Chapter 69 - 69 Muttering
69 Muttering
“Calling for backup? Yes… What happened to me?” Andre looked at Qing Niao’s behavior, then at his hand and touched his face.
However, even though it was clearly very strange, he did not notice it at all.
Fang Ping looked at Andre. His words sounded normal. Why did he not realize that there was something wrong with him?
“Tell me, what happened to me?”
“Wait a minute.” Qing Niao raised his left hand and clenched it into a fist. “There seems to be something. Did you guys hear it?”
!!
Fang Ping also vaguely heard the sound. He quickly used the special characteristics ability and finally received feedback. “That’s right. Some Elf Warriors are coming over. Qing Niao, I think it’s the Fireball Spell you used just now that attracted them.”
“From the sound of their footsteps, there are a total of eight of them. They’re very fast and are less than 200 meters away from us,” Andre said.
Everyone’s gazes focused on Andre again.
“Well, I don’t know how I heard that. Now isn’t the time to talk about it. Put the things away first. Jeanne, put out the fire.”
Fang Ping wanted to say, ‘You’re more like an enemy now.’
After putting on his armor, he picked up the cross and carried his backpack. Fang Ping continued to use his characteristics to probe.
“They should have discovered us. They’ve surrounded this place.”
“Above my head. There’s a sound above my head.”
Hearing Andre’s voice, Fang Ping looked up. There were layers of branches and leaves above his head.
“Be careful, squat down quickly. There are Elven Archers.” He heard Andre’s voice again.
Fang Ping quickly squatted down. “Armor Forbidden Spell.”
Dududu
The sound of arrows piercing into wood rang out continuously. Fang Ping could feel that these arrows had reached the vicinity.
“They’re climbing trees.” Andre was still reporting on his surroundings.
“Let’s light the fire. It’s too dark for us.”
“There shouldn’t be a need. I’m coming.” Just as Andre finished speaking, he heard the sound of tree branches breaking above his head.
A huge black shadow appeared above its head. Behind it was bright sunlight.
Fang Ping narrowed his eyes. His eyes adjusted to the sunlight. As expected, it was that familiar figure again.
A Flaming Chimera.
The lion’s mouth opened and spat out a huge fireball that smashed into the tree beside it.
“Ahhh!”
Fang Ping saw a few Elves fall from the tree.
The eagle head also opened its mouth and spat out black balls that flew towards the tree on the other side. Another few Elves fell.
With the help of the light, Fang Ping could see many Elf Warriors being hit. They got up from the ground and disappeared into the Dark Forest.
As expected of an Elf Warrior with heavy armor and magic armor characteristics.
The Flaming Chimera stopped on the branch above. A figure jumped down from him.
It was indeed Ivan.
“I saw the signal the moment I arrived. Why is it you again?” Ivan glanced at Fang Ping.
The last time they were stationed in the hot spring forest, it was also Fang Ping’s first team who sent out the distress signal.
He shifted his gaze to Andre. Ivan was stunned for a moment before his figure suddenly accelerated.
“It’s me, it’s me. I’m Andre!!!”
Ivan had already appeared in front of Andre, his fist facing his head.
The sun shone down from above. Ivan’s fist stopped in front of Andre. The wind from the punch pushed the short hairs off his face.
“Are you Andrei?”
“It’s me. I’m Andre. I don’t know what’s wrong with me,” Andre quickly explained. He also realized that something was wrong with him.
Ivan retracted his fist and glanced at Andre again.
“Let’s go back first. I can’t stay here for too long. Let’s go.”
Walking up, the Flaming Chimera had already waited for a while.
Fang Ping had taken a plane before, but this was the first time he had taken such a huge bird.
The back of the Chimera was very wide. It was soft to step on. Moreover, it was covered in a large plate armor. It grabbed the edge of the plate armor and was quite stable.
Andre was the last to come up. He took the initiative to stand at the furthest position, a distance away from Fang Ping and the others.
The five of them were still carrying backpacks. They weighed nearly a thousand catties. However, the Demon Flaming Chimera only flapped its wings gently and flew up.
It flew out of the hole that had just made.
Fang Ping quietly grabbed the plate armor, but he realized that it was exceptionally stable. Even though the Chimera was flapping its wings continuously, it did not sway at all.
He did not have to worry about falling down. Fang Ping looked at the dark green forest below him and the endless sea of green trees. He did not know what was hidden in it.
“Can you tell me what’s wrong with me?”
“Don’t you think your hands are strange?” Fang Ping pointed at the wings of the Chimera. “They’re quite similar to his.”
“Hands? They do look a little similar, but aren’t my hands like this to begin with?”
Hearing Andre say this, Ivan’s expression was serious. “What’s his situation? Tell me in detail.”
“I’ll explain,” Fang Ping said after exchanging glances.
“In the beginning, I found an Elven Archer. Then, Andre followed the direction I pointed and killed it.
However, that Elf looked very strange…
“Later, Jeanne lit the firewood, and we realized that Andre had become like this.”
Ivan rubbed his chin. “Did you touch or eat anything?”
“No, other than that Elven Archer, I didn’t touch anything. There’s also food. I also ate the dry food bought from the team,” Andre replied from afar.
Fang Ping added, “By the way, his hearing seems to have become very good too.”
“Has anyone restarted the forbidden experiment?” Ivan murmured.
“The three of you, I’ll send you to York Town. Andre, come with me.”
Outside York Town, Fang Ping and the other two got off the Demon Flame Chimera. Ivan left with Andre.
“Fang Ping, do you think Andre is alright?” Qing Niao had been watching them leave.
“I think so.”
Jeanne looked at it, then walked toward the town. “He’s number one in the Elite Team. Ivan will probably find a way to cure him.
“I only earned one silver coin this time. It’s really little.”
“Yeah.”
He did not know what was going on with Andre.
“Let’s go. I believe he’ll be fine.” She pulled Qing Niao. “Let’s go back and wait for news.”
On the way back, she even met a familiar person.
“Captain Fang Ping, what a coincidence to meet you again.”
It was Ken on the ox cart.
Ken must have just come out of town. There was nothing on the ox cart. He was alone.
“I just rented an ox cart. We’re quite lucky this time to have obtained an Excellent-grade Earth Slash Skill Crystal. If we have a chance next time, we’ll work together again.”
Fang Ping smiled cooperatively. An Excellent-level skill cost at least 9,000 copper coins. He had indeed profited this time.
“Captain Fang Ping, why did you come out so quickly? Did you gain anything? Eh, I remember there were four of you back then…”
At this point, Ken seemed to have thought of something. He put on an understanding expression and patted Fang Ping’s shoulder. “Good luck. You’ll get used to this after seeing it too many times.”
