readx;? Green's sudden words startled everyone. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info then everyone looked in the direction of the dense forest, in the thick night, the moonlight obviously could not light up the darkness in the dense forest, and could only barely find a vague shadow of the tree, like a group of beasts with teeth and claws. Other than that, nothing can be seen clearly.

"Are you having a nightmare?" said Ian, "obviously nothing."

Before Ian finished speaking, a strong uneasiness welled up in his heart. He had a vague feeling that he was locked by something, something was staring at him, right in the dense forest, staring at him. That gaze made him feel dangerous, so that the Dragon Flame Mark, which had not moved for a long time, once again felt like a fire.

Ian glanced at Dennis, who understood. One of them held a sword, the other held a sword, and a torch in his hand, and approached the dense forest little by little. Now everyone knew what was wrong, and both Quintina and Aris put their hands on the hilt of their swords.

Everyone stared nervously at the backs of Ian and Dennis, for fear that something would come out of the jungle and swallow them.

Ian and Dennis slowly approached the woods. The former glanced at the latter, and Dennis nodded, raising the torch high so that the light could illuminate farther away. Ian stooped down and plunged into the woods, followed by Dennis, and the two disappeared from view.

The moment he entered the jungle, Ian felt the uneasiness stuck in his heart for a moment reached its peak. But it was only for a moment, and in the next second, that feeling disappeared, and the dense forest once again returned to the silence of the night.

Ian stopped and looked up. I saw that the moonlight was sprinkled on the ground through the gaps between the branches and leaves, leaving patches of light of different sizes, and the breeze blew, the branches and leaves were blown rustling, and the spots of light also swayed, like another starry sky.

"There's nothing here. Dennis slowed down and came to Ian's side, "It's quiet. ”

"yes. Ian nodded slightly.

"Was it Green's delusion?" Dennis asked, "I didn't feel anything just now, and besides, he was still sleeping." ”

"You better trust his feelings. "He's no ordinary man, and I just felt it." ”

"You feel it too?" Dennis was a little surprised, "What do you feel?"

"Dangerous. ”

Ian walked forward again, coming to a large tree before stopping, and Dennis saw him reach out and rub it lightly against the bark. Dennis followed in confusion, and when he walked behind Ian, he noticed two scratches on the bark. At first, he thought it was the mark that the team had carved with their knives six years ago, but he soon felt that something was wrong, the two scratches were very wide, far from the width of a normal sword.

"Is there any animal in the jungle that can have such sharp claws?" Ian turned to look at Dennis, "You know what?"

"Yes, like the spotted leopard. ”

"Spotted leopard?"

"Well, a four-star threat. "It's quick, it's not weak, it's aggressive, it's not intellectual." For the rest, you can ask Nicole, who knows a lot about this creature, because her final assignment at the Hunter Academy is the spotted leopard. ”

"Well, does the spotted leopard climb trees?" Ian pointed to the scratches on the bark, "The thing that was here just now seems to have climbed into a tree." ”

Dennis looked up at the canopy. However, I couldn't see anything clearly, and the light that the torches could emit was so limited that I could only see the shadows of the trees, and I couldn't see the tranquility that was hidden by the darkness.

"The spotted leopard can climb trees. "In the records of the hall, this creature is as cunning as a hunter, hiding itself in the trunk of a tree, watching its prey, and then falling from the sky to deliver the deadliest blow to it." ”

"You're saying we might be prey to that creature?"

Dennis's words made Ian's scalp tingle a little, and the darkness above his head already made people mumble in his heart. Now he was told that the leopard, which could swoop down at any moment in the darkness and kill them, was even more terrifying. Even though Ian has seen creatures that are many times more terrifying than leopards, humans are born with a fear of the unknown when it comes to the unseen in the dark.

"It doesn't have to be a spotted leopard. "As far as I know, the spotted leopard's claws are not that big. However, I don't know if the spotted leopard here is different from the outside, and in the dense forest, there is not only the spotted leopard with claws. ”

"But as far as I know, there is no mildness as a guy with claws. Ian laughed, "Don't tell me about cats, cats scratch people." ”

Eventually, the two returned to the camp and told the crowd that they had seen nothing but two scratches. But this does not put everyone at ease, and not seeing it does not mean that there is nothing, it only means that they are now helpless about the thing that looked at them just now. Whether it's a spotted leopard, a python, or even a kitten, as long as it climbs up a tree, they can't pull it out in this case, right?

After dinner, the people were ready to go to bed. Tonight is a vigil by Aris and Green, and the others can rest assured that they will have a good night's sleep. But Ian couldn't sleep, because he didn't think the two scratches he had seen earlier didn't look like a creature like a spotted leopard.

If it was such a creature, his Dragon Flame Mark should not react. But before the dragon flame inscription had a reaction, yes, the pain in his arm as if it was burning, and before that, this reaction had also appeared a few times, and after that, he encountered the Sharptail Spine Dragon, the Fire Naga and the Sea Naltimis, respectively.

Based on the experience of the first three times, Ian believed that the Dragonflame Seal would only react to the Dragons.

Could it be that there was a dragon watching them from where they were?

The thought of this made Ian feel even more uneasy. He rolled over and stared straight into the forest, trying to find the pair of dazzling golden pupils in the darkness. It's a pity that there was nothing there, only darkness, and shadows swaying in the moonlight, like monsters with teeth and claws.
