Chapter Fifty-Six: The Deviant

When they woke up, everyone straightened out and went their separate ways.

As Minaki told Hirion that his other two companions had died on the spot, Ikar's mood after a night of calm suddenly became in a trance. Hirion asked several people for help, but Minaki and his party had to quickly go to the depths of the Demon Mist Forest to investigate the situation, and Vance and his party were all wounded except for Colis, and everyone had their own difficulties, and no one could help Hirion.

Hilion's plea for help was fruitless, and he left with Ikar alone.

As for Vikz, he didn't return all night, and no one knows where he is now. Hirion pulled Ikar out and left his lonely and tall back in everyone's heart, where will the fateful master and servant go in this forest?

The rain in the forest is already a little lighter than last night, but it is still boundless, and the next rain does not stop. The rain and mist drifting softly like a light veil have been flowing through the forest since the morning.

The misty white mist was mixed with rain, and the four of them were silently burying their heads on their way. After a night of heavy rain on the ground, there were already puddles everywhere, and the three of Vins advanced with their hooks, while Colis was still flying in the sky.

The speed of Minaki's group could have been caught up with them if they had used their hooks. But before they go deeper, there is such a powerful enemy as the Sheep's Head Demon, and no matter how deep they are, Minaki and they may not be able to protect these few who are dragging their feet. Besides, Vins didn't have the cheekiness to trouble others anymore.

The four of them had a small meeting about the future of the team, but finally decided to move slowly and always keep the same pace as the main team. Now that their combat strength has been greatly reduced, all they can rely on is a small distress firework in Corlis's hand.

It's just that as the expedition progresses, there are fewer and fewer survivors, and even fewer have the spare power to help others. Everyone's props are now almost consumed, and once the fireworks are released, it is difficult to say whether the people who come will rescue or take advantage of the fire to rob.

The cold rain hit Vins's face, and his heart slowly cooled.

Is there really a tomorrow?

The four of them marched through the air, taking one step and resting two steps. After all, it's raining heavily, and others moving on the ground will only be slower. If the four of them were to throw off the large force and enter the area that had not yet been cleared, it would be absolutely devastating for their current situation.

"You say, didn't we team up with Hirion just now?"

In the endless cold rain, Tiki's words loomed, and he couldn't really hear them.

Colis sighed and said, "If he is the only one left, it is not impossible to form a team again." With him, it just fills the void during the period of Vince's injury. It's just that he also brought a young lady who hadn't been through the wind and waves and was scared to the point of delirium. He was bent on protecting his master's safety, and when it came to life and death, I was afraid that he would take the eldest lady and run away first. How dare I team up with such a person?"

Hearing this, Tiki lowered his head for a moment. In fact, she is not only thinking about herself, the figure of Sirion walking into the heavy rain with her little master pierces her heart from beginning to end.

If she could, she would also like to leave here with the two of them. But since ancient times, in this endless dense forest that has not been explored by humans to the end, there is no shortage of dead people.

Just as the four of them were slowly moving forward, adventurers everywhere in the Demon Mist Forest gradually woke up, licked their wounds, said goodbye to their lost and dead companions, silently put on their raincoats, and set out on the road ahead.

This is a bloody slaughterhouse, a human purgatory with no way out. Brokeron has been put under martial law by the Black Guard, and everyone's way home has been blocked, and no one can be a deserter. In the face of monsters whose strength and numbers are far stronger than themselves, human beings can only hope to survive if they are together. As long as someone dares to take a step back, they are very likely to be surrounded and hunted by fish that have not been cleaned up.

However, the deeper you go, the stronger the monsters become, and the number of props that people can rely on becomes scarcer. Even Joel, who has two-star strength, was useless in yesterday's battle against the sheep-headed demon, and the situation of an adventurer with one-star strength can be imagined.

Since yesterday, many people have already chosen to commit suicide in desperation.

Instead of being torn apart by monsters, it is easier to kill yourself.

"Today is the first day we've entered the Demon Mist Forest?" asked Joel, who was walking forward, as if suddenly thinking of something, to the other three.

Days of high-intensity fighting and vigilance, a day passed longer than the usual two days, not to mention Joel, even Vins, who has always been very calm, was a little in a trance and couldn't remember the days.

Titch was a little uncertain and said, "If you don't count the afternoon of the first day, it should be ...... Day 3. ”

On the first day, the strength of the monsters was average, and everyone advanced quickly, and they chased the footsteps of the large army for a day. The next day, yesterday, they encountered Hirion and his party, and the sheep-headed demon. So, today is indeed the third day.

"Well, that's good. Joel suddenly seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Hmm, what's wrong?" asked Corlis, a little puzzled.

