Dewdrops fell from the leaves and dripped on his head. He trembled, then wiped his face helplessly, and laughed at himself again.
This is already the fifth day since Broken Mountain entered the Emerald Forest.
He walked with difficulty among the bushes, reaching out to push aside tree branches that were blocking his path from time to time. When some strange distant calls sounded, he would stop and listen to make sure that they did not represent any approaching danger.
As the strongest guild in the alliance at present, Jianghu has not invested much energy in Greenstone Village. There are naturally people who develop members, but obviously not to the level of Wings of Freedom and others. Therefore, when some kind of rumor emerged and the president asked him to bring someone over to take a look, he could only join in the fun and follow the order.
Wings of Freedom has made great moves, including their recent provocative behavior in Lanka County, which are actually all bluffs - they seem to know something, and then they sent many good players here. The local villages also had their numerical advantage, and they were even blocked when they came over.
It was not an even battle - in order to cause trouble for their team, they sent a lot of extra people, including newcomers born in Greenstone Village. Looking at it this way, the one who used to be somewhat famous, the one named Wuji Fantasy God, is still somewhat courageous, but this performance undoubtedly exposes the fact that there are really good things in the Emerald Forest.
If this was a bluff, then the price they paid was too high.
Without preparation or hesitation, he took the remaining men and rushed directly into this forest that was said to be very weird, and as expected... suffered a lot.
The monsters they encountered at the beginning also did not make their group feel the harshness of the forest, and because they were located next to the Novice Village, the people in the team were also sure that the monsters here were weak as expected, but after that, Like the people of Wings of Freedom, they became an embarrassing situation where he was the only one left.
They encountered a huge tiger.
Now that he thinks of that tiger, Duan Shanyue still has lingering fear in his heart - that size is far beyond what an ordinary tiger can possess, but at the same time it has a speed that is incompatible with that giant body. In just a few encounters, the teammates around him were knocked down, torn apart, blown away, and bitten by it... Until when he was running away, the tiger opened his mouth and shot a green wind ball at him, and he finally knew , this monster that can also release magic and is no different from a demonized creature is definitely not something that he can defeat.
He ran as hard as he could, passing several streams and a dilapidated wooden house on the way. He seemed to see a human figure in the corner of his eye - of course he had no time to pay attention to it. With his agility, he circled various terrains many times, almost to the point of fainting. Finally, the roar became more and more distant, so he climbed up a tree, held his breath and hid for a while, waiting for all the movement around him to go away.
Now he is still wandering deep in the forest, not knowing what to do next. After climbing over a slope, he held his knees and panted. What he saw in front of him was still endless trees. The sounds around him became quieter, which also made him feel a little calmer.
Whether he could catch the Wings of Freedom person or not, he could no longer imagine. In such a difficult situation, with the preparations there, it would probably be much better than his own... He tightened his grip. He put on the leather armor, then checked the dry food in the bag, calculated how long he could survive here, and when he could retreat... Then he looked ahead, sighed and continued to move forward.
I hope that all this hard work will not be in vain. All that is left is to do our best and listen to fate.
*********************
The imaginary image of the farm uncle did not appear after all.
When several people walked around the blocking giant tree and saw clearly the source of the sound, they really did not expect that what they would see in front of them would be such a scene.
It was a man in ragged clothes. Although he looked very pitiful, he acted without hesitation. He was holding a hoe and digging into the ground. Sometimes he would stop to take a break, wipe the sweat from his forehead with his tattered sleeves, and then continue to work hard.
After observing carefully for a while and confirming that there was no danger in the strange scene in front of them, Duan Qing and the others finally came closer. After discussing in low voices for a moment, Mengzhu, who was chosen as the temporary negotiation representative, walked out hesitantly and asked the person over there: "This...Mr."
The girl's voice spread in the forest. It was not loud, but it felt like it spread far away, because the moment the girl opened her mouth, the sound of hoeing stopped, and the sound was endless. There are always various noises in the forest on weekdays, but now they all stopped abruptly as if they had been agreed upon.
The next moment, violent shouting suddenly sounded.
"You guys! Get out of here quickly! Go away!"
The man who was suspected to be an NPC had a hoarse voice, as if he hadn't drank water for several days. His hair was disheveled, and his crazy eyes were projected from the middle of his hair. He stared at the obviously frightened people without stopping at all.
