Chapter 0196 Jungle Fight

A small expedition team of five people trekked hard in the jungle.

This is a powerful expedition team, which can be seen from the composition of their team.

A powerful warrior with amazing brute strength was responsible for opening the way in front, using his sword to carve out a narrow path in the dense bushes among the trees. Behind the warrior was a thin thief, his eyes wandering around in the surrounding shadows and mottled trees, looking cautious.

In addition, there was an archer with his bow ready to fire, and two powerful spell-breaking knights who had taken off their heavy knight armor and only wore chain armor.

The vast jungle, the lush forest sea.

Plunging in, everything is thick or light green, and it is difficult to see any other colors.

The rhizomes of the ancient trees stretched out, the tough vines intertwined, and the bushes growing everywhere, plus many unnamed wild flowers and weeds, were enough to fill the space between the tall ancient trees. Traveling through such primitive jungle is undoubtedly an extremely painful thing for unprepared travelers.

Gurgling streams, neither high nor low mountain ravines, lush valleys... These are common scenes in mountain forests. If placed in a plain area, it may only take half a quarter of an hour to cross them. But if placed in a mountain forest with tall trees and dense forests, Each one took them an hour or two to trudge through.

Warriors, thieves and archers are all good players who have been hanging out in the Greenland forest all year round, so they don't care about this difficulty. But the two law-breaking knights who followed closely behind them found it difficult to adapt to the pain of traveling across mountains and rivers once they left the magic horse.

Having only penetrated less than seven miles into the forest, the two spell-breaking knights were already sweating profusely from exhaustion, and they felt that the simple chain armor on their bodies was as heavy as a mountain.

But even so, no one of the two spell-breaking knights complained about suffering or tiredness, and no one took the initiative to suggest taking a rest. They gritted their teeth and held on, following the three adventurers step by step, exploring the mountains and forests in front of them bit by bit.

After reaching the bottom of a small cliff, the team finally stopped to rest.

The two law-breaking knights painfully moved their heavy bodies to the gurgling mountain stream, picked up the cold mountain water and drank happily. Also doing the same thing as them was the brute force warrior who led the team.

Without his overcoming obstacles along the way, it would have been impossible for these two law-breaking knights, who usually like to wrap themselves in iron cans, to reach here.

The archer was a middle-aged man with a thin body, long thin lips, and sharp eyes. He did not rush to the stream to drink like his companions. Instead, he leaned against a tall old tree at the bottom of the cliff and looked around with a vigilant face. Listen carefully to the sounds in the jungle.

Any weird sound will make him hold the bow and wait. As long as he detects anything wrong, the sharp arrow on the bow string will be shot out immediately.

The thief was even more agile. He climbed up to the top of the cliff using his hands and feet while everyone was resting, where he looked around, leaning down from time to time to sign with the archer in sign language.

"How's it going? Did Jack find anything?" A spell-breaking knight couldn't help but ask after he had his fill.

Jack was the thief's name.

The archer shook his head with a pale face: "Nothing was found! This jungle is simply too quiet. I have been wandering in the Greenland forest for 5 years, and I have never seen such a quiet jungle. It was so quiet that I couldn't even find a small animal. ! Sir, this jungle has been shrouded in an ominous atmosphere, shall we go back? "

The slightly younger Spell-Breaking Knight said with a firm face: "You can't turn back anymore. We hired you here just to find out where the lair of those evil people is, so before we get anything, who of us can't turn back." You can’t go back! If you escape privately, you will be punished the most severely, so give up your boring thoughts and think more about how to complete the mission safely!”

The older law-breaking knight took out an old leather map from his arms and carefully marked his location on it. From the winding road map above, it can be seen that the mountain road they need to explore is still very long.

When the Brute Warrior heard the Spell-Breaking Knight's words, he shrugged and showed a helpless expression. The archer's face showed a distressed expression, and his expression became dazed.

However, while he was in a daze, a rattan hanging from the tall old tree he was leaning on started to move strangely without any wind. Silently, the rattan that was about to reach the ground twisted like a snake and slowly raised its tentacles.

The front end of the rattan suddenly cracked, revealing a pair of beast-like fangs.

Just as the vine slowly squirmed and the sharp teeth at the front almost touched the archer's naked neck, the thief on the top of the cliff jumped down, and the flying knife in his hand screamed from the archer's ear. Scratched, hitting the front of the tentacles of the cane.

There was a crisp sound of gold and iron, and the archer's body trembled violently. He knew the opportunity and rolled forward without looking back.

