Chapter 6: Whispers of the Dark Forest II

The night was like ink, and there was an eerie silence at the edge of the dark forest, as if even the stars were swallowed up by this ancient land. Lin Yi and his team members walked carefully through the dense forest, and the darkness around them clinged to them like living creatures, making them feel an invisible sense of oppression.

"It's so quiet here." Renault whispered, his heavy weapon in his hand, ready to respond to the unexpected, "uncomfortably quiet." "

Alice nodded slightly, her purple eyes glinting in the darkness, as if they could penetrate the endless darkness. "I could feel some faint mental fluctuations." Her voice was soft and calm, "There is some kind of power hidden in this forest, and it is watching us. "

Su Yao held the detector tightly, and although the signal was weak, she still tried to find clues from it. "The detector shows that we are heading in the right direction." There was a hint of nervousness in her voice, "But the energy interference here is too strong for me to pinpoint the exact location of the fragments." "

Lin Yi took a deep breath, his heart was full of determination. "Either way, we can only move on." He whispered, "The badge will lead us to the shards." "

They continued to walk through the dark forest, the trees around them becoming denser and denser, as if forming a natural barrier. Lin Yi could feel that the heat of the badge was gradually rising, which meant that they were getting closer to their goal. However, as they descend deeper into the forest, the atmosphere around them becomes more oppressive.

"Be careful, everyone." Lin Yi reminded in a low voice, his gaze fixed on the darkness ahead, "We may encounter danger at any time. "

At this moment, a low roar came from not far away, breaking the silence of the forest. The team immediately stopped, vigilantly searching for the source of the sound.

"What is it?" Renault asked in a low voice, his fingers tightly clasped on the weapon's trigger.

Alice closed her eyes, and her spiritual power spread rapidly. "It's a creature, huge and hostile." There was a hint of solemnity in her voice, "It's approaching us. "

Lin Yi's heart tightened, and the dark creature on the planet Sailen-Shadow Wolf appeared in his mind. Those creatures are able to stealth in the dark and launch deadly attacks. He didn't know if there were similar creatures in the Dark Forest, but he knew that they had to be prepared.

"Renault, get your weapons ready." Lin Yi said in a low voice, "Su Yao, you and Alice are covering behind. "

Renault nodded, his heavy weapon already aimed in the direction the sound came from. "Don't worry, Lin Yi." There was a hint of confidence in his voice, "I'll take care of it." "

In the darkness, the low roar grew closer, as if it were right next to them. Lin Yi could feel the heat of the badge rising, and he knew that they were already close to the first fragment of the Heart of the Abyss. However, the creatures of this forest clearly won't make it easy for them.

"It's coming." Alice's voice rang out suddenly, a hint of warning flashing in her purple eyes.

As soon as the words fell, a huge black shadow rushed out of the darkness and came straight towards Lin Yi. Renault reacted quickly, and a barrage of bullets shot at the shadow, but the creature was extremely fast and easily dodged the attack.

"Be careful!" Su Yao exclaimed, her detector flashing in her hand.

Lin Yi quickly dodged and dodged the black shadow's attack. He could feel the dark energy emanating from the creature, as if it were part of the forest itself.

"It's a dark creature, and its power is connected to this forest." Alice's voice sounded in Lin Yi's ears, "We must be careful not to let it go back into darkness. "

Lin Yi nodded, his heart full of vigilance. He knew that the battle would not be easy, but they had no way out. In order to find the fragments of the Heart of the Abyss, they must defeat the enemies in front of them.

The roar of the dark creature echoed through the forest, and its figure loomed in the darkness, as if it was ready to strike a fatal blow at any moment. Lin Yi and the team members gathered tightly together, vigilantly watching the movements around them.

"We can't let it get close." Lin Yi said in a low voice, "Renault, you are responsible for containing its actions. Su Yao and Alice, you find a way to weaken its power. "

Renault nodded, his heavy weapon aimed once again at the creature in the darkness. "I'll let it know what real fear is." There was a hint of arrogance in his voice.

Su Yao held the detector tightly, her eyes glued to the data on the screen. "I'm going to use a detector to interfere with its energy." There was a hint of firmness in her voice.

Alice closed her eyes, and her spiritual power spread rapidly. "I will use my power to weaken its dark energy." Her voice was soft and firm.

Lin Yi nodded, his heart full of confidence. He knew that they were a team, and if they worked together, they would be able to defeat the enemy in front of them.

The dark creature let out a low roar again, its figure moving rapidly through the darkness like a black lightning bolt. Renault quickly pulled the trigger and fired a barrage of bullets at the creature in the darkness, but the creature was extremely fast and easily dodged the attack.

"Damn, this guy is too fast." Renault cursed under his breath, his fingers tightly clasped on the weapon's trigger.

At this moment, the detector in Su Yao's hand suddenly emitted a bright light, and an energy wave shot out from the detector, directly hitting the dark creature. The creature let out a roar of pain, and its body trembled slightly, as if it had been disturbed in some way.

"The probe worked!" There was a hint of excitement in Su Yao's voice, "Its energy has been weakened!" "

At the same time, Alice's psychic powers are at work. Her purple eyes shone with light, and spiritual fluctuations emanated from her, directly impacting the dark energy of the dark creature. The creature's roar became even more poignant, and its body struggled in the darkness, as if it could not withstand the suppression of this power.

"Now, Renault!" Lin Yi shouted, his tactical knife flashed in his hand, and he rushed directly towards the dark creature.

Renault reacted immediately, and his heavy weapon was once again aimed at the creature in the darkness, and a barrage of bullets was fired. This time, the dark creatures could no longer dodge and were hit directly by bullets. Its body struggled in the darkness for a few moments, eventually letting out a terrible roar that turned into a cloud of black smoke and dissipated into the air.

"Well done!" Renaud exclaimed, a hint of excitement on his face.

Su Yao breathed a sigh of relief, her detector flashing in her hand. "We succeeded." There was a hint of relief in her voice.

Lin Yi nodded, his gaze falling on the badge. He could feel the heat of the badge rising, and he knew that they were getting close to the first fragment of the Heart of the Abyss.

"Let's move on." Lin Yi whispered, "The fragments are nearby. "

In the dark forest, the night was like ink, but the hearts of Lin Yi and the team members were full of hope. They know that this adventure has just begun, and that more challenges and unknown dangers await them. But they're ready to face whatever lies ahead.

"Whatever lies ahead, I'm going to keep going." Lin Yi said silently in his heart, his gaze firm and powerful.

And on his chest, the mysterious badge flickered slightly, as if in response to his determination. It knows that this adventure has only just begun, and its chosen master is ready.