"Get out of here! Did you hear that? Don't come here again!"
Mengzhu hugged his shoulders and turned around to look at the others with pleading eyes. However, what he saw was the surprised expressions of each of them: Why did this person dig a hole here, why did he drive them away, and, most importantly, The thing is...why did he become like this?
After the initial shock passed, more questions remained in everyone's minds. The embarrassment lasted for a few seconds, and the girl who was encouraged by others could only continue to speak: "Sir, you... do you need any help? I... we can... ....”
"Get out! Don't you understand? Just get out of here!"
The crazy look and unreasonable attitude, if it were a real scene, several people would be either scared away or angry. But this is a game. Even Xiaobai Aniu can see something unusual in this. How can the other players easily give up on this strange person who suddenly appears in the deep forest. However, when Duan Qing was about to step forward and try to negotiate in person, the beggar-like figure opposite saw that it was fruitless and started to raise the hoe in his hand and hit him.
"Get out! Get out of here...!"
Duan Qing, who has ten points of strength, can hear a whistling sound if he uses all his strength when he holds a dagger in his hand and strikes. However, the waving hoe in front of me could already faintly hear the sound of wind and thunder.
Amidst the excitement, the scene suddenly became chaotic. Liu Qingniu shouted and wanted to fight back, but Duan Qing pulled him back again.
"Don't fight, don't fight. This person might be a key figure... Let's retreat first and think of a way to come back... Hey, hey, don't fight, let's go, we can't leave yet ......"
"Don't let me see you again!"
"Ah ah ah, run, run, run..."
After scurrying around and fleeing in embarrassment for a certain distance, everyone finally escaped the man's pursuit. When Duan Qing looked back, the crazy figure was almost invisible. Vaguely, they could hear the sound of digging in the previous direction. If their eyesight was good enough, they could also see the hunched black figure staggering back to where they were before, bending down. He threw something into the hole he dug just now, and then started to bury it again...
"Hahaha......"
Amid the laughter that gradually came, Duan Qing glared at the woman in black cloak who was covering her mouth and laughing: "Why are you laughing! You just ran away too, didn't you..."
"That's different. I followed him calmly."
The woman laughed again for a while, and finally stopped, and turned to a serious face: "Okay, okay, let's get down to business, what do you think..."
"To meet such a person in such a place, no matter how you think about it, there will be problems..."
"I think that the person just now was not dressed and behaved like ordinary people, or that he was someone who had experienced strong winds and waves, and his heart was too shaken, so until now..."
"I would like to know if there is any hero who uses a hoe as a weapon, and whether he can use the magic hoeing technique..."
"But those two moves by that person just now are still very powerful! He has the demeanor of our boss back then..."
"Quiet! Be careful, you attract that person again... Hey, what are you going to do..."
"Since he is a madman, I can always lie to him. I will say that he is his long-lost son..."
Xue Ling Huan Bing looked at those people and listened to their various random remarks. She felt disdainful but also felt a little inexplicable.
What have I heard? Are you all newcomers who have never seen the world? Well, you are indeed a bunch of newcomers. You have so many cute ideas. People of your own level will definitely not Open up so many ideas...
But in retrospect, when I first started playing games, had I ever done such a thing... At that time, I was indifferent to games and other things, so how could I remember those things? In my impression, apart from the expressions of subordinates towards their superiors, the only thing I can remember is the look in Xu Liangyu’s eyes...
No, what was I thinking...
Xue Ling Huan Bing shook her head, and then tried to guide the discussion in front of her that was about to go sideways.
"Have any of you seen that person before? Or heard of such a person? Have you noticed his movements..."
A huge roar came from the woods behind.
"Roar!"
Amidst the shocked expressions of several people, a huge tiger figure suddenly jumped out of the woods.
*********************
Tigers among sheep - this word is the most appropriate to use in the current situation.
The tiger suddenly rushed into the crowd, and Xueling Huanbing, who was standing at the back of the group, was the first to bear the brunt. However, as the strongest player in the team, all she could do was to block the sword in front of her in desperation, and then be knocked away by the huge force.
"Am I really...a bad person..."
