Hunter x Hunter: The Ubiquitous Dragon Life

Chapter 10: Lost in the forest

When she regained consciousness, Celluloid felt like she was lying on a cold and damp ground. She opened her eyes, and she was greeted with a dark and thick green. The strangely-shaped branches were intertwined and stretched, covering the sky tightly, the branches and leaves. The sky revealed in the gap between the two is also gloomy and dark, and the surroundings sounded very quiet at first, but if you listen carefully, you can hear all kinds of faint sounds.

"Is it in the forest?" Thinking like this, Cellulu sat up and stretched her muscles and bones. Her body had returned to its original shape. The place where the bullets had made a few holes in her body was now smooth and delicate. It was as good as before, and the horrific state of yesterday could not be seen at all. Only the hard clothes that were soaked with blood and now turned dark brown because of drying can prove the existence of the scars.

"Oh, I'm really unlucky to meet a crazy guy." Thinking of what happened yesterday, Cellulu couldn't help but feel sullen.

"But I'm really slow to respond. In fact, I should be able to know that the guy won't let me go in order to hold the policeman for time. I still foolishly think he won't kill me. What should I do now? What? Go back to Rietta or not?"

Cellulu is a person with a strong sense of responsibility. Thinking of today's auction, she couldn't help but feel worried.

"If I don't go back, I'll suddenly disappear. The company doesn't know if they can find someone to replace me. If no one comes on stage, then I won't have to open the skylight. And Fran, he disappeared suddenly without even saying goodbye to her. Does she think I'm irresponsible and ruthless. And depending on my relationship with Fran, if I screw up the show and can't find my own company to blame Fran, then I Not too sorry Fran."

But thinking that she really wanted to go back to Rietta, Cellulu hesitated again. According to the amount of blood she had suffered yesterday, as long as she was a normal person, she could tell that she would definitely not survive, and if the policeman came back and saw that she was missing , will definitely issue a search warrant to the report. After all, the sudden disappearance of a dying hostage involved in the pursuit of police and criminals is still very serious. The police search will not be weak. It was for the upper class, but after all, it was a public place, and there were a lot of people coming and going. If she was found alive and unscathed, wouldn't that reveal her abnormality? That would be too dangerous.

Thinking about Fran, Rietta's unfinished work, the salary she didn't get, and her unexpected departure, the more she thought about it, the more indignant and unwilling she became, she couldn't help screaming frantically. speak out.

"Ah! Why would I encounter this kind of thing even when I was just directing traffic there? It's really unfortunate. If I knew it earlier, I would have used my abilities. Although the aftermath is troublesome, it's better than I am in a dilemma now!"

After venting, Cellulu sighed and continued to think, but she finally gave in to the idea that she just came to this world and didn't want to attract attention and get in trouble, and she decided not to go back.

There is always a way to do an auction. There are so many people in the company, and it’s always possible to find anyone who wants to participate. Anyway, it’s just an auction today, as long as someone is holding a mobile phone. The company won't find anyone else to do it.

The only thing that is more worrying is Fran, but if you think about it carefully, it is an accident that Fran can't play, and he was recommended by the planning director, not Fran. In addition, Fran also has a backstage in the company. She wouldn't be embarrassed and scolded her for such a little thing. Although she couldn't say goodbye to her, she could go back to see Fran when things calmed down later.

Although I figured it out, Cellulo was still a little uncomfortable, even if it wasn't intentional, the sudden missed appointment always made Cellullu feel bad, sighed, and there was no way to do it now.

Suddenly remembering her belongings, Cellulu hurriedly touched the side of her body. Fortunately, the small bag carrying all her belongings on the body was still there. Cellulo could not help but secretly said that she was lucky. She always takes all her belongings with her, otherwise she will lose these things now, and she will be broke, and all the money she earned from working in the past will be wasted. It made her very distressed.

She was relieved, noticing that she was still sitting on the ground, she quickly stood up, patted the dirt on her body, and observed the surrounding situation. Just now, she was lying under a towering tree, and she could see In addition to the towering trees, there are still towering trees. The ground is covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves. Because of the damp environment, most of them are rotted. There was a thin layer of mist floating in it.

"It should be in a virgin forest. It seems that you have to get out of this forest first. I don't know which exit is populated." Looking at the forest without any artificial signs or traces of human beings, Celluloid thought.

Looking around, Cellulu didn't give up trying to find a direction that might be crowded, but after looking for a long time, she had no clue at all. With a sigh, she found a random direction and started walking. Anyway, as long as she kept walking, she would always be able to After leaving this forest, the rest will be discussed after leaving the forest.

