Chapter 1365 Little Accident

Compared with the various conditions that occurred on the first night after entering the Endless Ridge, the nights in the following two days were obviously much quieter. Not only were there no big monster insect larvae throughout the night, but also those dangerous monsters hidden in the darkness.

And the beast did not appear.

In fact, for the lumberjack family, nights like this are the norm in their lives. Situations like the first night are completely rare cases. In the information recorded by the lumberjack family over the years, there are similar cases like this.

The total number of experiences does not exceed twenty times, which can be said to be very few.

Although they had lived peacefully for the past two days, the three young people from the Powell family were not happy at all because they found that they were lost.

It is not correct to say that they were lost. The correct statement is that they became like ordinary people and began to be affected by the mysterious power of Mount Trubo.

The reason they discovered something was wrong was that according to their calculations, they should arrive at the last temporary resting place at noon. As long as they rested there for one night and hit the road the next day, they would be able to reach the foot of Trubo Mountain in the afternoon and build it for themselves by the lumberjack family.

mountain city.

However, the problem now is that it is already in the afternoon, and there is not much time left before dark, but the temporary resting place has never appeared, so they wonder whether they will lose their protection from the mystery of Mount Trubo.

The ability to influence power has become trapped in Mount Troub like ordinary people.

Leo also completely took note of the concerns of these three people. In fact, compared to the three people who only discovered something was wrong after noon, he discovered that something was wrong in the morning.

If we want to talk about a specific time, it was in the morning. After they encountered the remains of an investigator sent by the Ott Federation into the mountain, something was wrong with the three members of the lumberjack family.

On the previous road, this was not the first time that Leo and his party encountered the remains of victims of the Otter Federation. However, those remains were all scattered in the gravel. If there were not some clothes as markers, it would have been difficult to find them.

The remains were identified among the rubble on the hillside.

But this remains is different. This remains did not die naturally, but was tied to a big rock by chains and died slowly. In the end, the cause of his death could not be identified, but it is certain that he

His death must have been very painful at that time, because there were a lot of finger scratch marks on the surface of the big stone where he was bound, and the ten fingers of the remains were all very worn, and even the first knuckles of some of the fingers had been worn away.

.

It can be seen that the deceased was in extreme pain at that time and could not help but scratch things around him. The pain was so intense that he could not feel it even if his fingers were worn or polished.

When the three people saw these corpses, their faces changed, and they were as pale as if all the blood had been drained out. Their expressions of fear were as if they had seen something terrible, and this fearful emotion even exceeded that of that night.

The fear of the appearance of strange insect larvae.

Leo didn't ask about the origin of the corpse at the time, he just thought it was the lumberjack family's punishment for the intruder. However, now it seems that this matter is not as simple as it seems.

"It's over, we're done! The curse is real, we are all cursed!" At this time, the young man at the head looked at the darkening sky and couldn't help but murmured in despair.

The faces of the other two people were also full of despair, and their legs seemed to have lost strength, and they sat softly on the ground.

"What happened to that corpse just now?" Leo walked up to a few people and asked.

The three of them looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and finally told the story about the corpse.

It turned out that there was a member of the lumberjack family in the exploration team sent by the Otter Federation, and he joined the team as a guide.

In fact, the Otter Federation has also discovered some mysteries of Mount Trumbo. At that time, there were some people in Mount Trumbo who had the ability to freely enter and exit Mount Trumbo, but they did not know the specific details of these people, so they

I looked for an opportunity to catch a person, and used coercion and inducement to make that person a guide.

As a result, the guide failed to lead the exploration team to the foot of Mount Trubo. Even if there was a guide, those who entered the mountain were still affected by the mysterious power of Mount Trubo and became lost one after another. In the end, only the guide returned.

Arrive at the mountain city.

However, after he returned to the mountain city, he did not receive comfort and care from his tribe. Instead, he was treated as a traitor. He was chained to a stone, and then tortured with a torture method that only family elders could master, until

death to warn other members of each lumberjack family not to become traitors.

No one knows how the guide died in the end, but there is a legend among the lumberjack family that the guide issued a curse before his death. After the curse, all those who serve as guides for outsiders will be lost forever in the endless ridge.

.

However, no one in the lumberjack family believed in this curse. They all believed that it was just a lie deliberately fabricated by the elders of the family in order to avoid similar things from happening again, hoping that it would act as a deterrent.

Because this curse has never happened, even now, most people in the lumberjack family believe that the story about the punishment of family traitors is also false, and was deliberately fabricated to prove the existence of the curse.

However, now the three members of the Powell family seem to have believed that the curse is real, because the corpse of the family traitor who was tortured to death in the story has really appeared in front of them, and the dilemma in their hearts is clear.

This is the best example of being cursed.

After listening to the three people's accounts, before Leo had time to check whether the curse mentioned by the three people was true, Sylvia on the side had already said firmly: "It's fake, the three of them don't have the power of the curse."

.”

Hearing Sylvia's words, Leo was stunned. Although he didn't know why Sylvia was so sure, he still chose to believe Sylvia's words because he felt that since Sylvia had completed her life at the level of life,

If she has evolved by leaps and bounds, she will definitely have many unique talents, and among these abilities may be the ability to see through curses.

After eliminating the cause of the curse, Leo needed to consider what caused the problems with the abilities of the three of them.

For Leo, if it was really because of the curse, it would be easier. He only needed to find the cause from the three people, and then remove the curse power from the three people. This at least had a targeted goal, but now

He had no idea what caused the three people's immunity to Mount Troub to weaken.

The reason why it is said to be weakening rather than disappearing is mainly because the extended space of the endless ridge did not fully affect them. Their journey this day was still a long way forward, but compared with the previous two days

Come on, the distance is slightly shorter.

