Chapter 1348 Lost
Bimoyer and Ians came back with the relics smoothly, and there were not as many things as he imagined. It was just a half-meter-long box with a wooden seal and a metal edge. It's locked, so I don't know what's inside the box. I just know that it's neither light nor heavy.
Bimoye was not interested in other people's relics, and Ba Naoqian didn't want to see it, so he stuffed it into the only space treasure he had for safekeeping.
At this time, the more heavily poisoned people in the team are still not fully operational, so we can only delay it for one more day. Irina looked at Susan and said: "The situation last night was too scary. Fortunately, everyone is fine. But the thought of being swallowed by those toads... eh, it's uncomfortable to think about it."
Su Shan covered her mouth and quickly waved to her: "Stop talking, I feel like vomiting again when you say it."
A companion sitting next to him said: "Actually, those huge mountain frogs last night were nothing at all. It was just that it happened suddenly, and I couldn't stand the thought of the leprosy on the toads. If I had to fight hard, I wouldn't even want to do it." Do it."
Another person came over and said: "We are here to earn tasks. Unnecessary fighting should be avoided as much as possible to reduce casualties. It can be seen from this that you cannot be careless at all in the Warcraft Forest, otherwise this time it will be a giant mountain frog, and you will not know what it will be next time.”
The poison of the giant mountain frog is not only poisonous. There is nothing other than swelling and pain. After using antidote for a day to clear away the toxins, although the poisoned person is not completely recovered, the poison wounds have already become scarred, and it is no longer a serious problem to move. Ba Naogan didn't want to delay any longer and hurried on to Oak Ridge.
As soon as they arrived at Oak Ridge, they realized something was wrong.
"What's going on?" Before entering the camp, someone was already exclaiming just looking at it from a distance.
Ba Naogan's mind was shocked, and he rushed up the mountain in three steps and two steps at a time. He saw that their camp was in a mess, with many things scattered on the ground that were too late to clean up, and one of their companions All gone.
Everyone's face turned pale when they saw this situation. They all stared at the situation in front of them very seriously. They didn't know if they were frightened, but no one spoke.
At this time, Ians, who was still an outsider, woke up first: "There are traces of fighting but no bodies around, indicating that everyone retreated safely. It seems that they were attacked and had to abandon the camp. "
After saying this, Ba Naoqian came back to his senses in his buzzing mind: "Yes, yes, Ian is right, they must have been in danger, so they evacuated here. Everyone, please calm down and don't panic."
"Bimoyer, what are you doing there? " Only then did Luo realize that Bimoye had run ahead at some point and was half-kneeling on the ground to check something.
Bimoye said: "Come and take a look, there are a lot of strange corpses here."
"Corpse~!?" A dozen people ran over quickly and saw the hillside turning to the northwest. , there were strange insect corpses everywhere, and there were hundreds of them spread out on the ground.
"What is this?"
It is not certain that these things are insect corpses, but they look more like scorpions in shape and have insect shells. But in addition, it also has a pair of ugly fleshy wings, like plucked bird wings, a mouth like a human skull, and a tail that is similar to a scorpion's hook, but it is bifurcated and bent at the end. It's two snake heads.
This insect-like but not insect-like thing is extremely ugly and varies in size, but the smallest one is as big as an adult's open palm, and the larger one is as big as a porcelain plate. None of the dozen or so people here recognized what kind of creature it was.
In addition to these corpses, the surrounding oak trees showed signs of being eaten and damaged. It was self-evident that Emmason and Illusionist left after being attacked by this monster.
"Looking at the traces, your people retreated to the northwest." Ians looked at Banaogan and said: "This is not the direction to exit the Warcraft Forest."
Things have happened There is nothing we can do now. It is impossible for Ba Nao Gan to abandon the team and go alone. The man who led more than a dozen people out of the forest said: "They must not have left for more than two days. If we go after them, we will definitely find them."
After the rainy day passed, the weather became increasingly sunny and warm. It is spread all over the lush green forest, glowing with vitality.
Ba Naogan led this group of people and chased for two days based on the clues of the traces, but they never found other people. In the end, they could not even find any traces.
Susan looked at the leader standing on the top of the mountain and looking around silently. She walked over and said, "Captain, don't worry too much. They have more people than us and they must be safer than us."
