My different world is game mode

Chapter 186 Will not hesitate
Only a few minutes passed.

Lindsay dragged the carcasses of the remaining gray wolves back to the ground where the battle originally broke out.

The four tree spirits were trembling on the spot.

Hong was nonchalant, touching the spear thoughtfully, as if he was considering something very important.

"..."

Lindsay raised her eyebrows but didn't say anything more.

He briefly touched the corpse. The strength of these forest gray wolves varied. The strongest could reach level three, while the weakest was just a little stronger than ordinary animals.

The materials produced are mediocre, and even the number of achievement kills is still some way off.

But it was the giant bear that he killed in a sneak attack.
Because it is a five-stage Warcraft, after touching the corpse, he donated a special [Forest Bear Skin] to Lindsay, which also has a special synthesis formula.

[1 Forest Bear Skin + 6 Silk Threads = Sleeping Bear Cloak]

Lindsay's eyes lit up.

He had all these materials on hand and made a synthesis on the spot.

[Equipment: Sleeping Bear Cloak]

[A cloak made of the outer skin of a giant forest bear. When equipped, it increases strength and physique at the same time; the wearer gains the special ability [Hibernation].

(Hibernation: Reduces the physiological metabolic rate of the wearer and enters a special dormant state that does not require eating. During this period, low sensitivity to the outside world is maintained, and the maximum dormancy time is 36 months.)]

[A cloak with rare functions and high value. 】

"Hibernation..."

Lindsay raised an eyebrow.

The skills that come with this equipment are generally useless.

But in some special circumstances, it can have miraculous effects that are difficult to replace.

Lindsay immediately put the cloak on her body and looked at the attribute panel.

"..."

"As expected of a fifth-stage monster."

Strength and physique were increased by two points each. Faced with such data, Lindsay could not help but sigh.

At this time, he looked at the trembling tree spirits behind Hong.

So he put the dryad corolla in the equipment column, and then Lindsay said to Hong beside him:

"Red, why are they so scared?"

Hong tilted his head slightly, with an innocent smile on his lips:

"how could I know?"

"They were obviously rescued, and they were quite honest. I just told them not to talk casually, and they gradually became like that."

"..."

Lindsay rolled her eyes at Hong unceremoniously.

He ignored the girl's shouting and came to these frightened tree spirits. He deliberately squatted down to be at eye level with the other party.

This friendly attitude also pays off.

Escaping from a life-and-death crisis, he was watched over by a strong guy like Hong for a few minutes, until Lindsay, a human who was obviously easy to talk to, appeared.

One of the more courageous tree spirits asked tremblingly:

"Humans, I appreciate your help."

"If there is anything we can do, just tell us and we will try our best to complete it!"

This guy is smart enough to know that being left behind is useful.

Lindsay nodded slightly and replied in a frank and gentle tone:
"My companions and I were trying to cross this forest. When we saw you being chased, we came to help."

"There's nothing you must do now."

"But if you know it, I hope you can tell us the detailed conditions of this forest."

Lindsay's idea was simple.

The information given by the mountain stone elements is what they saw in the Starry Forest a few years ago, and may have expired now.

It would be great if we could get the news from the mouths of these guys who are currently in this situation.

Upon hearing Lindsay's inquiry, several tree spirits looked at each other.

For some reason, they all felt that they had a good impression of the humans in front of them. After whispering to each other, the leader of the tree spirits took the initiative to speak:
"Human, my advice is to turn back immediately."

"The woods ahead are much more dangerous than the direction you came from. If you go deeper, you will only become the nourishment of the forest."

Lindsay shook her head:

"We had reasons to go east, and now it's too late to turn back."

While talking, Lindsay took a look at his map.

After he clearly expressed his goodwill, the attitudes of the rescued tree spirits gradually changed from neutral yellow to friendly green.

After hearing Lindsay's statement, the tree spirit opposite continued:

"If you really plan to go to the east, I also suggest you take a detour."

"As you can see, we are being hunted, and the most dangerous area in the forest is right ahead. Regardless of race or height, any creature may lose its life or the source of survival."