With the mournful expression on the face of the evil young man from Jie City, the figure of the giant tiger suddenly enlarged in front of his eyes, and then he was thrown to the ground by the giant shadow.
Without saying a word, A Niu next to him pulled out his iron rod from his waist and hit the huge forehead with the rod. His strength was also increased to ten points, and the power of that rod should not be underestimated. Amidst the whistling sound, the knock on it made a muffled "dong" sound.
A Niu was so shocked by the force of the counter-shock that the tiger's mouth was in severe pain, and a hint of ferocity flashed in the giant tiger's yellow eyes. Then it exerted force on its feet, jumped forward, and slapped A Niu with its right paw.
Amid the screams, A Niu's body flew out and fell into the bushes in the distance.
The giant tiger turned around and approached its prey again, staring at the remaining two people from time to time, with a strong murderous look in its eyes. Mengzhu took out the dagger tremblingly. Although it was pointed towards the tiger, her heart was already blank.
Wh-what's going on...where did this monster come from...
The crisis came suddenly, and the girl's mind went blank. The instinctive fear made her teeth chatter, and her body seemed to have lost control. Although she had faced monsters like wild boars before, no matter how big the wild boar was, it was still a wild boar. Although that image was also very fierce. , but after seeing it too much, you get used to it. The one in front of you now is a real tiger.
It has to be said that the design image of the monster has a very important impact on the battle in this virtual reality game. At least at this time, Mengzhu was shocked. The girl trembled, barely holding back from collapsing, and subconsciously asked for help from others: "What... what should I do..."
Duan Qing over there is actually already taking action.
Bend your knees, gather strength, and then lunge to the right. The huge yellow-brown figure noticed his movements, bent back slightly, and turned faintly this way. Duan Qing stopped and found that this method of wrapping around his back didn't seem to work. , the voice of the evil young man moaning is still heard: "Help...help..."
The situation seemed to allow no further delay... so Duan Qing shouted loudly.
The tight air suddenly exploded, and the tiger suddenly rushed towards Duan Qing as if its hair was exploding.
The huge figure enlarged too fast. Even after trying to avoid it, the body's reaction could not keep up with his thoughts. Duan Qing turned his body and dodged sideways. The dagger made a cut on the tiger's right paw, at the cost of being hit on his shoulder by a claw.
Huge force came from his shoulders, and Duan Qing's silhouette flew up involuntarily and then spun. With blood splattering, his body flew sideways and turned around several times before falling to the ground, and then continued to roll into the bushes.
The giant tiger's head tilted toward the last standing figure. The girl was frightened and stepped back. A sudden and huge fear took over her body. The giant tiger slowly approached and was hit by a sword light from afar.
"Roar!"
As the giant tiger retreated in pain, the figure in a black cloak gradually appeared at the source of the sword light. Although he looked out of breath, Xueling Huanbing's eyes remained cold. Her hands moved slowly, and the long sword reflecting silver light was raised as she moved, and then stood diagonally in front of her.
"Run away!" she shouted.
On the other side of the bush, the man who was extremely hateful in her eyes coughed and stood up. His left arm hung down weakly, and his left shoulder was red. He must have been seriously injured. The impact just now made me feel a little uncomfortable, but now it seems that I am the only one who can hit...
hateful! This team is all novice players. The people who led the Wings of Freedom team before were beaten so badly in the end. Although I don't know how strong this monster is, if compared with that giant snake. .....
Her pupils suddenly dilated.
The tiger didn't give her any time to think anymore. It roared loudly, and a green ball spurted out from its bloody mouth, and then shot over quickly.
In a subconscious reaction, she jumped sideways, and the sphere landed where she was standing just now.
"boom!"
In the loud noise that reached the sky, several giant trees fell down with the explosion of magic. The fallen leaves flew up and scattered, and at the same time, more dust was stirred up. Xue Ling Huan Bing was half-kneeling aside and coughing violently. Duan Qing also slowly leaned towards this side, but his mood at this time sank like those fallen trees.
Just now, the system prompt sounded, and the symbol representing Jie City's evil boy in the team had turned gray.
After all, one of them died... Although they had been prepared for it, appearing in such a desperate situation really didn't bring them any good feeling.
