Chapter 421, Cabin on a Rainy Night
The Rocky Mountains, which cover about 4,800 kilometers and have existed since the Cretaceous period 100 million years ago, are home to four of the world's four major national parks, where a variety of weather terrain can be encountered, and a wide variety of wildlife lives.
Every year, the Rocky Mountains are visited by countless people for their vacations. However, despite the large number of visitors, so far no one can proudly claim to know everything about the Rocky Mountains.
This is a mysterious land, but also an ancient land that has given birth to countless creatures, and of course, in our supernatural circles, within the coverage of the Rocky Mountains, there is much more to life than the animals and plants that ordinary people know.
The organizer of the World Supernatural Masters Competition dispatched a total of 5 helicopters to transport five batches of contestants at a time and drop them into an area, about 10 kilometers apart, which is very close. Each group of contestants will have a sign, this sign will have an Arabic numeral on it, and the time to enter the Rocky Mountains is a total of three days, and the team or individual participating in the competition must get another sign within three days to pass the assessment.
At first glance, this rule is prepared for us to fight each other, and at least half of the people will be eliminated, but whether this group of dark creatures will be murderous and then kill a few more people, it is impossible to say.
Unfortunately, my cheap hand drew a very unlucky "4".
However, the organizer also knew that almost all the participating teams were secretly colluding together, so there was no special restriction at all, so after the helicopter put us down, I immediately called Joseph through the satellite phone, it was quite far away from my location, according to the gPs positioning tool provided by Zhou Yi, I found that Joseph was at least 40 kilometers away from me, and according to our steps in the forest, it would take at least a day to find Joseph, There is also the possibility of meeting other teams in the middle.
We are not afraid of small teams and individual participants, but we are most afraid of encountering the Knights Templar led by Li Junxiong, the witch and Quinn, and I can guarantee that now that Li Junxiong and the other three forces have begun to look for their allies with each other, we must hurry up and move forward.
Zhou Yi's return to the team has greatly increased the combat effectiveness of our team, perhaps because the momentum of grief has not yet eased, or maybe it is Zhou Yi's bloodline that has affected his personality after awakening.
The big boy who used to be lively and cheerful has now become a little gloomy and indifferent, but as long as a few of us talk to him a few more words, he will immediately show a familiar bright smile, but outsiders who don't know him will definitely think that he is difficult to get close to.
Yuhan cleared the way ahead, as she was familiar with the environment of the mountains and forests, and the black egg wandered back and forth in the nearby woods as a scout, scouting the surrounding situation. And Zhou Yi and Sol followed at the end of the line, and Li Xunmu, Liang Junzi, and I stood together, alert for a possible surprise attack.
This time, the contest was contested in a forest with a diameter of about 300 kilometers, in which strange rocks are craggy, trees are towering, and there are basically tall sequoia trees all around.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Zhou Yi told me that Joseph had already started his journey, and was rushing towards us, and the two sides worked together, and it was estimated that you would be able to meet in most of the day, and you would be able to have dinner with this group of werewolves at night.
However, apparently I thought too well, and after walking for about an hour, the sky began to get tough, and God always seemed to arrange some extra tests for me.
It shouldn't rain much this season, but after we fell into the forest, it started to rain, and the sky turned black in an instant. Therefore, we rushed to find a cave to shelter from the rain.
After wandering in the woods for a while, the black egg shouted to me, "300 meters ahead, there is an abandoned wooden house, there should be no one living in it, let's go there to hide from the rain." ”
After hearing the words of the black egg, a group of us found a small wooden house under the guidance of the black egg, the windows were all broken, the door lock was broken, and it was obvious that it had been attacked by wild beasts, but now the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the ground was becoming more and more muddy and slippery, I walked into the wooden house one foot deeper, and after shaking off the rain gear full of water droplets, I observed this small house.
It was empty, with a dilapidated iron pot in the center, no signs of recent habitation, and some paper on the floor, though it looked damp and wrinkled.
