Hunter × Hunter: The Seven Deadly Sins

The doctor looked at the struggling soldier who was entangled in a large number of branches, gritted his teeth, took out a military shovel from his backpack and rushed up, and swung it down towards the branches covered with flowers.

puff!

But due to his lack of strength, he didn't cut off completely with a shovel, but only cut off one or two roots. When he wanted to swing the shovel again, a large number of branches wrapped around him like in the previous scene, together with the military shovel in his hand.

Zheng~

Suddenly, white sword lights flashed, and when the doctor came back to his senses, Captain Olsen had already left the Huahai range with him in his arms.

"Ah uh..."

But the soldier who was responsible for protecting the doctor's safety before was still entangled by a large number of branches, and there was a slight "click" sound all over his body. The soldier's eyes were wide open, and soon he fell silent.

"Damn it!"

Captain Olsen looked gloomy as he looked at the sea of ​​flowers that suddenly rioted.

"Pyroman!"

Captain Olsen yelled, and immediately ten burly soldiers with military flamethrowers rushed forward and pressed the switch towards the rioting sea of ​​flowers ahead.

boom!

A string of flames spewed out from the muzzle of the gun instantly, and the sea of ​​flowers immediately burst into flames. The countless flower branches tried to break through the range of the flames, but after struggling for a while, they turned into ashes and dissipated in the flames.

"Fortunately, we just entered here, otherwise..."

Captain Olsen was afraid that if they entered the sea of ​​flowers completely, the army of thousands of people would be dispersed immediately. At that time, even using a flamethrower will only speed up the demise of one's own people.

At this time, Yilumi and the others were in the Huahai area.

"Send a small falcon drone to the rear to confirm the situation."

Illumi looked at Pride, who tapped his chin and flicked his fingers on the screen.

Click!

Among the 30 Avengers soldiers, a gap was cracked above the supply backpack of one of them, and it slowly opened.

hum~

A small falcon drone took off slowly, circled over everyone's heads, and "swished" into an afterimage and disappeared instantly.

"These guys, what's in that super big backpack?"

Bi Yangde's team was surprised by this army again, they still have this thing in their backpacks? How many things did it contain?

"The army used flamethrowers, and the branches of Huahai are indeed attacking them. But with flamethrowers, there is no problem so far."

In less than five seconds, the situation of the investigation team in the rear was displayed on Pride's screen. Pride reported to Illumi according to the situation in the screen, and also told the other members present.

"Why didn't they attack us?"

Biyang De pinched his chin, his face contemplative.

"The reason is unknown, should we continue to move forward? Now that we know that these branches can move, if we continue to move forward, I am afraid we will encounter something."

Cervantes frowned and looked at Bijande. According to his cautious character, he should retreat to join the investigation team at the rear at this time, and analyze whether he can change the route according to the situation.

"Then go back."

Yilu Mi spoke, since he knew that there was danger in this sea of ​​flowers, he could not move forward, and would only encounter greater danger in the future.

"What? Just ignore them."

Glid showed displeasure on his face. He didn't want to care about the Kajin Empire investigation team. Anyway, they were just using the Kajin Empire's channel to go to the Dark Continent.

Now Enwei has figured out the transaction procedure between the Kajin Empire and [Gatekeeper] Zhijian, and they have successfully arrived in the Dark Continent,

Then the Kajin Empire is useless.

"The survey team and the army are still useful."

Kim Bradley cast a serious glance at Greed. There are many talents in the investigation team, and they may be useful in subsequent explorations, and an army of thousands of people can also play a powerful role in a crisis.

It's not that they have to put aside the relationship with the Kajin Empire's investigation team when they come to the Dark Continent. A better choice is to use each other.

Anyway, they have enough supplies and a lot of time, so they are not afraid of how much time will be wasted by detours.

"Since we didn't attack us, there must be a reason, maybe it has something to do with the number of people. We only have fifty people, but they are a thousand-member investigation team, maybe they are only attacked because they have too many people."

While Pride was speaking, he still looked down at the picture on the screen. The army had already withdrawn from the range of Huahai.

But for some reason, even when it was raining, the sea of ​​flowers was still burning wildly because of the flamethrower, which might cause serious forest fires.

"I think we're either going to get out of this forest as fast as we can, or we're going back now. The fire is going to grow so quickly it's too late."

Pride looked serious, and he raised the tablet in his hand for everyone to watch. Everyone in the hunter investigation team had good eyesight and could clearly see the sea of ​​flames on the screen, with hesitant expressions on their faces.

"let's go."

Without waiting for Biyang De to answer, Yilumi turned around and walked back.

"Biande..."

Cervantes looked at Biyangde with a questioning tone, but Biyangde did not respond, and walked directly to follow the pace of Yilumi and others. Seeing Billand's actions, Cervantes understood what he meant, and the fourteen people followed closely behind.

