Transcendent Noble

The marks left by the Randal Expeditionary Force through the forest are particularly obvious. These marks do not refer to the heavy paw prints of the Golden Dragon lizard or the feces left by the war dogs, but are produced by disturbing the environment Impact.

Each piece of forest maintains a balanced ecology. The arrival of the Randal Expeditionary Force inevitably breaks the ecological balance of the forest. Forest birds start to fly, and beasts retreat. Even if the expeditionary force leaves a certain forest, the predatory beasts in the forest have to wait for the breath of the invaders to dissipate before they dare to return. During this blank period, the number of plant-eating animals in the forest will increase, which will attract wandering wild beasts. When the previous owner returns to the territory, it is necessary to use the sharp claw to determine who is the king of the forest.

The abnormal howl of the beast is as eye-catching as a beacon in the dark to the veteran tracker.

The action of the Randal Expeditionary Force in the forest is like a giant beast swimming across a calm lake. Even if it does nothing, it will leave conspicuous ripples on the water.

In view of this, Victor avoided the ant-man marching road and chose to go from the primitive forest in the north to the ruins of the Assyrian Empire. Thanks to Popo and Tiantian who brought the Rare Item of the adventurer oak barrel. Walking stick, otherwise Randal Expeditionary Force can only risk being discovered by Ant-Man and trek through the forest near the marching road.

Passing through the forest outside Silver Eagle City, Victor considered that Elf Race would send out scouts to track the Randal expeditionary force. However, the thread of destiny is already entwined with him, and there is no point in avoiding contact with Elf Race. Victor didn't really care about the tracking measures that Silver Eagle City might take.

After all, Elf Race can communicate, and Ant-Man is his mortal enemy.

In the past few months, Victor has learned Elvish language from the halfling brother. Through communication with them, he has a clearer understanding of Silver Eagle City, including the battle inheritance system and life level of the Spirit Emperor kingdom. system.

During his investigation of Black Forest undying creatures, he found the scout of Silver Eagle City 120 kilometers behind. There are 15 people in total, 10 war beasts, 5 wild elves war dancers, 3 tree elves Wind Travel archers, 4 dwarf ridge guards, 1 dwarf prophet, and 1 halfling adventurer.

The dwarf warrior brought 8 bighorn sheep as mounts and camels. The halfling adventurer’s animal companions are two ferocious black wolves. Elf warriors are all walking. Victor knows one of them. She is a wild elf female who was rescued by Victor in the Bumblebee Valley. She is now a third-rank war dancer with Battle Mark depicted on her cheeks.

With the strength of this team, they are unlikely to chase from Silver Eagle City to the vicinity of the Despair Forest. The orc lord along the way, don't dare provoke Lan Victor, is not merciful to the small group of elf scouts. They are well-dressed and do not have many signs of fighting. Victor believes that at least one of them still has a true powerhouse. She is probably Bobo and Tiantian's most respected good friend, the general of Silver Eagle City, the fifth-order wild elf war dancer-Yiluth Moonsong.

According to Victor's understanding, Botian brother and Elusy Moonsong are in the same group. At least Bobo and Tiantian go to the Azores temple to find Elf Race sacred relic, Elus. Yuege is an insider.

At the beginning, Victor perceives Elus Moonsong, who has the strength of the golden rank, in the Bumblebee Valley. She can now avoid Victor before he finds her companion. With this keen intuition, she can lead her men safely through the territory of the forest monster.

Iluth Moonsong It shouldn't be plunged into the dangerous forest of despair. Victor asked the halfling brother to leave an elf text to express kindness to the general of Silver Moon City. But as a human nobleman, Victor can be said to be uneasy about Elf Race.

The Alchemy Tower rune crystal that the queen alchemy ant desires is on Victor. His original idea was to use the rune crystal of Alchemy Tower No. 7 to absorb the crystal that controls the queen, so that he can use himself as a bait. , To attract the attention of Ant-Man Legion and help the human coalition gain the initiative on the battlefield.

The news of Abyss Demon was sent back to Centaur Hills. Whether Sylvia could organize a powerful mobile Legion became unknown. Then, if necessary, Victor can only hide in the sphere of influence of Silver Eagle City, drag Elf Race into the water, and force them to send troops to eliminate the main force of Ant-Man.

