Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Covering Carmen's body with branches and dead leaves, Allen and others once again followed the traces to track the fjord monster, but the team's morale had dropped to the bottom.  The strange injuries caused by Carmen¡¯s decapitation made everyone worried.  Qin Lun personally judged that this was the second mysterious force in Arcadia, but Allen and others believed that it was man-made.  In other words, among the tourists who entered the camp with them, there was a serial murderer.  Both judgments have a certain truth. The Death Game can lead them to Arcadia, so it is not surprising that it will attract a few serial murderers.  However, Qin Lun prefers the first type. The serial murderer's change in the plot situation is too weak and is not as powerful as the mysterious power.  As the sky gradually gets brighter, Allen and others slowly find that the environment around them is getting stranger and stranger.  In the outer forests of Acadia National Park, there are often tourists walking around, and most of the naturally formed paths are left in the forest.  The paths were covered with dead leaves, and the grass had been trampled flat by the people coming and going.  But after several hours of tracking, Allen and others had penetrated deep into the forest and passed several warning signs along the way.  There are no more trails made by tourists around them. Most of the weeds on the forest floor have grown to more than a foot high, making it almost impossible to see the soil below.  Natasha took out a few rubber bands she used to tie her hair and asked everyone to tighten their trousers to prevent things like snakes and insects from crawling in.  The girl's careful move immediately won praise from everyone.  "Did you hear anything?" Qin Lun tilted his head to listen uncertainly. His hearing was much worse than his eyesight. This was not a pretense.  In fact, when he entered this forest, he had already tested several bloodline abilities on his body.  Perhaps restricted by the laws of the world, or perhaps interfered by other mysterious forces, he was unable to use Elf Story here, and the gazing aura was also weakened a lot.  The gains gained from the elven bloodline and hunter profession have basically been offset by about 77%.  Higher-level magic skills are also subject to great restrictions. For example, the A-level Tree World Arrival cannot be used at all. This is a low-magic world after all.  The only good news is that some low-level skills and physical attributes are not greatly restricted, such as: bow and arrow skills such as rapid fire, scattering, and penetrating arrows; firearms' ballistic refraction, weak point sights, etc.  This also refreshed Qin Lun¡¯s understanding and made him feel the importance of comprehensiveness.  In fact, this also exposed his weakness of insufficient accumulation. With his current ability, if his skills are fully activated, he will be at the upper level among the second-level apostles.  But once he switches to some more restrictive mission worlds, he may be weaker than ordinary second-level apostles, because others have more accumulation of mid- and low-level skills than he does.  "I didn't hear anything." "Neither did I!" Allen's face was a little confused and nervous. Apart from having the kind of precognitive hallucination, he was still just an ordinary person in other respects.  "Here, follow me, I really want to hear some weird noises." Qin Lun signaled everyone to be quiet, listened for a while, then pointed out a direction and waved for everyone to follow him.  "What on earth is this?" Allen and others looked forward through the bushes. Except for Qin Lun, everyone else could not help but tremble all over, and the urge to urinate rose from their lower abdomen.  For ordinary people living in peaceful times, this scene is too shocking.  The moment they saw it, their minds went blank, with no ability to think at all, leaving only the instinctive fear of life.  Qin Lun didn't take them very far. After about two or three hundred meters, everyone heard the sound he said.  This sound is obviously a mixed sound. If you identify it carefully, there is the sound of water, a strange sound like a child crying, and some kind of frog-like cooing sound.  The closer they got, the more terrified everyone became. Finally, they followed Qin Lun into the bushes and crawled over almost tiptoeing.  Peeling away the bushes, you will find a gravel beach on the shore of a lake.  This place is different from ordinary beaches. There is neither fine sand nor pebbles. The shore is full of ferocious rocks. They are not big, but the edges and corners are extremely sharp, like blades.  The lake water came in waves and smashed into pieces on the gravel beach, and the sound of rushing water could be heard among the rocks.  As long as there are lakes and beaches in Acadia National Park, there are basically many tourists, but obviously no one comes to this beach, and basically not even the animals in the forest come here to drink water.  Coupled with the thick fog in the early morning and the poor visibility of the surrounding environment, Qi Feng looked eerie and mysterious, giving Allen and others goosebumps all over their bodies.  In front of the bushes where everyone was hiding, they finally saw what they called the fjord monster.??"Raiders".  This is a humanoid creature with dark green scales all over its body. It is similar to what everyone has guessed. It should be amphibious on water.  Their heads are like crocodile heads, with long fins on their ears, mouths full of fangs as sharp as daggers, webbed toes, and nails that are curved like hooks.  