- The wind blew across the rolling gray hills in front of me, and the meadows on the hills stirred up green waves in the wind. Everything seemed quiet and harmonious.
In the afternoon, with the sun shining high above our heads, there were several adult wilderness antlered deer wandering under a low seabuckthorn tree on the edge of the meadow. They lowered their heads, enjoying the sweet berries on the seabuckthorn tree, and looked at the ice and snow wasteland. For all animals that live on earth, this time is the best season of the year.
The wind blowing through the meadow made the weeds as tall as a person rustle. At the same time, the wind also brought other sounds and smells in the meadow.
As if they felt something, several wilderness antlered deer that were eating suddenly stopped moving, raised their necks, looked around, and then started running in panic at the same time.
Several wilderness-antlered deer just started running. After the swishing sound, several javelins were immediately planted around the ground where they were just now. One wilderness-antlered deer was stabbed in the neck by a javelin on the spot and fell to the ground with a mournful cry. on the ground.
Seven or eight teenagers wearing animal skin clothes suddenly rushed out of the meadow like leopards and began to chase the two fast-running wilderness antlered deer.
"This one can't run away. Let's go chase the ones in front" The boy at the front shouted, directing the actions of the other boys. After listening to this boy's words, all the boys who rushed out quickly swooped. Passing the place where the wilderness antlered deer were, he easily pulled out the javelin stuck in the ground and chased after the fleeing wilderness antlered deer.
These seven or eight teenagers are only thirteen or fourteen years old, but their bodies have grown quite strong. Especially when running, in short distances, the explosive power and speed of the teenagers are very amazing. The few wilderness antlered deer that had just started running were unable to completely distance themselves from the teenagers.
The teenagers ran while throwing the javelins they carried. The javelins thrown by the teenagers chased the silhouettes of the wilderness antlered deer and kept inserting them into the ground or grass, causing the fleeing wilderness antlered deer to speed up even more. After the boy threw all the javelins he had on him, another wilderness antlered deer running at the end was stabbed by the javelin. Falling injured.
The teenagers ignored the fallen prey and continued to chase the remaining wilderness antlered deer.
The teenagers chased the wilderness antlered deer and rushed out of the seabuckthorn forest. The terrain in front of them suddenly became flat and open. Seeing that the wilderness antlered deer were getting faster and faster, they were gradually about to overtake the few behind them. The boy got rid of it completely.
In addition to the javelin, another weapon the teenagers have in their hands is the stumbling block.
"Prepare to stumble" the young man running at the front shouted. All the pursuing teenagers immediately took out the stumbling blocks they carried and waved them quickly while running.
"Let it go!" As the first boy threw out the stumbling block in his hand, all the boys also threw out their own stumbling block.
The stumbling block tied with a rope left the hands of the teenagers under the acceleration of huge centrifugal force, and made a strange whining sound in the air, flying towards the horned deer at a speed much faster than the teenagers. .
Most of the stumbling blocks failed, but there was still a stumbling block that accurately wrapped around the leg of a wilderness antlered deer and brought the wilderness antlered deer to the ground.
The teenagers cheered and caught up. Before the wilderness antlered deer hit by the stumbling block could struggle to stand up, several teenagers had already swarmed up, pushed it to the ground again, and tied up the limbs of the antlered deer with the rope tied to the stumbling block. , unable to move anymore.
"Ha, this is a female wilderness antlered deer. You can take it back to the village and raise it" A young man shouted with joy, "Now Ada will have deer milk to drink"
"Joy, you are such a good brother. Why don't you tell your family that when Ada grows up, let her marry me? I will wait for her for another ten years. Although Ada is only six years old now , but people in the village say she will be a beauty when she grows up!" a young man joked.
"Get out!" The boy named Joey waved his fist, "My Ada will marry at least one violent bear warrior in the future. This is what my father said. Let's wait and see when you can become a violent bear warrior!"
The boy named Joey said, but his eyes couldn't help but glance at the boy who took the lead among all the boys. That boy's name was Ivan. He was the boy in the whole village who was recognized so far as the boy who was most likely to become a violent bear warrior in the future. He is also the leader of their group.
???????? Do Father and Mother want to marry Ada to Ivan? The boy named Joey had strange thoughts in his mind. No, even if Ivan and I are friends, I can't take Ada away from me easily. I have to work hard to become a violent bear warrior, and then?Can protect Ada well
The boy who was the elder brother was thinking simply. Thinking that Ada might be taken away by a certain man in the future, the boy felt as if his most beloved thing was about to be taken away. In a short period of time, He once again strengthened his motivation to become a powerful violent bear warrior.
"Pack up your things, let's hurry up and leave here. It's a bit far away from the village" The boy named Ivan put away his javelin and looked around cautiously, "We have to catch up before we can return to the village. It¡¯s a long way and we have to go back before dark. If we encounter a hyena, we¡¯ll be in trouble!¡±
Because the harvest was good this time, everyone was very happy. After listening to Ivan's words, everyone speeded up their actions. The boy named Joey directly held the tied wilderness antlered deer against his body. The antlered deer weighed more than 50 kilograms. It didn't seem difficult to resist against a young man.
