Verse 17: Someone calls for help

In choosing the direction, the teenagers and girls did their best.

Looking at the stars to identify the direction is not what they are good at.

What Zidi is really good at is business, and potions and magic are secondary.

With the common sense of needle gold and a broken memory, he currently finds that he is good at fighting.

The two of them were running for the position of the lord of Baisha City, who would have thought that they would be shipwrecked? Who would have thought that they would fall on such a dangerous strange island?

The two of them walked in a straight line, only occasionally searching the neighborhood to confirm their current direction.

Unlike yesterday, and therefore with a different strategy of exploration, they quickly went beyond the scope of yesterday's exploration and reached a completely new territory.

"Be careful. Needle Gold reminded loudly.

Beside them was a cliff, and a large tree grew on the edge of the cliff, still rising straight to the sky. There are only a lot of roots in the tree, and they are exposed on the cliff.

There are also many trees growing at the base of the cliffs, and the canopies of these trees are still a few meters above the edge of the cliffs.

Zidi nodded, following the needle, carefully avoiding the cliffs.

The cliff is very high, and the consequences of falling down are serious.

Broken head bleeding and fractures are normal.

In this forest, human fragility is beyond human imagination.

Even a sprained ankle can cost you your life. Because of the ankle sprain, it will bring a series of evil consequences, such as inconvenience, and being attacked by fierce beasts.

Once you stumble and fall, even if it is a strength like needle gold, you will have to suffer a lot.

After all, he couldn't rush the fighting spirit.

Far away from this cliff, Zidi still looked back with fear.

This cliff terrain is easy to avoid during the day. But not at night.

It's too hard.

A person's vision is very limited at night.

Without the help of fighting spirit and magic, with his eyes alone, he is almost like a blind man.

Just when you thought you were walking on a flat and safe terrain, you just pushed off the branch that was holding you back, and you fell off a cliff!

"Thankfully, we didn't run into this terrain when we ran away before. Zidi said happily.

"yes. Needle Jin was also afraid, and resonated with Zidi's words.

If they had fallen off the cliff that night under the pursuit of the fire bees, I am afraid that the two of them would have become bones at the bottom of the cliff by now.

As you move away from the cave, there are more and more such cliffs.

The undulations of the terrain are becoming more and more pronounced.

This change isn't all bad.

Sometimes, teenagers and girls would stand on the edge of a cliff – a place with a wider field of vision and look out from afar.

Of course, this is only occasional. Most of the time, even on the edge of the cliff, there are large trees, and the canopy and branches of the trees tightly block the view.

There are trees everywhere.

It is too easy for people to get lost when walking in such an environment.

Needle Gold kept marking on the map, recording the route he had taken—he drew a straight line.

But in reality, is the path they are taking really a straight line?

Teenagers and girls can't be sure, in fact, they are more of a weak heart. Because they understand that in the absence of references, it is difficult for them to ensure that their path is straight.

Therefore, when there is a cliff with a wider view, they can take a look at it from afar, they will cherish it very much.

It's hard for ordinary people to imagine this.

Exploring the forest and making an ordinary look from afar will induce joy and confidence in those who are trapped in the depths of the forest.

Of course, this is also due to the fact that needle gold is not good at climbing trees.

The training of knights has never had the content of teaching people to climb trees.

This is not surprising.

Because the knight has mastered the fighting spirit, he is completely able to jump up and jump onto the branches that rise diagonally, and there is no need for special training to climb the tree.

When knights fight, they are never alone.

They had mounts, they had attendants, and when the legions went to war, they had already had auxiliaries to reconnoiter and open the way.

Needle Gold tried to climb trees.

After being three meters above the ground, he gave up.

First of all, he has to climb near the canopy so that he can climb high and look far. To do this, at least ten meters above the ground.

This height is very risky.

If he stumbles and falls to the ground, he will be injured.

He was a knight, the most elite Templar under the command of Emperor Shengming, but he couldn't rush the fighting spirit. Without a vindictive amulate, it is difficult to withstand such a difference in height with the body alone.

