"Huh..."
My breathing was very rapid, my forehead was covered with sweat, and the clothes on my body were stained red in many places by the blood oozing from the wounds.
The injured alien hunter endured the pain on his body, gritted his teeth and persisted, returning to the safe zone without stopping.
"Old Qi, there is a safe zone ahead. We are almost safe. There is no need to rush." A tired exotic beast hunter said.
The exotic beast hunter known as Lao Qi is a middle-aged man. His full name is Qi Zhipeng. Hearing what his companion said, he immediately slowed down.
Seeing this, the others slowed down.
At this moment, several people appeared in front of the team, and they quickly walked towards Qi Zhipeng and his party.
"Hello." Xiang Zhiqiang, a burly man, greeted Qi Zhipeng and his party, and asked enthusiastically, "Are you short of medicine? We have brought a lot, and we can give you some."
< br>Qi Zhipeng glanced at his injured companion and nodded to Xiang Zhiqiang.
The short-haired girl walked forward quickly. She took off her backpack, opened the zipper, and took out many healing medicines.
"Thank you." Qi Zhipeng thanked him for receiving the medicine, and then handed it to his companions for them to use now.
For external application or internal use, after the injured alien hunter took the medicine, his complexion improved significantly, and his pale face became more colorful.
“Why are you so injured?” Xiang Zhiqiang asked curiously.
"Alas..." Qi Zhipeng first sighed, and then recounted what happened half an hour ago.
It turns out that their team came to the wilderness on the outskirts of the Southern District to hunt for treasure.
As a result, before reaching the place where the abnormality occurred, an extremely ferocious beast was encountered on the road.
After a fierce battle, although the powerful alien beasts were repelled, all members of the team were injured and were unable to continue searching for treasures where the abnormality occurred.
Subsequently, Qi Zhipeng and his party terminated their treasure hunting plan and began to return to the safe zone.
Sometimes when people are unlucky, they will choke on drinking water. On the way back to the safe zone, Qi Zhipeng and his party seemed to be plagued by bad luck, and were attacked by strange beasts one after another.
The battles continued one after another, and the situation did not change until all the healing medicines carried by Zhong Neng were used up.
In order to return to the safe zone as soon as possible, Qi Zhipeng and his companions moved forward at full speed with all their strength, and did not stop until they met Xiang Zhiqiang and his party.
“Your luck is really bad.” Xiang Zhiqiang couldn’t help but sigh after listening to the other party’s story.
"Yes!" Qi Zhipeng nodded in agreement, and then complained, "Maybe it's because I didn't read the almanac when I went out today! I have to pay more attention in the future..."
Then The two sides chatted for a while, and Xiang Zhiqiang obtained a lot of useful information.
"I wish you success in your treasure hunt. We have to go to the hospital first, so let's leave first." Qi Zhipeng said goodbye and led his companions to quickly approach the safe zone.
Xiang Zhiqiang and his party watched these injured colleagues leave. When the other party's figure disappeared into the dense grass, he said to the people around him.
"It seems that it is much more difficult than expected for us to reach the place where the abnormality occurred..."
The short-haired girl said with a smile, "Our overall strength is more They are strong and want to reach the place where something abnormal happened. The place is not difficult, and we won’t return without success like them.”
“You’re right, not to mention that our overall strength is better than theirs, let’s just say that we are lucky.” Others. The exotic beast hunters echoed, without any expression of worry on their faces.
Seeing the high morale of his companions, Xiang Zhiqiang's serious expression softened a lot and smiled, "Thanks to them, we can avoid the places where they are attacked by strange beasts."
The girl with short hair asked, "Captain, can we set off now?"
Xiang Zhiqiang said "hmm" and then walked at the front of the team.
Other alien hunters quickly followed, and not long after, the team of alien hunters advanced several kilometers and entered a leafy forest, and soon disappeared.
…………
“Swish, rustle...”
The dense grass shook violently, and injured alien hunters walked out of the grass one by one.
When these people saw the flat road in front of them, their tense nerves completely relaxed.
“We are finally back.”
“Those hateful beasts that attacked us are waiting. When we heal our injuries, we must make them look good...”
Just as Qi Zhipeng and his party were releasing their pressure, two police cars from the Superpower Management Bureau appeared at the end of the road.
