Chapter 1687: Promotion, Destroy All (Central)
Except for the rustling sound of the team moving forward and stomping dead leaves, there was no other sound around. The captain began to recall the situation when the airship was forced to land, but at that time everyone was busy coming out of the airship. It took a lot of time to deal with the injuries and carry the materials, so he didn't pay much attention to the surroundings.
The captain himself subconsciously considered the number of people in his team, and this quietness did not attract his attention at the time. Looking back at this moment, quietness existed when the airship landed and had nothing to do with the loud noise caused by the forced landing. The area where they were in which they were in an unknown range may have been shrouded by this quietness since a long time ago.
"It's too careless." After thinking about this, the captain immediately asked the team to stop and set up a simple defense circle on the spot. They had no idea how big the area was and which direction it was far away from the core area. Choose at will, it would be fine if the direction happened to leave, but if you move towards the core area, it is very likely to be regarded as a provocation. In this case, without detailed information, the normal process should first send personnel to investigate the surroundings, and then determine whether to detour or attack directly.
Most of the three-stage surgeons have been to one or two extreme areas for exercise. However, the extreme areas are also divided into many types. Southern forests, as the more special category, are divided into one type separately. There are different types of second-class organisms in the extreme areas, but compared with these organisms, the unique natural climate of most extreme areas plays the key to exercise. The situation of southern forests is completely opposite to that, the climate is so mild that it is no different from the ordinary world. On the contrary, the number and species of second-class organisms, as well as powerful individuals, are the most serious threats here.
"It would be great if he was with the people of the Holy Guard." The captain complained in his heart. They were all monsters. As long as there was one in the team, the safety of the entire itinerary could be effectively guaranteed. Be clear about the strength of his team members, the captain did not rule out that there might be more powerful among the thousands of prisoners. But at the beginning, his mission was just to transport these prisoners to the designated position and establish a line of defense. He never thought that he would encounter such things on the way. At this time, he would investigate the strength and ability of each prisoner, not to mention whether there was time or not. In the current situation, it was an unknown whether the prisoners would tell the truth.
I had to start from scratch and think about it. The captain went to the middle of the defense circle and decided to screen the prisoners the first step, at least knowing the areas that most people are good at. This is quite a distance from the joint team headquarters. If you walk without a mind, the time when the ammunition is exhausted will be the turning point for the entire team.
"I think everyone feels the abnormal quietness around them. I don't know what you think at the moment, but most of you who have been to various extreme areas should understand,,," a situation not too long. The captain finally hopes that those who are good at perception and exploration can help the team establish a simple reconnaissance network, first leave here safely, and avoid dangerous areas later.
"Are we going to respond?" The captain of the Holy Emperor Hall was on the side of the captain, and the three people beside an ancient tree were similar to the other thousand prisoners. The expression on his face was not good, but it was not bad. At this moment, he was talking about a man who was far thinner than others. His face was almost sunken and weak. You could even see the muscle curve that drove the movement of his jaw.
These three people seem to have known each other for a while, and have known each other for a while. The thin man looked at the person opposite him. The man was much stronger than him and seemed to be under any strict restrictions in prison. Apart from freedom, there was almost no difference between surgeons who were outside.
"Captain Gardner?" the thin man continued softly, "If you respond, you may be a little better in the future."
"Do you think this captain will help us in the future?" Gardner smiled, buried his head, and used his hands to snatch the bark on the bark of the ancient tree's exposed roots. "He doesn't have this right, and the best choice now is to remain silent. But his worry is correct. He has only now realized that something is wrong around him. It is the energy that has returned from the forced landing of the airship just now. There should be about twenty or thirty people in this team who noticed in advance."
"Hey, Fanya, speak. Don't be silent like me." Gardner said to a woman next to him. "Spend so much money to keep you two, it's not something that keeps you silent at this time."
"It's very dangerous. First, there is no smell. As a territory, many second-class creatures will rely on certain substances on their bodies to circle the territory and warn other invaders. But along the way, I didn't smell any smell. Second, the surrounding vegetation is very natural, unlike the range where a certain creature often moves. This may mean that this place will be a place for rest, which is closer to the actual location of the lord here. Third, I don't know if you have noticed it, it's a worrying point, and it's also the most dangerous point,"
"Tell me directly!" Gardner continued.
