Mortal Mirror

Li Ergou also felt these differences. He nodded slightly and said, "Yes, you are absolutely right. Everyone must be more careful.

It's a pity that the smell here is complex, so even the tracking weapon, the golden-haired rat, is useless."

The other two also looked regretful.

At this moment, the sun was setting in the west, and suddenly dark clouds rolled in from the horizon. In the blink of an eye, a strong wind blew up, and before long, goose-feather-like snow fell from the sky.

The cold wind whipped up the flying goose-feather snow, and the world was a vast expanse of white.

Li Ergou and the others were dumbfounded. They didn't expect to encounter such a thing. With such heavy snow, it would be good enough if they didn't get lost, let alone find anyone.

Everyone felt depressed and helpless. The more it was like this, the more they had to hurry up and find those people.

In fact, at this moment, everyone felt unsure. After all, these people had been missing for so long, and in such a strange place, they felt that they had most likely met with misfortune.

However, since dozens of lives were at stake, they couldn't just make assumptions.

Braving the heavy snow, they continued to move forward. After advancing another few hundred meters, Zhao Si suddenly said, "Hey, what's going on? I keep feeling like something is watching us from a distance."

Li Ergou was slightly stunned. He was only focused on moving forward and hadn't really noticed this.

Qin Liu said, "Really? Are you sure it's not just your imagination?"

He looked back, but all he could see was wind and snow. There was no way he could see anything else. So he continued, "It must be your overthinking."

Zhao Si turned his head and looked around, with a puzzled look on his face. "Maybe, it might be because I'm too nervous."

Hearing this, Li Ergou still secretly became vigilant. After all, anything could happen in this desolate mountain forest.

Continuing forward, the mountain slope ahead became gentler, and the road was much easier to walk. However, it was already completely dark, and it wasn't a good idea for everyone to continue moving forward.

Li Ergou had no choice but to say, "It's already dark. Continuing to walk will probably not help us find anyone. It's a pity that we haven't seen any traces of people walking along the way. Otherwise, it would save a lot of time."

Qin Liu also said, "Damn weather. Now it's all good. Even if there were traces, they would have been buried by the wind and snow and disappeared."

Zhao Si said, "Then there's nothing we can do. Let's find a tree hole or something to shelter from the wind and snow. Otherwise, before we find anyone, the three of us will freeze to death."

Li Ergou nodded. Just as he was about to speak, the heavy snow in the sky suddenly stopped.

Even more strangely, the dark clouds also dissipated at this moment, revealing the bright moonlight. The entire mountain forest was illuminated by the white snow, and it was actually much brighter.

"Damn it, what's going on? This snow stopped too suddenly," Qin Liu muttered.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, they heard several strange croaking sounds from above. The three looked up and saw four huge birds staring down at them from the treetops.

The next moment, the four big birds flapped their wings and flew down, their huge black figures like black demons.

Li Ergou pulled out the Lengque blade from his waist, and saw him raise his knife, his eyes full of cold light.

Closer and closer, he could now see that the bird's wingspan was a full ten feet, and its thick claws were covered with shining black scales. Most terrifying of all, it had a woman's face, which was horrifying.

Li Ergou was slightly surprised, and saw him slash out with his sword. The cold blade light was like a fiery line across the night sky, and the human-faced bird immediately let out a scream.

Hot blood and feathers fell from the sky, like a rain of blood.

At the same time, Li Ergou also heard Zhao Si's scream.

He saw that a human-faced bird had torn Zhao Si's sleeve, and scratched a foot-long gash on his arm. Fortunately, he had Wulin armor to protect his body, so he was not scratched by the giant claws.

Li Ergou hurried over to rescue him, and slashed at the human-faced bird attacking him with his sword. The bird screamed strangely, and then released Zhao Si.

Qin Liu shouted, "Sir, save me."

Two human-faced birds actually grabbed Qin Liu and flew into the sky. If he was captured, Qin Liu would surely die.

Li Ergou was completely furious, and saw him move his divine sense, take out the Yulin sword, and shout, "Sword Control Technique."

The Yulin sword instantly shot out like lightning, and with a swoosh, it chopped off the head of one of the human-faced birds. The remaining human-faced bird was frightened, released Qin Liu, and quickly flew into the sky, disappearing into the moonlight in the blink of an eye.

Qin Liu fell down, terrified. He was just about to say some words of thanks to Li Ergou when he felt a chill on his neck and knew nothing.

Li Ergou looked forward in disbelief. A monster with a fox's head and a wolf's body had just bitten off Qin Liu's head. It could be seen that the fox-wolf's body was huge, more than two and a half meters tall, could walk upright, and was as fast as lightning.

It swallowed Qin Liu's head into its stomach, its eyes emitting a strange blood-red light. Then it turned its head and ran towards Zhao Si's direction.

Zhao Si said, "Damn it, so someone really ambushed us. It must be him who was tracking us."

Li Ergou didn't say much, and immediately sacrificed the Yulin sword, slashing towards the fox-wolf. Unexpectedly, this thing was extremely fast, like lightning, and even the flying sword couldn't catch up with it.

At this moment, it could be seen that the fox was getting closer and closer to Zhao Si, and then it jumped up, pouncing on Zhao Si in mid-air.

Zhao Si was not afraid at all, took off the bow behind his back, drew the bow, aimed, and shot the arrow.

A series of movements were as smooth as flowing water. This man was fond of bows and arrows, and his archery skills were extremely accurate. He was known as a hundred steps to pierce Yang.

With a buzzing sound, one of the fox-wolf's legs was pierced by the arrow.

The fox-wolf screamed and fell from mid-air. A trace of hatred flashed in its eyes, and in the blink of an eye, it ran into the woods and disappeared.

In this kind of weather, Li Ergou and Zhao Si naturally did not dare to chase easily.

Li Ergou looked at Qin Liu's body and sighed, "Alas, it's all my fault for not guarding you well."

Zhao Si said, "Sir, it's not your fault. It's just that the fox-wolf was too cunning and attacked us in the chaos. The two checked Qin Liu's body and found that his Wulin armor had been pierced with several blood holes by the human-faced bird. The blood holes even pierced into the heart.

I'm afraid that even if the fox-wolf didn't attack, he would have been seriously injured."

Li Ergou frowned and said, "Damn it, what happened in this forest? Why are things here so abnormal? This thing's claws are too sharp, and even the Wulin armor can't withstand its claws."

Zhao Si showed a frightened expression and said, "Sir, do you think those people might really have…"

Li Ergou sighed and said, "It's very possible, but we can't give up. Let's be careful. I'll notify the other two teams about the situation here now, and hope nothing happens."

He took out the Cui flute and cast a magic spell on it. The Cui flute was instantly shrouded in a faint light.
