Chapter 337: Night in the Forest

Arrange everything.

Cheng Shen packed all the things he could bring and what he needed to take away into his backpack.

Naturally, his focus was on the few weird and cursed creatures in the territory.

There were originally three of them, the medium left behind by the curse of the deep sea, the arm of the bloody corpse, and the black shadow.

The Black Shadow had previously been "sent" by him to the Blood Massacre.

Since then.

Its territory rating has been declining.

Until now, it has been completely squeezed out of the top twenty by the lords of the order camp.

I don't know if it's dead or still breathing.

Cheng Shen was deeply impressed by the ancestral artifact of the Blood Slaughter, it was the first and only time he had seen a non-cursed item that could fight against weirdness.

It's a pity that I couldn't grab it at that time.

Now there is no chance.

Melting down all the Star Gold Ornaments scavenged from the Temple of Sacrifice and the Storm Castle, Cheng Shen obtained one hundred and thirty-two kilograms of pure gold.

If used to mint gold coins.

These star gold will be able to smelt into a huge sum of 132,000 gold!

However, Cheng Shen obtained a large amount of gold coins through trade with Lai Yin, and the output of the thunder beast's lair could also bring him an income of 12,000 gold every day.

At the moment, the demand for gold is completely sufficient when the province is upgraded.

These gold materials,

Cheng Shen was all used to make sealing containers and tools.

From a ring box that can hold only one finger to a coffin that holds a corpse......

There is also a set of surgical instruments.

As for the armor.

Cheng Shen thought about it and found that it was not realistic.

Strange erosion is pervasive, but he wants to create a pure gold armor without leaving even the slightest gap.

Don't talk about breathing.

The biggest problem is how to move around.

And with his current background, the weirdness below A-level is not incomparable.

If you encounter an A grade or above......

Run if you can.

If he can't run, he might as well blow himself up, summon the Deep Sea Curse and Tenant Five, and let them touch each other to see who is harder......

Crash!

The pitch-black liquid in the barrel rippled.

In the water, a swollen female corpse sunk on the bottom of the sea was reflected, its back was facing up, its long hair was scattered, like a messy aquatic weed, and under Cheng Shen's gaze, the female corpse began to slowly float, as if it was about to crawl out of the water.

The cold and dead aura spread to all sides.

Cheng Shen didn't dare to procrastinate.

Holding an oil lamp in his hand.

Directly use a round container to fill it with a bucket, and then use his talent to modify the structure of the container, completely sealing the gaps around the edges.

The other side.

The bloody corpses sealed in the pure gold urn were much quieter.

Cheng Shen re-strengthened its container and put it in the backpack together, and the two hidden dangers that had been stored in the territory were finally eliminated.

And except for the weird.

It's a curse.

He carries six cursed items: a parchment scroll, a soul blade, an ancient oil lamp, a cursed book, a hedge of hatred, and a bronze armor.

He had basically figured out the effects of these cursed objects.

and regurgitation.

The only thing left was the bronze armor that had been removed from the corpse of the owner of Storm Castle, and the exact purpose of which he was still unsure.

And these things, except for him, it is difficult for others to ignore the side effects if they want to use them, and staying will increase the hidden dangers to the territory.

He was ready to take them with him.

As for leaving an inheritance, it is something that you will only do when you are sure that you will not be able to live. Cheng Shen is going to fight for that glimmer of life this time, whether it is useful or not, bring it all first, it is better than finding that there is no when you want to use it.

If it weren't for Zhang Yao's situation, it would also be very difficult.

Cheng Shen wanted to borrow all the cursed objects in his hand.

Especially Brother Pig's knife.

Pity.

Cheng Shen then ordered the well in the backyard to be filled.

If you think about it, it seems that his calamities all began after this broken well attracted the curse of the deep sea. Even if it doesn't have any moths in the future, with this matter in his heart, it is difficult for Cheng Shen to face it calmly.

Moreover, there is no shortage of this water source in the territory.

Turn around.

Cheng Shen came to the blacksmith's workshop.

The Sword of the Exiled Warlord, whom he commissioned Lawrence to reforge, has been completed.