Leo initially looked for the cause on the three of them, but soon found that the three of them were normal and had no physical problems. So he could only shift the direction of his investigation to other aspects, such as the surrounding environment. For this reason, he temporarily turned the distortion

He put away the amulet of power and carefully sensed the changes in the intensity of the surrounding energy fluctuations without the influence of any external force.

As a result, as soon as he put away the amulet of twisted power, he immediately ended the search for the problem, because he was already sure that the problem lay in the surrounding environment, because the energy fluctuations he felt at this moment were stronger than when he had just entered

The energy fluctuations he felt when he reached the Endless Ridge were more than twice as strong. The moment he put away the amulet of twisted power, he almost didn't need to release his spiritual net, and he could already clearly feel the squeezing and repulsion of the surrounding forces against him.

He even had the illusion that Sylvia and the three young men from the lumberjack family who were standing next to him were quickly moving away. This was obviously the effect of the extended space on him.

"Have you, the lumberjack family, ever experienced a sudden increase in the mysterious power somewhere in Mount Trubo, and a significant weakening of your immunity?" Leo, who discovered the problem, immediately moved toward the place where he had not yet recovered from his despair.

The three people who came over asked.

"Ah?" The three of them could not calm down for a while. They were stunned for a while before they realized Leo's question.

However, the three of them are obviously ordinary members of the Powell family. They are completely confused about Leo's questions and naturally cannot give any answers.

"I remember that the manual mentioned some similar situations." At this time, one of them suddenly seemed to have remembered something and shouted.

After this person's reminder, the other two people also remembered something one after another, and talked about the manual they mentioned.

That manual was an experience manual for the rangers of the Lumberjack family. Most of it mentioned what problems they encountered while patrolling the Truber Mountain area, how to solve them, and how to protect themselves.

However, these three people obviously did not pay special attention to the contents of this manual, because among the experiences recorded in the manual, there was no relevant experience of the Powell family, because the Powell family basically would not encounter the experiences mentioned in the manual.

The dangers involved. Therefore, they did not memorize the contents carefully and just read through them hastily.

Now they recalled that the current situation seemed to be somewhat similar to a situation recorded in the manual, but they could not remember the specific content.

Seeing that the three of them could not recall the contents of the manual, Leo decided to do it himself.

I saw that he walked directly in front of the three people and used hypnosis on them. Because hypnosis is not a supernatural power, it is just a psychological suggestion caused by words and movements, so it was not interfered by the mysterious power shrouded in Mount Trubo.

Tao, and because the three of them were unsuspecting, the effect was very good.

Soon, under Leo's guidance, the three of them began to discover the contents of their subconscious memories, and recounted them in detail.

Soon the three of them mentioned similar situations recorded in the manual, and also talked about the causes of such situations and how to deal with them.

"The giant monster lays eggs?" Leo and Sylvia were a little surprised after listening to the three people's statements, because it was mentioned in the manual that the reason why the lumberjack family's immunity failed in the Endless Ridge was because of the giant monster.

The monster insect is about to lay eggs, and the process of laying eggs will cause the big monster insect to lose its power, causing the mysterious power of Endless Ridge to increase, thus creating the illusion that its ability has failed.

The way to deal with this situation is very simple. Dig a cave in the ground where you can bury yourself, and hide in the cave until the end of the giant monster insect's egg laying. The sign of the end is easily identifiable as a cry. When you hear

A scream can make the listener feel happy from the bottom of his heart, which means that the giant monster insect has finished laying eggs.

There is one thing you need to pay attention to when hiding, that is, never get out of the cave and look up into the sky.

In addition, the length of time for the giant monster insect to lay eggs cannot be determined. If it is short, it will be over in one night. If it is long, it may take several days or even months. During this time, if sufficient water is not prepared,

If you want to find food and food, you can only wait for death. As for leaving the cave to find food and water, you will definitely die.

After understanding the situation, Leo and Sylvia felt that regardless of whether this method was useful, it was necessary to dig a cave and build a temporary shelter.

So, the two found a place with slightly firmer geology on the side of the hillside and started digging.

When the three young men from the lumberjack family heard that Leo and Sylvia were going to dig a cave on the rocky hillside, they all felt that they might have gone crazy.

However, when they saw Leo and Sylvia taking action, they all felt that they might be crazy because they thought they were seeing hallucinations.

They saw that Sylvia, who was beautiful and terrifying in their eyes, suddenly created a ball of flame out of thin air, and then the flame erupted into a pillar of fire towards the rock on the hillside she designated. The temperature of this pillar of fire was very high, so high that it touched the rock.

In an instant, the rock melted into lava, and an irregular cave appeared in front of the three people.

Following Leo's seemingly casual waving hands, the softened rocks and lava in the cave were grabbed out as if by an invisible big hand and thrown aside, and the inner walls of the cave were also squeezed by invisible forces.

Press down flat and smooth.

When the last ball of lava was grabbed out, the interior of a cave that could accommodate dozens of people was completely formed. The lava grabbed by the invisible hands was not discarded, but was kneaded repeatedly in the air, and finally kneaded into a

A stone door was opened, leaning against the entrance.

On the other side, the fireball created by Sylvia also stopped spitting fire and was dispersed. However, at the same time as the fireball disappeared, an invisible whirlwind appeared in the cave and blew out the hot air in the cave.

After more than ten minutes, the cave had completely cooled down.

"It's not bad as a temporary residence." Leo walked into the cave and looked around and said.

"It won't be good if it takes a long time." Sylvia frowned and said.

Leo nodded and said, "If it takes a long time, dig deeper and build a toilet or something."

Sylvia said nothing more.
