It was already noon.

But the cloudy weather has not improved at all and has become darker.

Above an empty plain.

Xu Zhiwu, Zhao Hu and others successfully built the tent, but their bodies had been wet by rain.

This simple small tent was assembled by them, and a small fire rose in the center of the tent.

Several people were naked and baking their clothes.

In this humid and dark weather, the little warmth brought by a ball of flame can only barely dispel the cold around it.

Xu Zhiwu took out two bottles of wine from the backpack behind him and opened it in the surprised eyes of others.

"No, captain, you really brought it?" Li Xiang was a little surprised.

"What are you afraid of? You are not in the army. If you didn't stand the bird's aura, I wouldn't have come to be a mercenary."

Xu Zhiwu sat down on the ground casually.

"Do you have a drink?"

"good!"

"I'll do it!"

Huang Tian also made a sound. It is obvious that he can't hurry up in this weather. When will he rest until he rests at this time?

"Where are you?" Xu Zhiwu looked at Chen Moyan, another machine gunner in the team.

"Um!"

The two bottles of wine were quickly divided by five people. The turbid wine entered the throat and a warm current flowed into the whole body. The coolness left by the cold rain on the body was relieved.

"Damn it, I don't know where to find the dog in this kind of ghost weather! Forget it, I'll wake up first!"

Xu Zhiwu wiped his mouth and found a corner to lie down. The others were not familiar with each other. After missing Xu Zhiwu, the atmosphere became silent.

...

Gu Zheng on the trunk was awakened by a slight friction sound. He opened his pupils and his expression changed.

A spearheaded viper appeared on the treetops not far away. It was not big but about one meter long and was dark brown all over.

It also noticed Gu Zheng, his mouth wide open and his sharp fangs were roaring.

Gu Zheng glanced at the ground and suddenly found that the heavy rainstorm that had been falling for several hours had actually caused the water level on the lake to rise. The grass he had been on the shore before was already covered by the lake water.

Most of the creatures of vipers are semi-arbored, so it is not surprising that they climb up the leaves.

Although this ancient tree is thick, Gu Zheng has no idea of ​​being a neighbor with the other party.

The distance between the two is only five or six meters.

Gu Zheng stood up with a vigilant look on his face.

When cats are prepared, snake creatures are basically unable to attack.

But be careful. If a viper is bitten, the snake venom of a feline will be injected into the body of a cat, and even if it does not die, it will peel off.

Gu Zheng had seen some snake catchers before, and they learned from them that the smaller the snake size, the more flexible the movements, and the stronger the toxicity.

Therefore, this spearhead viper is not very large, but the risk is even higher.

As Gu Zheng approached, the spearheaded viper obviously began to be alert. The snake's vision was extremely weak, and hunting was entirely due to infrared heat.

In this rainy weather, its hunting ability is greatly reduced.

Without time to prepare for the other party, Gu Zheng jumped and clawed in the air.

Puff.

It was like the sound of a sharp blade entering the flesh and there was no trace of resistance.

The headless corpse of the spearhead viper twisted on the trunk twice and fell off the trunk, leaving only the snake's head left in place, one by one.

Gu Zheng was a little stunned, raised his right claw and shot out of the flesh pad. The black mist that had been wrapped around it disappeared at some point. The sharpness of the claws was obviously stronger than before.

If it was just barely comparable to a dagger in the past, then his claws are now no different from those of a sharp knife.

Gu Zheng didn't know whether this change was good or bad, but he could improve his strength, so he no longer cared about it.

While Gu Zheng was thinking, Xiao Budian woke up and walked to Gu Zheng's side, looking at the snake head in front of him, his hair standing upside down.

The snake head that lost its body soon died completely, and was motionless as a gust of wind blew across the tree trunk.

Gu Zheng stood on the branches and walked around, staring at the lake hundreds of meters away. The fog seemed to dissipate a little, and the range could be increased.

The water level rose very quickly. According to Gu Zheng's observation, the original lake water expanded outward by at least a dozen meters. The grass he had been before only showed a slight hint of it in the lake water.

The surging lake surface surged from time to time, and more than a dozen black caiman crocodiles swam ashore from the shallow water area, including the five-meter-long crocodile.

Although crocodiles are not as united as some creatures, they will not easily fight within.

Gu Zheng even saw several small crocodiles crawling past the crocodile, but the other party didn't move at all.

A thunder like a bolt from the blue exploded, piercing the eardrums of the creatures. Gu Zheng felt his ears numb, and suddenly he could not hear anything.

The lightning bolt was suddenly and the sound was even louder. For a moment, all the sounds in the entire rain forest were suppressed by the roar of thunder.

There is a vast vastness between the sky and the earth, and the sight is as bright as day, and nothing can be seen except a snow-white patch.

It took a long time before Gu Zheng regained his visual hearing.

A hint of fear reflected in his pupils. I don’t know how thick the lightning was, but it actually slashed directly on the surging and rolling lake.

In just a moment, a layer of fish and shrimp slowly appeared on the original lake surface, including large fish more than one meter, caiman two or three meters, and strange creatures with scales that Gu Zheng could not name.

All the creatures in the water were electrocuted to death the moment lightning struck the lake surface and had no ability to resist.

The individual power of living beings is vulnerable to nature.

A giant beast roared like a roar under the water, and it actually passed through the lake and spread to the outside world. The sound kept rising and falling. I don’t know how many large underwater creatures were roaring and roaring, obviously they were greatly powered.

Ergouzi woke up from his sleep by the roar of thunder, thinking that a giant predator was appearing.

He stood up in panic, but raised his head but hit the tree trunk next to him and fell down.

Its position is not very high, but it is also six or seven meters.

With a thud, the ground was soaked in rain and became soft, and a mud pit was directly smashed under Ergou's weight and inertia.

Xiao Budian, who was originally in fear, was stunned by Ergou's series of operations, and even forgot about his fear.

Ergou, who fell at this height, had no injuries except for his muddy body. Under the cleaning of heavy rain, the mud was quickly washed away.

Climbing up the tree again with a wet fur.

"Ao...Wool!"

A clear barking of dog came into Gu Zheng's ears, and he turned his head and looked along Ergou's gaze.

The lake water spreads from a distance to the mangrove forest. Some small underwater creatures were convolved by wind and waves and pushed to the shore. A turtle was pushed to the shore by the waves and was struggling to climb into the lake.

South American side-necked turtle, the world's largest freshwater turtle.

This turtle is quite large, about one meter from head to tail, like a millstone. The side-necked turtle usually appears in deeper waters.

Gu Zheng did not think deeply.

The side-necked turtle is one of the preys in the recipe for the King of the Rainforest Jaguar.
