In the quiet forest with dim light and chills in the air, Zhou Chen and the single ponytail girl marched forward unhurriedly. Every time they walked, they would use their weapons to mark the tree trunks.

The road conditions in this strange forest were better than they expected. Most of the ground was relatively flat, there were not many weeds and shrubs on the ground, and the distance between trees was relatively large, which made it easy for them to walk.

"This place is so strange, I can't hear any birds..."

After walking for a short while, the single ponytail girl with a long-handled knife looked around with her bright eyes and muttered in her mouth.

"Maybe they are all hiding, or they have migrated away."

Zhou Chen used the scimitar in his hand to make a mark on a big tree passing by and replied.

"It's also possible that the system hasn't set up small animals in this place at all. With its personality, it should prefer to let monsters in."

The single ponytail girl thought for a while and said to Zhou Chen.

"Hehe, don't care about it, I want to meet some monsters quickly and see what special drops are there."

Zhou Chen remembered that the system prompt for survival this time said that killing monsters had special drops, and he was a little curious about it.

"Me too...but it doesn't look like a monster is hiding in the surroundings."

While speaking, the bright eyes of the single ponytail girl were paying close attention to the surrounding situation.

The two walked in this way for about half an hour, and they found that the scene around them had not changed much. They were surrounded by tall trees, and they did not see the river, nor the high slopes or valleys.

"I'll go to the top of the tree to take a look."

Zhou Chen felt that he couldn't go blindly like this anymore, he planned to climb to the top of the tree and look down at the surrounding situation.

"Top of the tree? The leaves on this are high and dense, and it's not easy to climb up."

The girl found it difficult for him to practice this idea.

"It's not easy, but you have to try it while you have enough physical fitness."

Zhou Chen knew that he might not have gained much effort to climb up, but he still wanted to give it a try.

Soon, Zhou Chen used both hands and feet together, relying on his powerful strength, quickly leaped up from the bottom of the trunk of a big tree.

The trees in this forest have no branches more than ten meters from the bottom of the trunk, and the trunk is basically thicker than a human, so the initial climbing is more difficult.

After spending some effort, Zhou Chen climbed to a place where there were branches in the middle of the trunk. He stretched out his hand to grab a thick branch and prepared to climb up with strength.

However, at this moment, he found that the branch he was pulling suddenly came alive, and the front end of the branch was bent, bending over like a human hand, and entangled his arm.

Zhou Chen immediately clamped the tree trunk with his legs, and a scimitar appeared in his other hand, directly cutting the branch from the root.

However, his attack did not completely solve the problem. Instead, it caused other branches on the trunk to move up, bending down one by one, and lashing at him.

Zhou Chen couldn't cope with the attack from so many branches. In a hurry, his legs loosened and he quickly slid off the trunk.

When he reached the bottom, the branches of the tree still did not let him go, and its long branches bent close to the ground and continued to attack him.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Chen had to quickly leave the tree's attack range.

"So these trees are monsters!"

The girl with a ponytail appeared from behind a big tree beside him at this time, and said in surprise.

"It may not be exactly... When I didn't climb up, it didn't attack me either."

Zhou Chen felt that such trees might not necessarily be their opponents. If they were, then the situation would be really bad.

"Strange...I engraved marks on these tree trunks just now, and they haven't moved..."

The girl was also puzzled at this time.

"It may be because their trunks are not sensitive, and it is not as good for them to tick it if we engraved marks on them."

Zhou Chen guessed.

"Probably……"

The girl raised her head and looked at the tree just now,

"Should we try to chop it down? See what we can gain?"

She lifted the long-handled knife in her hand.

"forget it,"

Zhou Chen shook his head directly.

"If it's a single tree, it's okay, but it's all the same kind around it. When I attacked it just now, I found that the two trees around it were also moving. If we continue to attack it, it's very likely that we will be beaten by a group."

Zhou Chen just observed at the end that this kind of tree seemed to be able to drive the surrounding trees to attack together, so he didn't want to challenge this kind of tree monster in the current environment.

"Then let's evacuate as soon as possible. I feel that there will be problems if we stay in this kind of forest for a long time."

After listening to Zhou Chen's words, the single ponytail girl also realized that she should not mess around.

"The problem will definitely arise sooner or later... I hope I can find an area without trees..."

Zhou Chen felt pressure after discovering that the trees in this forest looked like monsters, subconsciously, he wanted to leave here.

But he also thought that the name of this survival survival was Silent Forest. Can they really find an area without trees?

The two then walked forward in the forest for about half an hour, when it was time for them to gather on the return trip.

"There are only trees in this direction, and nothing of value was found. Let's go back and look at the situation of others."

Zhou Chen felt that if he kept going, he would probably not gain much. He wanted to see if other survivors had any good discoveries.

"It would be great if the friend function could be used here..."

Single ponytail girls hate the practice of returning to the same way, but there is no way. They found out before that the friend function of the system cannot be used here, otherwise it will be much more convenient for them to communicate than they are now.

Turning around, following the marks made before, they began to return to the path.

After walking like this for about a quarter of an hour, they discovered a somewhat serious problem: the mark they left on the trunk was broken, and the unclear footprints on the ground disappeared without a trace.

"What's the matter? The mark I made has completely disappeared around here!"

The girl looked at the trunks of dozens of big trees around with her long-handled knife, and there was no trace of her staying here dozens of minutes ago.

"The mark I left is suddenly cut off here... the previous ones are all intact..."

Zhou Chen stepped on the ground near here that didn't seem to have changed much, and guessed the reason.

"It may be that these tree monsters have moved their positions... we continue to look forward..."

He then proceeded in the current direction, hoping that the mark on the trunk was only partly broken.

After walking with the girl for a while, he did not find the mark left by him. Instead, the girl saw the mark left by him again on a tree dozens of meters away from the side.

"My mark is over there...Did we go wrong?"

She was a little uncertain.

"It doesn't matter... It is difficult for us to reconcile with other people in the current situation... Let's continue our own exploration..."

Zhou Chen realized that the current situation could only rely on luck to meet other survivors, so he immediately gave up this idea.
