Journey to the Half-Elf Plane

Mountain man Warren was very sad and angry. He took off his coarse clothes and tried hard to wipe the dirt off his fellow tribesmen. Then, still angry, he drew his long sword and chopped off the last tentacle.

Then, with unabated resentment, he raised his foot and stepped hard on the tentacle, intending to trample it until it was reduced to a pulp.

"No! Don't touch it."

Seeing Warren's actions, Ruby was shocked and tried to stop him.

But it was too late. The tip of the molten sunflower tentacle was originally gray-brown. After being stepped on, it seemed as if all the venom was radiating from it, and it turned transparent for a moment.

Warren's eyes widened, and his lower limbs twitched violently.

Then some black mesh lines appeared on his skin, spreading all the way to his neck. All capillaries and nerves were infected. The black mesh lines soon covered his entire face until the entire whites of his eyes turned black, and then he was completely lost. life.

Warren also died, killed by the sting of Rong Kui's tentacles.

"Human, why don't you listen to me?" Ruby sighed weakly, and all the weapons in her hands fell to the ground.

The jungle is already full of dangers, not to mention this forest of secret words that even people who are familiar with the jungle dare not step into. A tiny mistake can lead to the loss of life.

The half-orc turned his head and stepped forward to teach the half-elf a lesson. At the same time, he cursed: "Idiot, if it weren't for you, people wouldn't have died, damn half-elf."

Nifeng backed away in fear, and actually hid behind Loki, but Loki shrugged as if he didn't hear anything, and stepped aside again.

Aina stood up and stopped: "That's enough. No one wants to cause such consequences. What we need now is to get out."

"It may be difficult for us to get out of here." Cat orc Ruby's voice was trembling.

She pointed to the top of the tree trunks in front and said: "I have never heard of such a big sunflower, and it doesn't seem like there is only one here. Look at it above."

Following the direction pointed by the cat-orc Ruby, above the densely twisted trees were clusters of gray-brown shadows clinging to the tree trunks, which were similar in color to the tree trunks.

But the different shapes of the groups still allow people to distinguish that each of the twisted strange trees has the deadly giant molten sunflower just like before.

The half-elf Nifeng was crying faintly, and cursed: "Damn Littlefinger, you idiot led the way, where did you lead us to?"

Loki stared at him with a pair of cold gray eyes, and said in a low voice: "Shut up, or I will kill you!"

The cat orc suddenly said loudly: "Don't you know why? This is the Forest of Secret Words, a cursed place where evil witches haunt."

"We were driven in by those little bugs and used as food in this cursed jungle. We must find other ways."

Aina stopped everyone's panic and said: "We can't move forward from here. This kind of molten sunflower is too dangerous for us. We must retreat and find another way."

In this weird and depressing dense forest, no one dared to move forward rashly, so everyone took a short rest and planned to return along the original path and look for the jungle path that broke out. They didn't have time to travel for a while. Ruby suddenly stopped.

She stopped everyone at the front and pointed to the tree trunks of several plants not far away. Some people didn't know why and tried to look over, but they could only see that the bark seemed to be moving slightly.

Twisting in general.

However, Loki could clearly see that on the dozens of plants and trees ahead, especially on the gray-brown bark, there were densely packed insects the size of wheat grains.

The whole piece is covered on the tree trunk, and the wriggling of all the small insects is like the bark of the tree twisting, which makes people's scalp numb.

"Don't go there. Those are the little bugs that bit the skin before. If they bite in such a large number together, even if they are not swallowed up and eaten, they will be painful to death."

After everyone saw the situation clearly, the orc felt really uncomfortable on his skin and said, "What can we do? We can't move forward, and there is no way to retreat."

Unable to move forward or retreat, Ruby and Aina looked at the only half-elf boy who could still recognize the direction, hoping that he could find a way out.

Loki took out a well-preserved map from his arms. It was a map he got from the Oyue Circus. Some city routes were clearly marked, but in this dense forest, only the general range was marked, and Several well-known adventure trails and trade routes.

Kom looked over with disdain and said: "You want to take us out with this kind of thing, half-elf kid, it doesn't even have the name of this forest on it."

The half-elf fellow Nifeng looked at the map and said very dissatisfied: "Littlefinger, you ignorant fool will kill us."

Loki pulled out a sharp dog-leg knife and slashed it into the rough tree trunk next to him. He said in a low voice: "Don't test my patience, or the next moment, it will chop your head. Don't think I can." Treat fellow half-elves differently!"

After saying that, he pulled out the dog-leg knife, pointed at a place on the map with the tip of the knife, and said: "Starting from the river bank, the entire area here is the Secret Forest, but the degree of danger is obviously different. The more similar it is, the more dangerous it is. The center area in the northwest is more dangerous. The northwest is where giant molten sunflowers are distributed, and the entire retreat behind is blocked by this strange insect."

Loki then gave instructions: "Following the slightly higher ground ahead, we will go around the center of the Forest of Secret Whispers and around the area where these sunflowers are distributed. We must be careful when we see those twisted dead trees."

Half-elf Nifeng had a gloomy expression on his face. He didn't want to listen to Loki's instructions. His face was a mixture of disdain and fear, and his facial muscles were weirdly distorted.

But in the end, others agreed to this route, and even Colm stopped complaining.

In this strange dense forest, the fleeing team continued to move forward. This time the Orc was at the forefront. Now that everyone had been hungry for so long, he was the only one who still had some strength to overcome obstacles.

Loki and Ruby were in the middle and rear of the team respectively, responsible for being alert to what might happen around them.

Everyone was traveling cautiously this time, which also led to a slow pace. From time to time, they had to confirm whether the direction was correct and never step into the range of the melting sunflowers and insect swarms.

Before the sun sets, the environment in the dense forest has turned dark. Although the danger has weakened, everyone is not only hungry and tired, but now they also have to consider the issue of rest at night.

Ruby, the cat orc with the most experience in forest life, led a few people to find some dry branches and firewood nearby, and planned to make some bonfires here at night to drive away insects and beasts.

The bonfire was raised with difficulty, and the light of the fire in the dark forest illuminated a small space. The cat orcs picked some edible fruits near the place, and each person could not get one, barely giving it to the hungry escape team. A little comfort.

Everyone was sitting around the bonfire. There wasn't much else in this weird forest, but there were a lot of dead trees and branches. There was no need to worry about the bonfire going out.
