Chapter 2361 Natural phenomenon? (two chapters in one)
They were rebels. I didn't expect the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead to meet them in this place.
"Why are they?"
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead reacted very quickly. The moment he saw the flying dragon, his eyes focused on the figure riding on the back of the flying dragon.
Then he quickly ran to the grass on the side and got into it.
"Roar……"
The flying dragon flew in an orderly manner in the sky, roaring from time to time.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead hid in the grass and observed for a while. He was relieved when all the rebels left.
"Aren't these guys going to nearby cities too?"
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead had some speculations in his mind, and there was currently no way to confirm his thoughts.
He thought for a few minutes and then walked out from the lush grass.
"call……"
A gust of wind blew in the distance, and I didn't feel any coolness on my body. Instead, I felt hot.
The sweat on the pig-headed captain's forehead, which had a brown birthmark, dripped down his cheeks and onto the ground.
He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, then calmed down his emotions and decided to continue on his way.
Thinking too much about the current situation will not help. We can only take one step at a time.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, resumed his journey. He did not encounter any attacks throughout the afternoon, which was quite smooth.
The huge sun in the sky is moving slowly and will disappear soon.
The gloomy dark clouds in the sky are still overhead, and they are much darker in color than before.
When the sun was about to disappear, the dark clouds blocked it first.
"Boom..."
There were thunderous sounds, which made people's ears hurt.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead frowned. If there was thunder in the area where he was now, it would continue to reverberate, which would have a great impact on people.
"It's going to rain. I have to get out of here first and then find a place to take shelter."
The thunder became more intense, and the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead moved faster. After more than ten minutes, he finally left the sweltering mountainous area.
Suddenly, the vision suddenly opened up, and a large grassland appeared in front of the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.
When I came to this open place, the wind blowing in my face was not as hot as before, and it felt cool when it hit my body.
"Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock..."
Big raindrops fell from the sky and landed on the branches and leaves of the wild grass, making bursts of noise.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead quickly ran towards a cave in the distance. When he entered the cave, it was already raining heavily outside.
The raindrops formed a thread and fell quickly to the ground.
The originally dry soil began to become moist after absorbing rainwater.
The strange beasts that live on the grassland begin to quickly return to their homes when it rains.
When the rain is really heavy and the rain curtain is hazy, covering the grassland, at this time, if you look around, you can hardly see a strange beast.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, had better luck now. He saw a big dry tree near the entrance of the cave.
With a little effort, he cut off a large section of the dry tree and dragged it into the cave.
The flames rose up, and the orange-red firelight swayed gently. The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead took off his wet clothes and placed them next to the bonfire to bake.
There was thunder outside and heavy rain pouring down. The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, laid out his soaked clothes, stood up, walked to the entrance of the cave, and looked ahead.
According to experience, this heavy rain should not last long.
Therefore, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead does not have to worry about being trapped in this cave for many days like before.
The gloomy dark clouds were shrouded in night after the sky darkened. They could not be seen with the naked eye. They could only be confirmed by the continuous falling rain that they were still over this area.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was sitting in front of the campfire, reaching out to take out some food from his backpack, skewering it with dead branches and roasting it.
"Roar……"
When the sun just went down, there were no roars of beasts on the grassland. Now that the sky has completely darkened, some roars of beasts gradually began to appear.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead quickly finished his dinner and then put on the dry clothes.
The temperature started to drop after the rain fell. If it weren't for the bonfire, I would feel very cold now.
Arriving at the entrance of the cave, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead launched a sensory investigation.
There are no psychic fluctuations within a few hundred meters of the surrounding area, so it is certain that no strange beasts have come near the cave.
"It seems that I won't be able to have a good rest tonight." The pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead said to himself as he listened to the roar of beasts in the distance.
On this trip, I had considered all kinds of things in advance, including the possibility of being attacked by strange beasts while resting at night.
Therefore, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was not particularly nervous when he heard the roar of beasts on the grassland.
"call……"
A gust of wind blew, carrying a lot of rainwater towards the cave.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, quickly retreated a distance, and the rain soaked a small area of the ground.
"Tsk."
"The entrance of this cave is facing a bit wrong."
"It's a pity that there is only one cave like this nearby, otherwise I could have settled somewhere else."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the rain-soaked ground and muttered. Then he returned to the bonfire and sat down, leaning his back against the wall and closing his eyes to meditate.
…………
The stronghold built by humans is very lively after dark. The investigators who had been busy all day today returned to the stronghold at this time.
There was laughter and laughter in the cafeteria, and the sumptuous dinner whetted your appetite, relieving the fatigue caused by going out today.
After dinner, it can be seen that many investigators did not choose to go back to the dormitory to rest immediately, but walked in twos and threes to the recently built cinema.
Watching a movie after a meal and then going back to the dormitory to rest is the daily schedule of many investigators during this period.
In the office building, a middle-aged man wearing glasses is processing documents.
"Dong dong dong."
There was a knock on the door, and I shouted to the person outside the door. Soon, the person walked into the office.
"What's the matter?" The person in charge of the stronghold saw the assistant, put down the documents in his hand, and asked.
"Here is a document that just arrived." Zhu Li handed over the document in his hand.
"Um?"
After quickly reading the documents in his hand, the person in charge of the stronghold frowned.
"Now that something like this is happening in that mining area, we have to arrange for people to go to support as soon as possible." The assistant said.
