In the dense forest, four figures fled in a hurry. Two of them were my old acquaintances Lin Huai and Xiao Yuting. They were covered in colorful clothes at the moment, but they had no time to stop and recuperate. Because behind them,
A group of strange men in black were following them like a shadow. They were blocked by this group of men in black just now.
Originally, Lin Huai and Xiao Yuting's four teams had a total of eight members. They went all the way north these days, went through a lot of hardships, and finally reached the border of the forest. However, what greeted them was not the joy of victory, but the joy of victory.
It was a devastating blow - they met a group of strange men in black.
These men in black possess extremely powerful strength, and they were seriously injured when they encountered each other. In the end, Tang Yue, the captain of the four teams, diverted half of the men in black, while the remaining seven were divided into two groups.
Many people fled, but even so, there were still a large number of men in black chasing the four of Lin Huai. At a glance, there were at least a dozen of them, all of whom were mid- to late-level two-star experts. No one could be taken out.
Easy to deal with!
"Let's escape into the forest. There are plant essences everywhere there. It's easier for us to escape with them." Although Lin Huai was covered in blood, he still said calmly and calmly.
Hearing this, Xiao Yuting naturally had no objections, but the other two people's expressions were different. A dark-skinned man said with a strange expression: "Lin Huai, you are crazy. If you go in, aren't you asking for death? When the time comes, Zhijing and
It’s even more uncomfortable for us when the men in black attack us from both sides.”
"Otherwise, what should we do? There are some men in black who are stronger than us. If this continues, we will be dead. Why not give it a try? We are also small in number and can easily escape from the plant spirits. Moreover, we wandered in the forest.
It has been more than half a month, and I have some experience in dealing with plant essences. This is the only way to survive!" Lin Huai said hastily.
Together, several people felt that Lin Huai's words made sense. They gritted their teeth and fled deep into the forest. Seeing Lin Huai and four others fleeing deep into the forest, many people in black behind them suddenly felt a toothache.
It’s not easy to chase... Sure enough, as we continued to walk into the forest, more and more plant spirits were around. After feeling the intrusion of outsiders, these plant spirits seemed to be crazy and acted indiscriminately.
Attack Lin Huai and the four men, as well as the man in black behind them.
However, facing the attacks of these plant spirits, Lin Huai and the four of them could always dodge like loaches. After realizing that Lin Huai and the others had escaped, the plant spirits chose to attack the people behind who looked threatening.
The more powerful man in black took action, and for a while the men in black were so busy that they actually increased the distance between them.
"Damn it, why do these plants always favor us? Is it because we are strong?" Among the many men in black, the leader was a man at the peak of the late two-star stage. At this time, he was looking further and further away.
The distance made me feel extremely irritable.
If no one is caught, he will be punished if he goes back.
Thinking of this, the leader in black used his mental power to threaten: "Those four people in front of you, don't run away. I'll stay and spare your lives. Why don't you just surrender and be captured?!"
Hearing the threats from the leaders in black, Lin Huai and others ignored them. They were all strong men in the country, and naturally they would not let the enemy scare them to the point of running away after just a few threats.
Seeing that the four people in front were unmoved, the leader in black was furious. He was a powerful person at the peak of the late two-star stage, but his strength was severely limited in this ghost place. He was no better than other low-level people. Otherwise, he
They had all been left behind long ago.
The two sides chased each other and played a game of cat and mouse in the forest. However, the men in black, who were cats, suffered a lot. They did not know much about the plant spirits in the forest and did not know how to avoid them.
, they can only fight head-on, but this only angers more plant essences, and such a vicious cycle only pulls Lin Huai and the four further and further away.
The people in black were agitated, but Lin Huai and the other two were happy. The dark-skinned man from before was named Chen Hui. At this moment, he looked happy and said to Lin Huai: "It's really you. We really escaped."
."
"Now is not the time to be happy. We haven't escaped safely yet." Lin Huai's face was still solemn. He looked at the man in black behind him who was entangled with the plant essence, then looked at the front, and said in a deep voice: "We are now
We can avoid the Phytozoa because the number of Phytozoa outside the forest is still within the controllable range, but it’s hard to say if we go further. We all know how terrifying the Phytozoa are inside the forest. If we go further in, the Phytozoa may be
It will no longer be our helper, but a burden, and we may even die in the hands of the plant essence."
