Chapter 2349 Bait (Two Chapters in One)

"Huh..."

A panting voice sounded in the bushes, and a figure walked out.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead raised his hand, picked off some grass leaves on his body, and threw them on the ground.

Just now, he was walking in the bushes and encountered many thorny plants, but it took a lot of effort to successfully pass through.

From a distance, the mountain under his feet was not high, but when he got closer, his actual height was more than two thousand meters.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead is now close to the top of the mountain, panting with fatigue.

He did not stop to rest immediately, but insisted on continuing to move towards the top of the mountain.

After a while, on the top of the mountain, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead held a big tree with his left hand and looked into the distance.

"That's it."

"Fortunately, that area was not affected by the flood, otherwise today's trip would be in vain."

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the place where the spirit stone mine was found, muttered to himself, and then he sat down on the spot and began to recover his strength.

"Huh..."

The wind blew from time to time on the top of the mountain, and it was very cool on the body.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead rested for a while and recovered some of his strength. Then he did not continue to rest. He got up from the ground and began to look for the direction to go down the mountain.

Although it was very hard to go up the mountain, it was more troublesome to go down the mountain.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead observed for a few seconds, and then found a place with a not too steep slope to start going down the mountain.

A few minutes later, a large number of vines appeared in front of him. This situation was also encountered by the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead when he went up the mountain before.

"Crack."

Injecting spiritual energy into the weapon, every time the hand raised the knife and fell, a large number of vines were cut off.

When passing through the area full of vines, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead clearly felt that something was staring at him.

"Is it a strange beast?"

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead expanded his mental perception and explored it. He did not find any spiritual energy fluctuations, which made him feel relieved.

If an ordinary beast were to target him, it would not pose a threat to him.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak..."

Just as the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was about to leave the area covered with vines, a subtle cry sounded from the left front.

It is very normal for insects to chirp in a place full of weeds.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead is experienced and did not make any unusual moves, but kept walking forward at the same speed.

"Huh..."

A gust of wind blew, and the surrounding flowers, plants and trees swayed gently. At this time, something flew up from the bushes in the left front.

"Squeak..."

It was an insect. A bug the size of a football flew out of the bushes, opened its mouth and made a sharp cry, flapped its wings quickly, and flew towards the head of the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.

"Hum."

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was always alert, so he reacted very quickly. He waved his right hand at the first time, and the sharp spiritual weapon sword immediately shot out a sword energy.

"Swish."

"Squeak?"

I never expected the target to react so quickly and shoot out sword energy that was difficult for it to resist. They collided with each other and then split in the middle.

"Hua La."

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead killed the insect with a sword. Looking at the body that was split in two, his eyes fell on the white sticky substance, and he felt sick.

But to be honest, although this insect was killed, its body was still able to move. Its vitality was quite tenacious, much stronger than some of the insects that the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead had encountered before.

Unfortunately, the body was severely injured. Even if the vitality was tenacious, it could only delay the time of death.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead did not leave immediately. He stared at the insect whose body was cut open for more than a minute until the other party was completely dead, and then he left.

A moment later.

At the foot of the mountain, a figure covered with leaves came out of the woods.

This time, it took more time to go down the mountain than to go up the mountain before. When the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead came to the foot of the mountain, he looked up at the sun in the sky and muttered to himself.

"I have to hurry up next."

…………

The sky was dim, and the sunset in the sky slowly descended to the horizon.

In the pig-headed camp, the handsome pig-headed logistics captain was busy in the room.

After lunch at noon, he began to make pills in the room.

After a busy afternoon, the handsome pig-headed logistics captain made bottles of healing pills, which were now packed in small porcelain bottles.

All the materials on hand were used up. If you want to make medicines again, you have to go outside to find materials.

The handsome pig-headed logistics captain looked at the small porcelain bottles and nodded slightly. He was quite satisfied with the results of his work today, but the medicines in front of him were still not enough, and he had to prepare more for emergencies.

"How was your harvest today?"

"Not bad, how about yours?"

"It's just so-so. Compared with yesterday, the harvest is one-third less."

"Let me see."

"Look at this mushroom I picked today. It's very delicious when used to make soup."

A voice came from outside the room. The handsome pig-headed logistics captain knew that his men had returned.

He quickly cleaned up the table, then got up and went outside the room.

"Captain."

The pig-headed soldiers saw the handsome pig-headed logistics captain and greeted him.

"Everyone has worked hard."

"Fortunately, I didn't feel tired today."

"Everyone put the things in the warehouse, wash your hands, and go to the cafeteria to get some snacks." The handsome pig-headed logistics captain said with a smile.

"Are there snacks?" The pig-headed soldiers were very surprised to hear this.

"I made some cakes, not much, and everyone can share a little." The handsome pig-headed logistics captain said.

It is difficult to find the ingredients for making snacks here, so the pig-headed warriors were very happy to hear that there were snacks to eat, and then they quickly took the things in the basket to the warehouse and put them away. After washing their hands, they quickly ran towards the canteen.

After a while, a series of exclamations came from the direction of the canteen, and the pig-headed warriors praised the simple snacks in their hands.

The handsome pig-headed logistics captain saw that his men were very satisfied, and couldn't help but smile, then looked up at the sun that was about to disappear in the distance.

The golden sunset dyed the sky red, and in another hour, the sun would set.

