The gluttonous dragon starts from the plane of hell

Chapter 213 The Vanishing Tribe

As an [outsider], Bercy felt after coming to the Anaconda Forest. His evaluation of the Anaconda Forest is...

【forest】

Hahaha, that's right...it's the forest.

Although it is strange to describe a forest with a non-adjective like [forest], Bercy really thinks so in his heart.

This is a super super super super big forest.

Except for plants and some familiar and unfamiliar animal friends, except for fungi, he has never seen other creatures.

In other words... no trace of intelligent life.

Although Triestoran had been leading the way, Belshe felt a little guilty when she saw the identical plants and roads around her.

【Tristoran...do you remember Lu? 】

Seven Island Semu seems to have similar thoughts to Bercy, she looks left and right and feels that the environment is not recognizable at all.

Could Tristoran be leading the way indiscriminately?
"Well, although I've been away for a while, the surrounding plant species haven't changed much...if I remember correctly."

Tristoran, who said so, walked lightly on the grass in the forest... her feet stepped on the grass, but she didn't break it.

No matter how slender and light Tristoran's body is as an elf, it is not so light that it seems to be able to do light work.

What's more, Tristoran has abdominal muscles, and her body looks healthier compared to the [slender] like the mage girl.

This particularity of not harming plants comes from the Wood Elf's [Extreme Natural Covenant], so that it will not violate the covenant for reasons such as stepping on green grass.

"If you go along this road for a while, you will arrive at my tribe."

Saying so, Triestoran pointed to the jungle in front of her that looked no different from the surrounding forests.

"..."

Shu Beierxi said bluntly, he didn't see any place that could be called "road", let alone "following the road".

However, Seven Island Semu found some clues. She looked at the inconspicuous soil color on the grass between the trees.

[The roads you are talking about are these animal ways? 】

Seven Island Semu asked this, and then got Trisdolan's nod as an affirmative answer.

Beast way... As the name suggests, it is the path of wild beasts.

Whether it is a mouse or a rabbit, or a relatively large creature, during activities, it usually chooses a fixed route to walk.

Or the gap between specific trees, or near the junction between boulders and the earth, over time, animal paths will be formed.

That is, some relatively sparse grass.

……

As if seeing Bercy's doubts, Da Zhuang helped to explain: "This is the road to the Anaconda Forest..."

"Only in the tribe, stone slabs or stones will be paved. Except for the tribe, even if a stone road is paved in the wild, it will soon be destroyed by wild beasts."

Regarding Da Zhuang's words, Triestoran nodded to show that he was right.

"Mr. Da Zhuang knows the Anaconda Forest very well... Well, I really miss it, the feeling of stepping on the pebbles with bare feet."

As Triestoran said, she looked very emotional, more or less with a touch of homely feeling... right?

When Bercy was thinking this way, Tristoran suddenly stopped in her tracks, and she looked around with a dignified expression.

"Not right."

For her words, the three of them immediately entered the alert.

something wrong? !Is there an enemy?

Belhe, who made such a judgment, immediately accumulated the dragon's breath, and the purple-black flame leaked out from his mouth little by little, and then burned the grass under his feet.

Although it is said to set fire to the mountain, sit in prison and wear it.

But now I can't care so much...

But something is really wrong... The forest seems a little too quiet, is there another killer coming to kill me?
Just like the previous Ex-Machinas?
Thinking of this, Bercy and Seven Island Semu also began to search the forest around the enemy, Da Zhuang also closed his eyes, and started his own perception.

If Tristoran's eyes are not broken, you can probably see... a circle of ripples that are similar to but different from magic power,

The ripples spread around Da Zhuang, looking for possible enemies, but they found nothing.

Some hesitant Da Zhuang raised his head, his [Vibration] failed for the first time, and the opponent's concealment level was unexpectedly good.

Is it the sixth order?Seventh step?

I don't know...but how did Tristoria feel it?Is it out of familiarity with the environment of the boa boa forest?correct……

"Birds... and insects singing."

