The host is a slime [Quick Transmigration]

"That's right, that's right, I smelled it too, it smells worse than accidentally stepping on poop!" Before Ohm could answer, the little elephant Lilian rolled up her nose and stuffed it into her mouth, looking like a baby about to be smoked.

Regarding the stench that Atum mentioned, in fact, Atum had smelled it before, and because of the predator's keen sense of smell, he was almost irritated at first.Ohm paused: "It's poisonous gas."

"Poisonous!" Atum frowned, and didn't ask what poison it was, and then his next move was to lower his head and pick up Ohm's neck meat and shake it on his back, as if he was going to run in the opposite direction from the lake—— It's too dangerous to poison Brother Ohm!

"Wait, wait for Atum!" Ohm was confused by this series of actions. When he lay on the back of the white lion, he saw that the other party had already run two steps, and quickly grabbed the other party's mane, "You Do you know where to run? And here is Red Valley, have you forgotten the Red Valley monster that Amanda said!" At the same time, he also felt warm for the other party's behavior of putting himself first.

However, his reaction coincided with the information given by lady.

According to lady's detection, the concentration near the lake is still relatively low, and the concentration towards the middle of the lake—even though lady can't give Ohm and them a bird's-eye view of the red valley, but within a radius of [-] meters centered on Ohm is "monitorable" area" - the concentration of hydrogen sulfide is higher.

In short, this ultra-toxic gas takes the center of the lake as the divergence point, and the concentration will decrease as it goes to the edge.

Even though Ohm and Atum's own "anti-toxicity" has good resistance to this gas, the baby elephant is not immune.

Although it is not clear how the little elephant was only slightly poisoned, but this kind of luck cannot be replicated, so the top priority is to hide in a safer place.

The lion's mane is generally not allowed to be touched by anyone other than himself, but for Atum, Ohm is an exception. He was not half angry, but stopped following Ohm's strength, and said very obediently: "Ohm Brother is right, I was too reckless, then Brother Ohm, we will go in whichever direction you say we will go."

Ohm was silent for a moment, and asked the system directly: "Lady, can you detect which direction we are heading in is safer?"

Because it was necessary to test the concentration of hydrogen sulfide in the air, the lady delayed for three seconds before answering: "Within one kilometer, the concentrations in the southeast and southwest directions are relatively low." The range of kilometers is already the limit of the system.

Ohm thanked the lady, lost in thought - two directions?

Ohm was hesitating to make a choice, when suddenly he heard a childish cry from behind: "Wait for me!" The little elephant Lilian ran over, panting, "Why are you running so fast? Don't leave me alone." As a heavyweight player who has no advantage in speed, Xiaoxiang said that she was really bitter.

※※※

In the end, Ohm and the others chose the southeast direction, because Lilian told them that the air in this direction would be more humid and there should be water.

Although he doubts Lilian's ability to find water as a baby, Ohm still trusts the ability of elephants to find their way. Let's treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

Having made a decision, Ohm and Atum didn't waste any more time, and they were going to go deep into the woods with the baby elephant—they didn't walk fast, because they were relatively unfamiliar with the geographical environment of the Red Valley (even if Atum Tom used to be the lion of Red Valley, but he was too young at that time, except for the vague memory of Red Valley, there was no way to come up with a useful route plan), and secondly, he was worried about Amanda’s words. The existence of the "monster" in the book.

After all, according to what Amanda said, there should be very, very few animals in the Red Valley now. In the dead silence, the sound of a little wind and grass can be amplified countless times.They didn't want to be locked in by the monster hearing the sound.

Before coming to Red Valley, Ohm didn't believe what Amanda said about Red Valley. After all, he was not a native caracal, but a well-informed slime.In the cosmic and interstellar era of the information explosion, even if he stays at home, he can know the world's affairs. It is also because his vision has been opened, so he has reservations about the danger here in Honggu. A world that rarely appears.

But when he actually set foot in the Red Valley, he seemed to have understood why Amanda’s talk about the Red Valley changed, not to mention the hydrogen sulfide gas that came from nowhere before, and there were no birds and insects in this dense forest. Ming's environment is enough to make him feel uneasy.

The strings in Ohm and Atum's hearts were tense, but Lilian had no sense of crisis, bouncing forward all the way.

Atum wanted to yell at the little elephant to be quiet, but Ohm felt that it was okay to let Lilian relax in this environment. She only walked a little lighter, but she sensiblely did not make other noises.

This is like a scene in a horror movie. In an environment that is too quiet, you can only hear your own breathing and Lilian's footsteps (Ohm and Atum can almost eliminate the sound because of the pads under their feet. level), maybe one will pop up in the next second...

The theater in Ohm's brain was staged in a mess, but his face remained tense. Finally, following the thinning of the trees, when they were about to walk out of the forest, they had no time to relax, and a piercing scream suddenly appeared It exploded right next to my ear: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Thinking that they were being attacked by the enemy, Ohm and Atum lowered their upper bodies unexpectedly, bared their fangs, and put on a defensive posture, but the next moment, they saw Lilian walking beside them shaking her nose and trembling. She simply hid behind them, regardless of whether her huge body could be covered: "Okay, so many lions!"

Atum: Have you forgotten that I am also a lion, and I wanted to eat you before?

Wait, a lot of lions?

