Chapter 126 Surprise
Just eating the delicious roasted chicken in clear water, Laura felt that her luck was not that bad. Before she came here, she found the lost backpack of her partner. The other things were not very useful, but there was an intercom [Shuquge www.shuquge.xyz] machine, and she could try to use the intercom to get in touch with her partners.
"What are your plans next?" Laura looked at Louis tidying up his 'backpack' there, guessing that he was counting the supplies in his hands: "We can find a way to get out of here together."
"I don't know what to do next. The communication device used for help fell into the sea. Maybe we should find a way to send a help signal?" Louis continued to make up a lie so that he could act with Laura reasonably.
It was not that he was greedy for Laura and wanted to stay by her, but that the key to leaving the island this time was to destroy Queen Himehu:
The right container that Queen Hamihu has always wanted to find to enable herself to resurrect. After countless years of waiting, Shanmantha finally came to the island and was captured by the Sun Brotherhood who "served herself" and sent to Queen Hamihu.
This Shanmantha is Laura's good friend. Laura cannot sit by and watch her friend become the container for Queen Hamikhu's resurrection, which means that she will try every means to find trouble for Queen Hamikhu and rescue her good friend from the Queen who holds evil power.
That is to say, Laura and Louis are in the same camp. No matter how you look at it, it is more reliable to work together than running around on the island alone.
"I have a communicator, we can try to contact my partner first." Laura took out the communicator she picked up. Without waiting for Louis to react, she began to try to contact her partner in front of Louis. However, after a few minutes, no response came from the communicator.
Laura seemed a little disappointed, and Louis had to comfort the young and young adventurer: "Maybe it's too far from your partner? When the rain stops, we will go around to see the environment before deciding how to go."
Louis originally planned to find a high place and figure out the overall environment. Now he didn't need it anymore. He already knew where he had come and was going to take Laura directly to the beach and meet with her partners.
While comforting Laura, Louis also 'hanged' some of the equipment he must use on his body, such as a short knife, flashlight, gun holster, etc., and then took out a kettle and a few pieces of chocolate and handed it to Laura.
"You bring these with you, and if there is any problem, you can use them for emergency response."
"Thank you, you are really a very good person. It's my luck to meet you at this time." Laura's English accent sounded pretty good, but what she said made Louis always feel strange.
"You're welcome, the rain has stopped. Let's go around to see the situation first." The two of them roasted chicken here, bandaged the wound, and rested for a while. Not only did the rain stop, but the dark clouds in the sky completely dispersed, and the bright sunshine shone on their faces again, making the whole person feel warm... a hot batch.
Louis had already begun to feel the strange climate change of the island, but instead of taking off his leather jacket, he put it on his body so open, and walked backpack on his back to the road he had walked before.
"Be careful." The jungle that has just been wet with rain is difficult to walk, and one foot deep and one foot shallow, and it is easy to slip. Compared to the splashing mud and water, it is no longer a big deal.
Fortunately, Louis wore training pants and military boots, and Laura wore work pants and boots that were easy to move. It was the most suitable equipment for this environment and suffered a lot less.
After walking through the jungle for a while, I soon saw a stream, and there was a military building similar to a bunker across the stream.
"What the hell is this place?" Laura looked diagonally above, on the branches of the big tree next to the bunker, where there was a dried corpse hanging.
"It should be a military fortress built by the Japanese army during World War II." The fortress was obviously a modern or modern military building. Considering the location of the island, the answer was already very obvious: "But I don't know what happened to the body carrying a bow and arrow."
Laura and Louis crossed the stream on several stones, standing under the big tree and looking at the corpse above. Louis quickly withdrew his gaze and turned his head to look at Laura who was still staring at the corpse: "What are you thinking?"
"That bow may come in handy." Laura has been learning bows and arrows from her father since she was a child. On this strange island, in a dangerous jungle, she also wanted to bring a weapon to defend herself: "We can also use bows and arrows to get food."
Laura felt that there was no way Louis had too much supplies in his backpack. Perhaps the chicken was the last food reserve in the backpack. Even if there were foods in it, that is, chocolate, energy bars and other things - those things can only be used for emergency response and are not suitable for meals.