Generally speaking, Americans always have some uneasy thoughts in their heads, and often make some actions that we Chinese cannot understand, such as in the Rocky Mountains, which is a beautiful place to say is picturesque, and the ugly point is to isolate the world, build a cabin, and then think that you can live a fairytale life, but often the final result is a group of mountain wolves or a powerful bear frightened and fleeing.
However, this kind of cabin has a special significance for future adventurers, many people who have lost their way in the forest and have no sense of security, often staying in such a cabin for the night to regain their strength.
However, for our group, it was just a temporary shelter from the rain.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it looked like it was likely to be going to be for a long time, and I looked at the time, and it was almost 7 p.m., and the rain didn't stop at all.
We built a bonfire and started to eat dry food, the black egg was not afraid of wind and rain, and stood guard on the roof, I stood at the door and looked at the dark sky outside, praying that nothing would happen tonight, and before meeting Joseph, I didn't want to be hit by any force, because no matter how confident I was, in the supernatural circle, there will always be something unexpected happening.
Thor pretended to sleep in the corner, holding an aluminum wine vessel in his hand, for Thor the purpose of revenge was achieved, the cause he had fought for for half his life was completely disappeared at the moment when Himmer's soul was destroyed, and all that was left was the infinite nostalgia for his dead daughter, maybe now he can only anesthetize his soul with alcohol!
Yuhan and they sat together and talked, as if they were talking about something very interesting, and the house was still bright because of the fire, but it was dark outside, and the wind poured in through the empty window, and I stood by the window, and soon my face was covered with rain.
"Boss, come over and have a chat."
Li Xun greeted me with a smile, and at this moment, there was a sound of three taps on the roof, which meant that the black egg found movement outside. We were immediately alerted, and Junko poured out the bonfire, and the house suddenly became dark and silent. Black Egg jumped in from the back window of the house, lowered his voice and said, "I saw a person rushing towards us quickly, but I can't see who it is, everyone be careful." ”
At this time, there are only two possibilities to appear here, the first is also a passing explorer, who got lost and wanted to come for the night after seeing the cabin. Second, that's our competitors.
If it's the latter, all I can say is that he's a sheep, and it looks like we'll probably be able to get a sign before we meet Joseph!
The sound of the wind, the rain, the trees being blown apart, all resounded in the dark night, and footsteps were heard in the distance, very quickly and rapidly, accompanied by the heavy breathing of men.
Dozens of seconds later, I saw a man rushing into the house covered in water and shouting, "Is there anyone?" Help, anyone? ”
All of us were stunned, I frowned, and scolded, "Who are you?" At this time, the flashlight shone on the man's face, and I saw a panicked face, with a huge fright on the pale face, and the man must have suffered a very terrible thing to become what he is now.
However, I also saw the sign in his hand, one that looked the same as mine, hanging on his chest, with the number "15" written on it!
Sure enough, it was the other teams participating in the competition, and I had a smile on my face, and I was about to get a ready-made one, but I didn't expect this guy to hug my leg and shout: "Are you Duanmusen?" Help, help me, I'm being hunted and killed, they want to kill me! ”
I was even more surprised, he actually knew that I was Duanmusen, and even when he knew my identity, he actually asked me to save him, isn't this a fool's dream?
If I don't kill him, even if it's the greatest gift to him, how can I save him?
"I said, what's the matter with you?"
He heard my question, and was about to speak, when there were several sounds of breaking the air outside the hut, and then I saw a few colored rays of light gliding in the sky, and finally landed in front of the hut, and when I looked closely, it was witches! The brooms they ride look so good that they can fly at low altitudes, protect them from rain, and glow at night, which is much better than cars!
"Don't kill me, don't kill me, I'll give you the sign, you save me, Duanmusen, you save me!"
The fellow grabbed my leg and shook it vigorously, while the witch shouted from outside the cabin, "Inside, hand over the guy we're tracking, or we'll kill you all." ”
Before I could speak, Yu Han had already walked outside the wooden house at once, and scolded loudly with his hands on his waist: "Damn ugly monster, the snake that killed me hasn't settled accounts with you yet, but now I've run into it, don't even think about leaving any of you!" ”
