Elder Li and a group of high-ranking military officials stood in front of the dense forest. Their brows were tightly knitted together. Originally, they had planned to follow the national highway from Pearl City all the way to Luzhou. No one had expected that such a situation would occur. A good road was blocked by the dense forest.
The area around the national highway used to be farmland, but now it was desolate and uninhabited. The soldiers found many corpses in the drainage canals.
On the corpses of these farmers, there were scars of torture and beatings.
Since there was an unforeseen event ahead, groups of posthumans also came to investigate.
"Lin Xi, you came at the right time."
Elder Li came over to greet him. "Two helicopters flew over to take a look, but they couldn't see what was inside the forest. They also couldn't detect the scope of the forest. I would like to invite you to fly into the sky and take a look."
Lin Xi raised his head and looked at the canopy of the trees. "I'm afraid I can't see anything. The trees are too dense. Look, even half of the sunlight is blocked."
"Anyway, just give it a try. It doesn't matter if it succeeds or not. It would be better if it succeeds."
Bio-energy was activated. The red blood cells formed a thick blood mist and rushed out from the back of his shoulder. The half-liquid, half-gaseous Hagi Hyuk's length increased from two meters to ten meters. When Lin Xi rushed into the sky, everyone was shocked by the bright red, gorgeous blood trail in the sky.
"He's not flapping his wings, but flying in a jet mode!"
"So cool. I wonder when I can fly in the air and soar in the sky!" Wang Wei's eyes under his thick eyebrows shone with a longing light.
The pale green in Wu Yan's eyes became even brighter. Beside him, Su Xiaowan was completely shocked. She could not believe it.
"It's really Hagi Hyuk? How is that possible! "
Everyone raised their heads and watched as Lin Xi flew away. Using the eruption of red blood cells from Hagi Hyuk as a driving force, he soared in the sky. Everywhere he looked was green. The ground below almost became a "green sea."
What was worse was that he couldn't see the end of the green ocean. One must know that his eyesight was ten times that of an ordinary person!
Five minutes later, Lin Xi returned and landed. He retracted his blood wings and said with a solemn expression, "This forest is very big, and I can't see the end of it. Moreover, it's too quiet. There might be animals and birds, but they're very few. I flew into the forest to take a look, but I couldn't see anything."
Everyone knew that there was definitely something strange and dangerous about this forest.
"Let's make a detour."
"Detour? This was unrealistic. There was no way to determine how big the forest was. Besides, there were mountains on both sides of the forest. What if the forest completely blocked the middle? Don't tell me we have to climb over the mountain? "
"Can we use incendiary bombs?"
"This won't do. The forest is too big, and it's hard to burn it down. Besides, we can't wait for many days. We don't have enough food."
"There's no other way. We can only brace ourselves and move forward. Fortunately, even if the top is covered by trees, the national highway below is still there. Tanks and cars can still move forward. Let the soldiers be vigilant and protect the ordinary people." Old Li made a decision.
The helicopter landed from the sky and was placed behind a large truck.
The large team entered the forest. The tall trees blocked the sunlight, and even though it was daytime, it felt like evening. Plus, there were no birds, insects, and other animals in the forest. It gave people a very depressing feeling.
Ordinary people were already tired after a long journey for a few days. Many of them couldn't stand entering such a depressing place.
However, there was no way to return or leave the team. They could only grit their teeth and enter. The mobilization soldiers mixed in with the troops encouraged everyone and gave them more food to raise their morale.
After walking in the dark forest for about three and a half hours, the team had to stop again because the national highway had been cut off.
On the ground, there were huge pits and piles of stones. Generally speaking, when a road was cut off after the apocalypse, it was very likely that it was done by bandits. But now, whether it was Old Li or an evolved person, it was the bandits who did it.
"Let's take a detour first. The tank company will open the way in front and crush the trees to make a path for the back. After we pass this section, we will return to the national highway. The armored company will spread out and protect the two sides of the team."
The seventeen tanks in the main team were the support of the tank school. They were all old tanks that were used for the training of the soldiers and students.
They had been used in the academy for many years, and after being exposed to the sun and wind, some of the tanks had rusted. Over the past four days, other than one tank that had been destroyed by a mutated Mutated Zerg, five of them had malfunctioned. Old Li was so angry that he had cursed out several times.
Eleven tanks that could still be used led the way, followed by armored vehicles, buses for transporting people, trucks for transporting food and supplies, and vans for the evolved humans. A few cars driven by ordinary people who had gotten gasoline followed behind.
In the roar of the tanks, the tall trees were constantly crushed by the tracks.
This ear-piercing sound also brought a lot of confidence to the ordinary people behind them. After all, tanks could even blow down giants with one shot.
However, Wang Feifei and the others who were driving were very unhappy. There were broken tree trunks and stumps everywhere on the ground, and their butts were about to break from the jolting.
Even Yani couldn't sleep in the car with this degree of jolting. She held her forehead with her hand and endured the low blood pressure when she woke up after a long period of sleep. She walked on the muddy ground with Dong Qing, Mai Shiranui, Ning Shuixin, and He Rui. Mai Shiranui, and Ning Shuixin.
In the past two days, Yani's harmless behavior made the girls slightly less wary of her. Seeing that she was empty-handed, Dong Qing handed her a weapon: a crowbar.
"Thank you."
Yani waved her hand. It was very smooth. She needed to consume energy to turn into a female giant.
