Chapter 461: 460. Dangerous

  Chapter 461 460. Crisis

   As night fell, a strange starry sky appeared above Suldak's head, and the seven star rivers divided the night sky into pieces. Perhaps the hustle and bustle of the city covered up this beautiful night sky, and it was only when he came to the northern suburbs that Suldak noticed such a beautiful night scene.

In the vast star field, the nearest star to the Maca plane is as big as a pumpkin, the other three look like oranges surrounded by a circle of energy, and the rest are countless dots .

A bonfire was lit in front of the collapsed cave, and the branches of Yauma pine were crackling in the fire. This kind of branch is rich in oil. The wooden grill was set up, and the two fur-free arms of the demon ape were grilled on the wooden grill. The fat dripped into the charcoal continuously, exuding a faint smell of meat.

Regular consumption of the flesh and blood of monsters can strengthen the body. Among the many ingredients of monsters, dragon meat has always been a precious ingredient highly respected by the nobles of the Grimm Empire, but now few people can see real dragons, so demon hunters can hunt Most of them belong to the sub-dragon family, among which the tamed dragons are frequent customers in high-end restaurants, while the swamp poisonous dragons and subspecies of flying dragons can only be eaten at the top banquet tables of the empire.

Demonic ape meat is not often seen in high-end restaurants in Wojmara City, and the most essential part of the demonic ape's body is the heart, and naturally the arms are the most edible. In the past, these demonic apes were usually eaten Hiding in the deep mountains and swamps, it is not easy to hunt down a magic ape.

Andrew, an aboriginal warrior of the Nanai nationality, kept flipping the meat of the demon ape on the wooden rack. The temperature of the charcoal fire was so high that the arm of the demon ape was slightly burnt. He used a wooden stick to push the carbon block out of the fire , to dissipate the heat of the charcoal pile.

  The ogre Gullitum sat next to Andrew, staring longingly at the barbecue on the bonfire, with his hands on his knees, as quiet as a child.

Suldak said to the half-elf archer Samira who was sitting in the shadow of the mountain wall: "After this mission is over and I return to Wojmara City, I will check which attribute this 'magic-weave bone' belongs to." Yes, if the magic pattern is explosive power, strength and agility, it depends on how well this spirit bone matches you. If the matching degree meets the standard, as long as you have enough carrying capacity, I will find a way to get this magic bone The spirit bone of the pattern is made into a magic pattern implant, and it is colonized into your right arm."

   Pick up a stick with a burnt end and draw a sketch on the ground, but the symbols on it are a bit messy.

In the beginning, the great wizard Inoyatila only taught Suldak some superficial knowledge about the part of the magic-weave breeding equipment. In order to obtain the strongest power, the great wizard Inoyatila would almost cover the complete monster skin on the Indigenous warriors, so that most tribal warriors couldn't bear the carrying capacity, and finally the strength of the indigenous warriors implanted in the colony broke through the limit of their bodies, and they exploded to death.

  Samila is gnawing on an unknown fruit, this blue fruit is a bit sour.

   "My arm bone is going to be replaced with this one?" Samira asked.

She looked at the messy lines on the ground, but she couldn't understand what Suldak was drawing, so she set her eyes on the huge magic pattern spirit bone beside Suldak. The magic ape was nearly four meters long. , with an arm span of nearly five meters, that piece of magic-weave bone belongs to the ulna on the arm of the magic ape. Just such a piece of magic-weave bone is nearly one meter long, and it is extremely thick. I want to put it on Samira's arm completely. It is impossible to implant such a spiritual bone.

Suldak rubbed the center of his brows with his fingers, shook his head and said to Samira: "No, the magic-weave implant is to strip the part with the magic-weave from the spirit bone and implant it into your arm. Said that the breeding equipment is like a tattoo, but the breeding equipment has very strict requirements on the natural magic patterns."

Samira, who was leaning against the shadow of the stone wall, breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice, "That's good! Just now I was really worried that my right arm would become as thick as that big guy in the future. It's really unacceptable."

   After speaking, the half-elf archer ate the last bite of green fruit.

