The strongest lord system

Chapter 247
"The road I'm talking about is in the front, but it's very hidden. Weeds are overgrown along the way, so you may need to move forward while clearing the road, and there may be some wild animals around, but it shouldn't be a problem. Anyway, I am I haven't encountered it before." Zeni said, pointing to the woods sandwiched between two mountain ranges in the distance.

Allen looked at the location here for a while.This is roughly the direction southwest of Stormwind City.It's about four to five thousand meters away from Stormwind City.And looking at the surroundings, it seems that no one has been here for a long time.

"Are you sure it's here. Why do I feel that there is no way here." Allen said doubtfully.

"My lord, you can rest assured. I will lead you the way, but you'd better line up a few soldiers to follow me and clear the road, otherwise I think it will be difficult for the cavalry behind you to go." Zeni As he spoke, he led them to the front, as if they were groping for something among the woods.

Indeed, their team not only has walking infantry, but also more than 100 cavalry. It is really inconvenient to walk on the weedy trail.

"Zach, you lead a group of people to follow Mr. Zeny, and clean up the bushes and weeds on the road. It's convenient for us to pass."

"Yes." Zach nodded.

He walked to the side of the guards in front and ordered: "Soldiers of the guards, one company and one squad, come with me with hoes, machetes and other tools."

"Yes!"

Ai Lu's eyes fell on the cavalry in the team again, their armor and knight spears, plus the horses.It's really a bit difficult to walk here.

"Victor."

The new captain of the cavalry, after hearing Allen's shout, immediately drove the horses over.

"My lord, what are your orders?" Victor said, looking at Allen.

Allen pointed to Zach and the others who were exploring the road ahead and said: "They are clearing the road now, but I think it is really not easy for you cavalry to walk on such a road. So you take your people to the end, and the front It should be more convenient for you on the road that other people have traveled.”

"Yes."

Allen beckoned to the air again, and immediately Xue Ye flew over with the Hippogryph. This time she did not land, but stayed in mid-air.The Hippogryph flapped its wings slightly, maintaining their flying posture.A gust of wind moved Alan's army.

"We will take the trail they said in a while. But some beasts may appear. So you take your horned eagle knight in the air and pay more attention to vigilance, and let me know immediately if there is anything. "

"Okay. I understand, but I do seem to see a trail in the woods ahead. But it seems that no one has walked through it for a long time, and you have to be careful." After finishing speaking, Xue Ye drove As the hippogryph flew back into the air, she said something to the other hippogryph knights in the air, and those hippogryph knights dispersed one after another.It is constantly hovering in the surrounding air, and it seems to be scouting the surrounding situation.

"Master Alan. Is there really a way to Silvermoon City?" Claire next to Alan asked softly.Claire didn't bring anything with her when she came out this time, just a simple leather armor with two short knives hanging from her waist.

"Didn't they just say that there is a way, there should be." Allen said, he has been watching the situation ahead.

"My lord, follow us."

Zeni and the others in front waved and shouted at them.

It seems that they have already determined and sorted out the intersection of the road.

"Okay. Let's go, everyone pay attention, and report immediately if there is any situation." Allen drove the remaining horses forward.

When Allen walked in, he had clearly seen a path that Zack and the others had sorted out. The weeds, shrubs and stones in the middle had been sorted out by them, but there were still some on the road ahead.

Allen took a brief look at the width of the road, and the clean road was enough for two cavalry to drive abreast.It is quite suitable for their current march, but the speed of the march is still a bit slow to clear the road while marching, and the soldiers who cleared the road at the front exhausted their physical strength very quickly. Not only did they have to clear the road quickly Branches on the road, and shrubs and boulders that block the way.So it is necessary to change a group of people almost every ten minutes or so.

Slowly their army has been walking on the forest path in this mountain range for almost several hours.The surrounding area is very dark, and the branches and leaves of the big tree above have almost directly blocked all the light.Sometimes there are ridges formed by huge rocks around, or there are strange stone ridge clouds.

If it weren't for the sound of the hippogryph screaming and flapping wings from time to time, Allen was a little worried that the elves would get separated from them.

There may be small animals walking around, but they are all harmless, so there is no danger.

As the night gradually darkened, the soldiers had already picked up the torches in their hands.At this time, some wild beasts began to sound around, because the coming of night also showed that it was time for them to hunt.But because of the large number of teams that broke into their living area, even if they did not show their fangs easily for a while.

"My lord, we've been on the road for a day. I think we should camp here. Take a rest, and go on the road tomorrow morning." At this time, Zeni and Zach walked to Alan's side and said .

Allen thought about it.It is still more dangerous to travel late at night, and it seems that there are indeed some wild animals around.

"Okay. Order the team in front to stop. And check the surrounding situation. Keep the cavalry's horses in the middle to prevent them from being attacked by wild beasts at night." Allen ordered.Compared with people, the targets of those beasts were more likely to be the horses of their cavalry, so Alan placed the horses in the middle of their team.

"Yes."

"Stop moving forward and prepare to camp."

"Cavalry, come to the center with the horses."

Allen looked at the sky, but could still hear the sound of the Hippogryph flying.Allen really admired these hippogryphs for flying the elf archer in the air for such a long time. Although they should stop on some trees to rest halfway, their endurance is generally amazing.

Soon, seeing the flames of Allen's team stop moving in the forest, Xue Ye drove the Hippogryph down.

