.Chapter 328 Skeleton Forest (I)

"Hu~~Hu~~ It's finally safe!" Chen Kai was nestled in a small tree. The whole tree was very dry and covered with dead grass and branches. According to Chen Kai's estimate, this tree was probably the nest of some kind of creature. Although occupying someone's nest may cause dissatisfaction with that creature, for Chen Kai at this moment, nothing is more important than taking a good rest and resting his strength.

"Fortunately, I didn't encounter any monsters when I rushed over this time, otherwise I really didn't know how to escape!" Chen Kai muttered to himself while putting ointment on his back. Although the wind wolf almost caused Chen Kai to kill him without causing any serious injuries, or because of excessive blood loss and the overdrawn life, a big spell broke out, which resulted in a lot of damage. This also reduced the benefits Chen Kai obtained a lot, and the power of the fragments caused by the wood penetrated by the wind blade and the tornado was very huge, which made his back hurt.

After finally healing his injuries, Chen Kai couldn't wait to take out the two things that were dug out of the body of the demon wolf from his backpack, but his face immediately turned green after he got it in his hand. Because he actually found that the magic crystal he had finally found was actually broken, and the magic stone taken out of the demon wolf's magic bag containing the demon stone actually had no magic power. Or maybe there might be magic power in the past, but after the attack broke out, the magic power was exhausted, so the two things that Chen Kai found were almost worth much.

Perhaps the damaged magic crystals can be polished into inlays on jewelry, ornaments, but magic stones that lose their magic power will never be valuable than flour, because they are almost flour. Chen Kai just gently pinched the tiny green magic stones as hard as iron when full of magic power and turned into thin powder, falling down from Chen Kai's fingertips.

"It's so unlucky!" Chen Kai looked at the remaining magic stone powder in his palm and put them away in a small bottle. Although these magic stone powders do not have much magic power, they can at least be used to make the ink needed to copy the spell scroll. So even if these magic stone powders are not worth many gold coins, Chen Kai will put them away carefully. Diligence and thrift are the king!

After packing up everything, Chen Kai took out the food and water from his backpack and prepared to take a good rest. However, the things on his hands were still cold baked and bread, because Chen Kai knew that any food that could emit fragrance in this forest where there was no danger was present, it was very toxic. Although it would not let you lose your life after eating it, it would definitely attract monsters that could kill you. So when you were alone, Chen Kai could only choose to eat cold hard dry and bread to satisfy your hunger.

After eating, Chen Kai opened his map and studied his position. After the crazy running just now, Chen Kai was very successful and sadly again. Although Chen Kai ran towards the southwest when he ran, in fact, he could no longer identify the exact direction when he was running in the forest. So when Chen Kai had time to settle down, he had already found that he seemed to have run in the wrong direction. Because not only did he not approach the Zera Fortress in the southwest, he seemed to be getting farther and farther away from it.

"It seems to be going backward!" After comparing the position where he is now on the map with his previous position, Chen Kai tragically found that he seemed to be running backward during the period of running wildly. The result of running to the southwest became the southeast.

Close his map again, Chen Kai took out his magic pointer depressedly, and after determining the direction again, he slowly climbed out of the tree and walked towards the direction of Zela Fortress. When he left, he left all the strips of cloth used to wipe the blood in the tree, and also sprayed some grass juice to cover the breath on his body. Of course, these grass juices were specially selected by Chen Kai. According to the game he downloaded, he specially found some grass from the grass on the edge with rubbed and made it.

Compared with those terrifying monsters, the abundant grass resources in the forest made Chen Kai very excited. If it weren't for the surrounding environment that was too dangerous, Chen Kai had to fill his backpack with ingredient in this jungle. Of course, Chen Kai would not be so stupid that he would really pack his backpack with ingredient. In this way, he would store other items in the place. For example, some plants with strange appearances or some stones with ore characteristics are all objects that Chen Kai focused on collecting.

However, the most important thing for Chen Kai is to draw a map, because only after drawing this map will he not be punished too much after returning to the fortress, and he will not be locked up for several months for desertion. Fortunately, Chen Kai still has some paper drawings in his backpack, and his shallow spell knowledge still allowed him to master a travel spell - drawing a map.

In fact, the so-called travel spell is not a spell at all, it can only be regarded as a trick. Basically, most players and indigenous adventurers master this little trick. After all, there are too many adventurers traveling in the wild in this continent, and the area of ​​the continent is too large. Not to mention that Chen Kai is in this place, there are still many lush and terrifying primeval forests next to those prosperous and messy high-level main cities. When all adventurers enter the adventure industry, they are told an important thing, that is, record all the footprints you have stepped on and draw all the places you have experienced. This is not only valuable information that you can personally pass on to family traditions, but also the common wealth of all adventurers.

