Chapter 4 Black-haired Phosphorus Monkey
In the more than two months since I arrived at the camp, I have gradually figured out the organizational structure of the place. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 The creators of Camp Info are an organization of adventurers called the "Arras Circus", which was founded in 1873 and has more than 3,000 registered adventurers worldwide, headquartered in Arras City, in the northwestern province of Calais, France.
I've always thought of myself as a person who is not very curious and inquisitive, but the reality is that if you don't know, you can't be curious. After living in the camp for a long time, every day when I see or hear all kinds of strange things, anyone can't help but ask what is going on.
This time, the "Arras Circus" found a large Spanish relic left by Spain around 1850 in Peru, and at first the adventurer group thought it was a humble 19th-century project, but after spending tens of millions of exploration funds, the "Arras Circus" came here. It's a rare natural resource for adventurers!
For a long time, I thought that the reason why Arras circus was able to be under the nose of a sovereign country must have been to mobilize amazing resources to build and explore in the mountains of a sovereign country, until I later learned that the hundreds of explorers in the camp were just a bunch of crazy guys, and everything they did was completely unsanctioned by the Peruvian authorities, and all their actions were illegal.
Now that I think about it, it's really a good set of tricks to hide from the world.
At 8:10 p.m., I left the camp in a Northern Lights locomotive to fulfill Shirley's instructions. The camp is located at a low altitude, in the mountains and in the overreach of the Amazon forest. The Amazon forest occupies a very large area of forest in South America, and our camp is being built more than 20 kilometers away from a tributary of the upper Amazon River.
The polar rainbow light in the night made a roaring sound, stirring the boundless night, the headlights were very bright, when the wheels of the locomotive were speeding on the soft land of the forest, I faintly felt the excitement in my heart, yes, this is the feeling, from graduation, to the first change of job, that anxiety, worry, seemed to dissipate without a trace as the lights went away.
After coming to Peru for so many days, this is the first time I have left the camp. In addition to the bike, pistol, and bulletproof vest that Shirley provided me, I also brought a few things from the company -
A flashlight, this thing can help me get out of the car to find my bag, provide stable lighting, and at the same time, this thing has the ability to flash instantly, which has a certain chance to blind the beasts in the forest. At this point, I never thought about facing this thing at people, really.
At the same time, I also brought a land multi-function detector, which can help me quickly scan the terrain at night and find foreign objects on the ground at the same time, this detector consists of two parts, one is the detection device, and the other is the display screen.
First of all, there are several silver-white probe balls with a golden luster, these small balls are from the Ocean Adventurer Company, and when performing exploration missions, they can spread their small metal wings as thin as cicada wings, and fly quickly in various terrains, and at the same time, like bats, scan the terrain through sound waves and quickly react to the terminal screen to form an image.
In addition to sound waves, the detector also has functions such as infrared detection, thermal imaging, and a 25-million-pixel happy camera.
After about half an hour, according to the satellite map sent to me by Shirley, I soon found the place where Shirley said the accident. It's about 30 kilometers from the camp, and according to the road conditions, it's a road that adventurers don't often take, and there are many thorns and bushes along the way, and if it weren't for the good performance of the locomotive, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to get to the starting point so quickly.
According to Shirley, she and several adventurers were driving all the way to the camp when suddenly, a figure appeared in the forest, overturned Shirley's car, and the figure quickly came and went without a trace.
"That guy was at least two meters tall and pitch black, and he had a terrible stench on his body."
Shirley told me that after her car was overturned, there was an explosion so soon that Shirley wouldn't have been able to make it back to camp alive if it hadn't been for the other adventurers. But she and the adventurer's convoy had four cars, according to Shirley, and Shirley was in second place. When the accident happened, the heavy machine gunner on an open-top jeep in the back reacted quickly and drove the monster away, and no one knew if the thing would go and return, so Shirley repeatedly reminded me to be safe.
The scene of the accident was very messy, and the smell of dioxins was in the air for a day, and Shirley's small SUV was on all fours, burned to the point that only a skeleton remained. This shows how violent the explosion was at that time, and only when the scorching heat was fully burned, the car could be burned to the point that only an empty shelf remained.
Looking at the car, I was afraid that Shirley's injuries were worse than they appeared, which made me feel that it was the right choice to insist on not letting Shirley follow me before leaving the camp.
Shirley had a rollover accident the evening of the previous day, and medical treatment took Shirley a night, and Shirley found me overnight, and by the time I had time to get to the scene of the accident, it was already 24 hours later. Although the scene is messy, the situation is not complicated.
After stopping the car, I took a short look at the scene, then handed it over to technology and released the detector. The detector serves two purposes, one is to find Shirley's lost items, and the other is to act as an early warning device to prevent the black thing Shirley said from reappearing.
