In the Emerald Forest, 1.2 miles away from the edge, two players, one tall and one short, who want to enter the forest are walking in the woods.
"Is there really a hot spring in that place?" the short and thin guy asked.
"Of course, why did I lie to you?" Because of his companion's suspicion, the man who answered was slightly unhappy: "Actually, I discovered that place early in the morning, but there were many monkeys guarding there..."
"A few monkeys scare you?" the person who started talking asked again.
"How many are there? Those are groups of monkeys!" The man became even more angry: "Where do you think this is? This is the Emerald Forest! There are all kinds of species in the Emerald Forest, and not to mention monkeys, even if they are If a little white rabbit is placed in front of you, you have to consider whether it will be killed by one move..."
"I don't believe it. Those ten thousand monkeys are standing there, and you have the courage to rush up... By the way, do you still want me to take you there? If you want to go, there won't be so many problems!"
Although the other person was a little embarrassed when he asked, the short and thin man felt a lot more relieved. But he thought for a while, and then decided to inquire from another angle: "There are a lot of sunset flowers nearby, right?"
"Of course, according to my observation, sunset flowers like to grow in such warm and humid places." Perhaps after asking about his strengths, the man before became proud again: "And now that it's getting warmer, I guess those monkeys will Run back to the deep forest to the south, there should be no monsters nearby that can threaten us..."
"It's better to be cautious. I heard that a few days ago, a team encountered a wild boar on the outskirts of the forest and was chased all the way. In the end, the man was chased to the edge of the forest, and he still had to die." He sighed. "The post on the forum also expressed tears. The listener was sad and the listener shed tears..."
"Ah, I've heard about that too." The man from before said: "I heard that there were three people in the team wearing armor, and one of them had an iron shield. He was already very powerful here in Novice Village. I don't know if he has ever been there. Where did you get it..." He muttered for a while, then frowned: "But it is indeed rare to encounter a monster like a wild boar at the edge of the forest. I have never heard of it before. Yes, I only know that teams from big guilds usually go to the depths to hunt these creatures, and they still spend a lot of effort and time..."
"So, there's no need to worry." The companion said: "If we can meet each other, it will probably be a stroke of luck... Hey, did you hear the sound?"
When he said this, the other person had actually noticed something was wrong, because the other person had stopped and looked in a direction ahead with his eyes wide open.
"What's wrong..." He also looked in that direction, and then saw a running figure, passing through the layers of trees, coming here.
The man seemed to be holding something in his arms. When he came closer, the two of them saw that there was also a person in his arms, and that person was still struggling.
robbery? Kidnapping? Performance Art?
Doubts did not linger in their minds for long before they were frightened away by the approaching rumbling sound.
The two of them watched dumbfounded as the running figure ran past not far to their left, and then a huge wild boar roared and followed behind. The wild boar stared straight ahead with its red eyes, not even looking at the two passers-by.
As if a storm was passing by, several voices ran away in the direction they came from. In the mess on the ground, the two people looked at each other in confusion. After a long while, the short and thin man said, "Would you like to buy lottery tickets?"
"Uh, actually I want to ask...do you want to go to the hot springs..."
"Yes, do we still want to move forward..."
The fallen leaves that had just been blown up by the storm slowly flew past them, most of them fell down again, and a small part floated into the distance, chasing the initiator of the incident.
*********************
"Ouch... you, you bastard!"
Being casually held in the arms of a man is naturally unacceptable to a girl, but as a young girl in the new century, female restraint is naturally something that can be discarded in times of crisis. Therefore, the curse in the girl's mouth was not due to Duan Qing's hooligan behavior.
At this moment, she was thrown to the ground again.
From Mengzhu's point of view, with Duan Qing's strength as a novice, it was almost impossible to escape from the pursuit of the giant pig while holding a person. Mengzhu's level and attributes were already stronger than Duan Qing's, and he had not survived a few rounds at the hands of the wild boar just now. What's more, Duan Qing was still holding someone, so his physical strength consumption was much faster than usual, let alone fighting. Something happened.