【Sword of the Exiled Ruler (Seal)】

【Weapons】

【Type: Hands】

[Level: Perfect]

[Attack: 1]

[Attack Speed: 1]

[Sharp: 1]

[Feature 1: This weapon will devour the life of the wipe, continuously devouring 2000 HP per second, this effect cannot be eliminated in any way until the wielder dies completely, and it can also be effective in the backpack]

[Trait (2): Can kill exiled creatures with one hit]

[Durability: no wear, no drop]

[Requirements: Binding]

……

The bindings were still not lifted, and the weapon continued to suck his blood.

After the reforge is complete, the absorption effect is even more intensified.

The good news is that the other negative stats are gone, although that doesn't affect him much, and the weapon's stats are still rubbish.

"Kill exiled creatures with one blow......"

Cheng Shen read it unconsciously.

This attribute seems to be the only meaning of the existence of this long sword.

"The unbelievers trapped in that city see this sword as a way to escape...... There was certainly not only one way back, and Murdox was in charge of one of them, but it was clear that it had failed......"

Cheng Shen thoughtfully.

He doesn't believe it, and those unbelievers who are not afraid of heaven and earth only prepare such a way back.

Perhaps for them, this road is just the easiest to open.

Thinking about it, Cheng Shen took the scabbard made by Lawrence and included this pitch-black broad blade.

Then he went to the market and entered the gold shop to wait.

An hour......

Three hours......

Five hours......

Before he knew it, he waited until the sky was bright again.

"It doesn't look like it's coming back."

Cheng Shen thought.

No one came.

It was time for him to go.

The wind is cold.

It's cold to the bone.

The season is coming to an end, and the dense clouds that hang over the sky are a little whitish, as if a rare blizzard is brewing.

"Just send it here."

On the edge of the open-pit pit on the ruins of the deserted village, Cheng Shen said without looking back.

The only people who came to see them off were Arjeka and Vera.

But he knew that Claudia and Yusegra had more important things to do.

After they left, the task of protecting the territory was entrusted to them.

The burden is heavy.

The system will not stop the entire game of death just because it is not there, and there is no guarantee that the human heart, natural disasters, and monsters will come first in this already dangerous dark forest.

"Vera, you still have to protect your father, don't follow me on the risk, I promise you will definitely return."

He had expected it.

When the girl heard this, she slowly put down her secretly clenched hand and nodded with tears in her eyes.

"It's not a ...... of life and death"

Cheng Shen shook his head, if he didn't have confidence in surviving, he wouldn't have to expect to get out of that city alive.

Cheng Shen didn't let the two of them cross the boundaries of the deserted village.

Further on.

Any inch of land has the potential to step into the area of the Old City.

Let's talk about it.

And he departed.

The dense crown of branches swaying in the wind soon obscured his back.

Arjeka and Vera stood in place for a long time, until the former took the initiative to take Vera's hand, "Go back, when he comes back, he must have successfully stepped into that realm, and we can't stop in place." ”

"Hmmm......"

Vera's eyes were red.

……

Whew......

The only thing that can be found in the dense forest is the sound of the wind.

Cheng Shen moved silently, like a ghost, his energy control and emotional perception were fully opened, and the soul power released would grasp all the movements within two kilometers around him, and the hearts of countless beings beat between the palms of his hands.

It was a variety of monsters that roamed the woods.

Away from the territory.

Cheng Shen realized that there were not no wild animals to live in this forest.

In fact, the upheaval of the environment has indeed eliminated a large number of species that cannot adapt to survive, but can survive in such a strangely polluted environment, and most of them have become extremely powerful and difficult.

The starting point of his arrival is completely the safety zone deliberately demarcated by the system.

There isn't even a slightly stronger monster in the vicinity.

And now that he was out of the safe zone, the horrors of the forest itself were gradually showing to him.

"What a strong monster ......"

Cheng Shen examined the various energy fluctuations that were active in his field of vision.

If it is divided by the normal level of monsters, the monsters that appear in his field of vision right now start at the level of twenty.

And

Monsters of this level are considered to be at the bottom of the food chain......

There is no shortage of energy forms that are so molded that they can't see clearly, and they flash in Cheng Shen's perception.

However, that doesn't mean that the other party's strength is stronger than him, but purely because the level exceeds the upper limit of his perceptibility.

Cheng Shen is now level 27.

If the monster is ten levels higher, he will not be able to check the opponent's attributes.

However, not to mention the level 37 mobs, they are elites, bosses, and even lord-level creatures.