The crazy tree mother, the high-pressure rule, and the dragon head constantly asking for the source of essence...Shu Jing's answer undoubtedly confirmed what Lindsay knew.

He thought for a moment and did not continue to force the tree spirit to insist on this issue. Instead, he decisively changed the topic:

"Then let's ask another question."

"What will happen if my companions and I continue to go east?"

This time the dryad's expression was more hesitant.

But Lindsay's good attitude, and the air of wanting them to be close relatives, eventually prevailed.

They communicated in low voices, overturning the last loyalty in their hearts.

"Humans, ahead is the land of Thorn Valley, where there are many of our compatriots."

"But unlike us who want to escape, they obey the Great Mother and fall into madness together. They will try to turn you into the nourishment of the forest and take your lives!"

Are there two situations: those who choose to escape, and those who choose to obey?

Lindsay understood, and then continued to ask:
"What about passing through the bottom of Thorn Valley and then heading east?"

The moment they heard this question, the four tree spirits began to tremble.

The thorny vines that made up their bodies even began to twitch and twine, making dense and tense friction sounds.

A fearful voice sounded:

"There is the banyan tree, our mother."

"You may think that relying on your own strength, you dare to try to cross the Thorn Valley. But please remember not to enter the banyan forest. It is best to follow the south and bypass the forest area. This is your only chance to survive."

Habitat of tree mother.

Lindsay understood immediately why, but also noticed a detail in the answer.

"Why do you want me to go around the south?"

The tree spirit replied sadly:
"Because there is also a dangerous existence living in the north. She can even command our mother, but being discovered by her will also lead to death."

Okay, now I even know where the dragon beast’s messenger is.

After determining the locations of the two most dangerous entities ahead, Lindsay was quite satisfied with the results of this rescue.

However, he looked at the corpse of the giant bear that was trampled under his feet, and asked cautiously:
"I rescued you here and killed this giant bear."

"Will your mother know about this immediately?"

"Death can happen at any time in the forest." The dryad shook his head and denied. "A few decades ago, a sober mother would have noticed it immediately. But now, it may take dozens of days for her to start to react."

Lindsay looked at Hong aside:
"A few dozen days should be enough for us to get around it."

The tree spirit kindly reminded:

"But you should also be careful of the pursuers sent out after being discovered."

"You may be very strong, but the power in the forest is endless!"

Hearing this, Hong smiled disdainfully:
"Ah--"

"If you catch up, catch up, or risk your life to see who is the final winner!"

After finishing her words, Hong tightened her grip on the meteorite spear.

She prepares to clean up hidden dangers.

But at this moment, the girl saw Lindsay's fingers shaking slightly.

"Tsk—"

The girl shook her head in dissatisfaction.

She said nothing and did not look at the four tree spirits, but she still held the meteorite spear tightly in her hand.

"..."

Lindsay kept her promise and did not continue to embarrass these tree spirits.

After asking about the situation in the forest ahead, he let these guys go and continued to run for their lives.

After a quarter of an hour, the two of them packed up the battlefield and continued on their way.

Hongcai looked at Lindsay with some confusion:
"Lindsay, why didn't you let me kill them just now?"

"What if these guys leak our information?"

Lindsay shook her head:

"They don't know what we're here for. It's enough to kill all the pursuers."

After answering, Lindsay gave another example:
"And think about it, if we kill Elder Roots at the beginning of the canyon, we won't be able to get this aura-confusing amulet later. It will be easy to be noticed in the forest, and then we will be besieged. status."

"Sometimes appropriate kindness is also the choice to help yourself overcome difficulties."

Hong curled his lips and put the meteorite spear on his shoulder with a neat movement.

The girl did not refute Lindsay because she knew what she said was right, but some inexplicable habit in her heart made her feel very uncomfortable.

It wasn't until she thought about what she might encounter later that she asked again:
"Lindsay, if we encounter the situation, we may be discovered by the tree mother..."

Lindsay directly interrupted Hong's question and gave a firm answer:

"Unnecessary killings must of course be avoided."

"But if it comes to that critical moment - Hong, believe me, I will never hesitate!"