So in order to escape along the way, Duan Qing tried his best. He would often put Mengzhu down, run back to lure the wild boar to entangle with him for a while, and then come back unscathed amidst the wild boar's roar, pick up Mengzhu's soft body and continue his desperate journey. Sometimes Duan Qing doesn't have time to carry out the first step of this cycle, so he has no choice but to throw Mengzhu out directly like he is doing now.
Although some skill has been used, it must be unbearable for a seriously injured person with severe pain all over his body to be thrown out like this. The first time he was thrown out, Mengzhu was more shocked than scared, but later it turned into anger. In the painful struggle and curse on Duan Qing, she couldn't even notice how the newcomer managed to escape death several times before.
This time, of course, she wouldn't notice. In fact, she was almost passed out from the pain.
Throwing, turning, charging forward, and then suddenly stopping - in front of the brake, the charging figure of the wild boar also suddenly enlarged!
"A shocking charge..."
Duan Qing used his remaining strength to jump to the right. The wild boar's huge body stopped where he had just stood, and the air flow blew his body away.
He rolled over and then stood up again. Duan Qing walked slowly to the right, slowly circling the wild boar as the center of the circle, while watching the wild boar twist its body. When the wild boar's huge head is about to face him, he continues to rotate faster.
"Don't turn behind it..."
Duan Qing thought silently in his mind, constantly reminding himself, and at the same time using the corner of his eye to look at his surroundings, looking for opportunities to escape again.
Anything is fine, trees, boulders, preferably a big pool or something...
Tree roots, vines, shrubs, ravines... Along the way, I have tried my best to get rid of this wild boar with increasingly red eyes, through various obstacles. The last time he escaped, he used a seemingly hard boulder. He tried his best to lure the wild boar into hitting the blue stone, thinking that he could make the wild boar faint for a while, but the scene of the flying gravel was simply It was so beautiful that his face twitched a little when he thought about it now.
Could it be that the big tree that he hit when he attacked Mengzhu was an "iron tree"...
He maliciously guessed, and at the same time, he rolled his eyes and slowly led to the place he chose. There was a tree that had fallen down for unknown reasons. The branches on the tree had withered, and it seemed that it had been lying there for a while.
He jumped all the way, left and right, without getting very far away from the wild boar. The wild boar kept tugging back and forth with its long tusks, looking like it was dancing with Duan Qing.
The two figures jumped back and forth like this, slowly approaching the broken tree. Duan Qing, who approached first, saw the appearance behind Broken Wood. After being slightly startled, a smirk appeared on his face.
Duan Qing jumped up and strode to the side of the broken log. He put some distance away from the unprepared wild boar, then flipped over and reached the other side of the broken log. Turning around and standing still, he grabbed a branch and held it across his chest, facing the wild boar over there: "I'm going to defend myself, come and hit me..."
The idiot jumped up as expected.
Unlike Mengzhu's hurried situation at that time, Duan Qing even had a very short time to recover a little bit of physical strength, so he jumped forward in the direction of the broken wood and fell to the ground.
The wild boar's fat body flew across the sky, over the tree trunks, over Duan Qing's head, and then... smashed straight into a pit behind.
"The intelligence is too...low..."
The pit seems to be a natural product. If you look carefully, you will find some unknown plants and mushrooms growing in it. It seems that it has been there for some time. The wild boar, which obviously did not expect the pit behind it, had some deformation in its landing posture, and there was a trace of panic in its staring red eyes.
"Bang!"
The sound of shoveling the ground made people's teeth sore. Duan Qing did not look back to appreciate the tragic scene of the wild boar's "hard landing". He slowly trotted back and found the girl who had been thrown away by him before and was still lying on the ground struggling slightly. He hugged her. Get up and continue running out of the forest. As expected, Mengzhu's complaints came again.
"Don't you know what it means to cherish a woman's beauty? It hurts! Please don't throw me to the ground like that next time, okay? No, it's better not to have another time..."
She didn't know whether it was because she felt it was useless or because of her injuries. Mengzhu's voice gradually became softer, but she also understood in her heart that the current situation was already the best result of the man in front of her after his efforts. After making sure that he was out of danger, In the past, this kind of deal-making may have to be repeated several times, which means that I may be thrown several times...
