Chapter 62: Jungle Exploration
“Before that, although the plants near Kola Village were growing very fast, they were just weeds and crops. It was different that night.”
< br>“Countless saplings broke out of the ground and grew more than one meter tall in one night, even in the homes of villagers in Kola Village.”
“We felt something was wrong. After discovering it, we hurriedly removed the saplings. All the villagers in La Village were moved out."
"The trees kept growing taller, and the next day they became the forest they are today."
"We also thought about going in to check and started clearing the trees around the forest, but no matter how many we cut down, they were back to their original state the next day. We tried several times to no avail."
"We also I don’t dare to go directly into the forest, so I can only stay around the forest to prevent irrelevant people from entering, and wait for the kingdom’s support.”
Child described everything that happened in the past few days. Things are said.
Yasen frowned and asked:
"The intelligence said that undead creatures have appeared. Do you know the situation?"
Child shuddered and said nervously:
"The night we moved the villagers, after we all left the forest, we counted the number of people and found that four people were missing. We saw it was too dark, so we didn't dare "Look back."
"At that time, we organized the villagers to rest outside the forest and prepared to go to the Viscount's castle early the next morning. However, in the middle of the night, I heard something moving in the forest. When I went over to look, I saw several bodies. Bones were crawling inside!”
“One of the bones turned to look at me!”
“My companions and I were shocked and quickly told everyone to move away. Rest somewhere and never dare to go near the forest again.”
"But I didn't see those things leaving the forest. In the next few days, I came to check during the day and night, and I didn't find those things again. I also sent the information to the master."
"I saw it too. When we arrived, I was keeping vigil with Captain Child. Those skeletons were obviously human bones, and there were still will-o'-the-wisps on the sides!"
Now a soldier next to Child also answered. , confirmed that it was not Childe’s hallucination alone.
"Skeleton?"
Yasen looked at Li Si with questioning eyes.
Li Si understood, nodded and said:
"If it is true, it may be a newly transformed skeleton soldier, which poses no threat."
Skeleton soldiers are undead creatures whose bodies are made entirely of bones. , can be said to be the lowest and most common undead creature.
But the appearance of skeleton soldiers also proves that something is indeed wrong with this forest.
In other words, haven’t any threatening undead creatures been discovered yet?
Yassen pondered in his mind and began to consider which direction he should start exploring this strange forest.
Elena suddenly asked Childe:
"You said you have cleared this forest before. Are the trees here different from other places?"
< br>Child was stunned for a moment, recalled it, and said uncertainly:
“We really didn’t pay attention to this at the time, but it should be no different from the trees in other places. We all cut down the wood. When the firewood burned.”
Elena nodded and said nothing.
Yasen also made a decision at this time. Since we are all here, we probably won’t get any valuable information if we don’t go in and explore.
Said to Childe:
"Let's go into the forest to see what's going on. The hard workers on the carriage can help take care of it."
"Okay, okay."
Childe quickly agreed. He was still a little afraid to enter the forest, but there was no problem in taking care of the carriage outside the forest.
Yasen turned around, pulled Li Si, Yaer and others aside, and began to play the role of team nanny:
"We still have to go into the forest to take a look, at least we can get Cora Explore the village.”
“This time when we enter the forest, Lunbosi and I take turns to open the way. Elena is responsible for observing the surroundings. Li Si and Yaer are in the middle of the team, paying attention to support.”
Everyone nodded, Yasen’s arrangements have always been reassuring.
Then Li Si and others checked the items and equipment they carried with them again, and prepared to enter this strange forest. Yasen walked in the front. This time he was wearing a bright white stainless steel armor, exuding a faint holy light. He should have been blessed by the Church of Dawn.
With a flash of cold light from the long sword in his hand, the vines clinging to the forest were cut open, and gradually a road leading deep into the forest was cleared.
Li Si and others maintained their formation and gradually advanced into the depths of the forest. The deeper they went, the denser the trees became, and the blue sky could no longer be seen above their heads.
After maintaining the speed and advancing deep into the forest for an hour, Li Si and others could only advance less than two kilometers.
Yasen waved his hand to make some corrections on the spot, sheathed the long sword, and said:
"Have you discovered anything?"
"It's too quiet."
< br>Li Si said while placing [Magic Warning] around.
“Yes.” Elena nodded in agreement and said:
"I can't hear the chirping of insects and birds at all, not at all. I observed carefully along the way."
"There is indeed a problem."
Yasen nodded in agreement, and he also discovered solved this problem.
“Furthermore, although the vitality of this area has overflowed, but.”
Elena gently picked a bud from the big tree nearby and said:< br>
"It feels a little lifeless."
The elf, who has always been close to nature, said with some uncertainty.
According to common sense, lifelessness and vitality are two completely unrelated words, but Li Si felt that it was very appropriate to describe the forest in front of him.
And Li Si always felt that something was familiar, but he was very sure that he had never been here before.
Is there this place in the previous game?
It shouldn’t be. As the liver king of the game, it’s impossible for me not to remember it?
Just as Li Si was banging his head and recalling where he had missed something, others made new discoveries.
This time it was Ya'er who discovered the problem. Although Ya'er was usually a little noisy, she was still very serious when performing the commissioned tasks. It was at this time that Li Si could see a bit of the future in her. Style.
Ya'er used her sword to peel away the weeds under her feet, revealing the land underneath.
Logically speaking, in the forest, because the tall trees block the sunlight, there are rarely such dense weeds under the trees.
But this place was different, which made Ya'er vaguely aware that something was wrong, so she cleared a clearing.
Under the dense forest, it stands to reason that there should be fertile and moist land.
But the land under the feet of Li Si and others is different. It is dry and barren. The land that should have been dark brown has now turned yellow and lost its vitality.
Ya'er swung her sword and dug down another meter, and found that the further down she went, the poorer the soil became.
“It seems that the reason why this forest is so vital is that all the life in this land has been extracted.”
Elena squatted down, grabbed a handful of sandy soil and said.
Li Si also touched it and frowned as if he noticed something.
Something is wrong!
It’s a bit late, please read it, dear readers
