Chapter 1048 Searching (two chapters in one)


Deep in the endless wilderness, there is an area of ​​rugged rocks.

This area is filled with white fog all year round. Once you enter it, it is easy to lose your way and become trapped in it.

"Snoring..."

Suddenly, the sound of snoring sounded, and the diffuse white mist stirred.

“Chirp…”

The sound of birdsong appeared every day. A huge turtledove with bright feathers and emitting psychic fluctuations flew quickly in the air, making a crisp cry from time to time.

Not long after, the turtle dove descended from the sky and landed outside the rugged area. It looked at the white mist in front of it and called out.

"Chirp..."

The loud snoring stopped, followed by a deep beast's roar.

"Roar..."

When the turtledove heard the deep roar of the beast, he quickly lowered his head in a very respectful manner.

"How did things go?"

"Boss, I let my subordinates harass me for several days, and the effect so far is so-so."

"... "The strange beast in the white mist was silent for a few seconds and said, "Send some more people."

"Yes." Ikaruga nodded quickly.

The strange beast in the white mist stopped talking, and the turtle dove did not leave immediately.

"What else can you do?"

"Boss, I don't understand why you are doing this..."

The strange beast in the white mist did not explain much. He said to his younger brother, "Just follow my instructions. After a while, you will know why I asked you to do this."

"Yes." Ikaruga asked no more questions, then turned and left. .

After flying into the sky, it quickly flapped its wings and flew away at a faster speed.

Many years ago, a war broke out between the Rongcheng Superpower Management Bureau and the alien beasts in the wilderness.

At that time, the human side won a complete victory, and many strange beasts in the wilderness were killed or seriously injured.

The strange beast hidden in the white mist in front of me is a survivor of that war. After being seriously injured, it hid deep in the wilderness to recuperate.

After sleeping for so many years, the injuries on my body have healed to some extent, and I just woke up not long ago.

It will be some time before this powerful alien beast is completely healed from its injuries.

However, his heart was filled with hatred and he couldn't wait to take revenge.

Some methods were used in advance, and the alien beast brothers under his hands also started to perform some small actions according to its instructions.

The strange beast in the white mist murmured to itself after the younger brother left.

"Damn humans, I have not forgotten the grudges of the past. Just wait for me..."

After the murmur disappeared, the snoring sounded again, the white mist continued to stir, and the terrifying spiritual energy fluctuations enveloped a large area, making some surrounding creatures afraid to approach this place.

“Chirp…”

The clear chirping of birds sounded in the sky, and the turtle doves that had finished reporting their work were flying leisurely in the sky.

There is a small stream ahead. The water is very clear. Looking down from a high altitude to the ground, the sparkling water surface is so bright that it is difficult to look directly at it.

The turtle dove began to lower its flight altitude, and finally landed smoothly on the grass beside the stream.

There are many small fish in the creek, more than ten centimeters long.

These small fish are very lively and swim happily in the clear stream.

The turtle dove is very fast. It jumped into the stream, stuck its head into the water, and caught the frightened fish in one fell swoop.

“This fish is so delicious.”

"I've been catching fish a bit frequently recently, and the number of fish has dropped by half. I have to take it easy next time..."

The turtle dove knew that he couldn't catch all the fish, so he thought about it in his mind and decided to go to other places in the next few days. Catch fish to eat.

"Rust, rustle..."

The grass in the distance swayed, and the lush branches and leaves collided with each other, making a noisy sound.

The turtle dove heard the movement and turned its head to look at the swaying grass.

The next second, a fat hedgehog rolled out of the grass and quickly rolled towards the stream.

"Bang."

There was a big rock by the creek. The huddled hedgehog had no time to brake and hit the big rock directly.

“Oops!”

The hedgehog exclaimed as his head was a little dizzy after being hit. After the dizziness disappeared, he immediately noticed that someone was staring at him, so he raised his head and looked up. .

The turtle dove had already come ashore from the creek. It looked at its somewhat stupid subordinates and had the urge to cover its face.

The two sides looked at each other, and the scene was quiet.

Ikaruga saw his stupid subordinates looking at him blankly, and his dissatisfaction became more and more high. He suppressed his anger and said.

"Are you mute?"