The sound of earthquakes and angry howls came again, proving that the wild boar obviously hadn't given up yet.
"Huh, huh, it really won't give up..." Duan Qing was panting after a long period of tense dealings: "The last time I saw a person being chased to the edge of the forest, he was still killed. Lost......"
Thinking of the scene when he first entered the world, Duan Qing's pace quickened a bit. The light in front suddenly brightened, and one could already see the green grassland on the outskirts of the forest from between the sparse trees.
Victory was right in front of him, and the howling behind him suddenly amplified.
A huge whistling sound came from behind, and Duan Qing could feel the wild boar charging again without looking back. But it was different from what he had observed before. The sudden charge accelerated much farther than before!
For some reason, Duan Qing's mind flashed over the player who flew out of the woods when he first entered the game. As if he thought of something for a moment, he stamped his feet suddenly, approached the tree nearest to him, and then threw the girl out again regardless of her screams.
Since he had been held in his arms, Mengzhu didn't know what Duan Qing had felt in those few seconds. It wasn't until she was thrown out and a brown shadow passed by her eyes that she realized that she had flown past the edge of the tree trunk.
Do you really want to throw me to death... The girl thought bitterly again, and then prepared to bear the pain of landing again. However, this time, some stronger stimulation was more sudden than the pain of landing. passed to her mind.
Earth-shaking howls, huge crashes, and crackling sounds of trees breaking came at the same time. The tree that just passed by her broke in response - the trees on the edge of the forest seemed to be darker than those in the deep forest. The ones at the top were much thinner, so the tree was broken by the huge force without any suspense. The girl endured the severe pain and struggled to move her body. Finally, she did not become the first player in the free world to be killed by a falling tree.
Not far behind, the huge head shook twice, as if trying to get rid of the dizziness caused by the impact just now. Then, those red, terrifying eyes slowly focused on the purple figure lying on the ground, slowly struggling to escape.
This prey looks familiar...
Probably thinking that this kind of movement could not hide the wild boar's ears and eyes, Mengzhu gave up her struggle. She turned over with all her strength, gritted her teeth and looked up to the sky, looking at the wild boar that was close at hand and almost as long as her body. Although Fang looked like he was sacrificing himself generously, his scream was still trembling: "That bastard uncle! How dare you use me as bait! I will remember you! If you run away like that, I will... .....”
The giant beast's breath sprayed on Mengzhu's face, and in conjunction with the saliva flowing from its mouth, its ferocious head suppressed her words. The wild boar stared at the prey near its mouth with red eyes, and then... suddenly nodded.
A stone bounced off its head, flew past Mengzhu's eyes, and then rolled back.
"Hey, I've been saving you..." Duan Qingyi retorted righteously as he climbed up from the ground not far away. He panted slightly, but his hand did not stop. He took out another piece of gravel that he had grabbed before, and threw it towards the wild boar over there. With a "bang" sound, the wild boar's head paused slightly again.
"Although I don't know if you can understand it, I think it is very appropriate in this situation..." Duan Qing calmed down his breathing, and then took a deep breath.
"Sun thief!" he shouted.
In Mengzhu's shocked eyes, the wild boar finally turned his head slowly and focused on Duan Qing, his red eyes gradually turning blood red.
"Tsk, tsk, it looks a bit... not good..." Duan Qing sighed for a while, then turned around and ran away.
In the dust where the wild boar ran away, Mengzhu's tense body finally relaxed. Although he had shown that he was not afraid of anything that day, the fear in his heart still lingered when he thought that he was going to die. She spread her arms, straightened her body, took two heavy breaths, and then murmured: "It's really thrilling... But why are you running into the woods..."
She turned her head and looked in the direction of the dust: "Why..."
******************
Of course there was a reason why Duan Qing ran into the woods.
Although they have reached the edge of the woods, there is still some distance there after all, and the closer they are to the edge, the fewer the trees become. When the beast makes another collision like that, it will probably be impossible to escape.
And after such a long period of movement, there was probably no one in the woods.
