Douluo: Bright Fire

Chapter 160 Deer Hunting Team

The huge frozen forest is covered with heavy snow. In some places, there is even a meter or two of snow, and it is a vast expanse of white. If you are not familiar with this place, you will probably disappear as soon as you step on it.

It was a rare sunny day in the forest today. Such good weather was rare to see once a month.

In order to show their status, the nobles of the Tiandou Empire would send soul masters or spend gold soul coins to find animal trapping teams to capture rare soul beasts in various soul beast habitats.

Not to hunt for soul rings, but to keep them in captivity or use them for cooking.

There is a not-so-rare soul beast in the Frozen Forest. There are no more and no less. In recent decades, some soul masters have captured and cooked this kind of soul beast and found that its meat is tender and delicious. No matter how it is cooked, it is top-notch.

Therefore, this small and medium-sized spirit beast called Frost Deer, which lives in the frozen forest, has changed from a relatively common state to a rare spirit beast that is very difficult to see in just a few decades.

Even so, there are still many soul masters who come to the harsh frozen forest to capture frost deer driven by profit.Even if there is a high possibility that you will not see anything, you still keep going.This kind of team also has a special name here in the frozen forest - deer hunting team.

"Captain, we have been here for several days. The snowstorm is expected to come in a day or two. Do we want to continue?" A member of the deer hunting team looked at the clearing sky worriedly.

It had been four days since they received the commission to capture the Frost Deer, and they happened to enter the frozen forest when it was calm. This was also the time when the spirit beasts in the forest were most active.

The Frost Deer they caught without much effort last time earned them a large sum of gold soul coins.After four days of this capture operation, we only saw one trace of a frost deer.

Counting the time, the next snowstorm will definitely appear in the frozen forest as early as tomorrow and the day after tomorrow at the latest.It's time to withdraw if you can't find it today.

The deer hunting captain obviously understood the concerns of the team members, but he was not willing to go back in vain.

They can only hope that the footprints of the Frost Deer will allow them to see the Frost Deer today.

The captain turned around and encouraged the six team members behind him: "This footprint was obviously left not long ago. We will follow it for a while. If there is no result, then we will withdraw."

He is also responsible for the lives of the team members. Everyone's family has someone waiting for them to go back, and they can't be forced to stay here just because they are hunting deer.

"Pay attention to your surroundings. The position in front of you is already very close to the inner circle of the forest. If you leave this section of the road, you will enter an unfamiliar section. Report any situation at any time." The captain of the deer hunting team reminded again.

Then everyone slowly moved forward along the frost deer tracks on the ground.

The members of their team are all above 50 years old, born as commoners, and their soul power levels are basically in the 50s.

Because they are familiar with the environment of the frozen forest and know which routes are safer, they formed a team to accept the task of capturing soul beasts in the frozen forest.

Frost Deer is the largest commission they can receive, and it is also the most profitable commission. Compared with making money in the big soul fighting arena, catching soul beasts can make money faster and safer.

Catching soul beasts does not necessarily lead to death, but there are too many soul masters with malicious intentions in the soul battle in the big soul fighting arena, so it is difficult to ensure one's own safety.

What's more, a group of seven of them can evacuate in time when encountering powerful soul beasts.The powerful soul beasts that were more than 8 years old that they encountered the year before were unable to retain the seven of them, which proved that their ability to save lives was by no means ordinary.

Just as they were slowly moving forward following the footsteps, there were extremely obscure soul power fluctuations brewing under the snow in front of them.

The deer hunting captain stared straight ahead with all his concentration, and his constantly bullying ears showed that he was not at peace in his heart.He always felt like something was wrong, as if someone was watching them.

At this moment, the footprints they had been following disappeared inexplicably in a patch of snow. There was no trace of the Frost Deer in a large blank patch of snow next to it, as if they had disappeared out of thin air.

"No, let's leave quickly!" The deer hunting captain immediately issued the order and retreated as fast as possible.The snow layer collapsed silently, and a streak of white streaked across with splashing snowflakes.Before the deer hunting team leader noticed the white trace, one of the team members screamed in pain.

"Be careful!!!" The team member seemed to have been hit hard. The huge force knocked him into the air and hit the trunk of the tree nearby. The snow that fell from the tree crown due to the impact buried him.

The remaining six people reacted in time and looked around cautiously, back to back.

"Damn it, what happened just now? What was the sneak attack on the sixth child?" The deer hunting captain observed the surroundings nervously and shouted: "The third child!"

The third child in the team understood it, and a black compass appeared in his hand. This was his martial spirit.The purple soul ring rose from the feet of Lao San, and his position moved from the edge of the team to the middle of the team and was surrounded.This is to protect his safety.

The ability of this purple soul ring is detection. As long as it is within a certain range, all living creatures in it will be invisible.But this requires Lao San to stand still and concentrate on it.

The forest was eerily quiet, and a slight cold wind hit each of their faces.

After a moment, Lao San, who had his eyes closed, opened his eyes and whispered: "Lao San is fine, the injury is not serious. He is hiding there now, waiting for your order, Captain."

At the same time, the third child also gave me a look, which contained a lot of information.

The captain nodded and looked at the two surrounding team members.

At the moment of lightning, everyone suddenly dispersed, and a sharp and piercing howl broke out. As the scream rang out, Lao Liu, who had been buried in the snow, jumped up from it, and launched a fierce attack with the deer hunter captain towards the snowdrift not far away from him. attack.

The white figure was forced to appear due to this attack.

They saw a flawless snow leopard staring at them with its ruby-like bloody eyes.

"It's a snow leopard who loves intelligence!"

The deer hunting captain looked serious. This kind of spirit beast was at the top of the food chain in the frozen forest.Every soul master operating in the frozen forest knows that the Zhixue Snow Leopard is inherently powerful and has extraordinary intelligence.What it likes most is to torture its prey, especially when it is full!

It seems that the frost deer had died in the leopard's mouth.

"Old Six, come back!"

What Lao Liu likes most is sneak attack spirit beasts, but compared with Snow Leopard, it is still far behind. Snow Leopard is the real Lao Liu!

"Roar!" A roar came from behind them, drawing their attention.

I saw another smart snow leopard appear. There were claw marks on its face, and the power exuded from its body was even more powerful than the one that sneaked up on them!
………………

"Roar" a roar came from far away.

"Jiang Ying is following me." Dugu Bo said with a frown.He felt a powerful momentum erupting in the forest, so powerful that it seemed like the entire forest was shaking.

It seems that a forest overlord has appeared for some unknown reason.