During the entire time he climbs the tree, once the attack comes, it is also when he and Zidi are at their most vulnerable.

Secondly, it is much more difficult to climb such tall trees than rainforest trees with sloping branches and vines.

In the end, he had to think about his physical strength.

Climbing trees is too physically demanding.

If you exert too much effort, you will sweat and be hungry, so you will have to replenish a lot of food and water. Especially the latter, there are really not many reserves for teenagers and girls.

Needle gold ascends high and looks far.

"Look there, there's a low depression there. "Needle gold road.

They should try to go as low as possible.

This terrain is likely to have water.

On the one hand, it can help young people and girls replenish water, and on the other hand, they may be able to find the river and walk along the river to get out of the forest.

This is because the island is surrounded by the sea, and the water flows lower and eventually joins the ocean.

An ideal river that ends in a sandy beach or reef.

After sprinkling a packet of glitter potion on the edge of the cliff, the boy and girl changed direction slightly.

Soon after, they came to a low-lying place.

Disappointed, they didn't find the river, let alone any water.

This landscape is like a giant bowl, and there are still trees in the bowl.

However, just as the two were about to change direction, they suddenly paused.

A black panther unexpectedly appeared in their eyes.

It has black fish scales and horns in the middle of its forehead.

It's a scaly panther!

At the same time that they found the Panther, the latter also discovered them.

For a moment, both parties were stunned, and this encounter seemed to be caught off guard by each other.

Needle Gold quietly clenched the spear and couldn't help but get nervous.

He is not afraid of a scaly black panther, and it is easy to be hit hard by him. But what about a group?

What's even more terrifying is that if it's not the group of black panthers attacking the monkey-tailed brown bears, but a relatively intact group of leopards?

Although most of these scaly black panthers are only at the bronze level, as soon as they are numerous, they can hunt collectively, and when they encounter a silver demonic beast like a monkey-tailed brown bear, they dare to besiege it.

If the needle gold is besieged by the black panther group, and it is difficult to protect itself, it is necessary to protect Zidi.

That's hard to do.

However, there is no good way to do it at the moment, everything can only be done at the right time!

Both sides remained motionless, and the air seemed to freeze.

Zidi held her breath, the pressure in her heart grew, and her face began to turn a little pale.

After a brief stalemate, the scaly-horned panther suddenly turned around and slipped away.

Unexpected situation!

"Chase it, it might be going to attract the whole pack of leopards. The next moment, Zidi whispered a reminder.

Needle Jin nodded, he deeply remembered that the fire poison bee swarm had forced away a black panther, and as a result, the whole leopard group took revenge, and finally got into a fight with the monkey-tailed brown bear.

"You follow. If there is no ......" Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Zidi.

"Don't worry, we all have potions, you can mark them anywhere, and you can merge them!" Zidi replied.

This is the method agreed upon by the two to prevent both parties from getting lost.

Needle Jin opened his legs and galloped rapidly.

Almost all the trees rushed to the face, and they were all flashed by the needle gold quickly.

With the sound of the whirring wind in his ears, Needle Gold was engrossed, not only firmly locking on to the figure of the black panther, but also taking care of the surroundings to prevent any insidious attacks.

It's not night, it's daytime, and the view of the needle gold is good.

He breathed heavily, his heart spurting blood, the blood almost like a hair, and a large number of muscles in his body were stretching and contracting, bringing strong kinetic energy.

The speed of the needle gold was very fast, and it quickly closed the distance between him and the black panther.

This scaly-horned panther is not fast.

As the two sides got closer, Needle Gold was surprised to find that the scaly panther was injured.

"Wounded, could it be that it was involved in the siege of the monkey-tailed brown bear?"

Needle gold is a little relieved.

Because of the leopard group that was badly injured by the monkey-tailed brown bear, the leader is dead, and the rest is only three or three.

"Still be vigilant!"

"What if, it's just a ploy by the leopards?"