The two large monsters were over three and a half meters tall. They were probably not used to walking on land, and their backs were slightly stooped. They were standing on either side, looking around warily.  The three little monsters are smaller in size, but they are lying on the ground eating, so they can¡¯t be seen very carefully.  What frightened everyone was that they were lying on the ground eating two human corpses.  The two corpses were both female. Their clothes were torn, and a big hole was opened in their chest and abdomen. The internal organs inside were being eaten by three little monsters.  One of the women's head was facing the bushes where everyone was hiding. Her chin rested on the ground, and the place where her eyes were had turned into two bloody holes.  All the tender flesh on the face had been chewed off, and the mouth had no lips or tongue, exposing the upper and lower gums.  The skull was lifted from the frontal door, and the brains were gone, apparently eaten away.  Another woman was lying on her back, and the two lumps of soft flesh on her chest had turned into two holes.  The thighs and arms seemed to have shrunk, becoming much slender, revealing the pale bones inside.  "Ugh~~" Allen and the others fell to the ground and vomited one after another, their eyes full of fear, and they instinctively suppressed themselves not to make any sound.  Now they knew what that frog-like sound was, the sound of the monster swallowing as it gnawed on the corpse.  Qin Lun did not pay attention to them at this time, but glanced at Donald inadvertently.  The fat man lowered his head, covered his face with his palms, and his shoulders were shaking. He looked extremely frightened, but Qin Lun noticed that besides himself, he was the only other person who never vomited.  Rich experience sometimes becomes one of the flaws, that is, we don¡¯t know whether this fat man is a reincarnation or an apostle!  There was a sneer on Qin Lun's face. With his ability, he could force himself to vomit, but the pretense of embarrassment could be seen through at a glance, so he didn't do it.  Skills have specializations, and apostles and reincarnations are not omnipotent.  Even if you have the acting skills of an Oscar winner, you still need to prepare your emotions in advance. Vomiting is not the focus. The embarrassment during the vomiting process cannot be faked.  He knew it, and so did Donald, so they never pretended to be pitiful.  Allen and others received too much sensory stimulation, their minds went blank, and they did not even think about the identities of the two corpses.  However, Qin Lun noticed that the two corpses were beyond recognition and could not tell whether they were Fanny, Karin and Susan who had disappeared before.  But judging from the tattered clothes, Qin Lun was sure that the Susan and Karin he had seen were not among them.  The people attacked and kidnapped by these five monsters last night may not be limited to their camp.  These thoughts flashed through Qin Lun's mind. The next moment, he stood up directly from behind the bushes, and the pulley bow in his hand was stretched to the full moon.  "Whoosh whoosh!" In the horrified eyes of Allen and others, the three carbon arrows held by the five fingers of Qin Lun's right hand were shot out almost in a line.  There are many types of arrows used in modern pulley bows. Compared with the slightly heavier fiberglass arrows and aluminum alloy arrows, Qin Lun prefers carbon arrows with light weight and straight trajectory, pursuing muzzle velocity and accuracy.  Moreover, carbon arrows are not easy to explode, which reduces the trouble of replenishing them later.  "Wow~~" Among the three little monsters lying on the ground eating corpses, the one facing the bushes let out a shrill scream, like a baby crying.  The first of the three carbon arrows Qin Lun shot was aimed at its forehead, but it only shattered a few scales before being bounced off the skull.  The second arrow was aimed at its throat, but still only penetrated two centimeters.  It may have entered the esophagus, but judging from the amount of bleeding, the injury was not considered fatal.  It was his third arrow that really severely damaged the little monster. Its right eye was blown out, and blood mixed with traces of white brains flowed out of the eye socket.  However, the vitality of this fjord sea monster is obviously very strong. Even though its brain has suffered collateral trauma, this little monster is still alive and starts attacking everything around it without distinguishing between friend and foe.  Its two brothers and sisters were obviously frightened. They abandoned the body at their feet and ran around with their heads in their hands. They screamed aggrievedly at the little monster that attacked them. They probably didn't understand what happened to the brother.  However, the two big monsters on guard are different.  They seemed to possess a certain degree of intelligence. One of them quickly stopped in front of the crazed monster and grabbed its arms tightly, preventing it from continuing to wreak havoc.  And the other one roared and rushed towards the bush, with no trace of emotion on its ferocious and twisted crocodile face.??Concealing inner rage.  However, even in this situation, it still seemed cautious enough, using its muscular arms to block its face to prevent arrows from hitting its weak facial features.  Qin Lun narrowed his eyes slightly. His test was successful, but the result was not ideal.  The defense and intelligence of these monsters are far beyond imagination. With the pulley bow in his hand, the effect of long-range attacks is limited.  With his physical attributes, he might be able to kill them at close range, but the presence of the God of Death made him throw a rat weapon at bay.