Victor will not be ashamed of this, he is helping Elus. Yuege is actually helping himself. The problem with the Randal Expeditionary Army is that there is no backup, and the Wild Spirit Spirit General Army is strong enough to protect themselves. They do not involve the energy of the Expeditionary Army and qualify to become Victor's backup.

If there is no fundamental contradiction between the two parties, Victor can exchange Elf Race’s sacred relic for the cooperation of Elus Moonsong.

He actually didn't want to touch that stuff at all.

The appearance of the Lord of Despair made Victor feel the pressure, because undying creatures are fearless, they will take the initiative to attack the passing creatures. If the Azores had undergone the change 1500 years ago, it would have become the nest of undying creatures. The days when the Randal Expeditionary Army easily "traveled" should come to an end.

Frequent battles will compress the space for explorers and even cause casualties. Neither the Randal Expeditionary Force nor the scout squad of Elus Moonsong could safely explore the ruins of the Assyrian Empire.

If the wild spirit Spirit General army is smart enough, she will soon bring her men to join the Randal expeditionary army.

Of course, Victor will not take the initiative to find the door, they have to ask for the asylum of the Randal Expeditionary Army.

For prudential purposes, Victor asked the team to maintain ample material reserves. Randal’s expeditionary force’s transfer became slow. Every half a month had to stop for ten days while investigating the environment. Are there undying creatures nearby? Resources are also collected and hidden supply points are set up to prepare for the next rainy and snowy season.

The situation in Azores is still unclear. If there are really powerful undying creatures there, the Randal Expeditionary Force must plan for the worst. Once a high-intensity confrontation breaks out, these hidden supply points will be the key to the survival of the expeditionary force.

In February of the water season, the expeditionary force traveled more than 3,000 kilometers from the outside of the Despair Forest, and the forest highlands pointed by the wayfinding sticks were clearly visible.

The right-wing scout commander Klaus sits cross-legged on the ground, with his sword-wielding maid Molina standing shoulder to shoulder, with his back leaning on a towering tree surrounded by five people. He dictated his expedition diary, which was written by Chong Ji on parchment.

"It’s been almost a year since the expeditionary army was launched. Except for a fight in Great Swamp and half-dragon human, we have hardly encountered a decent battle, let alone attrition. This is a miracle. , Is my master, the miracle brought to us by the noble Royal Highness Randal."

"primitive forest danger lurks on every side, there are powerful monsters, ferocious wild beasts, insidious poisonous snakes, and terrible ones. Undying creatures, but the most terrifying thing is the boundless darkness. It erodes the mind and will of people all the time. Little by little makes people lost in the illusion. Finally, they are swallowed by darkness and become part of the endless forest."

"Yes, the endless forest has the will. Its vastness and shadow will assimilate any intruder, even if a senior Knight like me can't find his way, he will either die of lost, hunger, or To be mutilated by monsters and beasts; either adapt to the will of the forest, forget the belief of being Knight, lose the glory of the family, deviate from the glorious path, and become a humanoid wild beast in the forest. What is the difference between this and death?"

"People's perception of the forest will gradually form a terrifying impression in the soul,'Where am I?' Am I lost?" This place is still safe. I don't know what dangers are ahead. Stay here, right? "These thoughts in my mind are denying myself... Fortunately, the noble master led me and my companions to conquer the forest of horror in my heart."

"The fierce warrior and the fierce war It’s very important that dogs can predict danger, but what is the danger? Active attack, defense in place, or retreat to relieve the danger? Fierce warriors and fierce war dogs cannot answer the most critical questions. If we choose the wrong way of coping , The result may be fatal."

"Always discovering the enemy in advance is the predominant condition for victory, and wise decision is the key to victory. What we see in the forest are trees, humus, and birds. Birds, animals, Insect, and the owner saw the traces of changes in time and space. His Light of Wisdom illuminates the entire Black Forest."