"What should we do?" Qin Xiaolan, one of the only two women among the four, asked with a sudden change in expression.
Unknowingly, the four-person team began to focus on Lin Huai. Although Chen Hui and Qin Xiaolan were both stronger than Lin Huai, they still subconsciously sought Lin Huai's opinion.
Hearing this, Lin Huai was silent for a moment. Just when Chen Hui and Qin Xiaolan thought that Lin Huai had nothing to do, Lin Huai spoke. This gave Chen Hui and Qin Xiaolan a little peace of mind in their panic. They just heard Lin Huai say
: "Do you still remember the misty forest we passed through three days ago?"
"Misty forest?" The three of them were startled, and then nodded.
For more than half a month, the main reason why the fourth team has perfectly avoided the search force is because the direction of the fourth team is always on the northeast side, which is exactly the same direction as the Xiabu in the northwest. However, this also caused the fourth team to be here.
During this period, we walked through most of the forest.
And this misty forest was the place that impressed them the most, because the plants in that area would emit a green mist. This mist is so terrifying that it can blind people's nerves and even souls if they stay in it for a long time.
It can lead to physical paralysis, mental confusion, and even hallucinations. Even the soul is affected and cannot exert its full power. In severe cases, even the soul falls into a semi-sleep state, resulting in the inability to use the slightest power.
strength, which also caused the teammate to fall into a severe coma.
At that time, the four teams suffered a lot, and even caused teammates to kill each other due to hallucinations. Fortunately, they all came out in the end, but it also left a shadow. When Lin Huai mentioned it, Chen Hui and Qin Xiaolan's faces suddenly changed.
There was a hint of paleness, they had suffered a lot that day.
Chen Hui's face turned pale and he said: "No way, boss, do you want to go inside again?"
"Other than that, I can't think of a better way to escape." Lin Huaiyan said concisely and concisely: "You should know that the misty forest has several characteristics, one is that it is large, the other is that the vision is extremely poor, and the poisonous gas inside can cause
The five senses and perceptions of those who enter become extremely dull. The most important thing is that the ghost energy fluctuations can be isolated there."
"Although it is dangerous inside, after we enter, we can better get rid of the group of men in black behind us. As for how we get out... We were able to get out of it three days ago. Could it be that we can't get out now that we have experience?"
If we go, we won't be so miserable, right?" Lin Huai asked back.
Hearing this, Chen Hui and Qin Xiaolan suddenly realized. Qin Xiaolan's face also turned from worry to joy, and said: "Lin Huai, you are right, nothing is more important than survival. No matter how dangerous the misty forest is, it is not as dangerous as the group of men in black behind!"
"What did Brother Hui say?" Lin Huai looked at Chen Hui.
"Let's do it!" Chen Hui made his decision without hesitation, but after a while, Chen Hui frowned again and said awkwardly: "It's just... where the misty forest is, I have no memory at all."
"It doesn't matter, I have an impression." At this time, Xiao Yuting, who had not spoken much, suddenly said: "The misty forest is not far from us, only about ten kilometers. You just need to follow me!"
"Wow, Yuting, you are too reliable!" Qin Xiaolan said in surprise.
"Otherwise, it's a road god. It's no problem to follow the road god!" Chen Hui also had a smile on his face. Xiao Yuting has always been a road god in the team these days, because she has a strong sense of the road.
They were able to cross this forest, and Xiao Yuting had at least half of the credit.
The distance of ten kilometers passed by in a few minutes. It may be because there are more and more plant spirits blocking the road, or it may be that the people in black have some skills to fight against the plant spirits. In short, the distance between the two sides is gradually getting closer, and the nearest
At that time, the distance was only three to four hundred meters, and Lin Huai and the four of them even suffered a few attacks from the men in black.
