Chapter 124: A Path Opened
At night, under the large tent, six people were warming themselves around a campfire.
"So, what are you going to do now?"
Aratake Ichito sat cross-legged beside the campfire, the flickering flames making his face flicker.
Fredette sat on the other side of the campfire, wiping the giant sword in his hand and sighing.
"Understand we should try again in the morning. We can't just sit here and wait for death."
Clancy said with a look of grief and indignation, "If we can get back alive, I must buy ten... no, twenty copies of the map!"
"Stop setting flags for me!"
Arata Ichito rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "What do you mean by if you can go back? Do you want to die so badly? Remember, you can definitely go back!"
Lin Xingyue took out some dry food and water from her backpack and handed them to everyone. When she handed her hand to Huang Long Yidou, he waved his hand.
"Okay, you guys eat it. If I were starving to death, this little bit of food wouldn't even be enough to keep me alive. Don't forget, my body is different from yours. Eat quickly, and I'll take you out tomorrow."
"Oh! Great, we can go out now!"
Clancy immediately shouted with joy.
But Leshika poured cold water on him. He said softly, "Calm down, Clancy. Have you forgotten how Mr. Yidou met us?"
"Yes... yes." Clancy immediately lowered his head.
"Oh, I give up. You are really a funny guy. You change your expression faster than me."
Arata Ichito laughed and teased, then said,
"But don't worry, I have a special way to find a way out. As long as you follow me, I guarantee we will get out."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned their eyes to Arata Ichito.
"Mr. Yidou, what you said... is it true?"
Fredette asked excitedly.
Arata Ichito stretched lazily, "It couldn't be more true. You can rest assured."
"Yeah yeah yeah! We can go out now!"
As expected, it was Clancy again who was cheering loudly and excitedly.
This silly boy!
Fredette gnashed his teeth in anger. He said to Arata Ichito with an embarrassed look, "Ha, ha ha ha, it's normal for Clancy to be a little excited after learning that he can go out. It's just that I'm sorry to embarrass you, Mr. Ichito."
Arata nodded and said, "That's true. I always laugh when I see him. After a while, I'm used to it. Don't take it too seriously."
"Hey, Captain, everyone told us not to take it too seriously. Why are you forcing a smile like that? It's really ugly."
Clancy said this with a smile, not noticing the crazy looks his teammates were giving him or Fredette's increasingly dark face.
"Hey? Captain, what happened to you? Your face looks so dark, is it because..."
"Clancy, sometimes keeping your mouth shut is a virtue."
Fredette interrupted him coldly.
"Really? But I feel..."
Clancy wanted to say more, but was immediately scared away by Fredette's murderous look when he turned his head.
Leshika held back her laughter, reached out her hand and pulled the panicked Clancy away.
The two girls also leaned together, covering their mouths and looking at him with giggles.
As luck would have it, Ara Taki Ichito sighed and said, "Oh, this is really embarrassing."
"Pfft..."
Slanklo finally couldn't hold it back anymore. Her shoulders trembled and intermittent laughter came out of her mouth.
"Pfft...hahahahaha!"
This smile immediately ignited the fuse of the explosive, and everyone laughed heartily, leaving only Fredette, whose face turned green, and Clancy, who looked confused.
For a moment, the whole tent was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
...............
The next morning...
There was no warm sunshine, nor soft air, but only heavy rain and rumbling thunder that I saw when I opened the tent.
Arata Ichito cursed God a few words and walked out of the tent.
Others also started to come out one after another. They were all wearing raincoats, so their clothes did not get wet.
After a while, all the tents and sundries were packed into backpacks, and everyone looked at Arakaki Ichito.
"Now that everyone is here, follow me."
Arata Ichito called out, then randomly chose a direction and went into the woods. The others looked at each other and followed suit.
Thick fog filled every corner, and the roars and wails of birds and beasts could be heard from time to time, making the silent woods full of gloom and terror.
The five people had clear division of labor, stood in a tight team, and followed closely behind Arawaki Ichito.
But they soon discovered something was wrong. The further they moved forward, the more obstacles there were ahead of them. The trees were also more numerous and denser, making it increasingly difficult for them to move forward.
This kind of situation...is obviously something that can only occur if you go deeper.
"Um, Mr. Ichito, are you sure this is the way out?"
Fredette asked uncertainly as he looked at the increasingly crowded path and densely packed trees.
Arata Ichito said without even turning his head, "Of course, don't worry, I will take you all back."
Although Fredette still had some doubts, seeing the other person's confident tone and knowing that he had no useful methods, he had no choice but to follow Ara Taki Ito's steps and go all the way to the end.
Twenty minutes later...
Arata Ichito and his group have arrived in front of a huge forest.
Every tree here is extremely thick and each one is more than 30 meters tall, almost twice as tall as the trees in the previous life, making it impossible to see the end of them at a glance.
At the same time, the gaps between them are extremely small. They are almost tightly attached to each other and airtight, not enough to allow a normal person to pass through.
When Fredette saw this, he sighed in disappointment, "Alas, this is the wrong road. We can't get in at all. Let's go back the same way while there is still time and find another one."
Arata Ichito smiled mysteriously at this time. He walked forward, stroked the rough trunk of the tree, and said slowly,
"No, no need to go back, I have found a way out."
turn up?
Everyone looked around and saw thick white fog and dense trees hidden in it. They couldn't figure out how to find a way out here.
"Hey! Everyone! Get behind me!"
At this moment, Aratake Ichito suddenly shouted.
Although everyone didn't understand what this operation was, they just did it obediently.
After saying this, Arotaki Ichito suddenly squatted down, clenched his left hand into a fist, and punched towards the base of the giant tree.
hum!
The fist created a sonic boom and hit the base of the giant tree like a missile.
boom!
With a loud bang like an explosion, the fist fell, blasting wood chips all over the sky. A large concave hole was hit at the bottom of the giant tree. At the same time, a "cracking" sound was heard, and then countless cracks appeared at the bottom along with the sound, and finally connected into a line, and fell down with a loud bang.
When the giant tree was about to fall, Aradaki Ichito opened his arms, hugged the tree, then adjusted his posture and lifted it up.
Finally, Arotaki Ichito threw it backwards, and the giant tree flew over everyone's heads and landed behind them, making a loud noise and raising a cloud of dust.
"Follow me, I'll lead the way."
Arata Ichito said calmly.
Everyone turned around in amazement and found that the space in front of Arata Ichito was actually quite open!
The way out is to fight your way out, right?!
