Chapter 22: Hunting (for the alliance leader "Forever Promised by the Gods" broke out)
It's so quiet here, like being in a tomb. A thick atmosphere of death dominates this place. There are no birdsong, no insects, no trace of wild beasts, not even the rustling footsteps of the two people stepping on the pine needles on the ground.
The sound is also very clear!
What appears in front of you are the same pine trees and snow, and it seems that you can never see the end. In such a tense atmosphere, the physical exertion can be said to have increased exponentially, as if your chest is being pressed heavily by something invisible.
Yes, it didn't take long for the two of them to sit down and rest.
The reef was leaning against a pine tree and breathing heavily:
"Jesus, what the hell is this place! In a forest without even a single wild animal, look at these pine cones, they were eaten clean! But where are the birds and squirrels that ate these pine cones? Where are they?
?”
Fang Senyan put down Wuge Girl, sat down silently, pinched a ball of snow next to him and stuffed it into his mouth, then stared at the top of the tree for a while and said:
"Probably no wild beasts, no birds or squirrels."
Jiao Shi sat up straight and said in surprise:
"How is that possible? What were these pine nuts eaten by?"
Sheyan's eyes showed a thoughtful look. He was not in a hurry to answer Liao Shi's question. Instead, he picked up a dead branch from the ground and began to write and draw on the ground. Soon Liao Shi also saw that Fang Senyan was
Mapping the route they took, he immediately joined in.
Reef was older than Sheyan, and had much more experience in the wild. The two quickly determined their current location, and pessimistically discovered that they were actually not too far away from the orc camp. If it was a straight line,
As for the distance, it's only about twenty kilometers at most.
The two looked at each other, smiled bitterly, and shook their heads. But Sheyan's eyes quickly turned firm, and there was a ferocity that made Liao Shi feel very familiar. Whenever Sheyan faced huge danger, he would show his wild beast-like madness.
and come out strong.
"Let's go." Sheyan stood up, covered his chest and coughed twice. Although the chest injury hit by the tentacle monster had healed, the abnormal status curse attached to it was as vicious as a tarsal maggot.
The ghost lingers, almost two hours have passed now, and there is no sign of fading away.
Fortunately, at this moment, Wuge, who was leaning on his shoulder, barely opened her eyes, and pressed her palms on his chest with a pale face. Dots of green light dispersed, and wisps of black gas could be seen flying out.
, the gas formed the shapes of centipedes, scorpions and other poisonous insects in the air, which were lifelike, and then completely dissipated into the air.
Fang Senyan felt a sense of coolness pouring into his whole body, as if his whole body and internal organs had been washed by the clear and clean spring water. He suddenly felt refreshed, and a hazy green light appeared faintly on the surface of his body.
And the nightmare mark also sent a reminder:
"You have received the blessing of the Dawn Elf: all negative conditions on you are removed, all your resistances are increased by 15%, and all beneficial abilities related to probability are increased by 5% (including but not limited to hit rate, critical hit rate, synthesis
probability of success, etc.).”
After casting the blessing of the dawn elf, the elf girl fell into a semi-conscious state again. However, she did not seem to be seriously injured. Not only was the fresh body fragrance still there, but also her hair color and skin surface.
The luster presents a strong feeling of vitality, just like the new green buds on the branches in spring.
There is no doubt that her situation at this time can only be explained by one explanation, that is, she is in the advanced stage of transformation that requires rest and accumulation. Only when she fully recovers can she be called a true Dawn Elf---
--The leader who can lead the elves in Middle-earth back to the Kingdom of God!
*********************
About half an hour later, the three surviving orcs slowly came from a distance. The leader of the orcs flapped his nose constantly, then looked at the pine tree next to him and said coldly:
"They stayed here."
The strong orc next to him had a rather ugly face and said in a hoarse voice:
"It's past noon now. If we pursue them further, even if we return in time, we probably won't be able to avoid that... thing!"
The leader of the strong orcs suddenly turned around. His eyes were red, full of ferocious warning. You could clearly see that there was a green sarcoma growing in his throat. There were dense blood vessels on the sarcoma, and they were still beating. It felt like
It seems to be in sync with the beating of the heart.
This sarcoma is an additional biotechnology developed by Saruman. It is still in the experimental stage and is only used on some powerful orcs with greater utilization value. This sarcoma is called a heterogeneous black body tumor. The process of its creation is quite strange.
