Most of the trees in the depths of the Forest of Silence are lush with branches and leaves, among which there are towering ancient trees with more than ten people hugging them. Standing in the forest and looking up, the sky above the forest seems to be covered with a dome of green leaves. The sun shines through the gaps in the branches and leaves and shines on the open space in the forest, leaving groups of mottled light and shadows. Although it was almost noon, the temperature in the forest was still not high, with a hint of refreshing coolness.
"Qin Lun..."
"Shut up!" Qin Lun covered the mouth of the elf boy beside him, not daring to move at all.
Early this morning, Cassie had already defeated a drugged wild rhino in the arena alone, met the conditions set by Master Weima for leaving the camp, and was no longer under the supervision of the ghost owl.
During the battle, Qin Lun also "helped him" as promised. However, Qin Lun did not summon his own hellfire dog, but at a critical moment, he used spiritism on the wild rhinoceros.
Manxi is as high as the fifth rank, and the upper limit of Qin Lun's remaining energy cannot meet the recruitment conditions. However, Qin Lun's own moon night elf blood has the ability to recruit moon nights and has a great affinity for jungle creatures. Man Xi was inevitably affected, and his will was shaken, so he was severely injured by Cassie, allowing him to win the battle.
At this time, the two were hiding in the canopy of a giant tree, and in front of the giant tree was a small hillside. There are no trees growing on the hillside, and the surrounding forest surrounds the hillside, forming a rare emptiness in the depths of the silent forest. Seen from above the forest, the hillside looked like an ugly scar.
The small hillside area not only has no trees, but also rarely sees vegetation. On the hillside, facing directly in front of Qin Lun and the others, there was a huge cave six meters high and four meters wide, with a large open space at the entrance. Obviously, this hillside is not formed naturally, but a nest opened up by a powerful creature.
The soil in the open space in front of the cave was a dirty dark brown, and there were many pale bones scattered around it. Some of the skeletons, even in the Silent Forest, can be called large animals, and they are shocking at first glance.
In the center of the clearing was a bonfire that had been extinguished, and a few broken bones could be seen in the ashes. On the left side of the clearing, there are several animal tibias as thick as bowl mouths. These tibias are four meters long, with their upper ends sharpened, standing upright like flagpoles. On one of the bone poles, an adult reindeer is pierced.
The tip of the bone rod is inserted into the reindeer's rump and emerges from the throat, hanging it like bacon. Under the bone pole was the pelvis of a giant creature, which contained half a basin of reindeer blood, which had congealed into jelly-like blood clots.
In addition, there was a bone pole on which half a piece of torn animal remains hung. Since the remains were beyond recognition, it was impossible to tell what kind of creature it was. Surprisingly, there is actually a pair of "clothes racks" next to it. This is a simple hanger made up of two fork-shaped animal fibulas and tree vines, on which several huge biological furs are dried.
With gusts of fresh wind blowing, a strong rancid smell poured into the nostrils of Qin Lun and Cassie, making them feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Qin Lun, why didn't you see the mountain giant you mentioned!" Cassie leaned close to Qin Lun's ear and asked softly.
"Maybe he's still sleeping in the cave!" Qin Lun said somewhat uncertainly, "The hill giant is very lazy, and only comes out to eat and bask in the sun at noon."
"Then let's take a closer look!" Cassie straightened up her upper body with great interest, and was about to climb down the tree.
"Come back to me!" Qin Lun was in a hurry, grabbed his trouser legs and dragged him back, suppressing his anger, he roared softly, "You don't want to die, the adult hill giant is as high as eighth rank, and according to the information, this place There are at least two giants, one big and one small, in the cave! If they find out, we will all die here."
"Didn't you say that the hill giants couldn't catch up with us in the forest? Ouch..." Cassie's big eyes flickered, and she looked at Qin Lun innocently with puffed up cheeks.
"Don't pretend to be cute! The hill giant is an eighth-level creature anyway, so there's no need to risk your life." Qin Lun slapped him on the back of the head angrily, "I regret taking you out, wait another five minutes, if Before the hill giant comes out, we'll go back right away!"
"Hey!" Cassie scratched her blond hair in embarrassment, and made a face at Qin Lun.
Qin Lun ignored him, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
"... five minutes is up, let's go back, don't wait any longer!" After a while, Qin Lun opened his eyes again, grabbed Cassie, and quietly crawled down the tree.
"You really can't wait?" Cassie's face was cloudy and uncertain, and his eyes were rolling.
"Don't give me any tricks, we still have a lot of time, I'll take you to see other things!" Qin Lun sternly warned the elf boy, "If you don't listen, I won't take you out next time!"
"What a pity!" Cassie licked her lips, looking regretfully at the cave not far ahead.
"Aw!" Just as the two of them descended the tree cautiously, and just left the hill giant's territory for more than ten minutes, a deafening roar came from that direction. This roar was extremely penetrating, and even two kilometers away, it still caused a commotion in the forest.
The birds perched in the canopy of the trees soared into the air one after another, casting a shadow over the heads of the two.
