Chapter 13 Human Traces

 It has been three days since the activated remains appeared.

In the past few days, the bamboo forest has been in turmoil. From time to time, activated remains are fighting against the powerful creatures living in the bamboo forest.

Bell, who was walking all the way in the bamboo forest, also saw some large pits on the ground of the bamboo forest.

Those big pits are caused by extremely powerful activated remains that forcefully break through the bamboo root blockade.

There are not many activated remains that can break through the bamboo root blockade, but their existence still makes the bamboo forest uneasy. These skeletons that refuse to be silent are hostile to all living life.

For monsters like fire-chewing hyenas, they are not much of a threat, but for ordinary animals, the existence of these guys is a dimension-reducing blow.

They kill for the sake of killing, and everywhere they pass is filled with corpses stained with an ominous aura.

"If there were not all kinds of monsters hunting these activated remains, the ecosystem in the bamboo forest would sooner or later be collapsed by the undead."

Standing in front of a large pit dug by the activated remains, Bell sighed.

In fact, after Bell woke up from his dream, he was ready to continue digging holes underground to hunt for the animated remains trapped in bamboo roots.

But for some unknown reason, since Ziyue disappeared, those activated remains that had not broken through the bamboo root blockade fell silent and turned into ordinary remains.

Bell couldn't gain any experience after smashing several skeletons.

Only those activated remains that are still wandering in the bamboo forest and have successfully killed life can continue to exist.

Although he has become much stronger, Bell still has no intention of provoking those activated remains. After all, they are powerful remains that have broken through the bamboo root blockade. Bell really cannot defeat them.

At the same time, Bell also had his own goal. He wanted to get out of the bamboo forest as soon as possible and found a serious tree.

It has been so long since he unlocked the inventory, and Bell has never seen what wood looks like, let alone building a tool table.

"After walking for so many days, I still haven't seen the boundary of this bamboo forest. God knows how big this ghost place is."

Quickly climbing up a bamboo, Bell looked out and saw the endless green bamboo forest.

Feeling helpless, Bell was just about to slide down from the top of the bamboo when he saw a line of green smoke rising from the mountain in the distance.

"Wow...this smoke is a bit weird."

Bell stared at the blue smoke in the distance, his brain working rapidly, and a wisp of fire and hair appeared on his forehead. This was a sign that Bell's thinking was accelerating.

The faster Bell's thinking speed, the more intense this stupid hair will burn.

This green smoke floated up lightly, extremely strong, but the size of the smoke showed no signs of expanding or shrinking. It was different from the aftermath of battles with Warcraft that Bell had seen.

This green smoke is not consistent with what Bell saw and heard in the bamboo forest, but in Bell's memory of the earth, this thing is very familiar to him.

"Go and have a look. I hope my inference is correct."

Bell, whose wisdom has improved, has now entered a state where professional commentators must have the courage to make judgments and do what he says without hesitation.

He bounced back and forth in the bamboo forest, and the whole rat moved forward at an astonishing speed.

This is a newly developed way of traveling by Bell, which relies on his enhanced physical fitness and the use of tough bamboo bullets to shoot himself to achieve high-speed advancement.

It takes an hour to travel normally, but by using this ejection method, it only takes more than forty minutes to reach the destination.

Bell, who was advancing rapidly, was only fifteen meters away from reaching the place where the blue smoke rose.

It was also at this time that warning signs went off in Bell's heart.

"Whoops——"

A sound of breaking wind sounded beside Bell. Bell did not hesitate at all. The flames on his forehead instantly blazed, and the compressed earth was directly summoned to block it in front of him.

With his mind accelerating, Bell caught a glimpse of a fuzzy dot, which instantly rushed out from the gap between two bamboos, dragging the afterimage towards him.

"Pa!"

With a crisp sound, the compressed soil in front of Bell instantly shattered into slag, and a gravel hit Bell's head with huge force.

The moment he was hit, Bell didn't have time to feel any pain. He only felt that his eyes were black and he was almost losing control of his body.

He fell to the ground and rolled around twice before standing up quickly despite his dizziness, but his mind was still a mess and it was difficult to think.

"I...this, what is this..."

After being hit like this, the flame hair on Bell's forehead also changed from a burning state to sparks.

His mind was in a blur, but Bell's body did not dare to neglect at all. He quickly adjusted his state, and his instinct drove Bell's body to shrink back several steps and hide behind a bamboo.

It was also at this time that the sound of breaking wind came again. Just like before, a piece of gravel rushed forward quickly, passing through the obstacles of green bamboos, aiming directly at Bell's location.

"Bang——"

The bamboo in front of Bell was blasted on the spot, and the bottom section was broken, and then it broke all the way up, turning from a complete bamboo into a pile of broken bamboo pieces.

Watching all of this happening, Bell lay down on the spot, not daring to move, as his crotch was already wet.

The sound of broken bamboos was still loud and loud, but the surrounding forest was eerily silent.

Just fifteen meters diagonally in front of Bell, there was a middle-aged man with unshaven beard. He closed his eyes and raised his right hand forward as if flicking a coin.

There is no doubt that the two gravels shot out from the cracks in the bamboo forest came from his hands.

Here is a proposed camp that has been set up. A bonfire is rising in the middle of the camp, which is the source of the green smoke that Bell saw.

"Blind Boo, did you miss this time?"

Next to this stubbled man who shot stones, there was an old man who knocked on his pipe several times and joked like this.

The stubble-bearded man did not reply, but continued to maintain his posture.

But next to the old man, there was a child about ten years old, but he pursed his lips and replied loudly:

"Uncle Bu can't be defeated!"

The child's words were full of admiration for the stubbled man, but other people around him obviously understood the stubbled man better than the child.

Seeing that the bearded man was still maintaining his attacking posture, they all laughed, and a few older guys also teased the kid.

When people made such a fuss, the atmosphere in the camp suddenly became lively.

The child who was teased blushed and ran to the stubble man angrily, wanting to wait for the stubble man to tell the result himself.

In the expectant eyes of the child and the laughing voices of the crowd, the stubble man's expression remained unchanged. He just rubbed the back of the child's head and silently released his right hand. After all the gravels in his hand fell, he softly replied.
