Chapter 4 The Lucky Unfortunate (Part 2)
"How is it now?" A man lying on the ground was communicating with the person on the tree with gestures.
"The target is moving in the direction of the trap, but the size of the trap may not be able to control the target." The person on the tree replied.
"Swoosh--"
At this moment, a sound of wind sounded, and in the grass five meters in the direction of the two people at 11:00, a black shadow suddenly shot out, and was nailed directly to the tail of a big snake on the tree in front of them. The big snake rushed forward in pain. Unexpectedly, the branch where it was located suddenly broke, and the vines that seemed to be hanging randomly under the branches suddenly tightened, directly tied the nearly three-meter-long snake into a rice dumpling.
"Swoosh--"
Another arrow, this time the goal was the seven inches of the big snake that was constantly struggling. Perhaps because of the hit rate, although it hit, it did not cause much damage to the snake. However, at this moment, the two people who were talking at the beginning had already pounced on it, and the stone knife in their hands greeted him. This big snake, which was not only thick, but also seemed to have poisonous, died.
"Zhang, do you think this snake tendon can be used?" The strong man with blond hair and blue eyes pulled out a long tendon from the snake corpse and handed it to the oriental man who was walking over and carrying a long bow.
The man tried it, nodded and said, "Yes, it would be great if there is a ponytail mane or something. After all, the single beast tendon is very easy to break."
"There is nothing to do about this. It is impossible to see a horse in the jungle." Another strong white man who was dealing with a snake corpse looked up and said.
"I really didn't expect that this jungle was so big that we had not walked out for three years." At night, in a dead tree hole, three people were eating snake meat around the fire, and the blonde man said.
"We originally thought this was the Amazon jungle, but now it doesn't look like it's at all." Zhang continued, "Although this kind of thing is incredible, I think we have indeed traveled through time."
"Time travel?" The other two did not understand what the word meant.
"We are all special forces soldiers. I don't know how you usually relax, but the way I relax is to read novels. Many novels mention our current situation, which is to come to another world for some reason." Zhang explained.
"You mean, we are in the world of novels now?" asked the blonde man.
"Hans, maybe you can't understand as a German. Let's put it this way, I think you should know the Bermuda Triangle. Some people once guessed that it was a channel connecting other worlds. We were unfortunately coming to other worlds, but this is not a novel, but reality. After all, we are here now." Zhang continued.
"Well, no matter what, I think it's terrible here. I really hope there are other humans in this world, not just jungle and messy wild animals." The white man said with some depression.
"It's not certain now. Ivan, what I worry most is that since time travel has appeared, will magic or something appear? If there is magic, there will be monsters. With our current equipment, it will be dangerous to encounter monsters." Zhang said worriedly.
"Warcraft? Are you talking about dragons?" It seems that Hans is not that old-fashioned.
"Of course not. If we encounter a dragon, we can just wait to die. I'm talking about a little monster." Zhang said, "For example, monsters that can fire ice arrows, fireballs or wind blades. When they meet them, it is no less than in close combat, the other party suddenly takes out a pistol and shoots, but we are unable to guard against it, or it is likely that it is much more serious than this."
"If you talk about it carefully, although it is incredible, I think we should be prepared." Ivan said.
Maybe Zhang was a crow's mouth. A few days after this conversation, they encountered a monster. It was a huge thing, like a frog. Hans was fetching water by the river. Two other people were alerting that the frog monster suddenly jumped out of the water. Open his mouth and looked at Hans with a pool of green liquid. As a special forces soldier, Hans' reaction was definitely not slow. He rolled quickly and avoided the liquid. At the same time, Zhang's bow and arrow also shot the frog monster's head. The frog monster paused and wanted to attack, but what was waiting for it was Ivan's spear (made of branches).
"Sure enough, I encountered a monster." Ivan said, looking at the corpse nailed to the ground by a spear.
"It seems that this kind of thing is not strong, but it can easily hide itself, and its venom is also very powerful." Hans said, looking at the ground that has been severely corroded by the green liquid.
"No, this is actually not a monster, it can only be considered a monster," Zhang shook his head. "It only uses ordinary toxins, and with our skills, it is not difficult to deal with as long as we pay attention, but I think this thing cannot be eaten."
Indeed, perhaps Ivan's spear pierced the poison gland, and the frog has now turned into a pool of sticky things, and it also emits a pungent smell, and the surrounding ground has been corroded.