Allen saw Hippogryph and Xue Ye staying on the tree, and he shouted: "We are resting here today, and you let your clansmen come down to rest too."

"En." Xue Ye nodded, and she patted the Hippogryph.Soon they flew up again, and they should have gone to notify their companions.

The surrounding soldiers have already left some obstacles and so on, so that the range of their camp can be greatly expanded.And a bonfire was lit around them, so that they could not only understand the surrounding situation, but also prevent some wild beasts from attacking.

"Alan." Xue Ye jumped directly from the tree, her hippogryph stayed on the tree, and a dozen other hippogryphs also landed on the tree above their camp.

Allen looked at Xue Ye and said, "It's hard work for you to stay in the sky for so long. Your hippogryph has no problem flying for such a long time."

"It's nothing, our elves are very light. And the strongest hippogryphs are their endurance. Even if you are tired, you just need to rest on the tree for 10 minutes." Xue Ye brushed her hair lightly. , while saying.

"Well. You should also take a good rest. We have to hurry tomorrow. By the way, the food we prepared is all meat but there seems to be some steamed buns. You..." Allen suddenly looked at Xue Ye with a little embarrassment and said, because he knew Elves don't eat much meat.

"It's okay, didn't I say it before, we can extract nutrients from nature, and this is a forest. Do you think that elf will starve to death in the forest." Xue Ye chuckled lightly.

"Almost forgot." Allen smiled and touched his head.

Soon, cooking smoke rose in their camp.

In general, if someone camped out at night with some common sense, they would not light a fire to eat.Because the aroma of food often also attracts hungry beasts.

But Allen's situation is different, because they are a team of hundreds of people.Unless there are a surprisingly large number of beasts living in groups, they will not pose any threat to them.And even if someone came to attack them without knowing what to do, it would only add game to them.

"My lord, here it is." Zach walked over and handed Alan the food for tonight.It is a white steamed bun and broth.

Then he handed a piece of food to Claire next to Allen.

"Thank you." After Claire took the food, she walked to a fire next to her and ate quietly.

Allen took the food and leaned against the tree next to him.

"Don't forget to arrange a vigil when you rest at night. Although we don't have to worry about wild beast attacks, we still have to take necessary precautions," Allen said.

"Yes. I have already arranged these." Zach said.

The people around also began to eat dinner.After all, at noon, they could only eat steamed buns while on their way.It's good to be able to sit and eat comfortably like this, and there is also delicious broth to drink.

"Zach, you were born as a hunter before. I'm completely dizzy here, and I don't know where we have gone. You should know roughly." Allen asked Zach next to him while eating.

Zach said: "We are now west of our Stormwind City, but we probably only walked less than [-] kilometers, maybe even shorter."

"It seems that this road is really not easy to walk." Allen shook his head helplessly.

"And this is when we didn't encounter any accidents along the way." Zach had a serious expression on his face.

"Did you find anything? Could it be that there are some powerful beasts in this mountain range!" Allen said with a frown.

"Actually, when I was exploring the road along the way, I observed it. When we first entered this path, all I saw were the feces and footprints of some very ordinary beasts. Most of those beasts were our guards. One or two army soldiers can deal with it." Zach said, looking around: "But when we walked farther and farther, I found some footprints of monsters, which I also encountered when I was hunting before. I have experienced some monsters, so for my own safety, I have a better understanding of some of their habits."

"There are monsters here! Will the beasts or monsters in our current position pose a threat to us?" Allen asked worriedly.

"If it's just here, there should be no problem. At most, there are some first-level monsters haunting. But what I'm worried about is." Zach looked into the distance: "We have a long way to go in the future, and we will Not sure about anything."

Allen sighed and said, "We're here now, and we can't give up halfway. Let's be more careful along the way."

"Yes."

Allen clapped his hands after eating what was in his hand.Walking to Claire's side, he said, "I'll go over there to have a look. You can rest early after a while, and you have to hurry tomorrow."

"Yeah." Claire nodded, and continued to eat what she was holding.

do not know why.Allen felt that Claire had been silent all along the way, as if she had something on her mind.

In the corner of the camp is the resting place for Zeni and his team.

"Mr. Zeni, you have worked hard all the way." Ai Lu walked over to say hello, and by the way, he looked at the few people who were traveling with them, although they were sent by the chamber of commerce.But he still had a certain degree of vigilance, after all, he still didn't know what the other party was thinking of helping him obtain Silvermoon City.

"My lord, we businessmen often run outside, and we are used to it. It is really hard work for you to let an earl follow us." With a very professional smile on his face, Zeni also held a The bottle of wine was handed over and said: "This is the fine wine of our chamber of commerce. Do you want to taste it, Lord City Master? You can also distribute it to your soldiers to taste."

Allen frowned and waved his hands and said, "No need. There are rules in our army that you can't drink while marching."

"That's it, then just pretend I didn't say it." Zeni rubbed his head in embarrassment.

"Okay. I just came here to say something. It might be a little dangerous next time. You should be more careful along the way." Allen said.

"Well, I understand, my lord." Zeni said.

Allen returned to his original place, and Claire had already fallen asleep leaning against a tree beside her.Moreover, Xue Ye and the elves were leaning on the branches of the tree, not afraid of falling off.

I hope there will be no accidents along the way.

After the soldiers finished their dinner, most of the people have slowly fallen asleep.