"Cassie, it's time for us to go back! Cassie?" Qin Lun raised his head, looking solemnly at a huge golden-eyed eagle passing above his head.
Unable to get a response from Cassie, Qin Lun was suddenly a little surprised, but when he lowered his head, he found that the young elf was running towards the hill giant's cave.
"Cassie..." Qin Lun roared angrily, and rushed towards the disobedient elf boy.
"It's all here, just take a look!" Cassie smiled and turned around and made a face.
"Idiot! You...be careful behind you..." Qin Lun looked at the elf boy angrily, but his expression changed immediately, and he opened his eyes and shouted.
From the dense bushes, a huge creature sprang out and rushed straight at Cassie whose back was turned to it. This creature looks like a hybrid of a wild boar and a hedgehog in the earth world. Under the arched snout, there are two huge three-foot-long fangs, and the back is covered with hedgehog spikes.
This kind of creature is called the Arrow Howling Beast, a fifth-order creature. It is only a low-level creature in the center of the Silent Forest. It does not have magical abilities. It only relies on long fangs and arrows that can be shot out from its back to hunt.
However, the arrow beast is irritable by nature. Once it is provoked, it dares to charge even in the face of high-level creatures. In addition, the Jianhao beast is extremely powerful, with arrow thorns far away and fangs near it. Among all fifth- and sixth-order creatures, it is a very difficult type.
This adult arrow beast is more than two meters tall, nearly four meters long, and weighs at least 4,000 pounds. At this moment, it was startled by the roar of the hill giant, and was in a frenzy. When it saw the elf boy in front of it, its eyes were bloodshot immediately, and it rushed away without stopping.
Cassie couldn't see what was going on behind him, but he could feel the stench coming from behind him, his face changed slightly, his feet stopped, and he dexterously threw himself out to the side. However, although his reaction was quick, it was a bit late at this time, and the fangs of the arrow beast were only less than one meter away from his waist.
"Cancel the pre-judgment mode, directly call the preset shooting model, and enter the specific calculation..."
"Forest terrain, the current wind force is level 3, the shooting target is a large creature, the target is 10 o'clock, the body height is 2.2 meters, the distance is 12.2 meters, and the elevation angle is 4.2 degrees..."
"The target body speed is 14.2 m/s, and the sprint acceleration fluctuates by 1.2-3 m/s..."
"The shooting point is set to target the left eye, there is a human obstacle at the end of the trajectory, and the original shooting model is abolished..."
"Activate the second of the third type of preset gun skills - refracting ballistics..."
"The length of both arms cannot meet the requirements of ballistics. The body needs to be vacated horizontally. The angle between the two bullets is 31.2 degrees, and the interval is 0.22 seconds..."
"Shooting plan evaluation: Insufficient calculation data, 83% success rate!"
Qin Lun's eyes were blank for a moment, and he stepped on his left foot expressionlessly, his body soared into the air like stepping on a trampoline, horizontally in the air with a back-and-forth high jump, and the funeral of light and darkness appeared in his hands at some point.
"Bang bang!" Two Colt revolvers, one white and one black, shot out a burst of flames one after another, and the bullet in the left-hand Devil's Song was strangely deflected, almost shooting towards the two o'clock direction of the arrow beast. However, the bullet of Angel's Praise on the right is a little slower, and it shoots straight to the direction of 12 o'clock, but it is also not aimed at the arrow porcupine.
Although the two golden bullets were fired in different directions, due to the different shooting time before and after, and Qin Lun's body flying horizontally in the air, an included angle of about 30 degrees was formed immediately.
"Ding!" The trajectories of the two bullets crossed in the air, and the bullet from Angel's Praise just hit the side of the Devil's Song bullet, causing it to instantly change the direction of the trajectory and shoot towards the arrow beast. Moreover, due to the acceleration of the impact, the speed of this bullet reached an incredible state, hitting the arrow beast like a bolt of lightning.
Of course, a small bullet can't stop the giant beast's final sprint, but if the shot is in the eye, then this small metal bullet can still bring great pain and trauma to the arrow beast.
"Aww!" Arrow Hao Beast cried out in pain as expected, it stamped its hooves, and stood up. The sharp fangs that were as sharp as knives skimmed under Cassie's body by an inch, and with a chirping sound, they tore through the elf boy's pants, allowing him to hang on the long fangs.
"Crack!" Qin Lun fell from the air and fell to the ground, the focus appeared in his eyes again, and he escaped from the state of self-hypnosis.
Qin Lun didn't care to check whether he was injured, and quickly raised his head to look at Cassie and Jianhao Beast. After seeing it, he couldn't laugh or cry. One eye of the arrow beast was closed tightly, and there was a streak of dirty blood hanging from the eye socket, and it was crawling into the bushes with its tail between its legs, and was sprinting away crazily, with Cassie dangling left and right hanging on its fangs.
The elf boy danced and danced, closed his eyes and screamed with a pale face, a big hole was broken in the leather pants hanging on the fangs of the arrow beast, revealing half of his snow-white buttocks.
"Qin Lun, save me..." The arrow beast carrying Cassie quickly went away, leaving behind the screams of the elf boy along the way.