As long as he doesn't touch the peak life of the transcendent threshold, he has an extremely high chance of winning the battle. His bright red form and soul-level influence are all BUG-level abilities that can kill people in invisible, over-the-top challenges!

Cheng Shen didn't take the initiative to provoke those difficult monsters.

What can stand in front of him, he can easily solve it, just accumulate information and prepare for the future expansion of the territory......

Kill as you go along.

Cheng Shen tasted all the unfamiliar herbs he encountered by the way, enriching the content of pharmacology.

Time flies.

The Old City was also farther away from him than he thought.

Judging from the position seen by the Scout guards, he had judged that the Old City was only tens of thousands of meters away from him at most.

He was at full speed ahead and would have arrived in just two or three hours.

But in fact, he had already traveled for half a day, and the distance between him and the old city still seemed unreachable.

Some thoughts flashed in Cheng Shen's heart, but in the end he gave up and continued to chase in the direction of the sky.

He pinched the time.

Until seven o'clock.

Night is coming.

Only then did Cheng Shen stop.

He didn't want to risk rushing at night, so he returned the same way, and Cheng Shen recalled the scene he saw when he came, and found an abandoned lumber yard in the woods.

It's been deserted for a long time.

The stumps of the severed trees on the ground had grown trunks as thick as a man hugging each other.

The humble logging hut was already covered with dark blue vines.

Dilapidated.

Cheng Shen had passed by here before, but he didn't stop, and he didn't expect that the old city would be so far away from him.

Again.

It's also because there is a monster in this abandoned lumberyard that he doesn't want to provoke.

"Buzz ......"

The snoring sound resounded through the sky.

A brown hill stretched across the wide lumberyard, chest heaving, was a giant bear with two heads, one of which was asleep and the other was glaringly open.

Its broad palm clutched at a stack of tattered papers with an extremely slight movement.

The contrast between the two is as if an elephant is carefully trying to caress the ants off its body......

Cheng Shen believes that he is not mistaken.

It's reading a book.

A bear reading a book!

There is no doubt that this bear has been born with a high level of intelligence, and it may not be a wise decision to choose it as an opponent.

But Cheng Shen had no choice.

On the way, he had already studied how these forest creatures survived and survived the night.

The results show:

They don't have the ability to stand up to the horrors of the night.

The reason why they can survive in the forest is because there are special ruins in this forest.

These ruins are either left by humans, or some kind of strange natural landform.

But they all have the power to resist the night......

Cheng Shen was able to come to this conclusion because he found that there were a large number of footprints left by creatures in these sites.

The traces are all new.

And there is no water or other resources needed to sustain life in these sites, so why do they gather together inexplicably?

Simple inference.

Cheng Shen easily thought of this.

The lumber yard in front of him is the closest site to him at this moment, and the night is approaching, no matter how difficult this giant bear is, Cheng Shen doesn't want to look for other places.

Quack......

He deliberately stepped on a tree branch, making a noise that attracted the attention of the giant bear, and then calmly walked into the courtyard.

"Human ......"

The giant bear, which is as big as a hill, stops snoring.

It lifted half of its body, and the huge shadow covered Cheng Shen's entire person, but there was no hostility in the crimson eyes, and the giant bear stretched out a thick bear paw and shook towards Cheng Shen.

“?”

Cheng Shen sensed that it was asking for something from himself.

What do you mean?

Pay protection money?

The giant bear didn't attack him at the first time, but was so empathetic that he didn't expect it.

But what will it take?

Cheng Shen's eyes quickly took in the layout of the lumber yard.

When he saw the book, he wondered if it had been abandoned for many years, how could the paper book be preserved and still be able to withstand the giant bear's reading.

And at this moment, its familiar reaction has verified something.

I thought about it.

Cheng Shen took out a book from his backpack.

The History of Yellow Dye

……

The book is supposed to have been acquired when he bought it from survivors.

It's neither a magic theory book nor a skill book, but only a boring story.

Because it didn't take up much backpack space, Cheng Shen didn't even bother to throw it.

Right now

Just in handy.

Call.

Cheng Shen used a trace of soul power to send the book to the giant bear, and it was really interested, so he immediately threw away the tattered book in his hand and lay down on the ground to look at it.

“……”

That's it?

Cheng Shen found a broken tree stump in the lumberyard and sat down, his eyes straight.

Do you want to take this opportunity to sneak up and kill this bear......?