This is a sentence To be relieved, in some places it is indeed safer with more people, but this is not necessarily the case in the Warcraft Forest. Ba Naoqian forced a smile: "Emmason is a good player, and the Illusionist is more powerful, so I am more worried about our team. Searching blindly is not an option. Sooner or later, we will also fall into a dangerous situation. We We can’t continue to pursue it like this.”
“Captain, you mean...” Some people thought that the commander didn’t want to look for it anymore, so they hurriedly said, “I think. They may be not far away, but we can't see each other. If we look for two more days, we will definitely find them."
Ba Naogan said: "You misunderstood, I, Ba Naogan, will never do anything. They will abandon their companions. Now that we are separated from them, I am thinking that they will definitely look for us as soon as they are safe, so they may return to their original place."
"This is very possible." Someone among the companions said: "Captain, what are we waiting for? Let's go back quickly. Go to Oak Ridge and Toad Mountain, maybe we can meet them."
Ba Naogan nodded: "Let's go back."
Everyone hurried back with frustration and a glimmer of hope. There was no other way. The traces were broken. Now we can only hope that Ai Mason had the same idea as them.
However, disappointment befell them again. They returned to Oak Ridge and waited for a few days, but never saw the Illusionist and Emmason leading anyone to come to them. Later, they went to the place where the relics were collected, but they did not meet their lost companions. Instead, walking back and forth caused them to encounter some hunting beasts, which triggered many unnecessary battles.
Five days have passed like this, and Ba Naogan and everyone have completely lost the idea of meeting Emmason and the others in Oak Ridge. At this time, someone suggested: "Have they already left the forest? Maybe they were thinking that they were separated from us. We would wait for them outside, so they also went out."
This idea is not new in everyone's mind, but has always been there, and it is only now that it is spoken out.
Ba Naogan shook his head and said, "No." But after he finished speaking, he hesitated again. Really not?
For a team leader, the most dangerous thing is to begin to doubt your own judgment. Originally, Ba Naogan had reason to believe that Emmason would not leave the Warcraft Forest without joining them, but now he was not sure either.
Everyone looked at Ba Naoqian, but Ba Naoqian couldn't make up his mind for a moment. He knew that if he went out without seeing Emmason and the others, it would not be so easy to come in again. At least everyone will be hesitant to risk coming in again. Even though they also want their companions to be safe and sound, they will also make excuses for themselves, saying that they might come out if they wait a little longer.
On the contrary, if Emmason has really left the Warcraft Forest with his people, will they have to wait endlessly?
Ians saw Ba Naoqian's hesitation and said: "I don't think they will abandon us. If they have already gone out and don't meet us outside, they will definitely come in again to look for us. So we can't go out."
Bemoyer looked at Ians, this is exactly what he wanted to say.
After listening to Ians's words, Ba Naogan returned to his original point of view: "They can't leave, they must still be looking for us." He regained his composure and said: "We have come a long way. We came from Moyue, not because we were afraid of the slightest difficulty. It had only been a few days, and if we really went back in such a disheartened state, even if we did. If others don't laugh at us, we can't forgive ourselves, let alone abandoning our companions. No matter what, we can't give up easily. No matter what the situation is, now is not the time for us to leave the Warcraft Forest."
< br>A companion said: "But we have no clues."
"There are no clues. We can only believe in them," Ba Nao said: "Although we are a newly merged mercenary group, every member of the group is a partner with whom we have fought bloody battles. At this time, we can only believe in them, and we also believe in them. Ourselves. And don't forget what our mission here is? They will be anxious if they can't find us, but if they really look for it, If they don't arrive, will they continue the mission while still looking for us? I think we came out with high morale, and with such self-esteem, they will never allow themselves to escape in embarrassment, so if we continue to find them, we will finish it. For the rest of the mercenary mission, we will look for them. As long as our hearts are the same, we will definitely see them again.”
Ba Naoqian's words are very contagious. After all, everyone came to the forbidden land of Warcraft with great ambitions. Although the initial setbacks have worn away their energy, it does not mean that they have completely reduced themselves to Even though they are cowards, their hearts are still unwilling.
"Captain, we will do whatever you say. I believe you."
"Me too."
"I believe the deputy commander and the others are still here They tried so hard to find us, I don’t think they would have failed without finding us. "Leaving."
Everyone looked at Ba Nao Gan firmly, and Ba Nao Gan also regained his confidence: "As long as I have you, there will be no failure. Everyone, follow me and start our future." Complete the mercenary mission.”
