Chapter 426: Killing a bear with bare hands
"Prioritizing the search for victims actually has another purpose." Ancier continued.
“Another purpose?”
“The airship was shot down by Lanlong. Some of the information that the survivors paid attention to was not given time to feed back to the guild. Is it reasonable?< br>
It is very possible that they made some additional discoveries during the time they were hiding around, right?
All in all, as long as the victims are found, there is a high probability that more information will be obtained, which is much more efficient than us running around in Lanlong's lair like headless flies.
In the end, the most important thing is the issue of 'bringing the news back'. As Hayata just said, if the information is discovered but the person dies, what is the difference between that and not discovering it? "
Gordon picked up a branch, broke it off and threw it into the bonfire, "Then let's do this. After setting off tomorrow, we will go straight to the south area of the main peak of Lingfeng and use the cover of the mountain to search for the victims.
If the victim has died and no more useful information can be obtained, we will look for a suitable observation point to conduct concealed, long-term, and long-distance observations, and we should be able to collect some intelligence. ”
Alva was short and walked silently but quickly.
Suddenly, he heard some noise, so he immediately lay down and remained motionless.
Different from the "bush camouflage" that was inconvenient for movement and a little silly a few days ago, under the guidance of the professor, the practicality of his current camouflage has been improved by several levels.
It was a khaki cloak, modified from the canvas Alva brought back from the wreckage of the airship.
Dyeed with mud and plant juice, wrapped around the body, it looks like a rock covered with moss.
Similar stones are very common around here, and as long as they remain still, they won't look out of place.
The movement disappeared, probably just some kind of small animal passing by.
Alva got up and continued moving forward. His goal for this trip was the berries in the forest.
There is still some food left in the airship wreckage, but the professor said that emergency food is critical in the wilderness, so he must look for other alternative foods.
In fact, he hopes to find some medicinal herbs more than food.
This magical plant is the main raw material for making recovery medicine. Eating it directly can also have a good healing effect. If you can find more of it, maybe the professor's injury can be slowly healed.
Of course he knows what medicinal herbs look like, but the Lingfeng Mountains is a strange place. It is obviously rich in natural resources, but not even a single medicinal herb can be found.
I don’t know if it’s bad luck or some other reason.
Alva thought sadly in his heart.
Maybe it’s because of the abundant rain? There were a lot of berries in the forest, and Alva also collected a lot of mushrooms and pine cones, all of which were confirmed to be edible.
He put all these into the book bag beside him.
Just as he was about to return, a buzzing sound reached his ears.
“Bees?”
Alva looked around and soon found a huge beehive on the branch of a big tree.
“Honey.”
Alva licked his lips.
He didn't want to cause trouble, but honey rich in nutrients was the best nutrition and might make the professor feel more energetic.
By the way, how do you get honey? He hasn't tried it? If you start directly, you will be bitten to death by bees. What about smoke? But will the smoke column attract Lanlong here?
While Alva was hesitating, deep in the forest, a bloated figure staggered towards him.
He trembled all over and his limbs became stiff.
Green Bear Beast.
What to do.
Alva forced himself to calm down. Green Bearmon had poor eyesight but a keen sense of smell. It probably hadn’t noticed him yet at this distance. It would be easy to smell him out if he hid. Now was the best time to evacuate. What a great opportunity!
He began to back away slowly.
“Crack.”
With a crisp sound, half a dry pine cone was stepped on and crushed.
Alva and Blue Bearmon paused at the same time.
It’s over.
Alva's face turned pale. He subconsciously wanted to turn around and run away, but suddenly he remembered that the green bear beast could run in the forest much faster than humans.
You can't escape by running, and you can't show your cowardice. Green Bear Beast is not a high-level predator, and there are even records of ordinary people scaring it away.
He suppressed his fear and tried to open his hands to make himself appear larger.
Then he yelled at the green bear beast that was rushing towards him.
“Ahhhh——!”
“Ouch!”
Blue Bearmon felt offended and rushed faster.
At this time, Alva had no choice but to turn around and run wildly. He couldn't help shouting as if he was giving up on himself, "Didn't I say I could scare you away? Why weren't you scared at all?" ”
He kept turning left and right between the big trees, trying to distance himself in this way.
Unfortunately, the effect is not good. With the size of Green Bear Beast, it is not easily disturbed by the trees, and the distance between the two is still shortening.
Just when he was about to be overtaken by the green bear beast, a figure rushed towards him and blocked the giant green bear.
Perhaps because the distance was too close and inconvenient, or perhaps because he felt it was unnecessary, the visitor did not draw his weapon, but directly hit the iron mountain with his shoulder, hitting the green bear beast in the face.
The protruding sharp teeth on the shoulder armor smashed into the green bear beast's flesh and blood, and it howled miserably and stopped.
However, the visitor did not intend to let it go so easily.
He stretched out his arms and clamped the Green Bear beast's neck, then clenched his fists and punched the Green Bear beast's head and face several times until the Green Bear beast's howling became louder. Cheng whimpered and then let go of his hand.
Green Bear Beast ran away quickly with its short tail between its legs.
Alva stared at this scene blankly, his mind a little confused.
This man just beat the Green Bear Beast away with his fist?
"Huh--, it's a bit cool."
The man took off his helmet with his blood-stained gauntlets, revealing a face that was quite familiar to Alva.
"Brother Gordon?"
"It's really you, Alva." Gordon didn't say anything like "what a coincidence".
It would be better to say that he had some guesses about the identity of the airship victims from the beginning - as witnesses of the Lan Long incident that year, the professor and Alva were the most suitable ones to detect the Lan Long. Candidate.
Hayata, Ansir Pork Chop and the others also ran over.
"Is everything okay, meow? Are you injured, meow?" Xianglan ran to Alva's side and patted him.
"I, I'm fine."
Alva, who escaped death again, was still trembling when he spoke, his mind was a little knotted, and he stammered a question that was somewhat inappropriate. , "So, why use fists?"
"Uh" Gordon gestured with his arms, trying to explain, "It's just, do you understand the distance? At that distance, it's not very convenient to pull out the sword. .”
"Don't listen to his nonsense, meow."
Pork Chop exposed Gordon's lies mercilessly, "You can understand that he has some problems with his brain recently, and he needs to adapt for a while."
"Senior Gordon, you are so messy." Hayata couldn't help but complain.
"Okay, now is not the time to talk about this." Gordon felt a little guilty and quickly changed the subject, "This is the lair of Lanlong, and it can't be said to be safe.
Alva, there is Is there a suitable hiding place? We need to hide first and then discuss what to do next.”
"Yes! The professor and I found a good place, come with me!" (End of Chapter)