"The expeditionary army moved from the edge of the forest of despair, due to the strong The monsters or beasts fear the undying creatures in the forest of despair, so the edge of the forest of despair is safe. We don’t know where the edge of the forest of despair is considered, but the owner knows. The forest with the same trees is entirely different in the eyes of the owner Area, he can accurately calculate Out of the domination of undying creatures, if you change to another person, you must go through exploration and trial to determine the route. Because of the master's extraordinary wisdom, the expeditionary force created the miracle of traveling tens of thousands of kilometers in six months without any casualties. "

"The halfling adventurer Bobo and Tiantian call Randal the ninth rank Demi-God. I don’t think they are exaggerating..."

There is a rustle in the woods. At the sound of footsteps, Klaus stopped dictating and turned to see Rogers' majestic silhouette. Wearing a full set of leather armor and carrying a small pocket, he walked over and said hello: "Klaus, are you writing a diary again? What's the use of writing this stuff? With this time, it is better to practice the Visualization Technique or Randal Combat Breathing Technique taught by the master. "

Another harvest of the Black Forest march is the deep friendship of companions. Rogers and Klaus, who were born in the mountains, were originally from two worlds, but they are now like biological brothers.

Klaus was sitting on the ground, raising his head and said with a smile: "In the future, I will revise my diary into a biography, which is a precious treasure for future generations. If my biography can enhance the family heritage and be put on the shelf of the secret library by the lord, it will be the glory of Claus Randal Knight. "

Rogers shook the head. He couldn't understand the Knight brother's thoughts. He threw the little pocket in his hand to the opponent, sat down on the ground and said, "Then, this is the treasure I am going to dedicate to the master. Wait He rewarded me with part, and I divided you with half. "

Klaus opened his pocket and took out a handful of green-patterned amber from it, and said in surprise: "So much green-patterned amber, shouldn't it be worth a lot of money?" "

"When I smuggled mountain products with Uncle Hammer, green-patterned amber of this grade would sell for this amount. "Rogers stretched out three fingers and said triumphantly.

"30 Kingsall? "

"haha, it is 300 gold sols, there are 76 gold sols here, worth 22,800 gold sols. "

Klaus was taken aback by the price of green amber. He quickly put the amber in his hand back into the bag, scratched his head, and said hesitantly: "The master asked us to collect only food, medicine ingredient and Useful resources, don't do unnecessary things. If you offer amber, the owner may be upset. "

Rogers was grinned, whispered: "I originally took people in the vicinity to hunt wild boars and forest deer. Just after catching four wild boars, Mrs. Dili ran over and asked us to go to the woods to pick up treasure... It's amber. We rummaged under the leaves for a long time and found hundreds of purple-patterned ambers that I had never seen before, and took them all to Mrs. Di Li. I picked up some green-patterned amber she didn't want, and planned to give it to the master. "

He paused and gave Klaus a vague look. Klaus was helpless, so he had to let his sword-wielding maid avoid first, and when Molina walked away, he heard Rogers use lower The voice said: "Mrs. Di Li has taken away the purple-patterned amber, go and persuade her, the purple-patterned amber should be offered to the owner. Anyway, I will not hide treasure privately, this is not in compliance with the rules. "

Shanminying villages are divided into public property and private property. The prey captured by the mountain hunters must be assigned to the leader, and the leader will give priority to the hunter with the most fat part of the prey. Rogers joins the Randal smuggler Since the team, he has always adhered to the rules of the mountain people and won unanimous praise from the leaders of the caravan. The simple and honest youth of the mountain people regards this set of rules as a guideline. He is worried that Di Li will hide amber and fall out of favor in front of the owner, so he asks his best. Brother Klaus came forward to persuade Di Li to change her mind.

Klaus is younger than Rogers, but knows more about humanity than him. He didn't know whether to cry or laugh and said, "Master and the four The relationship between the ladies is not something we can talk about. Even if Mrs. Di Li is protecting the right-wing scouts along the way, we can't get involved in Lord Count's court affairs. "

"Court affairs?" "

"Oh, it's the housekeeping of the lord's mansion. "Klaus took a picture of his forehead, warned repeatedly: "You have to remember that Sylvia's wife is Mistress, and everything else is left alone... If you don't listen to me, it will be ugly to die." "

Rogers nodded, said: "Okay, brother, I listen to you." By the way, when we were digging amber, we found the remains of a piebald tiger. It had been dead for 2 months. I found a feather next to it. Look..."

