Comprehensive Manga: The Throne of Kings

"I don't know, everyone in the town is wondering, well, we hunters really don't know how to live in the future." Onda drank the whole glass of wine in one breath, and said worriedly.

"It's very interesting. I want to check it out. This thing is abnormal, and I just don't know where to go." Li Yi thought about it, and said to Onda: "Brother Onda, my job of running errands and exploring the road is not easy. , Go back and tell the boss, let’s go home. There is no fur or wild animals in Duling Town. Take a look at the situation in the Ebe Forest and find out why these wild beasts have disappeared, there must be a reason for everything, I am not a coward, I don't believe any monsters are causing trouble."

Onda and the merchant widened their eyes and looked at Li Yi in surprise. After a long time Onda said, "Little brother, didn't you listen to what I said just now? A team of hunters went deep into the forest two months ago. If they haven’t come out yet, these reckless men must be dead, I heard from my brother, although money is a good thing, it must be spent.”

Li Yi said with a smile: "Thank you for your concern, but don't worry, brother, I still have some confidence in my ability. I won't do things I'm not sure about."

Onda looked into Li Yi's eyes, slapped the table hard for a long time and stood up, "Damn it, this town is also my home, and I want to make a living here, it seems that the little brother is so courageous." I didn’t plant any more, like this! Tomorrow I’ll go see which other hunters are going with you, and then I’ll go with you, I really don’t believe it, all the monsters in this forest have spread their wings and flew, if you let me know Which bird and ghost is playing tricks, I must kill him!"

Li Yi felt a little guilty, and deliberately led these people into the forest with him, just to find a guide. If he encountered a few giant sword-backed beasts that he saw last time, he felt that he was still sure that he could guarantee these People's safety is a big deal, just let them go back. "Well, gather here tomorrow morning, only bring some dry food and weapons, don't take other bits and pieces. I will live in this tavern tonight."

"Okay! Count me in too!" the merchant also shouted, "It's not a problem to wait here all the time. I might as well take my brother with you. Brother Onda, don't worry, we people have some self-defense when we travel north and south. We have a lot of wildebeest in our cavalry, so it won't drag you down."

After the discussion, the three of them dispersed.

On the second day, in front of the tavern in Duling Town, Ang Da came early with four men, and was cleaning the knives and arrows and tidying up the leather helmet horses.After a night of meditation, Li Yi felt full of energy and in good condition. ..

He leaned against the big tree next to the tavern, and settled the store money with the tavern owner. He had known about this before, and the currency used by God Mercy Star was also gold and silver, so he took out a small diamond to settle the bill. I bought a large bag of cooked food for Li Yi to make dry food. Li Yixiu was able to eat without food in order to reach the heartbeat stage, but he didn't want to arouse others' suspicion, so he readily accepted it.

After waiting for less than a cup of tea, the merchant came with his team of ten or so horses. These horses looked a bit like the horses on Earth, but they were much taller and more robust, with a bull's head. The head and the two long horns look very powerful, but the neck is very short, so there is no need for a rein, as long as you firmly grasp the long horns of the "horse", you can control the direction of the mount.Li Yi murmured in his heart: "Isn't it a biological Harley motorcycle?" Because of his short stature, he could barely hold the horns when riding on it, and he looked very embarrassed.

When the crowd was assembled, Ang Da gave a long shout and everyone set off slowly.But what didn't match their atmosphere was that the people in the town looked at them coldly, as if they were looking at a group of dead people.

Surrounded by endless lush greenery, looking up to the sky, there are towering giant trees piercing the clouds. (..) Wildebeests are struggling to move in the waist-high grass, blood-sucking flying insects are always buzzing in the ears, the air is humid, people's sweat has fallen down in large pieces, and the clothes are wet and sticky On the body, I felt extremely uncomfortable, and the forest was extremely quiet, except for the humming of mosquitoes, there was no other sound

The wildebeests of the caravan were rustling on the thick fallen leaves. People kept their heads buried in their heads. Li Yi took out a watch to check the time. It was already past three o'clock in the afternoon. "Brother Onda, we've been walking for a whole morning, but we didn't see a trace of a wild beast. You have rich experience, do you know where the wild beasts gathered before?"

Onda took out the water bag and took a drink of water, and said: "At this speed, we can reach Senlv Lake when the sun goes down tomorrow. Normally, the beasts drink water there, and there are monsters there in the morning and evening. Gather the most."