  Andrew spun the deviled ape meat on the grill, and said, "I think this deviled ape probably has the strength of a third-tier monster. If it hadn't been injured beforehand, maybe we wouldn't be its opponent."

   Regarding the battle just now, although the demon ape has become food on the barbecue grill, everyone still has lingering fears. No matter in terms of size and strength, the demon ape has an overwhelming advantage. If the half-elf archer shot a sharp arrow at a critical moment, it is very likely that everyone's hunting operation will end in failure.

  Suldak took off the arm of a devil ape that was half-roasted, handed it to the ogre who was already impatient, and turned to Andrew and said, "Anyway, this time it's not in vain."

   The ogre Gullitum is not afraid of heat, he took the hot barbecue and stuffed it into his mouth, breathing in 'hiss' from the hot barbecue.

   "Captain, what shall we do next?" Andrew took a piece of roasted meat from the arm of another demon ape, and handed it to Suldak on a silver plate.

  Suldak took the plate, looked at the silent jungle outside and said, "Since we've come here, follow the previously planned route and walk around this area, and you may have unexpected gains."

  With a meat cleaver, Andrew cut off a piece of **** meat and threw it into his mouth, squinting his eyes to taste the delicious food.

The ogre sat next to the collapsed cave, and quickly gnawed off the arm of the ape. Andrew saw that the ogre would not sleep until he was full, so he had to put a rib on the charcoal fire. Row.

A simple tent was set up outside the cave, but each member of the team had a unique way to spend the night. The half-elf archer chose to hang his sleeping bag on the branch of the tree canopy, while the aborigine warriors lay down next to the campfire with the cannibals. Mo sat on the ground, only Suldak slept in the tent.

  Indigenous warrior Andrew offered to be on duty at night...

Feeling someone pushing him slightly in his sleep, Suldak opened his eyes, just in time to see Samira squatting at the entrance of the tent, with light red eyes staring at him, Samira put his hand between his lips, motioning for Su Erdak was silent.

Suldak crawled out of his sleeping bag. It was pitch black outside, and the bonfire outside the tent had already dimmed. Occasionally, sparks would burst out from the ashes. The indigenous warrior Andrew sat in front of the fire with his big ax in his arms, dozing off. , the ogre was lying beside the native warrior, holding a half-eaten rib in his hand, the ogre opened its mouth wide open, as if it was also eating a big meal in a dream.

Just as he was about to ask Samira what happened, he suddenly saw more than a dozen pairs of green eyes in the surrounding woods. They were full of greed, suspicion, and violent eyes. They seemed to have some kind of fear , did not dare to approach the camp, but some lingered around the camp, because it was dark and night, the jungle was even darker, and their faces could not be seen clearly.

  Samila squatted outside the tent, holding the forest bow in her hand, and put a feathered arrow on the bowstring, aiming at the green eyes in the forest.

"They are ghost monkeys on the Maca plane. To be precise, they should eat everything. They are a group of cowardly, cunning and greedy guys. Except for their physical structure, they are not as civilized as mines. The kobolds in…”

   Speaking of Samira, she wanted to shoot these guys hiding in the dark with her bow.

  Suldak held her down with his hands. Before her arm was completely healed, every time she opened her bow and arrow, it would be a new trauma to her right arm.

  Suldak reached out and threw the bones beside the bonfire into the forest, and there were countless howls and fighting sounds in the forest.

Apparently those ghost monkeys were attracted by the smell of meaty bones next to the campfire. Surdak didn't let Samira shoot unnecessary bows and arrows, but kept throwing gnawing arrows into the dark woods. Clean bones, he felt that as long as the bones of the demon ape were fed clean, the ghost monkeys would disappear before their eyes when the sun was shining in the jungle after they had eaten their fill. .

  Suldak threw away the meaty bones next to the campfire, and the ghost monkeys in the darkness disappeared.

  But the next morning, Andrew was cooking porridge with the marching rations, and those ghost monkeys appeared in the woods again, this time they were even more daring, and they rushed to the branches one after another, looking eagerly at the combat team in the jungle.

  The dawn sun shines through the lush forest on the glade, and dappled spots of light appear on the grass.

