In order to find a way out, we decided to take a good look at this underground cave.
I saw many stalactites protruding from the rock wall, so I volunteered to climb up with my bare hands and look for a way out at the top of the cave.
When I was almost at the top, I realized that I couldn't see anything because of the fog surrounding me.
"Is there any situation?" Dafei saw that I didn't speak for a long time and shouted worriedly.
"There's fur."
I replied. Seeing that there wasn't even a mouse hole nearby, I slowly crawled down a distance. Only when the surrounding fog was gone did I lower my head to look at the three people who were the size of ants. They almost made me fall. This was too high.
At this moment, I could vaguely see the entire cave. My mother, this was a completely different feeling from when I first came in. It was as if I was in a fairyland.
The cave was unimaginably large. It was impossible to see it clearly from afar. Other than the many large and small pools around the rock wall, two-thirds of the cave was occupied by the forest.
There was a small hill in the middle of the cave, and there were faint human buildings. As for the rest, I really can't describe it with words. I can only say that it's too shocking.
I had a good understanding of the environment here. I carefully moved down bit by bit. Just as I was about to sigh about how it was easy to go up the mountain but difficult to go down, I heard a "whoosh" sound coming from the fog above my head, as if a bird was flapping its wings.
Although this series of experiences had already made my nerves jump to the extreme, it was inevitable that I would hallucinate. But at the same time, I also believed that my ears had not heard wrongly. I turned around and looked around, but I didn't find any flying birds or anything like that.
I thought that I should hurry up and climb down. There might be some monsters in such an isolated place. Just as he took two steps down, a gust of air suddenly came from behind him. At the same time, a few gunshots came from below. Immediately after, two "gaga" sounds rang out in my ears, causing me to tremble.
I subconsciously turned around and saw a huge bird falling from my back. It was probably when this giant bird was about to attack me that it was shot by Dafei below, which saved my life.
"Oh my god!"
At this moment, there were three similar giant birds circling not far from me. These giant birds were pitch black and looked like condors. They had extremely long necks, sharp beaks, and wingspans of at least five meters.
"Come down quickly. Don't be afraid. I'll cover you.”Dafei shouted from below.
I said to myself,"Don't be afraid? It's easy for you to say, you try."He fired a few shots, but none of them hit.
The intelligence of these giant birds seemed to be quite high. After the first one was killed by Dafei, they hid in the fog and used the fog they fanned to try to pounce on me. Since we couldn't see their whereabouts, Dafei and I had to fire one or two shots from time to time to disperse the strange birds that approached me.
Following the gunshot, several similar giant birds flew over from afar, eyeing me covetously. If it wasn't for Dafei covering me below, I would rather fall to my death than become a bird.
I kept firing. I calculated in my heart. Not good, there was only one Glorious Bomb left. Right now, they could only rely on Dafei to cover them.
However, it was obvious that Dafei alone was not enough to deal with these strange birds. I was really too much. In order to make it easier to climb, I didn't even bring a few extra magazines. I really deserved it.
I cursed myself for being retarded as I quickly escaped downwards. In order to increase my speed, I practically relied on my hands to hang the stalactite as I jumped down. It didn't take me much effort to cover quite a distance. I comforted myself that as long as I could hold on a little longer, I would be safe.
Halfway through, the gunshots suddenly stopped. Oh my god, please don't tell me you're out of bullets. However, I couldn't divert my attention to see what was happening below. My arms were starting to ache, and I had to land before I ran out of strength.
Perhaps I used too much strength, but when I grabbed a stalactite that wasn't too thick, I actually broke it by force. My body fell rapidly like a bullet. As I was falling down while lying flat, I didn't have time to grab the rock wall. It seemed that I was going to be glorious this time.
The wind whistled by my ears. I unconsciously closed my eyes, but my body suddenly stopped in the air. Then, he was dragged up and down by a huge force. His right arm was almost dislocated as if it was being held tightly by someone.