Not only was the vine struck by the flying knife unbroken, it even made a metallic sound similar to the collision of swords. After being blocked by the flying knife, the vines that rushed towards him did not bite the archer's neck. The fangs and sharp teeth collided together, making a strange clicking sound.

Obviously knowing that it had been exposed, the wrinkled old tree rooted at the bottom of the cliff made a noisy creaking sound, and the whole body actually pulled out dense and vigorous roots from the ground, twisted into lower limbs similar to human legs, and slowly approached the few people.

And the dozens of vines hanging from its body were waving in the sky, with sharp mouths opened at the ends, making all kinds of terrifying and terrible biting sounds.

"Damn... What kind of monster is this!" Roaring loudly, the brute warrior rushed up waving the big sword in his hand.

As a small adventurer team, dangerous tasks such as charging into battle can only be completed by him, and his two companions can't withstand such a strange and powerful monster. As for the two law-breaking knights, as employers, they have the right to remain neutral before the adventurers fail.

The archer quickly distanced himself from the tree-like monster, and the bowstring in his hand kept popping, and the sharp arrows shot towards the enemy like a line. Since it was the first time he saw a monster of this appearance, he could only choose to attack the enemy's thick trunk when he could not identify the enemy's vital points.

The thief obviously had the same idea as him, and the poisoned flying knife in his hand was also desperately greeting the thick part of the enemy's body.

Unfortunately, most of the attacks of the two were smashed away by the crazy swinging vine snake, and even if the bow and arrow and flying knife were occasionally inserted into the ancient tree, it could not bring any effect to it.

Obviously, this terrible monster is not afraid of the attack of small sharp weapons!

The brute warrior chopped around the ancient tree a few times, chopping the withered and tough bark on its body into wood chips and green juice splashing. But before he could cause more damage to it, a thick root that rolled close to the ground entangled his legs and dragged him to the ground.

The ancient tree wriggled its bifurcated "legs" and slowly moved towards the brute warrior. The vines and snake tentacles hanging from the tree canopy kept opening and closing, as if they were going to eat the warrior alive.

The two law-breaking knights looked at each other, nodded knowingly, and instantly activated the rune weapons on their bodies. The small hand shield tied to the left forearm popped out a translucent energy shield, and a wisp of elemental flame on the rune sword in the right hand began to flicker and gradually extended to the entire blade.

Energy shield and flame sword.

The two law-breaking knights were also experienced people. For this kind of plant monster with thick skin and flesh, flame is undoubtedly their biggest nemesis.

A law-breaking knight strode forward, swung the flame sword in his hand with great force, and the flame blade that came out of the body left a half-moon scorch mark in the air, and cut through the bundle of roots of the ancient tree that bound the brute warrior.

The roots broke with a sound, and the sticky green juice splashed everywhere.

The body of the ancient tree-like monster trembled in pain, and all the vines and snake tentacles moved to the front of the trunk and bit towards the two law-breaking knights.

It must be said that the law-breaking knights armed with runes are the natural enemies of all monsters!

The attributeless energy shield can almost block all spells except curses and penetrating witchcraft, and it also has good defense against physical attacks. This fully guarantees the safety of the law-breaking knights themselves. Then, relying on the physical and flame attributes of the flaming sword in his hand, he can cause incalculable and terrible damage to the enemy.

If this ancient tree with primitive bark armor is left to adventurers to deal with, it is difficult to kill it without paying the casualties of seven or eight people. But now, relying on the powerful defense and attack capabilities of the law-breaking knights, they only paid the price of minor injuries to the brute force warriors to set the ancient tree on fire.

Yes, when the law-breaking knight cut a deep gap in the ancient tree and ignited the green juice with fire, the whole ancient tree made a human-like piercing hissing and fell into the sea of ​​fire in pain.

The three-member adventure team was naturally very happy to be able to successfully destroy such a powerful monster.

But just as they were excitedly planning to search for some spoils on the burned remains of the ancient tree, the two law-breaking knights shouted in a deep voice: "Come back quickly! Get ready, the real enemy is coming soon!"

The three-member adventure team was shocked when they heard this.

This... Such a powerful monster is not the main force of the enemy?

Just as they were doubtful, a tsunami-like flapping sound of wings suddenly came from the nearby mountains and forests.

Immediately, a large group of black shadows swarmed out from all over the mountains and forests, squeaking and rushing towards them frantically.

"Bat group! It's a bat group..."

The next second, their shouts were drowned out by the tide of vampire bats!
