Chapter 72: Ghosts and Phantoms

After entering the forest Ren Xiaosu deliberately paid attention to whether there were any traces of struggle, because the mystery of the disappearance of those two private troopers last night had not yet been solved, so Ren Xiaosu wanted to see what kind of accidents had happened to those two people.

A heavy rain had washed away the footprints of those two men, which made it very difficult for Ren Xiaosu to search for traces.

Without footprints, then one could only observe the leaves and branches of the trees.

The density of this forest is extremely high, under the huge canopy are dense shrubs, two people want to pass through the forest will inevitably step on some branches and leaves, this is the rain can not be washed away.

Ren Xiaosu followed some slightly broken branches to look for, the results of this trace only lasted for more than ten meters and then disappeared.

Xu Xianchu asked after realizing what Ren Xiaosu was looking for, “Did you find anything?”

“No,” Ren Xiaosu shook her head, “The traces ended abruptly here, and they didn’t go any further.”

These two people were bound to have fear in their hearts at that time, so it’s normal that they didn’t dare to walk too far away from the cavern, but it just doesn’t make sense ah, those two people were a dozen meters away from the cavern at that time, and if an accident happened here, it’s impossible for the people in the cavern to not be able to hear it.

Even if there was a rain cover at that time!

So the biggest possibility is that the two people came here for convenience, and as a result, they encountered something that caught them off guard, and they didn’t even have a chance to make a sound!

Ren Xiaosu looked at the surrounding trees, those tree trunks didn’t even lose a piece of bark, there was no struggle, no struggle, nothing.

The fear of the unknown was the real fear.

“Let’s go,” Xu Xianchu said, “This situation makes it all the more important for us to have a safe campsite, even if we end the day’s journey early.”

Ren Xiaosu agreed with Xu Xianchu, “It’s best if it’s something similar to last night’s cavern, even though we don’t know what happened, since nothing happened to us in the cavern, it’s best if we can find a similar cavern to camp in tonight.”

The sky didn’t clear up after the rain, and it might rain again at some point. As the saying goes, an autumn rain is a cold rain, and this rain also temporarily suppressed the dry heat when approaching the volcano cluster.

A group of people walking hard in the forest, Ren Xiaosu suggested Xu Xianchu to go to the place where there are no puddles, this year a random ants have become as big as the belly of a finger, even the human face bugs that kind of ghosts have appeared, this time this thing got into the locusts and this kind of thing, it may be able to kill people.

The clothes they passed on can’t block the mouthparts of the locusts.

“You guys say how can bugs grow so big ah,” Ren Xiaosu curiously said, “human face bug this thing in the end what is a thing?”

Xu Xianchu thought for a moment and said, “No matter how weird the human-faced bugs are, they can’t escape the limitations of the insect class, right? Their body structure destines them to not be able to have a huge size like mammalian creatures, and their oxygen supply is completely unable to keep up. That’s why I suspect that there is a high percentage of oxygen in the air here to allow them to grow. Have you noticed, although our bodies are tired, we are in good spirits and our minds are clearer, this is clearly the reaction when we inhale oxygen.”

Ren Xiaosu listen to Xu Xianchu so analyze feel also in the right place, not only is the reason for evolution, but also a bit of scientific reasoning ……

“Wait,” Ren Xiaosu froze for a moment, “Oxygen is more because the plants are also mutating and evolving, the plants near our barriers have also thrived a bit ah, so will there be a pest infestation or something like that outside in the future?”

“Most likely,” Xu Xianchu said.

The difference in everyone’s physical strength could be seen in the midst of the march, Ren Xiaosu was very relaxed, his current physical strength had no pressure to travel across the forest, and he didn’t feel tired at all.

Although Xu Xianchu was a Transcendent, his physical strength didn’t seem to have improved much, Xu Xianchu himself admitted that his physical strength had been gradually increasing since he became a Transcendent.

But it seemed to be a slow growth process, so Xu Xian Chu’s physical quality was not strong enough to be the same as Ren Xiaosu.

Xu Xianchu said, “Ever since I awakened and became a Transcendent, I’ve realized that every time my physical exercise reaches its limit, my physical quality will grow again.”

Ren Xiaosu thought to himself that there was still this, could he not try it himself in the future? But that would have to wait until he returned to the market town, challenging the limits here might kill him a bit fast.

Liu Bu and Luo Xinyu, Wang Lei three people on the miserable, their clothes are a little torn, out of the barriers when they are all white and clean, and now the face of the black and Ren Xiaosu is almost the same.

But they don’t dare to fall behind, because they are afraid that Ren Xiaosu, Xu Xianchu, Yang Xiaoguan will not wait for them, then waiting for them only death.

At this moment, Ren Xiaosu was most surprised by Yang Xiaoguan, he suddenly realized that although Yang Xiaoguan was also tired, but her condition was much better than Xu Xianchu’s. At this moment, Ren Xiaosu suddenly realized that Yang Xiaoguan was also tired.

At this moment, Ren Xiaosu suddenly saw the gray shadow in Xu Xianchu’s body walk out, Ren Xiaosu immediately stared at the guard, he thought Xu Xianchu was discovering some danger.

As a result, he saw Xu Xianchu climb onto the gray shadow’s back as if no one else was there, letting the gray shadow carry him on its back!

This scene gave Ren Xiaosu a dumbfounded look, this was fucking cheating!

Ever since Xu Xianchu exposed himself as a Transcendent, Xu Xianchu had become more and more fond of using his abilities, before that, he was used to hiding, so sometimes he couldn’t even think of using his abilities.

This gray shadow’s physical quality is twice as much as Xu Xian Chu’s, walking in this forest is like walking on the ground, if not Ren Xiaosu doesn’t want to reveal that he has duplicated Xu Xian Chu’s shadow thing, Ren Xiaosu himself would like to use the shadow to carry himself on his back to walk!

Liu Bu, Luo Xinyu and Wang Lei three people simply despair, really more people than people, why they have not awakened to become a transcendentalist ah!

Suddenly Xu Xian Chu’s gray shadow stopped in front of him, this time Ren Xiaosu really tensed up as he noticed that Xu Xian Chu’s muscles were all tensed up, just like a cat with fried fur!

Only to see Xu Xian Chu slowly getting down from the gray shadow’s back to prevent himself from dragging down the gray shadow’s speed, he whispered, “Look ahead.”

Ren Xiaosu looked towards the obscure and gloomy woods in front of him, which were densely shadowed by the dense foliage, as if there was something white right in front of them.

“What …… is that?” Liu Bu trembled and asked, when he asked he had subconsciously hidden behind Luo Xinyu and Wang Lei, hiding at the very back of the team.

Xu Xian Chu took a closer look, he hesitated for a moment and said, “Look guys, does that white shadow look like a woman in white clothes, scratching the trees?”

Ren Xiaosu’s sweat hairs all stood up, this scene was too bizarre!
