Chapter 213 First-order beast (13)

Behind the Venus Flytrap, there was a deep cave that could only be seen after bending over and digging it open. Lan Jin crawled on the ground and called out carefully, "Is there anyone there? Is there anyone asking for help?"

"Yes, I'm asking for help. Help me, my leg is broken and I can't get out."

The voice coming from the cave was sweet and delicate, and it felt like a young lady from some family who had been stranded outside and suffered a lot, which made people feel pity. Even though Lan Jin was a girl, she was no exception after hearing it.

But they were out looking for the members of the base team this time. What did they have to do with this young lady in distress? Lan Jin whispered to Brother Zhang, "Is this someone from our base? Brother Zhang, do you recognize this voice?"

It would be easy to explain if she knew her, but if she didn't, she would like to ask, why would a woman with such a delicate voice appear in this extremely cold and lush forest?

Sure enough, he was an acquaintance. Brother Zhang replied with a distressed look on his face, "Yes, he's a member of our base team."

However, when saying this, Zhang Ge's expression was obviously not very good. But the situation was urgent, and she was not a member of the base, so some things were not easy to ask. So she asked the girl in the cave: "Such a small hole, how did you crawl in?"

Or crawl in when there are so many Venus Flytraps outside.

The girl choked up and said, "I was caught by a Venus flytrap and brought all the way here. When it tried to eat me, I wounded it with a dagger. It was in pain and threw me to the ground. After I fell to the ground, I saw this cave and crawled in. But my leg is injured, and there are too many Venus flytraps outside. I can't get out at all. Please save me?"

After observing the surroundings of the cave for a moment, Brother Zhang said, "Wait a minute. This cave is too small. Even if we go in, we won't be able to get you out. Are you able to move? I'll lower a rope down. Grab the rope, preferably around your waist, and I'll pull you out."

As long as they could get out, no matter what method they used, the woman inside immediately agreed: "Okay, okay, I can move, it's just my leg that's injured."

Brother Zhang looked around and wanted to find someone to help, but there were still many Venus flytraps on the opposite side. Not only the Venus flytraps, but also the surrounding plants were in turmoil. Brother Zhang didn't know who to ask for help. Lan Jin said, "I'm very strong. I'll help you."

Zhang had no choice but to agree. He put down his backpack and pulled out a thick rope. He untied it and stretched it into the cave. The girl in the cave had been waiting for a long time. When she saw the rope, it was like seeing the light. She immediately pulled it down and tied one end of the rope around her waist. She shouted, "I've tied it. You can pull it. I'll try to climb too."

Hearing the girl's answer in the cave, Brother Zhang seemed to be relieved, then turned around and pulled the rope out with all his strength.

But unfortunately, even though Brother Zhang pulled with all his strength and his face turned red, the rope still didn't budge.

Lan Jin looked at it for a while, but she felt something was wrong. She asked, "What's wrong? Is it stuck?"

Brother Zhang shook his head, but he didn't loosen his strength at all.

Seeing this, Lan Jin hurried forward to help, grabbed the rope from below where Brother Zhang was holding it, and then used some force to pull the girl up, but still couldn't lift the girl much.

Lan Jin was very strong. Usually, even a little force she exerted was much greater than that of an adult man using all his strength. However, the situation now was that she had the strength of two adult men, but she couldn't pull a girl out of the hole. She asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Is the gap down there too small? Is it stuck?"

Lan Jin felt that if it hadn't been stuck, they would have been able to lift the girl up with their combined strength.

But when Brother Zhang heard this, he still just shook his head, because there were some things he really didn't know how to explain, and he had to explain them without hurting people's self-esteem.

Seeing Brother Zhang shaking his head, Lan Jin could only say, "Okay, I'll do my best."

Just when Brother Zhang was about to say that it would be useless even if both of us used all our strength, Lan Jin pulled the rope out a long way.

Seeing this, Brother Zhang didn't dare to relax at all. After both of them used all their strength, they actually got the person out of the cave after some time.

When Lan Jinsong looked back at the girl with relief, she suddenly froze in place. She also understood in an instant why Brother Zhang's face changed when he heard the voice, and why he said that the cave was obviously not very small, and why the girl was not angry after hearing it.

Because this girl is too fat... too fat. If you have to compare, Lan Jin dares to say that this girl's weight is probably heavier than her and Brother Zhang combined.

In addition, the girl was not short, and to be honest, Brother Zhang alone was not strong enough to get the girl out of the cave.

The shocked looks of the two men did not hurt the girl who had escaped death. Instead, the scar on her leg caught Zhang Ge's attention. He hurried forward and asked, "How did you hurt your leg? Is this thing originally in here?"

The girl, who finally saw the light again, cried and said, "No, I was accidentally injured after crawling into the cave. Luckily, I was wearing thick clothes, otherwise my leg would be gone. But the fangs on it were too deep and I was still injured. I was weak and couldn't open it at all. Besides, it was too dangerous outside, so I could only hide in there."

The thing that injured the girl's leg was none other than a trap. However, traps are clearly only sold in the human world. They didn't bring this thing with them when they came here. So why was there one in this lush forest? Who put it there? What was this trap used to catch? After all, as far as they knew, there seemed to be no other living things here except plants.

Just as Brother Zhang was puzzled, the girl said, "Brother Zhang, my team and I had just entered this place when we spotted a Level 1 beast. I'm afraid burning down this lush forest would be useless, so hurry up..."

Brother Zhang was shocked. "What? A first-level beast? There's no such information in the intelligence you gave us."

The girl's eyes widened in disbelief. "That's not right. We said we would report this information along with our location."

However, she wasn't the one who reported this news. After looking at the people outside the Venus Flytrap for a while, she asked, "Brother Zhang, have you found my team member? He was the one who called during the report. You can find out by asking him."

Brother Zhang was silent for a while, then replied, "Are they all gone? Not a single one left?"

Happy New Year!