"Please arrange this matter and send twenty people to support." The person in charge of the stronghold ordered, and then signed his name on the document.
"Yes." The assistant nodded, then took the signed document, turned and left the office, and began to look at the list to select people.
"call……"
The person in charge of the stronghold let out a sigh of relief after waiting for the assistant to leave. During this period, the work at hand was very complicated, and even though he was full of energy, he could not help but feel a little tired.
"When I finish all the things on hand, I will apply for a vacation with my boss and go back to Blue Star to have a good rest."
…………
The next morning, after breakfast, the investigators began to get busy.
Suddenly I saw some people armed and walking towards the parking place. The uninformed people asked curiously.
"Is there a strange beast coming?"
"That's not true."
"what is that?"
"They are going to support the mining area managed by Stronghold No. 35."
"What happened there requires us to send so many people to support."
"It is said that they were attacked by a swarm of insects. Although there were no casualties, the guards in the mining area were still unable to do anything..."
The roar of the car sounded, and under the gaze of many people, the heavily armed reinforcements drove the car and left the stronghold.
On the straight road, the speed of the team continued to increase until they saw a curve, then they slowed down and then drove smoothly through the curve.
"twitter……"
A burst of bird song suddenly sounded in the distance, which made the investigators in the car look sideways.
There are many birds perched on some trees next to the road. Most of them are ordinary animals. Some of them are exotic beasts, but they are very weak, so the investigators do not need to be too vigilant.
"It's such a heavy fog."
Suddenly, a group of investigators saw that the road ahead was obscured by white mist, and they exclaimed.
The speed of the convoy slowed down quickly and then stopped.
It’s not like the investigators have never walked this stretch of road before. They have never encountered this kind of situation before. Now that they suddenly see so much white mist, they can’t help but make people feel alert.
"I'll go ahead and investigate to make sure there's no danger before setting off." An investigator in his thirties said to the person next to him.
"I'll go with you." A girl with short hair put on her sunhat, picked up the weapon beside her, and quickly followed her colleagues.
Everyone saw two people walking into the area shrouded in white mist, chatting quietly, and patiently waiting for them to bring back news.
"I have walked this road six or seven times before, and most of them were in the early morning. I have never encountered white fog. It is really strange." The short-haired girl holding a weapon said.
"Yes, I have been to this place before, and nothing like this has ever happened." The investigator in his thirties said, took out a spiritual weapon from his backpack, activated it, and began to scan the surrounding area.
After a while, the two people left the area shrouded in white mist.
The news they brought back was that there were no abnormal psychic fluctuations in this area and they could continue their journey through this area.
The stopped convoy started again. Due to the white fog, the road conditions were relatively bad. In order to avoid an accident, the convoy slowed down.
"call……"
The wind blew on both sides of the road, causing the white mist to surge rapidly.
Suddenly, a huge figure appeared in the fog. This startled the driver of the car at the front of the convoy and he quickly stepped on the brakes.
"Crack..."
The tires rubbed against the road, making a screeching sound, and the convoy stopped again.
At this time, all investigators saw a huge figure in the fog in the distance.
Everyone got out of the car one after another, activated various weapons in their hands, and prepared for a battle.
"Without psychic fluctuations, is it an ordinary beast?"
"It doesn't seem like a living thing."
"Could it be some kind of natural phenomenon, similar to a mirage?"
Everyone stood still and waited for more than ten minutes before the huge figure in the mist dissipated.
"This..." The investigators looked at each other. This situation seemed to be some kind of natural phenomenon.
For safety reasons, it is not advisable to drive forward rashly.
Subsequently, several investigators opened a path in front of the convoy.
The group spent more than half an hour in this way and left the road shrouded in white mist.
"It's really no problem."
"Okay, you guys hurry up and get in the car. Next, we have to hurry up and arrive at stronghold No. 35."
The captain spoke, and the investigators responsible for opening the road quickly got into the car, and then the convoy started and accelerated towards the destination.
When all the investigators disappeared at the corner of the road in the distance, the sound of snoring could be heard in the area shrouded in white mist.
There seems to be a terrifying creature taking a nap somewhere in the fog-shrouded area.
…………
It had been raining all night and the ground was wet everywhere.
The early morning sunlight falls on the plants and is refracted by the water droplets, suddenly blooming with brilliant colors.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead leaned against the wall and sat in front of the campfire, squinting his eyes and resting.
When the sky outside the cave became brighter, he immediately opened his eyes, then stood up and came outside the cave.
"call……"
The air was fresh in the morning. I took a few deep breaths and felt comfortable all over.
As expected by the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead, the rain that fell yesterday did not last long.
Now he is bathing in the morning sunshine and feeling the cool breeze around him, feeling very good.
After returning to the cave, they had a simple breakfast, packed up their things, and then the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead began to continue on his way.
"Crash..."
A meandering river stretches into the distance and disappears on the horizon.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stopped at the river bank half an hour after leaving the cave.
Yesterday he was overlooking the grassland from a high place and did not see the river.
It seems that it was formed after heavy rain. Now if you want to cross this river, you have to think of some ways.
In the past, when the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead crossed the river, he would knock down a tree on the river bank and use the tree as a bridge to cross the river.
But now the surroundings are vast grasslands, with not a single decent tree.
Pick up a stone on the ground and throw it into the water. There is nothing unusual except for a splash of water.
