There were about one hundred and fifty people gathered on the wall, and the only people who really needed to leave the stronghold to search for food were only sixty of them, and these people were naturally the best of the stronghold, otherwise they would not be able to become members of the stronghold's hunting team and be sent out to search for food for the entire stronghold. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is a very difficult task, there are more than 2,000 people in the whole stronghold, and they have to collect dozens of food for each person on average, so they have to stay in the wild for two or three days, of course, sometimes they are lucky enough to find enough food in just one day, and then easily return to the stronghold, and receive a warm welcome from everyone like heroes.

More often than not, though, they'll spend at least two days in the field, and by the time they return to the base, they've usually lost some of their personnel, and while they're still welcome, there's always a little bit of tragedy in them.

But this was not the worst case, the worst thing was that one hunting party encountered a demon tree seedling while searching for food, and the hunting party went out hunting with more than eighty members, but in the end, less than ten of them returned to the stronghold, which almost caused the entire stronghold to fall apart.

Thankfully, despite the heavy losses, they were able to find enough food to survive the eventually, but at that time, the entire colony felt that the food in their mouths was like gnawing on the flesh and blood of their fallen comrades.

This made them feel very sick in their hearts, but there was no way for them to live, they had to eat the food that was exchanged for the lives of their companions - this is the end times.

Once, they also thought that the end of the world was a thing of the past under the protection of the gods, and it was not until the advent of the Demon Tree that they knew that everything was just beginning.

……

After the prayer was over, the hunting party of sixty people jumped off the wall and walked towards the unknown world outside the stronghold, the surrounding environment they had naturally already understood, but no one knew what would happen in this familiar environment, so everyone maintained a high degree of vigilance during the walk.

It turned out that their vigilance was not superfluous, they had only left the stronghold for more than forty minutes, and as they were crossing a bush, a dark shadow suddenly burst out from the ground, it was a strange creature covered in dark armor with a hideous mouth on the top, and the creature pounced on the nearest Jack like lightning!

Jack, who had always been vigilant, had already reacted when the black shadow had just emerged half of his head from the ground, and jumped diagonally backwards with great speed, seeing that he easily dodged the other party's bite.

But I saw that the black shadow's body, which had been stretched to the extreme, shrank and flicked, and it was stretched out again and chased after Jack, who had already dodged, and tore off a large piece of flesh from his thigh, and in an instant, blood was splashed!

Jack's thigh was at least torn off a few pounds of flesh, but he used his intact left leg to the ground as if he was nothing, and rushed directly towards the black shadow again without retreating, and at the same time pulled out a pale machete from his waist, and slashed at the dark red body of the black figure that was exposed from under the black armor because of the elongated body!

I don't know what material the pale machete was, under Jack's wielding, it made a whirring sound like an angry roar, obviously the strength of his hand was also amazing, and with the blessing of great power, the machete seemed to cut through the air, and it was very easy to cut the figure into two pieces!

From the sudden attack of the black shadow, until it was cut in two, everything happened between the lightning and the fire, and it was only at this time that the people scattered around carefully surrounded it, and after confirming that there was no danger, everyone also completely relaxed their vigilance, and Kevin also gently kicked the half of the creature that was still struggling on the ground with his foot.

He quickly recognized the origin of the creature, and said with some disappointment: "Jack, your piece of meat is blind, just a juvenile death worm, and if you die, you can take out ten catties of meat, this business is not cost-effective." ”

Judging from Kevin's tone, he didn't seem to care about the terrible wound on Jack's leg, and Jack here also rinsed the blood stains on the wound with water, and said with a wry smile: "This pants have been bitten, and Lucy will definitely have to worry for a long time after going back, alas!" ”

As the blood stains were cleared away, you could see the wound that should have been blurred with flesh and blood, but at this time, an intact thigh was exposed, except for a large piece of skin that was faintly whiter than other places, and there were blood stains on the pants, and there was no trace of the injury just now.

Obviously, Jack's ability is super self-healing, and the rest of the hunting party has long been used to it, so no one pays attention to his "injury" at all, and they are all dealing with the death worm that Jack has just chopped in two.

They first killed the dead worm completely, then buried it back in the soil, and smeared a special liquid on the trunk of a nearby tree, the smell of the liquid would guide the prey bearers in the colony to come here and carry it back to the colony, after all, mosquito legs are also meat, and this juvenile dead worm has much more meat than mosquito legs.

After doing all this, he moved on, the hunting party had a heavy task on their shoulders, they had to hurry up and search for as much food as possible, and at the same time, they were also responsible for their own lives, because the longer they stayed in the wild, the more dangerous they became.

For most of the next half of the day, they successively searched for or encountered many fierce beasts of all kinds, among which they were basically high-level and top-level fierce beasts such as pangolins, armored rhinos, and double-headed fire lions, and even the proportion of top-level fierce beasts was higher, but as for the middle and low-level fierce beasts, they didn't see any of them.

However, everyone in the hunting team seems to have become accustomed to it, and in the face of those terrifying top-level beasts, they all show their magical powers - ice and earth are used to imprison and restrict the actions of the beasts, while they also provide protection for their own side, and fire, thunder and the like are mainly responsible for exporting beasts.

With everyone's concerted efforts, there were basically no fierce beasts that could last more than five minutes in their hands, and it only took them half a day to complete almost half of the hunting task, which made them all feel a little relaxed, and even the smile on Kevin's face increased.

However, this euphoria did not last long, and as they were about to find a place to rest at night, they encountered a scene they never wanted to see—a tall cedar tree, which was so common near the Rocky Mountains, suddenly cracked in the middle, revealing the six neatly arranged tusks in the trunk!

A black strong man who was originally leaning on the cedar tree fell directly into the trunk, and then the trunk was clamped violently, and blood flowers suddenly sprayed out from the crack in the trunk, but the black strong man was not a rookie, and the cedar tree was frozen into a popsicle in the blink of an eye after the white light flashed on his body, and at the same time, he shook his whole body, and the monster fir tree shattered into ice slag on the ground.

But this is only the beginning, in this cedar forest where the hunting team is located, almost all the cedar trees have turned into monsters with teeth and claws at the same time, countless branches have turned into sharp claws and grabbed at them, and dense needle-like leaves have shot at them, and someone has already been hit immediately.

"Damn! There's a demon tree here! Faced with this sudden situation, the hunting party fell into a panic, and the panic quickly spread, and someone shouted in panic, "We have entered the trap of the Demon Tree, and we are all going to die here!" (To be continued.) )
