Chapter 38

The second half of the night.

Ji Xinghuo woke up on time, glanced at the mechanical watch, and slept for six hours by himself.

The astral world has entered the "middle moon", which is the fifth month of the hot season, the most middle month of this season.On the 18th day of the mid-moon, starry night and dark night will be equal in length, both 12.4 hours.After that day, the starry night will be longer than the dark night, and the weather will be hotter and hotter.

Ren Mian was sitting at the door of the tent with his eyes slightly closed, as if he hadn't moved for hours.

Ji Xinghuo sat up, this small movement immediately aroused her vigilance, she opened her eyes to look over.

The two made eye contact in the dark.

Ren Mian got up to get out of the way, and Ji Xinghuo went to take her place, sitting on the straw mat that was still warm, watching her get into the sleeping bag beside Jiangnan Caiyi, and fell asleep within half a minute.

Ji Xinghuo looked away.

He also closed his eyes slightly, but he was not sleepy and was full of energy.The magnetic field induction extends outward instantly, and all movements within 350 meters are reflected in the brain.

It was very quiet in the col.

The sound of insects sounded from time to time made the dark surroundings even deeper.

Occasionally, wild animals pass by, and the tent hidden in the thorn bushes will not be found. If you approach it carelessly, you will be driven away by the smell of animal repellent grass.

Ji Xinghuo was bored, opened the interface of Vientiane Star Pupil, thought for a moment, and put all the 15 points of spiritual energy obtained today into the "rotating magnetic field".

The upgrade progress becomes 117/359.

It is still far from being promoted to level two, and the strengthening effect on the body is not very obvious, but the range of magnetic field induction has expanded by nearly ten meters.

With his current position in the team, the stronger his perception, the better, and the safer everyone will be.

Ji Xinghuo calculated.

When the progress of the rotating magnetic field is fully upgraded, the distance of the magnetic field induction should be about 500 meters.

This is a safe enough distance, even for a legendary ranger, it is difficult to launch a fatal attack on a target 500 meters away.

As for the enemies above the legend, if we really want to meet them, it doesn't matter whether they can perceive them or not.

The vigil was the hardest.

However, Ji Xinghuo has a lot of concentration and maintains a relatively high level of concentration.During these six hours, a monster had entered the range of the magnetic field induction, but he did not approach the tent, so he did not alert his teammates and let the monster leave.

At dawn, the teammates all woke up.

Jiangnan Caiyi warmed up the leftover spider leg meat from last night and made it everyone's breakfast. After adding water, the team continued on the road.

Before leaving the camp, Ren Mian removed the plant protection outside the tent, recovered seeds and samples, and restored the place to its original state.

All the way west.

By noon, the team had advanced more than 70 kilometers.

The few battles I encountered were not too intense, and I harvested two alien species, but only one was high-quality, worth about [-] Asian dollars.

After walking a long distance in the afternoon, Ji Xinghuo felt a little strange, he had never encountered any monsters, and even the number of wild beasts had decreased.

"Sister Ren, are we entering the territory of some powerful monster?" He asked in a low voice.

"Probably not."

Ren Mian took out a map, the drawing was very rough, but there were a few places marked with red crosses, indicating dangerous restricted areas.

"We are not in the danger zone, and the nearest one is far away." She reconfirmed after careful study, "Either it was bad luck and I didn't meet them, or there is a settlement of alien races in the star world nearby, or there is a tribe."

Ji Xinghuo asked: "Is there an alien race in the astral world to the west of Liberty City?"

"Of course there are." Chi Zhonglin laughed, "There are no alien races anywhere in the star world, there are dozens of races in Qianfengyuan Forest alone, and they are all vassals of the Heavenly Feather Royal Court in name."

Ren Mian reminded: "Most alien races can communicate, but don't let your guard down, and don't approach them lightly. Because the few alien races that cannot communicate are sometimes more dangerous than monsters. You don't know if they are hostile."

She listed some alien races in the astral world, and described in detail the abilities and customs of these alien races.

"I remember." Ji Xinghuo nodded.

Along the way, his teammates often passed on hunting experience and astral knowledge to him.

Most of the time, it was Ren Mian who said that she had a very deep understanding of the astral world.

Chi Zhonglin and Jiangnan Caiyi have been in the Star Realm for several years, but they know that there is a world of difference compared to Ren Mian, so they often have to listen carefully.

Ji Xinghuo's memory is very good, and he basically remembered everything.

In fact, before entering the astral world, Ji Xinghuo learned a lot of knowledge about foreign races. His university major was astral language, and the three foreign languages ​​came with related courses.Language is the best window into a race or a civilization.

In this regard, his foundation is better than most people, and he knows everything.

When the starry night is approaching.

Ji Xinghuo stopped suddenly, and said in a low voice: "Someone is approaching, it's not a monster." After careful identification, he said: "Three forest patrols."

Sure enough, there are alien tribes nearby.

Ren Mian was not surprised and asked, "Can you tell which clan branch it is?"

"No." Ji Xinghuo shook his head.

Magnetic field induction has no color, and you can’t see the picture. The image in your mind is very abstract. You can only identify your identity by the shape of the magnetic field, and judge the strength of the magnetic field.

