It was noon, but the forest was still dark, as if it were still dusk, and the trees and shrubs cast large shadows on the ground in the dimness, and sometimes the sound of small footsteps sounded from the dark shadows, and strange figures flashed under the cover of the shadows, and then came often the short screams of small animals, and the tingling of chewing on the spine.

The forest is hot and humid, the ground, the fallen leaves and soil are soaked with water vapor, under the scorching heat, the curling mist rises from the ground, steaming upward, the mist is faint, like a light veil in the air, can not hinder the vision, but in the dark forest, it is enough to make the vision more blurred.

Except for the rising mist, the dense forest was almost completely stagnant, there was no wind, no rain, the trees and shrubs remained motionless as if frozen, and every leaf remained still, as if it were just a dead thing carved by the artists. However, the occasional birdsong overhead adds a bit of life to the still picture.

"Bang la bang", a sound of flapping wings broke the stagnation in the forest, countless birds perched on the canopy were alarmed, flapping their wings and rushing into the sky, the branches and leaves on the canopy were touched by the startled birds, shaking violently and making a rustling sound. The startling of the birds seemed to send a signal, and the bushes in the forest began to shake, and countless little beasts burrowed in and out of the bushes, and quickly hid in the chaos to safety, revealing only a pair of curious eyes, shining in the gloom of the forest, staring in the same direction.

"Rustle, rustle. In the direction that the little beasts were staring at, there was no human figure in the dense lost forest, but the footsteps of Suo Suo came from the depths of the dense forest uninterruptedly, the footsteps were light and dexterous, and the steps seemed to have a strange rhythm between them, and they quickly approached in the misty fog. Suddenly, the curious little beasts in the bushes quickly retracted, and even their shining eyes were no longer exposed, and a sharp sound of breaking wind sounded, and several feathered arrows emerged from the mist, and disappeared into a bush that had not moved. After a terrible scream, a fox the size of a wolf burst out of the bushes, with two feathered arrows on one side of its body, and escaped into the depths of the dense forest with blood, and the little blood stains on the fallen leaves on the ground followed its footsteps and stretched into the darkness.

The footsteps in the forest did not change, and the man who shot the feathered arrow still stepped rhythmically, emerging from the faint white mist. The person who appeared was wearing a pitch-black cloak, his face was also wrapped in a black cloth, and his whole body barely showed a trace of skin, and only a pair of pale green eyes could show their race. One after another, cloaked elves emerged from the forest, arranged in a semi-arc formation, quickly taking over the dense bush jungle. These elves walk in a peculiar way, with their upper bodies bowed down, their legs bent between squatting and standing, and their body leaning forward sharply, giving the impression that they are an arrow on a bowstring that may gallop forward at any moment.

In fact, they did exactly that, galloping through the forest in such a manner. The Lost Forest, or the entire Forest of Death, the terrain is very complex, with raised roots, staggered vines, wooden stakes left behind after death, and a large number of obstacles that affect the movement are densely scattered throughout the forest area, and what is even more terrifying is that these obstacles are all hidden under the thick fallen leaves, if people who are not familiar with the forest walk here, I am afraid that they can only carefully explore and move forward, as long as they are not careful, they may trip over the hidden obstacles, and then the poisonous insects and insect monsters hidden in the fallen leaves and soil will be very happy to try to enjoy this delicious dish delivered to the door。

However, the dense obstacles did not seem to exist at all for these cloaked elves, who maintained this strange posture, marching in rhythmic steps, each step was only a light touch on the fallen leaves on the ground, and the fallen leaves had not had a chance to sink, and the people had left their original positions, as if they had lost their weight and were floating against the ground.

"Goo~~~Goo~~~Goo~~~" There were nearly thirty people in the cloaked elves, and after quickly occupying the shrubland in the forest, one of the elves emitted a strange birdsong from under the black cloth on his face. As soon as the birdsong sounded, the rustling of leaves rubbed against each other in the canopy overhead, and the grinding sound faded away, and at the same time there was a cry of another bird in the distance.

A few minutes later, footsteps came from far and near, and a dozen or so figures emerged from the mist and arrived in the occupied area. In the shadows behind them, an unknown number of cloaked figures swayed, some of them skirting the area from the side, passing over the crowd in the same position, and rushing towards the unoccupied area ahead. And the dozen or so figures stopped when they walked into the bushes, and no longer continued to move forward, these more than ten people were naturally the six members of the adventure group, and the demigods who escorted them all the way, and the ones who cleared the obstacles along the way for them were the most elite royal court guards among the elven forest guards, every member of the royal court guards was the best ranger, and the forest action was extremely experienced, even if he chose any member and threw him into the depths of the forest, he could eventually return to the elven royal court very safely. The girls found that with them as escorts, there was not a single battle broke out along the way, and they did not encounter a single danger, and they were obviously in the dangerous Lost Forest, but they were comfortable as if they were walking in the garden of the Holy Capital Mansion.

"Hey, this blood...... Tsk, this is the blood of the phantom fox. As soon as Pannis arrived nearby, he smelled blood, walked over and picked up a few blood-stained fallen leaves, put them under his nose and smelled them, and said in surprise: "Do you remember the squad leader under Dora, also called Phantom Fox, this is her blood." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, this should be the blood of the real phantom fox. Catherine gave Pannis a blank look, and took the leaves he had handed over, but no matter how much the maiden smelled it, there was only a pungent smell of blood except the stench of decay from the fallen leaves, and it was impossible to distinguish the type of bleeding owner from the smell of blood.

"Should we say that we are lucky or unlucky?" The humid environment makes the fallen leaves rot quickly, and after touching it, it will always be sticky on the hands, Pannis wiped the mud on his hands and said: "This kind of magical beast is rare, unless you look for it purposefully, if you venture in the forest, you may not be able to hit one in a few years, and it is also a rare legendary level phantom fox, this should be considered good luck." ”

"Stop studying the bloodstains, Kyle, come and rest. Vral's magnetic voice called back the attention of the two: "Lunch is only fifteen minutes away, and if you don't want to enjoy a walk in the rain, you better not delay." (To be continued.) )