Da Zhuang said softly, he seemed to have realized something... Logically speaking, the forest should be filled with the sounds of various animals.

But it didn't.

Not only that, but the other wild animals I saw along the way seemed to be in a hurry, just like seeing a predator.

So... where is the enemy?

None of the three were sure about this, and they quickly tightened their formation, watching Tristoran and waiting for her answer.

"Huh? What birds and insects are singing?"

However, Triestoran asked so easily.

"..."

"???"

【? ? ? 】

"Isn't there an enemy?"

When Bercy asked, he began to wonder if he had misunderstood, and asked with gestures, "What did you say [wrong] just now?"

Triestoran was a little confused about Bercy's question: "What enemy? I don't feel the enemy?"

【ah?What's wrong with that? 】

"Oh, I'm wrong... because I seem to be going the wrong way."

Tristoran looked a little ashamed when she said that, she covered her face in embarrassment: "It may be because of vision problems."

At first, it seemed to be the way back to the tribe, but after walking halfway, I found that something seemed wrong... It seemed that I was going the wrong way.

After all, if you come here, you should be able to see the tribe's sentry tower, but now there is nothing.

Tristoran looked very hesitant, looking at the sun in the sky to judge the direction: "In the east...bypassing the Sancha Mountain...it feels right."

Although I don't know where Tristoran's tribe is, it seems that the crisis has been lifted, which is really gratifying.

Fortunately, it was a false alarm.

But... why can't I hear the chirping of birds and insects?
Amidst the doubts of the three, Bercy noticed a trembling squirrel lying on a branch of a coniferous plant.

A few squirrels looked pitiful.

What are they afraid of?

Bercy thought about it, and quickly got the answer from their eyes and emotions... Nima!It's me!
"Wait, are you afraid of me? That's why the bugs and birds stopped calling?"

Bercy was a little ashamed. Although he was a young dragon, although Longwei was useless to normal people, it was still possible to scare monster insects and small animals...

【Long Wei! 】

"It's true, I don't know when the extra Longwei skill...well, I got it a long time ago, and it was used to scare the devil insects before."

"Look, as my age and level grow, has the power and range of Longwei also increased? I'll see if I can control it myself."

Belcher sighed, closing his eyes and strenuously trying to take back his Longwei: "Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!"

[Smelly Longwei! 】

Although Semu of the Seven Islands complained, and although the sound of Bercy's hard-working roar was indeed strange, but... it actually worked!

The deterrent power belonging to the giant dragon gradually disappeared in the forest.

Instead, there was a tentative chirping...don't know what it was, but it sounded loud.

"Twitter twitter~twitter twitter~~twitch!!"

【…】

"That's the call of a tongue-in-cheek."

When Da Zhuang said this, he seemed to have a certain understanding of the animals near the Luobo Forest: "I also think it's very noisy."

"..."

Bercy was also silent for a while, and then silently released Long Wei, the bird's voice disappeared immediately.

Well, if you put it this way...

"Hey ah!"

Belhe drank lightly, and took Longwei back.

"twitter!"

Longwei is released!

"..."

Long Wei took it back!

"jiji~"

Longwei released!
"..."

After cycling a few times, Belsy learned to quickly switch between the Longwei state and the normal state, and the speed gradually became faster.

The simplest example is to let those birds have no time to [twitter], but just [just because], they immediately become silent.

The chirping sound stuck in their throats, like a pinched shi(t)lime.

After a period of time, even if Belsie withdrew Long Wei, those birds didn't bother to sing anymore... really speechless.

Multi-tongued oriole: lower head dragon, steamed mullet.

[Brother, why are you torturing the bird... Hahaha, I laughed so hard. 】

"Hahahaha, that's too funny."

Amidst the nonsense between Bercy and Seven Island Semu, Tristoran, whose eyesight was not good, finally confirmed something.

"found it."

