In the early morning, feeling the moist and refreshing air in the morning, Aoki jumped down from a big tree and landed steadily on the dewy grass.
He stretched out and made several bones-colliding sounds from his body.
Following Aoki's movements, the elves came down from the tree one by one.
This forest is somewhat different from the forest outside Manjin City. First of all, the level of elves is generally higher. To be on the safe side, Aoki and the others slept in the trees last night.
And in his heart, Aoki kept thinking about the dark figure that stared at him yesterday. Although he didn't appear all night, he couldn't completely relax.
After a good sleep, I felt refreshed.
After a day of traveling, the iceberg, which originally seemed a little far away, finally seemed to be approaching today.
Through the dense leaves in the woods, you can already see some larger stones and textures on the mountain.
But similarly, the temperature in the air also dropped as it approached the iceberg.
After hastily finishing breakfast, we set out on our journey again.
Because the elves in the forest generally have a relatively high level, Aoki and the others are not traveling very fast.
Moreover, there are obvious territorial divisions in this forest. Some individually powerful elves occupy a territory, and some occupy a territory because of their strong ethnic groups.
But one thing is the same, they are all very exclusive.
It's okay to say that a single powerful elf has a territory that is too big for them to take care of. As long as Aoki is careful, he can always avoid it and escape smoothly no matter what happens.
However, ethnic group territories are more troublesome, because they tend to be larger in number and can take care of all parts of the territory. If you step in accidentally, you may be ruthlessly expelled or even hunted down.
What troubles Aoki more is the giant sting wasp.
Although the Giant Needle Bee is an elf from the Kanto region, there are also many of them in the Chengdu region, but they are less prevalent than in the Kanto region.
But as long as there is one in a forest, it will grow like crazy.
If it weren't for the many natural enemies, Aoki felt that with the reproduction speed of elves like the Giant Needle Bee, they would definitely be able to rule the elven world.
Fortunately, there are quite a few natural enemies.
During the unicorn period, it often became one of the main foods of Bobo and Spearow. After evolving into the Great Needle Bee, elves such as Circle Bears even used their honey as food, and many flying elves also
Feed on them.
But even so, they are still one of the largest groups in the forest.
Just now, Aoki, who accidentally strayed into the territory of the giant needle bees, was kicked out by them. The densely packed number made Aoki's scalp numb when he saw it.
The population of giant needle bees here is much larger than the colony of giant needle bees that Aoki encountered on the trial island, and the level is also much higher.
After Dark Crow and the others teamed up to kill swarms of giant sting wasps, they completely angered the entire group, and that's why they ended up being kicked out.
"Huhu..." After completely getting rid of all the giant sting wasps, Aoki was still a little out of breath with his current physical condition.
"Milu~" The big milk jug delivered a glass of fresh milk at the right time.
After relaxing his breathing a little, he forced a smile, touched the head of the big milk jug gratefully, and drank all the milk in one go.
After drinking a glass of milk, I felt that my physical strength had recovered.
I wiped off the milk stains on my mouth and was about to speak when I suddenly felt that familiar feeling of being watched again!
And this time the feeling was even more obvious. It was obvious that the dark figure was getting closer and closer to them.
"It seems, if I don't feel wrong, is that what you are looking at?" Aoki looked at the cup in his hand, the cup filled with milk that he had just finished drinking.
In order to verify his conjecture, Aoki took out a spare large bottle of milk from the ring, and his gaze suddenly moved from the empty cup to the milk he just took out.
Then he thought about the fact that when he was watched for the first time, after fighting two Team Rocket soldiers, the big milk can gave Dark Crow and the others some milk to replenish their physical strength.
The second time when they felt they were being watched, it was Dark Crow and the others who couldn't beat the cat boss, so they relied on the milk from the big milk can to replenish their energy and finally defeated him.
After combining all three times, Aoki found the reason.
"That thing, is it focused on milk?" Aoki felt a little strange.
It is not ruled out that the milk in the big milk jug is indeed very attractive, but there is no need to keep watching secretly like this, making Aoki think that some malicious creature is eyeing him.
Now that he knew the target was not on him, Aoki breathed a sigh of relief.
Placing the glass bottle filled with milk on the ground, Aoki signaled Dark Crow and the others not to do anything special.
Immediately, he slowly left with the elves, leaving only a bottle of milk in a large milk jug on the ground.
...
Ten minutes later, there was a bottle of milk on the ground in the woods. Aoki, Dark Crow and the others were standing on a big tree from a distance, shielding their figures through the dense leaves.
This bottle of milk had been sitting on the ground for ten minutes, but the mysterious black shadow hadn't appeared yet. Just when Aoki was about to give up, something changed.
Almost in the blink of an eye, a black shadow fell from a tree near the grass, then without stopping, picked up the milk on the ground, dodged and disappeared again.
"This is?!" Aoki looked closely in that direction just now. Although the black shadow was moving very fast, he still saw something else.
Vaguely, I seemed to see a touch of red and a slight white light above the black shadow.
But his back was to his side, and the speed was too fast, so Aoki couldn't see it clearly.
"Dark Crow, catch up and take a look!" Aoki said.
Since you can't see clearly, you should catch up and see clearly what it is. You can't forget the milk in the big milk jug.
After hearing Aoki's order, the Dark Crow flapped its wings and took off without hesitation, flying in the direction where the black shadow disappeared.
Aoki followed behind with Slowpoke and Big Milk Can.
This is a forest, so we can't devote all our attention to chasing. We have to be constantly on guard against wild elves that suddenly appear and attack.
Whether intentionally or not, the direction in which the black shadow disappeared was exactly the direction of the iceberg.
Half an hour later, Aoki, who was really unable to run, was resting next to a small lake.
Two such strenuous and continuous runs in one day made him a little bit too much. Even if he drank another bottle of milk from a large milk can, it didn't have much effect. His body had reached its limit.
"Gah~~"
Not long after, Dark Crow came back, and he described it with his wings rather embarrassedly. The opponent was very fast and knew the terrain very well, so he lost track of him.
"It doesn't matter. He cares about the milk in the big milk jug and will probably come again. I have a little guess about what he is, or he knows some kind of elf." Aoki calmed down his breathing and comforted.