“Buzz…”
A buzzing sound suddenly came along the direction of the river. The three of them looked at each other, quickly left the riverside, and hid themselves not far away. Not long after, a huge red...mosquito? Flying over, he flew around the frog corpse on the ground for a few circles, slowly descended, and inserted his tail into the corpse. Then the huge abdomen bulged, as if something had been buried in the corpse. After doing this, the mosquito flew around the corpse and finally flew away.
"This should be a monster, right? It's about two meters long!" Ivan jumped out of the tree and murmured. But no one paid attention to him. Zhang and Hans had already come to the corpse and used a spear to split the corpse. It was indeed an egg the size of a fist inside.
After this, the trio was more vigilant, but they also encountered more monsters, such as water snakes over five meters long and bucket-sized, bats with wingspans of more than two meters, vultures with snake-like tails, spiders larger than millstones, man-eating flowers two meters tall, and some of them seemed to be tree-bearing people.
"Ahem...you say... these tree people... should be plants... or animals..." Ivan said weakly while lying on the ground. Just now, they were attacked by a large number of tree people. In order to cover Hans, Ivan's back was hit hard, several ribs were broken, and his internal organs were also damaged. Under the current medical conditions, there was no other way to do this except waiting for death.
"It should be... a plant..." Hans whispered.
"Haha... cough cough... it's so ugly. I was actually killed by a tree... If those guys heard it, I wouldn't be laughed at to death." Ivan said with a smile, "Now you two are left, don't die, at least... you have to see what's inside the forest..."
Ivan's voice became lower and lower, and with the last word, he closed his eyes forever.
"If possible, cremate, use the corpses of the tree man." Zhang, who was carrying the bow and arrow, walked over and said to Hans. Hans did not answer, but nodded. Then, he picked up Ivan's body, placed it next to a corpse of the tree man, and lit the corpse of the tree man. Looking at the flames ignited, the two living people stood at the same time and saluted solemnly.
"Let's go," Hans turned around as the flames gradually faded, and said, "We're going to get out of the forest."
"Yes, we will definitely go out." Zhang nodded and said firmly.
...
“…Amen.”
After the prayer, the girl stood up, tightened the bow and arrow on her body, turned around and left the church. Outside the church, several girls who were dressed the same as her were waiting there.
"Lan, although it has been so long, I still want to say that you should be a nun rather than Roger. After all, your devotion to God is even greater than that of some nannies." said the girl who seemed to be the leader.
"You know, Flavi, as the shepherd of God, not only needs gentle comfort, but also whip." The girl Lan Yi said sternly. However, the girl knew that what she was telling was actually a lie. She herself did not believe in God or anything, but because prayer did have any effect and she did have some "divine techniques", she kept doing this because in this world that can be said to be isolated and helpless, she had to make herself stronger.
"Okay, okay, I can't tell you." Flavi said in a surrender statement, changing the topic: "Today our mission is still patrol. The barbarians in the north and Lu Gaoyin in the south have started war again. The defense zone we are in is just near their border area. Although for some reason, neither side will attack us, we must also beware of some defeated soldiers."
In this way, the patrol began. This is a ten-person Roger patrol team. Their mission is actually just patrol. After all, Roger has no advantage except for being faster. It is okay to face one or two people. They can shoot the other side in a concentrated manner. If they encounter five or six people, they can also use their speed to deal with it. However, when they encounter about ten people, they will have to escape.
But this is nothing. For some reason, the countries bordering them have never had the idea of invading here. The biggest battle in this country was to face a battle of nearly a hundred defeated soldiers, which was incomparable to the battle between other countries, which was incomparable to tens of thousands of people.
"You said, why do the barbarians always fight with the desert empire in the south?" Roger suddenly said. The patrol was actually quite relaxing, and the team members would chat from time to time.
"Yes, yes, you said the north is full of ice and snow, why do you always want to invade the southern desert?" asked another Roger.
"Maybe they didn't like each other?" Flavi answered inadvertently, then looked at Lan, who was seriously alert and asked, "Lan, you know more than us. What do you think is going on?"
"Simply put, it is because of the different cultures." After a look around, Lan replied: "There are four countries on this continent, and each country has different production methods, so that the cultures they derived are different. Among them, the eastern Kurast and our food can be self-sufficient and even exported, while the north and the south cannot do this. It's okay that the south can exchange trade for necessary living materials, while the north can only exchange blood. Because Kurast is the main supplier of food, the barbarians in the north can only plunder the south."
"Well... it makes sense..." Everyone nodded, but at this moment, the vanguard in front suddenly shouted:
"There is a situation!"
