Time, push forward a little bit.
A clearing on the outskirts of the forest.
Pangbo Anne, who has short ear-length hair, is standing with a medium-sized suitcase at her feet. Next to them, Nancy with a ponytail and Gro with dead eyes were also standing, each with two huge lead boxes beside them.
Be quiet and wait.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes...
Ten minutes later, Gro's dead fish eyes had evolved into dead sheep eyes, and his pupils were so boring that they almost turned into vertical lines. He couldn't help but make a sound, looked at Annie and asked: "I said, your response team over there is Why aren't you coming?"
"Shut up." Anne responded coldly, without giving any face.
Gro was frustrated and wanted to be angry, but he felt that he was definitely no match for Annie, and Nancy, his companion next to him, would most likely not help him, so he reluctantly opened and closed his mouth and sighed.
Okay, shut up, just shut up! When the time comes, you ask me to open my mouth, but I won’t open my mouth unless you beg me!
Grotto thought in his heart to comfort himself.
Just when he closed his mouth, Nancy spoke, looked at Anne and asked, "It's been a long time, and the person you arranged to lead the way never showed up. We can't keep waiting, right?"
After hearing this, Annie blinked and nodded in agreement: "That's true. How about... go deeper into the forest and see what's going on?"
"Okay." Nancy nodded, reached a consensus with Annie, picked up the box and walked into the forest.
Gro stared beside him, feeling a little confused: Why would he be scolded when he spoke, but nothing would happen if Nancy asked the same question
Is this deliberately targeting him
definitely is!
Gro thought unhappily, but still obediently picked up the heavy lead box and followed.
…
Deep into the forest, deeper into the forest.
Several miles into the forest, Annie, Nancy, and Groo almost stopped in unison, looked around, and showed alert expressions. There is no other reason than that something is wrong with this forest right now.
What exactly was wrong, Gro couldn't tell, but that was all.
Nancy looked at Annie and asked, "Isn't it a little too quiet in this forest?"
"Yeah." Annie nodded, obviously aware of it.
"What's going on?" Nancy asked, "This is not normal. It's not winter. There can't be any animals, and there are no chirping insects or birds."
"I'm not sure." Anne hesitated and replied, "The last time I came here, it wasn't like this. Everything was normal."
"This is your territory. Even you, one of your own, don't know what's going on here?" Nancy frowned.
"Don't be so absolute." Anne said with a straight face, "Although this is our territory, it is not under my control. I only come here about once a month, and it is no better than you."
"What now?" Nancy asked.
"Should we stop being vigilant and continue to go deeper? If there is still no response, we will leave and temporarily suspend this transaction. I will explain the situation to Mr. Richard and then set the time and place for the next transaction. ." Anne suggested.
Nancy thought for a few seconds, nodded, and agreed: "That's it."
"Okay, I'll lead the way." Annie said, and was about to walk to one side. Suddenly, a leg that had just been taken out suddenly retracted, and she quickly turned her head to look in one direction.
Nancy looked aware of it.
Gro was a beat slow, but at least he was aware of it and followed it.
"Ho ho! Ho ho!"
Strange screams rang out, and more than twenty weird creatures rushed out, surrounding the three of them with evil looks.
"This is this?" Nancy looked at it, frowned, turned her head slightly and looked at Anne and asked, "What are these?"
Annie also frowned, looked at the strange creatures and shook her head: "I don't know, I have never seen such a being, at least not before. Look at their heads, they are so strange, and they have bone blades on their bodies. They are completely different from ordinary ones." animal."
"So are they enemies or friends?" Grok swallowed his saliva and asked, guessing unconfidently, "They should be friends, right? I remember that the first time I came here, I encountered a group of tall beasts that were not very polite. , maybe it just changed its appearance now, we... "
"Roar!"
Before Gro could finish his words, more than twenty weird creatures suddenly pounced on him and launched an attack.
"Hmph, it seems you guessed wrong, Mr. Smart!" Annie mocked rudely and stepped forward to meet him. With a flick of his sleeve, a silver round stick more than twenty centimeters long slipped out. He was held firmly by his right hand and poured in mana. The air suddenly gathered at the front of the stick, creating a light blue wind blade more than ten centimeters long.
Annie held this weapon and faced a strange hyena creature, accurately cutting the wind blade into the opponent's head.
Nancy didn't hesitate, reached into her arms, and pulled out a soft piece of cloth. Injecting mana, the cloth straightened suddenly and turned into a long sword with three fingers wide, with a faint energy sheen on the surface. Nancy held her sword and quickly slashed at the head of a strange hyena creature. She exerted force and chopped off the head.
After watching this scene, Gro was embarrassed to be stunned. He took out a slightly curved staff from his clothes and began to chant and cast spells nervously.
…
"Ho ho ho!"
"Puff!"
"Boom!"
Time continued to pass, and Annie, Nancy, and Gro were fighting nervously with more than 20 weird creatures.
The main force in the battle was, not surprisingly, two girls, Annie and Nancy, who constantly blocked the attacks of strange creatures and caused a lot of damage. As for Gro, he was forced to be relegated to a supporting position. Apart from casting some strengthening spells on Annie and Nancy, or repelling the strange creatures that occasionally rushed up, he rarely had direct contact with strange creatures.
Gro was naturally unwilling to accept this, and wanted to stand up many times to prove his strength, but before he could take action, he was yelled at by Annie and Nancy.
"What do you want to do? Send yourself to death, can it be so obvious?" Annie said.
"Stop standing there, blocking my view. Are you with the other party?" Nancy asked.
"I..." Gro was speechless.
"Okay, shut up and cast the strengthening spell on us." Annie and Nancy said almost at the same time.
"I..." Gro lost the confidence to prove himself, lowered his head like an eggplant beaten by frost, and continued to help obediently.
"Ho ho ho!"
"Puff!"
"Boom!"
The battle continued, gradually the pressure eased, and it gradually came to an end.
"puff!"
As Annie killed the last weird hyena creature, the three of them couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It must be admitted that more than twenty strange creatures put great pressure on them. If they didn't use their full strength, they would be difficult to kill. Even so, most of their mana and physical strength have been exhausted, and they are already in an extremely exhausted state. They will definitely not be able to resist another wave.
"Let's leave quickly, this forest is too dangerous." Nancy looked at Annie and said solemnly.
"Yes." Annie nodded, did not refuse, and took the lead to leave.
As a result, he didn't even take a step this time, and there were continuous roars all around.
The three people's expressions changed, and then they saw hundreds of strange creatures rushing out from the forest in all directions, surrounding them.
