Chapter 368: Misty Forest (3)
Although Emma is a woman, she is just a trained warrior, and her strength and martial arts can also knock down a few ordinary middle-aged men at will, at this time, under the guidance of Zhou Dong, she quickly tied him on his back with a few ropes, and escaped from the Cthulhu creature that was going crazy.
"Did we escape?"
After escaping for about ten minutes, Emma felt a little more relaxed in her heart, because it was difficult to distinguish the direction in the fog, they only had the means of getting out of the road signs in the fog, but there was no means of convergence, so at this time, she took Zhou Dong and did not go back to other day elves, but walked along the way out, and just walked to the edge of a small stream, so she stopped for a while to rest.
Even if her delicate body is trained, it is not easy to carry Zhou Dong, a big man who is nearly 200 pounds and several percent stronger than ordinary men, for a while.
Zhou Dong sat down by the river, got a handful of water and washed his face, the cold stream water stimulated his spirit better, and when he heard Emma's words to herself, he replied and explained: "That monster won't catch up for the time being, its vital point has eaten me, at least for the time being, there is no way to manipulate the snakes." ”
Hearing this, Emma couldn't help but show fear and fear, and asked worriedly, "Eric, you seem to know the origin of this monster?" ”
Zhou Dong nodded, and did not deny it: "I once saw the description of creatures similar to them in an ancient book, it is an evil creature called Cthulhu, not a native creature of this world, and the adult members of them often have the talent to manipulate the power of the mind like a spirit sucker, and also have a body with the power of a dragon, which is a very difficult and terrifying race." ”
"If only I knew how to do healing." Emma was by his side, watching her lover endure the pain with great distress, and blaming herself for not having any magical talent.
Zhou Dong just smiled slightly, he didn't care much about talent, he just turned his head and looked into the depths of the mist.
"Just now, the snakes were surrounded from all directions, but we broke through in one direction on the road, but we only saw that the snakes were all going in one direction and did not disperse on the way...... I'm afraid there's more than one Cthulhu in this forest, so we'd better get out of this forest as soon as possible. ”
If it weren't for the lack of strength just now, it would be troublesome to go up to death, Emma would definitely rather die than protect Zhou Dong, and now she is worried about his safety, so she didn't say a word, and continued to walk along the direction of the forest exit with him.
It's also strange to say, except for the encounter just now, the two of them were not attacked until they walked out of the misty forest and saw the bright world outside, but they encountered a few beasts that didn't have long eyes, and they didn't need Zhou Dong to do it, and Emma was also killed with three or two swords.
The two of them waited on the edge of the forest for about half a day before they saw a group of sun elves covered in blood rushing out of it.
This fog not only blocks people's vision, but also seems to have the effect of absorbing sound, Zhou Dong obviously noticed that there was something in the forest chasing this group of sun elves, but it was not that they didn't dare to go out of the foggy forest, but there was something heavy on the ground that caused the ground to shake, but there was only a slight sound like a stuffy fart, which was not noticeable.
Seeing Zhou Dong and Emma, this group of sun elves didn't care about the others, and when they turned around and saw that those monsters didn't chase them out, they were somewhat relieved.
However, this group of sun elves was still afraid, and dragged their wounded bodies to the close road, and saw the trade road from the foot of the World Ridge Mountain at the extreme north end of the Feron to the port of Carlin of the Kingdom of Kalinshan at the southern end of the continent, and this road crossed and branched across the entire continent from the middle end.
Zhou Dong and Emma were seven or eight meters away from them, and he could see it at this time, because the snake repellent medicine he was carrying in his backpack at that time was only nine bags, and he and Emma each used one bag, and threw seven bags to this group of elves, but they couldn't protect all eleven of them.
Let's just say that not long ago, when the stream was by, Zhou Dong also took the only two tubes of antidote snake clear and injected Emma, otherwise when he fought with the Cthulhu monster before, Emma was bitten by a lot of snakes, although it was not poisonous, nor was it highly poisonous, but the accumulation of toxins was also very amazing, thanks to Zhou Dong's rich pharmaceutical knowledge in the other world, the effect of the antidote snake clear was extraordinary, so that Emma was not greatly affected.
However, these days the elves are much more unlucky, the eleven people who were in high spirits when they set off, now there are only four people left, namely Nord, Starsha, and a mage and a shooter, and the rest of the druids and other warriors are left in the forest, and the corpses can only become part of the forest when they are corrupted.
The mage was able to escape, but the reason was that he was cowardly and selfish enough, so now that he escaped from the heavens, he actually had some strength left, and he happened to use the smelting technique to rescue the snake venom in his body.
Looking at the side again, Nord saw that the female companion's face gradually turned from green to pale, and his face also showed a sigh of relief, and there was a little more tenderness in her eyes.
It's because in the fierce battle just now, Starsha went to help him several times regardless of his own safety, and also blocked a poisonous snake bite for him.
So when the elven mage helped Stasia to detoxify the snake venom, he didn't want to care about the mage's failure to do his duty just now.
You must know that this elven mage is also a member of his family, and his status is not as good as his, so he has a faint meaning of being a subordinate.
It was also the bad luck of this group of people, and not far away, on the trade road, a caravan appeared, and they immediately rushed over.
This caravan saw that they were a group of elves, just like some people in the original world always thought that foreign things were stronger, and they also felt that the mysterious elves were really inherently better than the human race, so they were quite polite to piggyback on them.
It just so happened that this caravan was also going from south to north to Luskan to do business, and it was possible to take them on a trip to Dagger Beach, where a half-city and half-town town was built.
Nord and the others originally planned to rest in Dagger Beach, and inquire about the movements of the Lizard Swamp, and then set off to the Lizard Swamp to investigate the truth about the ruins of the ancient temple.
After only a few dozen minutes of walking, it was already close to dusk, and the caravan deviated from the main road of the trade road, found a river a few hundred meters away, and set up camp tents.
Zhou Dong and his party also took their clothes to the river, brushed the bloody stains left after the battle in the misty forest, and felt clean and fresh before returning to the camp.
