Chapter 4: I will protect you(1/2)

Zhenjin and Zidi shuttled through the dense jungle.

The leaves above our heads became thicker and thicker, almost covering the entire sky.

The air is extremely hot and humid.

The trees and vines are entangled, and if you are not careful, you will trip over.

The ground feels soft when your feet step on it, because there are many rotten leaves on the ground accumulated over time.

Zidi paused slightly: "It's nearby."

Zhen Jin's eyes narrowed slightly, and he knew what the girl meant - this was where she separated from the others and escaped alone.

According to Zidi's account, the wolf was chasing after them. In order to delay the attack, the last three guards stayed here, trying their best to hold off the wolf and try to give Zidi and the unconscious Zhenjin a chance to survive.

After walking for dozens of steps, they walked around a thick tree and saw a dead body.

In the bushes, two corpses were more than ten steps away, exuding a strong smell of blood.

Their eyes widened, fear and anger still lingering on their faces.

Zi Di couldn't help holding her breath and stopped in place, while Zhen Jin took a few steps and leaned over to investigate.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a thick black and red line, like an arrow shot from a crossbow, shot from under the corpse and aimed at Zhen Jin's face.

Acupuncture's hair exploded, his pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a needle tip, and he stretched out his hand to explore.

Hold the "black and red thick thread" in one fell swoop!

"Hiss!"

The thick black and red thread was stuck on the head by the needle-gold fingers, and it was immediately obvious that it was a very strange poisonous snake!

The scales of the venomous snake are black and the snake's head is bright red. There is an obvious red line extending from the snake's head to the snake's back and all the way to the snake's tail.

On both sides of the venomous snake's body, there are actually hundreds of centipede-like black legs.

"This is a bronze-level monster!" Zhen Jin felt the centipede's breath of life and immediately showed a struggling expression.

"Ah, be careful!" Everything happened too fast, and only then did Zidi react and exclaimed.

"This is a blood-threaded centipede, which is highly poisonous. The poison is so violent that it can kill you in just a few breaths!" Zidi introduced hurriedly, "And its centipede can pierce through leather and armor."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Bloodline Centipede's counterattack had already arrived.

It twisted its body and got entangled in Zhenjin's arm. Almost all of its hundreds of centipede feet were pierced into the boy's arm, and they were pierced deeper and deeper.

Blood gushed out, and pain hit Acupuncture Gold's heart.

At the same time, Zhen Jin felt that his arm was being squeezed by a huge winding force. His flesh and blood seemed to be squeezed into mud, and his arm bones were also groaning.

He quickly exerted force with his fingers, trying to strangle the bloodline centipede to death, but the snake's bones were very hard and its scales were also very tough and slippery.

Zhen Jin shouted low, pressed the snake's head to the ground, quickly pulled out the dagger with his other hand, raised it high, and stabbed it down hard.

The dagger seemed to have pierced through a hard stone, nailing the snake's head deeply to the ground.

The poisonous snake fought back before it died, and the centipede suddenly penetrated an inch deep, making Zhenjin's arm dripping with blood.

However, after a few breaths, the viper's body completely collapsed.

Although there was no entangling power, the hard centipede feet were still pierced into the boy's flesh.

Zhen Jin gritted his teeth, retrieved the dagger first, and quickly retreated away from the corpse before pulling out the centipedes one by one.

Zidi quickly took out the medicinal powder from her purse and sprinkled it on the wound on Zhenjin's arm. Then she took out a white bandage and bandaged the boy quickly.

The wound was relatively deep, but the acupuncture's constitution was excellent and the wound medicine was effective, and the bleeding stopped quickly.

And a cool and even sour feeling, mixed with a dull pain, constantly spread from the wound to Acupuncture's heart.

"What kind of potion is this? Is it so effective? Didn't it say that the operation of magic and fighting spirit is prohibited on this island?" Zhen Jin was curious about the immediate effect of the potion.

"This is a herbal medicine that originated from the barbarian tribes in the Frost Continent. This is not a magic potion, but simply uses the nature of the herb." Zidi explained.

Magic potion is a pharmacist who uses magic materials to successfully mix the materials and magic power and form a certain balance and stable state. Because this potion itself contains magic power, it often works quickly and has excellent results.

Zidi looked at the wound of Zhenjin, her eyes were a little red, and she said with a feeling of shame and guilt: "Fortunately, the centipede is not poisonous! I'm sorry, sir, for causing you injury. I should have told you this information earlier."

Seeing the girl like this, Zhen Jin couldn't help but feel pity. He shook his head and quickly comforted: "This is not your fault."

After crossing the river, they hurried through the jungle and were very wary of their surroundings. Even if there was communication, it was very limited and they tried to avoid distracting themselves.