"Crack."
The car stopped on the side of the road, and the investigators got out of the car one by one.
There are six people in total, one of whom is a researcher at the Psychic Research Institute.
Wang Jing glanced at the injured alien hunter in the distance, ignored their gazes, and said to the colleagues around him.
“Everyone, check if there is anything missing from what you are carrying.”
After a while, the injured Qi Zhipeng came to Wang Jing who was about to set off.
"What's the matter?"
"If my guess is correct, you are going to the place where the abnormality occurred not long ago."
Wang Jing nodded. , admit it directly, because when you come to the wilderness on the outskirts of the Southern District at this time, you basically go to places where abnormalities occur, and there is no need to keep such things secret.
Qi Zhipeng told Wang Jing the place where they had been attacked by alien beasts before, reminding them to be careful, and then left with his injured teammates and headed to the nearest hospital.
The alien hunter drove the off-road vehicle and disappeared at the end of the road, leaving only Wang Jing and her colleagues at the scene.
“Did you write down all the places the exotic beast hunter mentioned just now?”
“Write them all down.” An investigator made a mark on the paper map, and then answered.
In this era, technology has developed well, and many people have abandoned paper maps and chosen electronic maps with more functions.
However, some places in the wilderness are not friendly to electronic devices. Sometimes you need to use a map. Once there is a problem with the electronic device, the electronic map cannot be used.
In order to avoid encountering this situation, paper maps, which are almost out of the market, have become a must-have item for everyone who goes to the wilderness.
Wang Jing looked at the marked paper map and then led his colleagues into the wilderness.
…………
Time flies by like a fleeting moment.
More than an hour later, Wang Jing and his party, who were deep in the wilderness, stopped.
Then the five investigators spread out and stood guard in different directions.
The researcher from the Psychic Research Institute placed the backpack on the ground, opened the zipper, and took out an exquisite spiritual weapon.
After arranging the spiritual weapon, the researcher immediately mobilized the spiritual energy in his Dantian to activate this exquisite spiritual weapon that had just been developed.
“Buzz.”
Invisible energy fluctuations emanate from the activated spiritual weapon and spread around at an extremely fast speed.
The researcher looked calm, took out a notepad, and recorded the data collected by the spiritual weapon.
Ten minutes later, Wang Jing asked, "The data hasn't been collected yet?"
"It's almost there, wait three more minutes." The researcher said with a smile, and then he saw the spirit New data appears on the device and is quickly recorded.
"Roar..."
Suddenly a beast roared, and all six people present heard it.
The researcher raised his head nervously and looked in the direction of the beast's roar.
After all, he is engaged in scientific research, his strength is average, and he has no combat experience at all, so when he suddenly hears the roar of a beast, he will inevitably feel uneasy and very nervous.
"You continue to collect data and leave the strange beasts to us. Don't worry." Wang Jing said to the researcher.
"Go over there and investigate and see what's going on." "Okay."
The investigator holding the long knife nodded, then broke away from the team and walked quickly to the place where the roar of the beast appeared in the distance.
…………
“Roar…”
A strange beast lay on its side on the ground, making painful cries from time to time.
The investigator holding a long knife hid behind a thick tree, quietly stuck his head out, looked forward, and his eyes fell on the strange beast.
"It turns out that it was hurt and couldn't bear the pain, so it kept roaring."
"Looking at the wounds on its body, it was caused by sharp weapons."
"This strange beast should have been There was a big battle with the alien hunter, but he finally lost and managed to escape."
The investigators made some assumptions in their minds and determined that the alien beast could not pose a threat to their team, so they planned to leave. , go back and report the investigation results to Wang Jing.
However, at this moment, the hair of the investigator hiding behind the big tree stood on end.
"Danger."
The investigator's alarm bells rang in his heart. Without any hesitation, he pounced forward, then quickly turned around to look.
“Bang.”
An extremely fierce and strange beast appeared in the place where it was originally hiding.
This strange beast smashed the big tree with one claw, and then looked at the investigators who dodged the sneak attack in surprise.
The sneak attack just now could be said to be silent. It would be impossible for other hunters to escape if they were attacked by this beast.
“There is actually a strange beast here?” The investigator frowned, and then injected spiritual energy into the long sword in his hand.
