Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Creek
The outer layer of the Yongge Forest.
The angry ink snake was still chasing after Xu Minghao and the two, and it didn't want to let go of the culprit who destroyed its old nest so easily.
And the sky in the Yongge Forest finally darkened completely.
"Mingyue, what should we do now?" Shrimp asked anxiously.
Xu Minghao had already taken out the night vision goggles from his backpack and put them on in a hurry, the light in the Yongge Forest was too dim, and he couldn't see the road ahead clearly.
"I can only continue to run to the inner layer of the Yongge Forest, I can't turn back, it's better to try my luck in the inner layer." Xu Minghao replied.
Xu Minghao and Xiami had already put on night vision goggles, and the two of them rushed desperately in the direction of the inner layer.
However, the ink snake behind chased more and more slowly, and even stopped at the end, no longer chasing Xu Minghao and them, just kept roaring in place.
"What's going on? Why didn't the ink snake chase us? Shrimp asked.
Xu Minghao also noticed the situation in the rear at this time and stopped.
"There's only one reason why it won't hunt us down, and that's that we're now in the inner layers of the Eternal Song Forest." Xu Minghao said a little uneasily.
If the outer layer of the Yongge Forest is an adventure place for players from Tier 0~2, then the inner layer is a place where Tier 3 to Tier 4 players can barely take risks.
What's more, now that Xu Minghao is only level 0, it is dangerous to reach the inner layer of the Yongge Forest during the day, let alone at night.
"Is the inner layer of the Eternal Song Forest dangerous?" Shrimp asked suspiciously.
"Danger? If in the face of the ink snake, you can still be regarded as nine deaths and one life, then when you reach the inner layer, you will be ten deaths and no life. Xu Minghao explained faintly.
"Damn, it's so dangerous, let's go back!" Shrimp was ready to retreat at this time.
After Xu Minghao heard Xiami's words, he glanced behind him, and then turned around and continued walking.
"Can't go back, didn't you see the ink snake blocking our back?" Xu Minghao pointed behind his back.
After hearing this, Shrimp also turned his head and looked behind him, and the huge body of the ink snake stopped not far behind them.
"Damn, this broken snake is trying to force us to die in the inner layer of the Yongge Forest!" Shrimp scolded angrily.
Xu Minghao did not respond to Xiami's words, but sensed something, and suddenly squatted on the ground and pressed it on the ground with his right hand.
"Mingyue, what are you doing?" Xiami looked at Xu Minghao's behavior and asked.
"Shrimp, don't say it first!" Xu Minghao suddenly interrupted Xiami.
Xu Minghao squatted on the ground for more than ten seconds, thought seriously for a moment, and then quickly stood up.
"Mingyue, what's wrong?" Shrimp came over.
"Run, run. I'll explain to you later. Xu Minghao grabbed the shrimp and started running directly.
Shrimp didn't know the reason, so he could only follow Xu Minghao to the right front.
"Mingyue, is there something coming? Why are you in such a hurry? Shrimp asked as she ran.
"Look to your left!" Xu Minghao replied to the shrimp while panting.
After hearing Xu Minghao's words, Shrimp glanced at his left hand side, and was suddenly frightened by the scene over there.
I saw a pair of red eyes everywhere on the ground, on the trees, and a large number of unknown things crawling there, each of which was the size of an ordinary puppy.
"I'll go, Mingyue, how can there be so many of these things? What did they all come from? Shrimp asked in surprise.
"The social beasts unique to the inner layer of the Yongge Forest, the E-class fire gold ants, often come out at night to forage for food, and under normal circumstances, D-class alien beasts will turn around and run away when they see them." Xu Minghao explained the following in combination with the knowledge of the previous life.
"I'll go, you know that! So what do we do now? Shrimp looked at a large group of fire gold ants behind him.
"What can I do? Of course, it's just running, and if you can't run, you can only wait for death. Xu Minghao was also helpless.
In the face of the alien beasts in the inner layer of the Yongge Forest, there are not many good ways, and now the difference in strength is too big, so you can only run for your life, and if you can't escape, you can only wait for death.
The strength of each alien beast here in the inner layer is not comparable to the alien beasts in the outer layer, even the strength of the boss in the outer layer is about the same as the ordinary alien beasts here.
"Then I won't run away, it's better to just wait for death, go to the resurrection hall early, and don't have to suffer here." Shrimp is ready to give up on himself.
Xu Minghao looked at the shrimp that suddenly stopped, and he could understand it very well.
In the face of no hope of survival, it is better to die early, anyway, it is just a game, and it is better to start over.
If Xu Minghao didn't understand the situation in the inner layer here, he would definitely make the same choice as Xiami.
"Don't give up, I remember that the official map said that there will be a stream ahead, and the fire gold ants are afraid of water and dare not approach the stream." Xu Minghao suddenly pulled up the shrimp and continued to run.
After hearing this, Xiami suddenly came to motivation, since there is hope to live, who the wants to die!
