After confirming that there was nothing wrong with his two companions, Leo glanced at himself and around him again.

He found that the Panier battle ax in his hand, which had not changed in any way, was now stained with a layer of blood. At the same time, there were also a lot of blood spatters on his arms and body, and lying on the ground not far away was a

Weird beast.

I saw that this beast seemed to be pieced together from various common beasts. The body of a black panther has chicken feet on its legs, a scorpion tail on its tail, and a large parrot head on its head.

At this moment, a hole had been opened in the monster's abdomen, and all its internal organs were flowing out from the wound. The Panier battle ax he had just thrown was stuck in its neck. A large amount of blood came out of its neck, and its vitality soon disappeared.

It passes on it.

Just when Leo walked up to the monster, preparing to carefully observe the monster's body structure, and even planning to dissect it on the spot to taste the monster's meat, the monster also breathed its last breath.

When the monster died, a golden flame emerged from the monster's body, wrapping it up. At the same time, the blood that flowed out and splashed out also ignited a golden flame like ignited gasoline.

"Damn it!" Leo was caught off guard by the sudden flames. He quickly threw the Panier battle ax aside and slapped the flames caused by the blood on the surface of his clothes. But he soon discovered that these flames had no temperature, as if

Just like the illusion, it will not cause any harm to him, it will only burn the monster's body to ashes and completely evaporate the blood.

Watching these weird golden flames extinguish, Leo picked up the battle ax that had just been thrown on the ground and among the monster's ashes. What surprised him was that a little foreign matter was revealed in the ashes brought up by the battle ax. He removed the ashes from it.

Sweeping it open, I saw a small black heart with the texture of a gem lying on the ground. It seemed to be the remains of the monster after it was cremated.

Leo thought of several anecdotes about Federation psykers, one of which was that the bodies of some powerful psykers would spontaneously combust after death and be burned to ashes in a short period of time, and some indistinguishable things could often be found in the ashes.

Residues of material structures.

This rumor is very similar to the scene that just happened. The only difference is that one is a monster that he can easily kill, while the other is a powerful psychic who can walk in outer space for a short time.

Although Leo was very curious about what the black gemstone heart was, he did not reach out to touch it rashly. Instead, he fiddled with it with the battle ax in his hand. After confirming that there was no danger, he picked up the black gemstone heart.

Just when he picked up the little heart, the accessory brain system gave him a prompt.

"Discover high-energy substances that can be absorbed."

Seeing this reminder, Leo felt uncontrollably happy and informed. Not long ago, after feeling the high-energy force field of the Black Forest, he expected to find high-energy substances that could be absorbed by him in the Black Forest. Unexpectedly,

This expectation would come true so quickly, which gave him a feeling of unexpected surprise.

Under the excitement of Cui Chu, Leo couldn't wait to issue an order to the accessory brain system: "Check the structure of high-energy matter and match the absorption plan."

As the order was given, not long after, a three-dimensional diagram of his body appeared in front of Leo's eyes, and the diagram also marked the position of the small heart, and there was a numerical value at the position. Among them, the position of the legs was

Seventy-three, placing the arms is sixty-two, placing it on the abdomen is sixty-four, and the highest value is placed in the heart, which is ninety-two.

Leo wanted to absorb the high-energy substance in his hand immediately, but his current situation was really not suitable for doing these things, so he resisted the impulse in his heart, put the little heart into a small bag, and drove it

Tie it up with a rope like insecticide, hang it around your neck, and keep it close to your body.

After putting away the things, Leo wanted to see if the goblins or fairies above his head would also produce high-energy substances that he could absorb after the corpses were burned, but the trees were too high and it would take a while to climb up.

Not a short time. Since there is a monster like the one just now, there is not necessarily only one. He is not sure if there will be any monsters here after he climbs up. If there are, the two unconscious people can

It's dangerous.

"Send them out of the thick fog first, and then come back and have a look."

Leo made a decision in his mind and walked quickly to Nelson and Jason, who could not see their bodies, and was about to turn off his spiritual vision skills.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a vibration came from the ground, interrupting Leo's actions. Curious, he couldn't help but want to open his mental net to see what caused the vibration.

At this time, the trees about one kilometer in front of him suddenly collapsed. It was not just one tree that fell down, but rows of trees that fell down. There was no force to collide with them. They just fell down on their own, and the trees fell down.

They were intertwined with each other and laid on the ground, forming an extremely wide forest avenue.

The little fairies around the fallen trees fled one after another, and then gathered together, quickly forming a colorful cloud. At the same time, on the surrounding trees that did not fall, the little fairies also left the trees where they collected pollen and nectar.

Gather towards your companions.

Before Leo could figure out what the spectacle in front of him was about, he saw a huge figure walking from the road paved with trees, accompanied by a slight tremor on the ground.

"Deer! Such a big deer!" When Leo used the power of his spiritual vision to see clearly what the huge figure slowly walking in the distance was, he couldn't help but exclaimed.

I saw that it was a golden giant deer with a height of more than 200 meters. The tall trees around it were like short shrubs in front of this giant deer. They could only reach the deer's belly. Such a huge height did not include the tall trees.

If you include the height of a pair of soaring antlers, it would probably be more than 100 meters tall.

Such a huge giant deer is already very shocking in itself, but what is even more shocking is that Leo can vaguely see the tops of the antlers surrounded by patches of golden clouds, and the corners of some huge stone buildings are vaguely exposed, which is enough to judge.

