Based on Wei Huo's current physique, the Strength Wristband was not very useful to him. However, it was still very useful to new players who had just recovered their time.
It was understandable that Wei Huo looked down on the Strength Wristband. After all, he was more than a hundred years ahead of other players!
"Let's hope humans recover their time soon!" As he spoke, Wei Huo and the two beasts embarked on their journey to the south.
Three years had passed since they started their journey!
The reason they stopped was not because they arrived at the southernmost part of the Northern Continent, but because they encountered an incident.
Over the past three years, there had been many strong earthquakes. The first one had torn the continent apart, and the remaining ones had pieced the continents together. The five continents in the East, West, South, and Central had gradually taken shape. The Central continent had reached its designated location and stopped. It was near the equator, and Wei Huo believed that the animals and plants there were as hot as dogs.
The Northern continent that Wei Huo was in was still drifting north. Wei Huo estimated that it would take some time to reach its designated location. However, even so, the temperature of the continent had dropped to a terrifying point. Half of the northern region was already covered in snow!
Based on the map, Wei Huo was not far from the southernmost seaside of the Northern continent. He would arrive in about one or two years.
But the reason why he stopped was because something strange happened that night.
In the evening, Wei Huo brought the two beasts into a forest. As usual, they started a fire. The two beasts went to look for firewood. After three years of company with Wei Huo, they gradually learned some common sense. They were carrying a lot of luggage. Some of them were carrying water bags, some were carrying wooden basins, some were carrying food, and some were carrying cured meat. Apart from that, they were wearing wooden armor on their heads and abdomens. There were also some scratches and impressions on the armor.
They had also experienced many dangers in the past three years. Terrifying predators were everywhere, and the speed of biological evolution had increased. The prey of the past had become the terrifying predators of the present. No one could underestimate them.
After collecting the firewood and letting Wei Huo light it up, they found a flat and warm place to lie down. They were exhausted after a whole day of traveling.
Wei Huo sat down with his legs crossed and took the opportunity to cultivate his Qi.
His face did not age, and he maintained the appearance of an 18-year-old. His body did not grow at all. He did not look strong, nor did he look thin. His body was maintained at an average proportion, but his cells were filled with energy. His cell strength was extremely high, and the explosive power of his muscles was very strong.
Therefore, all the powerful enemies they encountered along the way were basically dealt with by him. This made the two giant beasts even more determined to follow him closely.
As the saying goes, it doesn't matter if the opponent is weak or not. The key is to have strong teammates.
Anyway, no matter how weak they are, they can't compare to me.
Wei Huo meditated and practiced his Qi. However, his senses became very sensitive during this process. He could even sense hostility. He would wake up immediately if any beasts were to attack them. Wei Huo was meditating and practicing his Qi.
That was why the two beasts could rest at ease with Wei Huo around. However, things were different tonight.
This was the first time Wei Huo's alarm system had malfunctioned!
When the bonfire was extinguished in the middle of the night, the enemies hiding in the surroundings suddenly launched an attack. Wei Huo did not react at all until the attack was right in front of him. He suddenly threw a punch.
Wei Huo felt like he had hit a hard object. It was like a wooden stick. However, because he was too strong, he broke the wooden object. It was dark at night, and he was in the middle of the forest. Even Wei Huo could not see who the attacker was. Wei Huo was shocked.
The two giant beasts were in an even worse state. Before they realized what was going on, they were caught into the sky. They roared crazily after they were awakened, but it was useless. The python-like weapons wrapped around them and tied them up into the sky.
Those weapons seemed to want to attack Wei Huo, but Wei Huo was small, fast, and strong. Those weapons could not touch him at all. From time to time, wooden sticks would sneak attack him, but they were all broken by Wei Huo.
Finally, when Wei Huo rushed out of the dense forest and arrived under the moonlight, he finally saw who the attackers were.
They were huge trees!
They were Tree-Men who could walk upright!
Each of the trees was more than 20 meters tall. They had two legs, two hands, and a huge canopy on top of their heads. Their eyes and ears were in the middle of their bodies. Some of the Tree-Men seemed to have just drilled out of the soil. They could walk upright, and the roots of their legs were starting to shrink inside their legs.
Some of the Tree-Men had not drilled out of the soil yet. They were supporting the ground with their two huge palms and pulling their legs out of the soil.
Wei Huo's eyes widened in shock.
Were these Tree-Men animals, plants, or … vegetative people?
Wei Huo did not know how to describe them. Were they a Tree-Man or a Tree-Man? They seemed to be quite interested in Wei Huo. They surrounded Wei Huo. One of the Tree-Men had two giant beasts tied to its vines. The luggage and dry food fell to the ground one after another. The Tree-Men looked at those things curiously and did not move.
Wei Huo frowned because he saw the Tree-Men's Information Panel. The panel showed that the Tree-Men's levels were not ordinary. In other words, each Tree-Man's strength was similar to his, and there were probably hundreds of Tree-Men around him!
What should he do?
If he chose not to save the two giant beasts and ran away, he should be able to escape. However, if he chose to save them, no one would be able to escape.
Just as Wei Huo was deep in thought, one of the Tree-Men suddenly bent down and lowered its head. It extended its fingers and kept shaking its fingers. Leaves and flowers kept falling, and a few red and yellow flowers floated in front of Wei Huo.
Wei Huo was confused.
'What's going on? '
Wei Huo did not see the Tree-Men having mouths. In other words, they could not speak. However, it seemed like they had their own way of communicating.
Wei Huo was pretty good at biology. Plants usually communicated by spreading pollen. Wei Huo did not know what species of trees these Tree-Men were, but there were all kinds of flowers growing on the branches of their canopies. It seemed like those were their communication organs.
However, the problem was that Wei Huo could not communicate with them!
The acceleration of biological evolution did not only increase the intelligence of animals. Even plants had evolved into animals and plants.
The next moment, Wei Huo suddenly sneezed. The Tree-Men were indeed communicating with pollen. The pollen around them was too dense. However, moments later, Wei Huo realized that the Tree-Men would sometimes shake the red flowers, and sometimes they would shake the yellow flowers, and sometimes they would shake the purple flowers.
Could it be that … this was how they communicated?
Wei Huo picked up a red flower and shook it.
