Chapter 5: Hunter Casting (2)
The remaining candidates, who did not fall in the elevator, poured into the primeval forest in front of them. In less than a moment, they were all gone, leaving only Meng Ruxue, who had not yet stepped out of the elevator.
Meng Ruxue glanced at the primeval forest again, she vaguely smelled a strange smell, and then a white mist gradually appeared in front of her.
She looked at the white mist that covered her eyes like a veil, and couldn't help frowning deeply, lifted the medicine box to her shoulder, took out a pill from it, and swallowed it in one gulp.
Her eyes seemed to be clearer, and after taking a deep breath, she finally took a step and walked into the primeval forest.
She walked slowly towards the front, the elevator behind her gradually disappeared, and the sound of animal roars echoed more and more clearly in her ears, and as she approached, some animals finally showed their fangs and appeared in front of her eyes.
Suddenly a spotted leopard rushed out, it roared at her viciously, and out of instinctive reaction, Meng Ruxue fell to the ground in panic.
However, the strange thing is that although Meng Ruxue was frightened and couldn't move, the spotted leopard didn't take advantage of the situation to attack her, but just yelled at her, as if he wanted to deliberately scare her away.
Meng Ruxue noticed this strangeness and began to carefully look at the spotted leopard in front of her
- I saw that its feet seemed to be entangled by something, and round and round, pulling its flesh tightly. From the angle of her fall, the pool of blood under its feet could be faintly visible.
Although the spotted leopard looked fierce and frightened her, she could not let it go as a healer.
She stood up tremblingly and slowly walked towards the spotted leopard.
After clearly seeing the barbed wire fence wrapped around its feet, she immediately opened the medicine box, took out a pair of tweezers from the medicine box, and forcefully clamped one of the barbed wires to remove the spotted leopard's feet.
The spotted leopard, which was originally roaring, suddenly stopped at this time, and instead stared at the side face of Dream Ruxue with clear and grateful eyes.
Meng Ruxue carefully bandaged the spotted leopard, and the spotted leopard licked the side of Meng Ruxue's face, and then turned its belly over and pointed in the direction of Meng Ruxue.
"What is this? What seems to be a symbol? ”
Meng Ruxue looked at the circle symbol on the belly of the spotted leopard suspiciously.
At this moment, a quick arrow shot at the spotted leopard's throat, and the spotted leopard died on the spot.
"Who is it?! Who killed it?! Dream Ruxue looked around and yelled angrily into the air.
In the white mist, a handsome long-haired man with an arrow barrel on his back and a tight black suit walked towards her.
The man glanced at her contemptuously, his face full of disdain, "Isn't it just a leopard?" I'll kill it, but you'll save it. ”
"Am I the one who saved? I don't think you killed it to save me, did you? It's for the symbol on the belly of this leopard. ”
"For the symbol? Oh? Looks like you've discovered the symbol, too. ”
The man looked at Meng Ruxue, who didn't reply, just stared at the man's eyes angrily.
The man spread his hands and continued: "Actually, it doesn't hurt to tell you, looking at you like this, you don't look like a hunter.
As far as I can guess, some of the animals in this primeval forest, or some plants, have those symbols printed on them, and if you put them together, they will point to a certain location, and there should be a way to get to the -38th floor. ”
The man smiled slightly, leaving only these words, and then jumped vigorously and disappeared in front of Meng Ruxue's eyes.
Meng Ruxue sadly took the spotted leopard in her arms and gently stroked its head with her hand.
It looked so peaceful, as if it was asleep, but at the moment it was no longer breathing, and it became a cold corpse.
After Meng Ruxue buried it in the soil, she quickly picked up the medicine box and ran forward without stopping.
The hooves of the chirping apes, the running elk, the barking wolves, the shaking of flowers and plants...... Many voices alternately mingle in the ears of Dream Snow.
After a gunshot rang out, a dark shadow suddenly flashed in front of the dream's eyes.
She immediately chased after her, following closely behind the dark shadow, and before she knew it, he had taken her to this strange place.
The white mist obscured her eyes more and more, and she couldn't see where she was now.
Suddenly, she felt as if she had kicked something, and she had no intention of glancing at it, only to see that the man who shot the spotted leopard just now actually fell at her feet.
Although she hated the man from the bottom of her heart, she quickly helped the man up, took out a pill from her medical box, and stuffed it into the man's mouth.
The man swallowed the pill and slowly opened his eyes to look at the dream like snow in front of him.
"What's wrong with me? Dizzy ......"
"I think you've been poisoned by miasma. I just gave you a pill, and I think you'll be fine for the time being. ”
Seeing that the man was already awake, Meng Ruxue immediately stood up. After all, she still has a grudge against the man for killing the leopard in her heart, and she doesn't want to be with him.
At this moment, a giant overlord flower hidden behind her suddenly opened its bloody mouth and pounced in her direction, wanting to swallow her in one bite.
The man's eyes were quick, and he raised an arrow and shot it at its rhizome, and the rhizome of the giant overlord flower broke, and after a roar, it fell directly to the ground, revealing the triangular symbol on the exposed petals.
"Is it a triangle? There seems to be a word next to it. ”
Meng Ruxue grabbed the petals of the giant overlord flower with her hand and held it up to her eyes to observe it carefully.
I saw that where the petals were, next to the triangle symbol, there was a faint line of small characters, and on top of the small characters was written: ce
te
The word.
“ce
te
? What does that mean? Is it the center where you want us to go? Meng Ruxue said thoughtfully.
"Triangle and circle, what is the first thing that comes to your mind?" The man also poked his neck out and looked at the word.
"First sight......" Meng Ruxue thought for a moment, "the villain in the hat?" ”
"The villain in the hat? I don't think it's such a childish thing. ”
"And what do you say?" Meng Ruxue asked suspiciously.
"I think it should be a symbol of the hunter."
"That's right, the symbol of the hunter, with one end of the triangle embedded in it, and the two horns slightly exposed, isn't that what a cat's head looks like?" She suddenly remembered the cat-headed hunter badge on Sean's chest, and suddenly realized.
Thinking of this, she continued to ask, "But this primeval forest is so big, where should we start to find this owl head symbol that represents the hunter?" ”
