Chapter 17: The Strange Forest

The cold wind swept the land like a knife.

It's November, and the fallen leaves in the forest are spreading layer after layer on the ground, and you can step on them to cover the upper of your shoes.

On this day, Jiang Ming sat there with his back against a big tree, crossed Erlang's legs, and lay on the ground with a tail five or six meters long behind his back, sweeping and sweeping.

A few dozen meters away from him, a group of adult aliens gathered.

Not only that, but aliens kept running out of the entrance of the nest to join the team.

In ten minutes, the number has exceeded fifty.

"That's enough."

Jiang Ming pondered.

With a wave of his hand, let the later aliens return to the lair.

Now the alien army in this mountain range is close to a thousand! Except for the hundreds of nests, the rest are scattered on various hills as guards.

The purpose of his action this time is to mutate the rhinoceros.

Now that the appearance of mutant rhinoceros in the Celestial Empire has been made public, this mountain range is bound to welcome a large number of humans.

However, this is exactly what Jiang Ming wants to see the most!

This is an old forest deep in the mountains, no one disturbs it, and the alien race can develop steadily.

Once a large number of humans appear, the xenomorphs will definitely be spotted unless they all hide in their nests.

If it's those poachers, kill it, it doesn't matter.

And those experts and scholars who came here to investigate, animal lovers, he was unwilling to kill innocents indiscriminately.

However, after all, he has to put the interests of the community first, and sometimes he can't help himself.

Then again, whether it's poaching or expedition or whatever, it's not going to be too big, it's not going to be too many.

But it must be that batches continue to come in, and after a long time, there are hundreds or thousands of people, to say the least.

These people are nothing, and the aliens have the strength to leave them all behind and kill them!

It's not even difficult!

Moreover, these people can also be used as food or hosts, which is quite beneficial to the alien race.

On the surface, this is still a good thing.

But Eme doesn't think so!

As a human being, he knows that once there are too many dead people in a certain place and there is an unusual change, it will definitely attract the attention of the relevant state departments, and then intervene in the investigation.

The aliens have left too many traces on the mountains for ordinary people to see, and it doesn't mean that these professionals are the same.

So, it is likely to cause some unnecessary trouble when the time comes.

He is still cautious about state forces and does not want to come into contact with them.

If you want to end this qiē, you naturally have to solve it at the source.

And it all started with the mutant rhinoceros.

"Let's go."

Jiang Ming gave the order and waved forward.

Behind him, dozens of aliens screamed with their heads raised and followed him towards his destination.

Don't look at the large number of aliens and huge bodies, if you change to the same number of elephants, it will definitely shake the ground and shake the mountains, similar to an earthquake.

But the aliens are different, they are lighter than felines, and even when they run at full speed, they have little movement.

Due to the long distance, the aliens of the Ename belt are good at speed.

For example, aliens born with jackals, leopards, etc.

They are generally not large, with a length of just about two meters without a tail, and a slender body.

But compared to parasitic black bears, wild boars and other aliens, they are more agile and neat.

As the sun sets, the sky gets dark.

Jiang Ming took the lead and ran all day without stopping to rest.

The average elevation of these mountains is more than two thousand meters, and it does take some time to traverse them.

"Whew!"

In the process of hurrying, Jiang Ming easily solved a black wild boar, and the feeding straw behind his back stretched out to replenish his own energy.

The other aliens were not idle, and the slightly larger wild animals on the road became the souls of the dead under their claws and the food in their stomachs.

It wasn't until noon the next day that a group of xenomorphs reached their destination.

Unlike humans, xenomorphs have a hard time feeling tired as long as they have enough energy.

Even if you run continuously for a few days, it is only a large consumption of energy, and after a short rest, it is fierce again.

After a while, Emei opened his mouth to order.

"You guys look over there."

He pointed to the southeast and ordered the remaining adult aliens, in groups of five, to disperse in search of mutant rhinos.

Alien creatures are similar to machine qì, they don't need much rest time, and even if they run intensely, they can be put into operation again as long as they slow down.

After half a month of running-in, his language ability tends to be perfect.

His language is connected to his consciousness, and speaking to the alien is equivalent to giving orders directly in his consciousness.

This is the synchronization of language and thinking.

So, the aliens could understand what he was saying.

Similarly, if he had something else in his head while he was talking, the aliens would not have known what he was doing.

After all, this is the language of the human race, not the language of the alien race.

"Boom la la ......"

The stream was babbling, and a small river two or three meters wide flowed through the silent forest.

With the remaining three adult aliens, Eina searched along the river.

