Although the two were shocked by the crocodile's ice element ability, they did not stop moving. Kate drew her bow and arrow from behind, aiming at the crocodile's eyes. Steven was still retreating sideways, seducing the crocodile to rush over.
He is waiting for an opportunity to arise.
At this time, Kate shot an arrow. He was less than 10 meters away from the crocodile. The arrow flashed into the left eye of the crocodile. The crocodile opened its mouth and was about to pounce on Steven when he suddenly felt a light coming from his own eye.
In severe pain, he couldn't help but stop and shake his head, and at the same time let out a roar.
Steven was waiting for this opportunity, and immediately rushed forward with his knife in hand. In an instant, he came to the side of the crocodile. The crocodile was shaking its head, as if trying to throw out the arrow stuck in its eye. Steven came to it and was
As for the blind eye, it didn't notice him at all.
Steven closed the arm holding the straight knife, looked at the position of the crocodile's eye, stabbed it out with the hand holding the handle of the knife, and the sharp tip of the straight knife inserted diagonally into the crocodile from the eye with the arrow inserted.
In his mind, Steven then drew his knife and jumped back, then retreated to Kate's side.
The crocodile was fatally injured at this time and was rolling on the ground. Blood kept spurting out from its injured eyes. After a while, it slowly stopped struggling.
The two cautiously approached the crocodile lying on the ground and confirmed that it was dead. Steven straightened the crocodile's body, then took a step to measure its length, and said with some amazement: "Kate, the length of this crocodile is
Nearly 10 meters! What a huge guy! Are all creatures mutated by elemental forces this huge?"
Kate pulled out the arrow stuck in the crocodile's eye, and then said: "It's very likely! That spider is probably in the same situation! Compared to that spider, it's not particularly exaggerated! In addition, this mutated crocodile,
I wonder if the meat on it can still be eaten?"
Steven said loudly: "This should be edible! Kate, look at the red blood flowing from its wound! If it is black or brown, then you have to think about it!"
As Steven spoke, he cut off the crocodile's tail with a straight knife without stopping. He cut off the inedible parts of the tail and threw them away. He then lifted the middle part of the tail over his shoulder.
Kate said: "Let's go, Kate! There is another delicious food waiting for us tonight! Later we can find some spices such as thyme and wild onions in the jungle, and mix them with some wild vegetables and purple berries, and we will eat them tonight
Grill the crocodile meat!”
Kate shook her head and said nothing, turned around, picked up the backpack on the ground, and walked towards the jungle. Steven also picked up the backpack and followed Kate to the edge of the jungle. The two of them changed into leather boots on the ground and tied their leggings before entering the jungle.
They headed south along the junction of the jungle and the swamp, and continued walking after lunch. After walking for several hours, the swamp still had no end. It seemed that the swamp was very vast.
The two stopped to rest for a while and checked the direction. Fortunately, the direction they were heading towards was along the edge of the swamp, heading due south. The two ignored it and began to look for wild vegetables and spices while moving forward.
As well as collecting purple berries, when it was almost time to camp, the two found a piece of flat land. After cleaning it, they set up a tent and lit a bonfire. Steven carried the crocodile tail and ran to the edge of the swamp, peeled off the skin from the crocodile tail in the water, and
The meat is cleaned and brought back to the camp.
That night, the two of them enjoyed another delicious feast of grilled crocodile meat. The meat on the tail was firm, elastic, and extremely tender. After being roasted with spices, the two of them had mouths full of oil, even if
After a big meal, there was too much meat left, enough for the two of them to eat for the next two days, so they wrapped the remaining barbecue in banana leaves and prepared it for consumption in the next two days.
After waking up, the two packed up and set off again. They walked along the junction of the swamp and the jungle for another three days. After crossing a small river, they finally left the swamp and entered the rainforest.
With Steven's perception and the two's archery skills, it was very easy to hunt prey in this rain forest. Because they had a lot of uneaten crocodile meat, they did not go hunting anymore.
He was traveling due south at a normal speed, occasionally collecting some plants and fruits such as purple berries on the way to supplement his meat diet.
Although it is the dry season, it still rains frequently in the rainforest. It rains heavily for several hours almost every other day. It usually starts in the early morning and stops when the sun is about to rise. The two of them are like this.
We walked south through the rainforest for another 3 days.
This was the 10th day of their march to the south. According to the plan before departure, they should change direction and turn eastward today. They discussed it during the morning meal and decided to turn eastward after lunch.
East.
After a simple breakfast, Steven still led the way with a machete, and Kate followed behind, walking forward in the jungle, listening to the chirping of birds and beasts along the way. The morning passed quickly, and the two stopped.
They came down to prepare for lunch. The two of them combined the last few pieces of grilled crocodile meat with picked wild plantains and purple berries for lunch. After eating, they sat on the ground and prepared to take a rest. Kate took out the compass and was checking the direction.
Steven suddenly woke up! He felt that something seemed to be locked on him in the dense forest directly in front of him, but he found nothing neither with sight nor hearing. However, he believed in his intuition, and the feeling of being locked was not strong.
, seemed to be looming in the distance, slowly approaching them. This feeling had never appeared before, and Steven couldn't help but become more alert.
He whispered to Kate: "Kate! I feel locked by something! But this feeling is very different from before. The other party seems to have no intention of launching an attack. It is still 50 meters away in perception, and may not be close yet.
To the distance where an attack can be launched."
Kate frowned after hearing this and asked softly: "Do you feel it is one thing or several? In what direction?" Steven replied: "It's right in front of me. I'm not sure how many there are now.
But there seems to be more than one." Kate looked at the compass again and said: "Directly in front of you is the southwest, and we happen to be turning to the east. We don't know what the other party is now, so let's retreat eastward!"
Steven nodded and said: "Then let's retreat to the east immediately. They are slowly approaching here. I can sense more than one!"
The two immediately stood up, put on their backpacks, took out their weapons, and quickly retreated towards the east. Steven asked Kate to lead the way, and he was a few meters behind. He had already held the straight knife in his hand. In his perception, there were at least three things.
