Chirping birds echoed in the early morning forest.
As Zhen Jin and others approached, a group of birds flapped their wings and flew out of the branches in a panic.
Maybe it's because it's close to the desert. There is no morning fog here. The sun shines on the green forest, and the air is full of fresh smell.
Needle gold is still open at the front.
Although you can't see anything from the appearance, the tail vertebrae of needle gold at the moment, together with the hips, is still a little numb and sore.
He was in good health, and his injuries in the desert had healed long before he entered the forest.
As an ordinary person, Bai Ya's fracture injury has only slightly improved. So far, he can't pull the bow.
"Yesterday's training seemed a little heavy." Needle gold thought in her heart.
He knew that this kind of pain was caused by training lizards to swing their tails last night.
After the needle gold reverted to human form, although it had no tail, the injury suffered in the lizard form would still be left on his body in a similar form.
Just like when he was injured in Terran form, he will not change into other life forms because of the difference, so that the injury will heal instantly.
"Beating trees and stones with my tail won't hurt me. After all, what I turned into is a black iron lizard."
"It seems that I have a problem with the way I force the lizard tail."
"I hurt myself while practicing tail flicking."
"If it weren't for my strong recovery ability, I'm afraid my walking posture would be deformed."
Needle gold sighed.
After entering the forest, it was not convenient for him to practice late at night.
Previously, in the desert, the exploration team arranged a man's vigil.
Now the two people are keeping vigil at the same time, and Zhen Jin can't leave near the camp for too long. For too long, it will make other companions worry, and then find out, causing more trouble.
Needle gold can change the gun scorpion, and can also become a complete fat ball flying fish. But last night, he only had time to train the green lizard form, and the other two forms had no time to exercise at all.
"I'm basically familiar with the form of scorpion."
"As for fat ball flying fish..." needle gold has secretly changed in the desert and found that this form is not practical.
The strongest attack method of fat ball flying fish is to shoot pitch black poisonous fish bones.
But the premise of this attack is that the fat ball flying fish explodes.
This is the way to die together.
Sometimes, fat ball flying fish dies too suddenly to explode.
Needle gold to use this means, is undoubtedly a fancy suicide.
In addition, fat ball flying fish can be invisible.
But after the needle gold change, it was found that although the human eye could not observe this invisibility, the fat ball flying fish would open its mouth and make a croaking sound when floating forward. If Zhen Jin shut up and didn't make a croaking sound, he couldn't exchange air with the outside world, and he couldn't quickly drift in the air.
To a great extent, the use value of stealth is reduced.
So after knowing this, Zhen Jin is not happy to train his fat ball flying fish form.
He thought that the most practical form should be the green lizard.
The eyes of the green lizard brought him great help.
The acid spray of green lizard can be said to be the strongest long-range attack method that needle gold has mastered at present. The power of acid is much greater than that of wooden darts, and the range is almost the same. Needle gold is especially good at precision. The combination of the two is very powerful.
The green lizard shape is only black iron level, which is actually an advantage.
Silver level spear scorpion form will severely consume the magic power in the heart core. In comparison, the black iron green lizard consumes much less magic energy. This allows needle gold to have more time to fight and practice this form.
Black iron green lizard as a conventional means of combat, silver spear scorpion is encountered by a strong enemy, will use the bottom card.
This is the plan of Zhijin.
He didn't think so.
After being able to really control the heart core, his feelings about the heart core are more fear, preparedness and vigilance than curiosity, exploration and surprise.
He was not prepared to frequently use the magic core in his heart, but after being chased by fat ball flying fish in the oasis, Zhen Jin's idea changed.
"If I don't have green lizard eyes, I can't find fat ball flying fish."
"I'm unlucky myself. Zidi and cangxu won't survive!"
"Anything can happen on this island, and danger is likely to come at the next moment."
"I clearly have a heart core that can absorb blood and master some ability to deal with this danger. But I am prepared in advance because of caution. When the crisis comes, I can only wait to die with my hands tied. If this is the result, isn't I too pedantic?"
With these ideas in mind, Zhen Jin decided to use the heart core to prepare as much as possible for herself and ziti and others.
Take precautions before rain falls.
The complete form of fat ball flying fish is the result driven by this idea - when in the oasis, Zhijin secretly killed many fat ball flying fish with others on his back. Only then did he collect all the complete blood and become a black iron level Warcraft flying fish.
"Huh? Wait a minute." The moving needle gold suddenly caught a glimpse of a strange shape and immediately stopped.
Everyone immediately became nervous.
Since entering the forest this time, Zhijin has never taken the initiative to stop. Are you aware of a huge threat lurking around here?
Zhen Jin walked slowly to the left, and after a dozen steps, he stopped under a tree.
