The end of the world: mountain and sea disasters

Chapter 17: Having evil intentions
A sudden call for help.

Even if the other party might be a poacher, Yu Ke still had to take action.

On the one hand, he was not 100% sure of the other party's identity. He had never rashly broken into Jinghu Forest in the past.

As a patrol hunter, Yu Ke did have the responsibility to rescue them.

On the other hand, Yu Ke was quite concerned about the location where the opponent was attacked.

That is the activity range or territory of the Shadow Moon Leopard!

If Yu Ke's previous speculation was correct, what they encountered was probably the Shadow Moon Leopard, which was the most difficult target in Yu Ke's first mission. They just took this opportunity to get it done, and they would have time to deal with their own affairs tomorrow.

The off-road vehicle left the camp and melted into the night.

Yu Ke transferred the rescue coordinates to the on-board computer and asked it to give the shortest route.

The rain had reduced compared to the morning, leaving only some hazy drizzle swaying in the wind.

Along the forest road, the off-road vehicle turned on its headlights, and Yu Ke turned on the radio channel to try to contact the rescuers again.

呲~呲呲~
The sound of electricity mixed with the sound of rain, and heavy breathing came from the channel.
"Are you almost there?"

"You run to the road and don't stay in the jungle. My car can't enter the forest!"

Yu Ke repeatedly reminded that at this time, there was thick fog in the forest and the light was dim.

If these people were running around inside, unless it was a stroke of luck, he would not be able to save them at all. He could only keep them as close to the road as possible so that he could find them as soon as he arrived nearby.

no respond.

It may be that the signal in the forest is not good, and after a brief contact, the channel fell into silence.

Yu Ke had no choice but to continue to approach the area where the other party was, hoping that they would listen to what he said.

About ten minutes later, Yu Ke arrived at the area where the call for help was last sent, slowed down the vehicle, and installed a red and blue warning light on the top of the off-road vehicle, trying to use this method to indicate the direction of travel for the caller.

Compared with the searchlight in front of the car, the red and blue double flash lights are obviously more effective in this dark jungle.

After walking about a hundred meters, Yu Ke noticed an embarrassed figure jumping out from the roadside ahead. He ran to the middle of the road, spread his arms and swayed twice, and then held on to his knees as if he was losing strength.

He quickly drove over and in the process, Yu Ke looked at the other party's attire.

He had a full set of off-road equipment and a short knife on his waist. More importantly, even when he was running for his life, this guy was actually carrying a bag in his hand, and most of the weapons stored in it were his hunting weapons.

Seeing this scene, Yu Ke's eyes gradually turned cold.

Pretending!

After approaching, he turned the steering wheel, and the off-road vehicle flicked elegantly and stopped in front of the rescuer. Yu Ke was about to ask someone to get in, but the latter stepped forward and stood at the window to plead,

"I have two companions. They are in the woods nearby. They are injured and cannot run. Please help."

Yu Ke glanced over and saw a rough man's face under the hood of his raincoat. He looked like he had often experienced wind and rain outside. The left side of his face was stained with blood. There was panic in his eyes, but there were also other emotions hidden in his eyes.

"Take me to them."

Without much nonsense, Yu Ke turned around and pushed open the cab door, carrying the Leviathan Ax behind his back before getting out of the car.

Opening the full-coverage helmet and turning on the lights on both sides, Yu Ke followed the man off the road toward the rain-shrouded jungle next to him.

After walking out for about ten meters, Yu Ke heard someone calling for help.

Glancing at the man who was walking side by side with him at some point and no longer walking in front of him, Yu Ke walked forward on his own and soon found two people leaning against a tree, a man and a woman, both with backpacks beside them. .

The one with injured legs and feet was one of the women. Her trouser legs were pulled up halfway, revealing half of her long jade-white legs. Her hair was wet from the rain. She looked at Yu Ke pitifully, stretched out her hand and said sadly,
"Please help me, I really can't walk."

"Hel her up. My car is over there. What kind of monster are you being chased by?" Yu Ke asked in a deep voice, with no intention of leaning over.

"It's a terrifying leopard. We are researchers sent by the Danhang City Institute of Nature. We wanted to observe the growth of the jungle in the rainy environment, but unexpectedly it followed us, right over there!"

When the man next to the tree saw that Yu Ke didn't come up to help him, his expression froze, and then he suddenly turned his head and looked to the side as if he had discovered something.

Hearing that the monster was nearby, Yu Ke turned his head subconsciously.

Almost at the same time, the man squatting next to the tree and the guy behind Yu Ke suddenly stood up, took out a short knife from his side and rushed towards Yu Ke, trying to kill Yu Ke on the spot.

The face of the woman who was still pretending to be pitiful before showed even more amusement.

So what if you escaped the beauty trap?
Their hunting failed, so they had to get something back after all, and the ranger hunter in front of them was their "recovery pack".

As long as they kill him, the off-road vehicle on the road outside will be their means of return. The vehicle and the things in the camp will also allow them to easily survive the rainy day, and maybe they can continue hunting after resting.

Kill that damn leopard!

Puchi~
Warm blood spattered on the woman's face, and her playful expression turned into astonishment.

The companion next to him was chopped in the center of the cheek with a dog-legged knife. The blade brought blood across the rain. The other man held a short knife in his hand, but his neck was strangled by a generous hand. His fingers used force to directly break the flesh. The sound of the spine breaking was particularly clear. .

In a flash of lightning, two people died!

The woman raised her head blankly, and all she saw was the figure of the ranger standing on the spot. Even with the helmet covering her face, she could still feel the cold gaze cast from behind the mask.

Yu Ke's guess was correct.

This is a team of poachers, and desperadoes at that.

The Forestry Protection Bureau has mentioned these people in training for a long time. In order to obtain the high-value items produced in Jinghu Forest, they don't mind killing people and stealing goods. Their moral bottom line is very low.

Therefore, the first time he saw the people asking for help, Yu Ke was already on guard. How could he let them succeed in a sneak attack?

Two ordinary people wanted to kill him, an extraordinary person, with daggers. They were really going to hell without any door!

"What is your purpose in breaking into Jinghu Forest?"

Taking out the hand that broke the poacher's neck, Yu Ke spoke indifferently.

This was Yu Ke's first time killing someone, and he thought it would be an extremely difficult thing.

When it came time to actually take action, he discovered that he was far more ruthless and even cruel than he had imagined.

Maybe it’s because I’ve never really integrated into this world.

In Yu Ke's eyes, these people in front of him are not much different from the NPCs in the game.

He can say that he has no worries in this world, and his behavior has no taboos.

"Don't kill me, I. I'll tell you everything."

Seeing two companions dying on the spot after just one encounter, the woman immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

Yu Ke's hand holding the dog-leg knife tightened and unclenched,

"Answer the question I just asked!"

"Shadow Moon Leopard! Someone offered us a high price to hunt it. We will be paid 800,000 yuan to bring the body back, and the alive one is worth two million!"

Looking at the dagger dripping with blood in Yu Ke's hand, the woman did not dare to hide anything.
