Chapter 468 The Anaconda Disaster
Chapter 468 The Anaconda Disaster
"This won't do!"
Upon hearing this, Shao Hua immediately objected.
He had the best relationship with Li Ben; otherwise, he wouldn't have gotten ahead of Li Ben.
"What did we say before we set off?"
Jiang Hao's gaze turned cold as he looked at Shao Hua.
"If you don't think it's going to work, then go find him."
"This……"
Shao Hua looked hesitant.
Although the two were very close, sending him to find Li Ben on his own under these circumstances would be tantamount to courting death!
He had no choice but to look for help in the eyes of his leader, Dai Yinyi, who was standing to the side.
Dai Yinyi's expression was somewhat uncertain.
"Li Ben might be lost. Why don't we wait here for a few minutes?"
"If he hasn't caught up yet, it's not too late for us to set off again."
Zhang Hao suggested.
"I'm fine, but what about Chief Dai?"
Jiang Hao looked at Dai Yinyi.
"Then...okay!"
Dai Yin sighed.
How could you possibly get lost if you just follow the stream?
It is highly likely that Li Ben met with misfortune.
But neither Jiang Hao nor Zhang Hao were willing to search for them.
Asking to wait a few minutes was just to save face.
The group waited cautiously in place.
A few minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
But in the mist behind them, there was no sign of Li Ben, nor even a sound.
"Okay, let's go!"
When the time was up, Jiang Hao couldn't help but urge them on.
If it was some powerful monster that kidnapped Li Ben.
If they continue to wait here, they will only face certain death!
Dai Yin nodded to his men and continued on his journey.
It's different from before.
After Li Ben went missing, no one in the group whispered to each other anymore, and the atmosphere became noticeably tense.
One of them accidentally stepped on a dead branch, which startled the others so much that they were on high alert!
The group walked for another half hour and had already passed the location where Jiang Hao and the others had arrived yesterday.
Just then, Jiang Hao exclaimed "Eh!" and then bent down.
"what happened?"
Zhang Hao, who was standing behind him, asked.
Jiang Hao did not answer, but simply raised his palm.
In his palm lay a withered silver vine.
"What's wrong with this?"
Dai Yin frowned.
"These are the vines of the Energy Fruit."
Jiang Hao explained.
Dai Yin and Zhang Hao were stunned for a moment, then their hearts leaped with joy.
Since there are vines of energy fruits here, it means that there used to be energy fruits here.
I just don't know how it disappeared later.
Moreover, there are even more energy fruits nearby!
"Then let's quicken our pace!"
Dai Yin urged.
Jiang Hao smiled and was about to speak when he seemed to see something terrifying, and his expression changed drastically!
Following the direction he was looking, Dai Yinyi and Zhang Hao looked over.
His expression changed slightly as well!
After Li Ben disappeared, Shao Hua was left at the very end of the group.
However, at this moment, Shao Hua's figure also vanished without a trace!
The others noticed their expressions and then realized what was going on!
"Lu Xiaohang, have you noticed anything?"
Jiang Hao took a deep breath and asked with a solemn expression.
"No...no!"
Lu Xiaohang came to his senses, his face showing some tension.
As a high-level evolved being, he walked at the back of the group.
But he didn't notice anything amiss when both people went missing!
The others in the group also looked somewhat panicked.
If any monsters do appear, given their formidable strength, we can simply fight them.
But the problem is that we haven't even seen a shadow of a monster.
Li Ben and Shao Hua seemed to have vanished into thin air.
This was something they simply couldn't accept psychologically.
"Should we retreat?"
Ah Qiang said in a low voice.
Dai Yinyi and Zhang Hao remained silent, their gazes fixed on Jiang Hao.
With the energy fruit right in front of them, retreating like this would be too much to bear.
But then again, this situation is really quite strange!
"Lu Xiaohang, you and the other two, try to recall when you last saw Shao Hua."
Jiang Hao asked in a deep voice.
"About a minute before we stopped, I glanced back and he was still following behind us."
Lu Xiaohang answered immediately.
Unlike others, Lu Xiaohang was very vigilant and would turn his head to observe from time to time.
"Let's go back and check the situation!"
Jiang Hao gave the instructions.
Faced with unknown dangers and having no clue what to do, the crowd could only temporarily obey his orders.
They turned around and headed back the way they came.
Not long after they walked out, Lu Xiaohang said,
"I'm sure it's right here!"
Beside the stream, there were several blue flowers, which left a deep impression on Lu Xiaohang.
Jiang Hao searched around but found no trace.
Just as he was about to say something, his face turned pale instantly!
Because their team is now missing one person!
As the group turned around, Jiang Hao, Dai Yinyi, and others took the lead.
The purpose is to prevent sudden encounters with monsters.
The others who were originally at the front of the line became the last.
However, the last member disappeared again!
Everyone present panicked!
"Ghost... ghost..."
Someone cried out in unease.
"You motherfucker!"
Jiang Hao stepped forward and slapped the other person hard across the face!
He tried to appear calm on the surface, but inside he was panicking!
Before this, Jiang Hao certainly didn't believe that ghosts existed in this world.
But three people have disappeared without a trace, and now it's a post-apocalyptic world.
The surrounding environment was too gloomy and terrifying.
It's hard not to associate it with ghosts and monsters.
However, Jiang Hao couldn't just let that guy spout nonsense.
Otherwise, if people's morale is low, it will be difficult to lead the team.
"Shall we go back?"
Despite being drawn to the energy fruit, Dai Yinyi still proposed a retreat.
"Going back now would only mean all our previous efforts were wasted."
Jiang Hao said coldly,
"And how do you know our journey back will be smooth sailing?"
Dai Yin was speechless for a moment.
Yes.
What if we go back and there are a few fewer people?
Tong Fei, who was in the group, was also terrified and turned pale.
After all, she's just a girl in her early twenties.
Just then, the communicator on Tong Fei's waist suddenly vibrated slightly.
"It's Su Chen!"
The thought that Su Chen was secretly following her made Tong Fei feel much more at ease.
She quietly took out her communicator, just about to see what Su Chen was saying.
But at this critical juncture, Jiang Hao was on edge.
He happened to see Tong Fei's actions!
"Captain Tong, what are you doing?!"
"No...I didn't do anything!"
Tong Fei panicked and quickly put away the communicator, pretending to be nonchalant.