Chen Kai slowly used his magic to erect a thin goose pen according to the casting requirements of the travel spell, and then slowly outlined everything around him on a flat sheepskin. This small lambskin dedicated to drawing was accompanied by a drawing technique, otherwise those adventurers who were not magic could not use this sheepskin to record the map. Under Chen Kai's goose pen, his surroundings were carefully portrayed on the sheepskin, forming a small icon, especially the big tree with trees behind him, which was regarded as an important mark by Chen Kai.

At the same time, Chen Kai also marked the grass around him. The grass commonly used by wizards such as the Moxing Zi Momo Grass are everywhere. Therefore, Chen Kai marked the area. After all, this grass grows in ordinary grass all year round, but the amount is very large. No matter which agent configuration, it requires a lot of this grass as a guide, so the value of this grass is very high for wizards.

"Hmm? Unfortunately, all ordinary grass is very expensive, but it is not worth much!" Chen Kai slowly put away the lambskin. Under the influence of magic, the ink on it quickly turned into charred marks and was branded tightly on the sheepskin. Unless the whole piece of sheepskin is damaged, the map on this sheepskin will never disappear.

After leaving the grass-covered bushes, Chen Kai slowly moved towards the area where Zera Fortress was located according to the mark of the magic pointer in accordance with the direction of the system map. Although moving forward like this may lead to the area where higher monsters live, Chen Kai, who is not familiar with the terrain and environment, could only try his luck in this forest in this way. All he had to do now was pray that his bad luck had faded and he would not encounter such terrifying monsters or encounter terrifying natural traps again.

However, Chen Kai's prayer did not seem to be conveyed to the great God of Luck. He was still very unlucky to wander around the forest. At the same time, he encountered some advanced monsters from time to time. The proportion of creatures like violent wild bears in the entire forest is very large. Almost several can be encountered every one or two miles. This huge bear with a body length of three meters has terrifying power. Chen Kai clearly saw a big tree worth hundreds of meters being directly shot into two by a big bear. Chen Kai estimated that if his body was shot by the other party, it would definitely be more direct than those big trees that were broken.

However, Chen Kai's luck has not yet declined to its limit. Although he encountered many violent wild bears, he almost escaped before entering the other party's sight. After all, the blind bears' eyes are not very good, even if their sense of smell is very sensitive, they must smell the human taste on Chen Kai. With the whole body covered with grass juice, Chen Kai probably won't even think of himself as a haystack.

As time goes by, a quiet day for this forest finally passed, and a noisy night as usual began slowly, because most of the animals were nocturnal animals. When dusk gradually came, everything in the whole forest seemed to start to come alive. The various creatures living in the dark corners of Yin began to slowly crawl out of their nests, enjoying the warm but not dazzling sunshine during the dusk, while waiting for the arrival of the night feast.

Although daytime is the normal time for most creatures, some predators or filthy creatures who do not like sunlight prefer the night. Originally, Chen Kai thought that there should be only those terrifying magical creatures or high-level beasts in this forest, but the facts proved that he was wrong. Although the grass juice on his body could cover his smell, it could not cover his low-level knight-level light fighting spirit. For those dead creatures and filthy creatures climbing out of Yin Shadow, Chen Kai's aura was brighter than the lighthouse in the night.

Even hundreds of meters away, these bone creatures that crawled out of nowhere discovered Chen Kai, and then rushed out like evil dogs that smelled bones and rushed over. Chen Kai would never believe that such a rich and terrifying bone was buried under the thick humus strata under his feet. The dead magic creatures of the dead animals returned to the world in another way in this magical world. Although they could only appear at night, they brought the most terrifying disaster to all living beings at least for Chen Kai, these low-level but terrifying bone creatures were a disaster.

Perhaps for most creatures in the forest, these low-level bone creatures are nothing at all. Even the most dull-action wild bears can kill several of them with one claw. But that's because they have high levels and strong strength. These dead bones with a maximum of 40 levels do not pose much threat to them at all. However, if their target is Chen Kai, who is only level 50, then that's another matter.

Although Chen Kai's level 50th level rank number is actually equivalent to the 59th Knight Master, Chen Kai also believes that he can compare with the 59th level knight master of the Aboriginal Knight, because there is a big gap in strength and ability between the two sides. At the same time, for the monsters in the forest, no matter how powerful these skeleton creatures are, they cannot harm their bodies. Not to mention the level gap between the two sides is that the skin of the creatures themselves is enough to resist the claws of most skeleton creatures.