"Mingyue, please say it earlier next time, I almost died!" The shrimp glanced at Xu Minghao with complaining eyes.
Card Wipe Card Rub!
The fire gold ants behind Xu Minghao and the two of them kept coming with the screeching sound of biting objects, and wherever the fire gold ants went, they didn't even let go of the trees.
The only thing that is fortunate is that compared to the ink snake, the speed of the fire gold ant will be slower, and Xu Minghao and they have a distance to escape.
But the pressure on Xu Minghao from a large group of fire gold ants is also far greater than that given by the ink snake, even if they take someone's nest.
"Mingyue, has the creek you said arrived? I'm running out of energy! Shrimp looked at the state of the character.
After Xu Minghao heard this, he also looked at his attribute state, and his energy was about to bottom out, and the essence power of the 0th order was too small.
"It's not far away, hurry up and give yourself a boost of nephrogen, don't fall behind!" Xu Minghao had already taken out the reagents from his backpack.
For players who venture out into the wild, a single renin is often a lifesaver.
Xu Minghao and the others injected a kidney line hormone into their bodies, and their energy suddenly began to recover slowly, and their speed of escape was a little faster.
The speed of the fire gold ant is not slow, and you are chasing me on both sides.
Suddenly, the fire gold ants suddenly stopped, and a large group of fire gold ants stopped into a boundary, just like Sun Dasheng drew a boundary on the ground.
Xu Minghao and Xiami watched the fire gold ant stop, and then sat on the ground, they no longer had the strength to stand up again.
Xu Minghao and Xiami's character attribute status also shows that their energy is overdrawn (whole body attribute –10%)
"Mingyue, why do you say that the fire gold ants dare not chase after them? Is there a very powerful beast on the other side of the creek? Shrimp watched as the fire ant turned around.
Xu Minghao thought about it, combined with the memory of the previous life, the name of this stream, he still didn't remember?
Xu Minghao couldn't remember the name of the creek for a while, so he didn't think about it anymore, but he still knew the danger of the creek.
"I don't even dare to go over to the fire gold ants, so I won't talk about the danger on the other side of the stream." Xu Minghao prompted.
"So what do we do now?" Shrimp looked around.
Xu Minghao also looked around, and could vaguely hear the sound of the stream flowing, which not only did not give them a sense of tranquility and safety.
On the contrary, against the backdrop of the surrounding dead silence, the sound of flowing water is even more eerie and terrifying, as if a great danger is brewing.
Xu Minghao swallowed his saliva and whispered: "Stay here first, and when the battle state is lifted, let's go offline first." ”
In the game "Survival", as long as you are chased by a strange beast or chased by a strange beast in the wild, you will enter a combat state, and if you are in a combat state, you cannot go offline.
"Well, then go offline first, it's too dangerous at night, there are high-level beasts everywhere." Shrimp also nodded in agreement.
They had come to the Yongge Forest to take an adventure, but the inner layer was no longer an adventure, it was no different from sending them to death.
The maintenance time of the battle state is 3 minutes, which is not too long, but for Xu Minghao and them now, it is like a year.
"Wait, Mingyue, do you smell anything?" Shrimp sniffed and asked.
When Xu Minghao heard the words of the shrimp, he also began to sniff seriously, there was really a special smell in the air.
"This smell is a bit like the smell of wood!" Shrimp thought for a moment.
Xu Minghao also reacted at this time, this special wood fragrance should not be wrong.
"Mingyue, this can't be the wood scent you were looking for before!" The shrimp also tasted it and turned his head to look at Xu Minghao.
"Well, it should be it, it looks like I can't get off the line yet." Xu Minghao said seriously.
Shrimp was about to say something, but Xu Minghao interrupted him.
"Shrimp, it's okay to say over there in the Ink Snake's lair, but now it's different here, I have a reason to have to stay, you don't, you go offline first." Xu Minghao said directly.
What Xi Mi just wanted to say, he closed his mouth again, and then looked at Xu Minghao deeply.
"What's the matter, who do you look down on! Can you save me desperately, and I don't even have the qualifications to stay and accompany you on your adventure? Shrimp also said with a firm face at this time.
Xu Minghao looked at the shrimp, and the shrimp also looked at Xu Minghao firmly.
"I won't say anything polite, if you hang back, at least someone will accompany you." Xu Minghao said with a smile.
", can't you say something nice?" Shrimp also smiled at this time.
Xu Minghao didn't say much, the towing wood was too important to him, and it was related to his task of reaching the first order quickly.
And the smell of wood is evident from the side of the creek.
Xu Minghao listened to the sound of the stream flowing, no matter how dangerous it was, he had to try it in order to tow the wood.
"Let's go, be careful, I don't know what is over there, but it's definitely far more dangerous than all the situations we've encountered before." Xu Minghao cautiously reminded.
"Alright, rambling! I was never afraid to come out and mix, but it was a big deal to walk through the resurrection hall. Shrimp said angrily.
Xu Minghao looked at the shrimp, or the biggest gain of his trip to the Yongge Forest was to make a friend.