Needle Gold had heard Zidi's retelling, and knew how the sinister and vicious blue wolf had repeatedly attacked and culled the exploration team. The beasts of this island cannot be judged by common sense. If the group of leopards had adopted a lure tactic, it would not be surprising that the needle gold had been struck.

Again to the surprise of Needle Gold, the scaly horned panther that was running in front of him suddenly stopped.

It whimpered, spun in circles, faltering, and seemed rather restless.

The needle gold gradually approached it, and the panther was still like this, as if there was something hidden in the forest in front of it, which brought it great fear, far more than the needle gold brought it.

For a while, the young man couldn't help but show a dignified expression.

He did not rush to attack the panther, but looked around to the left and right.

He soon noticed that the forest around him was darker than before. The trees are still tall, but their leaves are green, and the trees appear to be showing signs of decay. The ground is full of dead branches and leaves. The air also hides a cold and gloomy atmosphere.

No beast was observed, and Needlegold refocused his gaze on the scaly-horned panther in front of him.

He walked slowly, and when the distance between the two sides had narrowed to a certain point, the panther finally couldn't bear it anymore and began to flee further.

Needle gold is a close second.

Whew——!

He hadn't gone far before the panther let out a scream.

A white cobweb rose from the ground and fished upward, enveloping the panther entirely.

The cobwebs quickly hang up, the silk is extraordinarily sticky, and the more the panther struggles, the more firmly it is glued to the silk.

Soon, the surface of the panther's body was almost covered with spider silk.

A pale blue spider slowly descended from the canopy of the tree and came to the web.

The spider's main torso was as large as a stone mill, and its eight tentacles were thin and long, each at least two meters long.

The spider landed on the spider's web, as if it were gliding on the ice, and the movement was very smooth.

It began to work, and the eight tentacles were like a master playing the strings, busy but not chaotic, and even a hint of elegance was revealed.

The cobwebs that were originally trapped in the panther were still a little broken. But under the weaving of the spider, it is quickly complete and unbroken.

The panther struggled faster and less, and the white spider silk was like a bandage, holding it firmly between the trees, about six or seven meters above the ground.

Watching the scene of the spider's successful predation, Needle Gold inevitably felt chills in his heart.

He slowly retreated, his nerves tense.

The young man's eyes were not only staring at the spider that was still weaving, but also paying attention to his feet.

Maybe there are cobwebs hiding near him.

Fortunately, after the eight-legged spider finished hunting, it did not attack him, but followed the spider's silk and went deep into the canopy, and disappeared.

Needle Jin didn't dare to be careless at all, and even his heartstrings tightened a little.

Because in the canopy of the nearby trees, he also found other hunted prey.

They are covered in white spider silk, revealing a variety of shapes.

The most common of them is the leopard shape.

Needle gold immediately guessed: Is it the scaly black panther that was driven away by the monkey-tailed brown bear before, planted here?

He already understood that the scaly-horned panther was afraid of the eight-legged spider. The panther herd was ambushed here, and almost all of them were wiped out, and one panther narrowly escaped, only to encounter a needle gold on the way.

The panther was not intellectually intelligent enough, and in a panic, he fled back to his previous place, only to be hunted.

In addition to leopard-shaped prey, there are also cobwebs in the shape of elk, foxes, rabbits, and so on.

There are even tigers, rhinos.

The devil knows why rhinos live in this landform.

Seeing this, Needle Jincha's heart couldn't help but beat a little faster.

Although he had only seen one eight-legged spider, there was definitely a lot hidden in the canopy here. Otherwise, the panther colony cannot be annihilated by a single spider. And large prey such as rhinoceros and tigers cannot be caught by a single spider.

Normal spiders hunt alone, but this eight-legged spider seems to live in groups.

This change in habits is not surprising to the needle.

Just as he was about to evacuate away from here, a faint voice suddenly floated in: "Wait. ”

"Don't go. ”

"Please, please...... Save me, save me. ”

Someone is asking for help from Needle Gold!