He reached out to touch the bark, which was damaged by a small piece, as if it was caused by a sharp weapon.
Needle gold looked around and soon found more tiny traces.
Then he looked as if he had found something.
He went deep into the dense grass and bent down to pick up a silver nail.
Other people came over. Cang Xu saw the armor piece in needle gold's hand and said in surprise, "this is part of the armor. The material is of high quality and is superior refined steel."
Zhen Jin nodded slightly and continued to search around.
All kinds of footprints of different depths, residual blood, fallen broken trees everywhere, the land exposed after the turf was completely removed... More and more traces were found by him, but needle gold could not simulate the scene of battle.
"There must have been a fierce battle here."
"The surviving party deliberately cleaned the battlefield, so I can't have more judgment."
Purple beauty blinked: "so, is there someone around here?"
Bai Ya asked, "what is it that fights them?"
Zhen Jin frowned, and his tone was not very sure: "it seems to be a huge beast, with a body larger than the explosive hoof horse, which is very heavy. The main attack method seems to be head butting."
"The crowd should win. Warcraft doesn't deliberately clean the battlefield."
Needle gold makes a judgment reluctantly.
"Are you sure it's a person?" Zi Di asked.
Zhen Jin shook his head: "I can only judge that it is humanoid form, but since they can clean the battlefield and are so excellent, it shows that they must have advanced wisdom. After the fierce battle, they still have spare efforts to clean up traces, which shows that they are not inferior."
Cang Xu squatted on the ground and felt his footprints with his fingers: "this battle happened a few days ago. What I care about more is, why do they clean the battlefield and clean up traces?"
Cang Xu's problem is exactly what Zhen Jin is worried about.
Needle gold and others are attacked by Warcraft, and rarely clean the battlefield. The most important thing is to clean up the blood and prevent the smell of blood from attracting other predators.
But this group of people not only cleaned the battlefield, but also did it very carefully.
This does not conform to common sense.
Such efforts to clean up the battlefield are not worth the loss. Because people will lose a lot of time and energy, every resource and every bit of energy need to be saved in the process of survival.
Even if these traces are left, the predators in the forest are also inferior in intelligence and will not benefit from the traces of the battlefield.
But this group of people just did it.
What do they need to guard against?
Who are they? Is it the crew of the pig kiss, or... The people on this island?
Zhen Jin looked into the distance, and her eyes were a little distracted because of thinking.
Something unexpected happened.
Now, there are two choices before him.
The first choice is to rush to the place where cangxu and others entered the forest before according to their original plan. In this way, they can verify and fill the map.
The second option is to give up this plan and approach this group of mysterious gangs that suddenly appear according to these traces.
There are many risks.
The combat power of the mysterious Gang is unknown, but it should not be low. The number of people is unknown, the race is unknown, and the intention is unknown.
Everyone was silent, some continued to observe the traces, and some were vigilant around.
They are all waiting for the decision of Zhijin.
Without spending too much time thinking, Zhijin quickly made a decision: "give up the previous plan, and we will follow these traces. Pay attention to safety."
"I see." White bud response.
"Yes, master." Cyanobacteria is concise and comprehensive.
Cang Xu and Zi Di nodded, and no one raised an objection.
The five person exploration team changed its direction and no longer walked close to the boundary between forest and desert, but officially went deep into the forest.
Two hours later, a river appeared in front of everyone.
Needle gold looked at the gurgling River and couldn't help sighing.
Here, the clues are broken.
He originally followed the trace, but the group were cleaning up the trace all the way.
They are experienced and sophisticated. After several days, Zhijin tried his best to recognize their previous route.
But when we arrived at the river, the traces left by the mysterious Gang completely disappeared because of the current.
"The river flow is very slow, and the riverbed is very low, only reaching the knees of adults. They step into the river here, but they don't directly climb the opposite bank. They don't know whether they will follow the river or climb upstream and land at a certain location."
"However, this means that the river is not very dangerous."
Needle gold narrowed her eyes and changed into lizard eyes. She found that there was almost no life in the river, at most some small fish and shrimp.
"Move on." After thinking for a while, Zhen Jin led his team across the river and came to the opposite bank.
There was no trace to trace, so the needle gold walked in the direction estimated by Cang Xu, and the destination was the stranded beach of the pig kiss.
About a quarter of an hour later, Zhen Jin was the first to hear the noise.
As the distance shortened, a group of five people found a camp in the forest.
The camp is surrounded by a row of wooden piles. The area of the camp is not large, but a wooden house hall has been built in the center. There are also two arrow towers in the camp, one has been built and the other has just taken shape.
A herd of animals is raging in the camp, and the personnel in the camp are huddled in the central wooden house hall, in a very bad situation.