Atum's eyes froze—didn't Amanda say that there were no more lions in the Red Valley?

Atum subconsciously looked at Ohm, and just met the other's gaze. They looked at each other for a while, exchanged eyes, and did not speak in a tacit understanding. Among the dense grass, you can faintly see about a dozen large brown-yellow-fur lions quietly lurking among them.

The reason why it was confirmed to be a lion was precisely because the manes of two male lions were not covered by the grass, but a circle was exposed, which was brown-black.

Lilian was still very scared, but she didn't dare to call out to attract the attention of the opposing lion group, so she could only stay where she was, calling her mother and the family leader inwardly.

"Are they... hunting? Are they guarding us?" Atum whispered to Ohm's ear and asked.

The detection black hair on the ear was blown by the airflow of the speech, and the sensitive ear felt the hot and humid breath, which made Ohm move his ear uncomfortably, and stared at the other party with sharp eyes: "The possibility of staring at us It's not big, but we came from the forest just now, and we didn't see any other large prey... Wait, there are two lion cubs among them?"

"Cub?"

Will the hunt still bring cubs?

Ohm habitually jumped on Atum's back while talking, and Atum stood up habitually, so that Ohm could see higher, farther and more clearly—as for the violence or not...he now As a huge white lion, the grass couldn't provide him with the best cover. In this case, he might as well show it openly and use his size advantage to frighten the opponent.

Of course, the most important reason is to serve Brother Ohm.

Ohm didn't stay on Atum's back for 2 minutes, and jumped off after he confirmed the situation: "...Don't be nervous, they won't launch an attack. It seems that they are already dead."

Atum's heart skipped a beat: "Dead?" Although he had heard from Amanda that there were no more lions in the Red Valley, seeing a pride of lions all die with his own eyes still shocked him a lot.

Ohm can quite empathize, and his tone is a bit heavy: "Ah, yes, they are all dead."

Ohm took the lead: "Probably because the wind was blowing past us, so we didn't smell their rotten smell...Anyway, let's go over and make sure."

In this kind of matter, Atum has always been what Ohm says. Although Lilian is still afraid of lions, if she doesn't follow Ohm and Atum closely, she doesn't know how to ensure her safety.

Thinking of what her mother told her before, if she got lost by accident, she must find a safe place to stay, so as to ensure her life safety, she would have a chance to see her mother again... Lilian felt that the safe place was around Ohm and Atum, So I must not leave Ohm and Atum's side, especially Ohm.

※※※

As Ohm and the others approached, even if the wind was against the wind, their noses could smell the smell of rotting corpses.

But Ohm didn't confirm the death of the group of lions just now because he saw the rotting corpses—in fact, even if they got closer, the group of lions showed no signs of scars on their bodies, from male lions to cubs.

Even at first glance, they seem to be resting, one of the two cubs is lying on the back of the lioness, and the other is sucking breast milk-but no matter how lifelike they move, the large pieces of slough from them The shriveled and dehydrated appearance of their hair and bodies already clearly showed that they did not have any breath of life.

Lilian was already terrified, but she didn't run around and scream, but just pitifully froze in place.It made Ohm breathe a sigh of relief - after all, he doesn't have much energy to chase after her now.

The more Ohm and Atum looked, the more dignified they looked—there was no wound, and at the same time, there was no sign of struggle or resistance on their faces. They were as quiet as if they were taking a daily rest, and then suddenly——!

lost his life.

But, who is it that can take the lives of a dozen lions in this instant?

Subconsciously, they got up the silent and deadly "monster" that Amanda said.

"Brother Ohm, we found a group of vultures here!"

Ohm followed Atum to look, and sure enough, he saw an air-dried skeleton with dried meat about [-] meters away from the lions. Judging from the size and the black and white fur scattered beside it, it was probably a zebra.Seven or eight vultures, some have fallen not far from the skeleton, and some have already got half of their bodies into the skeleton, with a piece of dried and blackened meat in their sharp beaks, and one is upside down but has wings. They spread out and flapped their wings to fly high... But without exception, they all showed no signs of life.

They also have no wounds on their bodies, and their expressions are very peaceful, without any panic on their faces—as if the pause button was pressed by some mysterious force, making them freeze in this scene forever.

I have to say, this scene is really scary.

But once again, Atum is very courageous, Ohm likes to make up brains but is scientific, and although Lilian is afraid, it is only because she is young. To some extent, she was not scared and fled.

Ohm and Atum originally came to see the strangeness of the Red Valley—it used to be a strange environment and rich species, and later added "monsters"—so they continued to explore after being stunned at the beginning .

And this investigation led them to discover another strange point that they had almost overlooked just now—it stands to reason that high temperature + exposure to the air is very easy to produce rotten maggots and pus, but no matter whether it is a lion , the vulture, or even the zebra carcass that was eaten up and down, there is not even a single maggot on it!

Atum was full of doubts: "Could it be that those disgusting bugs have been killed?"

ohm:"!"

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the heart. Atum may be complaining casually, but like a flash of lightning piercing the night, thinking of the direction of the wind blowing from his back just now, Ohm looked serious, but quickly recalled the previous situation in his mind. connect them in series.He looked at Atum who was still wandering around, and came up with a bold guess in his heart—could it be that Amanda's so-called "monster"...is actually hydrogen sulfide gas?
