Ye An

The merchant city sells almost everything, from exotic beasts to wanderers, from mutated plants to rare metals, there are only unexpected things that can't be found on merchant ships.

The most valuable among them will always be rare beasts.

The reason why human beings can become stronger day by day, build cities in a harsh environment, and climb from the bottom of the food chain to the top after the catastrophe, has a lot to do with the energy provided by exotic animal meat.

The merchant city has always been well-informed, and Qiluo has heard more than once that there is a good thing hidden on the isolated island, which is an extremely rare mutant python.It's just that the news has spread widely, but very few people can confirm that they have seen it with their own eyes.

There might be Hunter City, but because of the relationship between the two cities, Qi Luo is not willing to send someone to find out.

The landform of the isolated island changed suddenly, and it was obvious that there was a mystery hidden in it. Qi Luo wanted to take a look no matter what.

The team boarded the stone platform half inserted in the water, and frightened the water birds that nested near the stone platform.

The crew members were greedy by nature, and when Qiluo wasn't paying attention, they quickly grabbed a few chicks and eggs and stuffed them into their pockets.

Waterfowls are fierce in nature, and naturally they refused to give up when they found their nests destroyed.The sharp beak pecked at the top of the crew's head, eyeballs and limbs, leaving clear bloody mouths.

Flesh was torn, eyes were pecked open, bright red blood flowed down the cheeks, the crew screamed, ran around like headless flies, couldn't see where they were going, accidentally crushed the eggs on the ground, more waterfowls rushed up, and the crows Pressure is like a black cloud.The crew members waved their long knives but couldn't even touch the wings of waterfowl, and soon fell to the ground covered by birds.

When the waterfowl dispersed, only broken skeletons and bloodstains remained on the ground. The people who were besieged died long ago, and even a complete skeleton could not be found.

During the whole process, Qi Luo always watched with cold eyes.In her opinion, these people did not obey orders, and it was entirely their own fault.

The water bird tore open the bag containing the chick and found that the neck of the chick had been cut off. It immediately wailed and rushed towards the rest of the crew.

Facing the oncoming flock of birds, Qi Luo stretched out his long bow, and the shimmering arrows roared into the air, and the waterfowls shot fell one after another, and were ignited by flames midway, turning into balls of dazzling fireballs.

The flock of birds was frightened and did not dare to move forward. They could only hover in the air with their wings fluttering, making piercing calls continuously.

Holding a longbow, Qi Luo glanced at everyone, and said coldly: "What are you looking at, waiting to die?!"

Only then did everyone wake up like a dream, and took out the bows and crossbows they carried on their backs one after another. The arrows flew out like rain, and before all the birds were shot down, they finally opened a passage. A dense forest, avoiding the pursuit of birds.

The waterfowl seemed to be afraid of something. After the team entered the dense forest, they croaked unwillingly and turned back.

The team of more than 300 people lost double digits when they first landed on the island. Not only was the flock of birds fierce, but also everyone was used to the life on board and slackened unconsciously.

"Be careful." Qi Luo glanced at the crowd, "No one will collect your body when you die here."

The crew complained in their hearts, but they dared not open their mouths, so they could only cheer up and follow behind Qi Luo.They cannot understand the point of chasing after an existence that cannot be proven.Not to mention the delay of the fleet, but now the loss of life.Although it's nothing to die a few people, the dissatisfaction in my heart still exists.

Having no time to pay attention to everyone's thoughts, Qi Luo ordered to move on.

Before the team got out of the dense forest, they encountered a flock of birds returning from hunting.

The mutated birds on the island have their own territories, and they do not interfere with each other, which is why the waterfowl stop in front of the dense forest.

The crew were regarded as intruders, and the flock of birds threw away the mutated fish they had caught. The frequency of their wings vibrating instantly increased, creating a whirlwind in the forest.Then it fell from the sky like a small cannonball, with its wings folded by its sides, with its astonishing speed and sharp beak, it easily penetrated the human body, leaving terrifying penetrating wounds one after another.

As the wind blew, the crew felt a pain in their shoulders. They lowered their heads and found a mutated bird rushing out of their right shoulder, leaving a huge blood hole.

"what!"

The crew screamed and covered the wound with their hands, but they couldn't cover the blood that spurted out.

The speed of the flock of birds was too fast for the bows and arrows to aim. Qi Luo drew out his dagger, gathered the crew members who could still resist, and swung the knife to kill the mutated birds that swooped down.

The actions of the flock of birds seem to be chaotic, but there is a certain track to be found. These crew members are not real idiots after all. Under the leadership of Qi Luo, they finally resisted the attack of the flock of birds. The knives and lights were densely integrated into the net, and a large group of mutant birds were beheaded. Killing falls, the forest is covered with a layer of bright red blood and falling feathers.

