The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 306 Forced to Divert
The road they walked was a relatively prosperous business road, because the caravans were all guards, and the number of nearby monsters was significantly less than other places.

But precisely because there are so many caravans, there are also some guys who do business without capital and wait for the opportunity to peep, mainly relying on their familiarity with the surrounding terrain, they rush to the Dragon Forest like a gust of wind.

There are still dangers, especially if they have only one carriage like this, they are more likely to be regarded as fat sheep by robbers.

As soon as the crowd heard this, Elma put the notes in her pocket and picked up the staff. Kegel and Mistrow, who said no one would admit defeat, also shut up tacitly at the same time. The back of the carriage turned over and jumped to the top of the carriage, standing high enough to observe the surrounding movement.

Anyway, he is also a monk, Lin Tianci's eyes are much better than others, every time he encounters troubles, he always jumps out to see the situation first.It was also because his eyes were better than others that he found that there was indeed a large group of people coming from the other end of the commercial road, but these people were not robbers.

The clothes are messy, and some of them are still injured. Basically, they are all old, young, sick and disabled. The march of the team has no rules at all, and it is a mess at all.

The only two carriages in the team were full of food and other supplies, and some adventurers were on guard on both sides of the team and around the carriages.

This looks more like a refugee contingent.

Lin Tianci told his teammates what he saw, and the others were not only not relieved but became more vigilant.

The refugees are pitiful, if they are too careless, the refugees don't mind being a robber at all.Mishandled refugees pose a greater threat than bandits.

Both sides moved along the pipeline, and it didn't take long for them to meet each other.

However, the expected scene of refugees turning into robbers did not appear. It may be because of the double-headed mace placed by Leticia on the side of the carriage, or because of the serious and nervous expression on Kegel’s face holding the ax beside her. look.They never thought that Kegel's expression was because the carriage was relatively high, and they were frightened...

Redicia's mother said before that Sunset Fort is in a state of war, and the two city-states to the south of it declared war on Sunset Fort at the same time.

Since there is a war, it is not surprising that there are refugees. Judging from the direction, it should be that Trier Town does not accept them, so they have to move towards the larger city Wanghai Port to see if they can find a place to settle down.

The two sides passing by face to face just crossed in this way, and there was no conflict.But when the carriage entered near the center of the refugee team, Leticia greeted the adventurers guarding the refugee carriage.

"Lane."

It was a ranger with a longbow on his back and two knives on his waist. He was also very surprised when he saw Leticia, and he responded happily, then went to the carriage and greeted her in the same way.

Looks like someone I know.

"Where is Iona? Isn't she with you?"

The 'Iona' that Redicia mentioned was also their classmate, and she was also the younger sister of the adventurer named Ryan in front of her.

"That girl, after graduating from the Magic Academy, she actually stayed at the Academy for further studies. I also hope that there will be one more spellcaster in my team."

After a few polite words, Leticia asked:

"What's the situation? Has the war spread so far?"

She refers to the ranks of refugees surrounding her.

"It's not about war, it's about undead creatures."

"Undead creature?"

Ryan seemed surprised:

"You don't know? During this period of time, there are news of a large number of undead creatures appearing everywhere."

Leticia had no choice but to say haha ​​that the Four Dharma Kings' team had traveled a long way.

It is normal for adventurers to run around the world, and Ryan didn't care too much, explaining:

"Beginning about half a year ago, people often witnessed the appearance of a large number of undead creatures, large enough to fight against the regular army. These people came from Locke Town under the Huifeng Mountains, which has been completely occupied by undead creatures. During this time, Noisy Water City is still there. Busy fighting against Sunset Fort, a large group of undead creatures suddenly appeared from behind, there is no way to protect the safety of the people of Rockman, I heard that there are even headless knights in the army of undead creatures."

"The Headless Horseman? Are you sure you read it right?"

"Uh, well, the matter of the Headless Horseman is actually a rumor, but it is a fact that undead creatures suddenly appear all over the world."

Ryan only heard about it, because he had seen the headless knight with his own eyes, and it was really rare for a guy who survived to go to the tavern to brag. Most of the witnesses reported that the weaker skeleton knight or necromancer was regarded as a headless knight. knight.

After hearing this, Alma came out of the carriage, greeted Ryan and said:
"Those undead creatures suddenly appeared? Aren't they corpses from nearby cemeteries or battlefields?"

"No, there are no signs of undead creatures at all in some places. They suddenly came to the vicinity through a portal, and each undead army is led by a powerful undead creature. It's almost like an agreement."

Leticia and Alma glanced at each other, they didn't expect that such a big thing happened in the past six months when they just left their hometown to go to Yamen City to pick up the mission.

