The wooden stick hit it with a whoosh, and it hit the branch where the little animal was squatting.
The branch was knocked up and down and vibrated greatly. Originally, the little animal wanted to escape after being startled, but at this time, it was shaken by the branch under its feet, and it couldn't stand still at all, and fell directly from the branch.
With a puff, the palm-sized animal made a hole in the soft snow on the ground. But before the little guy turned over, Keir's next blow came one after another.
boom!
This stick smashed the little animal's head, and it died immediately.
Keel rushed forward, caught the small animal, and found that it was a stuffed animal similar to a squirrel. While continuing to move forward, Keel twisted the squirrel's head and pulled on the broken neck, peeling off the entire squirrel's skin.
The fur was stuck on the belt, and then Keel briefly cleaned the squirrel's internal organs, then snapped off a passing branch, and wrapped the squirrel fur around the branch.
Although the items in the backpack were very scattered and broken, the flint and steel was intact. Relying on the shape of the flint and steel in his memory, Kiel picked it out of the backpack with his backhand.
As he moved forward, he rubbed the flint carefully. It quickly ignited the squirrel-oily fur on the branches. Holding a simple torch in one hand, Keel grabbed the cleaned squirrel torso in the other hand, and after briefly roasting it, he couldn't wait to swallow the dried squirrel meat into his stomach.
Even though the little squirrel was fatter, such a small size still couldn't satisfy Kiel's hungry stomach.
But the timing is not good, if there is no werewolf chasing soldiers behind him, then he can easily camp in place to rest, hunt and eat. It's a pity that it can't. While moving, you can still eat, so this kind of stupid little squirrel can be easily knocked down with a stick.
The average jackrabbit isn't very good, he doesn't have time to find a rabbit hole and then hang a rabbit.
After he ate the little roast squirrel in a few bites, Keel came to the water source in the middle of the woods.
The source of water for the woods was a small pool of frozen mud.
Judging from the frozen mud pond by the pool, it is obvious that this is the kind of place that the family of wild boars likes in summer. Even in winter, traces of mess can be seen here. Keel inspected a little and found hoof-prints and footprints of various animals.
On the animal trails on both sides of the pool, there are also messy and fresh traces.
After finding a beast path that was in the same direction as the ruins, Keel put out the torch and put it away, then walked over with the stick.
After walking for a while, I heard the humming of wild boars in the woods on both sides.
Keir smiled instead, and followed the sound to find it, passing through the leafless bushes, and soon caught sight of a wary wild boar.
Facing the adult wild boar who was digging at him in vigilance, Keel went up and hit the opponent's head with a stick.
This annoyed the wild boar all of a sudden, it yelled to call for support from its companions, and then rushed towards Kiel with its head down.
Slightly out of the way of the straight-forward charge, Keir kicked the wild boar's **** instead, knocking him to the ground. Hearing the grunting of more wild boars and the rattling of approaching, Keel retreated to the beast trail and hurried out of here.
Those wild boars suffered a lot, so how could they spare Kiel, the guy who ran away. The wild boar that had been kicked and clubbed grumbled loudly to its family members, which made the other wild boars full of righteous indignation and chased after Kiel.
The wild boar leader asked several female wild boars to lead the piglets back to the depths of the woods and bushes, and then led other adult wild boars to chase after Kiel.
That's what Keel wanted.
He quickly left the small forest along the beast path, and then walked towards the ruins at a faster pace.
-
Worf the werewolf chased into the woods along Kiel's trail.
It saw the small tree trunk that had been knocked down, and snorted disdainfully.
Then he smelled the smell of blood from his nose, and found the squirrel internal organs left by Keele on the road, which made him immediately know what Keir's plan was when he turned into the woods.
"So you're hungry because you haven't eaten? How could I give you a chance to eat?"
After all, it moved faster, but the forest was different from the wilderness outside. Tree roots and bushes always hindered its progress, which made the werewolf more and more annoying.