"It's about eight thousand meters away from the airship here. Captain, please let me pay attention to the surroundings. I didn't find any insects living here. Or, there is no small bug in this area."
"Isn't there any bird?" The thin man added coldly.
"Those harmless birds can become good friends with any type of second type of creature, living in the same area without being affected by each other. However, insects are different, small in size means small in mind and not thinking much, and they rely more on a process-based linear way to survive. In other words, survival depends more on instinct, especially in the face of danger. The lord creatures here instinctively make them feel dangerous, so they all leave. Usually, the danger represents serious, that is, the kind that will give life."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Is there any abnormal movement around?" Gardner trusts Fania very much, and his face looked ugly after hearing it. "I have been a mercenary for so long. Judging from your experience, can this team of thousands of people pass through in your analysis?"
"I don't know, captain. If I could analyze it, we wouldn't have been sent to prison for that commission five years ago. There are some dangers that cannot be judged. We have to fall on our bodies to know how heavy it is." Fannya and Gardner clasped the bark together. When the words came down, it happened that the captain of the Holy Emperor Hall finished speaking.
Only a few of the thousands responded to the captain's words, but most of them remained silent. The same was true for Gardner and the other two, always burying their heads.
"Would you like to find some people to go with me? The attitude of the team members in the Holy Emperor Hall probably won't care for themselves in order to protect themselves." The thin man suggested at this time.
"We must leave, but it's not now. We need to find a good opportunity. There must be a certain amount of this. This is the southern forest. The supplies carried by the three of us cannot go to the edge. If there is not enough supply, we will be torn into pieces by the second-class creatures in the middle." Gardner had already made a decision in his heart.
"Do you have to wait until the lord creatures in this area appear?"
"Fania, you say it's very dangerous. I don't want the three of us to meet the lords when we are leaving alone. This team has a big goal. It's not too late to leave until they are restrained and attracted attention. Didn't you see anyone around you without any movement? There are many people who have this idea, and it will be easier to gather a group of people to leave at that time."
"I understand, I will always pay attention to the surroundings," Fania responded. The members of the team in the Holy Emperor Hall had begun to divide the entire team into more than ten teams according to the temporary discussion plan. However, Fania raised her head while dragging the words in her mouth and looked at the sky above her head, which was covered by a tree crown. At the same time, in addition to Fania, the captain of the team in the Holy Emperor Hall, and more than a dozen other prisoners also made the same head-raising movements.
"Fania, is there something in the sky?" Gardner was nervous for a moment. He looked at the sky with the thin man, and his perception unfolded, but his eyes were full of confusion that he could not observe anything. The two of them stood up with Fania, observing the direction of Fania's gaze in the middle, and also looking there.
After nearly ten seconds, there was nothing. The thin man lowered his head first and observed the prisoners around him. The more Gardner sensed, even though he still couldn't sense anything, he always felt panic.
"It's better to run away, leave this defensive position first!" Fania spoke, and the next moment, the man had turned around and went a few meters away, "Hurry up!"
Gardner hesitated a little, followed by a stern look. The thin man slowed down half a beat. He looked at the Holy Emperor Hall. When he saw the captain suddenly turned around, said nothing, and strided towards the edge of the position, but walked for only five or six meters, as if he could not help it. His speed suddenly increased, leaving behind a shadow directly on the spot, with an extremely fast speed for a moment.
The thin man realized the seriousness and immediately followed Gardner and others who had run dozens of meters away. The "rustling" sounded almost at the same time. When the thin man who ran nearly fifty or sixty meters away turned around, more than a dozen huge underground rocks covered with soil had already broken through the tree crown and fell down with a bang.
The loud "dongdong" sound caused the ground to jump within a small range. Gardner was still yelling in front, asking the thin man to follow quickly. The defense circle with a diameter of two or three hundred meters behind had completely collapsed, and the team of thousands of people instantly dispersed toward the surroundings.
I hope it's not in my own direction. The thin man thought as he prayed and walked faster. At this moment, he had rushed out nearly two hundred meters away as Gardner and Fania rushed out. However, an abnormal light suddenly appeared inside the dim forest. The thin man turned around and looked through the silhouettes between the ancient trees. The defense circle position just now was bathed in a dazzling light.
This,,, is not the sunshine. At this moment, the only idea of the thin man was the only one. As for how the light came about, he had no idea. The whistling wind sounded in the thin man's ears disappeared, and then the physical light in his eyes suddenly surged.
