Cold Frost nodded.

Having experienced several ghost event missions, they also had a corresponding vigilant psychology toward some abnormalities.

And Lin Ye and Asuna focused on protecting the safety of the newcomers.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz..."

'Click...'

A big tree cracked.

'Boom...'

The big tree fell, making a loud 'boom' sound.

The first tree fell.

Everyone looked around vigilantly, but didn't find any changes.

"To the north."

Passerby didn't hesitate and swung the chainsaw toward the thick big tree to the north.

The sound of 'buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz' kept sounding, wood chips splashed, and yellow wood powder scattered, but it fell to the ground quickly under the washing of the rain.

The second big tree fell.

The third tree.

There was still no change.

This made Passerby, who was cutting trees, feel that Lin Ye's judgment was wrong again, and whether that guy was deliberately teasing him.

'Boom...'

The fifth tree fell.

At this moment, a cold wind suddenly rose, wet leaves flew and scattered,

A 'whoosh' sound was particularly harsh in the noisy rain. In an instant, Cold Frost's vigilance reached the highest, and a pitch-black sharp dagger appeared in her hand.

'Swish!'

A black shadow rushed out along the muddy ground, pouncing directly at Passerby.

"Drink!"

Cold Frost shouted, her body slightly bowed, and she rushed over with accumulated power, stabbing straight with the dagger in her hand.

But it was avoided by the shadow by a slight distance.

The sudden change of a few seconds made the high school student and the professional woman newcomer change their faces drastically. That black shadow whose appearance couldn't be seen was like a monster from hell, constantly releasing a terrible atmosphere.

"Don't run around,"

Lin Ye reminded coldly, "Running around will only make you die faster."

One sentence made the professional woman nod vigorously, but her body couldn't help but get closer.

The high school student wanted to get closer to Asuna, but was just patted on the shoulder by Lin Ye. "Go to the back."

"Oh, oh, oh!"

The high school student immediately listened and went to the back.

And now,

Cold Frost's agile body was constantly entangled with the black shadow in the forest.

This movement made Lin Ye praise it constantly.

An absolute expert, not at the same level as his wild player.

"Little brother, continue cutting trees, it was forced out by us."

The moment the black shadow appeared, it indicated that their method was correct, and cutting trees was an effective way to leave this forest.

Passerby immediately picked up the chainsaw. "You think cutting trees is easy!"

"I'm not good at physical activities." Lin Ye shrugged.

"Hehe."

The young man in glasses moved again, 'buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz...'.

The black shadow tried to stop it, but Cold Frost blocked it hard.

'Boom...'

The sixth tree also fell.

The wind suddenly became smaller, and the rain also gradually weakened.

This was the most obvious hint.

"Fast,"

Lin Ye shouted, Passerby immediately put away the chainsaw, turned and ran to the north, the two newcomers reacted faster, the desire for survival had long made the two want to escape here, but they understood that without the protection of old players, they would only die faster.

And now,

They could run freely.

"Asuna, take care of the two newcomers."

This made Asuna glance and nod.

"Miss Cold,"

"You're not leaving?"

"Anyway, we are teammates. If I really let you break the rear alone, it will affect our subsequent cooperation."

Cold Frost didn't answer, her eyes staring at the black shadow. Until now, this shadow was hiding in the shadows formed by the intersection of the jungle, without revealing its shape.

"Retreat in order."

Cold Frost retreated slowly,

The black shadow tried to launch an attack, but was blocked by Lin Ye.

Cold Frost narrowed her eyes slightly, because she found that she didn't capture Lin Ye's movements at all.

A few minutes later,

A group of six people retreated from the forest one after another, and the black shadow finally gave up as if accepting failure.

"Unable to leave the forest, or knowing that there is no chance to attack us in the open space?"

No one could answer this question.

A group of six people were now on a green open space, which was in sharp contrast to the gloomy, oppressive forest with rain and wind, here birds were singing and flowers were fragrant, the air was filled with pleasant scents, and under the blue sky, the dazzling sun was hanging high, releasing warm light and heat.

Everyone had a trance-like feeling of entering another world.

"Villa."

A European-style villa was located on the open space about a hundred meters away, and a figure appeared, that was a maid wearing a black and white maid outfit, she was bending over and using a spray bottle to water.

She didn't find the people coming from afar, but was focused on her own things.

"I suggest resting for a while, both I and Miss Cold need to rest." Passerby said.

Cutting trees with a chainsaw also took effort, and he had cut six thick big trees before and after.

Cold Frost naturally had no opinion.

And the newcomers were already paralyzed on the ground, both of them were covered in stains, especially the professional woman's high heels, the heel of which had broken. She took off the other high heel, trying to remove the heel of this one too.

"I'll help you,"

Asuna took action.

'Swish!'

A slender western sword flashed by, and the heel of the high heel was cut off flatly.

Lin Ye was more and more convinced that this 'Asuna' was the heroine of Sword Art Online, Asuna.

"Little brother Zero, you finally let me cut down the sixth tree because our number of people is six?"

"Mm."

"What if you don't cut it?"

"Probably... who would be left in that forest?"

Lin Ye looked at the forest he had rushed out of.

Looking at it from this angle now, the forest was lush and full of vitality, and had nothing to do with gloom and oppression.

"Just a possibility,"

Lin Ye smiled.

But he felt the gaze from Cold Frost.

In the situation at that time, if there were no accidents, the last person left in the forest would be her. ===== CHAPTER 398 =====