"That's right. There is a rocky mountain next to Senlv Lake called Tianxiu Rock. The terrain there is complicated. The carnivorous beasts used to rest there. We can go there and have a look." A bald hunter next to him added.

"Tianxiuyan?" Onda took a breath, grinning and scratching his ears and cheeks.

"Is there anything wrong? Is it dangerous?" Du Qiu, a fur merchant, saw Onda's strange appearance and couldn't help asking.

"Tianxiu Rock is near a crater, where the surface is covered with extremely brittle salt layers, and the volcanic rocks below are densely covered with gaps caused by high-temperature eruptions. Because of the salt, herbivores gather there to lick, But if you are not familiar with the ground conditions, it is easy to fall into a hidden fire pit, and if you fall into it, there is no need to save it, it must be burned to ashes, and we usually don’t go there when hunting.” Onda said with a bitter face.

"It's okay, we're just observing from the outside, presumably those huge beasts won't go deep there." The hunter explained just now.

Li Yi casually picked off a branch and leaf that crossed him, put it in his mouth and chewed slowly: "Yes, we came out to investigate, and everyone's safety comes first." ..

Chapter five hundred and thirtieth set up a few tents

In this way, the camp was not mentioned until the evening, and people were dull and speechless, so they went to bed early.On the second day, they got up early and went on their way. At sunset, a group of people came to Senlv Lake. Senlv Lake was like a huge blue mirror spread in the boundless Ebe forest. The lake could not be seen at a glance. As vast as the sea, there are snow-white flower rain stones all over the lake. When the sun sets, the lake surface is sparkling, and a row of continuous stone mountains can be vaguely seen in the distance. Ang Da pointed to the mountain and said: "That is Tianxiu Rock, It will take a day and a half to get around the lake, so we will camp by the lake tonight, get a good night's sleep, and check it out tomorrow, if there is still no movement, we can only go back home."

It was night, a few tents were set up by the lake of Senlv, and a group of people ate around the fire. More than [-] wildebeests were tied to the tree closest to the tents. The wildebeests were quietly gnawing on the grass on the ground. The sky was dark tonight. The sky is full of terrible clouds.

"Brother Li Yi, come on, I won't see you eating for a day, it won't work, my body won't be able to bear it." Du Qiu handed over a piece of dried meat, "Thank you, no need, I'm not hungry yet." Li Yi smiled Shaking his hand refused.

The four eyes of Onda and his hunter friend looked around like beasts in the dark night.This is the unique vigilance of old hunters. Onda listened to the movement of the forest, and after a long time, he kneaded the food in his hand and said: "Oh, this forest is as dead, there is no sound at all, when I first entered the forest, there were birds and insects chirping." , but now I can't even hear a bug's cry..."

Li Yi has already noticed this, "I'll watch the night tonight, you all have a good sleep."

Du Qiu shook his head and said, "You're so thin, you'd better rest first, and watch the night in the second half of the night. I have a lot of people, let them watch the night before." I'm worried when I look at it." Onda continued, the gods are generally about three meters tall, and Li Yi is only [-] meters tall. In their eyes, he is like a dwarf.Li Yi couldn't make excuses, so he had to agree.

The night was quiet, except for the dark clouds, only a few coughs from the night watchmen could be heard. Li Yi sat cross-legged and slowly practiced his exercises. The quietness and boringness of the night made people feel unmotivated, just in time to practice, so Look at the nose with the eyes, watch the heart with the nose, and the mind gradually sinks into silence.

After a long time like this, Li Yi suddenly woke up, his eyes flashed brightly, and he jumped out of the tent, only to see blue light and shadows flashing in the sky, and the night watchman fell to the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. "Who is pretending to be a ghost! Come out!" Li Yi yelled, and opened his mouth to spray out the sword light. The sword light burst out with dazzling light, illuminating the entire lakeside.

Those blue shadows were shot by the light of the Juetian sword, and quickly retreated towards Tianxiuyan as if frightened. Everyone was awakened by Li Yi's loud shout, and jumped out of the tent with weapons. Li Yi quietly put away the flying sword and walked to the night watchman. The man just passed out, and he was relieved, "The wildebeests are all missing." Onda strode over with a machete, and said with a dark face.

"Little brother Li Yi, what did you see?" Du Qiu asked with his upper body naked. ..

