Chapter 57: Deathmatch!

'Whoosh' cold winds blow, accompanied by the day's snowfall.

At about five o'clock in the afternoon, the ground was already covered with snow, and the sky and the sky were cloudy and white.

And at the highway leading from the base city to the junction of the northern provinces.

Zhao Zhou stood on the ankle-covered snow-covered viaduct, looking at the mountain area next to the road, where there was a vast forest formed only after the end of the world, covering the forked roads on the way to this mountain road, and the villages and cities covered the entire small mountain range.

And, according to the road signs at the entrance of the expressway, this snow-covered forest stretches for three to four hundred kilometers.

"It's a good idea to walk through the forest here, but it's a lot of time. It's just that after this heavy snowfall, the forest is white and expansive, and it is impossible to see the reality in the forest. But in any case, following the road signs will save nearly half of the distance than along the highway around the mountain, which is a good shortcut. ”

Zhao Zhou glanced up at the rusty road signs, and with the intention of approaching the road, he jumped directly from the high-speed entrance about ten meters high, and came to the edge of the forest where the trees were on average seven or eight meters high.

It was also at this time that he looked into the forest, and saw that although the snow was falling in the sky, and the temperature had reached about minus seven or eight degrees, these trees may have been influenced by the end of the world.

Walking into a few dozen meters, Zhao Zhou glanced around, and also found that except for some branches and leaves that were crushed by the snow on the forest floor, other trees were luxuriant, blocking the falling snow in the sky, forming layers of snow above the forest, so that he could not see the scene in the forest from the outside.

But the snow covered the branches, and the forest was dark and cold. In some places, the branches of the trees are thick, and it is even darker, and I don't know if there are any evolutionary beasts hiding in it, hunting prey in the forest at any time.

It's just that Zhao Zhou's six senses are keen, and after stepping on the branches that were crushed by the snow and entering the forest, he listened attentively, except for hearing the sound of snow falling, there was no other sound in the forest.

"It's safe outside this forest, it is estimated that there is a cold wind that can blow in, these evolved beasts feel cold, and they all go to the forest to protect themselves from the cold."

Zhao Zhou guessed, took out three catties of Tai Sui, finished serving them one by one at the edge of the forest, took out a drink bottle size, polished a round gourd, opened the lid with a 'bang', and drank a sip of Tai Sui mixed with various precious medicinal materials and evolved beast bone marrow, and the bone marrow medicinal wine brewed was specially used to stimulate cell activity and temporarily replenish physical strength.

At the end, Zhao Zhou hugged Dan Jin again, and after feeling that his physical strength had recovered to his peak, he hung the medicinal wine gourd on his waist, one step twenty or thirty meters away, and went straight to the other side of the forest.

Similarly, with his rush consumption, he occasionally drank a sip of medicinal wine halfway to relieve the fatigue of his cells, which was enough to run more than 100 kilometers in a row and recover his strength once in an hour or so.

As long as there were no accidents, he could cross the three or four hundred kilometers of forest in five hours, and reach the vicinity of the northern province by ten o'clock in the evening.

Whoa—

It was also with Zhao Zhou's movement that the branches and leaves that had formed ice on the ground were shattered by the trampling, and a small sound spread dozens of meters around.

Accompanied by the sound of 'stampeding' footsteps, more than half an hour passed, and after Zhao Zhou went deep into the forest for about fifty kilometers, there were also a lot of sparse sounds nearby, as well as the roars of some wild beasts.

"Hiss" One of the poisonous snakes spitted letters, and a ten-meter-long evolutionary beast snake coiled on the trunk of the tree where the two of them were hugging, and looked at the hideous head in the direction of Zhao Zhou, who was rushing to its side.

But. Zhao Zhou saw and heard this scene, but his footsteps did not stop, and the moment he came to the side of this tree, he became a crane with one hand, rubbed his footsteps, and slightly avoided the bite of the evolved snake, and slammed his backhand on its head.

At the same time, with a 'click', the head of this evolutionary beast shattered, its head sunken in, and fell from the trunk of the tree, becoming food for the rest of the evolutionary beasts that were chasing Zhao Zhou in the rear, and also slowing down their pursuit of Zhao Zhou.

Zhao Zhou didn't stop for a moment, and then walked deeper into the forest, without delaying his work on these low-level evolution beasts.

He also passed along the way, about a hundred kilometers deep into the forest.

In addition to occasionally resting for a while and killing a few evolution beasts that stood in the way, reflecting the somewhat dim and white scene in the forest, I also saw many villages and towns covered by forests and dilapidated, many houses were climbed down by trees, and there were countless mutilated bones of humans.

