Where was Yuri's body, and why did the body disappear for no reason?
These two questions now hung over the entire capture team like a fog.
Haman had been thinking about this question. If the killer could make such a large body disappear for no reason, why didn't it attack the living?
And was this the same thing that made the bodies disappear, that stole the food scraps, and that kept Haman and the others from meeting any danger from the beginning or not?
When they first entered the forest, everyone was still talking and laughing. Some people were even singing loudly, treating this operation as an outing.
But now, not only did everyone speed up their journey.
They also tried their best to avoid things that might cause danger.
They just wanted to get out of the forest as soon as possible.
Looking at the swaying shadows around them, it seemed that there might be killing hidden in the leaves.
It had to be said that even Haman was a little afraid now.
But what could they do? He might eat some biscuits to calm down.
Whenever Haman thought of a guess that might scare him, he would eat a biscuit to calm down.
Today's situation was getting more and more strange. Yesterday, except for Yuri's death because of the Hornets, there was no danger at all.
Except for Haman, no one noticed anything wrong at all.
But today, everyone noticed that something was strange.
Because today, the capture team didn't encounter any danger at all.
Haman glanced at the Sun. It should be eleven o'clock now.
It had been five hours since they had set off in the morning.
But up until now, even wild beasts had not been seen, not to mention dinosaurs.
The originally noisy forest had now even disappeared with the sound of insects.
Apart from the sound of the arresting party's feet breaking those dead branches, there was no more sound in the whole wood.
Finally, Cole somewhat broke down under this strange silence.
"Haman, you must know what's going on, right?"
Cole roared at Haman, wanting to pounce on him.
But he still stopped because Haman had already pulled out the bone knife before he could make a move.
Haman smiled disdainfully. "No, since yesterday, we've been targeted."
Once these words were said, even Mankiw could not remain calm.
"We've been targeted?" Mankiw was a little shocked. "When did this happen? Is it the thing that stole the corpse?"
Mankiw's question made Haman think highly of him.
At least he did not say anything about this being impossible.
If he were too confident in himself, he would not live long in this wilderness.
"I don't know when," Haman shook his head and stuffed the biscuit bag in his hand into his backpack. "I don't know anything."
"Then what do you know?" Cole roared. "If you don't know anything, what's the use of having you as a guide?"
Haman did not lie to them. Up until now, he did not know what exactly was following them.
But what could be confirmed was that there must be a terrifying creature tracking them, but they did not know what it was.
If nothing was tracking them, they might have even seen a wild beast until now.
"I understand." Mankiw didn't say much after listening. He took a deep breath and said, "Then what should we do now?"
"Keep walking. You won't go back anyway. Can't you just keep walking?" Haman said.
As soon as he said this, Cole's face turned red with anger.
"Do Nothing?" Cole would have pounced on them if he didn't have some rationality. "Are we just going to wait for that thing to kill us?"
He casually chewed the biscuit in his mouth. The biscuits that he thought delicious at the beginning were now tasteless.
Even the most delicious food would be like this, not to mention that Haman was not hungry at all.
But just in case, he continued to eat.
"So?" Haman said, "It's already the best-case scenario since it hasn't attacked yet. If we turn back now, we're most likely to be killed."
"This area is already one of the Velociraptor's habitats, but we haven't seen a velociraptor up to now."
Haman's words were like the sun shining through the night that instantly woke up the capture team.
That's right, none of the capture teams could survive when they were facing a group of Velociraptors.
But now, that creature is hidden in the dark made all the Velociraptors retreat without appearing.
What kind of deterrence was this!
After Kerr's previous words, everyone was somewhat oppressed.
It was then that everyone realized that it was still helpful to have an experienced guide in the team.
At this time, everyone suddenly began to have some recognition of Haman's value amidst their fear.
At least now everyone knew what they should do.
Like the person in charge of the mine, he would not hurry to produce until the target time.
He would still eat, drink, and not care about anything else.
But when it was time to hand over the ore, he would be like a mad dog.
Then he would make the miners work overtime until the task was completed.
Perhaps, only death was the first motivation for people.
Just like today, it was impossible to walk out of this forest according to the original plan.
But now, Haman looked at the sun. It was only six o'clock in the afternoon.
It was the edge of the forest in front of them.
The capture team was scared and wanted to fly out of the forest.
They had only walked six kilometres in the forest yesterday.
It was not that the capture team was lazy, but it was not easy to walk.
Every kilometre in the forest would bring countless troubles.
Whether it was the vines blocking the road, the direction lost, or the scattered wild beasts, they all seriously hindered the team's speed.
But today, the capture team had become a whole, and they took turns to open the way, and there were no small wild beasts.
And they were even forcefully withstood the midday sun because they were in the forest.
Even when they ate, they ate while walking.
Everything they did was to get out of this forest as soon as possible.
Fortunately, they did it. And they saw the edge of the forest in front.
When they walked out of the forest, the familiar scene was still in front of them.
They did not see the withered yellow grassland at the edge but saw a rolling barren mountain not far to the right.
Looking at the scene in front of them, Haman sighed in his heart.
"The grass here has also become like this!"
Initially, after passing through this forest, the colour of the grass would become as green as the dream.
But now, the grass here had also become wilted yellow.
"Now!"
Haman turned his head and said to the capture team.
"You have two choices. One is to go through the habitat of the parasaurolophus or go through the tunnel over there."
Haman pointed to the barren hill on the right.