Walking slowly through the forest, Celluloid walked with one foot deep and one foot shallow. The ground is very soft, and the thick fallen leaves cover up the uneven places. If you are not careful, you will step into shallow pits at any time. , In order to avoid falling, she walked very carefully. Since there was no obvious road on the ground, and the surrounding vegetation was too dense, Cellulu had to keep pushing away the bushes in front of her with her hands, and kept sweeping. The branches and leaves on her body hurt her exposed skin.

After walking for a long time, the surrounding scenery did not change, except for the tree or the tree, and it was completely impossible to see when it would be possible to leave this forest. Cellulu couldn't help but hesitate.

She is completely unfamiliar with this forest, and she doesn't know how many days it will take to get out of this forest. If it takes dozens of days, then food will become a big problem. Although water is not a problem, she can Compressing and gathering the moisture in the air, but food, such a virgin forest is estimated to be more difficult to find, although the life is very long, but Celluloid's ability to survive in the wild is still very good.

And since just now, I don't know if it's her illusion, she always feels that the place she walks is getting quieter and quieter, but this kind of quietness is quite abnormal, it always gives her a sense of danger, think about the forest There may be beasts and poisonous insects in it. Celluloid began to seriously consider whether to use her superpowers to get rid of this environment as soon as possible.

Space transformation is no good, because whether it is teleportation or long-distance jumping, the prerequisite for activation is that she must know where she wants to go, and she has a little understanding of that place. Now this forest is unknown, even if she barely uses it. I don't know if it can be teleported to the right place after moving in an instant, but if it moves and finds it goes further into the forest hinterland, it will not be worth the loss. Long-distance jumping is even worse. She only knows Scari and Rietta in this world. Rietta can't go back now, and Scari, she doesn't want to go back.

"Well, after thinking about it, the only way is to walk from the air. The field of vision is clearer, and no one should see such a primitive forest."

Although it is the best way, and there is nothing to worry about, Cellulo is still a little hesitant, as if she was deliberately teasing her. Although Cellulo has many abilities, there will always be side effects of one kind or another. limit.

Just like she has the ability to fly, but she has a serious fear of heights. As long as she is more than two meters above the ground, she will feel weak all over and her brain will be dizzy. She doesn't like that feeling of being helpless. She clearly knew that she would never fall, but the psychological fear made her feel that she would fall at any time. Reason and emotion are two different things. Psychological obstacles are not so easy to overcome. As soon as he ascended into the sky, he immediately fled back to the ground unbearably, and according to the current situation, Cellulu didn't know how long it would take to fly high in the sky to escape this forest.

Shasha~~~ Shasha~~~

While she was distressed, a rustling sound suddenly came from her ear, like the sound of an object passing through the bushes, and Cellulo immediately became alert. There must be animals in such a primeval forest, but she didn't know what type of thing was about to appear. Animals, if it is a beast, it is dangerous.

Celluloid held her breath and stared at the trees and sandy ground. In the blink of an eye, an animal the size of an elephant appeared from the branches and leaves. She couldn't help but exclaimed, not only because of the huge size of the animal. , and because it looks very weird and hideous.

At this moment, the animal was staring at her with its red and fierce eyes without blinking, and the saliva from its mouth kept dripping on the ground. Looking at this situation, even if she was a fool, Cellulu knew that the animal had bad intentions towards her. At this time, the animal was bowing slightly, which was a sign before the force was exerted. The opponent was obviously about to pounce, and he couldn't care about the **** fear of heights. Obviously, the fear of heights is better than being bitten by an animal. Lulu is getting ready to take to the sky.

Suddenly, a figure appeared next to him, accompanied by a loud shout of "dangerous", rubbed his body, and the other side rushed towards the animal. Cellulu didn't see the man's movements, and the animal was screaming and roaring. Falling down, Cellulu was stunned by the transformation between the electric light and flint. For a while, she just kept a strange posture with one foot raised, and stared at the change in front of her dumbfoundedly.

The other party turned his face, facing Cellulu, and asked angrily, "How are you, are you alright?"

Then, without waiting for Cellul to reply, she continued to babble:

"That's Sorapitu, an A-level magical beast. It's a very vicious animal. It's only found in this Calif Forest, but bones and skins are very good medicinal materials. The black market price is not low, and there are many people who don't care about it. Your life is in danger to come here for poaching. If it wasn't for me, you would have been eaten and there would be no bones left. You are too careless, how could you come to such a place alone?"