He ran in a certain direction, looking for an excellent terrain that he had noticed before. He paid attention to the movements of the wild boar and kept a suitable distance. The wild boar rushed towards him, and he dodged as usual, and then found a tree to tangle with. Although the wild boar was strong, it only knew so many moves. He thought he knew the conditions for launching and the warning actions before launching. I almost understand it. At best, it is just a creature with well-developed limbs and a simple mind.
Of course, the previous charge needs to be re-understood.
All in all, this monster is still within the normal category, so just use normal methods to deal with it... As he thought, in the field of vision ahead, two large trees standing very close to each other stood there. There is a gap nearly two meters wide in the middle.
"It's so narrow, it should be able to get stuck..." Duan Qing stopped holding one of the trees, letting his strength recover a little, and waiting for the stupid pig. When the wild boar rushed out from behind a certain tree, he suddenly ran towards the gap.
The distance should be right, okay, do you want to charge or jump...
Duan Qing was thinking this when a whistling sound sounded from behind.
"Little stupid pig, come to the bowl quickly..." He whispered to himself, then gritted his teeth and quickly passed through the two trees. Due to the sudden explosion, Duan Qing's physical strength was exhausted in an instant. He used the last bit of strength to fall forward and rolled several times with the help of inertia before stopping.
The loud noise of the collision and the howling of the wild boar came at the same time. Duan Qing looked back and saw that the wild boar's bucket-like body, thick in the middle and thin at the ends, was stuck there as expected. He took a deep breath and then laughed loudly: "Huhahahaha, poor General Pig, do you think I am one of those idiots who were slaughtered by you..."
The laughter stopped abruptly.
In Duan Qing's stunned expression, the pig general pawed hard with his two front hooves, and with a groan, he pulled himself out of the gap in the trees with a "pop".
The wild boar shook its fat body, and then jumped back and forth a few times as if it was adapting to exercise. It looked at Duan Qing's eyes with crooked eyes, revealing a little contempt - judging from its skillful movements, this was probably not its first time. Did it once.
"He is indeed a monster, and he actually has intelligence..." Duan Qing's mouth was so shocked that he didn't close his mouth for a long time: "And he can also mock..."
The pig general shook his body, then jumped a few times and walked around two big trees. With interested eyes, it stared at the prey that had been teasing it for a long time and slowly stood up from the ground. It snorted twice, its fangs swayed, and its eyes were raised, with a sense of "If you have the guts, just keep running." the meaning of.
Duan Qing backed away slowly, staring at the wild boar that was getting closer: "I tell you, don't mess with me..."
The wild boar continues to approach.
"If you force me again, I'll call someone..."
The boar snorted.
"Don't go too far...well, you win." He kept his distance and took out his short sword.
His eyes slowly closed and his body gradually relaxed. Duan Qing took a breath and then opened his eyes. His eyes suddenly became fierce: "Even a pig looks down on me. How can I bear this... Do you think I came here just to trick you?"
Duan Qing stood with his sword horizontally, then swung it to the right. The wild boar on the opposite side lowered its head and pointed its tusks forward.
"I ran here...because no one can see..."
He charged forward with his sword in hand!
According to its own habits, the wild boar changed its moves and used a forward arch. Duan Qing turned sideways slightly, then turned around, and its fangs scratched every inch of his back. Duan Qing exerted force with his right foot, made a mistake in his steps, and dodged forward to the left. His body rotated in a circle at the same time, and the dagger in his hand used the torque from his waist to slash down.
Circle dance!
The arc flashed through the air, and the sword blade left a deep...blood mark on the rough skin of the boar's right side.
"Holy shit..." Duan Qing cursed in his heart, before the wild boar had time to use its sweep, he jumped a few times to distance himself.
If there were professional players standing here at this time, they would definitely applaud the slash just now, but if the blacksmith uncle were standing here, he would probably just shake his head and sigh that the slash was so good.
"The skin is really thick..." Duan Qing whispered. After adapting to the game in the past few days, he felt that his control over this body had reached a satisfactory level. The round dance slash just now should also be seventy or eighty percent powerful. But judging from the results, the gap in absolute attributes cannot be made up by technology...
However, after so many years of hard work, Duan Qing no longer has the thought of giving up easily. When the wild boar took a slight breath, he rushed forward again. At the same time, because of his previous understanding of the wild boar's defense, he changed his tactics and tried to find new opportunities.