He has no experience in the wild, only seeing on TV that animals like to have water.

Come to think of it, water is the source of life, and nothing can do without it.

It may be faster to find it this way.

All the way upstream, the water was roaring, and from time to time there were fat hares jumping and frolicking, but when they saw a few behemoths in Jiang Ming, they were so shocked that they hurriedly fled.

Next to a large tree in the foreground on the left, a huge wild boar hummed and chirped and lowered its head to graze.

When Jiang Ming and them appeared, they were so frightened that they turned around and ran away.

Four little short-legged tigers are in the wind!

"Poof."

There was a soft thud and a splash of water.

Eina looked sideways and saw a frog the size of a plate jumping into the river.

"Goo...... Gollum ......"

Above the head, several large blackbirds with basins were noisy, circling back and forth.

After a while, a few bubbles of thin were pulled out and landed beside them.

One of the bubbles also landed on the back of a alien next to him.

"Grass!"

Jiang Ming was disgusted for a while, a little disgusted.

The further you go, the dimmer the light becomes.

There are more and more insects and birds chirping in the ears, and there are some unknown strange sounds, which make people panic and creepy.

Jiang Ming stopped, he realized that something was wrong, there were too many wild animals in this mountain, almost ten times more than other places! And it's also much larger.

Not only that, but even the vegetation is thick and dense!

Even if it is a primeval forest, it is impossible to be full of big trees with trunks eight or nine stories high and three or four meters in diameter or even thicker.

What is the concept of this diameter?

It's about the size of a hut in cross-section!

And they grow so densely, almost every few meters!

During this season, the leaves have begun to turn yellow and fall off.

But it's still green, like the height of summer.

The umbrella-like canopy of these large trees is fully stretched out, obscuring the sky and the sun, and the branches between the trees are knotted and layered, and they are completely entangled, and it is impossible to distinguish who is who.

They act like a thick canopy that completely covers the forest and forms a separate space.

The sun was scorching outside, and the slightest sunlight in the forest could not penetrate it, as if night had fallen.

Cold!

Being in this place is like opening the refrigerator in winter, and there is always a biting chill.

The mountain was normal when it first came in, but when it went deeper, it became weird.

Jiang Ming turned his head to look.

The ground was overgrown with shrubs, the surface was deciduous, and there was a layer of palm-thick moss, like a green carpet, and even some of the big trees had climbed.

The vines that were wrapped around the waist of the tree, like a bridge between the trees, made him tremble.

There are quirks!

According to scientific theory, there is a limit to what can be supported by plants per cubic meter of land.

Because plant growth needs to draw nutrients from the land, more nutrients, plants are full of life, less nutrients, and plants do not grow large.

Similarly, if there are more plants in a piece of land, then the average nutrients will be less, and it will naturally not be able to thrive.

And almost all the big trees here are three or five meters thick or even thicker, eight or nine stories high!

What's more, the distance between the two plants is only a few meters!

With such a dense tree, it is understandable that a small patch appears, but based on where Ename walked, it is likely that the entire mountain is like this!

The bulk density of plants and animals is extremely abnormal!

"The land here is so rich in nutrients that it can support this density of vegetation, and even the most fertile land in the world, the Mississippi River Basin in the United States, is far behind."

Jiang Ming sighed that if the nutrients in ordinary land are a sesame seed, then the nutrients in the land here are just a watermelon, which is not at the same level at all.

Although he felt that something was wrong, he had no way to find out.

"Roar ............!!!"

Suddenly, a violent roar sounded not far away, shaking the surrounding leaves.

Flakes of frightened birds fluttered their wings and flew over the forest.

"It's ...... The sound of a tiger? ”

Jiang Ming listened intently, surprised.

It's no wonder that he can't confirm that his family used to be poor, and he has never been to the zoo in 20 years, and he has never seen a real tiger or heard a real tiger roar.

However, I have never eaten pork and have always seen pigs run, and now social information is extremely developed, and he has seen and heard about it on TV and the Internet.

But after media processing, there is always some distortion.

"Over there."

Jiang Ming stretched out his hand and pointed forward, and several adult alien limbs behind him used together, and ran forward beyond him.

"Roar!!"

"Hiss ......"

Getting closer and closer, Jiang Ming saw a huge colorful tiger through the gap through the layers of bushes.

"Siberian tigers!"

He was in high spirits, and it was a wish to see the tiger with his own eyes.

However, before his excitement passed, immediately after, Jiang Ming's expression was full, and opposite the Siberian Tiger, there was an even more terrifying creature!