In the rainy weather, Joel squeezed out a rare smile and said, "When I went to the City Lord's Mansion to look for Vins that day, the City Lord's butler told me that as long as we can hold out for three days, reinforcements will come. ”

Collis raised an eyebrow in surprise and said, "How come I haven't heard of it?"

Wens only then remembered the butler's words, and his mood suddenly lifted a lot, and he nodded vigorously.

"Ah......?" Collis's eyebrows squeezed together in confusion, "Why didn't you disclose such important news to us in advance? Not only can it be exciting, but we can also make some adjustments to reduce casualties......

Vins and Joel were stunned, they hadn't thought of it yet. Now everyone is desperate to rush into the depths, even if the reinforcements can reach Cariton on the third day, it is still a question of whether they can make peace with them in one day. And if they stay in the forest for an extra hour, it could be hundreds of casualties.

Tiqi couldn't hide his disappointment and asked, "Could it be that the city lord can't guarantee that reinforcements will be found?"

All three of them were silent, and for a moment they could only hear the noisy sound of rain.

It could only be like this, Freeman did not dare to gamble Carriton's life and death on an uncertain reinforcement, so he had to let the adventurers and the three guilds attack with all their might. Although the outlook has not changed in the same way as before, for some reason, Wins feels even more gloomy.

It was almost morning, but the rain continued and the fog was getting thicker. The four of them couldn't see the road ahead clearly in the fog, and walked more slowly. Fortunately, the Land of the Wind in Kolis was not affected by fog and heavy rain, and it was still able to operate at full capacity, and the safety of the group was at least somewhat guaranteed.

Suddenly, Colis's expression changed and he said, "There's a person coming from the left front, soon!"

The four of them didn't say much, and immediately tacitly looked for cover and hid one after another. Now their strength has been greatly reduced, but they still have a lot of hunting props and food, and they are definitely fat sheep in the eyes of many people. Nine times out of ten, those who can approach them at great speed in the rain are not good.

Not long after, a man soaked from the rain rushed out of the woodland. He still had rain boots on his feet, but the raincoat on his body was missing. The clothes were wet and clinging to his body, and his thin figure was still trembling slightly in the cold rain. However, even in such an embarrassment, his legs did not dare to stop for a moment, and he was panting and running wildly!

He's running for his life! The raincoat was thrown away so as not to get in the way!

The four of them looked at each other twice in the tree, and finally slowly shook their heads. They are all wounded, and it is very difficult for them to protect themselves, and they have no ability to care about the lives and deaths of others.

"Bang! bang!"

A sound of footsteps as thin as a drum followed the man, and he didn't think it was a monster chasing him. The four of them hid in the trees, and did not act rashly for a while.

If you turn around and run now, you will most likely become the scapegoat of that man!

Suddenly, Colis, who was in the tree on the other side, suddenly frowned, looking very uneasy.

"What's wrong?" asked Vins, who was closer to Corlis, softly.

Collis tapped the trunk a little uneasily to the rhythm of the monster's footsteps, his eyes rolling, apparently thinking about the situation in front of him. "I feel another country of wind," he said......

"The other one?!, the man just now?"

Collis shook his head and said, "It's not him, it's someone else." ”

Vince was stunned for a moment, and before he could figure out what the other Wind Country represented, suddenly the monster that had been chasing the man appeared in the field of vision of the four of them!

It's actually a person!!

The lower body is still a plain brown linen trousers, but the upper body is completely naked. Starting from the left side of the abdomen, the entire left side of the body has become a brown-colored wood-like thing, and it is more than twice as large as the right side. His face was hideous, his eyes were completely red, and the left half of his face had not yet completely turned into wood, and there was still granular flesh on it! Raindrops fell on his naked body, and instantly evaporated into steam. At this moment, he was exhaling a thick white breath visible to the naked eye, frantically chasing his prey!

Colys's face changed greatly, and before he could say anything, the monster below who was chasing and killing on the way suddenly looked up at Vins and the others hiding in the tree!

Colis yelled in his nervous and high-pitched voice, "Run!!This is a metamorphosed wind mage!! he sensed us with the Land of Winds!!"

How could they not have heard of the horrors of the mutants, who usually wandered in the Demon Mist Forest, the three of them were suddenly shocked, and they frantically scattered and fled with their hooks!

Deviant people are crazy and irrational. This point was perfectly embodied in the mutant of this wind mage, and after he sensed the four of Vins, he immediately gave up his original prey, jumped up, and instantly jumped onto the tree where Vins was hiding just now!!

"Run!!" Collis squeezed the last breath of air out of his lungs and shouted frantically at the trio. As a popular person, it was not difficult for him to get rid of this deviant in the forest, but the other party didn't seem to be coming at him......!

"Vins!!Run!!He's chasing you!!" Collis's roar drowned out the sound of rain that flooded the forest.
