People are in Douluo, start binding traveling frogs

Chapter 24 Hunting the Giant Elephant

After a day and a night of marching, everyone finally came to this Hunting Soul Forest on the edge of the Star Luo Empire.

Almost two-thirds of the Douluo Continent is covered by various forests.

The common people living on the edge of the forest are often harassed by various spirit beasts that come out of the forest, and their lives are miserable.

They also thought about relocation, but the cost of relocation was simply beyond the affordability of these ordinary people.

Although Wuhundian has communicated with the two empires many times, it is hoped that they will send troops to station at the edge of each spirit beast forest to protect the interests of the surrounding people.

But the royal families of Tiandou Empire and Star Luo Empire have always been indifferent, they only pay attention to the interests of nobles and clans, they don't care about the life and death of these common people.

In desperation, Wuhundian could only send soul masters to the edge of the few hunting forests closest to human settlements, to protect the people in these places from the intrusion of spirit beasts.

Everyone bought some supplies in a village closest to the edge of the Hunting Forest.

The people in several nearby villages rely on the soul masters who come to hunt soul beasts in the soul hunting forest to survive.

Although the harvest is quite rich, it is always accompanied by risks.

Encountering those arrogant and domineering noble soul masters, sometimes not only can't make money, but they may even risk their own lives.

Li Ming fostered the carriage in a commoner's house, and took Ye Huang and others on foot to the entrance of the Hunting Soul Forest a few hundred meters away.

When it was time to enter, Ye Huang found that not only soul masters who hunted soul beasts lined up to enter the soul hunting forest, but also many ordinary people without soul power.

"Teacher, what are these ordinary people doing in the Hunting Forest? Aren't they afraid of death?"

"Eat the mountains by the mountains, and eat the sea by the sea. Although this hunting forest is dangerous, there are all kinds of delicious mountain delicacies and fungi growing in it."

"These delicacies are the favorites of the soul masters of the empire. For the rich profits, many ordinary people go to the hunting forest to collect them."

Sure enough, when Ye Huang and others walked to the entrance, they saw a few wounded ordinary people at the exit, and sold the mountain treasures they collected to the grocery merchants who came to receive the goods.

The soul master guarding the door didn't ask any questions about these ordinary people who came in and out.

They are only responsible for the spirit beasts not coming out of the forest to intrude on the lives of the people. It is their own choice whether the people who enter the forest live or die, and have nothing to do with them.

When he came to the entrance, Li Ming put five Gintama coins into the cash box at the entrance.

Ordinary people can enter and leave freely, but soul masters who enter the hunting forest must pay a fee of one silver soul coin each.

The money is used to maintain the daily expenses of these guardian soul masters, hire the surrounding people to help patrol and build fences in the hunting forest.

A silver soul coin is a lot for ordinary people, but for these soul masters, it is not even the price of a meal, they don't care at all.

The big trees in the entire Soul Hunting Forest are so dense that they almost block most of the sunlight entering the forest.

When Li Ming led the four of them into the Hunting Soul Forest, the four of them suddenly had a feeling of darkness.

"Light the torches."

According to Li Ming's instructions, everyone lit the torches and walked towards the pre-planned route.

"Teacher, didn't you try not to get angry in the Hunting Forest?"

Hu Yanzan, who entered the Hunting Forest for the first time, was like a curious baby.

"In principle, you can't get angry when you enter the Hunting Soul Forest, so as not to attract the attention of other spirit beasts."

"But the soul beasts in the Soul Hunting Forest we came to today are only about 5000 years old, and I can't hurt you at all."

Being able to make good friends with these geniuses is of great benefit to Li Ming, so he knows everything about Hu Yanzan's questions, and he has nothing to say.

As the few people went deeper, the forest became lively. At night, all kinds of spirit beasts came out to move around, and all kinds of cries kept coming and going.

But when a few people walked inside again, the shouts around them suddenly decreased a lot.

Several people even felt regular vibrations coming from under their feet from time to time.

"Extinguish the torch in your hand."

Hearing Li Ming's words, everyone quickly extinguished the torches in their hands, and looked forward along the gap between the leaves.

I saw an elephant with a height of about three meters and a khaki glow lying on the ground to rest.

And the vibration under their feet was caused by the breath from the giant elephant's mouth.

Li Mingzhao immediately summoned his spirit grizzly, six spirit rings, one white, two yellow, two purple, and one black, hovered around his body.

When Li Ming summoned the martial soul, Ye Huang and others also summoned their own martial soul one after another.

"My mission is to protect your safety, now you can enter this area to hunt giant elephants."

Speaking of which, Li Ming directly hid his figure in the dense bushes, watched every move of the four of them, and was ready to make a move at any time.

The second child, the third child, please protect the safety of the boss, let me first weigh how many catties this giant elephant weighs.

You are there to support.

Speaking of Ye Huang's run-up a few steps, with a sudden force on his feet, his body soared into the air, his feet alternately stepped on the surrounding towering tree trunks, and rushed towards the sleeping giant elephant.

Although the giant elephant is lying down and sleeping, its vigilance is also very high. Don't look at it snoring, but if there is any disturbance around it, it will be fed back to the ears by the giant elephant's regular breathing vibration.

When it saw the short Ye Huang intruding into its territory, it stood up directly, let out a howl, and stabbed Ye Huang with the sharp ivory like a scimitar.

Seeing the stabbing ivory, Ye Huang didn't panic, nor did he have the slightest intention to dodge.

I saw one side of his body grabbing its giant tusk at the moment when the giant elephant was exhausted.With a vigorous flick of his hands, he turned over and jumped directly onto the back of the giant elephant.

"drink!"

Ye Huang let out a loud shout, and hammered the giant elephant's back with his fist.

"Boom!" came a sound.

Ye Huang was so shaken by the counter-shock force of this punch that he almost fell off his back.

"What a powerful defense."

Ye Huang's eyes were fixed. With his current strong physique, this punch has at least a thousand catties of strength, but it only left a light white mark on the back of the giant elephant.

The giant elephant saw that his ivory not only didn't hurt the little bug in front of him, but also allowed him to take the opportunity to climb up on his back, punched himself, and instantly became angry.

"Roar."

A roar came out of its mouth, and its thick elephant trunk swept towards Ye Huang on its back with a piercing whistling sound.

Seeing the thick elephant trunk sweeping towards Ye Huang, Xu Xin, who had already been prepared by the side, rushed to help Ye Huang.

"The first soul skill, Nebula Chain."

The jewel on the star crown of Xu Xin's Wuhun star lit up, and a chain made of starlight was quickly wrapped around the elephant's trunk.
