Chapter Twenty-Three: Heavy Casualties!
Lin Yi took the rest of the people and quickly reversed along the original mark, each of them a little anxious. After all, the forest is the most dangerous when night falls, and if you don't leave, it's a dead end.
Along the way, it was not quiet, and as the light in the forest became weaker and weaker, the visibility was very low. However, Lin Yi and the others have undergone reinforcement, and their natural eyesight is much stronger, and they can barely see clearly.
Lin Yi took the lead, followed by Li Xueying, and the four team members behind him. In the forest, it was very quiet, only the sound of rotting branches and leaves that everyone walked on, and even their breathing could be heard clearly.
Call!
Suddenly, a wave of wind and waves hit on the left, startling everyone with goosebumps. And in the bushes in the left hand of a young man, there was a swift black shadow that pounced out, and the hideous fangs looked a little infiltrating.
Everyone saw that the black shadow was about to bite him off, the situation was very critical, with Lin Yi's distance and speed at the moment, it was impossible to rescue.
Drink!
At the moment of crisis, a coquettish cry came, and Lin Yi was surprised to find that Li Xueying on the side suddenly flickered and disappeared, and the whole person turned into a shadow flashed, and the black shadow in front of him suddenly froze.
Roar!
A terrible scream came, and the black shadow fell to the ground, and was standing up quickly, but it seemed to stagger. Only then did everyone see clearly that this was another dire cat, extremely majestic, like a huge tiger.
However, what is surprising is that two huge cuts were cut on the neck of this dire cat, and the blood was pouring down, bright red and dazzling, obviously hit hard.
And it turned out to be Li Xueying, a delicate beauty, who was holding sharp bone spurs in her hands at the moment, and blood was sliding down, which looked very amazing.
Roar!
The injured dire cat was very irritable and uneasy, and turned and jumped into the bushes, trying to escape. It's a pity that before Lin Yi could make a move, Li Xueying took the lead in attacking, and her figure disappeared in a flash, turning into an afterimage.
Then, there was a terrible howl from the bushes, and then Li Xueying was seen dragging a huge scary cat out, and everyone was dumbfounded.
Several team members originally thought that she didn't have much combat power, but now it seems that this delicate beautiful nurse is much more powerful than them.
Especially her ghostly speed, even Lin Yi was a little surprised, guessing that it must be because of the shadowless footwork she learned, otherwise there would not be this speed.
"Let's go, keep going, and try to get back to the hospital before nightfall." Lin Yi directly ordered to continue on the road.
Everyone woke up, and a young man directly took the dead dire cat and quickly followed the team. Several people are very fast, this road is destined to be unpeaceful, encountered many attacks, but they were all wiped out by everyone, but unfortunately a few times failed to continue to hunt these attacks of the dinosaur cats.
Lin Yi didn't want to delay time, if he couldn't kill those attacking dire cats with one blow, he could only let them escape. Finally, after a lot of twists and turns, the few people finally walked out of the forest and returned to the hospital.
Call!
As soon as everyone returned here, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and finally rushed back. Moreover, at this moment, there is not much light in the void, and it is obvious that night has fallen.
After Lin Yi returned here, he found that a group of people were waiting here, and it turned out to be Mo Long and others. When they saw Lin Yi and the others come back, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, this was specifically waiting for them to come back.
"You're back, we didn't think we could come back!"
Mo Long and the others walked quickly, and they all looked a little shocked, because Lin Yi and the others had hunted and killed a full five fierce beasts, all of which were prehistoric and powerful beasts, and they were afraid of cats.
Five dire cats, this is the harvest, ten people can hunt these five dire cats? Mo Long and the others had to be shocked, because their respective teams didn't have so much gain, and even some of the squads didn't.
The most important thing is that the other teams have suffered heavy casualties, and even one team almost perished. Although Mo Long and the others were surprised, they didn't talk nonsense at all, and quickly ordered everyone to take over the prey and take Lin Yi to the side.
"Go and rest, and then you're ready to roast the prey."
After Lin Yi instructed a few team members, he nodded to Li Xueying, who understood it and went back. She went to find Jiang Qinqin, naturally she went to her side to rest, and by the way, she saw if Wenwen was okay.
"Lin Yi, this time to explore the path, our respective teams have suffered heavy losses."
At this time, when they came to the inner hall of the hospital, everyone had already set up several piles of flames. Lin Yi, Mo Long and the others were sitting around a fire, discussing the losses and gains this time.
"On my side, a team entered the forest, and within half an hour, they were attacked, and one person died at once, seriously injured two team members, and finally encountered a lot of attacks, and two died." Zhou Ning said with a solemn face.
On the side, there are many people, these are the captains who led the team this time. However, many people bowed their heads heavily, and no one spoke, obviously losing a lot of money.
"My team didn't have any losses, but they encountered a lot of green disgusting worms, but in the end, there was no damage, and I picked back a lot of fruits, which can be eaten with confidence, and there is no poison."
