"Their bodies don't have any resistance to the drugs, and they're not as well prepared as our team. By the time they get here, their reserves and stamina have almost reached their limits.
There is a high probability that this is the end point of their journey.
After we finish cleaning up, we will start searching with the water source as the center."
This is why she is anxious to detoxify.
If Zhou Huaijing was still alive, she might be able to rush to save him.
Zhou Huaijing's team did not have an astronomer. Even if there was one to survey the terrain, it would take a lot of time just to get out of the python forest.
Even Gu Liu couldn't realize at the first sight that everything here was poisonous, and the military doctor accompanying their team was probably even less capable of it.
As we go deeper, the risk factor increases sharply. This is already the limit.
Even a team like them, which can be said to have the world's top configuration, is in a rather embarrassing situation here.
"No problem." Several people agreed.
Then Gu Liu looked at Hu Lin's wrists, which hadn't yet pulled down his clothes, and asked, "Are you okay?"
The wrist wrapped around the wound was already soaked with blood.
Hu Lin's face was pale and yellowish.
"It's okay, let's talk about it after we're safe." Hu Lin looked at Dilong and Wangxing.
Two people are investigating the water source.
They had just been fleeing in a panic and had no idea where they were now.
As Dilong was checking, he suddenly noticed that the ground seemed to be shaking slightly. He immediately lay on the ground and listened attentively.
Then he stood up and said, "Hurry up, there are many large animals behind us."
Wang Xing heard this and jumped down from the tree, "Let's go."
Wangxing and Dilong led the way in front. Dilong observed the terrain as he walked, and constantly adjusted his specific position within the general direction pointed out by Wangxing.
The noise that the earth dragon heard just now was due to the infighting among the monkeys, which caused a strong smell of blood and attracted the real predators in the forest.
Several people arrived near the water source. Wang Xing and Qiu Jing observed the movements in the direction of the water source. Di Long lay on the ground to listen to see if there were any pursuers behind him. Gu Liu and Ji Renhui stood beside Hu Lin, watching the situation around them.
There are animals drinking water at the water source, almost all of them are large animals.
Wild boars, gorillas, leopards, elephants...
They all look mutated and are much larger than normal animals.
They were playing in the river without interfering with each other and it seemed that they would not leave for a while.
After the team members confirmed that it was safe, they gathered together and reported their respective situations.
"Wait." Hu Lin concluded.
There were so many large animals, and they could only wait for them to leave.
Hu Lin hadn't had a sip of water when he woke up. He had lost some blood and had been fleeing all the way, so he was now starving.
"Let's take a break." Hu Lin said quietly, taking out some dry food and eating it.
The others also took out dry food.
Looking at the time, it's already five o'clock in the afternoon.
The fog thickened again and the sky grew darker. The team hid in the bushes and waited until the animals left before they moved.
The team went to the river and poured water on their bodies to wash away the smell of blood.
In this damn place, they didn't dare to go into the water or take off their clothes easily.
After the clothes were wet, the smell of blood became much lighter.
After a short rest, the team walked towards the river in wet clothes.
After dark, the team no longer dared to light their way openly. They only turned on a flashlight and covered it with their hands.
The team members tied ropes around their waists and looked for a place to rest in the dim light.
They went deeper today. There were large animals everywhere and the fog was thick at night. It was not suitable for the team to experience fighting or escaping now.
After finding a place, the team stopped to rest.
People climb up trees to observe the stars and determine the direction. Since earth dragons cannot be seen, they rely on touch to roughly judge the nearby geology to see if it is the territory of some animal.
Qiu Jing held the flashlight and shone it on Hu Lin's wound. Gu Liu was changing the bandage on Hu Lin, and Ji Renhui was standing by to watch.
Soon, Dilong and Wangxing came back.
The team members huddled together to rest, without untying the ropes on their bodies.
Hu Lin was injured and did not keep watch, so the others took turns to keep watch.
In the middle of the night, Ji Renhui, who was on guard, heard a slight noise in the woods.
It was the sound of something crawling.
Hearing this, Ji Renhui's first thought was snake, but after listening carefully, she found that it was not.
Then he felt something falling on his neck, crawling to find a place to get close to his skin.
Tick!
Ji Renhui immediately remembered this thing and immediately crushed the insect to death, waking up several people.
The ticks here are not afraid of the insect repellent powder spread by Gu Liu, and their size is twice that of those in ordinary forests.
Everyone woke up, and Ji Renhui explained, "There are ticks."
The rustling noises around became louder.
Ticks are gathering here.
"Let's go." Hu Lin felt dizzy for a moment when he stood up.
The team set out again.
Gu Liu took out anthelmintic and sprinkled it on several people, focusing on the head.
Although they were fully armed, there was still some space between their necks and heads.
Ticks are difficult to deal with, and after mutation, who knows what they have become now, so it’s better to avoid getting infected with them.
When we walked out of the swarm of ticks, there was already some daylight in the forest.
Stargazing: Before the stars in the sky are fully illuminated, climb up the tree to determine the direction.
The team also stopped here to take a short rest.
Gu Liu changed the dressing for Hu Lin.
The wound on Hu Lin's arm had been inflamed for several days and had become slightly festered. He slept in wet clothes last night and it was hot and humid in the forest, so the surface of the wound had become festered.
"I'll scrape the rotten flesh off for you. You can't use this hand for a few days."