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"I can't see clearly, I only saw some blue shadows, and when I came out, they had already flown away." Li Yi frowned.

Aside, a hunter has already woken up the fainted vendor, "Old Hei! What's going on, what happened? Why are the wildebeests gone! Do you see what it is!" Du Qiu said harshly, these wildebeests are very Expensive, losing all the horses means that his horse team will be disbanded, and the loss is too great.

"Ghost... ghost... oh my God..." The vendor called Lao Hei was trembling all over, his eyes were slack, and he repeated these few words back and forth. Called you to watch the night, when the mother took you into the team, she claimed to be good at kung fu, and was invincible all over the world, but my wildebeest is gone, so I can’t explain why! I’ll kill you!”

Old Hei was dizzy, but his emotions stabilized, and he still said in a terrified tone; "Boss Du! Those things are not humans, gods, they must be demons, yes! The mayor said that Ebu The forest seals the devil..." Du Qiu was slapped again, and shouted: "I ask you what you saw!"

Old Hei cried and said, "I don't know what it is. I was urinating by the lake at that time, and I saw a few shadows on the other side of the lake. They were green and glowing. I thought it was the swamp gas at the bottom of the lake. Fire, so I ignored it, who knew that thing was extremely fast, and it came close in the blink of an eye, and I felt cold all over, so I didn't know anything, boss, I didn't talk nonsense, you have to believe me!"

Du Qiu pushed Lao Hei away, sat down and panted heavily, tilted his head and looked at Ang Da and said nothing, Ang Da glanced at him, discussed with the four hunters in a low voice, and said: "This is not something we can do." I understand, I have been hunting in this big forest for more than ten years, and I have never encountered such a strange thing. More than [-] wildebeests can disappear under our noses without making a sound, no matter whether they are human or not. Ghost, we are powerless to deal with it, I think it is better for us to return to Duling Town."

Du Qiu knew that this was the only way to go. At the beginning, he came out and said beautiful words, but in his heart he still wanted to find the beast, take advantage of it first, and make a lot of money. Now it seems that this loss is a big one. , sighed and said: "Don't sleep tonight, everyone be smart, don't talk, fuck, I really... oh!"

Li Yi didn't speak for a while, but in his heart he recalled the classics he had read before, thinking about what could turn into a green shadow and snatch a wildebeest. After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't figure it out. Said: "That's right, let's get through tonight like this first, and organize the team to go back to town tomorrow morning."

Everyone went back to the tent silently to clean up and rest. Li Yi grabbed Ang Da and Du Qiu and said, "I will bid farewell to the two brothers tonight. I decided to go to the sky and repair the rock by myself. You go back on your own, don't worry about me."

"You're crazy! I can't watch you die, you have to go back with us!" Ang Da widened his four eyes, staring at Li Yi whose head only reached his waist, and said angrily.

"Yes, what Lao Ang said is right. You have seen it too. These ghosts can take away so many wildebeests without making a sound. Are you able to deal with it? Listen to me, go back together and report to the officer Home, His Majesty the Emperor will definitely send troops to find out." Du Qiu also echoed. ..

Chapter five hundred and thirtieth: turn around and leave

Li Yi said with a smile: "Thank you two big brothers for your concern. I have made up my mind. These things are not hurtful, and there must be no other malicious intentions. I must go to investigate clearly, so let's go." , turned around and left.

"No! You go back with us, I can't watch you die!" Seeing that he couldn't understand him, Ang Da opened his big hand and grabbed Li Yi's shoulder, trying to take him away by force.

However, Li Yi dodged sideways as if his eyes were open behind his back, and his right index finger tapped lightly on the back of Onda's hand. Onda immediately felt numb all over his body like an electric shock, and looked at Li Yi in amazement while holding his hands in pain. Li Yi turned his head Smiling, walking non-stop along the lakeside towards Tianxiu Rock, I saw Li Yi walking at an extremely leisurely pace, but at an extremely fast speed, before he knew it he was [-] meters away, and the figure gradually disappeared.

Ang Da and Du Qiu stood and looked at him for a long time before he came back to his senses. After a long time, Du Qiu said: "This little brother...seems to be a mysterious guy." Ang Da nodded, "Forget it, forget about him, Let's pack up and go back overnight, anyway, there are no birds or beasts at night, so we don't think there will be any danger along the way, alas." After finishing speaking, everyone hastily packed up the tent, discarding the odds and ends, and walked on their way. .