?? Everyone returned along the original road, and after quickly killing the two injured wilderness antlered deer that had lost the ability to move, the teenagers happily prepared to return to the village.
There is still more than thirty kilometers away from the village. If we don¡¯t waste time, everyone should be able to return to the village before the sun sets.
Because the color of the surface soil and stones here is gray, from a distance, except for those areas covered by vegetation, the color of the entire hills is gray. No one knows why this strange color appears here. There is just a saying that the soil here and the stones on the surface were originally underground and seemed to have a history of hundreds of millions of years. However, after the catastrophe, they were turned up from the ground like plows due to violent geological actions. .
And because of this reason. The soil here seems to contain some strange elements and nutrients that are rare in other places, so some special or higher-value plants will grow here, although not all plants are suitable for growing here. But plants can grow here. They will all grow very well, and there will even be some mutated plant species that can only be seen in this place.
And even in winter, the surface temperature here will be relatively higher than in other places. Many plants that can no longer survive in other places can still grow here. This is the magic of this place.
There is more than one place like this in the entire ice and snow wasteland, but it is relatively close to Eskil City. The straight-line distance is only more than 300 kilometers, so this place has become the most famous large medicinal material warehouse in the entire ice and snow wasteland.
For example, in the seabuckthorn forest that the teenagers saw just now when they were hunting those wilderness antlered deer, the roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits of common seabuckthorn all have very high medicinal and edible value, and the ones on the gray hills Sea buckthorn is a variant of sea buckthorn that lives on this land, so it is more valuable.
Especially the sea buckthorn oil here, the sea buckthorn oil produced in the ice and snow wasteland is the best in the entire Hawaii subcontinent. It is also the most precious sea buckthorn oil. The sea buckthorn oil here is one of the most important export materials in Eskil City. The sea buckthorn oil in the ice and snow wasteland is a must-have for almost every alchemist on the mainland in the elixir pharmacy or raw material warehouse. thing,
The teenagers walked quickly through the gray hills carrying today's harvest. In just one hour, they walked seven or eight kilometers. The harvested prey was carried by several people in turns. The boy who was hunting the prey held the weapon in his hand. Walk vigilantly at the front and back of the line.
The long-term cooperation has allowed the teenagers to develop a tacit understanding and know when to change shifts. Among all the teenagers, only Joey, who had just made up his mind to become a violent bear warrior, was particularly persistent today. He regarded carrying prey back to the village as an opportunity to train himself.
As the saying goes, whatever scares you comes. The teenagers had just been walking for more than an hour when the thing that worried them most happened - they were targeted by a group of iron-toothed hyenas.
The iron-toothed hyena is very sensitive to the smell of dead animals. It is nicknamed the Shark of the Wasteland. An iron-toothed hyena can smell the blood of other animals from a distance of one or two kilometers, and can follow that smell to find itself. prey.
There were only five or six iron-toothed hyenas that appeared behind this group of teenagers at first. After they appeared, they hurriedly followed the teenagers carrying the prey. The number of teenagers and the weapons in their hands did not allow them to get too close. He followed me unhurriedly.
These iron-toothed hyenas look a bit like dogs, but their heads are shorter than dogs, and they look rounder and have thicker skulls. Their front half is stronger than the back half, and their body hair is rough and hard, with gray bodies. It has dark brown spots, which are particularly easy to hide under the background color of this hill. It is difficult to detect without getting close.
Of course, if anyone wants to treat them as dogs, they will definitely eat them until they don¡¯t even have bones left. It really won¡¯t be left. This is no joke. Everyone in the entire ice and snow wasteland knows about iron-toothed hyenas. The strong and sharp jaws are best at crushing hard bones, and then allowing them to lick the marrow inside the bones.
Bone marrow is the hyena¡¯s favorite.
The iron-toothed hyenas that appeared behind the teenagers were all over 1.6 meters in length, and each one exuded a cunning and ferocious aura.
After being followed by the iron-toothed hyenas for a few minutes, Ivan, one of the young men in the team, gave a decisive order when he saw that he could not get rid of the iron-toothed hyenas or kill them.
"Leave a wasteland antlered deer behind!"
Although somewhat reluctant to part with it, a wilderness-antlered deer that was killed by the teenagers was quickly thrown behind them. Dropping a wilderness-antlered deer can increase the speed of action of the teenagers and free up one or two people. It also allowed the iron-toothed hyenas behind them to temporarily follow their footsteps.
It¡¯s best to get rid of these iron-toothed hyenas like this.
When leaving behind the antlered deer in the wilderness, this is the most real thought in every teenager's mind. No one understands the terror of these iron-toothed hyenas better than them.
After dropping the wilderness antlered deer, the teenagers ran away, with Joey carrying the still-living prey. Another person also took it over.
"Just after the teenagers ran a short distance, they all heard a terrifying sound of teeth breaking bones behind them.
The teenagers did not escape the pursuit of the iron-toothed hyenas. Less than five minutes after those iron-toothed hyenas disappeared, behind the teenagers. More iron-toothed hyenas began to appear. This time, the number of iron-toothed hyenas that appeared was no longer five, but a large group of them, at least twenty or thirty of them.
