Chapter 177: Chapter 177(1/2)
Ivan City in the jungle is full of dangers. Its timeline seems to have been dialed back to the Jurassic Period, and the principle of the weak and the strong is fully reflected.
Perhaps the impression that humans have left on predators is too "weak and incompetent", which gave them the mindset that "humans are easily captured". As a result, when Jis and his party entered the jungle, they were targeted by monsters of all sizes.
.
But they didn't act rashly.
None of the monsters that have survived to this day are stupid. They have eaten nearly 60% of the city's population, and they have also figured out the difference between the awakened, the fallen, and ordinary people.
The former two have excellent meat quality and are full of energy. They will be beaten when they prey on the opponent, and there is also the possibility of being counter-killed. The latter has delicious meat and is easy to obtain, but you must avoid the opponent gathering in groups, otherwise their weapons will be harmful to them.
cause some damages.
In short, it is easier to hunt lone humans, and it is also convenient to prey on a group of less than ten people. If a group of people are all Awakened, then wait for other monsters to test the waters first, and then they can take advantage of the existing ones.
After all, sooner or later some hungry guy gets fed up.
The predator was slowly approaching, and the black snake coiled around Jiang Qining suddenly raised its head and hissed in one direction. Not long after, the other two also raised their heads and pointed elsewhere, as if there were monsters in all directions.
Yu Mingyang, who was walking in the middle of the team, was a little trembling: "Do you feel like you are being watched? But I can't see where they are?"
"Normally, in the jungle you can only rely on wildness and instinct." Lackey walked at the front of the team, holding a branch to push aside the weeds half a man tall. "There are many towns in Ula connected to the forest. If you don't rely on vehicles,
If you travel from one town to another on foot, bicycle or motorcycle, be prepared to encounter hunters."
"If you are lucky, you will only encounter foxes, caracals and lynxes; if you are not lucky, you may encounter black bears, Amur leopards and Ussuri tigers." Lackey whipped away a poisonous purple frog with a branch and continued.
, "When walking through the forest, you have to throw away the idea that 'I am a human being and I am at the top of the food chain.'"
"Abandon all your inertial cognitions, let go of all your wildness to survive, and never ignore the sense of crisis that your instinct brings to you. Only in this way can you survive."
Lackey suddenly held the branch with his backhand and stabbed it towards a tree. The next second, the blunt end of the branch impaled a chameleon about two meters long. In the splash of flesh and blood, it shed its dead wood-colored skin.
, and fell into the grass with a "dong" sound.
This chameleon was only five meters away from Yu Mingyang, which was an extremely dangerous hunting distance.
Yu Mingyang screamed in fright. When he looked at the chameleon's mouth full of fangs, he felt cold all over his body. He hugged the cross tightly and trembled: "I didn't find it at all! It's a chameleon, right? It doesn't eat insects.
?"
Sinuocheng opened the chameleon's mouth with one hand and pressed its teeth: "Unfortunately, you can eat these teeth without any problem."
Yu Mingyang:……
Immediately, Si Nuocheng picked up its body: "The quality is average and not suitable for weapons. But if the skin is used as a battle suit, it may have miraculous effects. Someone should be able to use it."
Yu Mingyang said weakly: "Boss Si, you are carrying a bleeding chameleon on your back. What if the smell attracts big guys?"
"I'm afraid they won't come." Si Nuocheng rolled his eyes cryptically, "All the corpses of low-level demons have been used to build dungeons, and the resources of Zhongzhou for making battle clothes have long been exhausted. The four newly arrived dragon corpses have also taken over.
Soon, if we don’t get some good stuff in Tai O, where else can we find good stuff?”
While talking, Lackey broke another branch and urged: "Since we are short of resources, let's go southeast. I smell the fishy smell of the swamp."
He swung the branch and cut through the grass: "Based on my understanding of Tai O, swamps are generally the habitat of Australian crocodiles."
"The Australian crocodile has a low metabolic rate and slow evolution. It has maintained its original genes from the Mesozoic era to the present to the greatest extent." Lackey gestured, "Before the Doomsday, the world's largest crocodile was found in Tai O, with a body length of 6.7 meters.
It weighs 1.1 tons. Now, maybe it has returned to its ancestors and turned into an imperial crocodile?"
"Maybe there's more than one. After all, crocodiles are social animals."
Hearing this, the two mascots turned blue: "What kind of monster is King Crocodile?"
Lackey: "It's not a monster at all. According to the encyclopedia, it's only 13 meters long and weighs 11 tons. I can throw it out with one hand."
Mascots:…
Ji Si smiled evilly, and the crow's beak officially started: "Even a seven-inch long chameleon can grow to two meters, you are too underestimated the crocodile. In ancient times, it was a type of 'earth dragon'.
"
Before anyone could complain, a three-meter-tall black bat bit into Ji Si's neck.
Perhaps it was their relaxed posture that made him think there was an opportunity to take advantage of him. Perhaps it was Ji Si's long hair that made him mistake him for a lighter woman. The bat tightened its wings and followed the momentum of landing at high altitude to attack him, intending to pluck it off in one go.
