The end of the world: mountain and sea disasters

Chapter 30 Tracking in the Snow
The farm was attacked.

The task of tracking the human-faced owl was quickly posted to the ranger's work log.

At this time, Yu Ke was busy forming a group with others to clear the dungeon.

With nothing to do, he followed the advice of his colleagues and played a game to pass the time after exercising.

As a result, I had only been playing for two hours when other rangers and hunters suddenly shouted in the channel,

"Look at the work log, new task!"

The human-faced owl attacks the farm again. The Disaster Prevention Bureau needs nearby forest rangers to track the signals on the attacker's clothes, locate the hiding place of the human-faced owl, and try to rescue the attacker. The reward is extremely generous.

"In this kind of weather, even if we have cold-proof clothes, we are very likely to be in danger when we enter Jinghu Forest, not to mention the snowstorm outside has not stopped yet. If we encounter an accident, I'm afraid it will be disaster!"

After a brief silence, a ranger hunter in the channel who had seen the mission said,

"Even if it's to save people, it's not this kind of rescue."

Generally speaking, if a ferocious beast attacks an ordinary person in the Jinghu Forest, the forest ranger will definitely try to rescue it.

The problem is that the first snowstorm of the cold wave has not yet ended, and any rash intrusion into the Mirror Lake Forest is taking a risk.

You must know that the target of tracking is the human-faced owl that escaped from the hunting team.

Judging from the fact that the human-faced owl can travel long distances to the farm in a blizzard, it is most likely not afraid of blizzards, and at least has the ability to fly long distances in them. If it were to be encountered head-on, the forest ranger would not even know whether he would survive, let alone save others. .

“Considering the current severe weather in Jinghu Forest, the Disaster Prevention Bureau does not require forest rangers to kill the human-faced owl, but only needs to track it. This is the newly updated mission information, as well as the accompanying flight path of the human-faced owl. "

"It seems that we are going to pass through the forest area where Yu Ke is. Yu Ke, what are your plans?"

"Yu Ke. Where are the others?"

We exchanged a few words on the channel, but never heard Yu Ke's reply.

Finally, I saw that Yu Ke had left a message in the team channel a few minutes ago.

'I'm going to drive the BOSS, you guys play first. '

Outside the forest patrol camp.

Yu Ke, who was fully armed, drove a snowmobile and galloped into the wind and snow.

Ever since he killed the giant python and obtained its meatballs, Mo Jin and a lot of professional experience, Yu Ke became more and more determined to hunt the ferocious beast.

The human-faced owl is currently a dangerous beast jointly wanted by the Disaster Prevention Bureau and the Forestry Defense Bureau.

If he could successfully complete the hunt, the benefits would far exceed his step-by-step work.

Therefore, after seeing that the human-faced owl's marching route happened to pass through the forest area he was responsible for, Yu Ke took decisive action.

Lowering his body, Yu Ke opened the barrier on the motorcycle's head to block the wind and snow. At the same time, he turned on the tracking device on the on-board computer and loaded the flight path of the human-faced owl sent by the Disaster Prevention Bureau and the point where it finally disappeared.

The positioning device at the Disaster Prevention Bureau has a limited range. What Yu Ke has to do now is to judge the flight route and rush to the area where the human-faced owl is as quickly as possible to re-capture the positioning signal of the missing person.

The scale of the snowstorm at this stage has weakened compared to when the cold wave first broke out.

Although the intensity is still high, the visibility has finally increased, and it cannot prevent Yu Ke, whose perception has been greatly improved, from taking action.

With its own senses and the searchlight on the front of the snowmobile.

Yu Ke drove a snowmobile through the forest, avoiding obstacles one after another, and made rapid progress all the way. The route given by the Disaster Prevention Bureau was accurate. About half an hour later, Yu Ke noticed a new positioning signal on the screen.

There is no doubt that this is the farmer captured by the human-faced owl in this attack.

Raising his hand and tapping the screen repeatedly, Yu Ke checked the direction of the human-faced owl's flight. Sure enough, it was deep in the Jinghu Forest. It was probably going to return to its nest to enjoy.

This gave Yu Ke the opportunity to track.

At this time, the benefits of the blizzard were gradually revealed. The bad weather caused the beasts in the forest to hibernate. While clearing the driveway for Yu Ke, it also covered his traces. As long as a certain distance could be maintained, even the human-faced owl could not notice it. to his tracking.

The only problem is that in this chasing state, Yu Ke can't take action.

Sharp-toothed bows and arrows were obviously not accurate enough in this environment, and the consequences of a rash attack could only be noticed by the human-faced owl.

Yu Ke didn't want to give up this hard-won tracking opportunity.

Even if you have to chase him deep into the Jinghu Forest for this.

In fact, this time is a great opportunity to enter the depths of Jinghu Forest alone.

The thick snow buried the ferns and condensed into ice due to the extremely low temperature. Snowmobiles could travel through it without any hindrance, and it could even be said to be smooth.

One after another, thick tree trunks passed by me. Occasionally, I could see the top leaves of ferns stuck diagonally in the snow, and a spider web frozen into an ice sculpture on the left front. The giant spider was still there. The center is entrenched, but it has been covered by wind and snow
and many more.

Why are these sights so familiar?
His eyes lingered on the giant spider. After careful observation, Yu Ke determined that he was now on the route that the transport team took to the small garden workstation not long ago.

Is this a coincidence?
Yu Ke couldn't care too much, he was already here and he would never give up.

However, just after he continued to track for a certain distance, the positioning signal suddenly stopped moving.

Has the human-faced owl arrived at its nest?
Realizing this possibility, Yu Ke felt happy, thinking that he could finally start a formal hunt.

However, what happened next quickly made Yu Ke pour cold water on his head, because he saw the familiar dense forest area in front of him. The ceiling of the small garden workstation built on the ground was removed from the camouflage, and someone was moving in the snow. , looks like it's being moved.

This made Yu Ke think of another possibility.

The human-faced owl became aware of his pursuit and gave up on its prey.

To verify this, Yu Ke drove a snowmobile close to the security personnel at the workstation without hesitation, and his appearance soon caused a commotion.

Fortunately, the snowmobile with the logo of the Forestry Protection Bureau helped Yu Ke identify himself and there was no misunderstanding.

Looking at the unconscious farmer wearing thick thermal clothing on the ground, Yu Ke sighed, and then saw the security guard opposite pointing to his right ear, making a communication gesture, and opened the helmet's communication channel.

After briefly describing what happened, Yu Ke said that he could not take the farmer back because there was not much room for snowmobiles.

"His shoulder was pierced by the claws of the human-faced owl. He needs immediate treatment. Just leave it to us. There is a full set of medical equipment in the workstation. There is plenty of food. He can eat with multiple mouths. When the cold wave is over, we will let him follow. The convoy returns.”

After all, it fell at the door of the workstation. The security personnel did not intend to leave the person alive, but put the person on a stretcher and prepared to transport him back.

"Did you notice the last whereabouts of the human-faced owl?"

After chasing for so long, Yu Ke was still unwilling to give up and asked.

Southeast direction.

The last known location of the human-faced owl.