Ocean Adventures' detector took shape very quickly, covering all terrain within a radius of about 50 square meters in about ten seconds. After a few seconds of rapid loading, a detailed topographic map continues to appear on the screen.
After seeing the scene, in addition to worrying about the big guy who didn't know when it would appear, there was one thing that also made people feel anxious, looking at the topographic map that was gradually taking shape, I couldn't help but start thinking in my heart, what if Shirley's bag was destroyed by the fire in the fire, what would it do?
Just as I was thinking wildly, all of a sudden, there was a strong wind in the forest, and at the same time, a fishy and unpleasant smell came to my nose, looking at the sudden surge of red light on the screen, I could feel my body stiffen in a short moment, from the legs to the waist and then to the shoulders, and finally the facial features.
Call...... It's strange that people are so stressed that they even breathe loudly. Maybe it's to get more oxygen.
There is danger!
In a short period of time, I did only three things, retract the detection screen, engine the car, and turn off the headlights.
Although the dark shadow in the forest was getting closer and closer, I still didn't leave immediately, because at the moment I put away the detection screen, I found the existence of the pocket watch, it and a few purple and cyan stones were lying in the grass not far from me, and the zipper of the fanny pack was open, but it was not broken!
What to do! The big guy who attacked the car yesterday is close at hand, so should I turn around and leave, or get out of the car and get something!
The big guy was so fast that there was barely room for me to think, and about 3 seconds after I noticed this guy, with the sound of sparse grass and trees breaking in the forest, the big guy had already come to me.
In the face of danger, I almost instinctively urged the accelerator, but I was a little unwilling in my heart, and the movement was a little slower, and this stop allowed me to see the appearance of the monster clearly.
This is a chimpanzee more than two meters tall, with almost no hair on its body, a collapsed nose, wide nostrils, hands longer than feet, some strange scales on its head, a pair of eyes in the dark with a terrifying blood red, snorting and roaring, this suddenly looked at my face, my heart was shocked, and in a panic I actually remembered the saying of Infernal Hell, if this guy takes another weapon, it is like a terrible Yaksha or a rakshasa.
It wasn't until much later, when I happened to see this guy again in an adventurer's magazine, that I learned that it was called the black-haired phosphorus monkey, and there were also two varieties of gray and white hair, the lighter the white, the more aggressive. The three species of phosphorus monkeys live on the islands west of Peru and are aquatic apes that live by catching live fish from the sea, and in winter, they also eat the piles of guano on Peruvian islands.
Bird droppings are rich in phosphorus and nitrogen, and due to their special physiology, the ape will leave the phosphorus and nitrogen swallowed into its stomach in a huge band of blood under its throat, and when threatened, it will spew out phosphorus and nitrogen at the same time, causing fire. In some ancient Peruvian texts, it was a terrible monster that would bring suffering.
Hundreds of Chinese fishing boats are inhabited off the coast of Peru every year, and it is said that the Chinese once brought these apes on board, resulting in the tragedy of the fishing boats sinking into the sea.
How did this black-haired phosphor monkey, which was supposed to live on an island in the Pacific Ocean west of Peru, cross the majestic Andes Mountains to the Peruvian forest? It wasn't until I later discovered that in the Pacific Ocean, there was a tyrannosaurus albatross weighing more than 200 pounds and with an arm span of more than 4 meters, that I understood the truth of this.
When I first encountered this thing, it only took me a second to make a very reliable judgment that I was no match for it!
If you can't beat it, then withdraw it. Despite my reluctance, I quickly made the most realistic consideration that night, after all, human life matters, and if I lose my life, I won't be able to bring back Shirley's things.
However, just as I was about to give up, a strange scene happened again.
My arrival alarmed the black-haired phosphorus monkeys in the forest, but the guy didn't attack me right away.
Like me, it also found Shirley's belongings left at the scene of the rollover, and the guy quickly grabbed the bag while swaying his loot triumphantly.
Because the zipper of the bag had been broken, the monkey waved proudly, and actually threw out Shirley's pocket watch, in the night, I could clearly see the faint blue light emitted by the pocket watch, it flew slowly in front of me, I just reached out to take it, and it coincidentally landed in my palm.
Before I could be a little happy, and soon I paid the price, the black orangutan crashed into my locomotive like a heavy truck, and in an instant I was crushed under the car, and I couldn't hold back for a while, and I vomited blood and smelled fishy after being hit hard.
And when I was knocked into Venus, I clearly saw a grayish, slightly fluorescent strange snake appeared in the grass, this snake's eyes were radiating blue light, and its appearance was really weird, and on its head, there was a delicate and unusual yellow flower!
