Chapter 109 Tracking
Rebecca who entered the barren mountain did not find any trace of the white ghost.
There are coppergrass flowers, tree vines, shrubs and some towering plants deeper.
We have everything, but we didn’t see the crystal orchid.
Moreover, compared to Milo's strange experience, Rebecca's trip was uneventful throughout, and could even be said to be a bit boring.
Not only was there no trace of the Crystal Orchid, nor was there any strange creature in the barren mountains, not even the mining workers of the Solomon Gang saw a single one.
Just a day of walking on the mountain road.
This makes the initial preparation before leaving seem a bit cowardly, well, yes, it is cowardly.
Rebecca walked around in the barren hills with a gun in her hand in a daze. In the end, she was looking at everything. It was already dark.
When she was about to withdraw from the other direction of the barren mountain as planned, Rebecca suddenly heard some strange and tiny sounds coming from the hillside behind her.
Her eyes suddenly became lively.
Is it finally here? Been waiting all day.
Rebecca immediately grasped the combination blade at her waist.
It was already about nine o'clock at night, and the other side of the hillside in the distance was the darkest area within the field of vision. Rebecca could not see clearly what was making the sound in the dark environment with her naked eyes. .
But she was sure there was something there.
The law enforcement officer's black trench coat fully highlighted its advantages at this time.
The black cloth covering a large area of her body makes Rebecca almost invisible in the dark. As long as her steps are light enough, it is basically impossible to be discovered by others.
She began to circle.
It is absolutely stupid to approach the hillside directly. Only by finding a circuitous path can you catch someone by surprise.
……
Will the creatures in the barren mountains finally appear?
With this question in mind, Rebecca cautiously approached the target location.
She still doesn’t know what is constantly causing trouble in the barren mountains, the devil in Mogot’s mouth? Or the remaining Ikemu Aboriginal people?
No matter what is hidden in the mountains, it is directly related to Carl's death, and Rebecca does not want to miss this opportunity.
The sneaky sound coming from the dark environment was very clear. As she continued to close the distance, she was basically able to figure out the size of the person who made the sound.
Definitely not a small animal.
At least a creature weighing hundreds of pounds can make such a noise.
One thing that the locals know well is that there are no large wild animals in the area around Gailed.
The current situation is self-evident...
……
Click!
Whoosh! ! !
Corner location.
Rebecca sprinted directly into the mountain stream!
The blade in her hand was heading straight towards the target.
But the moment she appeared, she felt a terrible sense of crisis coming from the front, hitting her forehead.
In an instant, she made a subconscious dodge action.
Bang! ! !
The moment she turned her head sideways, a gunshot rang out from the front, and a bullet struck her left cheek, tearing a gap in her mask!
If she hadn’t dodged in advance, this shot would have directly killed her!
snort!
Rebecca did not expect that the other party was actually a gunman.
She did not slow down her forward trend. Instead, she accelerated her pace after dodging the first bullet. Because there were many natural bunkers in the surrounding environment, with her rapid speed, her opponent was very vulnerable. It is difficult to seize the opportunity to shoot the second time.
Furthermore, she had already judged by the sound of the gun that the opponent was using an old-fashioned rifle. The unloading and reloading process of this gun was very slow, and a second shot could not be fired in a short period of time. Rebecca was completely confident. Rush in front of your opponent in these few seconds!
……
Before the person arrives, the blade arrives first.
A short blade tore through the air and threw it straight towards the man holding the gun.
The next second, the blade was blocked and hit the rock on one side, causing dazzling sparks. But in just this moment, Rebecca had already come up to kill him at close range.
Her close combat skills and fighting IQ have always been online. In just a few seconds, she used cold weapons to rush to the target person. In this kind of ferocious Under the desperate fighting style, ordinary gunmen have panicked.
However, the opponent did not surrender immediately.
He still wants to fight back!
But the next second, two combination blades were already placed on his neck.
Rebecca knocked the man down easily, kicked away the old-fashioned rifle, and said coldly:
"Don't move if you don't want to die."
But before she finished speaking, she realized that the figure she was stepping on looked a little familiar.
"Well..."
This is a man, an old man. He is short and thin, with a slight hunchback.
The muffled sound he made when he was thrown to the ground still sounded very familiar to Rebecca.
……
"Is it you?"
After she saw clearly the appearance of the old man stepping on the soles of his boots, an incomprehensible expression appeared on her face.
“How could it be you?”
The one being stepped on by Rebecca’s long legs was Mogot.
Mogot, the retired law enforcement officer and old madman who was responsible for the Dramman family incident 24 years ago.
"Ouch, what are you doing! Are you going to kill me!?" Old Mogot struggled on the ground for a long time, unable to stand up against Rebecca's legs, and even ate a mouthful of mud.
Rebecca stayed for several seconds before taking off her boots and taking two steps back.
Walker did say before that Mogot's behavior was very strange. He would often go hunting in the barren mountains alone with a gun, and he would go there for several days, saying that he was hunting. What a devil in the mountains.
Anyway, Rebecca just listened casually at that time and didn't take Mogot's story seriously.
But now we happened to bump into each other in the barren mountains...
...
Mogot picked up his rifle and dusted himself angrily:
"What's wrong with you little girl! Just rush at someone when you see him! If it weren't for me, You deliberately put away the gun, but you were so confused just now!"
"I dodged it myself." Rebecca firmly did not think that the other party missed the shot just now.
“You!” Mogot was furious.
"Aren't you still injured? Why are you running into the mountains again?" Rebecca looked at Mogot's movement of supporting his shoulders, and suddenly remembered the strange wound she found when she saw him a few days ago.
"You take care of me! I have my own things to do! Don't let this get in the way and just stay cool."
Mogot walked around holding the rifle with a look of unluckyness. Rebecca.
But Rebecca was not going to let him go, because Mogot was obviously tracking something and had been observing the situation on the side of the hillside.
“Did you find anything?”
She kept pace with Mogot.
Mogot didn’t like Rebecca following behind, but he couldn’t beat Rebecca, so there was nothing he could do.
"There is something that behaves very strangely over there. I have been chasing him for a long time. It's all your fault. I almost lost him."
Mogot raised his finger and pointed into the mountains. A shadow.
The two followed one after the other.
But after getting closer, Rebecca discovered that what Mogot was tracking was not some evil spirit, but a living person.
"Milo?"