After talking for a long time, he seemed to remember that he was chattering a lot without waiting for anyone to answer. The other party immediately stopped, touched his head, and looked at the girl embarrassedly.

Celluloid was listening to the other party's chattering and babbling. She basically didn't understand the introductions that followed. The mixed technical terms made a lot of birds fly around Cellulo's head, but the animal that the other party said was very dangerous to her. But I understood. No matter what, it was an indisputable fact that this person saved her. Thinking of this, Cellulu immediately bowed to this benefactor who couldn't see anything because she was wearing a cloak. thank:

"Thank you for saving me just now, otherwise I really don't know what to do."

--------------The following is Kim's perspective-------------

Only now did Jin carefully see the girl in front of him. She was only fourteen or fifteen years old. She was very petite, with blue hair and blue eyes. She was wearing a dress, but she couldn't see any color. In fact, the girl in front of her was very small. As if he had just climbed out of the corpse, his hair, face, and legs were covered with dried-up dark brown blood, and his clothes seemed to have been soaked in blood, and the whole body was dyed dark. Deep dark brown.

Jin couldn't help frowning. Just now, he thought that the other party was someone who came here for poaching, but now he seems to be just an ordinary girl. You can see that his skills are not very good, although he seems to have encountered something. However, this forest is not for ordinary people to enter. There are monsters and phantom beasts of A-level and above inhabiting it everywhere. There are occasionally S-level monsters, but although the body is covered in blood, the girl in front of her doesn’t seem to have any. Injured, to be able to appear in the forest hinterland unscathed is really incredible.

Thinking of this, he asked aloud. "Are you really all right? Seeing how embarrassed you are, why did you appear here? This forest is not for ordinary people to come in, and you don't look like a poacher." Neither are hunters or psychics. It looked like this sentence was swallowed by Jin.

---------------Turn back to Celluloid's point of view----------------

Although I didn't look in the mirror, I could imagine how embarrassed she is now, and now hearing him say it again, she knew that the other party must be suspicious, but to be honest, it's not good, let's not talk about the other party first. If you believe it or not, if you don't believe in yourself, you will be more suspicious, and if you believe it, your own specialness will be exposed.

Therefore, Cellulu had only one question and three questions, she pretended to be slightly scared and confused, and said,

"I don't know either. Before, there were bandits in the village, and there were dead people everywhere. I was so frightened that I fainted. When I woke up, I was here. I walked here for a long time and didn't see anyone. I don't know where this is, I was worrying about how to get out, but fortunately you showed up," she said, looking at Jin with pretended happiness.

------------- Turn to Kim's perspective ---------------

"Well? Really, that's really pitiful." Jin didn't really believe the words of the girl in front of him. There were too many doubts, and many things couldn't make sense.

"Well, please, if you can, can you take me out of the forest? I don't know how to go out." The girl asked him timidly.

"Well, okay, then you come with me, I'll take you out of the forest, by the way, my name is Jin Fulis."

Without any hesitation, Jin agreed. To him, the girl in front of him was a little weird, but who didn't hide it at all? It's impossible for a girl to tell the truth to a stranger like him all at once, and a master artist is bold. Jin is not afraid of what other intentions the girl in front of him will have.

-------------Turn back to celluloid perspective -----------------

The man in front of him pulled down the brim of his hat, and ripped off his messy, unruly short dark green hair that was upturned. With a hearty and sincere smile, he readily agreed to Celluloid's request, although the beard on the other side's face was stubborn. , A downhearted look, but his eyes are bright and clean.

Not a bad person, Cellulu thought. She was very happy that her proposal was approved. At first, I was afraid that the other party would think she had ulterior motives and refused. Starting to scrutinize, if the other party continues to ask questions, she will not be able to justify herself. Lies always accumulate, and Cellulu doesn't want to keep lying, so she has a good feeling for this considerate person who doesn't ask questions. What's more, the person in front of him seems to be very skilled and familiar with this forest, so he can walk out of the forest smoothly after following him.

Therefore, Cellulu once again sincerely bowed to the man in front of her and thanked him, smiling happily.

"Thank you so much. I am willing to take me out of the forest. I will try my best not to cause you any trouble. I will ask you to take care of me. My name is Cellulu. You can just call me Cellulu. I will also May I call you Mr. Kim?"

"You can call it whatever you like, I don't care, then Cellulu, please take care of you." Jin answered casually, not caring about the question of the name.

"Okay, Mr. Kim."

Seeing the girl happily agreeing, Jin scratched his face, putting aside the strange appearance, this Cellulu is a polite child, who can easily make people feel good.