"He should be able to come back before the sun sets today!" The handsome pig-headed logistics captain looked at the sun that was about to set in the sky and thought to himself.

…………

In the forest, there was a team moving forward quickly, a total of five people.

The leader was a middle-aged man, about 40 years old, 1.8 meters tall, wearing a green camouflage uniform.

"Captain, are we almost there?" A young man wearing glasses asked.

"It's almost there." The middle-aged man replied.

The group kept running in the woods in an orderly manner.

Although the terrain was rugged, these people were not affected by their own strong strength.

After more than ten minutes, the reconnaissance team stopped.

There was a small river in front of them, and the river was not very wide. There was also a lake next to the river, covering an area of ​​more than 100 acres.

The sun fell on the lake, sparkling, and occasionally some birds flew over the lake.

The beautiful scenery in front of them made people feel very comfortable, but for the five investigators who came here, this lake was very dangerous, and they had no interest in enjoying the scenery.

"Lead it out." The middle-aged man said to his colleagues.

"Yes." The young man with glasses nodded, then left the team, left the woods, and approached the lake in the distance.

As usual, part of the river water flowed into the lake, and part flowed like other places.

The young man with glasses jumped up and easily jumped from one side of the river to the other. After landing, he mobilized the spiritual energy in his body.

"Buzz..."

Invisible energy waves spread over the investigator, and then a light golden light appeared on his hand.

"Get up."

The young man with glasses muttered something, and then pointed his left hand at a two-meter-high boulder in front of him.

The telekinesis quickly wrapped around the boulder in front of him, and then, under the gaze of everyone, the boulder flew up.

"Go."

The young man with glasses had a thought in his mind, and the flying boulder immediately shot out like a cannonball and hit the lake not far away.

"Boom."

The moment the boulder hit the lake, it made a loud roar, and a lot of water splashed around.

The lake water surged onto the shore, and some plants on the lakeshore were beaten by the lake water, some were broken, and some bent over, looking very embarrassed.

The originally beautiful scenery was instantly destroyed because of the boulder thrown by the investigator.

Waves spread, and the strange beasts living in the lake were awakened.

"Splash, splash, splash..."

The waves were surging, as if the lake was boiling, and bubbles kept bursting.

A huge beast slowly emerged from the water. It was a beast that looked like a buffalo, but it had scales on its body and two pairs of eyes.

"Roar..."

After the strange beast emerged from the water, it stared at the investigator on the lakeshore with four eyes and roared angrily.

A careful observation would reveal that the beast was injured. The reason why he was injured was that he had a conflict with the investigator not long ago, and then he ran away.

"You are the one who attacked our transport team a few days ago! Come up and die quickly." The investigator with glasses provoked.

That's right, the reason why the beast was injured was because it had a conflict with the investigator, and the reason for the conflict was that the beast attacked the transport team.

At that time, it ran away, and after the incident was reported, the investigator immediately sent a team to deal with the beast to prevent the convoy on the transport route from being attacked again.

"Roar..."

The beast in the water remembered the battle with the investigator not long ago and was still a little afraid, but when he saw that there was only one enemy, he became brave again, roared, and then swam towards the shore.

The original investigator wearing glasses took the bait and slowly retreated.

When the beast came ashore, it immediately launched an attack. Its limbs were very strong, and when it ran, the ground would shake.

"Bang."

The sharp horns collided with the weapon, and the huge force was transmitted back, knocking the investigator away.

"Roar..."

The beast was very excited, thinking that he could take revenge today, so he chased the investigator who was knocked away and prepared to continue his fierce attack.

"Go." A steady voice sounded in the woods, followed by four figures jumping out of the woods, quickly forming a circle to surround the beast.

"Roar..."

The beast, who was originally full of confidence, was stunned by the scene in front of him, and then trembled with fear.

"Do it." The middle-aged man gave an order, and the investigators immediately surrounded him.

"Roar..." The beast roared desperately. He could defeat the investigator one-on-one, but his hope was slim in a one-on-five situation.

After a while, the battle stopped, and the beast fell to the ground, without a breath of life.

"Done."

"This beast has thick skin and flesh. I just spent a lot of effort to open a hole in its head."

"It's getting late. Let's go back quickly!"

"We really have to go back quickly, otherwise we may encounter some trouble on the way back when the sun sets."

Several investigators completed the task and began to return.

…………

"Swish... ..."

The breeze blew, and the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead ran quickly in the woods. At this moment, his face was full of happy smiles.

The sun in the sky was about to disappear, and it was still several kilometers away from the camp.

If it was a few days ago, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead would definitely complain about the trouble caused by the beast before, which made him unable to go home before the sun set.

However, today he would not have such complaints, but thank the beast that caused him trouble.

In the pig-headed camp, the handsome pig-headed logistics captain stood at the door and looked into the distance. The sun in the sky was only the last ray of afterglow, and it would disappear completely soon.

Because the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was trapped outside for two days not long ago. If he didn't come back on time today, people would worry that the same thing would happen again.

"I'm back."

A familiar voice sounded in the distance, and the handsome pig-headed logistics captain raised his head and looked into the distance.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead appeared behind a big tree with a smile on his face. Because of the obstruction of the leaves, his appearance could not be seen clearly.

Now he is close to the camp, and his current state can be clearly seen at once.