When I saw those twenty or thirty iron-toothed hyenas. The faces of the teenagers suddenly changed. They knew that this time, it was really bad. Iron-toothed hyenas were used to hunting in groups. The iron-toothed hyenas they encountered this time. Not three or five, but a herd of twenty or thirty iron-toothed hyenas.
This time, Ivan didn¡¯t even need to say anything. All the teenagers threw away the two wilderness antlered deer they were still holding without thinking, and then started running with all their strength. Even Joey didn¡¯t say anything. Because life is more important than anything else. If there are no more milk-producing wilderness antlered deer, you can catch them again, but once a person dies, there will be nothing left. The iron-toothed hyenas that appeared behind them now were beyond the limit of what they could handle.
None of the teenagers expected that they would actually encounter a beast tide this time, and that so many iron-toothed hyenas would appear so close to the village at once. This was something that had never happened before, and it was no longer close to their village. Far away, it was the traditional hunting range of their village in the past. Even when a beast tide breaks out, this area has a strong deterrent effect on those beasts, but this time, so many iron-toothed hyenas appeared here at once, and they were no longer the threat. But the safety of their entire village.
The teenagers tried their best to run in the direction of their own village. They were all panting. But before the teenagers could run two kilometers away, the iron-toothed hyenas behind them appeared again, and each of them looked at them fiercely. Looking at them
People can never outrun the iron-toothed hounds in the wild. If they continue to run, the iron-toothed hounds will only wait for them to be exhausted and then rush forward and easily suck out not a drop of their bone marrow.
The formation of the iron-toothed hounds following the teenagers began to spread out, and there was already a tendency to outflank them on both sides.
Seeing a mountain wall in front of him, Ivan immediately shouted, "Where can we form a formation"
A few minutes later, the teenagers stood tightly together with their backs against a mountain wall, each holding the weapons in their hands tightly. In front of them, a large group of iron-toothed hyenas slowly surrounded them.
Looking at those hyenas, the faces of the teenagers all turned pale. They knew that this time it would be more dangerous, but they just didn¡¯t know how many iron-toothed hyenas they could catch this time to give themselves the bottom.
"Joy, think about it, what I just said was serious!" The boy who was joking with Joey more than an hour ago didn't forget to add another sentence at this juncture.
"Damn it, let's wait until you survive!" Joey glared at that bastard fiercely.
"Shut up, you two!" Ivan shouted.
Just when the group of iron-toothed hyenas were getting closer and closer, and the palms of the young men holding the javelins were soaked with sweat, everyone suddenly heard a voice with obvious surprise.
"Wow, so many treasures, you are all mine"??¡±
This voice was full of surprise and sounded from a distance, like a tomb robber who saw a pile of treasures when he opened the coffin, or a traveler who had been in the desert for a long time and saw a vibrant oasis.
Hearing this voice, teenagers like Ivan and Joey were stunned for a moment. It was indeed shocking for such a voice to appear on such an occasion. What was even more difficult to understand was the meaning of these words - baby? Is there any treasure here? Are they these iron-toothed hyenas or something else?
Just when the teenagers thought they were hearing hallucinations, a sound sounded. It was like a buzzing, and a little like the subtle friction of a gear mechanism. It was very pleasant to the ears
As soon as this sound rang out, one of the group of iron-toothed hyenas surrounding several teenagers suddenly burst into a ball of bright blood without even barking. A big hole appeared in his whole body, and he was instantly covered with blood. A metal crossbow arrow penetrated and killed him.
The force of the metal crossbow arrow was very great, and its power was unparalleled. After killing the iron-toothed hyena, the crossbow arrow remained powerful and sank completely into the ground. Such power shocked several teenagers.
From this moment on, in front of several teenagers, the strange buzzing sound began to sound densely and frequently, with an average of almost three or four buzzes per second, and every time the sound sounded, several people were surrounded by it. One of the boy's iron-toothed hyenas would always have a snowflake bursting from his body, and then fall down in a bloody mess.
Everything that just happened was so fast. Not to mention a few teenagers, not even the iron-toothed hyenas could react. By the time those iron-toothed hyenas reacted, seventeen or eighteen of them had already been killed. ¡
In the eyes of several teenagers, a guy rushed down from the hillside in the distance. The man was very fast, and he was holding a huge crossbow-like thing in his hand. None of the teenagers had ever seen something so big and that big. The strange crossbow and the strange buzzing sound came from the thing that the man was holding,
While the man rushed over quickly, he took that thing and shot at the iron-toothed hyenas. The arrows were accurate and accurate. It was chilling. In the blink of an eye, several more iron-toothed hyenas were killed. Just now The iron-toothed hyenas, who were still staring at the teenagers, whined and turned and ran away one by one. The man seemed to have not seen the teenagers at all, without even saying hello, he took the thing in his hand and headed towards it. Those iron-toothed hyenas chased away
In the blink of an eye, a few more escaping iron-toothed hyenas burst into blood.
"Baby, don't run away" the man shouted
The teenagers looked at each other, wondering who this strange guy is - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