I quickly opened my eyes. As expected, I was caught by the strange bird. Before I could react, its other claw grabbed my left shoulder in an instant. At the same time, its thick neck bent down and pecked at my head. Looking at its iron hook-like sharp beak, wouldn't it be glorious if it was pecked?
Out of my survival instinct, I can only take a gamble. When the sharp mouth was about to get close, I fired a shot without hesitation.
ga
The strange bird let out a wail and loosened its grip on me. I was afraid of falling down, so I didn't care much. I quickly grabbed its claws and hung in the air like a kite.
A warm feeling flowed down from the top of his head. He looked up and said, The strange bird's chest was bleeding profusely, and the strength of its wings was getting weaker and weaker. In addition, there was still a person hanging there. Soon, he could not bear it anymore and slowly slid down.
Just as the strange bird was about to fall to the ground, I quickly let go and landed on a tree. Fortunately, the tree was lush and the strange bird didn't fall too fast, so I didn't die.
I slowly climbed down from the tree. I lay on the ground and panted heavily. In just a few seconds, I had walked through the gates of hell again.
He turned to look at the strange bird not far away. Its pitch-black feathers had lost their luster and it was already dead. I thought to myself,'This is called' losing one's life'. Fortunately, I didn't hit your vital points and let you struggle for a while. Otherwise, I would also be in danger.
After lying down for two to three minutes, I shook my numb hands and simply treated my scratched shoulders. Then, unable to resist my curiosity, I walked over and kicked the strange bird's corpse twice. I tried my best to recall all the files I had seen before, as well as all kinds of ancient stories about gods and monsters. It seemed that there was such a huge strange bird, but I couldn't remember it for a while.
Forget it, I'll ask Mozzie and Dafei later. Thinking of the three of them, I was furious. At the same time, I was worried. They definitely won't leave me alone. Something must have happened.
"Mosquito, mosquito, if you're still alive, fart!"
I shouted a few times. From what I saw on the cliff, I shouldn't be too far away from them. Hence, he found a wooden stick to defend himself and walked in their direction.
About four to five minutes later, there were some sounds ahead. A familiar voice asked softly,"Rat?" I immediately let out a sigh of relief and put down the wooden stick I was holding high.
Li Juan helped Mozzie to walk in front of me, but Dafei was nowhere to be seen. After asking, I found out that they had indeed encountered a similar danger as me.
At that time, Dafei was fully focused on protecting me while Mozzie was paying close attention to the surroundings, worried that there might be other dangers. Originally, this division of labor was very safe and reasonable, but it was also unlucky. They did not want to encounter a silent killer that had been extinct for tens of thousands of years. White-tailed Leopard Cat.
White-tailed Leopard Cats were the only ones in the Leopard Cat family that lived in groups. They were also the largest, with an average length of one meter. They were good at hunting in groups and had a strict hierarchy. Other than their heads, their white tails were their most obvious symbol.
Although Mozzie was already very careful at that time, the White-tailed Leopard Cat walked silently. Its camouflage skills were superb, and its sprint speed was even faster than a cheetah. By the time he realized it, Da Fei had already been pounced on by a White-tailed Leopard Cat.
Fortunately, Da Fei's reaction was not slow. He rolled a few times on the ground and escaped the bite of the White-tailed Leopard Cat. He raised his gun and shot it. However, four or five white-tailed panther-cats appeared at the same time and pounced on Da Fei. One of them bit the spear in Da Fei's hand tightly. It was so strong that it forcefully pulled the spear out of Da Fei's hand.
Mozzie wanted to go forward and help, but she could not exert any strength at all. In this situation, shooting would accidentally injure Dafei. However, Da Fei was still an elite of the Special Case Investigation Unit, so he did not panic. He quickly pulled out the dagger at his waist and instantly cut the neck of a White-tailed Leopard Cat. Then, he rolled on the ground and ran into the forest.