Evil was discovered when Saruman was studying tentacle monsters.
Because the tentacle monster's mouth is very underdeveloped, it can only chew food and it is difficult to digest it if swallowed. Therefore, there is always a symbiotic worm in their stomach. This worm is good at secreting powerful digestive juices and can
Effectively decomposes food, so if there is no such parasite, the tentacle monster will often die due to indigestion.
However, anything in the world is too much. Once the tentacle monster has a fixed and abundant food source, the worm will certainly not understand the importance of family planning/the skin will not be left and the hair will be attached, so it will also reproduce in large numbers.
, the ultimate result is that the tentacle monster's digestive system will be full and burst and die. Therefore, when the tentacle monster understands this, dieting and regular and limited deworming become the two major events in their lives.
Some of these killed and expelled worms were turned into a strange parasite by Saruman using his unique mixing method. If an orc with sufficient value appears, the tentacle monster will cut its throat.
Make a small opening and bury this thing under the skin. After a period of time, heterogeneous black body tumors will appear.
The strong orc who was implanted with this "Xenobiotic Black Body Tumor" is equivalent to having an extra heart, and both his strength and survivability will be greatly increased. However, because the worms used for refining once survived in the body of the tentacle monster.
For a period of time, most of the orc's actions will be sensed by the tumor-seeding tentacle monster. Once there is betrayal, Saruman's clone can use the corresponding tentacle monster to kill the orc remotely at any time.
Facing the fierce orc leader's eyes, the questioning orc immediately took a step back, not daring to say anything. Just as Saruman's clone has absolute control over the life and death of the orc leader, the orc leader has absolute control over ordinary people.
The powerful orcs can also form absolute suppression!
"If you chase, you may not die, if you don't chase, you will die!"
The hoarse voice of the strong orc leader has made the powerful relationship very obvious. Now if you chase the enemies and bring them back, there is still a chance of survival. If you don't chase them, the tentacle monster will have a clear understanding of everything that happens here, even if you successfully exit.
This is a dangerous place, but you can still die!
The three orcs remained silent and did not dare to say anything more. They followed the traces left by Sheyan and the others and chased them. Their figures gradually disappeared in the pine forest, and the dead pine forest was restored again.
That mysterious and quiet atmosphere, as if anything would be swallowed up and flattened in it.
***************
It was already about three o'clock in the afternoon. After being filtered by the snow, wind and clouds in the sky, the sunlight shone dimly and reluctantly, and even looked a little pale. However, at least it also dispersed the thick fog in the valley.
At this time, under the sunlight, you can vaguely see a faint mist steaming above the pine forest. If someone looks at it from a distance, even the line of sight will be vaguely distorted, as if there is a stove below.
generally.
If this situation occurs naturally, it means that there is something precious beneath the ground, most likely jade ore.
There are two poems called: "The moon in the sea has tears in its pearls, and the warm sun in Lantian creates smoke in the jade." The first sentence describes the pearl, and the latter sentence alludes to the fact that when the sun shines, the precious purple jade will rise and appear looming.
of green smoke.
There is also an idiom called: Pearls of Light, which means that the finest pearls will automatically emit brilliance, while treasures can release unique fog. But at this time, looking at the strange fog hanging over the pine forest, I still feel inexplicable.
There was an ominous sign.
Fang Senyan and Jiao Shi continued to move forward. At this time, the two knew to save energy as much as possible, so they also reduced the frequency of talking. As they continued to move forward, they found that the pine forest in front of them had become sparse, and the bark of the pine forest had also become sparse.
It became dry and cracked, and the pine needles also died.
Seeing this situation, Sheyan's face became even more ugly. He couldn't help but turn his head and look behind him. There was an uncontrollable urge to turn around and go back immediately. It should be because of the warning, but this kind of
The impulse was immediately killed by his reason.
Fang Senyan looked up at the sky. Because he was "in this mountain", he didn't notice the faint layer of fog covering the pine forest. He just felt that the sun's rays were a bit too pale. Between him and Liao Shi's jungle concept
Inside, as long as the sun is still there, you will be relatively safe.
"Huh..." Reef took a long breath: "Let's take a rest now. Why do these damn rules limit the storage space of nightmare marks? You can't even find a drink of water if you want to.
I guess if I continue to move forward at full speed, my health will gradually decrease."