The bloodline centipede emerged from the corpse so fast that Zhen Jin had not expected it.

"Even a snake on this island is so weird and sinister." Zhen Jin returned to the previous place, used the front part of the dagger to open the snake's head, and then cut open its body.

"If I can activate the fighting spirit, I won't be hurt by it." Zhenjin sighed secretly.

Regardless of whether he had a silver level fighting spirit or a black iron level, as long as the fighting spirit defense was activated at that time, it would be difficult for the centipede to pierce his arm.

Zhen Jin observed the inside of the poisonous snake's body and found that the snake's belly contained a large amount of undigested food.

There was a flash of light in the young knight's eyes: "It seems that this kind of centipede likes to eat the internal organs of its prey and is thirsty for blood. No wonder it emerged from the corpse."

"Strange." After searching twice, Zhen Jin felt confused, "Where is the crystal core in this monster's body?"

Warcraft can absorb natural elements and brew its own magic power. As this magic power accumulates over time, it will form the crystallization of magic power - the crystal core of Warcraft!

There is no crystal nucleus in the body of a newly born monster. The crystal nucleus in the body of a baby monster is very small, while the adult monster has a crystal nucleus.

This bloodline centipede is not a larvae at all, it is a mature body, but it has no crystal nucleus. This puzzles Zhen Jin.

Zidi explained in time: "There are many weird and weird monsters on this island. They have a strong life breath, but they don't have magic crystals in their bodies. The search and rescue team killed some monsters before, but they couldn't find any from their bodies."

Magic crystal. But maybe because of this reason, these magic beasts have not displayed any magic-like skills."

"So that's it." Zhen Jin finally understood.

Although the value of the Warcraft crystal core is not small, if it is due to the lack of magic crystals that these Warcraft cannot use spells, then for Zhenjin and Zidi, the advantages will definitely outweigh the disadvantages.

Zhen Jin thought about the fight between Ivy and the giant turtle that he had witnessed before.

"The lava spewing out from the giant turtle does not have any fluctuations in spells. It is not a magic-like spell that it mobilizes the magic power in its body. It is a biological instinct."

This is not surprising.

The mouths of some dragon beasts have special structures such as venom gland bags and sulfur bags, which can spit out the venom and sulfur in the bags while spitting air, forming venom spit or flame spit.

This is not a spell, but the ability of the creature itself.

After dealing with the bloody centipede, Zhenjin went to check the corpse again.

The two guards on the ground were already dead.

One person's fatal wound was in his throat, and his entire neck was almost bitten off, leaving only a trace of skin on the back of his neck. The other person was even more miserable - his entire head was violently deformed, and his brains were mixed with blood and flowed all over the floor.

These are all fatal injuries.

The stomachs of both of them were bruised, and the injuries in this part were obviously caused by poisonous snakes.

Zhen Jin's expression became more solemn. He stood up and looked around.

He carefully discovered that the surrounding bushes had been severely trampled.

In the eyes of ordinary people, this scene would be chaotic. But Zhen Jin found that he could effortlessly distinguish which traces were human beings and which traces were caused by evil wolves.

Even, based on these traces, a virtual route was drawn before his eyes.

The young man narrowed his eyes slightly and gradually looked away along the route that emerged in his mind.

But soon, bushes and dense forest blocked the view.

Zhen Jin then took a step forward, walked a dozen steps, walked through the bushes, and turned around a big tree.

At this time, a rare clearing in the forest appeared in front of him.

Zidi followed Zhen Jindu to this open space.

Zhen Jin looked down at his feet and found that there were still footprints in the open space.

This is because there are almost a lot of rotten leaves accumulated on the ground in dense forests. The rainfall is heavy, causing the rotten leaves to contain a lot of water.

Therefore, the heavier the person, the deeper the footprints on the ground will be, and some water stains will often seep out.

The footprints in the open space are widely spaced apart from each other, which shows that the owners of the footprints, that is, the guards, are in a running state.

Zhenjin pondered deeply and secretly speculated: "These two guards took a fancy to this open space. It has no cover and has a good view. It is an excellent battlefield to deal with evil wolves."

It was like the scene was replaying in his mind.

"But when they were guarding here, they suddenly found a vicious wolf running in the bushes, seemingly trying to bypass the guards and hunt down Zidi."

"Then the two guards were so desperate that they had no choice but to abandon their advantageous location and rush into the bushes in an attempt to pursue and thwart the wolf."

"In the bushes, two guards were walking one behind the other. The wolf was extremely fast. Suddenly it turned around and counterattacked. It jumped up and bit through the head of one of the guards."

"Then, it rushed to the guard behind and bit his throat out!"

Zhenjin made a series of guesses based on the corpse and various traces.

A chill spread from the bottom of my heart to my whole body.
To be continued...
