Chapter 278: Threat
After getting off the cable car, Lilith and I came to a flat area.
Some distance ahead, there is Aikun Mountain, which gives me the feeling of a primeval forest, and from a distance, I can faintly hear the crowing of a rooster.
Lilith and I followed the path and officially entered the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, Lilith stopped suddenly, surprising to me.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
Lilith said, "Do you smell anything, it's a little strange!"
I sniffed my nose vigorously, but I didn't smell anything, so I looked at her very suspiciously.
"Goo~"
The air was quiet, and I could hear her stomach growling.
"It's barbecue!"
Lilith said excitedly, turning her head and walking to the left.
I followed him and wondered if this guy was hungry and hallucinating?
Then again, I'm a little hungry too.
Lilith strode across the grass, into the woods, and vanished.
I was worried about what danger she would encounter, so I quickly jumped in.
After walking a few steps, a fog suddenly rose around me, and I felt uncomfortable with the humid air, and after a while, my back was soaked with mist.
"Lilith, where did you go?"
This guy didn't know how to do it, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
I found no trace of her in the misty woods, even if I opened the Elven Eye.
As I walked, I found that I felt like I was ...... Lost.
Could it be that you ran into a ghost hitting the wall?
I walked for a few minutes and felt like the scene around me hadn't changed at all.
So I carved a mark into a palm tree and walked a little further ahead, intending to see if I was going in circles in circles.
To my surprise, I actually ran into a ghost hitting the wall, and the palm trees I had marked before appeared in front of me.
Uneasy in my heart, I looked around vigilantly, the eyes of the elves observing the wind and grass around me at all times.
"Bang!"
A gunshot rang out.
I looked up suddenly, and saw a large flock of birds in the distance.
"Oh no, Lilith is in danger!"
I was nervous for Lilith and wanted to find her as quickly as possible, so I ran in the direction where the gunshots were coming from.
I was so anxious that I walked without looking at my feet and accidentally stepped on the air.
I fell into a trap.
A sense of fall hit me, and I slammed down, seeing a sharp iron spike directly below.
I summoned the Moon Dragon Armor with my mind, and the moment I landed, the armor that suddenly appeared on my body was just enough to help me block this deadly iron thorn.
Having armor is reassuring, I'm covered in armor, and I'm not afraid of these iron thorns under my feet.
Turning my head to look, I found two stiff corpses, lying horizontally in the center.
I know that they fell from above, just like me, but they were not as lucky as I was, and they lost their lives.
Looking at the two corpses that were pierced through the stomach by iron thorns, I felt scared in my heart, thinking that if I hadn't summoned the Moon Dragon Battle Armor just now, I'm afraid I would have been like these two big brothers, and I would have returned to the West with hatred.
Looking up at the hole overhead, I wondered who had set this trap and what was his purpose.
Is it for hunting?
Maybe the gunfire just now was made by a nearby hunter while hunting.
No...... It shouldn't be like that.
Why?
Because there are already two corpses in this trap.
Just like I am now, stepping on the leaves laid on it, it falls.
Then the trap has been exposed, and there will be no more leaves on it to cover up.
If it was Orion, then they found two corpses in the trap, and they shouldn't have found a way to get the corpses up, so why should they put him
They stayed inside, and also re-laid the leaves to cover the traps?
This trap is not for hunting, but for killing!
I've got to find a way out of this hellish place now and find Lilith by the way.
With the help of the Warframe, my strength was boosted and I was able to jump out of the trap with ease.
When I came to the ground, I looked closely, and the Elven Eye found that there were several traps like the one just now, and there were many corpses in them.
Sure enough, these traps are all used to kill.
But who the hell is it that specializes in traps and killing others, why did he kill these people?
I didn't have time to think about it, so I bypassed the traps and continued in the direction where the gunshots were coming from.
After walking for a few minutes, the black smoke in mid-air caught my attention.
I ran over and looked through the grass to find a roast chicken on a campfire grill in front of me.
Walking cautiously, I saw that the roast chicken had been bitten a few times, and I couldn't help but be suspicious.
It shouldn't be Lilith who bites this roast chicken, so where is she now?
There are no footprints around, and there is no clue at all.
"Hehe, I've never seen such a stupid person, I actually rushed over to bite the roast chicken when I saw it, and the reaction was quite fast, dodging a shot from my sneak attack.
I thought I was going to be killed by her, but I didn't expect the *** in the roast chicken to suddenly take effect, and this guy fell like this!"
The sound coming from the grass caught my attention.
The next second, a teenager stepped out of the grass and appeared in front of me.
He looked a little embarrassed, with a disheveled head, Lilith on his shoulder, and a shotgun in the other.
"Bastard, what did you do to my Lilith!"
When I saw it clearly, I angrily urged the dark energy and fired a bullet of energy to attack the boy.
The boy reacted quickly, knowing that there was no way to avoid such a short distance, and directly blocked Lilith on his shoulder in front of him.
Seeing this, I felt bad, and quickly used my mind to manipulate the energy bomb and change direction.
"Bang!"
Under my influence, the energy bullet should have hit the boy, but now it hit a nearby tree, punching a large hole in the tree.
The boy immediately counterattacked me, holding the gun in one hand and firing bullets.
"Bang!"
The bullet struck me, blocked by the armor, and it rattled.
"Put her down!"
I rushed to the boy, only to find him pointing his gun at Lilith.
I immediately stopped, not daring to move.
"Don't come here, come here again, I'll shoot her in the head!"
Seeing that I didn't dare to pass, the corners of the boy's mouth hooked, and at the same time began to slowly retreat.
He glanced at the pierced tree next to him, and his eyes were quite jealous.
I scolded, "You let her go, or ...... I'll kill you!"
The boy smirked, "This is your woman, Dark Mage?
If you don't want her to get hurt, just back off, and I'll make sure she's safe!"
I hesitated for a moment, then chose to do as he was told.
Taking a few steps back, I was angry and helpless when I saw that the other person was about to disappear into the grass.
Fortunately, at the moment he disappeared, he chose to throw down the Lilith he was carrying and run away.
It's a wise choice.
I guess he knows who I am as a dark mage and is worried about my methods, so he doesn't want to cause trouble.
If he kills Lilith, then I promise to hunt him down to the ends of the earth!
