[What you have to do is to avoid the invasion of the strange jungle and the people who come from the same place as you. The points obtained by eliminating other players will still be valid]
[Then, move to the north, where the exit is. You have three days to escape from this prison. If you don’t leave at the end of time... you will stay here forever]
At the bottom of the note was a simple hand-drawn map. The location of the hut was marked with a cross, surrounded by marks representing dozens of forest huts, and an arrow pointing to the left.
"Third level?"
"We don't know, that's what the note said." The figure who was talking to Lu Li replied.
Compare the rudimentary map with the complete map brought by the merchant. The forest huts are distributed in a strange dense forest from south to north, but are sparsely scattered on the east and west ends, making the forest huts distributed like stars like a path through the forest.
Lu Li found the location of the hut in front of him from the complete map. After comparison, he found that the mark of the hut in the forest on the hand-drawn map was almost accurate: he was in the middle of the strange dense forest, not too far or too close to the northern exit. At least it was better than the players who appeared at the southern end of the forest.
.
With doubts about the third level written on it, Lu Li handed the note back to Blood Crow.
The bird's beak holding the small white flower in its mouth opened slightly. It held the note and the flower in its mouth at the same time, spread out its rotten wings covered with blood, and flew back to the forest cabin.
A shadow hanging in the dark sky descended, silently strangulating the blood crow in flight.
The note fell from the loose beak of the bird and landed in an open space dozens of meters away from the forest hut. The blood-stained flowers then slowly fell.
There was a commotion in the forest cabin for a moment, and a figure holding a torch rushed out.
Lu Li noticed that the torch was extinguished very quickly. This change had nothing to do with the wind, but was almost a annihilation.
There is also a strong hatred lingering around the body of the person who rushed out.
None of these Lu Li were encountered even though a bonfire was set up when they first entered.
The person who rushed out picked up the note. The torch that should have burned for more than ten minutes only burned for a few seconds and was completely extinguished with a "pop".
Fortunately, the figure managed to escape back to the cabin before the trembling terror that filled his head came.
Soon, the conversation figure reappeared at the door of the wooden house: "Sir Lu Li, do you need to rest in the forest cabin?"
Lu Li declined his invitation.
Although standing in the wild consumes humanity every moment, the forest hut in front of him has obviously been cleaned, and it is not a familiar camp, so it is not suitable for Lu Li to join.
Walking past the lush grass and blooming wild flowers that reached his knees, Lu Li walked towards the nearest forest hut in the north.
People in the wooden house watched Lu Li leave, and their eyes fell on the land where he stayed for too long. The vibrant grass seemed to be shimmering with light, and even the silence of the dark forest was transformed into tranquility, gradually making their hearts peaceful.
…
[Think of the strange dense forest as winter, and the invasion of darkness as a blizzard. Before being frozen to death by the biting cold, hide in a sheltered wooden house to stay warm as soon as possible]
The description of the strange jungle in the book is realistic enough, but it does not apply to Lu Li.
The dangers of the strange jungle are more like dark disasters to him. Although they are equally dangerous and deadly, they have time as a buffer.
Lu Li's [Tree Whisperer] originated from the spirit of the ancestors, the common mother of all trees.
He allowed Lu Li to become a kindred spirit and a friend of trees as a human being. However, for beings with consciousness, [Tree Whisperer] is just an identity and a kind of recognition.
But there are always children with different personalities who will have different opinions from their mothers.
Like a plant habitat. Many of the plants that live there have self-awareness and believe in the spirits of their ancestors. They choose to get along with each other in a friendly manner. This kind of friendliness is also subdivided into gratitude, intimacy and more emotions.
In the Weird Jungle, it or their attitude changed in some way due to the "Tree Whisperer". This made Lu Li not hated by the Weird Jungle like others, nor was he treated as friendly as in the plant habitat.
It's more like a kind of indifference.
Therefore, Lu Li could be like a pedestrian trapped in the darkness of despair and silence, clutching a box of matches. Using the light brought by the brief burning of the match and the perceived long darkness, he walked towards the bright light in the distance in panic and terror.
There were saplings like footprints left behind, and giant trees like Optimus Pillar stood quietly around him. The proportions between humans and the terrifying giant trees made Lu Li like a flickering firefly floating in the dark forest.
Twenty minutes later, Lu Li, who had walked three or four miles in the strange jungle, found a forest hut at the location marked on the map.
It is small and located at the foot of a few dozen meters away from the giant tree. Only its outline is visible in the darkness. There is no firelight in the windows. It seems that it has not been touched by other players.
Looking at ourselves, this distance consumes nearly 1 share of humanity.
After the exhaustion that could drag the cursed title holder into the abyss, Lu Li still had 33 pieces of humanity left.
Maintaining the flickering frequency of fireflies, Lu Li walked towards the wooden house that seemed to be assimilated into the forest. But as he got closer, Lu Li saw the wooden door of the forest house open, and there were a few breathing sounds in the wooden house.
Not long ago, three contestants who rushed to the forest cabin one after another were facing off.
Their eyes fell on the new intruder at the same time.
When it was discovered that the new arrival was the famous exorcist, the knight wearing the badge of the Eternal Knights showed excitement, and the Conspiracy Spider Web God players also relaxed a little. Only the stranger from the old sewer front had an ugly face and cursed in an incomprehensible language.
, suddenly broke through the window and escaped.
They didn't know yet about the alliance between the Old Sewer Front players and the Conspiracy Spiderweb Gods players in a forest cabin three or four miles away.
The knight gestured to Lu Li by stroking his chest and staring at the conspiracy spider web left behind by the God system player.
"Your Excellency Lu Li, your story has been engraved in my mind since I was a child." The Conspiracy Spider Web God player with sickly pale cheeks smiled unnaturally and was not good at it.
The cabin in the forest returned to peace with the arrival of Lu Li.
The Conspiracy Spider Web player even took the initiative to light the fireplace and exposed his back to show that he was harmless.
The light yellow flame gradually dissipated the darkness of the wooden house, revealing the original appearance of things dormant in the darkness.
A wooden table, a single bed, leftover cans, useless clothes and discarded notes were thrown in the corner, and a stuffed deer head hung on the old wooden wall, as if it were just an ordinary hunter's cabin.
The gradually growing warm firelight melted away the hostile atmosphere created by the confrontation.
At this time, they heard the distant footsteps outside the wooden house reappearing.
The escaped old sewer front player reappeared, his body burning with flames and rushing towards him. However, it was only delayed for a few seconds when it set its hair on fire like a self-inflicted wound.
The unburned flames extinguished unnaturally, shadows fell from the sky, and the charred outlines were still some distance away from the hut.
The twilight falls and the shadows shrink.
The figure that should have been strangled at a desperate distance from the forest cabin jumped into the cabin.