His face changed slightly, "These three rangers have spotted us and are coming towards us."

"Let's avoid it."

Ren Mian didn't want to have a conflict with a foreign race, which might cause a lot of trouble.

"Their speed is very fast, I'm afraid they can't avoid it." Ji Xinghuo felt that the comer was not friendly, and he had already held the compound bow in his hand, and drew out the arrow to hit it.

There was the sound of hurried footsteps ahead, like the intensive trampling of horseshoes.

"Get ready." Ren Mian put his hand on his belt, Chi Zhonglin put down his backpack, and stood in front of the team holding a gun. Jiang Nan Caiyi's figure disappeared into the air.

Soon, three tall figures rushed out of the dense forest.

Their upper body is similar to humans, but their lower body is cloven-hoofed, like a horse or a deer, with huge black hooves, leather armor on their extremely strong bodies, protruding faces, huge nostrils, a pair of forked black horns on both sides of their heads, and round eyes, revealing primitive and fierce gazes.

The one in the lead was obviously male, with its head more than two and a half meters above the ground, its bare chest extremely strong, its four legs as thick as a column, and it held a huge spear in its hand and carried a bundle of javelins on its back.

The two beside him have female features, their bodies are smaller and more flexible, but they are also close to two meters tall, and each holds a heavy longbow.

They all have blood red tattoos on their skin, all over their bodies.

"Forest patrol!"

Ji Xinghuo thought to himself.

Forest rangers are very common in the star world, and they are a very large race. They live in the forest and claim to be the masters of the forest.

On the whole, the talent of the patrolling tribe is moderate among the alien races in the star world, and their intelligence level is also relatively high.

However, the ranger tribe is a race dominated by beliefs, and differences in beliefs make the good and evil tendencies of different ranger tribes diametrically opposite.

Some rangers respect nature and are hospitable.

Some forest patrols are brutal and violent, hostile to all outsiders who enter the territory, like uncivilized wild animals.

Ren Mian has activated the "Thinking Necklace", and her voice sounded in her head: "I have never seen this clan, try to communicate first."

"I don't know the language of the Forest Patrollers." Ji Xinghuo replied, "But maybe they can understand the language of the Celestial Clan. Let me try."

As Tianyu Royal Court is the ruler of Qianfeng Yuanlin, the language of the Celestial Clan should have weight.

"Everyone..."

As soon as Ji Xinghuo opened his mouth, the male ranger on the opposite side suddenly let out a roar, sprinted with all four hooves, and quickly pulled out a javelin and threw it over.

The other two female rangers also shot arrows.

"what's the situation……"

Ji Xinghuo was at a loss, not knowing where he had offended the other party.

But his reaction was not slow at all, and the arrows on the compound bow were shot almost simultaneously.

Green light bloomed in Ren Mian's hand, and a group of dry leaves unfolded instantly, forming a green lotus leaf with a diameter of about two meters, like a round shield blocking himself and Ji Xinghuo.

And Chi Zhonglin had already rushed out.

puff!
The javelin pierced the "shield leaf lotus" and penetrated the lotus leaf, but was stuck on it.The two thick arrows were also blocked by the lotus leaves.

At the same time, a female ranger screamed.

"what……"

A willow leaf arrow pierced her eyes, pierced her head, and fell to the ground in an instant.

The remaining female forest patrol, seeing Ji Xinghuo draw another arrow to aim at herself, panicked in her eyes, fixedly staring at Ji Xinghuo's compound bow, trying to dodge the arrow, but she didn't realize that a transparent figure had circled behind her.

Jiangnan Caiyi suddenly appeared, the samurai sword flashed past, and beheaded the unsuspecting enemy with one blow.

In one face-to-face meeting, two forest patrols died.

The leading male didn't have time to rescue him, but the death of his tribe aroused his ferocity, and he slammed into the oncoming Chi Zhonglin.

"Ho!"

Chi Zhonglin's body swelled to the height of a forest patrolman, his arm muscles exploded, and he touched the opponent's spear without any pretense.

The advantages of the lava gun are immediately apparent.

The forest patrol's spear snapped, and a scorching force penetrated his body along his arm, and he opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood.

Chi Zhonglin turned the tip of the spear, taking advantage of the enemy's defenselessness, and pierced the heart with a single shot.

The strength on the gun exploded, and the chest exploded directly.

Chi Zhonglin pulled out his spear, and the blood stained on it was burned dry in an instant, he withdrew immediately without even looking at the enemy's body.

"Walk."

Without hesitation, Ren Mian told his teammates to leave immediately.

Chi Zhonglin carried his bag with a spear and ran in the front, followed by Ji Xinghuo and Jiangnan Caiyi, and Ren Mian who was behind threw a black flower on the ground.

The black flower took root, and the root system spread rapidly, devouring all the plants it came into contact with, no matter flowers, shrubs or big trees, were swallowed madly and turned into nutrients, and a pool of liquid-like creep grew.

The black creep blanket covered a hundred meters, eating the corpses of three rangers and digesting them cleanly.

In less than 10 minutes, the trees turned into a pool of black water.

A moment later, a group of forest patrols arrived here, looking at the empty black ground, their faces were full of jealousy and anger, but they were also very dazed.