There were only two ways for giants to replenish their energy. The first was to eat people, and the second was to bask in the sun. It was similar to photosynthesis, absorbing light energy and transforming it into bio-energy. However, she didn't like to eat people, and there wasn't enough sunlight here.
Having a weapon was much better than fighting with bare hands.
Moving forward in the dense forest, Dong Qing didn't use a beheading broadsword. The reason why she used that kind of weapon was to deal with giants. Now, she was holding a shield-sword. The wide scabbard was used as a shield, and it was actually the weapon of the Hero, the mercenary's superior profession in the Flame Emblem World.
The Hero's Sword.
As a five-star genius, in addition to the gains from killing giants in the past few days, Dong Qing didn't lack weapons.
In her inventory space, there were all kinds of weapons. She couldn't even count how many there were.
Although there wasn't anything particularly expensive, she still felt very happy when she saw so many weapons — actually, this wasn't all because of her Weapon Master Talent. Another reason was that this flat-chested girl was a squirrel …
Ning Shuixin held a Horse Sword in one hand and an oak shield in the other. She wore cloth armor, strength gloves, and agility shoes.
He Rui's outfit was similar, but her weapons were two attack claws.
Beside the two girls, Mai Shiranui was holding a flower butterfly fan. She looked around cautiously. As for Lin Xi, he was sitting on Tyrant's shoulder with the Ogre Axe in his hand. He was focused on looking into the distance.
However, he couldn't see far because of the dense forest.
Maybe the road had suddenly disappeared, or maybe they were walking in the wrong direction. After the group went around the destroyed road, they couldn't find the national road. They could only trudge through the forest.
Soon, night came. The forest, which was already very dark during the day, became so dark at night that one couldn't even see their own fingers.
The group stopped and camped in a large square that was made by a tank. A large number of fallen trees were set on fire, forming a bonfire. If there were monsters in the forest, this action would undoubtedly attract them. However, there was no other way.
In the dark forest, if there were no fire to light up the place, the tired and hungry people would probably have a mental breakdown.
Old Li raised a fire to provide warmth. To replenish the energy of the ordinary people who had exhausted a lot of their stamina while moving through the forest, Old Li ordered them to bring out more food from the small amount they had. Large pots of gruel were cooked over the fire, and some minced meat was added to it.
More than eighty thousand people had to eat. Even if they killed a pig and added it to the gruel, there was only minced meat left in each pot.
The soldiers ate the same food as the ordinary people. Although some of them were unhappy, they couldn't say anything when they saw the white-haired Elder Li eating the same food as them with a teapot.
After drinking the gruel, the people's energy and energy recovered a little. One by one, they lay down to sleep. There was still a long way to go. Only by maintaining their energy could they make it to Luzhou alive.
None of the evolved humans slept. After all, if there was something wrong with the forest, they would be attacked after they lit the bonfire.
To everyone's surprise, the attack came in the middle of the night!
They used tanks and vehicles to form a defensive circle. By the time the soldiers on the outermost patrol realized something was wrong, it was already too late. The night and the trees perfectly hid the figures of the attackers. A large number of rocks were thrown out from behind the trees. Rocks were nothing.
However, in the middle of the stones, there were also scorching fireballs and cold icicles mixed together!
"Ahhhhh …"
Screams instantly rang out. Some of the soldiers were ignited by the fireballs and howled in pain. Others were hit by the icicles. They were either directly pierced through or frozen into ice sculptures by the spreading cold air.
The forest lit up a lot. Eyes that looked like burning phosphorescence made the original darkness look even more eerie. Then, all kinds of strange sounds could be heard. Hunched green-skinned monsters with wooden sticks in their hands jumped down from the trees and came out of the darkness.
Among the large group of monsters, there were also minotaurs that looked like giant bulls standing upright and holding huge iron axes. There were also some green-skinned and red-skinned monsters with magic flames flickering in their hands.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
The sound of bullets being fired, the screams before death, and the chaotic shouts all mixed together. The evolved humans were all alarmed. Zhen Tian shouted in shock, "It's goblins! Green goblins, red goblins, and minotaurs. F * ck, this forest is the Grand Forest of Dungeon Fighter Online! "
His voice suddenly turned into a wail. A thick bolt of lightning directly struck down from the sky. The flesh on the fatty's body was instantly blasted open by the lightning. Pale yellow fat under the skin seeped out from the charred wounds in large chunks.
"Careful, there's a BOSS among the ambushing monsters!"
Lin Xi yelled as he threw his Ogre Axe up, drawing away a bolt of lightning that was aimed at the young girls.
Actually, there was no need for a reminder. The group could already see a short monster with a scimitar wielding a scimitar under the trees not far away. It was Rakaino, and the witch who was floating in mid-air. She was wearing a red and blue three-point robe.
Inferno Vinoshu!
Frost Kerach!
Two beautiful witch girls with hot figures appeared. They held long wands in their hands, and their bodies were wrapped in beautiful red and blue magic light.
The ground started to tremble, and a black-skinned, red-haired, ferocious-looking, pale white horns, and a thick skull necklace around its neck appeared. It was as tall as a giant, and it used a mountain-splitting axe to sweep away a large number of trees and revealed itself.
"It's the Minotaur King, Sauta! The Bosses of Grand Forests have brought a large group of monsters and are attacking together! "
All the evolved humans had grim expressions. There were so many monsters and so many BOSS. This sudden ambush could result in the complete annihilation of this large group!