After glanced around, Laura came up with a suitable way forward in a short time and knew how to do it, and could get the simple longbow hanging on the tree.
"What are you going to do?" Louis could have helped Laura take off the longbow, but Laura now didn't want Louis to help.
Maybe Laura had something in her bones that didn't rely on others, and everything was based on her own genes. After confirming that she could easily get this thing, she didn't think that she was still injured. Instead, she climbed up to the fortress next to her, jumped from the roof of the fortress to the stone platform on the other side, and then came from the stone platform to the branches of the big tree, and walked to the next to the mummy.
"Forehead……"
Laura estimated the distance and found that it seemed difficult to touch the mummy hanging upside down on another tree branch, but she was unwilling to give up at this time. After all, she was only a little bit away from success.
The consequence of trying hard to reach out and forcibly poking out his body was that Laura successfully grabbed the longbow and pulled the longbow and the mummy from the branches and fell to the ground.
The price was that she herself fell off the branch and experienced a short period of free fall.
Laura, who was about to bear the impact with her eyes closed, did not feel the pain. She opened her eyes in surprise and found that she was being held in Louise's arms.
"Are you okay?" Without holding her, Laura opened her eyes and Louis put down Laura's legs and let her stand on the ground by herself.
"I'm fine." Laura looked at Louis in surprise, but she didn't expect that the other party could catch her, and she was so steadily: "Thank you... It seems that after meeting you, I have been saying this word."
"You don't have to be so polite, keep saying thank you." Louis bent down and took off the quiver from the mummy's body, and handed it to Laura.
Laura took the quiver and opened her mouth and wanted to thank her again, but she changed her mouth temporarily: "Then I won't be polite to you."
He pulled the bowstring and checked the situation of the simple longbow. He also tried to shoot a few arrows at the big tree next to him, and found out the situation of the longbow.
"The power is pretty good, it's enough for hunting." This simple longbow and arrow made of local materials cannot be expected to have too strong power and accuracy, and can have lethality within a certain range. It is already a good weapon. In this case, Laura cannot ask too much.
Retrieve all the arrows into the quiver, Laura and Louis stood next to the fort, looking at the surrounding environment and thinking about what to do next?
"Follow the creek? Maybe you can walk to the beach?" Louis looked around, and he vaguely remembered that in the game plot, Laura went from the tunnel in the fort to the next area. And in this real world, they had more choices: "Please look at what useful things are there first?"
"Look at what's here first." Laura felt that moving along the stream was a way. Her idea was to walk to the beach as much as possible, and it would be easier to find her companions there.
At this moment, the dark clouds that had completely dissipated gathered again, blocking the bright sunshine in the sky again, and sprinkling cold water drops.
"Damn it, it's raining again." Louis felt that it wasn't that stuffy and uncomfortable just now. It turned out that it was going to rain again. The climate of this island is really changing and makes people feel broken.
"What should I do now?" Laura looked at Louis. Faced with this kind of question, she prefers to ask others for advice rather than to make decisions on her own.
"Two options, go back to the mountain wall where we were sheltered from before." They could collect more firewood on the way back, raise the bonfire and wait for the rain to stop: "Or we collect firewood on the spot and rest in this fort."
Louis pointed to the fortress next to him. The fortress also has the function of sheltering from the wind and rain, but they hadn't checked it inside yet and didn't know what was going on.
Laura looked at the fortress in front of her and looked back at the direction they came over. In the end, she did not make a choice. She just looked at Louis with her eyes wide open. Her meaning was very clear: Let Louis make an idea.
"It's time to shelter from the rain here, there is no need to go back and forth."
Louis walked to the gate of the fortress, opened the rusty iron gate, leaned out and looked inside, and found that the situation inside the fortress could be seen clearly at a glance: there was nothing left, the only thing that made people care about was the authentic entrance that didn't know where it led.
Laura stood beside Louis, and also leaned into her body and looked inside: "Where does that tunnel lead to?"
"I don't know, we can go down and take a look." Louis was not in a hurry to go to the 'next map', but reminded Laura and the others to light a torch first, and then go into the tunnel to check.
