Chapter 299: The Dangerous Jungle
In the early morning, just as it was getting dark, Colonel Packard took the soldiers out of their sleeping bags.
Colonel Packard has a strong military style, a cold face and strict requirements for his subordinates, but the soldiers do not hate him because he leads by example and values the life of every subordinate.
As the sun rises and the sun rises, the original scenery of Skull Island is intoxicating!
The peaks and mountains are like clusters, rolling up and down, towering ancient trees rise from the ground, and the forest sea is covered with the white mist that never dissipates. Under the carved cliffs, there are deep valleys, and flocks of frightened birds fly out from time to time.
However, beneath this beautiful scenery, there is a deadly murderous intention.
For example, if you look closely at the flock of birds flying darkly across the sky, you will find that they are an extremely ancient aerial predator, similar to a pterosaur, with a sharp, jagged beak.
The team went deep into the jungle, and the dogs surrounding Shan immediately became active, as if they had seen a newly renovated home, with their enemies everywhere.
Creatures like Erha are very energetic. If you don't let them go crazy, they will make you go crazy. Therefore, Russell did not restrain the fifteen dogs and let them unleash their nature of destroying homes.
Fifteen dogs ran away like the wind and disappeared. After a while, there were roars from the direction where they disappeared.
The dogs randomly booed and divided the territory, angering the original owners of this territory, more than thirty knife-backed jackals.
It is said to be a wolf, but it is more like a Velociraptor that walks on all fours. The back of this creature has severe bone hyperplasia, and it looks like a steel thorn when exposed outside the body. It has been in a ferocious and cruel hunting state for a long time, and is not a good prey.
There are many kinds of strange beasts on Skull Island, including long-legged giant spiders, stick insects that look like dead wood, and giant swamp squids. They are just one of them.
Unlike the velociraptors who bully the weak and fear the strong, the knife-spine jackal has a violent temperament. In addition to the territorial dispute, it starts a fierce fight with the dogs and is unwilling to take a step back.
By the time a group of people arrived, the battle was over, and the scene was beyond sight.
Twenty-odd male knife-backed jackals were dead and wounded, curled up on the edge of the battlefield, licking their wounds, looking sad and angry, shivering. The dogs were riding on the trophies and singing victory songs, because there were too many monks and a few of them were sitting.
queue.
Russell "..."
I don't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that everyone was silent and took a few steps away from him.
Especially Ying Yingying, with the capital letters of disgust on her face, she seemed to be silently saying that you can tell a person by looking at a dog, and the kind of dog he has will be the kind of owner he has.
Russell was so embarrassed that he pulled out his sand hawk and shot into the air, driving away the angry dogs, and continued walking through the jungle, leaving behind a group of knife-spine jackals who were licking their tears.
The soldiers did not kill them, no matter from which point of view, they are the victims.
This scene is just a small microcosm of the people walking in the jungle. The dogs led the people through the mountains and rivers in the fish and meat village, and finally passed through this "dangerous" jungle in the afternoon.
To be precise, it should be that the disaster star has left, and the jungle has returned to its former dangerous state!
"Mr. Jason, I never knew there were people like you hidden in the world. Can you tell me about your world?"
Professor Landa was trying to get close to Russell all the way. The 'you' in his mouth were referring to Russell and Ying Yingying. Although the latter looked like a little Luoli about ten years old, no one thought so. She was carrying four
A big bag stuffed with Tyrannosaurus rex fangs.
On earth, those who can carry a 70 kilogram load and walk through the jungle are not called luoli.
When he met Russell and Ying Yingying for the first time, Professor Landa was shocked, but also excited. He believed that Russell must know the information about the monsters, and building a good relationship is extremely important for the Emperor organization.
"Our world is very dangerous. I can only tell you this, no more. Believe me, I am doing it for your own good!" Russell said perfunctorily. He had no good impression of Professor Landa. This man organized the exploration team.
But he concealed the truth, resulting in the tragic death of many people.
As for the imperial organization behind him, in Russell's opinion, it is even more ridiculous. Without their repeated attempts to commit suicide, the earth would have been stable.
"Mr. Jason, you shouldn't hide the truth. Humanity is in a very dangerous situation. We need to..."
"Then it's even more unspeakable. The world for us people is more dangerous. If ordinary people step into it rashly, it will only lead to the destruction of civilization." Black mist rose on Russell's face, and his dim pupils stared at Professor Landa: "If I tell
You, the real enemy of mankind is the gods, what are you going to do?"
Dr. Landa was speechless and was dragged into the ditch by Russell's few words. He couldn't climb out for a long time.
…
After walking for half an hour, everyone passed through a deep valley, and the front suddenly opened up.
Swamp and water land, a peaceful scenery of green mountains and green fields, with traces of indigenous activities once again appearing in the surrounding area. The smoke curled up from cooking stoves, and the village community could be vaguely seen, and the ferocious stone statues appeared again.
The tribal village that Jason mentioned is not far away, backed by rivers and lakes, and there is a man-made city wall of giant trees between the two mountains. The city wall that is tens of meters high is a miracle, and its scale is staggering.
, it’s hard to imagine how it could be built with human power alone.
What follows is an excessive plot. In the cottage, everyone meets Mark, a World War II veteran who was stranded on an island after a plane crash. After wandering in a foreign land for nearly 29 years, Mark was so excited that he cried when he saw people from modern society.
Russell did not interfere in this plot and spent the night with the others in the village. His image was so intimidating that the tribesmen were in awe.
At night, Colonel Packard and James were working the night shift. Mark was so excited that he couldn't sleep. He chatted with the two and learned that the scientific research team was going to go deep into the center of the island. He hurriedly advised not to die.
Mark has lived on the island for 29 years and has almost integrated into it. He talked about the dangerous areas on the island. The central area is a forbidden area of death, where skeleton reptiles are the most active.
As for King Kong, who destroyed the helicopter formation, Mark called it the patron saint of the island. It was because of his fight against the underground demons that life on the island survived.
Colonel Packard, who was bent on revenge, did not speak. He did not care about the importance of King Kong to the island, but only wanted to avenge the tragic death of the soldiers. Dr. Landa, the leader of the scientific research team, refused to give up. He shouldered the heavy responsibility assigned by the organization and insisted on going deep into the dangerous zone.
.
The soldiers obeyed Colonel Packard's orders, and the scientific research team followed Professor Landa's lead. The two leaders asked for death, but Mark had no choice but to talk. He longed to return to the real society, knowing that he could only die along with him.
.
"I wanted to ask before, who is that guy who looks like the devil?" Mark glanced at Russell's tent and asked in a low voice: "It's only been 30 years. When I came in, it was not like this outside!