He said to himself that he wanted to give Keel, who was caught later, a good look.
It followed the trail to a frozen pool in the center of the woods, where the trails of numerous wild animals haunted it for a while. It was only then that Kiel's footprints were rediscovered on one side of the beast trail, and it chased after it.
But soon, Kiel's footprints were covered by the traces of many wild boars.
It could barely confirm that Kiel and the wild boar were taking the same route, and it was afraid that it would be thrown off by Kiel at this time, and it would be a disaster. Its identity is now exposed. If Kiel brushes it away and finds a way to return to the village, then it can only leave here in despair.
Only by killing Kiel, it can hide in the dark and crazily retaliate against other people before Lanisa Knight makes the next move.
After chasing for a while, it felt a little uneasy. Kiel's footprints were covered by a large number of wild boar footprints. Could this be a trap to escape its pursuit?
The more suspicious the werewolf Worf thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and before he was about to walk out of the woods, he suddenly turned back. Going back the same way, I came to the frozen pool in the center of the forest, and repeatedly distinguished the messy traces on the pool.
Not only that, but it also used its very sensitive nose after transforming into a werewolf to carefully sniff the places where Kiel walked.
Although the wounds on Kiel's body healed when he was resurrected, some blood stains that had been dried up still left a smell.
Especially for the werewolf Wolf who is sensitive to blood.
It couldn't be more, it wasn't a real wolf after all, and after transforming into a werewolf, its nose was more sensitive to the smell of blood that it often came into contact with.
After repeated sniffing, it did not find any traces left by other Kiel beside the pool. Obviously Kiel just walked away from the path he was chasing just now, and the rest may be just its suspicion.
This made the werewolf Worf more embarrassed, but fortunately no one saw it, so it continued to chase in the same way.
It is not afraid that Kiel will run away in the wilderness, even if the two chasing people are separated by a certain distance, where can Kiel go in the uninhabited wilderness covered with snow?
No matter how much he ran, there was only one trace on the ground, especially after another night. By the next day, the legs that were broken when he hit the horse before were roughly restored to normal movement.
At that time, the tall werewolf standing up can easily catch up with the small human beings who still have to move in the snow in the wilderness.
So, it's in no hurry.
-
Keir was very anxious. Although the wild boars chasing him could barely destroy his footprints, those wild boars would not keep chasing him.
Most of these wild animals have a territory similar to that of humans, like wild boars, and they probably only live in a large wilderness around the forest.
Other woods in the wilderness may be other wild boar territory. Once the boundary is crossed, it means a big fight for the territory.
Unlike the huge wild boar and its huge family team that Keel defeated in the wilderness glacier before, these smaller wild boar family settlements have no ability to go wherever they want in the wilderness without human activities.
Only in their own territory can they know where the grass roots are the most delicious, where there is a lot of rotten wood, and where there are many bugs in the rotten wood. Where in the forest there are more insect larvae living underground, and where there are edible roots and tubers growing.
So, unlike the werewolves, the wild boars chasing after Kiel kept chasing until dark before they gave up chasing the weak human who provoked their family.
Go back along the same road, and wait until an hour after nightfall, they will meet the werewolf chasing head-on.
Although the werewolf exuded a dangerous smell, the wild boars who had just "victory" were extremely courageous and had a particularly bad temper. They gathered together and rushed towards the werewolf angrily.
"Looking for death!" Worf the werewolf didn't want to procrastinate, but these blind and ignorant beasts actually regarded the angry wolf as a lone wolf that could be chased away at will.
How can this be!
The regrown sharp claws on the palm had another section, just as it was hungry and tired after a day, these blind wild boars hit the muzzle of the gun.
The werewolf, who was also taller than the wild boar lying on the ground, ignored the other wild boars hitting him, grabbed the tusks of the leading wild boar with both hands, threw it hard, and fell to the ground directly by the opponent's impact.