"Uh..." The hedgehog came to his senses and quickly reported to his immediate superior.

"Sir, all the men I sent out this morning have lost contact."

"Huh?" Ikaruga was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then asked in a serious tone, "Are they all dead?"

"This is not clear. According to the initial plan, I let them Roaring loudly on the edge of the safe zone, when the time is up, leave immediately to meet me.

I waited for a long time at the agreed place, but those guys didn't show up. There is no way to know whether they are alive. It's death." The hedgehog explained the situation carefully.

"This..." Ikaruga's face became more and more serious, and he speculated in his mind that those men who had not returned for a long time were already dead.

Because this kind of thing has never happened in the past, even if it is delayed due to some things, not a single subordinate will return.

As for who did it, you will know after a little thought.

It is so close to the safe zone, and if we run nearby and roar every day, humans will definitely take action.

Ikaruga gave the order to his men to do this. He had considered in advance that something like this would happen one day, so he quickly adjusted his mood.

“Thank you for your hard work these days.”

"It's not hard work. It's my honor to work for you, sir." The hedgehog flattered.

"Next, you don't need to arrange people to do this for the time being."

"Okay."

The hedgehog heard that there is no need to arrange people to go near the safe area. Go roaring, feeling extremely happy.

After all, its strength is average, and the people under its command are worse.

It would be extremely dangerous to let the people under my command do things near the safe zone. It would be best not to do this task now.

However, the hedgehog's mood had not improved for half a minute when he heard the turtle dove say again.

"Go to a place with me tomorrow."

"Uh..." The hedgehog trembled when he heard this, and whispered, "Sir, that place is very dangerous!"

"Do you know that place?" Ikaruga looked at his men in surprise.

"I heard it mentioned by a friend. He told me that the place is very strange. If you are not careful, you may never come back..." The hedgehog said with lingering fear, thinking of his friend's frightened expression.

"..." Ikaruga remained silent, looking at his men until the men lowered their heads, then he spoke slowly.

"Follow me, I will keep you safe, you don't have to worry too much."

"Yes." Seeing that his immediate boss had made up his mind, the hedgehog did not dare to have any objections. "Do you have anything else to report?" Ikaruga asked.

"No more," said the hedgehog.

"Okay, that's it for now. You go back and have a good rest. Come see me early tomorrow." The turtle dove waved its wings.

The hedgehog turned and left, huddled up, rolled towards the grass in the distance, and disappeared after a while.

The discussion stopped and became very quiet. Ikaruga looked up at the blue sky, his thoughts quickly diverging.

"I will go treasure hunting in that dangerous place tomorrow. If I can find the spiritual fruit that improves my cultivation, it will not be a problem for me to break through to a higher realm..."

…………

The sun hangs high in the sky, pouring golden light on the ground.

A figure flew from the wilderness and quickly approached the safe zone.

Lin Li saw the flat road in the distance, then lowered his flight altitude, and finally landed on a big rock.

Because you will reach the safe zone a little further away. If you continue to fly in the sky, it will easily attract attention.

Lin Li always kept a low profile and didn't want to be noticed, so he stopped flying when he was some distance away from the safe zone.

He landed on the big rock, jumped down, stepped on the grass, and quickly ran to the safety zone in the distance.

When I arrived in this area previously, I met no one around.

After finishing what Liu Jialin asked me to do, it was almost noon, and I saw some of my colleagues.

These exotic beast hunters do not act alone. At least three people form a team to hunt on the edge of the safe zone.

"There's someone there." A hunter wearing sunglasses looked at Lin Li and shouted to his companions.

“Why is he alone?”

“If you dare to hunt alone in the wilderness, you must be either a newcomer or a powerful veteran.”

“ This person looks very young, younger than me. He cannot be a powerful veteran."

Several beast hunters looked at Lin Li and whispered, concluding in a few words that the young Lin Li was a newcomer. .

Lin Li could faintly hear the discussions among his peers.

He ignored it and walked forward faster. After a while, he disappeared.

…………

“Rust, rustle…”

The grass shook for a while, and as soon as the car stopped, the exotic beast hunter who got out of the car was startled. Draw your weapon immediately.

