Chapter 2397 Stopping (two chapters in one)(1/2)

The sun has been working in the sky all day, and it's time to get off work.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the sky and judged that it would get dark in more than an hour, so he quickened his pace and continued on his way.

As time goes by, the amount of gravel appearing on the ground gradually decreases.

The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, was actually quite happy when he saw this scene.

Because the area he came to this afternoon was full of gravel, and traveling in such an area was very exhausting.

If the gravel road under his feet disappears, the speed of the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead will increase a lot, further shortening the time on the road.

Time flies by like a flash, and half an hour feels like it has passed in the blink of an eye.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead walked out of the rubble. He paused for a moment, then took out a water bottle from his backpack to drink water, and looked at the area behind him.

I was rushing through the gravel area this afternoon and encountered several attacks from strange beasts. I was discovered in advance by the pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead, and then launched a counterattack.

A few of those strange beasts died, and the rest were so frightened that they ran away.

Generally speaking, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead encountered much fewer attacks by strange beasts as he hurried through the gravel area than yesterday.

"Gudong, Gudong, Gudong..."

Because he had not drank water for a long time, he was very thirsty. The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead drank half a bottle of water in one breath.

"We need to find a place with water to rest tonight..."

The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead after drinking the water, thought in his heart that the reason why he made this decision was because the water he carried was almost finished.

Continuing to walk forward, the pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead would listen to the sounds around him from time to time.

If there is a stream or the sound of water flowing from a river nearby, if you hear it, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead will rush over to supplement it immediately.

This way he doesn't have to find a place with water to rest in the evening.

Ten minutes later, a lot of hazy white fog suddenly appeared ahead.

"Um?"

The pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead saw this scene and immediately became vigilant, because it was late in the evening and white mist was very common.

Normally, white fog only appears in the morning.

Because after a whole night, the water vapor is very thick, the sun has just risen during the day, and the temperature has not yet risen, so it is understandable that there will be white fog or something.

Now that the white mist appears, it suddenly makes people feel unusual. The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead increased his vigilance and did not stop. He continued to move forward.

A forest appeared in front of us. The forest was very large and stretched across our eyes.

You can go around it if you want, but now that the sun is going to set soon, there is no extra time to go around it.

"Tsk..."

"Do you want to continue moving forward? Or should you just rest here and wait for dawn before moving forward."

The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, thought about it and decided to spend the night outside the woods for safety reasons.

"Wow, wow, wow..."

A voice came from not far away, and the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead listened attentively, and then a happy smile appeared on his face.

It was the sound of water flowing. The water he carried was almost finished. The pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead originally wanted to add more. But now that he heard the sound of water flowing, he didn't need to think too much. He just hurriedly emptied it.

The kettle is filled.

"Tap, step, step..."

Rapid footsteps sounded, and the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead quickly ran away.

Not long after, he saw a creek.

This small stream flows out from the woods in the distance, winding and twisting. Under the sunlight, the water surface sparkles.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead approached the creek and observed on the bank. He found that the creek was quite deep.

To verify, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead bent down, picked up a stone from the ground and threw it into the creek.

"thump."

The stone fell into the stream and made a big splash.

The pig-headed man captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, threw several more stones one after another, and the splashes became bigger and bigger.

The deeper the creek, the more likely it is to cause large splashes when throwing stones.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead took out the empty water bottle on his body and filled it with water.

Several kettles were quickly filled. The pig-headed captain, who had experienced water shortage and almost died of thirst with a brown birthmark on his forehead, looked at the full kettles with a satisfied expression on his face.

…………

The setting sun dyes the sky red.

Flocks of birds flying in the sky, occasionally making a cry.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead settled down by the creek, the bonfire was lit and the flames were swaying.

Strangely enough, this creek is very deep, but there is not a single fish in it.

Just now, the pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, wanted to catch a few fish for dinner. After searching, he couldn't find any fish, which was quite disappointing.

I can only eat dry food for dinner tonight, and some leftover fruits from the road.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead skewered some dried meat on tree branches and roasted it next to the campfire. After a while, the smell of meat began to fill the air.

After finishing the barbecue, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead ate the remaining three fruits, and dinner was settled.

There was only the last afterglow of the sun in the sky. The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the sun that was about to disappear in the distance and murmured to himself.

"I hope you can spend tonight safely."

…………

"Roar……"

The sharp beast roar sounded, making people's ears hurt.

The two investigators moved forward in the area between two bare hills. Just as they thought, there were indeed strange beasts lurking in the darkness in this area full of plants.

Now they were facing several alien beasts attacking from both sides. Each alien beast looked at them with drooling eyes and wanted to devour them in one bite.

"I'll deal with the first few," the short investigator said.

"Okay, then be careful." The tall investigator said. Since his companions dealt with the first few, he will deal with the following ones.

The two investigators drew their weapons and actively attacked the approaching alien beasts.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

Streams of sharp sword energy roared out, and the beasts that faced the attack of the sword energy quickly dodge.

These strange beasts did not expect that the two investigators would have such long-range attack methods, and they were in a panic.

Some of the strange beasts were relatively weak and had no time to dodge. They were directly hit by the flying sword energy and were seriously injured.

"Roar……"

When the other beasts saw that their companions were seriously injured, the anger in their hearts rose up, as if a spoonful of oil had been poured on them, and it became very strong.

After a fierce battle, only a few strange beasts escaped with their tails between their legs, while the rest were either seriously injured or died on the spot.

"Huh..." The long journey was already exhausting their energy, and now they were fighting alien beasts. The two investigators were panting from exhaustion.

"The sun is going to set soon. Let's find a place to settle down!" The short investigator glanced at the sun that was about to disappear in the sky and said to his companions.

The tall investigator nodded, and they quickly left the current area.

The reason why I left in a hurry was because I was fighting a strange beast and the smell of blood was everywhere in the scene.

The breeze that blows from time to time will carry the smell of blood to other places. For some strange animals with a keen sense of smell, they can follow the smell of blood to find this place.

Continuing to stay here will only increase the possibility of being attacked by strange beasts again. The two investigators quickly walked forward.

The next step was very good luck. They walked out from between two bare mountains and did not encounter any more attacks by strange beasts during this period.

There is a fast river ahead, and you can choose to camp by the river at night.

…………

As night fell, the surroundings became pitch black.

The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, added some wood to the bonfire to make the weakened bonfire strong.

After the sun disappears, the temperature drops.

The temperature at night is more than ten degrees cooler than during the day, and the temperature difference between day and night is very large. If you do not take measures to keep warm, it is very likely to cause physical discomfort and a cold.

"call……"

A gust of wind blew violently, causing the wind to hit the body and make people feel cold.

"Ah sneeze."

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead found that the temperature dropped much more tonight than yesterday, and he was shivering a little from the cold.
To be continued...