There are also many roads covered in trees and vines, twisted vehicles on the sides or in the center of the roads that have become nests of small evolutionary beasts, and ants crawling on the bloodstained dirt that have long since dried up, or climbing on a dry bone.

Equally.

Also near the center of Zhao Zhou's entry into this forest, the evolution beasts here are also getting higher and higher.

When they heard Zhao Zhou's footsteps again, or from a tree seven or eight meters high, or from the ruins of a building covered with grass and trees, they seemed to be thinking, realizing that they were not the opponent of this creature, and then they did not attack rashly, but went out of the hiding place, ran beside Zhao Zhou, and followed.

For a while, as long as they could keep up with Zhao Zhou's evolution beasts, they all vaguely surrounded Zhao Zhou in the center, like wolves hunting.

When Zhao Zhou stepped on another four or five kilometers and his strength was about to be exhausted, the nearby forest was full of dense and rushing sounds of various evolutionary beasts, not to mention more than 100.

When Zhao Zhou heard this scene, he first picked up the gourd, drank a few sips of medicinal wine, replenished his physical strength a little, and then took out the longbow and killed all the evolved beasts nearby that wanted to test him, and the smell of blood wafted nearby, and the corpses were everywhere in the forest.

"Roar!" After seeing this scene, more evolutionary beasts from the rear also had a more eye-catching sense of crisis, and they did not attack Zhao Zhou's side again, but they did not leave, but began to eat away at the corpses of the evolutionary beasts killed by him on his periphery.

"These evolutionary beasts are also smart." When Zhao Zhou saw this scene, he also put away his longbow, and went down to a big tree in twos and threes, and in the dense leaves and the snow at the top of the tree, he began to hold the round pill and recover his strength, and at the same time took out Tai Sui to take it to ensure that other accidents were prevented.

Ten or so minutes passed, and there was also the sound of evolution beasts eating in the forest, and the roar of two evolution beasts snatching the corpse sounded from time to time.

Zhao Zhou regained his strength, smashed through the snow layer, reflected the gloomy sky, made sure to identify the direction, put away the longbow again, and stepped two or three hundred meters away from the adjacent big tree, out of the encirclement of these evolutionary beasts, and then continued to walk on the ground.

"The leaves of this tree are too luxuriant, and walking on the tree will affect the footsteps, not to mention, and I can't recognize the general direction."

Zhao Zhou thought about it, trying to avoid the evolutionary beast herd on the way to save time.

However, when he had traveled to the general distance, only about a hundred kilometers away from this forest, he suddenly passed by a tree more than ten meters high, swept his eyes, and stared at it, reflecting the darkness, as if he had seen a pair of human bones under this big tree.

It's just that this skeleton is mutilated, and there are some kind of animal bite and pull marks on it, leaving very obvious tooth marks on the bones.

When Zhao Zhou heard this, he was curious about this skeleton, because the nearest village and town was also forty kilometers away from here.

If he guessed correctly, this person should have been killed from nearby villages and towns after the end of the world.

"This person can kill such a long distance, it should be a martial artist, or an ancient martial artist."

Zhao Zhou stopped and looked at it a few times, and also saw some knife marks on the trees, in the small clearing in the forest a little farther away, there was a long knife full of blades, and next to it were more than a dozen equally mutilated evolutionary beast corpses, all of which were full of some knife marks that were truly 'deep into the bone'.

"This man is a good hand with a knife."

Zhao Zhou walked here and picked up the long knife, observed the knife marks on the trunk and beast bones for a while, as well as the footwork footprints that were still faintly left on the ground, and then chopped the bones of the evolved beast, and then deduced the skin and flesh barrier of the evolved beast, and also concluded that this person's strength was at least five thousand catties up!

In terms of personal strength, he will definitely be ranked among the top ten in the world in this last days!

"Looking at its knife marks, chopping, piercing, spreading, and intercepting, it should be a master who learns the gossip serial knife.... It's a pity...."

Zhao Zhou touched the knife marks on the tree, put down the long knife, sorted out the bones of this master, and buried them in this clearing.

Finally.

He thought for a moment, put away his long knife, and then hurried on.

However, after he walked and rested, and after another fifty or sixty kilometers of travel, he suddenly "roared! The sound of a dull and rumbling sound seemed to spread throughout the forest.

Zhao Zhou heard that the footsteps in the forest were also paused, and behind a big tree, he saw a tiger the size of a truck lying in the clearing in front of him.

It is more than seven meters long and more than three meters tall when it stands up!

"It's the first time I've seen an evolved tiger, but I don't know how effective this tiger bone is. Tiger skin and bones, and whether it can make a bowstring. Zhao Zhou saw it, took out a longbow, mounted an arrow, and aimed at the eyes the size of the evolution beast's skin ball from behind the trees, ready to hunt this evolution tiger.