Tristoran, who was a distance away from the animal path, said so. She looked at the wreckage made of a pair of logs and sticks, with a serious expression on her face.

"I don't seem to be going the wrong way..."

Tristoran, who said so, stretched out her hand to caress the broken wood in front of her, and looked at the obvious scorched black on it.

"This is the remnant of the tribe's outpost... If we say that we have arrived here, it proves that we are very close to the tribe."

Tristoran looked around in a little confusion, and she was full of confusion: "If this is the case, then there should be many people from the tribe moving around."

But I haven't seen any intelligent creatures along the way. It can even be said that I looked forward and let my eyes pass through the gap between trees...

There are no signs of intelligent life.

"Is the family relocated?"

Bercy asked this question, while Tristoran shook her head to express her ignorance: "I'm not sure."

Moreover, the possibility of family relocation is really low... After her family was destroyed, the two sisters defected to a large wood elf tribe.

If the whole family relocates, the manpower and material resources that need to be consumed are a terrifying figure.

To be honest, Triestoran had a bad feeling.

"Go to the direction of my tribe first, maybe you can find some clues... I hope everyone in the tribe is okay."

Tristoran said, and began to lead the way in front.

"..."

Bercy stared at the scorched black marks on the ground...and then looked around the wooden ruins.

The surrounding trees were more or less scorched.

Moreover, he didn't know if it was Bercy's illusion, but he always felt that he could smell a familiar smell.

Well, if it was arson, why didn't it turn into a forest fire?

Thinking of this, Bercy looked at the place where the dragon's breath flowed down from his mouth before... There were genuine traces of flame spreading.

wait, no!
Belhe looked over there, the power of his dragon's breath couldn't be so small...the flame like a necrosis couldn't be extinguished so quickly.

With this thought in mind, Belshe looked at the place where the dragon's breath dropped before with probing eyes, and found something.

"Unexpectedly... the surrounding vegetation actually avoided my dragon's breath on its own initiative. The forest of Luobo Forest seems to be alive."

Belhe judged this, and he looked at the ruins of the watchtower behind him... In this way, the watchtower was indeed destroyed by flames.

The familiar smell in the air...is definitely the smell of sulfur.

【Brother is coming soon, Tristoran is waiting for us. 】

Under the urging of Semu of the Seven Islands, Bercy finally reacted, nodded, and followed behind Tristoran.

"Tristoran, I have discovered something."

Bercy said so, and he briefly talked about his discovery: "The destroyed sentry tower was destroyed in an [explosion], and I smelled sulfur."

【The smell of sulfur... Isn't that related to hell? 】

Yes, just like Nanaoshima Semu said, if you talk about flames and stones, then you feel that you have something to do with hell.

Triestoran was also thinking... Is the stone yellow?In this way, is the disappearance and disappearance of the tribe related to the melting phenomenon?

Triestoran didn't know this.

Although the phenomenon of melting now occurs most frequently and in the largest scale in the Kingdom, melting phenomena do occur to a greater or lesser extent within the borders of other countries.

So what does this have to do with my tribe?

Full of doubts, Triestoran had already seen the outer wall of the tribe she was familiar with, as well as the arrow towers guarding both sides of the outer wall.

However, there is no one in the arrow tower at this moment.

There is no one around the tribe at all...

……

No, nothing but buildings... no demons, nothing molten, a bit of sulfur smell, but no obvious signs of damage.

It seems that, apart from [Residents], this tribe and Tristoran and the other wood elves must have hardly changed before they disappeared.

"What is it all about..."

Tristoran said so to herself, and then worked hard with Da Zhuang to push open the somewhat dilapidated but still heavy gate of the tribe.

In the tribe, there are well-arranged houses, some beautiful farmland, creeks and waterwheels... everything is familiar.

but……

"Where did everyone... go?"

In Tristoran's soliloquy...the tribe was empty, so naturally it was impossible to respond.

"..."

[Be melted away? 】

"Is it molten?"
