Chapter 366 Predator
Under the influence of the white fog, Ryan's visual distance was only more than one meter. In this situation, it was difficult for Ryan to distinguish between southeast and northwest, and he could only move in one direction.
Holding Ivy's hand tightly, Ryan moved forward cautiously step by step. At the same time, he did not forget to tell Ivy: "Try to follow my footsteps."
"Um……"
Ivy lowered her head and responded lightly. If Ryan turned around, he could still see the slightly red tips of Ivy's ears.
It's not that Ivy is still yearning for love at this time, it's just that Ivy subconsciously feels that as long as Ryan is by her side, she will be safe and all problems will be solved.
unless……
Suddenly, Ivy remembered the dream Vera had and suddenly raised her head.
According to Sister Vera's description, there were only two people in that dream, herself and Mr. Lane, and even Yazhi, who had always been inseparable from Lane, did not appear. This was a very rare thing.
And now, aren't I and Mr. Lane alone?
Thinking of this, Ivy panicked in her heart: "Mr. Lane... Mr. Lane."
Ryan stopped and looked back: "Ivy, what's wrong?"
"You...be careful."
Ivy whispered: "I feel that our current situation is very similar to Sister Vera's dream..."
"..."
Hearing this, Ryan was silent for a moment, then shook Ivy's catkin firmly, with a relieved smile on his face:
"Don't worry. I've always kept this in mind and been very careful. But with the current situation, we can't just sit there and wait for death, can we?"
"Yeah, that's right..."
Putting away the uneasiness in her heart, Ivy followed Ryan obediently, while listening carefully to what was going on around her.
After walking for a while, Ivy's ears suddenly twitched and she suddenly said: "Mr. Lane, there are footsteps ahead!"
As Ivy's words fell, Ryan immediately stopped, raised the black sword in his hand, and looked at the white mist ahead with his eyebrows, ready for battle.
Soon, Ryan also heard the sound of footsteps. The sound was very hollow, making people feel that the owner of the footsteps was very weak. It was also mixed with the sound of some armor rubbing.
From time to time, a human-shaped black shadow slowly appeared in the white mist.
At the same time that Ryan and Ivy noticed the black shadow, the black shadow also obviously noticed the two of them. An extremely weak and frightened voice spat out word by word from the black shadow's mouth:
"Save... help me..."
A member of the expedition team? !
Hearing this slightly familiar voice, Ryan was slightly startled, and then quickly stepped forward, but he still did not lower the tip of the sword pointed at the opponent.
After getting really close to the black shadow, Ryan and Ivy finally saw the true face of the black shadow.
As Ryan expected, this was a member of the expedition team, but...
Ivy's eyes widened and she raised her hand to cover her mouth, a look of fear flashing in her eyes.
I saw that the flesh of half of the member of the crusade team had been corroded by an unknown liquid, revealing the flesh and bones underneath.
The breastplate part of the armor was corroded to a terrible extent, and all the flesh on the chest had been corroded cleanly, leaving only Senbai's skeleton and beating internal organs exposed.
The member of the crusade team looked at Ryan with hopeful eyes, slowly raised his arm covered with rotten flesh, and wanted to ask Ryan for help.
Ryan was about to put down his sword to hold him up, but the next moment, the member of the crusade team fell to the ground, losing his last breath.
Ryan: "..."
"Mr. Lane, that's..."
Looking at the corpse on the ground, Ivy felt like she was falling into an ice cave, and she held Ryan's hand harder and harder.
"This white mist should be released by some kind of predator to hunt prey."
After confirming that the member of the expedition team was beyond treatment, Ryan mourned for a moment in his heart, and then speculated:
"This white mist may have some kind of guidance. No matter how we go, we will eventually encounter the predator."
Hearing this, Ivy felt her heart skip a beat: "Then Mr. Lane, what should we do?"
"Speed ahead."
Ryan clenched the hilt of his sword and said without thinking: "Now we can't get in touch with Rowling and the others. If Rowling and the others encounter predators before us, there will be some trouble.
The two of us are the most likely to eliminate the predator in the expedition team, so we must eliminate the predator before others encounter the predator. "
Hearing what Ryan said, Ivy put away the fear and anxiety in her heart and nodded vigorously: "Yes!"
After casually burying the member of the crusade team, Ryan and Ivy speeded up. Soon, Ryan and Ivy felt that the white mist surrounding them had become much thinner. It was obvious that they had reached the edge.
After walking a short distance, the two finally walked out of the white fog. The moment their vision broadened, they were faced with a dark cave.
Deep in the cave, a strange sour smell came out, which made Ivy frown.
Ryan suddenly discovered that he could sense the specific locations of Luo Lin and Yazhi.
At this moment, the two women were still in the white mist. They were far apart, but they were both walking towards their position.
It seems that Ryan's speculation is not wrong. This white mist is indeed guiding to a certain extent.
While Ryan was thinking about whether he could wait here for the large team to gather, a subtle sound of breaking through the air suddenly came from deep in the cave!
Ryan reacted quickly and immediately raised the black sword. A cold light flashed, and he saw a slender pink forked tongue cut off by his sword and fell to the ground.
"Guga——"
A scream from an unknown creature came from the cave, and then the ground trembled.
Ryan held the black sword tightly, and Ivy also picked up the elf bow, and the two of them stood ready.
Listening to the voice just now, this creature does not seem to be a dragon.
But precisely because he was not a dragon, Ryan had to be more vigilant.
A foreign creature that can occupy a huge lair in dragon territory is not a good thing!
Soon, the owner of this cave finally appeared in front of Ryan's eyes - a huge toad covered in foul-smelling pustules.
The sour smell appeared on this toad. The toad was only about ten meters tall. Every pustule on its body was the size of a person. Ivy got goosebumps when I saw it.
Ryan felt the black sword in his hand tremble slightly, obviously not wanting to chop the toad at all.
"Goo-"
The giant toad gathered strength for a moment, then spat out a mouthful of purple venomous phlegm and attacked Ryan and Ivy.
The two men immediately dodged and attacked the toad from the left and right.
Ivy was the first to take action. Ivy quickly picked up her bow and arrow, and shot out an arrow, blowing out one of the toad's eyes!