At this time, a young man sitting opposite said with some joy on his face. He led a team of ten people into the forest, and was lucky not to be attacked, only a large group of blue-green insects, and was not attacked.
Moreover, they picked a large pile of fruit, which they could eat, just like apples. Lin Yi was holding one in his hand, and he was tasting it in one bite, and found that it tasted really good, at least he could satisfy his hunger.
"On my side, I hunted two dire cats, these prehistoric beasts are too powerful." Mo Long shook his head with a wry smile.
His team only hunted two dire cats, and also lost one team member. In this case, fortunately, there are no greater casualties, otherwise I would really have to cry, and there is no way.
Among the people, their respective teams were killed or wounded, and the most miserable was one team, and only two people came back alive. The other teams had their own casualties, some with three or two dead, and some with more than half of them.
However, what made everyone feel heavy was that more than half of the casualties were nothing, and the most important thing was that they didn't find much food back. Many teams didn't gain much, and the ones that gained more were Mo Long and Zhou Ning's teams.
Zhou Ning's team died a lot, but they came back from hunting three fierce beasts, one of which was a dire cat, and a fierce beast that had been like a hairy pig, which was very huge.
And there are two other teams that have a good harvest, one is a burly man, his team killed two people, but killed three strong beasts, this is his team's harvest.
There is also a team, Lin Yi can't remember what the name is, but the harvest is also good. Among the people, the team that gained the most was Lin Yi's team, with five fierce beasts, all of them were fast and powerful dinosaurs.
"Lin Yi, your team hunted five dire cats and lost four people, so it can be said that the harvest is good." Mo Long was a little amazed, and had to doubt that his strength was strong.
Lin Yi's face was very heavy, and he shook his head and said: "We have suffered heavy losses, if we continue like this, all the people who can fight will die, how can we survive like that?" ”
Alas!
Everyone sighed and fell silent, and then, Lin Yi said: "Have you noticed that we have experienced the catastrophe for two days now, and now it is nightfall, don't you think it's strange?" ”
"It's useless to be weird, and I don't know where this is."
Some people shook their heads and smiled bitterly, this is true, it is useless to think about this. But Lin Yi didn't think that he had to understand some laws of this world, otherwise it would be difficult to survive.
"Everyone, the meat is cooked, let's eat it first, and we are discussing tomorrow's plan."
At this time, Mo Long stood up directly, it turned out that those fierce beasts had already been roasted, and everyone's hungry eyes were glowing green, and now they must be going to eat a big meal.
The prey that everyone hunted back was enough for three hundred people to eat a full meal, and as for the next one, they had to plan tomorrow's hunt, otherwise they would probably have nothing to eat tomorrow.
Looking at the crowd around the fire, men, women and children, their faces were a little happy, as if returning to the primitive society, the joy of human beings in the face of the harvest, it made people feel very unreal.
Lin Yi didn't have an appetite, but instead thought about some of the situations encountered in the forest today, carefully recalled some of the situations he had observed, and prepared for tomorrow, hoping that there would be no more casualties like this.
In fact, his team suffered casualties, and one was that three people began to retreat. Because of the fear of seeing the huge centipede bite and kill a person, this situation led to a relatively large number of casualties.
"Lin Yi, this is for you, why don't you eat something?"
At this time, a petite figure sat on the side and handed over a huge dire cat, this is Li Xueying. When she saw that Lin Yi didn't eat, she brought over a roasted dire cat leg, and she was a little worried.
"Lin Yi, are you encountering any problems, maybe we can help you by saying it?"
Another soft word came, and Jiang Qinqin also came to sit down beside her, hugging Ye Wen, who was already well. This little girl was staring at Lin Yi with big curious eyes.
"Big brother, why don't you eat, if you don't eat, you'll be hungry, this is for you." Xiao Yewen asked crisply, and handed over a big fruit.
Hehe!
Lin Yi shook his head with a smile and said, "Wenwen, you can eat it yourself, the eldest brother has eaten the fruit." ”
After he finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the two beauties beside him, and found that many people around him were envious. Mo Long and the others' faces were a little strange, and he felt furious in his heart, and finally everyone burst into laughter.
"Lin Yi, hurry up and eat, we have to go into the forest to hunt tomorrow." Mo Long shouted as he nibbled on the barbecue.
Alas!
Lin Yi sighed in his heart, didn't say anything, took the beast meat handed by Li Xueying, and ate it directly. In the entire hospital, the 300 or so people who survived were somewhat stable, because after eating a meal of meat, it can be said that they saw a lot of hope.
In the middle of the night, everyone ate in front of the fire, and discussed together, talking and laughing, at least not as flustered and frightened as before.
"It's late, let's all go and rest!"
Lin Yi chatted with the two beauties until late at night, and suggested that Jiang Qinqin and them go back to rest, after all, it was very late, and everyone was tired after a busy day.