However, thanks to Xiao Yuting, they did not take the wrong path after all. Just when they felt that the crisis was approaching, a green mist finally appeared in the distance. It was the foggy forest that caused the four teams to suffer a lot, but
The dangerous misty forest at this moment is undoubtedly a life-saving straw for Lin Huai and the others.
"There is the misty forest ahead. It is expected that we will reach the border of the misty forest in about ten seconds. Everyone, do as I say. We will arrive at the misty forest in a while. Listen to me shout three two one, and on the count of one, we will rush to the ground floor immediately.
In the green mist swamp, everyone should not fall behind, do you understand?" Lin Huai ordered.
"Understood!" the three of them said in unison.
And just when Lin Huai and the others were about to enter the misty forest, the man in black behind them was only less than three hundred meters away from them. For the man in black, this distance could be covered in just one second.
Pass.
"These damn ants have been playing tricks on us for so long. If I catch them later, I will have them crushed to ashes. I will use their skulls as chamber pots!" the leader in black said viciously.
However, the joy of victory on the face of the leader in black did not last long, and his face turned ugly, because he also discovered that there was an invisible green mist in front of him, and judging from the actions of Lin Huai and the four of them
Obviously going there.
"Boss, they seem to be going into the green mist. If they go in, it will be even harder for us to find them!" A subordinate of a man in black said quickly.
"I know!" the leader in black cursed and said angrily: "Everyone, attack with all your strength!"
After the words fell, more than a dozen men in black attacked with all their strength. All kinds of ghost energy beams and ghost bombs were swayed out as if they were free, so that the four Lin Huai in front were also attacked by this intensity.
Unexplainable injuries.
"Pfft!"
After being bombarded by a ghost energy beam, Lin Huai suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his face turned pale. Seeing this, Xiao Yuting's expression suddenly changed, and she quickly asked: "Brother Huai, are you okay?"
"It's okay!" Lin Huai gritted his teeth. His white teeth were covered with blood, which showed that his injuries were not serious. However, he suppressed the pain in his body and shouted: "We are entering the green mist, everyone is ready."
Hearing this, Xiao Yuting and the others suddenly tensed up, and then heard Lin Huai's voice ringing in their ears: "Three."
"two."
"one!"
As soon as Lin Huai said this, the four of them immediately swooped down and rushed directly into the green mist swamp. This green mist swamp was a swamp-like place accumulated over many years, and it was very vast.
It is said to be a swamp, but in fact it was only named so by the members of the Fourth Team. It is not really a swamp. It is just because it is very sticky inside, so they called it that.
As soon as Lin Huai and the four entered the bottom of the swamp, they started swimming in it. They were not stupid enough to stay where they were. At this time, the pursuers behind them finally rushed into the misty forest. However, when they looked around,
But he found that there wasn't even a ghost figure around, it was all fucking trees, and he couldn't even feel the slightest breath, everything was covered by the green mist.
Seeing this scene, the leader in black went crazy.
Several ants actually ran away under his nose. This was simply a shame and a great humiliation!
"Search, search for me!" The leader in black looked livid and said angrily: "I want to see people today, and I want to see corpses. You must find those four mice!!!"
When the roar of the leader in black echoed, Lin Huai and the others had already disappeared. They moved forward along the bottom of the swamp, swam for a kilometer, and soaked in it for ten minutes.
After they couldn't hold it in any longer, the four of them quietly swam up from the swamp. Once ashore, the four of them looked like they were wearing ghillie suits, with green liquid all over their bodies, but they didn't put those things in their bodies.
The plan is to get it down, because this is obviously the best camouflage. Not only does the color match the surrounding green mist, but it can also cover up one's own breath. It can not only protect against the men in black, but also the plant spirits in the foggy forest. Although it is disgusting.
But there is a strong sense of security.
"Oops, I almost choked to death..." After landing, Chen Hui gasped for air. Although he complained, his face was full of joy, because they obviously got rid of the man in black.
was chased and killed.
"Brother Huai Niubi, you really led us out." Qin Xiaolan couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised.
"It's safe for the time being, but everyone should still be careful not to expose their breath. It's better to be cautious." Lin Huai smiled and reminded, and then he collapsed on the ground and took a deep breath. His current situation
In fact, it was extremely bad. They were seriously injured all over their bodies, but they did not dare to use ghost energy to treat them. They could only survive like this. The most important thing was that this green mist was not a kind person. They swam in the swamp and it was obvious that they had been infected.
