Path of light

Chapter 110 111. Rescue Team

In the hillside woodland covered with weeds and vines, the two rangers climbed towards the top of the mountain one after the other.

Because the weeds in front of them were too dense and mixed with thorny tree vines, the ranger walking in front could only draw a machete to cut off the vines in front of him.

"The grass and vines on this hillside have almost filled the forest. Are you sure he will get to the top of this jungle?" A ranger with a mustache on his chin complained to his companions.

"Didn't you just see that too? Where do you think those two flares were shot into the sky?"

Both of them were a little depressed. After receiving such a troublesome mission, they might be completely left behind by the adventure group...

This kind of thing has not happened once or twice. Companions have been abandoned on Queen Egwene Island before.

If the two of them were left in this jungle this time, if they missed the time to board the ship, they might never be able to return to Roland Continent in their lifetime.

The mustachioed ranger narrowed his eyes and whispered:

"Well, the location judged based on the visual judgment is indeed here. In such dense grass, it will be difficult for us to find him wherever he hides in the grass!"

The companion walked in front holding a machete in his hand, waving his arm to cut off a vine.

The rattan was originally very tight, but after it was cut, it immediately shrank back to both sides.

The companion bent down nimbly and avoided the swinging cane.

The Mustache Ranger was not so lucky. He was slightly distracted, and by the time he saw the drawn cane, it was already too late to hide.

He could only lower his head and turn his face away, and the cane whipped his shoulder violently, leaving several deep scratches on his leather armor.

His shoulder was also whipped so badly that it hurt...

After the Mustache Ranger stood firm, he immediately followed him. He didn't have the eyes to do this, so he couldn't rely on others for this kind of thing.

The companion turned back and smiled apologetically at the Mustache Ranger. At most, he didn't have time to issue a warning.

"Let's go take a look. If we really can't find it, we have to run back to the ship for any reason, otherwise we will really be thrown into the Elf Continent..."

The mustachioed ranger raised his head and looked at the dense jungle and said, "Maybe the goddess of luck will be on our side!"

His companion suddenly accelerated in front. He only cut down the tree vines blocking the road and forced his way through the grass with his legs.

"Hurry up and rush over. There are too many thorns here. I feel like the leather armor on my body is going to be scratched..."

The Mustache Ranger quickly followed.

The two of them rushed to the top of the mountain, both exhausted.

However, their eyes were never idle, and they kept scanning the surrounding jungle, trying to find some clues.

A bit beyond their expectations, the top of the mountain was also covered with a vast forest, which made their search range virtually larger.

…

Roy squatted on the tree crown, his legs were a little numb, so he could only change his position.

To be honest, he had been squatting in the tree for more than an hour...

After so long, no response was received from the rescue team. Roy thought that maybe the rescue team failed to look at the two flares in front.

He lowered his head and touched the remaining two flares in his satchel with his hand. The brown paper packaging was still there.

There were only two flares left. If they were all used up at once, when the rescue team arrived, Roy would have no choice but to jump to the treetop and wave to them if he wanted to pick them up.

He was thinking...should he release another magic flare?

The adventure group at the second check-in point has probably sent people to search for them.

If he releases another signal bomb, his hiding position will be completely exposed.

Just when Roy was debating whether to release another flare, two rangers suddenly appeared in the woods below him.

The two rangers in leather armor, one behind the other, were searching everywhere.

A ranger suddenly raised his head and looked towards the tree crown. Roy immediately squatted motionless among the dense branches and leaves. Sure enough, they did not see Roy hiding in the tree.

They are already very alert...

But Roy was hiding on the top of the tree, and they happened to be standing under the tree. When they looked up at the top of the tree, there would be a ray of sunlight shining through the gaps in the leaves, which was very dazzling.

Roy waited for the two rangers to disperse under the tree before taking a long breath. Just as he was about to relax his vigilance, he saw one of the remaining rangers planning to climb the thickest tree.

Roy fired the flare from the top of that tree. As long as he climbed to the crown of the tree, he could find some of the crown branches and leaves that Roy had chopped off.

Roy, who was hiding in the crown of a nearby tree, didn't dare to move at all, for fear of being discovered by the two rangers if he moved too much.

…

The Mustache Ranger climbed up a big tree, and when he was halfway up, he saw some new marks on the tree.

He immediately became energetic and called under the tree: "Come here quickly, I found a clue... He may be hiding here to launch signal bombs..."

The companion who was searching for clues under the tree immediately ran over, stood under the tree and raised his head and asked, "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure I've seen some of the branches and leaves on the top of the tree cut off... He should be in this area, let's look carefully!"

The Mustache Ranger climbed to the top of the tree crown and saw a bundle of branches and leaves hanging on the branches.

He looked around and didn't find Roy hiding in a neighboring tree.

…

Roy broke into a cold sweat...

He only listened to the two human rangers chattering, but he didn't understand a word of the specific words.

The mustachioed ranger climbing on the treetop looked around habitually.

Just when he was about to look at the tree where Roy was hiding, two silver Pegasus appeared in the sky very quickly, with two sword dancers wearing silver armor sitting on the horses.

The Mustache Ranger was so frightened that he immediately retracted his head into the bushes, and then quickly slipped down from the tree.

He said to his companions: "Run quickly, I see the elf warriors of the Silver Pegasus Legion coming..."

The companion was also shocked: "How could it be so fast!"

The two of them retreated while talking.

At this time, Roy also saw the elf warriors wandering in the sky. He was worried that he would be discovered by the two rangers just now. Unexpectedly, the elf warriors from the rescue team had already flown over in the blink of an eye.

Roy quickly released a magic flare again.

A huge fire exploded in the air, and the elf warrior riding the silver Pegasus circled in a circle and immediately flew towards Roy's hiding place...

After the two Silver Pegasus elf warriors flew closer, they saw Roy standing on the canopy of the tree waving vigorously.

However, the trees here were dense with leaves, and the two elf warriors had no way to land. They could only let the Silver Pegasus get as close to Roy as possible.

They found that the person standing on the canopy of the tree was actually a young human. They immediately frowned and yelled at Roy: "What's going on? Are you sending a distress signal? Are you trapped in the tree?"

The elf warrior quickly asked three questions to express his strong dissatisfaction...
