Chapter 60: There is no way back

It didn't take long for the heavy rain to fall from the sky and hit his face as scheduled, Lu Tianyu touched the rain on his face, turned his head and looked at the holy fruit forest, a bright lightning bolt struck the top of the holy fruit forest, making a thunderous sound.

Ina's body trembled, and her mouth muttered speechless, no one knew what kind of situation Danny would encounter in the holy fruit grove, only silently prayed for Danny in her heart.

"Let's go, the heavy rain will slow down our trip, Danny has a weapon in his hand, it'll be fine", Lu Tianyu comforted in a low voice. Now is not the time to grieve, and if she and Ina can't get to the edge of the swamp before dark, fate won't necessarily be better than Danny's.

Passing through a small forest, I found a big tree to shelter from the rain temporarily, the rain was too heavy, and I looked at the white expanse, as if a rain curtain was blocking in front, and I couldn't see the road ahead at all. You can't use an ordinary compass here, you can only use visual inspection to determine the direction, and it's easy to get lost.

Ina had a fever on her body, she was dizzy after taking two antipyretics, and the healing equipment was useless here, all of which were left on the hovercraft, and she had to leave this disturbing area immediately.

"It's the venom of the tree frog", Ivan shouted, breaking Ina's hand, the palm of which was swollen like bread, red and some translucent: "It's the cannibal poison dart", Ivan took a thin bamboo skewer from the back of Ina's hand, three or four centimeters long, with a black sheen.

There was the sound of rain and wind all around, and he didn't see the shadow of the cannibal at all, "where", Lu Tianyu grabbed the rifle in his hand, his vigilance was too poor, and he didn't even notice it when the cannibal touched his side.

"Judging from the time of injury, it should have been when we passed by the grove just now, and it is estimated that it was only one or two cannibals, otherwise they would have attacked us."

What Ivan said should be right, the cannibals took advantage of the fact that when they were resting just now, there was no one around Ina to take care of them and secretly attacked Ina from the dark, thinking of this Lu Tianyu's teeth "rattling" sound, I can't wait to tear these cannibals.

"Is it serious", watching Ivan treat Ina's injuries, Lu Tianyu asked nervously.

"Fortunately, the tree frog toxin is the lowest in the rainy season, and now it's raining again, so it should be no big deal to deal with it," Ivan said as he dressed Ina's wound.

"Put on the armor", there can be no more mistakes, Ina's body is already very weak, and now she has been hit by a poison dart, God knows if there will be anything else. The armor has a self-help walking function, even if she doesn't support Ina, Ina will walk freely with the help of the armor, as long as she wears the armor, her safety is guaranteed, she can rest assured, and she can concentrate on dealing with the cannibals around her.

Ivan looked at the armor in Lu Tianyu's hand, and a greedy look appeared in his eyes, he had never seen such a valuable armor, if he had one, how good it would be.

Putting on armor for Ina doesn't seem to be as simple as the manual says, and the armor is not automatically put on for Ina, but lies quietly in the box without any reaction, "Oops, how can I forget the surrounding interference." ”

"I heard that cannibals will make women's heads into wine cups, Tianyu, do you think cannibals will also make my heads into wine cups", Ina said stupidly.

"What nonsense, as long as we get to the edge of the swamp, the cannibals won't catch us, they are all landlubbers who can't swim", Lu Tianyu said while wearing the armor on Ina's body piece by piece, the appearance of the armor looks very funny, the automatic adjustment function is not activated, just hanging on Ina's body piece by piece, like a medieval steel can, but there should be no problem to prevent the cannibals' poison darts.

The self-service walking function of the armor was also ineffective, and it couldn't help Ina walk, so she could only let Ivan walk in front of her, walking at the back with her gun in her hand, and looking around vigilantly.

The heavy rain is still falling, and you can't stay here for a moment, the cannibals are around, you must rush to the swamp while it is not yet dark, get on the hovercraft, and walk dozens of miles to leave the interference zone, and then there will be no problem whether you call for help or return to the experimental station.

Lu Tianyu thinks so, Ivan also thinks so, this is not a place where normal people should come, whether it is killing or being killed, it is what he does not want to see.

He looked around vigilantly, although the rain and fog blocked everything, Lu Tianyu could still feel the existence of danger, he had to leave here, leave here immediately, one more minute of danger.

The group walked with difficulty in the wild grass, the raincoats on their bodies were already drenched, and a gust of wind blew, and they could feel the rain left on their skin.

There was a smurmur in the grass, and the sound came from his left, drowned out by the rushing rain, and he couldn't hear it unless he listened carefully. "It's cannibals", the muzzle of the gun quickly aimed at the grass on the left, and there was a burst of gunshots, no screams, no other sounds, as if nothing had happened.

