Chapter 476: The Hunter and the Prey
In a dark forest, a team of hunters was walking cautiously forward, and they did not dare to gallop even in the flat woodland.
The hunter who walked in the front even stopped from time to time to use his abilities to collect information about the surrounding environment, for fear of falling into the trap of the monster.
"Xiao Wu, what's wrong?"
Seeing that the hunter who was exploring the path at the front stopped, constantly scanning the surrounding woods, the leader of the hunter team couldn't help but ask nervously.
"Captain, something is wrong in front of you, there must be a demonic beast hidden in the shadows, let's turn back and let those soldiers open the way."
The hunter named Xiao Wu was a thin young man who was not more than twenty years old, and his eyes were full of solemnity at this time, and his face showed a look of unease.
He has a perk ability that perceives danger, allowing him to avoid danger many times. The woods ahead of him made him uneasy, so he stopped.
"Are you sure?"
The captain couldn't help but be shocked when he heard Xiao Wu's words, Xiao Wu's strength was not weak, it could make him feel dangerous, and there must be something hidden in front of him that could endanger their lives.
The Misty Forest is too much, and the trees are even more like primeval forests, and the canopy of trees covers the entire sky, making the forest a little dim even during the day.
At this time, it was the fourth day that they had entered the Misty Forest, except for the first two days, the hunters who walked in front of them had achieved great results and hunted a lot of demonic beasts, and on the third day, they entered the core area of the Misty Forest, and the situation immediately changed dramatically, as if they had suddenly changed from hunters to prey, making the hunters who were exploring the path suffer heavy losses.
Those monsters seem to have an organization, they will hide their whereabouts, and they will set up ambushes to wait for them to take the bait, so that because the hunting process was too smooth two days ago, the forward hunters were carelessly ambushed and killed by the monsters hidden in the forest.
Although those monsters were also killed by the hunters and soldiers who followed closely behind, it also proved that monsters were not at the mercy of others. When they discover the human invasion and a powerful beast begins to command them, the force they explode with enough power to make anyone's heart tremble.
The forest has become dangerous, making the Pathfinder even more cautious, even if it slows down the progress of the process, and must find the monster in the shadows.
This pathfinder hunter team hadn't seen a monster for a long time, and although they were still chasing some traces of monsters along the way, those monsters flickered and flickered, so they had to be chased by hanging.
If it weren't for them in this direction, they would have stopped moving forward long ago when they encountered such a strange scene.
At this time, after the hunter captain saw that his team members had a premonition of danger ahead, his first thought was not to take his team to hunt down the demonic beasts, but to wait for the large troops behind.
The arrogant, hunter who likes to take the enemy lightly has learned his lesson long ago, either dying in the claws of the monster or being frightened like a frightened bird, and is no longer suitable for exploring the way ahead.
"Let's stop first and wait for the people behind."
Seeing Xiao Wu nodding, the captain did not hesitate and motioned for the other team members to stop.
It didn't take long for dense footsteps to sound, and countless figures appeared from the dense forest behind them. Most of these people were soldiers, and only a small number of hunters were mixed in.
The forest was inaccessible to cars, and many of the soldiers, except for those with mounts, walked on their legs, which slowed them down.
"Lao Hu, what's going on, why did you stop? Is there a situation? ”
The leader of the hunters mixed in the army couldn't help but ask loudly when he saw the pathfinder team stopped in front of him.
"There's no way, Xiao Wu senses that there is danger ahead, so we stop and wait for you, the battle depends on you, we are just small soldiers who are exploring the way for you."
The captain of the path-finding hunter team said with a compliment, the person who asked the question was a well-known master in the hunter world in southern China, and this Captain Hu also spoke with a hint of flattery. In such a dangerous environment, befriending a master may be able to save your life at a critical time.
"You're really cautious."
Seeing this, the questioning hunter couldn't help but laugh and scold, and then he said to the officer next to him, "Captain Li, let your people be careful." Along the way, the whereabouts of those demonic beasts became more and more secretive, revealing some traces in a flickering manner, as if they were trying to lead us there. ”
"This monster really needs to be wiped out, and with their current behavior, I would almost think that they are at war with a group of humans."
The soldiers questioned were the captains of this special operations unit, they were a special unit formed to fight against monsters and supernatural people, and the members were basically supernatural people, and it was because of this that they were sent to act as a vanguard force with this group of professional hunters.
"I don't know what the adults above think, those demonic beasts that have appeared are obviously easy to be dealt with by them, but they are hiding behind and watching coldly, allowing us to tear apart with those demonic beasts."
"Brother, be quiet, how can we be qualified to discuss the affairs of those adults." The Li team glanced around, and pulled the hunter master who had a lot of friendship with him and whispered. Not all of the soldiers he brought were his subordinates, some of them were members of the Meiling City Special Operations Team, because their captain had been promoted to a strong man, so these people were temporarily under his control during this operation. If their words reach them, they won't say anything, but I'm afraid that those adults will have a bad impression of them, which is not a good thing.
"I heard that after Lord White Tiger solved the queen ant of Wankuling, the beast king of the entire misty forest disappeared as if he had disappeared, I don't know where he was hidden, those adults are secretly searching, so there is time to take care of us."
As they spoke, they had approached the place where Xiao Wu said he felt dangerous. With the orders of the two leaders of them, everyone went into a state of alert.
Some of the soldiers who are good at tracking are in the lead, and together with the hunters who are scouting, they each cast their abilities to check the situation around them.
Quiet, unusually quiet. The birds are not frightened, the birds and insects do not sing, it is like a dead land, and it is so quiet that it makes people feel mysterious.
Even ordinary people can sense that something is wrong here, let alone them
It was a woodland surrounded by mountains on three sides, and only the direction they entered was a flat river, and the other three sides were surrounded by rolling mountains.
Like a giant mouth that is opening, waiting for the prey to enter. It's just that these soldiers and hunters are in it, and they are obscured by those trees, so they don't notice these things at all.
"What a beautiful dandelion, is this a mutant variety?"
As soon as they stepped into the woodland, the beautiful plants made of blood diamonds were imprinted in their eyes. Looking at the blood shadows that could be seen everywhere in the forest, exuding a demonic luster, some hunters couldn't help but be shocked in their hearts and couldn't help but say.
"This thing is a bit secretive, don't touch it."
Seeing that someone wanted to reach out and touch these unknown plants without knowing whether they were alive or dead, Captain Li couldn't help but stop it in shock.