The opponent's head.
Unfortunately, it found the wrong prey.
The "Silver Branch Moon Crown" on Ji Si's head instantly opened its antlers, and there was a flash of silver light, directly stabbing the bat to death. With a successful blow, it closed back to its original shape, leaving only the bat's corpse.
There was thick blood flowing out from his feet.
Everyone:......
They looked at the tragically dead bat, and then at the hair crown on top of Ji Si's head. It was still entangled with silver branches and looked low-key, showing the tranquility of the years, without the ferociousness it had just now.
Damn it, did they read it correctly? They weren’t blind, were they?
Ji Si's tiara - that tiara that looks like a hair ornament, it's a killer weapon! It can kill you in a minute, who can guard against it?
It’s so scary! The little animal is gone in the blink of an eye!
This man's appearance is a sharp weapon, his hair is a murder weapon, his scepter is a holy weapon, and his body is a weapon... Now even his crown has become a weapon. Is there anything about him that is safe?
"Your crown..."
"Is it Him?" Ji Si caressed the crown of his hair, "It is the 'Silver Branch Moon Crown', also known as the 'Star Top'. The material is a sacred tree that allows you to pick any star if you climb to the top."
He smiled and said: "Because they are trees, they will be very excited when entering the jungle. They all think that they have returned to their own territory and want all things to surrender. They have a very domineering temperament."
It was a taboo for the bat to attack him.
"Them?" Si Nuocheng couldn't help but look at his scepter.
"Yes, they." Ji Si raised the scepter, "The tree of life in the center of the universe, the sacred tree in the Elf Forest, and the sacred tree in the Dark Demon Realm are all here with me."
"This is proof that I have defeated them."
Amid the unclear expressions of his teammates, Ji Si said calmly: "I am much more domineering than them. Attacking me in the forest is simply seeking death."
Everyone:......
Si Nuocheng laughed: "The sacred tree of the Elf Forest is in your hands..."
"Oh my god! What are you afraid of, my immortal teammate!" Yu Mingyang interrupted him with a slap on the thigh, "Laji's wild skill points are full, and Boss Si is an elf, so he is not afraid of trouble. Ji Si has all-round AoE,
What are you still afraid of? Go to the swamp!"
Jiang Qining immediately followed Yu Mingyang's brain circuit: "Killing monsters shouldn't be too easy. Even if Ji Si doesn't take action, his crown can activate automatically! Let's lure the big crocodiles over and kill them one by one. Zhongzhou will never do it again."
Don’t worry about my studies... bah, worry about not having enough materials!”
Ji Si:......
The three reliable people suddenly fell silent.
To be honest, if Ji Si stood still, but his crown could expand and contract freely, and then one of them would be impaled to death, and another pair of them would be impaled to death, this scene would be inexplicably weird.
Suddenly I’m not very envious of Ji Si’s equipment!
…
The swamp in the southeast was relatively far away, and by the time the sun set and the moon rose, the five-person team had only walked one-third of the way. Since three of the five people still needed to eat and rest, the team found a place to "camp" near a stream.
", decided to rest for a while before leaving.
Lackey dragged back a sheep and quickly lit a fire to skin it and roast it. Sinuocheng's "nature" was playing out and he was sitting on a tree trunk with wild grass beside him, knitting something smoothly.
For a moment, Si Nuocheng looked at Lackey who was grilling meat below, and then started talking: "What... do you think of Jiang Qining?"
"How can he watch? Can he watch? He has either played or pooped now." Lackey complained madly with no expression on his face, "I hope no poisonous snake bites his butt this time, and he won't be bitten by three crocodiles.
Chase him to the tree."
Si Nuocheng: ...You really understand him.
Don't you really have something?
"Why did you suddenly ask about Jiang Qining?" Lackey paused and suddenly thought of melon. Suddenly, his expression was a little distorted, thinking that Si Nuocheng was going to tell something.
Lackey changed the topic understandingly: "Let's not talk about Lao Jiang, where is Ji Si?"
"He is standing on the cliff blowing the wind." Si Nuocheng looked into the distance and chuckled, "He can stand for a long time, as motionless as a tree. If I didn't have elf eyes, I might not be able to see clearly.
The difference between him and a tree is that a tree won’t run away once it takes root, but he doesn’t take root.”
Lackey inexplicably heard a hint of sadness in these words.
【He doesn’t take root...】
Lackey:...How do you know him so well?
You must have something!
On the other side, in the bushes, Jiang Qining beat the bushes with experience, cleaned up the fallen leaves, and then invited Yu Mingyang to take off his pants and squat in the pit.
Unlike Si Nuo who turned on the soul totem, they no longer need to eat and sleep. They are also not like Laki who can put on the soul cloak and can consume the energy of food to the maximum extent and reduce the number of trips to the toilet.
They are just two "ordinary" awakened people who not only need to eat, sleep and drink water, but also need to have diarrhea to solve their physiological problems.
No, a trap has fallen.