"What's wrong, isn't it a cannibal?"

"I don't know ......, keep going", now I don't care if it's a cannibal or a beast in the grass, and I don't want to check it, as long as it doesn't affect my ability to continue to hurry. When people are in danger, they will be a little nervous, Lu Tianyu has this feeling now, the wind is loud and the grass and trees are all soldiers, and everything feels dangerous.

Nothing can stop him from going home, not in the heavy rain, not in the holy fruit tree, and even more so now in the cannibals, the footsteps of returning home have become extremely firm, and the momentum of walking in the rain has also become mighty.

No matter what you encounter on the road or what you hear, your first reaction is to shoot first, not because you are afraid, but because you are deterring, so that those people and animals hiding in the shadows will retreat. The group did not dare to slack off, knowing that they still had a long way to go, they did not make a sound, and they did not need anyone to stop complaining, but just silently walked forward in the rain.

The rain was a little light, and the sun didn't know when it would peek out of the gaps in the clouds, and the light at dusk was a little dim, and I could barely see far. A silvery white appeared in front of it, and it was the water of the swamp reflecting the afterglow of the sun, like a large golden platter.

Ivan helped Ina to sit down at the water's edge, and he took two escorts to the grass to find two hovercraft, and when the expedition left, he hid the two hovercraft in the grass more than one person high, and then took them out when he returned.

"How's it going, is it okay?" Lu Tianyu lifted Ina's mask and saw Ina's pale cheeks, and his heart couldn't help but tremble.

"Okay, are we waiting for Danny here? It's getting late, so I'll rest here for the night today," Ina's chapped lips struggled.

"Let's take a sip of water first", Lu Tianyu put his water bottle to Ina's lips, poured a sip into Ina and said, "Let's see, if there is no danger around, just stay here for one night, or wait for Danny to come back." I don't want to wait for Danny here, but it's not too early, and it's even more dangerous to travel at night, so I have to stay if I don't want to.

"Lu Tianyu, come and see", Ivan was shouting his name in the distance, and his voice sounded very anxious.

"I'll take a look, don't move, there's a pistol here, put it away, use it in a critical situation", I don't believe that Ina can't even use a gun, shooting, hunting are the habits of nobles, Ina should be familiar with how to use a gun.

"What's going on?" Lu Tianyu walked to Ivan's side, saw Ivan in a daze, and had a premonition that something big had happened.

"The hovercraft is ......, the hovercraft is broken", Ivan pointed to the two hovercraft torn into strips of cloth in the grass, and the corners of his mouth trembled: "It must be the cannibals who discovered our whereabouts and destroyed the hovercraft. ”

It's useless to say anything now, "Will the engine still work?" If not, let's build a raft", there is no shortage of wood around, and as long as the engine is still working, we can get out of here.

"It's broken, it's all broken, it's all ruined by cannibals," Ivan said bitterly, crouching on the ground with his head in his hands.

Obviously, both hovercraft were unusable, and when the expedition team landed, they were already discovered by cannibals hiding in the shadows. Why didn't I find out that there were cannibals around me at that time, if I had been more careful at that time, I would have been too careless, and it would have been too late.

The cannibals should be nearby, hiding in unknown places and peeking at their group, "go and chop some wood immediately, pay attention to safety, and bring your guns with ......", the only way you can think of now is to set up a raft as soon as possible, survive the night, and leave this cannibal land tomorrow.

There are also eight defensive energy rods around him, and the rest of the defensive energy rods are reserved for Danny, which can be formed into a circle of one hundred square meters, and the tent is set up in the middle of the circle. Ivan carried back dozens of arm-thick branches, tied them up with ropes, and made two rafts of six square meters, ready to cut some more back for the purpose of lighting a fire at night.

"Wait......", at this time it was already dark, and the sound of insects and birds in the distance suddenly stopped, which was a sign of someone around: "Be careful, there are people around?" ”

Before Lu Tianyu finished speaking, he saw that the defensive rod not far away suddenly emitted a few white lights, hitting the grass, "Ah", the surroundings suddenly became quiet, and then several long wooden sticks fell from the sky, all of which were inserted into the land not far from him.

The cannibals tried to attack their group, but they didn't expect the defense rod to detect their tracks, and at the same time that the cannibals threw spears made of tree branches, they all knocked them to the ground. Thankfully! The spears made by these cannibals are very rough, twenty meters is already the limit, if you can throw forty meters, you can only jump into the river.

"Be on guard, don't go near the defensive sticks, it's not safe there right now, light a fire around, don't stand in the ...... of the light," the grass around kept shaking, and the howling of wolves sounded creepy.