Seeing that Da Fei was not running for his life, but retreating while fighting, Mosquito knew that this was not only a combat technique against animals, but also to lure them away. Only in this way would the injured mosquitoes and Li Juan be relatively safe. Otherwise, if these White-tailed Leopard Cats attacked the mosquitoes and Li Juan instead, the consequences would be unimaginable.
At that time, Mosquito saw me and the strange bird falling down. After analyzing the situation of Dafei and me, she decisively rushed over with Li Juan to help me.
Mozzie saw that I was fine. She was glad, but she was also very worried for Dafei. I didn't have time to let Li Juan check on my injuries. After taking a gun from her hand, the three of us quickly walked in the direction of Dafei.
"Dafei doesn't have a gun on him. Will he be fine?”I asked Mozzie worriedly.
Mosquito shook his head with certainty and said,""Since Dafei lured them away, he must be confident. Besides, it's not like you don't know that assault rifles are useless against these close-range attacking animals.”
At critical moments, mosquitoes are always more patient than me. Looking at Li Juan's infatuated face, I feel so embarrassed. I've worked for nothing these past few years. He quickly changed the topic and said to Li Juan,"By the way, beauty, do you know what those strange birds I encountered just now were?”
Li Juan nodded. She really knew that there was a legend in the Southern Border that was almost forgotten: A long time ago, there was a sorcerer who committed many evil deeds. He was tied to a mountain by the Great Sorcerer and starved to death. His body was eaten clean by the condor. He was unwilling, so his soul attached itself to the condor's body and turned into a huge strange bird.
Because it had starved to death when it was alive, it could never eat enough. Moreover, it only ate meat, and its mouth was always shouting "quack quack". Coincidentally, in some places in the south," Gaga " meant meat, so people called this strange bird " Gaga."
After hearing what Li Juan said, I remembered that there was a prehistoric giant eagle recorded in the "Mystical Affairs Archives": a long-stalked sharp-beaked eagle. However, he didn't know that it had the name "Gaga". He couldn't help but laugh and say,"That's quite an image. After your own meat was eaten, you want to eat other people's meat all day long. But then again, this damn place is just like the tomb raiding novels.”
" The mystery of nature is far beyond our imagination," Mosquito said, panting heavily." Humans have only existed for a few million years. There are countless unknown things that we don't know.”
"That's why we're needed.”I raised my eyebrows at Li Juan, scaring her into lowering her head.
I thought that this girl was still cold and aloof before, but now she was like a kitten. I couldn't be bothered with her, so I called out a few times,"Dafei." "Here it is" came from not far away. We were overjoyed and quickened our pace.
When he saw Dafei again, there were several claw marks on his body, and a large piece of his swimsuit was torn off his shoulder. Fortunately, it was only a superficial wound.
Dafei walked over and asked me if I was okay. I shook my head and told him what I saw on the cliff just now. After some discussion, we decided to go to the building on the hill to look for clues.
"Why didn't we encounter those strange things when we first came in?”I asked Dafei, who was walking at the front.
Dafei kept looking left and right, paying attention to everything around him. He said,"Animals are actually similar to humans. They don't dare to act rashly against unknown things. Perhaps they have been eyeing us since we came in and have been looking for an opportunity to attack. You don't even have such experience. How did you become a mystic police officer in the first place?”
I was so embarrassed that I didn't know what to say. I really hoped that Mosquito could smooth things over. However, he was in the middle with Li Juan supporting him. He was so happy that I shook my head and silently followed behind him.
The further we walked, the more dense the vegetation became. We were even more careful, afraid that something strange would run out.
" Wait." Dafei suddenly raised his left hand to signal us to stop. I was so scared that I quickly raised my gun and prepared to shoot. However, I didn't notice that Dafei had any intention of attacking.
"What's wrong?" I asked. Leader?"
"Did you guys notice?" Dafei frowned. There were no traces of animals in this forest.”