The giant tiger probably saw the strongest one among these people, so he rushed towards the direction of Xue Ling Huan Bing again. Although the woman looked quite embarrassed, she was mentally prepared at this time, so she was still able to withstand such a powerful monster for several rounds. Her movements were like the wind, and her sword energy was like frost. As a powerful player, those few chops were powerful and heavy. With the body of a giant tiger, she probably wouldn't dare to confront her head-on.
But the giant tiger is obviously very agile. It is really unreasonable to put it on its huge body. However, when it jumps a few times, then suddenly pounces on it, the attack of its sharp claws is blocked and then quickly leaves - this kind of agility His actions do not want to remind people of such a mild word as "unreasonable".
"This... this game is really difficult..."
While Duan Qing was muttering to himself, the tiger over there pounced forward again. The woman dodged to the side, turned around and slashed down with her sword. The tiger jumped to the place where the woman was standing just like a drill. The mud under its hind paws splashed, and the huge force pushed its body, and it suddenly hit the direction of the Snow Spirit Fantasy Ice. go.
As if some aura was emanating from her body, Xue Ling Huan Bing's eyes flashed with a light of determination, and then she lowered her waist and exhaled, without dodge or dodge, raised her hands high, and the long sword behind her was raised in a row as she shouted loudly. Zhan struck head-on.
"boom!"
Amidst the huge shock, the two figures separated. Xue Ling Huan Bing took a few steps back with a bang, and then sat unsteadily on the ground. The tiger over there flew out and rolled down into a bush behind the forest.
"Hmph, do you really think I'm the same as them..." The woman gritted her teeth, stretched out her hand to wipe away the blood that overflowed from the corner of her mouth, and then rolled to the side.
In the bushes that were crushed by the giant shadow, the tiger leapt sideways into the air. The huge body slid gracefully in the air, and a giant blue ball flew over.
boom......
When the woman struggled to stand up again, she found the hateful man approaching quietly.
"How about it? Can you beat me?"
"It's definitely better than you..."
"...Hey, you guys have all died before, I think you can definitely... be able to fight this time! I believe in you!"
"...Thank you for your kindness, but I won't do anything to risk your death."
The sarcastic remarks continued, but the giant tiger over there would not wait. It paced and approached a little bit again, its fist-sized tiger eyes glowing with bloodthirsty light, as if it seemed to be irritated.
"The situation is a little bad. God knows if it will have any new tricks later..."
"Based on my understanding of the game, yes."
"Can you hope for something good..."
"There is a cause-and-effect move called poisonous milk, but I don't want to practice it."
Xue Ling Huan Bing spoke, but her eyes never left the target in front of her. The confrontation only lasted a few moments, and then the running Gangfeng appeared again, and the figures of both parties suddenly approached——
A blue light suddenly appeared in the field.
Blue light condensed between the two shadows that were about to collide, and the cold air instantly overflowed. Even the fallen leaves on the ground were immediately dyed with a layer of frosty white. The advancing figure here stopped, and a huge roar and crash came from the opposite side at the same time.
The sound of breaking ice sounded, and the shrill roar became clear. In the gradually dissipating cold air, the giant tiger's steps were shaky, and he fell to the ground unsteadily. It seemed that he had hit it. Not very light.
The woman holding the sword continued to stare forward, but there was some confusion on her alert face, and she didn't seem to understand what happened at that moment - she even thought it was the tiger's new move, so although she was confused and the tiger's fall Next, the hands holding the sword did not relax at all.
However, Duan Qing on the side had seen this scene before. He quickly turned his head and began to search around with his eyes.
The next moment, he found the blue figure.
It was still the gorgeous blue robe, holding the blue staff in his hand - this time he was closer, and he could see that the gorgeous blue robe was stained with some mud and dead leaves, making him look a little embarrassed, but The weapon's appearance is clearly visible, and it indeed looks like a staff. An azure blue gemstone is set in one end of it, designed in an elongated diamond shape, and the light on it is fading.
The gaze under the hood was looking this way, wandering around the two of them for a while, and then fixed on Duan Qing. Then the owner of the gaze seemed to remember the people in front of him, and he seemed to have some enlightenment. Click your chin.
Then, a soft voice unique to a woman echoed in Duan Qing's ears.
"Ah...it's you."
