Chapter 15 Atmosphere

Natan City is a city built on the outskirts of the Youquan Mountains.

Because of its special geographical location, a large number of adventurers enter the city for repairs every day. They either have just come out of the Youquan Mountains or are waiting to enter the Youquan Mountains.

That evening, Leian finally arrived outside Natan City.

Not far from the city gate, Leian looked at the adventurers who were lining up to enter Natan City riding Warcraft, and felt something strange in his heart.

Along the way, there are people like him who walk on two feet, but most of them are adventurers with level 5 or 6 strength. Almost all those with level 7 or above strength are walking on magic beasts, especially those with glamorous appearance. There are many magicians, and each one of the magical beasts is taller and more powerful than the last.

Even a few days ago, Leian saw an eighth-level magical beast, the Dragon Tusk Elephant, which was the magical beast of an eighth-level magician.

This Dragon Tooth Elephant is famous for its huge size. Its body is comparable to a three- or four-story stone building. When it runs, the ground trembles slightly. No one who sees it is allowed to move far away.

"Why, I'm envious. With your strength, it's not a piece of cake to find someone to take over the Warcraft!"

Beside Leian, a burly blond man glanced disdainfully at the young men riding monsters and wearing gorgeous clothes, then patted Leian on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Leian turned around and smiled, but said nothing.

The big man's name is Derrick, a rare eighth-level warrior who does not have a substitute for a monster. During the journey, he may have noticed Leian's extraordinary strength and deliberately made friends with him. The two are now considered friends.

Derrick looked down upon those aristocratic children who cheered in front of them. In his opinion, those people who went to the Youquan Mountains were not for experience at all, but for fun.

Seeing that Leian didn't speak, Derrick didn't care and asked instead, "Are you planning to enter the city?"

Leian took a look at the sky. It was not far from nightfall. This time was not a good time for him who entered the Youquan Mountains for the first time. Thinking of this, he asked casually:

"If you don't go to the city, do you have other places to go?"

Derrick chuckled, "Of course, a real ascetic sleeps wherever he goes."

With that said, he turned around and walked towards the Youquan Mountains, "Follow me, I will take you to experience the atmosphere of the Youquan Mountains at night."

Although he didn't say it clearly, with Derrick's rich experience, how could he not see that Leian was just a newbie.

Although Leian didn't trust Derrick that much, he saw that he was not the only one going in the direction he was going, so he followed him in stride.

The two walked in tandem, and not long after walking, they came to a sparse forest. When they stepped into the forest, they truly entered the Youquan Mountains.

At this time, many people had gathered at the edge of the woods. Some of them were sitting in a circle in small groups, and some were sitting cross-legged alone.

Perhaps because it was still outside the Youquan Mountains, many people set up fires, roasting food and chatting in low voices.

The firelight illuminated the faces, and Leian could clearly see that most of them were experienced adventurers, and only one of them had a look of apprehension and longing.

Derrick picked up a few pieces of wood, walked to an uninhabited land, sat down cross-legged, and lit a small fire. Then, he took out a piece of dried meat from the leather package behind his back and started roasting it. .

Leian watched Derrick's movements, picked up some dead branches, and sat down opposite Derrick.

He followed Derrick's example and took out a piece of cooked dried meat from the package behind his back, and slowly roasted it.

Although there was a space ring, for safety reasons, Leian still carried a leather bag as a cover.

Next, the two of them chatted quietly while chewing dried meat. Derrick was talking most of the time, mainly talking about his past experiences.

Leian responded with a sentence or two from time to time, but his mind was thinking about the goal of this trip.

First of all, you need to find some Warcraft of similar strength to compete with, hone your combat skills, and improve your understanding of the realm of "potential".

Secondly, hunt some magic crystal cores so that you can buy a house of your own in the imperial capital when you return.

Finally, a contract was made with at least two level nine monsters, one as a means of transportation, and the other to stay in the imperial capital to protect the three of Barry. Thinking of the contracted monsters, Leian's mind wandered further, and he began to think about which monsters would suit his requirements.

Time passed little by little, and soon the earth was enveloped in darkness.

Under the cover of night, the Youquan Mountains lost the loneliness during the day. From deep in the mountains, one or two creepy beast roars could be heard from time to time.

At this time, the surrounding conversations suddenly became much quieter, until occasionally there was only one or two whispers.

Derrick stopped talking, crossed his legs and closed his eyes. He didn't know whether he was resting or practicing.

"Is this what Derrick calls the 'atmosphere of the Youquan Mountains at night'?"

Leian glanced at Derrick, put his thoughts away in time, closed his eyes, and completely integrated into nature, feeling the changes around him.

The night was getting darker, and perhaps because of getting used to those weird roars, people around him were already starting to fall asleep.

At some point, a slight disharmony in the natural environment suddenly entered Leian's heart. His heart moved, and he suddenly opened his eyes and looked deep into the woods.

After a few breaths, a faint voice came.

"Quick, we're leaving soon, hoo, we're out of the mountains, everyone, hoo... just hold on!"

The voice was intermittent, and there was an obvious sound of breathing. It was obvious that the speaker had run a long distance.

As this noise came, the people around them woke up one after another. Everyone opened their eyes and stared at the woods. Some people even drew their weapons.

Not long after, six people came out of the woods.

The six people were all in bad condition. They were all covered in blood. They were supporting each other and staggering. One of them even lost an arm. The wounds were not bandaged, and the broken bones could be clearly seen.

Seeing the miserable appearance of the six people, some were indifferent, while others were frightened and looked horrified.

Although they successfully walked out of the Youquan Mountains, the vigilance on the faces of the six people did not diminish at all, especially when facing the people around them, their eyes were still cold.

At the same time, they had no intention of stopping and resting, and continued to walk towards Natan City.

"Not so lucky!"

Just as Leian was watching the six people go away, Derrick's faint voice of appreciation suddenly came to his ears. He turned his head and glanced, only to see Derrick squinting his eyes and staring at the woods, not knowing what he had just expressed. Is it for those six people or something else.

Suddenly coming to such a place, most of the people present lost their sleep, and everyone started chatting softly again.

Time passed by in the middle of the night, and it was not far from dawn. Suddenly, there was another sound deep in the woods.

"Quick, quick!"

"what--"

Frightened screams came one after another. It was obvious that the movement this time was much louder than the one in the middle of the night.

And at this moment, suddenly——

"Roar!"

A terrifying roar suddenly covered the screams and reached everyone's ears.
