Chapter 14 Eyeball Monster

During the special training for explorers, Chen Lu had survived in the rainforest at the base for a period of time. Therefore, he always had some premonitions about possible crises that ordinary people did not have. When the ominous premonition hit his heart, he instinctively headed towards it.

He fell forward, but at the moment when he was about to fall to the ground, a sharp pain suddenly came from under the right shoulder blade, as if a large needle had been stabbed into the flesh. Then his back tightened, and his body was actually

Something was lifted.

The excruciating pain made Chen Lu scream. He was in mid-air. He raised his head with difficulty and saw a large white ball directly above his body. A pencil-thick thread hung from the bottom of the ball to hang from his waist.

On his back, the thread was like a fishing line, hanging him up.

Chen Lu wanted to struggle, but he had nowhere to push in mid-air, and the pain in his back was severe. As he was getting anxious, the ball monster suddenly turned downwards, revealing a huge pupil. From this look, the monster looked like a huge

The eyeball, the pupil-like thing actually separated from the middle, revealing three circles of jagged teeth waiting for Chen Lu's head to be delivered to the door.

He was about to be "head-shaving". Fortunately, Chen Lu was left-handed, and the injured right shoulder did not affect the movement of his left hand too much. He shouted "Samadhi Fire", and the end of the multi-functional ring immediately lit up with blazing flames, and he backhanded

He waved vigorously at the filament hanging on him. Where the filament could withstand the temperature of the flame, it was immediately cut off. With his eyeballs grunting in pain, Chen Lu stretched out his limbs and fell steadily to the ground.

Chen Lu stood up and prepared to face the monster. When he looked up, the eyeball monster had closed its "pupil", and another filament came out from behind and was pulled towards his face. There was a whistling wind, Chen Lu

Lu reacted very quickly and jumped back to avoid the "whip".

The eyeball monster refused to give up its prey at all. The filaments chased Chen Lu and kept twitching. Chen Lu used the cover of the trees to dodge left and right, but the filaments were extremely sharp and cut off all the branches blocking the way to feed.

Clinging to Chen Lu tightly.

Chen Lu hunched over and circled close to the fire. Wearing gloves on his hands, he directly reached into the fire and pulled out a burning wooden stick to protect himself. The thin thread was thrown around, as if he was not afraid of the flames.

He hit Chen Lu directly on the chest. Chen Lu waved the torch to block the filament. With a scoff, the torch was split in half by the filament, but the filament was not damaged at all. It just stopped slightly and then hooked Chen Lu's temple again.

. Chen Lu ducked, and the filament hit missed. Just as he was about to return the hook, Chen Lu suddenly raised his hand, and the flames flew out, cutting off the second filament.

The eyeball monster howled manically, and within five seconds, another thin thread was thrown out from behind its butt.

Even though Chen Lu was well-informed, he had never seen such a monster before. He was so frightened that he took a few steps back. He stumbled and fell. Just as he was about to turn over and get up, a big hand suddenly held him down tightly.

A shushing sound came from his mouth and ears at the same time. Chen Lu reacted very quickly and lay motionless, holding his breath and staring at the strange ball with his eyes, his heart almost jumping to his uvula.

The eyeball monster seemed to have lost its target and kept circling above Chen Lu. The filaments were swinging around wildly. It was really strange. The filaments were always more than half a meter away from the ground and no longer went downwards. Wait for it to vent.

Enough, he seemed to have lost his patience, and his ghostly eyeball slowly drifted back into the darkness of the jungle.

Chen Lu took a breath and quickly lifted the hand covering his mouth and nose. He turned around and saw Captain Nipomocheno's face in the firelight. Chen Lu was very surprised. It should be Nishino Yumei.

right.

The captain noticed Chen Lu's doubts and pointed to the other side of the fire. Then Chen Lu saw Nishino Yumi, who was dressed like a primitive man lying there motionless. The captain said in sign language that she was fine.

He just fainted and signaled Chen Lu to continue lying down and not to make any loud noise.

After Nipomocheno woke up, he also saw the smoke set off by Nishino Hanami. In line with the principle of efficiency, he did not go forward to find Zenangoti, but returned to the smoke. Because Nipomocheno landed at

The terrain is high, while Nishinohanami is low-lying, so it is closer to Nishinohanami than Chenlu, but we only found it before it got completely dark.

After the two met, they decided to set off to find Chen Lu tomorrow morning. Nishino Hanami took out some plant fruits that she had collected and was eating them with Nipo Mocheno. Without any warning, she was hoisted into the air by the eyeball monster. Nipo Mocheno picked it up.

A torch was thrown at the pupil of the eyeball monster. The pupil seemed to be the life gate of the strange ball. It dropped Nishino Yumi and swept away the torch with a flick of the filament. Nishino Yumi fell unconscious immediately after landing on the ground, and Nipomocheno was on the spot.

He fell down and remained motionless. The strange ball lost its target and wandered nearby. Unexpectedly, Chen Lu bumped in again not long after.

The eyeball monster floats at a height of four or five meters above the ground. Its pupils seem to be able to look straight, and seem to be afraid of light. They can easily open their mouths when turned up and down. Their hearing is relatively sensitive. That filament is the weirdest one. It is as flexible as a hand. It is powerful.

It can split waist-thick branches, but it seems it can only reach half a meter above the ground, and can't reach anything further down.