The weapon that has absorbed psychic energy is more lethal, and the blade emits a light golden aura.
The injured beast got up from the ground and stared at the waiting investigators for a few seconds, drooling uncontrollably.
The alien beast that attacked the investigator barked a few times at the injured alien beast, and then these two guys started to kill the investigator.
"Roar..."
"Clang..."
The beast's roar was deafening, and the weapon injected with psychic energy collided with the beast's claws, making a crisp sound of metal collision.
With one against two, the investigators are not at a disadvantage yet.
However, as time goes by, once the psychic energy and physical strength are exhausted more than half, the investigator's advantage will quickly disappear.
The two strange beasts fought with the investigators for a moment, with doubts in their eyes.
They can sense that the investigators' spiritual energy and physical strength are rapidly depleting, and they will be able to suppress the investigators before long.
If anyone else had faced this situation, they would have panicked.
So far, the investigator still looks calm and very focused, which makes the two strange beasts very confused.
“Phew.”
A harsh sound broke through the air suddenly.
The two strange beasts heard the sound and ran away. They saw a big stone flying towards them like a cannonball.
"Roar..."
The target of the stone was the injured beast. It was too late to avoid it. After the panicked beast roared, the flying stone hit the target.
I was already injured, but now I was hit by a stone, and my injuries immediately worsened.
A mouthful of blood spurted out from its mouth, and the beast, with several broken bones, fell to the ground and howled.
“Huh...”
The investigator whose breathing rhythm was disrupted finally had time to adjust his condition.
He looked in the direction where the stone appeared, and the next second, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.
“Are you okay?” Wang Jing asked her colleague.
"I'm fine, I'll just rest for a while," the investigator said.
When he was besieged by two strange beasts just now, the reason why he didn't panic at all was because he sent a message for help to Wang Jing.
As soon as Wang Jing arrived at the scene, with her strength, these two strange beasts could not make any waves at all.
The situation was just as the investigator thought. After Wang Jing arrived at the scene, she made sure that her colleagues were not injured, and then started to deal with the two strange beasts.
“Bang.”
After the injured beast's injuries worsened, Wang Jing punched him in the head as soon as he got up from the ground.
The other beast did not expect Wang Jing to be so ferocious, and killed its companion with one punch, which made it tremble with fear.
Then the alien beast no longer thought about continuing to fight, and quickly turned around and ran away.
Wang Jing did not let go of the escaping alien beast. She quickly caught up with him, waved her fist, and blasted the escaping alien beast with four or five punches.
"Captain, have the data been collected?" The investigator saw the battle was over and stepped forward to ask.
"It's been collected. Everyone is waiting for you to come back and set off." Wang Jing said with a smile, and then she and her colleagues returned to the others.
The group of people set out again. The deeper they went into the wilderness and closer to their destination, the more cautious they became, and their speed involuntarily slowed down.
…………
“Chirping…”
Noisy birdsong appeared in the sky. Wang Jing and her colleagues who were on their way stopped and raised their heads. Start looking.
They found that there were many birds flying in circles in the sky. This strange sight was confusing.
The researcher seemed to have thought of something and frowned.
Wang Jing asked the researcher, "Is there something wrong here?"
The researcher responded, "It needs to be verified."
After saying that, he took the bag out of his backpack Take out a small compass.
"It's true."
Others looked at the researcher after hearing this, and then they heard the researcher say that there was a problem with the magnetic field in this place.
Wang Jing took the compass handed over by the researcher. She saw that the compass was not pointing south as usual, but was spinning continuously.
"I heard before that there are some places in the wilderness where the magnetic field is chaotic, but I have never seen it with my own eyes. Today I have experienced it."
"What is the cause of this?" Other investigators looked Looking at the spinning compass, he showed a surprised expression.
"Studying the magnetic field chaos that occurs in some places in the wilderness has always been an important topic of our Psychic Research Institute." The researcher said regretfully, "It is a pity that after so many years, there has been no significant progress."
Wang Jing returned the spinning compass to the researcher and said to everyone.
"The magnetic field in this place is chaotic and the risk factor has increased significantly. I will open the way in front of you. You should be careful."
Then, the group set off again, cautiously navigating this area with chaotic magnetic field. progress.