As he said, he drew a long gray feather from behind, the length of an adult's arm.

Klaus took the feather, carefully After looking at it for a moment, lifts the head, his eyes solemnly said: "This is... the feathers on the wings of the eagle-tailed vulture. "

Clothtail vulture, a widespread scavenging bird of prey, is named after a snake tail behind it. Because of its bulky size, the secretary tail vulture is not good at flying. They rely on an alarming number of In competition for food, they will also spit out an extremely foul-smelling acid. If predators don’t want to stick to the stench of the panthera vulture, it is best to give the prey to the brittle vulture robber.

Rogers Biklow Si knows more about the eagle-tailed vulture, he nodded and said: "I think it is also the feather of the eagle-tailed vulture... With such a long feather, that eagle-tailed vulture may be as high as mine when it falls on the ground. "

Among the core members of the Randal Family, Rogers’ size is second only to Caligula. He is a fierce warrior over 2 meters tall.

According to the common sense of monsters, birds The size of vultures will not be too big. The snake-tailed vultures are already the largest bird known to mankind. The average height standing on the ground is about 1.6 meters. If they are larger, they simply can’t fly.

The feathers Rogers brought back were abnormal. Klaus seriously thought about it, stood up and said solemnly: "Go and call all the scouts back. I'll go to Mrs. Dili, and then take a look at the place where you found the feathers. "

Commander Klaus issued an order, and right-wing scouts including the dragon maid Dili were dispatched. They were divided into 7 squads, alternately covering and sneaking into the suspicious woodland.

In the water season in February, the sky is densely covered with dark clouds. Even if the woods are sparse, the light is dim like the evening, and the pale cold fog drifts in the woods, adding a ghastly atmosphere. The scouts did not light the torch, and their boots stepped on the decaying branches There was a creaking sound on the dead leaf. Klaus saw the remains of the piebald tiger mentioned by Rogers and made a gesture backwards to let the scouts disperse their guards. He and Rogers brought four source blood militiamen forward to inspect it. There was a wreck, but no more clues were found.

"Do you feel dangerous? "Klaus held the unsheathed gold long sword, turned his head and asked.

Rogers glanced at the ferocious war dog sniffing around, shook his head and said: "There is no danger... except for Insect nearby, there is even There are no living creatures. "

Klaus listened attentively and turned his inquiring gaze to Di Li not far away. Seeing the shrugged bladder of the other party, she said that she did not feel any danger either.

"Put one. Try Alien Mouse, everyone backs up a bit. "

Klaus waved his hand, and a monkey militia pulled a wildcat-sized alien rat from the cage and directed it to the woods for food with a whistle.

stomach rumbling with hunger jumps under the dead leaves to capture the Insect. Its arched leaves move up and down the ground, and within a short time it can run a distance of 100 meters.

Suddenly, thick rot leaves A big bulge, a two-meter-tall strange bird flapped its wings and got out from the ground. Its wingspan spread out over 6 meters. It has a hairless neck and a snake-like tail. It is a magnified one. The three-fold eagle-tailed vulture. Its eye sockets are flashing with pale flames, and its dark beak opens up and makes a harsh cry.

The alienated rat running under the leaves hears the strange bird’s voice. Tweet, and immediately stopped moving.

"It's undying creatures! "

Klaus did not hesitate to launch a charge and stab, and his whole body was like an arrow from the string, shooting like a thunder at the giant brittle vulture that had left the ground.

But someone moves faster than the veteran Knight. A slender silhouette flashed before Klaus's eyes. Ms. Di Li had appeared in front of the undying creatures, and the huge moon-shaped axe spouted three streams of light, cutting off the strange bird. His wings and claws sprayed black blood from the wound. Before the terrifying strange bird had time to make a second cry, Di Li had caught its beak and pressed its head under the fallen leaves.

The dragon maid Di Li changed her posture, and her boots stepped on the heads of undying creatures, and said with a smile: "Come here with a thick cloth and tie its eyes... The king will be interested in it. . "