Chen Lu wondered how the captain knew this. Is short-term observation and inference so powerful? He immediately shook the multi-functional ring and told Nipo Mocheno that he had cut off two filaments, but it was very fast.

Another one will grow. Nipomocheno curled his lips and stretched out his thumb. He didn't know whether to praise him for his heroic fighting or to scold him for taking public property from the starship so early.

Chen Lu asked the captain what to do next, and Nipomocheno suggested that it was best to lie down quietly. The strange ball must be wandering nearby, and if you are lucky, it will be gone at dawn. Chen Lu pointed to Nishino Yumi, Nipomocheno said

Pomochino thought for a moment, then motioned for the two of them to crawl to her side softly.

As soon as he exerted force, Chen Lu felt a sharp pain in his right shoulder blade. Then he remembered that he had lost his job, so he could only endure the pain and crawl towards Nishino Yumi. Although he was very careful, he still made a sound, and the two stopped immediately.

After the movement, the strange ball flew back quietly, still hovering above the fire, and the thin threads whipped around with the sound of breaking wind. The surrounding branches and leaves fell one after another, causing pain to the two of them. After a while, the strange ball disappeared into the darkness again.

Lurking, the two of them did this, crawling seven times within a distance of five or six meters. It was not until the eyeball monster pulled all the branches above the fire that the three team members gathered together.

Nishino Yumei suddenly woke up, Chen Lu immediately covered her mouth, and Nipomocheno grabbed her arm. Just as Nishino Yumei was about to struggle, Chen Lu whispered his name in her ear, and then the two of them started talking again.

In sign language, he briefly explained to her what had happened since she was unconscious on the starship until now.

During the long night, none of the three people had the intention to sleep, and they didn't dare to make any noise. Chen Lu felt that the rumble of his hungry stomach was as loud as thunder. Fortunately, the strange ball was not attracted, so the three of them simply lay on the ground and counted the stars, waiting.

Daybreak.

Chen Lu spread his wings and flew away. There was a high mountain in front of him, but he couldn't fly up. He slid down the mountain, and this time it turned into an arrow and flew out from the string. He was almost at the top of the mountain, but he was about to fall down again. He was ready.

He was rushing upwards and suddenly felt difficulty breathing. He immediately opened his eyes and saw that it was Nishino Yumi covering his mouth and nose with her hands.

The eyeball monster flew back again to vent its anger. It was really patient. It flew back and failed again and again, and it didn't tire of it.

After the eyeball monster hid again, Chen Lu dared to relax. He felt that the hand on his mouth was surprisingly cold. He pursed his lips. Nishino Yumei withdrew his hand. Next to him, Nipo Mocheno glared at him fiercely. Nishino

Yumei looked apologetic and said in sign language: "I'm sorry. You snored just now!"

It was getting brighter in the forest, and although the sunlight had not penetrated, the chirping of birds could already be heard. The three of them lay there for a while, until daybreak. Nipomocheno coughed loudly, and after waiting for a while, the eyeball monster did not come again.

He stood up and squatted down, waited for a while, signaled it was safe, and then the three of them stood up.

Everyone gathered around the ashes with only a few pieces of charcoal left. Chen Lu impatiently begged for food from Nishino Yumi. Nishino Yumi went to the escape capsule and grabbed a handful of dark fruits and handed them to Chen Lu. Chen Lu took a handful and stuffed them in.

In the mouth, the fruit tastes sour and sweet. If you want it again, Nishino Yumi bows.

"I'm sorry Mr. Chen, that's all I have left. I'll find more for everyone to eat right away."

Nipomocheno said: "There is no need to look for it. We are on the road now. We will eat whatever is available on the road."

Chen Lu found a good location, and the three of them set off. From dawn to dusk, the terrain gradually became lower and lower. Although they didn't encounter any more monsters, they still couldn't find the point where Zenangoti fell. According to Chen Lu's calculations, this time

We can already find him by distance, but I'm afraid the positioning was already off.

Nishino Yumei was dressed like a primitive person, with a body-covering suit made of plants hanging on her body. She was silent all the time on the road, with a melancholy expression. She only spoke when the two of them asked some questions, or when she encountered edible plants.

Stopping collecting, Chen Lu guessed that she was struggling with the fact that her consciousness had been copied.

Nipo Mocheno asked about the story of Nishino Yumi's fall. Nishino Yumi suffered an inexplicable epileptic seizure on the starship. After Shang Gong gave her simple treatment, she never woke up. When she opened her eyes again, she was already in the forest. She began

She was very scared and couldn't figure out the situation, but when she saw the escape capsule, she knew that she should be on the Purple Star. She saw that she was only wearing underwear, so she used her professional skills and first collected some fruits and seeds to eat, and then picked some leaves.

I made a simple grass skirt, then remembered the rules of survival in the wild, so I lit a fire, hoping that my teammates would come after seeing it. The night had just darkened, and I was sitting in a daze, when the eyeball monster suddenly attacked from behind, and then

Everyone knows what happened next.

According to Nishino Yumi's observation, some of the vegetation on the Purple Star is native, and she would not dare to eat such plants rashly, but the other part is exactly the same as that on the earth. The "dried and fresh fruits" they eat are collected from this part of the plant.

When Chen Lu asked about the reason, Nishino Yumi couldn't tell him anything. Although the three of them were surprised, they didn't take it to heart.