"If this game is real enough, of course you also have weaknesses..." After dodging continuously, he once again formed a close relationship with the wild boar. The wild boar then gave up its howling and tilted its head towards him. .
A strange figure suddenly flashed past, Duan Qing stepped forward, accelerated suddenly, turned behind the wild boar a few times, then held his sword and concentrated on the spot, and stabbed the wild boar with his sword when it had no reaction.
Continuous thrusts!
The tip of the sword penetrated a little, and then the wild boar turned around, almost sending the weapon flying away.
"It's not the back..." Duan Qing said expressionlessly: "Then just bleed..."
After a few exchanges of moves, Duan Qing circled the wild boar again. This time he deliberately maintained a high-speed rhythm, and from time to time he used his sword to chop the wild boar casually. No matter how nimble the wild boar is, it is impossible for it to cope with such agility. It can even turn half a beat too slow, let alone avoid Duan Qing's extremely fast attack. For a time, the wild boar's back, front legs, hind legs, and even its belly were attacked in many places. Although none of the injuries were fatal, blood was still splattered in some places.
Perhaps due to being annoyed by the painless attack, or perhaps feeling the danger of death instinctively, the wild boar's eyes finally turned completely blood red. It stood up suddenly, raised its two front hooves high, and moved slowly with its hind hooves. The front hooves were facing Duan Qing. The eyes that looked more condescending because of this movement were staring at him, as if they were about to Hit him flat.
Duan Qing moved twice to confirm that the big guy was still aiming at him with this movement, and then a strange thought came into his mind: "What does this mean? Don't you want me to go around... No?" You look down on people..." He slowly approached along the diagonal line, intending to suddenly accelerate around the back while the wild boar was twisting its "feet". However, when he just approached, the wild boar's eyes flashed fiercely. Flash, the huge body suddenly fell.
"boom!"
The air flow mixed with fallen leaves sprayed out with a huge earthquake sound, and Duan Qing's tiny figure was mixed in the middle. Although he avoided this direct suppressive attack, he was still blown away by the huge aftermath. , the huge force made him fly along the ground as if he was floating on water. After bouncing a few times, he hit a big tree.
During the violent impact, Duan Qing spit out a mouthful of blood, but quickly rolled over, gritted his teeth and stood up. This blow almost knocked out his health, and the pain in his back was unbearable. But unlike Mengzhu, Duan Qing had no intention of giving up, and the light in his eyes became even hotter. He stood there checking his health, while slowly building up his strength, shaking his shoulders, and an idea flashed through his mind.
After the dust cleared, the wild boar's upright figure gradually appeared, and the two pairs of eyes staring at Duan Qing looked even more fierce.
Sure enough, this is intended to suppress infinitely... However, this move is not without flaws, as long as...
The expected panic of the prey did not appear, and the wild boar approached again with small steps. Duan Qing maintained the same movement speed as the wild boar's "aiming" action, and slowly lured it to one side.
He calculated the distance and stepped back little by little. The wild boar also moved forward little by little with its two short legs. The delicate balance was maintained for a few seconds, and then was broken at a certain moment - Duan Qing took a step forward, and then jumped back.
In front of him, a huge shadow hit again, and the shock wave mixed with dust rolled out in all directions. The power seemed to be a bit stronger than the previous blow, but Duan Qing knew that the real threatening moment had passed.
His body flew out, and then of course he hit a tree with his back - he calculated the position and distance, and adjusted his protective posture, so after this impact, he still had 8% of his life left. value. Then, he spread his arms, arched his back and leaned against the tree. When his body was about to slide down, he stepped on the tree trunk with his feet, like a spring about to collapse.
The next moment, the spring suddenly disappeared, and the timing of his rush was unexpected by the wild boar - it hadn't even stood up yet.
"I heard that you have a high IQ..." In the dust, he rushed to the wild boar and stabbed him with his sword: "I heard that you look down on people..."
The howl that had been accompanied many times sounded again, but this time the cry was painful and shrill—
The sword accurately hit the wild boar's eye.
