Chapter 293 The Wilderness Hunting Team!
Tatata!
A series of hurried footsteps echoed through the mountains and forests.
in the dark.
Hundreds of figures were running at high speed.
On their backs were bulging bags and bundles containing animal hides and bones.
A gentle breeze blew by, and immediately a bloody smell wafted through the air—the smell of human blood!
This is a wilderness hunting team that roams the wilderness year-round, making a living through hunting and exploration.
The result of this battle was the successful hunting of a seventh-tier ferocious beast in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range!
"Awooo..."
Suddenly, several miles behind them, a series of beast roars came from behind.
And... the sound of the earth trembling caused by a large number of ferocious beasts running wildly.
"Not good! The beast horde is coming! Everyone, move faster!" Hearing the roar of the beasts, Captain Black Horse turned around, his expression changed drastically, and he roared.
He had a square face and a burly build.
However, because he spends most of his time wandering in the wilderness.
My skin is very dry, and my lips are also chapped and bleeding.
He was covered in dust and looked quite disheveled.
"Oh no! This is troublesome!" Everyone heard the beast's roar and their expressions changed drastically.
"Drop all your backpacks! Lighten your load!" The roar of the beast was getting closer and closer, and the black horse was in a great hurry, so it roared loudly.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed once again.
You can make a lot of money by selling the bones and fur of a seventh-tier ferocious beast that you finally manage to hunt down.
But now, they are being chased by a group of ferocious beasts and have fled here in a panic.
The only road leading out was plagued by acid rain and raging winds, leaving no choice but to abandon the goods...
Thinking of this, the group hesitated slightly before preparing to discard it.
"Captain! Put us down, you guys escape!" A weak voice shouted from the back of the burly man.
A closer look reveals that behind the dark horse lies a person who is constantly bleeding.
Perhaps it was because the other person was too heavy, or perhaps it was because they were running too intensely.
Black Horse's forehead was covered in sweat, and he was panting heavily.
“That’s right, Captain! Those ferocious beasts were attracted by the smell of blood on us. You can’t leave unless you put us down! And there’s black mist, acid rain, and strong winds everywhere… cough cough…” Another slightly thin man had a wounded soldier clinging to him, struggling to get down.
As a result, this caused injury, and he started coughing violently.
"Shut the hell up! When I led you away from Sunset City, I said that if you were willing to follow me, I would take you with me if you lived, and if you died, I would make sure you rested in peace!" The burly man roared as he ran.
"Huh? Why did the roars stop? And those ferocious beasts stopped chasing us!"
Suddenly, one person cried out in surprise and stopped breathing heavily, his backpack falling to the ground.
"It seems to be true! Whew~"
The remaining people also stopped one after another, supporting themselves on their knees and breathing heavily.
"The ferocious beast has suddenly stopped. Something must be strange here. Everyone be careful! Let's rest here for a while and be ready to run at any time!" Although the burly man was sure that the ferocious beast had not chased after him for the time being, based on his years of experience roaming the wilderness, he knew that there must be something strange about this mountain range, and perhaps even greater dangers were lurking there.
However, he still put the wounded on the ground and stopped to rest first.
Although he was a seventh-tier expert.
They could run for miles while carrying someone on their back.
It can be quite tiring.
This is the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range after all. Once you're completely exhausted, it's your death day!
Taking appropriate breaks to rest and recover one's strength is a crucial survival strategy!
"It's all this dead bird's fault!" Danai, the vice-captain of the hunting team, carefully laid the other wounded man on his back flat, then looked at a backpack in the crowd, on which a pitch-black bird was perched.
"They messed up at a crucial moment, causing us to go the wrong way and two of our brothers got injured."
“If you ask me, that silly bird has been sickly these past two days and is clearly not going to make it. While it still has a breath left, let’s quickly roast it for the two brothers to eat. I’ve heard that spirit beast meat is a great tonic…” Danai suggested, looking at the two wounded men who were bleeding profusely.
Normally, they could find some herbs to treat their injuries, but now they're running for their lives, where are they going to find medicine?
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at the black bird with complicated expressions.
They are a hunting team called "Wild Wolves," with extensive experience in wilderness survival.
They always adhere to the principle of never abandoning or giving up, and will not abandon their teammates even if they are seriously injured.
Compared to their brothers, a bird is nothing, but... this bird is different.
"quack!"
Seemingly sensing the gazes of the crowd, the black bird, which had been lying motionless, slowly opened its eyes and stared straight at Danai. Its eyes suddenly turned from pitch black to gray-white.
The next second, Danai felt a chill run down her spine.
He instinctively took a step back.
Sensing the gazes of the crowd, the black bird, which had been lying motionless, slowly opened its eyes and stared straight at Danai. Its eyes suddenly turned from pitch black to gray-white.
As a result, a dignified sixth-level expert inexplicably tripped and fell flat on his face.
And to make matters worse, as I got up from the ground, I happened to grab a sticky blob of something...
"This is beast excrement? I'm speechless..."
Realizing what was on him, Danai glared at the black bird and cursed loudly.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, he tripped and fell flat on his face again.
"I told you a long time ago, you can't mess with this little devil! You just wouldn't listen!" Seeing Danai's disheveled appearance, Black Horse laughed and scolded, "Give him a wash first, he smells terrible."
As he spoke, he quickly asked someone to get him some water to wash him clean.
The black horse neighed twice. But Danai remained motionless, staring blankly in one direction.
"What's wrong?" Black Horse asked, puzzled.
But the next second, he followed Danai's gaze.
Suddenly his pupils shrank.
"Where did that mountain come from? I don't think it was here before... Also, what's that glowing thing?"
"Hiss~ There seem to be human walls up there!"
The wolf hunting team has come to the Beast Mountain Range more than once or twice.
They were somewhat familiar with the surrounding terrain.
However, both Black Horse and Danai remembered that there was no mountain here at all.
Moreover, the object emitting green light on the mountain looked like a tree.
"It might be some kind of treasure! Let's go check it out!" The two made the decision immediately.
After all, that's what they do. How could they possibly miss out on a treasure they've found?
"Be careful, everyone, be ready to fight at any time!" Black Horse and Danai each carried an injured teammate on their backs and carefully approached the mountain, while reminding everyone at the same time.
After all, they had been traveling to and from the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range for so long and had never seen anything so bizarre.
This mountain seems to move, appearing out of thin air; it just doesn't make sense no matter how you look at it.
"But... being bathed in that light feels so comfortable!"
The green light seemed to originate from the mountaintop, extending from the summit to the foot of the mountain and radiating onto them. The moment they were touched by the green light, their eyes were instantly brightened.
In particular, he noticed that his two injured teammates looked better.
"Keep going!" After a moment's thought, the black horse decided to continue.
There might be danger there, but with so many of them, they're not afraid.
Moreover, and most importantly, there is a good chance that a cure for their brother might be found there.
No one else objected; they simply nodded and quickly followed.
"quack..."
Just then, a sickly black bird suddenly let out two mournful cries.
His small, dark eyes were filled with terror.
It seemed like it was about to die, but now it flapped its wings twice, trying to fly away.
"Behave yourself! Or I'll really roast you!"
