After leaving the village, we entered the Fertile Plain to the north. At the end of the plain was the continuous Mogu Mountains. Bran had to first cross this plain, and then climb over the Mogu Mountains before he could enter the trial area. That mountain range

It is like a barrier that separates the wilderness from civilization.

This plain is dotted with large and small settlements. The number of people living in northern settlements has always been small, ranging from dozens of people to thousands. Most of them are maintained at around a few hundred people. No matter how big they are, they will usually be carried out.

Natural splitting and migration. If too many people gather in a limited area, it will be a disaster for the Northlanders. Fortunately, the Northland is vast enough, and the current Northlanders only occupy a corner. As long as they hold on to the Northland

portal, then sufficient space for survival and development can be guaranteed.

…

Bran stumbled forward, and it was difficult for his current small body to walk through the grass. The black cat Huahua was in his arms as always, making his situation even more difficult. Habits are always scary, even in this difficult situation.

In this situation, the black cat Huahua still habitually rests in Bran's arms, and Bran habitually holds Huahua. There is no feeling that there is anything wrong between the two parties. It seems that this is the only way to be natural.

In the current environment, Bran found that even if he could detect various crises in advance, it would be difficult to effectively avoid them. Mainly because of his current small body, speed and endurance, which prevented him from making the best response. This made Bran even more frustrated.

What is annoying is that natural evolution can always find a better way out. In this environment, he unexpectedly cannot sense the hidden predators in advance. They are perfectly integrated with the environment. Usually when Bran discovers the other party, the other party will

It has also entered the effective attack distance.

Bran was careless. There was no comparison between the castle and the pure natural environment. This also put him in a real crisis. A group of jackals surrounded him. These disgusting-looking guys were now drooling.

They kept circling around him. Huahua launched several attacks and was called back by Bran. Although the necks of these guys were scratched to pieces, the blood vessels under the necks were not damaged. The natural evolution continued again.

Taught Bran an impressive lesson.

Humans make up for their own shortcomings through wisdom and tools, while animals in nature deal with various injuries by directly evolving their bodies. Huahua's effective attacks on humans become no longer so deadly when they are replaced by animals. If

Bran and Huahua can easily deal with just one or two jackals. But when faced with a group and the influence of the surrounding environment, Bran finds that he can't do anything at all. The jackals are burrowing in the grass.

He drilled back and forth, but he couldn't leave his hand with the knife. Once he left his hand, the chain controlling the dagger would be entangled in the grass path. If the dagger could not be retrieved, it would only put him in a greater crisis.

A jackal was too careless and wanted to distract Bran's attention by probing from behind. A flash of knife passed through its neck. This time it was not as lucky as its previous companion. Its throat was cut open and it jumped away a few times.

After a few steps, it fell to the ground and began the last struggle of its life.

Bran's weapons also showed flaws at this time. If he had a spear or a long knife, he would not be in such a mess. He habitually carries all the bits and pieces with him to deal with humans.

His thoughts entered here, and now he must pay the price for his carelessness.

Bran could only walk slowly and staggeringly, trying to escape from this pasture. As long as there was an open area of ​​several meters, he could easily kill or drive away these hateful guys. But no, even if he put his senses away

To the extreme, there is still nothing in his perception.

Now we can only compete in willpower, competing to see who can't hold on first. Bran walked forward firmly, and the jackals patiently circled around him.

Another flash of sword light flashed, and the third guy's throat was cut.

These guys are becoming more and more cautious. They carefully test Bran's attack range and keep attacking Bran. The dense grass blocks Bran's sight, making him who is accustomed to vision feel very uncomfortable. Although the magic power

The network can still feed back various information, especially within the direct coverage of the magic network. This kind of feedback is more accurate and clear, but he is not used to it, which makes his movements a little hesitant. At this time, the black cat Huahua has jumped to the ground.

, walking beside him step by step.

A jackal tried to attack Huahua, but Huahua found the opportunity, hugged her neck, and bit her throat tightly. Then Bran stayed beside Huahua, watching the jackal gradually stop struggling.

He could hear the barking and commotion of jackals around him, but there was no sign of fear or retreat.

Come here first, Bran stopped moving forward. The smell of blood will attract various predators, and the chaotic scene may provide him with a chance to leave. But before that, treat part of this jackal as

food.

Bran cut open the jackal's back and removed the two pieces of meat attached to the vertebrae. At this time, the three guys who came around behind Bran thought they had caught the opportunity. They extended their claws towards Bran's back, and the cloth

Lan's sword light unfolded again, two guys with broken claws ran away whining, and a guy with a severed neck became a new snack.

Now Bran is sitting in front of the carcasses of two jackals, holding a piece of meat in his hand and slowly tearing it apart one by one, while Huahua is also chewing on the other piece of meat. The jackals around him are burrowing around in the grass.

They make rustling sounds and howls to summon their own kind.

Bran doesn't understand. Now is not the season for lack of food. These jackals should also have good intelligence, why they are entangled with him. Especially after he killed and wounded several of them, they should have given up.

This is not the reaction of a group of elite predators.

I must have overlooked something to cause such a result, but what was it that I ignored?

Originally, Bran hoped that there would be a few white wolves among the beasts attracted by the blood, so he could follow the white wolves away. But with more and more rustling sounds in the grass, Bran no longer had such extravagant hopes.

.

The dragon gold that was assimilated by Bran slowly opened up, covering the surface of his and Huahua's bodies like skin. This time I am afraid it is a head-on battle, no longer the previous test. But why is this? Head-to-head confrontation with Bran is
Chapter completed!
