Chapter 336: Phantom Bell Realm: Forest Chaos
"Ladies and gentlemen...... Did you hear that? What's going on around you? Zhang Yuemei seems to be afraid of that kind of sound, because she also knows that there are many poisons that can kill people in this tropical rainforest-type environment, and poisonous snakes are one of the animals she fears the most.
The team members didn't speak, because they all looked around them several times and didn't find anything unusual, plus the crawling sound was so loud, they estimated that this would be a big snake, and it was very good at concealment, otherwise they wouldn't have found out what the source of this crawling sound was.
"It's okay, don't be afraid, the most dangerous place is the palace, now that we've all come out of the palace, there shouldn't be anything wrong." Gong Piqing said, and slowly came to Zhang Yuemei's side to protect her.
But the weird thing is that the creeping sound is in the grass around them for a while, and it seems to be on a big tree for a while, it seems to be a guy who is very good at "stuck vision", and every time he makes a sound, he will be in their blind spot, and sometimes he will even make a sound from many different positions.
The team members guessed that either some highly intelligent creatures were "playing hide and seek" with them, or a big snake like a titan python was observing them, and now the environment around them was very chaotic, and the place where the team was standing was almost the only open space in this area, and other places were full of dense grass, and they could see that some plants in the grass had sharp thorns, and the tips of those thorns were also brightly colored, if they were scratched by this plant, I don't think it's going to be any better.
However, for them at the moment, the biggest problem is why they suddenly appeared here, the big forest they are in now is very realistic whether it is from the perspective of sight, hearing or smell, it doesn't look like a fantasy, and they haven't walked through any portals or anything like that, so it can only mean that one of this forest and the palace must be fake, but no matter which place is fake, it means that their current situation is really very bad.
If the palace was fake, they had actually been roaming the forest all along, and they had never entered any palace, nor had they heard any harps, let alone the aggressive ironclad guards in the palace.
But if that were the case, what were the ironclad guards they had encountered before?
On the other hand, if the forest they are in is fake, then they should still be in the palace, and they may even be in the hall where a big bell is placed, and if they walk around the structure of the hall, they should soon find out if it is true or false!
The team members quickly came to a consensus on this point, since the squirming sound around them hadn't attacked them yet, they guessed that it might be a "non-hostile creature" or that they were just overthinking, and they began to imagine that they were still in the hall with the big bell, and they had just walked into the hall and were sent to the rainforest, so the real big bell should be not far in front of them!
However, they guessed that the direction of the bell was a bush with sharp spikes.
In fact, if this is really just an ordinary tropical rainforest, they will definitely have nothing to do, after all, the vast majority of the people in the team are the kind of special forces with "unique skills", Gong Piqing is the blessing of "adaptive evolution", even if they can't mix in the rainforest, then they will definitely not starve to death here, but this is the demon world after all, they are a group of illiterate people in the demon world who can't read big words, and even have to rely on the translation of battle clothes, Even if a certain plant in front of them was one of the most poisonous plants in the entire Demon Realm, even the lords of the Extremely Cold Country had to hide when they saw it, and they wouldn't recognize it.
"That's it, I'll go over and see the situation first, you wait where you are, if there is really an enemy around, the reason why it hasn't attacked until now may be because we are in a group, don't be too scattered, I'll go over and split that bush to see what's inside, you just cover in the back." As he spoke, one of the team members pulled out a machete similar to a "Nepalese Sabre" from his waist and walked towards the spiked bushes in front of him.
Although he said something like "you guys cover", the team members also nodded decently, if there was really any enemy behind the bushes in front of him, he was attacked by the enemy after he passed, and the other team members didn't have time to support at the first time, because now they only have a long-range weapon left in the whole team, and it is the dragon's spine heavy artillery, if the dragon's spine heavy cannon can be used to "cover", I am afraid that he can be directly covered into a mess of ashes.
The others watched as the team member walked lightly to the bushes, and there was a serpentine rustling sound behind the bushes just now, so the team members were very cautious, he first picked a little bush with the tip of his knife and made a little noise, trying to use this method to force out the enemy hiding behind, but the patience of the "enemy" seemed to be greater than he thought, so he decided to increase the range of movements, only to see him raise the machete in his hand and swing it fiercely towards the bushes in front of him.
His knife was specially equipped by the Mill Institute for the members of their action team, so there was obviously nothing to say about the quality and sharpness, but what the team members didn't expect was that after he swung the knife, it was actually deeply embedded in it as if it had been cut into a big tree, and the team member was stunned for a moment, and then pulled out another straight-edged weapon from the Extreme Cold Prison from his waist, and used that weapon to remove the plants around the machete.
I saw that the sharp machete was indeed sturdy at this time on a very large, similar to wood material, no one thought that such a large piece of wood would be hidden in such a seemingly fluffy bush, this piece of wood was like a tree lying across the ground, but this was really a big tree, and the diameter of the trunk alone was about to catch up with the height of the team member.
The team's eyes stretched out along the bushes into the distance, trying to guess the height of the tree in this way, but the open space was too small for them to see how big it was, but then they heard an exclamation from the team member.
I saw that after the team member pulled the knife from the piece of wood, a liquid similar to clear water actually flowed out of the wood, but this liquid was thicker than water and looked a little like blood, but how could such a thing flow out of the tree?
Before they could come to their senses, the next second, an unprecedented sound of rustling came from all directions, only to see that the cut bush seemed to suddenly come to life, the whole bush trembled as if it had been earthquaked, and those spiky plants scratched one terrifying mark after another on the ground, but what really frightened the team members was the big piece of wood - the big piece of wood was actually moving!
As the piece of wood that resembled the trunk of a giant tree slowly moved, the team members realized that the material of this thing could not be like the body of a behemoth in addition to resembling wood! That rough "bark", why can't it be the skin of some behemoth! Living in such a place, the skin must not be delicate!
And how can a normal plant shed so much viscous and transparent liquid with a single cut? It's clearly a creature, okay!
But then the question arises, if the wood is part of the body of a creature, how big is the creature?
The team member sensed that something was wrong and immediately retreated, all of them armed and ready to meet some oversized creature; The ground under their feet trembled as if it had been shaken, everything around them trembled with it, and all that was left in their ears was the sound of plants rubbing against each other, or between plants and the ground, and the scene was so chaotic that they couldn't tell for a moment whether the ground was moving with the plants or the plants moving with the ground.
Everybody's heart is afraid, and this fear is entirely out of fear of the "unknown", because they are still ignorant of their situation, and they don't even know whether they are really in a forest or in a palace; They were all mentally prepared for the appearance of a certain giant beast, but the more the giant beast did not appear, the deeper the fear in their hearts, as if the giant beast was fighting a psychological war with them.
Moreover, if there really is a giant beast around them, why doesn't it make a sound at all, it has just been slashed, even if it hurts or is angry, why don't you roar and let us know your general location!
Eventually, the psychological defenses of the team members slowly dissipated over time, and when the "enemy" actually attacked, it was completely beyond all of their predictions......