You should know that few of the dead bones that climbed up in the forest are human, and most of them are formed by the bones of dead animals being eroded by filthy forces. Therefore, they have almost no sharp weapons, and some of them are only innately carried minions. Even if the claws in front of them are sharp, they will never have the power in front of them after they die. At most, only sixty percent are left. The lost tendons and tendons of the disappearing muscles have caused these animal bones to lose their former strength, leaving only the most primitive bones.

So for those creatures with solid skin in the forest, these dead creatures are not dangerous at all, but they will not provoke these guys on their own initiative. The boundary between the living and the dead is very clear in this forest. Both sides will not step into each other's territory at will, unless some unlucky and ignorant guys, such as our protagonist.

When Chen Kai was escorting the sunshine in the dusk, he felt very frustrated, because he was chasing several huge wild timberwolves behind him. The huge wolf head had fangs of more than ten centimeters, and the gray skin was running, which caused a whirring sound of wind. If these wolves could become mounts, Chen Kai would definitely be very happy, because it meant that he could leave the forest quickly. Unfortunately, the other party could not become mounts, but he wanted to pounce on Chen Kai while riding him while eating him.

In order not to be ridden by several hungry wolves, and to save his life, Chen Kai almost desperately used Dou Qi to activate the Phantom Body Step to escape. The huge consumption of Dou Qi and physical strength allowed Chen Kai to continuously extend the distance between him and the timberwolves, but every time he ran a distance, he had to stop to slow down and restore the pain of the big ui muscles that were swelled by Dou Qi. If it weren't for not being able to use the Phantom Body Step to escape continuously, Chen Kai would not have been chased by those Timberwolves. This depressed mood could not be changed even if the experience of the Phantom Body Step is rising.

But when Chen Kai rushed into the forest with black humus, all the timber wolves behind him stopped and watched Chen Kai rush into the forest with thick fog. At the same time, Chen Kai, who was running wildly with his head down, did not notice that the surrounding trees seemed to have become wider, and there seemed to be too many white bones scattered on the ground.

It was not until Chen Kaichong's physical strength was a little exhausted, and the dim sunshine was almost at a loss, that Chen Kai suddenly realized that the timberwolves chasing behind him had long disappeared, and he himself was once again sad.

Looking at the thick gray and black fog that gradually rose around, Chen Kai's sweat slowly began to erect on his back. He didn't even think about it and grabbed the tree pole next to him and quickly climbed up the top of the big tree. When he climbed up the big tree, he suddenly realized that the plants here seemed to be more gray than the plants elsewhere. Although the tall canopy was still green, under this greenness was a terrifying darkness that was hard to hide.

"It seems that this is not a good place!" Chen Kai thought while stuffing food into his mouth, but even so, Chen Kai had no intention of leaving immediately. First, his physical strength and fighting spirit were on the verge of exhaustion and needed to be replenished immediately. Second, he didn't know the way out at all. Although he rushed in all the way, it was absolutely impossible to let him find the way in and then rush out. Especially when the terrifying mí fog below was getting heavier, Chen Kai would not climb down the big tree and enter the terrifying place in Yin Forest when he was hit.

However, it is precisely because of this that Chen Kai was able to save his life in this terrifying forest. If he was too brave enough to ignore the surrounding fog and directly descended to the ground below, he chose to find a way out from the ground now and probably would be surrounded by the bone creatures that climbed up on the ground. Because of his hesitation and timidity, Chen Kai escaped the fate of being surrounded by hundreds of dead creatures, but he still saw the terrifying side of the forest marked by him as the bones.

When the last ray of sunset disappeared from the ground completely, the whole forest fell into darkness in an instant. Chen Kai leaned alone on the thick branches and looked at the sky, looking forward to the appearance of the moon. To be honest, he never missed the sun or the moon so much at this time, but he couldn't take the initiative to light the torch, otherwise it would cause trouble for himself. So Chen Kai could only expect the moonlight to dispel the thicker and thicker fog around him. However, Chen Kai did not wait for the moon to rise, but instead heard the terrifying crack sound coming from the ground below.

When Chen Kai first heard this sound, he felt that he had hallucinations, because he was too familiar with the sound and could guess what the other party was. However, Chen Kai did not hear it wrong or guessed it wrong. The only thing he guessed was that the skeleton creatures that appeared below were not humans, but were all the skeletons of some dead animals in the forest.

From a wild brown bear more than three meters high to a huge timberwolve with two meters long, and the bones of the violent wild boars continued to appear below. One huge bone figure after another appeared in the dark fog, making Chen Kai's goosebumps appear continuously along with them. At the same time, what scared Chen Kai the most was that there were a large number of small animals in the forest. These small animals climbed on the branches and looked at Chen Kai fiercely through the heavy fog. He could almost see the soul fire burning in the black eye sockets of those little rabbits and mice, which was extremely happy for the blood of living beings.