We are not rookie hunters, some words do not need to be said.

"The area of ​​the fire is getting bigger and bigger."

In three minutes, Yilumi and the others saw the raging forest fire ahead after only three minutes of walking. The flames even climbed along the thick trunk to the top.

Even with light rain now, it still cannot stop the spread of the fire.

"Strange, why are flowers burned?"

A hunter in the team noticed a strange phenomenon and couldn't help wondering.

After being reminded by him, others immediately noticed this strange phenomenon. Whether it was the trunk or the ground, it was those strange flowers that were burned instead of trees.

hiss!

Suddenly, there was a hissing sound from a distance, and a dinosaur-like monster that reached the height of an adult emerged from the sea of ​​flowers and rushed towards Yilumi and the others.

It is said to be like a dinosaur, which means that its physical characteristics are similar to dinosaurs, but behind its head is a structure that splits into petals, and it also presents various colors, just like petals in a sea of ​​flowers.

It was very fast, even faster than ordinary hunters, and it was about to rush to Yilumi and the others in an instant.

Puff puff……

But before it got close, five Avenger soldiers pulled the trigger at the same time, and a lot of blood burst out from the "dinosaur", and fell to the ground with a "bang", closed his eyes and stopped moving, dying.

"What kind of creature is this?"

Natalie, a biologist, was the first to step forward to observe it.

Hoarse~!

But I didn't expect that the creature was still alive. When Natalie approached it, a mouthful of green liquid suddenly spewed out from its mouth, splashing on Natalie's combat uniform.

hiss...

White smoke immediately rose from Natalie's combat uniform, mixed with an unpleasant stench.

"This liquid is corrosive!"

Natalie reacted quickly, immediately took off her coat and threw it on the ground, took out a pistol and "bang bang bang" and shot continuously at the head of the fallen creature until the magazine was empty.

hiss~

woo woo~

Chick ~ Chick ~

The scope of the fire is getting bigger and bigger, the originally humid air is rapidly becoming dry, more and more small creatures appear in this forest, and strange chirping sounds can be heard endlessly.

"This kind of thing is not important now, get out of here quickly."

Someone reminded that when everyone regained their senses, they must speed up their pace immediately. But the next moment, everyone stopped.

Boom...boom...boom...

Whether it was the front or the back, the left or the right, there was a deafening sound of footsteps everywhere, as if there were thousands of troops running.

clatter...

It was not the sound of rain, but a large number of raindrops on the leaves above the head were dripping densely on everyone's bodies and foreheads due to the vibration of the ground, sliding along the eyebrows, nose bridge, lips to the chin, and finally dripping to the ground.

"Hey, maybe some big monster is about to emerge?"

Glid looked excited, and the corner of his mouth smiled sinisterly.

He learned from Illumi's mouth and V5's written record of exploring the Dark Continent that the Dark Continent is extremely dangerous, but until the shock appeared, they were all safe and sound, and he was already impatient.

Now, finally, the situation that met his expectations appeared.

"Pride, did you see that?"

Yilumi looked at Pride with a solemn expression, and at this time the lady also had a serious expression, and handed the tablet to Yilumi for him to watch.

Yilumi took the tablet, and on the screen of the tablet computer, there was a spectacular picture above the forest, overlooking the entire forest. It was the picture of the small falcon drone flying to an altitude of up to 200 meters to investigate the vast forest where they were.

Boom...boom...boom...

In the picture, near the range of the forest fire, the branches of the towering trees suddenly vibrated. There must be a huge monster moving fast in the forest, but because the forest trees are too high, you can't see the bottom.

Didi...

Yilumi flicked the screen lightly with his fingers, and controlled the Falcon drone to fly to one of the areas where the vibrations were heard. As the height of the drone decreased, the angle of view continued to drop.

When the height was reduced to 20 meters, the target that caused the ground vibration finally appeared on the screen, a body full of bright flowers, all kinds of thick tree roots twisted and intertwined, forming a huge humanoid walking upright.

This kind of monster that walks upright is huge in size, with a height of more than ten meters by visual inspection, which can be called a "giant".

"This is... a tree man?"

"wrong……"

Yilumi frowned slightly. The "giant" in the picture has a lot of roots and flowers, which reminded Yilumi of a strange creature in a movie masterpiece in his previous life.

But when the picture is zoomed in, upon careful observation, it is found that under the body composed of tree roots, there are still flesh-and-blood tissues hidden.

"What do you see? Show me."

Seeing Yilumi's complexion suddenly changed, Biyang De leaned closer and stretched out his head, as if the two of them knew each other very well.

Illumi's face was flat and he didn't refuse.