Those ghost monkeys are holding blowing arrows in their hands, just hanging a few leaves under their crotches. They are not tall, they look like monkeys covered with fine fluff, cunning and insidious, full of greed and desire, squatting on the branches one by one , Looking at the camp of the combat team, there was a sharp cry of woo-wa-la.

Samira squatted halfway on the grass, drew the forest bow in her hand again, and the arrow with white feathers turned into a flash of light, precisely piercing through a ghost monkey squatting on a branch. The place where she was sleeping happened to be where she slept last night. It was lying on the branch with its ugly nose, sticking to the branch and sniffing the smell. Samira couldn't help but shoot an arrow at last with its obscene appearance.

  A group of ghost monkeys scattered on the tree, leaving only one ghost monkey with a feathered arrow between his eyebrows, and he was still holding a blowing arrow tightly in his hand.

  Andrew said: "Don't pay attention to these guys. They can't be killed. These guys are territorial. As long as we leave their territory, they won't dare to follow us."

  After breakfast, the combat team put away the tent at the entrance of the cave, and the ghost monkeys gathered again, this time even more ghost monkeys gathered.

The ogre complained to Suldak that this kind of little ghost monkey was not tasty at all, and his stomach would hurt if he ate too much. Rushing to a place a little farther away will not scare them away.

  The combat team walked through the jungle, and hundreds of ghost monkeys followed the team on the tree behind them.

Until he came to a river valley, the river was not too deep, but the river was seven or eight meters wide. Andrew stepped into the river and said to Suldak excitedly: "Captain, those ghost monkeys are not Can swim, let's hurry across the river and take advantage of this opportunity to shake them off."

The team quickly walked through the waist-deep river. When the ghost monkeys saw the team crossing the river, they jumped down from the trees one after another. Whoa whoa.

   Several ghost monkeys boldly jumped into the river, and the river quickly covered their heads, and they were washed away by the river without even being able to struggle. The rest of the ghost monkeys dare not go into the water.

Suldak led the combat team quickly into the dense jungle on the opposite side. Just after entering the jungle, he found that there seemed to be something moving outside the forest. Silent panting sounded into Suldak's ears along with the sound of the wind. About a hundred meters away, there was a low growl like a hellhound, followed by the harsh sound of nails scraping against wood.

  After walking for so long, I finally met a hellhound in the jungle, and Suldak hurried over with his combat team.

   There was another strange howling sound in the distance, melancholy and continuous, and it quieted down after a long time.

  A croton tree more than 30 meters high fell down, and its branches spread out in all directions like a huge house.

  Andrew warns everyone to stay away from these branches and leaves, which can irritate the skin. Then the native warrior pushed the branch aside and squeezed his way through the other branches.

After traveling a short distance of a few hundred meters, the landform here has undergone earth-shaking changes. There are jagged rocks everywhere in the jungle. Follow the sound to search for them. After passing through this strange rock area, several people were caught by the scene in front of them. shocked.

  It is covered by a plant with huge leaves, so it is like standing in a tomato garden after shrinking twenty times.

There are thick and curly leaves everywhere, exuding a numbing and astringent smell. Those huge vegetation don't look like trees, just like tomato vines, with a huge red fruit hanging on it, each fruit is as long as It can reach two meters, and it is red hanging on the tree, and it is shining flickeringly. The surface of the fruit skin is covered with honeycomb-like honeycombs, and they are constantly wriggling.

   That weird low roar came from here, but when everyone arrived here, that sound disappeared quickly.

There was a strange atmosphere in the whole woodland. Even Samira and Andrew seemed to have never seen the strange plants here. Andrew reached out to touch a thick green tree trunk, and the tall plant with a diameter of about two meters actually moved slightly. After a while, he avoided Andrew's hand as if he was thinking, and the broad and thick leaves on the top of the plant curled up one after another, as if the whole plant withered in an instant.

   "What kind of tree is this?" Suldak asked the native warrior curiously.

  Andrew shook his head, and he set his eyes on Samira.

   Didn’t expect the half-elf archer to know the same thing...
