Chapter 92 - 91 – This Forest Is Infested With Monsters.
With the sudden onslaught we received, all the adventurers remained crouched without moving. We were looking desperately at the trees, but I could only feel someone's presence, couldn't see anyone.
"Listen, stay low and be very careful, maybe another attack like that could happen." I swallowed my saliva and started walking.
We left the adventurer body behind and moved on, we couldn't bring him with us, I'm sorry.
Everywhere we could hear the sounds of the trees swaying.
"Hewsung, what do you think that was about?" Edarlas approached.
"Aren't you feeling the presence of these things? They are hidden everywhere."
"What, are there monsters here? I thought it was a trap"
"I don't know if they're monsters or not, but they sure as hell don't want us here." I could feel the intention to kill coming from all sides, this sensitivity of mine helped me a lot.
"Can you know exactly where they are? We can try to attack them."
"I just know they're up in the trees, but they keep moving non-stop, we couldn't hit them easily." They are fast, at every moment I felt some of them passing us quickly.
They're jumping through the trees at the same speed as a wolf running through the ground, that's scary.
All adventurers were restless as our eyesight was very impaired. We couldn't see anything but tree trunks and leaves. There were so many leaves that it blocked our view from above.
So as much as the monsters continued to run, we couldn't see it. Of course, I had warned all adventurers about the monsters' presence, so they had redoubled their attention.
"Listen, let's try to go faster now, but be careful. Don't be frightened by their sound in the trees, just do something if you feel they might attack you, understand?"
The adventurers agreed.
"Maybe if we don't attack them, they can leave us alone." That was a very optimistic thought on my part.
"Guuuaarr~~" As soon as my speech ended, again a rope fell from the top of the trees, but this time it didn't come the same way. It descended directly towards the neck of one of the adventurers.
With no time to react, the rope wrapped itself around his neck and he was pulled upwards, his body disappears into the leaves of the trees a few meters high.
"Shit, these things are going to kill us." One of the nearby adventurers had tried to cut the rope, but the only thing damaged was his sword.
This rope was very strong, what is this thing made of?
"Don't despair, let's move forward carefully."
"Let's try to do something, we can use fire magic to burn all these trees." One of the adventurers said while smiling, he seemed sure he wanted to do this, is he an idiot?
"If the forest starts to catch fire, we would also be affected since we are in the forest. Also, these trees are very green, they wouldn't burn easily." Normally the driest leaves would burn easily.
"So what about trying to lure them in somehow to try to kill them? If we do nothing, we will be killed one by one." Ardlac looked confident that this would work.
But he was right, if we continued doing nothing inside the forest, these things would start attacking and killing each one of us, and from what's happened to us, I'm sure that wouldn't be too difficult.
"Okay, let's do this. But what do you have in mind? I don't think just screaming they would attract them."
"We're going to set the forest on fire, or somehow make them think we're going to do it."
"Did not quite understand."
"These things live here, they stay in the hidden trees all the time, if we threatened to burn the forest they wouldn't attack?"
"Or maybe it just makes them even angrier, and then they will kill us quickly. But let's keep walking while we think about what to do, if we just stand here we're going to get killed."
I didn't want to be stuck in the same spot, so I caught the attention of the other adventurers and we started walking again, this time being even more careful.
But it was scary not knowing where they were. We couldn't even see the shadow of the monsters that were up in the trees.
Seeing this, I started asking the adventurers that they could use wind magic to cut some branches off the trees.
"It might make them a little angry, but that way we can see what's up there." At least we wouldn't be burning the forest.
Soon after, adventurers who could use wind magic began to release a strong wind in the shape of a blade or even in the form of an arrow to cut the branches of trees.
We stood in one place as we fired magic non-stop, trees were being cut down quickly, leaves and branches falling in all directions.
YYYY~~
UAAAAAAAA~~
As soon as our vision started to get a little clearer, and we could see the tops of the trees, those things started screaming fiercely as they jumped around.
And after a few seconds, the path was clear and we could see those things that were up there.
"Shit, we're completely dead."
"Dude, this is scary."
"How are we going to get away from these things?" There they were, so many that I couldn't even count how many there were.
####
Many of them were on top of us.
We were looking at it not believing how many monsters were there, I couldn't feel that there were so many, this is insane.
They all had dark green skin and had a big tails. They had huge fangs like a wolf's, and their claws could also tear someone's flesh easily.
They were ugly, but what scared us the most was the amount of them, if they all got together to attack us, we would be killed in a few seconds.
"Let's take it easy, don't despair." I started walking slowly as I looked at all those monsters, I was in a cold sweat as I practically held my breath.
The monsters had already noticed our presence but remained silent just staring at us with their red eyes.
"Walk very slowly, don't show that you want to attack them, and don't show that you're scared either." We just had to do it.
Even if we used all our strength here, even me and two B-rank adventurers, we wouldn't be able to take it.
We continued walking slowly as we walked away from that place, in a short time we had already walked a considerable distance.
"What was that? What monsters were those?" One of the adventurers said in a low voice.
"I don't know, I've never seen something like that before, maybe it's a new species."
"I don't care what they are, I care how many monsters were there, what the hell was that?" One of the adventurers said while shaking, he was almost crying.
His formerly manly appearance was now destroyed.
"I don't know, but we can't do anything to beat these things."
"What do you mean. You're not an A-RANK adventurer? You should be strong enough to beat several B-rank adventurers in one fight."
"Did you see the number of monsters? That is just one tree, I wouldn't doubt that in this place there are more than a thousand of those things."
"You're exaggerating, maybe it's just those, and they were following us."
"Look at the size of this forest, this is impossible." After the little discussion, we started walking faster. I couldn't feel the presence of those monsters anymore, so taking advantage of the situation I started walking faster.
I wanted to get out of this forest as soon as possible, it sure as hell wasn't covering this whole place, there must be a way out.
"How much longer are we going to walk? This forest never ends."
"We have to take advantage of this opportunity, the monsters seem to have lost interest in us, they are not attacking and I don't even feel their presence," I said as I quickened my steps even more.
The adventurers weren't able to keep up with me very well, but they were trying very hard.
"Fortunately, I was afraid my head would also be ripped off."
"Dude, you better not say that, you're practically…" Before the adventurer finished his sentence, a rope came down and grabbed directly around his neck. This time he wasn't pulled, his head was ripped off instantly.
With that horrifying scene, some adventurers started to despair and run, it was a bad choice now.