The mutated birds attacked endlessly, and Qi Luo and the others ran desperately while brandishing their knives.During the running, some people kept falling behind, surrounded by flocks of birds, and could no longer keep up with their companions.

There are not only birds in the dense forest, but also poisonous insects and weeds.When Ye An was scratched by a broken branch, his entire right leg became paralyzed, and he was almost unable to move. The direction Qi Luo and the others were heading happened to be where the rift was, and there were similar bushes all over the vicinity.

The rift is filled with water and connected with the waterfall on the top of the mountain, forming a rushing river.

The crew ran to the river, and before they had time to catch their breath, they encountered more than a dozen amphibious mutant fish.Several people near the river bank were dragged into the water on the spot, their flesh and blood were torn off, their bones were chewed to pieces, and they were torn to pieces before they could scream.

There are also a large number of leeches near the rift, which crawled in along the collars, cuffs and trousers of the crew as the team moved forward.The sharp mouthparts are firmly attached to the blood vessels. If the number is small, it is enough to suck a person's blood dry.

Not long after landing on the isolated island, the number of team members has dropped to less than 80.

Faced with this situation, even Qi Luo was a little startled.

Seeing a crew member kneeling on the ground, howling loudly while tearing off his shirt, and constantly scratching the leech that was biting him, Qi Luo clenched the dagger in his hand, his hostility rose, his eyes gradually turned crimson, and a large group lingered around him. The heat scorched the nearby mutated plants.

"Useless things!"

A chain of fire rises from under her feet and wraps around her body, as if covering her body with a layer of armor.Qi Luo didn't even look at the people who fell on the ground, and used the flames to open the way. All the mutated plants, mutated fish and poisonous insects that stood in front of her were burned to black charcoal, stepped on by her, and crushed in the mud.

Qiluo's fire is very special, no matter how heavy the rain is, it is difficult to extinguish it.

The crew kept silent, even if their backs were stung by leeches, they did not dare to howl and scratch. They could only ask others to help them beat them, and kept up with the city lord in front as quickly as possible to avoid being left behind.

When they walked out of the dense forest, there were only 50 people left in the team, and all the rest fell on the way.

This loss is staggering.

Qi Luo glanced across the rest of the crew, and the fiery red pupils made everyone feel nervous, and they all lowered their heads not daring to look at each other.

"Useless things!" Qi Luo scolded coldly, "If you want to live, you must cheer up, otherwise, no one will return to the boat alive."

"City Lord, do you still want to move forward?" Someone bravely asked.

"You don't have to leave." Qi Luo suddenly smiled, "If you don't want to leave, just stay."

After saying that, he untied the rope hanging from his waist, flew to a branch above the rift valley, crossed the rapid current during the ups and downs, and landed on the other side of the river.

"City Lord!"

The crew members were astonished, and they didn't dare to have other thoughts, and threw ropes to cross the river one after another.The landscape of the isolated island has changed too much, and there are dangers hidden everywhere on the island, and the situation is unpredictable.They must keep up with the city lord, otherwise they will really lose their lives here.

"Find what I want and take it out, each of them will lead a boat."

Qi Luo climbed up a giant tree with ropes, stood on the branch and looked at the cliff hanging from the waterfall, and said: "Find that mutant python and catch it back, and I will immediately fulfill my promise. Not only will you have a boat, but you will also have servants. Be the envy of everyone."

The crew members were inspired, and the previous depression and resentment were no longer seen.

Qi Luo jumped off the branch and led the team to move on.

On the cliff, Ye An stood by the cave, looking at the distance through the waterfall, feeling restless in his heart.A strange feeling gradually arises, exactly the same as when he was being chased by Xiao Yun.

As the distance kept getting closer, Qi Luo and his party came down the mountain and noticed something strange, Qi Luo ordered everyone to stop, and looked up at the rock walls full of caves, feeling suspicious in their hearts.

mutant?

Qiluo's flames were too hot, leaving traces along the way, except for the mutated plants that were burned, even the mud on the ground was dried.

The heat penetrated the rock formation and seeped into the ground bit by bit. The mutant python, which was supposed to be sleeping, felt it. Its huge body moved slowly, and its scales rubbed against each other, making harsh sounds.The golden eyes flicked open, and he raised his head and spat out a black letter.

Ye An and the mutated python were assimilated for a time, leaving a little connection with each other.The mutated python woke up suddenly, and the terrifying will suddenly spread, Ye An's head began to hurt again, and his ears hummed.

The pain kept coming, and his head seemed to explode. Ye An grabbed his hair, desperately trying to cut off the connection with the mutant python, but it was in vain.There was really no other way, he could only close his eyes and grit his teeth to bear the pain.

A sound came faintly.

Ye An raised his head, opened his eyes blurred by cold sweat, and looked at the entrance of the dark tunnel. A huge shadow was slowly approaching. , It was strangely clear.