But to put it bluntly, no matter what the reason for this kind of thing is, it has nothing to do with the four Dharma Kings' team as adventurers, because the undead creatures that form an army size cannot be settled by one or two teams, and it is also difficult to deal with them. Must go to the army, this is what the leaders of various mortal countries need to worry about.

Mistrow interjected:

"Near Locke Town...could it be the ancient battlefield east of the misty forest? There are a lot of corpses and dead souls there."

"Who knows, anyway, our job is to escort these refugees to find a safe place to settle down."

Ryan smiled and said:
"Do something good and hope to have a good pregnancy after going to the underworld."

So there are all kinds of adventurers, there are good people and bad people, some are mercenary, and some are helpful.

–‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

It's normal to meet an acquaintance on the way, and there are quite a few acquaintances in the circle of adventurers.They just greeted each other, chatted casually for a few words, and then dispersed, doing what they should do.

It is not new to meet refugees halfway. No matter in the East or the West, it has long been common for mortal emperors to conquer each other.

However, the reason why these refugees fled was the army of undead creatures, and the location where they appeared would greatly affect the next trip of the Four Dharma Kings' team.

They originally planned to turn to the north after going to Cui Er Town, the second stop was Locke Town, and then take a boat across Yuanxing Lake to Huan Shui City, and then headed for Sunset Fort.

But these refugees escaped from Locke Town, where there is an army of undead creatures comparable to the size of the army, and there are even rumors that there are even giants like the Headless Horseman.

Lin Tianci doesn't quite understand how dick the Headless Horseman is, but he will ask.

Leticia, who changed shifts with Mysteria, explained:

"The Headless Horseman is a high-level undead creature. It not only possesses the same wisdom as ordinary people, but also possesses great strength. Even if all of us are enemies, we may not be able to escape."

Yes, escape, not win.After all, the current magicians are still too low.

Alma continued:

"The Headless Horseman's level is around level 50, which is completely beyond our ability to deal with it."

As I said before, the strength evaluation standard used in the West is the 50-level system, and [-] levels are roughly equivalent to the level of a monk.

This is indeed completely unbeatable, and whether you can escape depends on the mood of others.

Lin Tianci had a little understanding of the strength of undead creatures like the headless horseman, but he said strangely:

"How is this level judged? Or will you be struck by lightning after breaking through the level like us monks?"

Lin Tianci will know that this hierarchy is due to the system, and how the locals in the West will judge it is a mystery. Can't everyone have a system?

"You monks will be struck by lightning?"

So Lin Tianci explained his breakthrough a few days ago, which also made everyone feel a little... awed by the existence of monks.

Breaking through and being struck by lightning is a bit too unique in the eyes of Westerners.

"The information on the hierarchy mainly comes from the information left by the ancient elves, and they were the first to divide monsters into different levels according to their strength."

In other words, the information that Redicia and the others knew that the Headless Horseman was an undead creature around level [-] came from the translation of ancient elf documents.

However, because the data of the ancient elves is too old, many monster data are incomplete, which requires adventurers to make their own judgments based on experience.

But this leads to another question. The level of monsters can be judged from the data. How to calculate the level of mortals?
The monks have the third rank and ninth grade of heaven, earth and human, and every time they break through, there are clear traces to trace. How about mages like Leticia and Alma?
They will not be struck by lightning, and they will not have an obvious "sense of paragraphs". How can they determine their own level?
This is really difficult to distinguish, so Westerners chose a simple and crude method.

Ordinary people who have not been trained at all, are divided into levels between 1 and 10, including the old, the young, the sick, and the disabled.

After a certain degree of training, a warrior equipped with weapons and simple armor, if he can face two goblins head-on, then he is a level 15 character.

Because goblins are level 5-10 monsters, being able to deal with two at the same time without taking damage means that he has reached the level 15 standard.

In short, Westerners regard monsters as a standard to measure their own strength level, and what level of monsters they can beat represents their own level.

For example, the members of the Four Dharma Kings' team are all over level 30, and they all have the confidence and strength to fight against level [-] monsters alone.

However, this system of dividing strength into stages based on combat power is not reliable, because Mistro basically has no ability to fight frontally. He is best at divination spells, followed by protection. type, there is no way to determine the grade.

What's more inaccurate is that when the level is low, it is convenient to test how many levels you have, but when you are strong, you need to find a stronger monster to test. If you are not careful, you may lose it, so the people of the Four Kings team They all know that they are only over 30 levels, but it is completely impossible to tell how much "more than 30" is, or even whether they have reached it, and it is too dangerous to go to a 40-level monster to fight one-on-one.