Five sharp claws grabbed the wild boar's dirty belly fiercely, and a large piece of flesh and blood rolled out. Even if the wild boar's head under his right palm screamed fiercely, Wolf the werewolf firmly pressed it to the ground .
The wild boars around frantically hit it repeatedly, and it didn't even bother to taste the heart of the wild boar. Directly open the bow with both paws left and right, each catches a wild boar's head, and then exerts force to hit the two together fiercely.
Boom!
The heads of the two wild boars collided, and they immediately became dizzy.
Then the werewolf took advantage of the dizziness of the two, and directly inserted the intact thumb and sharp claws through the eyes of the two wild boars.
The sharp claws entered the brain, and directly killed the two wild boars.
Seeing that the situation was not going well, the remaining two wild boars knew that everyone had encountered a hard poke this time, howled and wanted to escape, but were caught by the werewolf Wolf who quickly caught up on the ground and grabbed their hind legs.
The two still wanted to escape, but Worf the werewolf aroused a tyrannical desire to chase after them, tearing their hind legs, rear hips, and back with claws.
After the two wild boars had no more energy to run away, it grabbed the mouths of the two wild boars and used all its strength to tear the mouths of the wild boars to pieces and kill them.
"Whirring whirring."
It panted fiercely. Although it killed all five wild boars blocking the way, it also had many places on its body that were rotted by the wild boar's fangs. But it doesn't care, these minor injuries can be recovered in just over a day, but it will consume some physical strength and fat.
But with the five wild boars in the account, they can fill their stomachs full no matter what, and a little injury is not a problem.
It hesitated for a while whether to chase Kiel at night, but after thinking about it for a while, it still felt that Kiel didn't have any weapons and equipment on him, nor did he bring any things to go out with him. It was impossible to rush on this cold winter night.
Most of them hid quietly somewhere, waiting for dawn before escaping.
Moreover, wave after wave of **** smell was sent into the brain from the nasal cavity, and it swallowed the throat.
Hunger eats not only Kiel the hunted, but also the pursuer.
Crouching down, it still opened its mouth to bite its own spoils.
-
Contrary to what Worf the werewolf thought, Kiel did not hide in a safe shelter for the night, but headed towards the ruins with a simple torch.
Winter nights are tough, and it's okay if you just stay in a safe place. But once you want to challenge the challenge and get out of the hiding place, the freezing, darkness, and cold wind will teach you to re-understand the harsh nature.
Kiel took a big gulp of the cold air, and then spit out clouds of water mist around his mouth and nose.
The simple torch held high in his hand can only illuminate a small area around him, at best it can prevent him from falling into a sudden pit, or allow Kiel to distinguish whether the next step under his feet is uphill or downhill.
He wanted to make a foot stand for easy movement, but he didn't have any tools at hand.
He didn't dare to delay in one place, so he had to give up on this good idea.
Fortunately, when he was resurrected before, not only his body recovered, but his physical strength also recovered. After coming out of the lady's dream, he was also very energetic, even if he didn't rest tonight, he would not be sleepy.
Except that hunger tortured him all the way.
Occasionally, under the lighting of the torches, one can see pairs of bright spots hanging in the air at the top or foot of the **** in the distance around.
He knew that those were wild beasts that were active in the winter wilderness, and they were watching him cautiously.
If he fell or froze to death in the wilderness, the beasts would rush to bite him and devour his body. And some beasts that are bold, or overly confident in their abilities, will get closer to Kiel.
At this time, even if Kiel was hungry and his hands were empty, he still had to pretend that he was fearless.
He yelled and didn't stop.
This allowed him to gradually shake off some of the beasts who were too cautious to stay put.
While coping with these troubles, Kiel carefully distinguished the surrounding terrain, and at the same time recalled how he went back and forth to this place before, and compared it with the current terrain one by one.
