Chapter 8: The Howling Forest

The scorching heat distorted the view on the road, and even a thick cloak could not block the scorching air currents in front of you. Although Li Xin was reluctant to march in such a hot situation, he decided to take over the character after considering avoiding the gossip of others before he made some achievements.

The temperature on the asphalt road was so high that you could feel the heat under your feet even in thick sneakers, and in front of him was a man with a stronger figure than himself leading the way, and behind him was a group of people who were also wearing heavy animal skin cloaks, all of whom were physically able, and were about to play the role of porters for the rest of the journey.

The weeds on both sides of the road are still thriving, unaffected by the scorching heat, perhaps mutation has changed their genetic chains, making these lush vegetation adapt to the scorching heat, is it true that humans are going to be eliminated in this cruel struggle?

With a bumpy feeling, Li Xin and his party have approached the so-called howling forest, which is a lush tropical rainforest, according to the latitude and longitude of Pangduan, closer to the north latitude near Qiaonan Village, it is absolutely impossible for this strange phenomenon to occur, since the beginning of the cataclysm, all the situation has changed.

"Whoever has been inside can tell me that there are any things in this forest that need attention?" Li Xin retracted all his thoughts, looked at the tropical forest in front of him seriously, and cheered up his spirit, usually the danger of this kind of place is relatively high, and there may be large mutant beasts.

"I'm sorry, none of us have been here, but we should be aware of the remnants of the escaped from Qiaonan Village, who are still hiding in this forest and could attack us at any moment." The big guy who had been leading the way suddenly said.

"That means the Howling Forest isn't as dangerous as it seems?" Li Xin glanced at everyone suspiciously, after all, those who are capable can survive here for a long time, if there is any danger to survive, those so-called remnants of sin will have already been abused and killed. He suddenly asked, "Why is this forest called the Howling Forest?" ”

"It is said that the first person to appear in the forest heard a terrible howl, from which the name of the forest is derived." Hunk honestly.

"Well, I know, but everyone should be careful, you shouldn't want to die in this kind of ghost place, go into the forest, I'll take a look at the mutant beasts here first to make a conclusion." Li Xin suddenly narrowed his eyes, stared at a petite figure in the crowd, and asked rhetorically, "Alice, what are you doing here?" I remember you were a weapon-type powerhouse."

"Nothing, my strength is not weak, maybe I can be put to use." Alice was now named by herself, and explained in a panic.

"Forget it, go into the forest." Of course, Li Xin knew that the other party was sent by someone to spy on him, and as for who this person was, he could also guess it.

After entering the forest, the scorching breath was swept away, and the temperature in the forest was about 32 degrees, which was almost cold compared to the scorching heat outside.

"You wait for me on the periphery, and if anything happens, leave the forest immediately, and I'll look for some prey, and I'll be back soon." After entering the forest, Li Xin turned around and said to everyone.

However, Master Li Xin ...... "The big adult bite is very heavy, for a person living in the free world, there is no habit of adding the word adult to the end of other people's lives." Isn't this too casual, if ......"

"Of course I'm in the situation, at least your situation is not suitable for adventure, you just need to remember your mission." Li Xin interrupted the big man's words, and dispelled the "stupid" thoughts of others in an indifferent tone, their strength is not strong, and even weak, compared to themselves, it is like the gap between adults and children, who wants to let children take risks, at least Li Xin also hopes to be able to keep everyone alive in Qiaonan Village.

He left the group alone, raising his vigilance to the maximum, and if there was any disturbance around him, he could not escape his eyes. The forest is bigger than you believe, and there are pockets of rotting leaves under your feet, and the shoe prints the size of your index finger indicate that the forest has not been formed for a long time, otherwise the thick layer of humus might even trap your feet in it.

There is a soft fluorescence between the trees, which is the light source of the forest, and the source of the fluorescence is a blue flower, which looks a bit like a morning glory that is several times larger. The lush vegetation almost completely blocks the sunlight outside, and the forest becomes the best air conditioner to maintain the normal temperature inside.

There are no birds singing in this forest, and it is as if you have fallen into a deep sleep. Li Xin knew that there was no willingness for birds to call, and the mutated birds would no longer want to eat plants or insects, so naturally they would not be stupid enough to use their calls to remind their prey of their arrival.

In vain, there was a strange movement on the right, and Li Xin knew that a prey had been baited, or it could be said that he had been taken on top, all in all, he could finally use this to get in touch with the situation of the howling forest mutant beast.

A white shadow appeared in the eye, a rabbit? It should be said that it was a mutated rabbit, and the moment it attacked, Li Xin's movements were even more exaggerated, grabbing his front paws and slamming like a big tree.

The sound of thudding echoed through the howling forest. Li Xin walked in and moved away, and finally saw the true face of the prey, it was indeed a mutated rabbit, its ears were shortened a lot, its whole body was fat like a ball, two rabbit teeth came out of its mouth and a row of sharp teeth, the tail disappeared, and there were more claws on its hands, and the short double retreat was enough to support it to stand up.

The short-legged rabbit is not dead, not even injured, perhaps because of its round body, absorbing the damage caused by the impact. Li Xin had a problem, it actually wanted to escape, although its legs were short, it was slow, and in the blink of an eye, it actually crossed Li Xin's side, intending to run to the weeds on the right.

How could Li Xin let it escape like this, the taste of rabbit meat should be good, the short knife shot out of the air, and shot into the weeds where the short-legged rabbit escaped with a brush, and then he followed in, looking left and right at the short-legged rabbit that was pierced through the chest by the short sword in the lush weeds. Li Xin neatly pulled out the dagger and looked at his neck, and the blood overflowed, dyeing the white fur red.

On the outskirts of the forest, Alice anxiously waited for Li Xin's return, and the sound of the cluster attracted the girl's attention, and she pulled out the source of the dagger vigilant sound, and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief after the familiar figure appeared.

"What is this?" The big man appeared as the prey in Li Xin's hands, his eyes lit up, and he hunted a prey in the blink of an eye, which was a good sign.

"Mutant rabbit, skin it and slaughter it." Li Xin commanded. "I need its flesh to attract other mutants."

The big man hurriedly said, "Lord Li Xin, if you want to rely on the smell of blood, you only need its internal organs, so it's too wasteful to use rabbit meat as bait." He took the dagger, peeled it with neat movements, cut open his chest and removed the entrails, and as for the head he cut off with his hands, and wrapped his entrails with the entrails of a twig, and threw the flesh into a sack.

The smell of blood was blown into the forest along the wind, and after waiting for a long time, no prey was attracted by the smell of blood, perhaps because the taste was too weak. Li Xin finally walked out of the hidden place impatiently and let the others enter the forest with him.

Vegetation, trees with weeds, bugs, forests are always dangerous places. A few hulky men made the way ahead, cleaving the bushes with their weapons to open up enough for the group to move forward. Li Xin and the petite Alice are relieved of this complicated figure, and the journey is unwilling, and they find a road swallowed by weeds and shrubs as they cross the forest.

After seeing the traces left by the road, the big man suddenly said: "This was once a low mountain, and it turned into a forest that I couldn't recognize it for a while." ”

"How do you know?" Li Xin was stunned for a moment, and suddenly, there was a burst of sound around him, as if something was approaching.

"Because I was the remnant of your Qiaonan Village" The big man slashed at Li Xin with a machete, his face was unusually hideous.