Full of this kind of thing, Lin Huai felt that his condition was quite bad at the moment. His body was only slightly numb, but the problem was that he was still in severe pain.
Seeing Lin Huai couldn't hide his pain, Xiao Yuting felt heartbroken, but she couldn't do anything. She could only hold Lin Huai's hand and try to share some of his pain.
"Brother Huai, how are you doing?" Chen Hui asked.
"It's not good, but I can't die." Lin Huai took a deep breath and said.
After hearing this, everyone fell silent. After a while, Chen Hui couldn't help but ask: "Who are those men in black? Why do they appear here, and why do they insist on killing us?"
"Maybe they are the people under the ghost master. The aura is very weird, but it's not time to talk about this. We have to leave!" Lin Huai looked around and was so quiet that the environment here was like boiling a frog in warm water.
It makes people fall into it without even realizing it.
Lin Huai felt that he couldn't stay here for long, so he immediately said: "We have escaped now, but staying here is not a long-term solution. We must leave here immediately."
The way to leave is very simple, just walk in one direction, but your willpower must be strong enough, otherwise you may hallucinate and lead yourself to go in circles, so everyone must act together to avoid confusion in someone's consciousness.
"Leave here? If you go out, wouldn't it be very dangerous? What if the man in black catches you again?" Qin Xiaolan said worriedly. Although she felt that the misty forest was dangerous, she felt that the man in black was more dangerous. It was a biological instinct.
Making her very dependent on the relative safety of the misty forest.
"We can't stay here for too long. What if the man in black calls his companions again? Apart from this, if we stay here for too long, we may die," Lin Huai said harshly.
"You are right..." Qin Xiaolan nodded and said weakly.
"Then let's go." Lin Huai supported his body and stood up. Seeing Lin Huai move, the other three people also stood up instinctively. At this time, Lin Huai said to the three people: "Let's keep going forward, we will definitely be able to
Go out, if you encounter a man in black unfortunately, it doesn’t matter, just jump into the swamp... God bless us, I hope this journey..."
Lin Huai's words stopped abruptly. At the same time, a look of vigilance suddenly appeared on Lin Huai's face. At the same time as Lin Huai's face showed alarm, the other three people also seemed to feel something.
Looking to the back, there were some subtle sounds coming from there.
The four of them all held their breath and looked at the direction of the sound with all their attention. They all hoped that the sound just now was just an accidental sound made by a certain plant spirit, but they did not rule out the possibility of a man in black appearing.
Under the nervous gaze of the four people, a man in black with a graceful figure walked over in the green mist that made it difficult to see clearly in front of them. Seeing this scene, the pupils of the four people suddenly shrank.
It's the man in black!
After realizing this, the four of them did not hesitate, turned around and jumped into the swamp. They were not stupid enough to fight the man in black, even if the other person looked like just a person, or even just a woman in terms of figure, because
Once you take action, it will inevitably attract more men in black.
However, just when Lin Huai and Xiao Yuting were about to jump into the swamp again, a voice so familiar that it made their souls tremble came from behind.
"Brother Huai, Sister Ting, don't leave yet!"
It was this simple sentence that made Lin Huai and Xiao Yuting stop their next actions.
"boom!"
Chen Hui and Qin Xiaolan jumped down, but soon they discovered that Lin Huai and Xiao Yuting were missing. After recalling the words of the man in black, they felt something was wrong and floated ashore. Then they saw Lin Huai
Like statues, Xiao Yuting and Xiao Yuting stood blankly on the edge of the swamp, looking at the man in black walking over without blinking, with a look of shock on their faces.
Her throat moved, Xiao Yuting swallowed her saliva, and said in disbelief: "You...you are..."
"Yes, it's me."
The man in black tore off his mask, revealing a handsome, young face that was extremely familiar to Lin Huai and Xiao Yuting. At that time, Lin Huai and Xiao Yuting had a look of emotion on their faces, and they lost their voices.