He kept comparing the roads he had traveled all the way in his mind, calculating his footsteps and direction, as well as the relative position where he passed by Doral Forest Village before.
In this way, he walked all the way, driving away the beasts that wanted to eat him.
When the torch was about to go out, he lifted the snow on the ground and pulled out the dead grass covered by the snow. Shaking off the dry and hard soil, Keel wrapped the long weeds with their roots around the top of the torch and burned them.
It didn't last long, so he had to keep doing it.
When passing through sparse woods, Keel would kick down young trees and drag the thing, dismantling it as he went. The demolished things are burned on the torch with hay bundles.
When this night that he would never forget in the following days passed, a corner of the world lit up with a ray of morning light.
Keel also climbed a higher **** than the surrounding hills at the same time.
He stuck the very short torch he was burning upside down in the ice and snow at his feet, and looked weakly at everything in front of him.
In the valley, the roots of many huge petrified giant trees appeared in front of him, each of which was bigger than the tall buildings he had seen in Kendall City.
One side of the valley gradually tightened, leaving only a narrow gap in the end, while the other end was densely covered with straight arrow-like trees, and those trees were so close together that it was impossible to pass through them at all.
And in a flat area between the roots of the giant trees in the valley, a camp can still be vaguely seen here.
-
Keir sat on the ground and slid sideways slightly.
The inner hill was not too steep, and he slid down it quickly. Patting the remaining ice and snow on his body, Kiel strode towards the camp he had established.
The remains of the original fire surrounded by stones have long been buried by thick snow, but the original appearance can still be distinguished from the surrounding environment. He didn't intend to raise a flame, after all, there was not much food left in this camp. Even if there is, it is already rotten.
He still remembered that under the ground on one side of the camp fire, he also buried most of the elf light metal he got from the ruins, thinking that he would have to find a time to collect it into the building that Ms. Apolfina built. In a special dream.
Not only that, but other valuable materials that are not easy to take away have to be moved into the dream. I just don't know if there is an upper limit to the size and weight of that dream.
If possible, he intends to put some adventure supplies inside, so that not only a change of clothes and equipment, but also weapons can be 'carried' there.
Some food can also be stored there. Although the lady said that things from the outside world will also spoil inside, at least it is a way, isn't it?
He was really fed up with the feeling of hunger.
However, he has not yet mastered how to enter the dreamland at any time. After all, he was chased by werewolves as soon as he was resurrected. There was no time for An Sheng to study the blood ring~www.mtlnovel.com~ He looked around and found the semi-underground crypt he had dug before. , although it was just as cold inside, it was considered indoors after all, so it still gave him some extra sense of security.
The crypt was very dark and there was no lighting. Keel picked up the scattered items left here before in the dark, and started digging with these items. He quickly dug out a wooden box in the place where he slept before.
I went outside and opened the wooden box, as expected, except for a large number of sparkling elf gems, the elf ring that was placed in the wooden box before was not inside.
Of course it wasn't there, the thing was now inside his chest, replacing his heart and helping pump blood throughout his body.
"Damn, a werewolf who must die. Huh, this is where you will die." He said through gritted teeth, touching his heart, and Keir became sad again.
After closing the wooden box, Keir took off the small backpack on his body, opened it and poured out all the contents.
Put the wooden box containing the elf gems into the backpack, as well as survival supplies such as flint and steel. In addition, Kiel put some red-eyed mushroom candy pills in the small bag on his waist, and put away all the scattered coins. into a small backpack.
Then, Keel picked up the smashed and prepared food residues that were originally stored in the backpack, and put them into his mouth to swallow one by one.
After simply eating something, Keel packed up, put on his small backpack, and then walked towards a tall petrified giant tree stump.
On top of that stump, a simple wooden lift was built.
And just inside that tree stump is the ancient elf ruins that Kiel said, and the research room that Ms. Apolfina said.
Keel heavily left footprints on the snow, ready to fight to the death with the werewolf there.