Lin Li raised his hand to push aside the weeds in front of him and walked out. He saw several people holding weapons and staring at him, looking at each other with slight doubts.

“It turns out it’s not a strange beast.”

“Huh...it’s a false alarm!”

“Everyone, hurry up!”

These strange beasts The beast hunter nodded to Lin Li, then put away his weapons, took out backpacks from the trunk, put them on his back, passed Lin Li, and stepped into the wilderness.

Lin Li looked at these people and muttered, "They are still so nervous in the safe zone. These people must have just become exotic beast hunters."

Withdrawing his gaze, he looked towards the road ahead.

The silver-white van parked under the big tree on the roadside, with some dry leaves falling on the van.

After Lin Li got in the car, he fastened his seat belt and immediately started the car and returned to the city.

There was no traffic jam on the way home.

Entering the city, I saw many off-road vehicles driving towards the edge of the safety zone.

Lin Li couldn't help but wonder, "It's strange, at this time, why are there so many exotic beast hunters on the road?"

Alien beast hunters basically hunt exotic beasts in the wilderness. Get up early in the morning, pack your things, and set out to meet your teammates, and then go into the wilderness together to look for prey.

It is now approaching noon. Logically speaking, there should not be so many exotic beast hunters on the road.

Lin Li thought for a moment and had no clue. At this time, his stomach made a growl.

"Gululu..."

The feeling of hunger surged like a tide, and the uncomfortable feeling made people frown.

Lin Li can know the approximate time now without looking at his phone.

There is no need to think about other things, you have to quickly find a cafeteria to cook.

The silver-white van changed its direction, turned at the intersection, and then quickly increased its speed.

After a while, a lively street appeared in front of us.

There are many restaurants on this street, most of which are buffets.

The reason why so many restaurants operate in a buffet style is because there are many companies nearby, and most of them are manual workers.

Every time for lunch, migrant workers with big appetites come to this place to eat, and they will give priority to the buffet restaurant.

Lin Li parked the car on the side of the road, opened the door and got out, and quickly visited several restaurants in this eating place.

After some comparison, he finally chose a cafeteria where noodles could be eaten openly.

After paying, Lin Li took the dinner plate and served himself five portions of noodles.

The first portion was fried noodles. Lin Li picked up the chopsticks and stuffed the mixed fried noodles into his mouth.

In just two minutes, he finished the large bowl of fried noodles.

After a bowl of fried noodles, the hunger in my stomach only disappeared a little.

Lin Li continued to pick up the second bowl of noodles, which was a bowl of braised beef noodles. Because the noodles were a bit hot from the soup, Lin Li ate more slowly, and it took him nearly four minutes to finish them.

After a while, all five bowls of noodles were wiped out, and Lin Li went to the dining area to get noodles.

This time he did not bring soup noodles, but came back with several portions of noodles.

There are also some free cold dishes in the store, so I took a few portions by the way.

Lin Li transformed into a rice cook, bowl after bowl of noodles went into his mouth and disappeared quickly.

The other customers at the same table stared at Lin Li who was eating noodles quickly.

I haven’t finished one bowl of noodles yet, but I see others have already eaten nearly ten bowls of noodles. Anyone who sees this scene will be shocked.

“Hiccup.”

Lin Li didn’t count how many bowls of noodles he had eaten. After more than forty minutes of eating, he was finally full and couldn’t help but burp.

There were many customers around who looked at him in disbelief, but Lin Li didn't care about their gazes.

Instead, the restaurant owner stared at him, making him feel a little embarrassed.

Lin Li stood up and left the restaurant, he said to himself.

"How about I pay more to the store next time for dinner?"

After leaving the place to eat and returning to the car, Lin Li did not drive home immediately, but took some money from his pocket. He took out his cell phone and opened the Alien Hunters Forum.

On the way back, he met many exotic beast hunters heading into the wilderness. He was completely confused about this. Now that he is free, he should be able to find some clues through the forum.

"Huh?"

As soon as he entered the Alien Hunters Forum, Lin Li saw several popular posts.

He clicked on the post with the most replies and browsed it quickly.

A few minutes later, Lin Li had a look of realization on his face.

“It turns out that so many colleagues went to the wilderness on the outskirts of the Southern District to find treasures...”