It's just that at the same time that Zhao Zhou pulled the bowstring full and released arrows.

The sound of the 'whooshing' arrow breaking through the air had just sounded, and the evolved beast, which had been napping, suddenly stretched its limbs and jumped back more than ten meters away, allowing the arrow to miss, and 'snapped' on the trunk of the tree behind it, and the arrow body was half a meter into the wood, and scattered snow fell from the top of the tree.

"Roar!"

It was also at this time that the evolved beast suddenly turned its head in the direction of Zhao Zhou, running more than ten meters back and forth with its limbs, and its body was vertical, accompanied by the 'whirring' rancid and fishy wind, a tiger pounced across a distance of 100 meters, splitting the claws Zhao Zhou rowed! Not even a breath in time!

When Zhao Zhou saw and heard this, he also burst out in an instant, and moved left to step out, making it miss this beat, but with the whistling wind of 'whoosh', the tail of the evolved beast flicked, as if it was holding a sharp axe and slashing, and then pulled towards Zhao Zhou, who moved out sideways.

'Squeak' steel clash.

Zhao Zhou blocked the bow with both hands, the tiger's mouth was numb, and the bow body was a little twisted and deformed, but he also used his strength to kick on the nearby trees.

'Bang', the strength of the evolved beast's tail swing has not disappeared, and it also pulled out a mark more than half a foot deep from the trunk of the big tree where Zhao Zhou was hiding, and the snow 'boomed' down, revealing a somewhat dim snowy night sky.

"The strength of this evolution beast is estimated to be twenty tons upwards." Zhao Zhou looked at the half-erect evolution beast, and when it climbed again, he jumped out of the trunk of the tree with his strength, stepped on the trees beside him, and landed on it at once, and took a few steps forward, his legs suddenly exerted force, and both hands stabbed the bow body into its flesh and blood as a fulcrum as a fulcrum, and jumped above its head.

At the same time, Zhao Zhou's five fingers of one hand went deep into its flesh to prevent himself from being thrown to the ground, and one hand buckled, one hand, with the sound of 'poof' crystal cracking, and the sound of flesh and blood stirring.

At the moment when the evolution beast suddenly turned around and was about to throw Zhao Zhou off the ground, Zhao Zhou's entire arm stirred in the skull behind its eyeball, and directly gouged out its eye, tearing off the vascular nerves involved in the eyeball.

But with such a catch, Zhao Zhou had nowhere to borrow, and was thrown off by the evolution beast.

Similarly, this evolutionary beast is the top predator of this forest, not to mention that the tiger is originally the top hunter of nature, and the fighting instinct has evolved from generation to generation, and it really regards fighting as an instinct.

Although it was so injured, a lot of blood flowed from its eyes, and it still let out a dull howl, and instantly half-lay down, grabbed its right hand and slashed it, wanting to tear Zhao Zhou, who had just been thrown off by himself and was still in mid-air, into several sections.

'Hiss', Zhao Zhou couldn't borrow his strength in the air, so he could only inhale and half-bend his body, but although he dodged in time, his clothes were also cut by sharp claws, and three blood marks appeared on his abdomen.

However, before the wound could ooze blood, Zhao Zhou's flesh and blood squirmed, sealing the wound and falling to the ground at the same time, and with a 'smack' sound, he threw out a sword pill, and threw a dagger with a flick of his sleeve, both of which instantly hit the injured position of the evolution beast's eyeball that was still rushing towards him.

'Click' two soft sounds, the evolution beast was dagger and sword pill through the brain nerves, the forward body was also a slam, shaking twice, blood and brain tissue continued to flow out of its eyes, the only eye stared at Zhao Zhou, who jumped forward a hundred and ten meters away, for a few breaths, and then gradually became unconscious, and his body fell suddenly, letting the snow on the top of the nearby tree 'smash' down, burying its body in it, and also revealing the snow in the night sky.

When Zhao Zhou saw the evolution beast dead, he took out the medicinal wine and drank a few sips, and after a while, he stepped forward, pulled out the longbow from its back, and 'hissed' again, and fished the dagger from the depths of its brain tissue.

"If it weren't for the fact that there are many trees in the forest, which allows me to get close and around, and also restricts its culling, it would be really difficult to kill it. But even so, more than half of the strength has been consumed, and if you encounter another one, it will be really difficult to hunt again. ”

Zhao Zhou calculated the battle, looked at the blood marks on his abdomen, and then did not waste time, and contained this evolved beast in the space, occupying two-thirds of the space.