There is probably a large building like a castle on top of the antlers.

In addition, he also found that the giant deer was so huge that it should be extremely heavy. However, the trees that its hooves stepped on were not damaged at all. After the giant deer walked by, it fell from the ground again.

Stand up straight and return to original position.

At this time, the giant deer approached the colorful cloud composed of little fairies, and saw the fairies flying towards the top of the antlers like a swarm of bees, and soon disappeared into the golden clouds.

"Moo!"

The return of the little fairy seemed to make the giant golden deer very happy. It only heard it neighing like a cow or a deer, and the whole forest trembled because of this neighing.

Leo was completely stunned by the magical scene before him, and he didn't know whether it was due to the emotional impact of shock or the suppression of the invisible power exuded by this giant deer. In short, his body could not move at all at this moment.

"Oops! Willpower!" When he felt something was wrong with his body, Leo immediately called up his personal data interface. At first glance, he found that his daily willpower value was rapidly decreasing and had dropped to single digits.

.

This made him couldn't help but associate the current situation with the huge black shadow he saw in the unknown place where he activated his spiritual power. The situation he faced was almost exactly the same, the only difference was that now his mechanical will skills had not yet been used.

After recovering from the cooling state, it is impossible to rely on mechanical will to temporarily fix the decrease in daily will value.

"Release psychic vision skills!"

Feeling that something was wrong with the situation, Leo chose the only thing he could do and immediately gave orders to the deputy brain system.

As the psychic vision skill controlled by the assistant brain system was lifted, the thick fog that disappeared before reappeared, and the figure of the giant deer also disappeared from his eyes. At the same time, the rapidly declining daily will value also stopped at seven o'clock. He was finally

Escaped.

A feeling of powerlessness ran through his body, leaving him unable to think of anything else. He lay down directly on the ground, as completely relaxed as he had been in the hotel room last night.

Although he relaxed physically and mentally, Leo did not do nothing. He focused on the personal data interface.

Just like when he saw the black shadow in that unknown place, the basic value of his will was improved. Now after he saw the giant golden deer, the basic value of his will was also improved, by five points, which means there is

A basic will value of thirty points.

At this time, Leo thought that he had only taken a look at the huge figure. Before he could see the specific appearance of the figure, his basic value increased by ten points. But just now, he was directly facing the golden giant deer and saw the giant deer's form clearly.

It’s very clear, and after watching it for a long time, it improved by five points.

Comparing purely from the basic value of the improved will, Leo couldn't help but feel that the golden giant deer seemed inferior to that huge figure.

But then he discovered that this perception was wrong, and it was a big mistake. Because he saw that his improved personal data was not only his will, but his physical fitness had improved a little, reaching 5.5, and his spirit had also improved.

At ten, the more important point is that the construction progress of the mental network skill module has reached ten percent, which is simply a leap forward.

After feeling that his physical strength had been restored, Leo sat up from the ground, walked quickly to Nelson and Jason, lifted them up, and walked out of the thick fog, ignoring the backpack and lantern that fell on the ground.

Soon, he walked out of the thick fog according to the topographic map in his eyes, walked onto the tree root arch bridge, and arrived at the other side of the creek.

After placing the two people on the ground, he slapped their cheeks. There was no sign of awakening. He took out his water bottle, poured some water on his hand, and flicked it on their faces.

After waiting for a while, they saw Nelson and Jason opening their eyes one after another. However, their minds had not yet recovered from their coma. They looked around with confused expressions and asked Leo in confusion.

: "Didn't we just...why are we here again?"

"When the thick fog appeared, you fainted." Leo pointed to the wall of fog on the other side of the river and said, "I was worried that something would happen to you, so I carried you out first."

Seeing the thick fog covering the entire forest, both of them realized what was going on, and both showed lingering fears. They had no doubt that without Leo, they might have completely fallen asleep in the thick fog.

Past and never wake up again.

"How is the tail you went to deal with?" Jason asked Leo deliberately using a topic as if to divert his fear of the thick fog.

"It's been solved." Leo answered simply.

"Look! Fog!" At this time, Nelson suddenly exclaimed.

Hearing this, the two of them looked at the thick fog on the other side of the river at the same time. They saw that the thick fog that had a visual range of less than one meter began to become lighter and lighter at a very fast speed, and completely disappeared in less than thirty seconds.

The forest ahead was as dark as before.

"The time is so short?" Looking at the dark forest across the river, Leo frowned and asked Nelson: "Didn't you say that the thick fog will stay for at least a few days? Why does it feel like it will end in less than ten minutes?

Already?"

Nelson also said in confusion: "I don't know what's going on?"

Leo did not ask any further, but asked the two of them if they could leave. Seeing that they nodded, he led them to the other side of the river again and returned to the place where they rested before.

The backpack and lantern were still on the ground, but what puzzled Leo was that the flame inside the lantern had gone out.

This lantern is a lantern specially made by Rabbit Town for environments like the Black Forest. Not only does it use special oil that can not be affected by the thick moisture in the forest, it also has a special treatment on the shape to make the flame inside the lantern

It will not be blown out by strong winds. Even if it falls into the water, it will not have any impact as long as it can be fished out in time.

Although the extinguishing of the lantern was just a trivial matter, it attracted Leo's attention. He opened the lantern and looked inside. He found that all the oil in the lantern was gone, and judging from the traces, it should have been burned out.

.

"How long can the oil in this lamp burn?" Leo asked.
