest pressed against the puppy, his left hand still stuck in its mouth, and blood flowing.

Anxin's eyes began to blur a little, and the effects of poisoning and blood loss were present on him.

The moment of sobriety gained by the pain had vanished, but he still saw it.

As far as the eye could see, a huge black creature walked slowly from the forest, not fast, but it was a very large beast that could be seen more or less clearly.

It's completely over.

The last scene he saw before he fainted was the big guy rushing in front of him.

Burst!

I don't know if it's a hallucination, but a sharp spear pierced the monster's neck, and the spearhead stuck in the dirt in front of An'an, and the wooden pole swayed.

Anxin lost consciousness, he couldn't feel anything.

The life-and-death struggle with the puppy has been lingering in his mind, and in his dreams, he is constantly being attacked by the other party.

It's night, a starry night.

"Ahh

Anxin sat up suddenly, waving his hands unconsciously, but his left hand seemed to be fixed by something, and Anxin's movement successfully pulled the wound on his arm.

His back was cold, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

The light of the starry sky fell on the bed where Anxin was lying, cold and desolate.

Anxin touched his body and said in surprise: "Not dead?

The injured left hand appeared to have been treated and bandaged.

Looking at the rest of the place, I don't know who took off my clothes, and my pants are still there.

The guy who just undressed himself seemed to be a little rough, his clothes were cut with a knife, and a short-sleeved shirt worn inside became a cardigan.

There is a feeling of fatigue in the body after being drunk, and the left hand is constantly transmitting signals of severe pain to the reinful brain.

It was only after he had gotten used to it that he had time to look at where he was sleeping.

One...... Very simple mud hole.

It was pitch black everywhere, except for a window at the top of the room, which was protected by rattan branches.

That's where the light that I feel with peace of mind falls.

The place where he lay was not a bed, but a layer of hay on the floor, on which some animal skins were stacked in a mess, and there was also a cover on his body, and there was a stench.

At this time, he should have gotten up and gone outside to take a look at the situation and understand his situation.

But lay down with peace of mind.

"Ah...... I was saved. ”

Although he didn't remember much, the last animal that appeared was obviously trying to use him as food, and he was able to wake up alive, so someone should have rescued him.

For the rest of his life, joy was put aside with peace of mind, and he began to reflect on all his actions since he walked into the forest.

Although he was careful, he was left with many questions.

As an outsider, he walked into the forest without fully understanding the situation, and he ignored many important factors.

For example, the smell of your own body, or the smoke caused by your own fire.

Small problems, but they can put him in a dangerous situation.

opened the illustrated book, and with this faint light, I found the identity of the puppy with peace of mind.

[Tooth Beast: A very common animal in Glenflorus, carnivorous, small in size, no different in appearance from dogs, the attack method is gnawing, extremely aggressive, relying on its keen sense of smell and perception of the breath of prey to hunt. 】

Yes...... Do you have a keen sense of smell......