When all the chores were done, he hugged Dan Jin, and when he heard the howl of a wolf nearby, he thought about it, and did not leave here in an instant, but instead summed up some qi and blood, recovered most of his strength, and then began to hurry.

It's just that before Zhao Zhou walked a hundred and ten miles in this forest, accompanied by the sound of wolf howling, he regained his strength under a big tree, and suddenly the wolf howl around him was getting closer and closer.

At the same time, with the sound of the animal's feet stepping on the flesh pads, a pair of dark eyes were also reflected in some dim forests.

Zhao Zhou looked around, and also found that behind the nearby trees a hundred and ten meters away, a two-meter-long evolutionary wolf pack walked out, revealing a pair of sharp wolf teeth, staring at himself, the number was more than three hundred, as if the evolutionary wolves of the entire forest had all gathered here.

If the Evolutionary Tiger just now saw this dense wolf pack, I am afraid that it would also flee when it heard the sound.

But.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Zhou knocked the cork of the medicinal wine gourd, and took out the gossip long knife from the space, and he was not curious about these wolves, knowing that when he entered the forest, these wolves followed him all the way and ate all the evolution beasts he killed.

It's just that this time the Evolved Tiger was put away by Zhao Zhou, and these wolves saw it, although they didn't know why the Evolved Tiger disappeared, but they also knew that Zhao Zhou would no longer 'feed' them, and then wanted to kill Zhao Zhou, the 'master'.

It is also Zhao Zhou who is about to leave the forest now, and these wolves know that Zhao Zhou may not come back, and they can't bear their bloodthirsty nature and want more food.

"I didn't expect these wolves to be really patient, followed me Zhao Zhou all the way, and ate a lot of things from me. I didn't expect you to have nothing to feed you, but you still want to eat me..."

Zhao Zhou regained some strength, holding a bow in one hand and a knife in the other, "But." I've hunted all the evolutionary tigers, and I've sent you hundred and ten ungrateful wolf cubs. ”

As the words fell, he saw a wild wolf attacking, changed his hand and stepped into the knife, directly separating its corpse, and blood sprayed nearby. The longbow struck again, sending its headless corpse slamming into another attacking wolf.

"Whew!"

The other wolves saw that Zhao Zhou easily killed their kind, and they also retreated in unison, but their eyes were full of violence, and they didn't want to let Zhao Zhou go, so they didn't attack from the front, but surrounded them from all directions, jumped two steps one by one, and saw Zhao Zhou looking back, and took a few steps back, wanting to wear down Zhao Zhou's strength.

And with a wolf howl, I don't know how many evolved beasts came in the distance.

Zhao Zhou also heard the roars of many wild beasts nearby, and also knew that his current strength was not enough to kill the wolves in the entire forest, and then he threw a bow, shattering the head of a wild wolf that pounced, and immediately took a dragon-shaped step, a bow, a knife, fighting as he walked, ready to go out of the forest first.

Again, it's close to the forest.

Although the wolves did not let go of Zhao Zhou, but it was only twenty or thirty miles away, Zhao Zhou hugged his blood and blood, and paid attention to the left and right, as long as any wild wolf dared to enter within twenty steps of him, he would hunt and kill them one by one.

For a while, it was also heard with the incessant roar of beasts in the forest.

Zhao Zhou took a breath of heart, and forcibly rushed to kill a thirty-mile distance, standing outside the other night forest covered in blood, holding a long knife with a broken blade and a somewhat twisted longbow in both hands, staring at the forest a hundred meters away, there were originally more than four hundred, but now there are less than a hundred wolves left.

It was as if they dared to take a step out of the forest and slaughter them one by one.

And after these wolves saw Zhao Zhou out of the forest, and saw the heavy snow in the night sky outside the forest, they all hissed in unison, and began to turn around and walk back into the forest with the corpses of their companions in their mouths, maybe because the food was enough, maybe they didn't dare to chase anymore.

After Zhao Zhou saw that they were no longer chasing him, he also stared at the forest, and walked backwards for a hundred steps, and the snow outside the forest was fluttering and stained with blood, and he suddenly felt empty and tired.

"Today's battle is really to the limit. If those wolves chase after me, I really can't help it. ”

'Click', he walked a few meters away, he really had no strength, so he threw the knife and bow in his hand, and lay down in the snow by a river, looking at the sky and night, faintly crescent, did not drink the Tai Sui medicinal wine in the gourd, but took out a bottle of strong wine and drank it all in one gulp, thinking about the battle of life and death, I just wanted to laugh, 'Happy! ’

Coupled with this cold night, the crescent moon is gentle, and the snow is long.

And I was with that,

The night is cold, the moon dews her eyebrows, and the smile leads to the netherworld.

The world is cold, the frost is cold, and there is a lot of sorrow.
