Chapter 566: A Coincidental Encounter
In the middle of a dense and gloomy jungle.
The mist was mixed with a faint smell of sea, and in the distance, the waves crashed against the reef with a 'bang' sound, occasionally mixed with a strange roar.
The four figures advanced slowly in the faint mist, and in front of them were three thirteen or fourteen-year-old boys and women, led by a stout skeleton, wearing a set of pale yellow leather armor and holding a long sword.
A man and a woman behind him were also in the same gear, lining up with him in a finished font and searching forward.
At the end of the walk was a woman in a white wizard's robe, who looked very young, holding a strange-looking wooden staff in her hand, and her long hair was tied into a ponytail at the back of her head, although the mist was wet, but her hair was not wet at all, and it beat behind her head with her footsteps, like a jovial elf.
This was Merlin's first piece of land after entering the waters of Cape Mo, an island about the size of Taila, probably because it was uninhabited, and it still maintained a primitive leopard, as far as the danger was concerned...... Merlin believed it must exist.
When the three children first went to sea, they were still a little nervous, but after a few battles, their nerves had been sharpened to some extent, and they were no longer as nervous as they were at the beginning.
Rustle rustle......
Footsteps on the ground piled with dry branches and dead leaves, making a monotonous sound, and occasionally the sound of a branch being trampled off.
The three children have a clear division of labor...... Of course, Robert is looking ahead, Chris and Tilling are in charge of the left and right, and Merlin seems to be at ease in the back, but her mental strength can always keep an eye on the surroundings.
Above them, a night falcon soared through the air, its piercing eagle eyes observing every inch of the ground beneath them.
So far, they haven't encountered any figures, which is a good thing in this regard, even if they are also wizards involved in this event, there is a possibility that they will fight each other.
'Ga~'
Suddenly, a piercing scream rang out, and a black shadow swooped down from the tree.
"Ah~"
Tireen exclaimed, her reaction was a little too fast, the long sword stabbed into the air, and just as the black shadow was about to fall, Merlin raised her hand, and an ice-blue ray hit the black shadow, and the black shadow fell directly to the ground like a stone, rolled a little, and there was no movement.
Robert hurriedly strode over, glanced down, and then picked up the black shadow and handed it to Merlin.
It was a fat squirrel, the size of this squirrel was almost as big as a house goose, the whole body was pale yellow, and the strange thing was that its face was a little like a human face, with ears on both sides of its head, and two sharp white fangs on the side of its mouth.
Merlin reached out and took the elven squirrel, frowned, and then carried the squirrel to find a place to put it at the edge of the woods, and then instructed the three students to collect some dry firewood. Come back and pile it together.
She reached out and pointed at the pyre.
Call~
The dry wood suddenly ignited a fire automatically, and the red halo looked a little hazy in the mist.
Robert crouched on one knee by the fire and lifted the squirrel over. Begin to carefully peel the skin, gutt, wash and peel, and then skewer on a makeshift barbecue rack.
As the fire burned, the fog in the vicinity seemed to be much smaller, and the surroundings were much clearer. Robert handled the squirrel, set up the barbecue grill, and just hung in the air and began to grill the squirrel meat.
Merlin condensed a few balls of water the size of pigeon eggs and threw them into her mouth, and suddenly she took out a spice box and handed it to Rob, who quickly opened the box and sprinkled the roast squirrel meat with seasoning.
As the rabbit meat gradually turned yellow and began to drip oil, the white mist in the woods gradually dispersed, and a rich aroma of meat began to permeate.
All around them, there were straight trees with no end in sight, no large bushes, no tall grasses, the occasional bare black earth and in some places thick dead yellow leaves, and then large swaths of low green meadows.
Each of the trees in the woods was unusually tall and straight, like spears stuck in the ground.
Robert picked up the barbecue grill, cut off the fattest piece with his sword and handed it to the other three students...... Of course, the boys had to eat more, and they couldn't get enough meat at all, but fortunately they all carried dry food with them, and it was almost the same to eat two pieces.
The squirrel meat is so tender that it tastes like a boiled piece of chicken, and the flavor of the seasoning is so delicious that you almost bite your tongue off.
Halfway through eating, Merlin's eyes flashed, she put the meat down, got up and looked the way she came, where the vigilant night falcon sent an alarm that someone was approaching.
"Master?" Robert looked at Merlin in surprise.
"There are guests coming. Merlin had a faint smile on her face.
A hazy figure appeared in the mist, and it didn't take long for three figures to appear in front of them.
"Tut-tut, I didn't expect to meet you here, ...... Robert"
Ya Qian walked out with her hands behind her back and her eyes wide. And next to him, of course, it was Jose and Marita.
"Ya Qian, Marita?" Tilling let out a low sigh, wanting to step forward and speak, but didn't know what to call it.
"Ignore these two traitors. Chris said with some resentment.
Robert looked at Marita, but suddenly found that the other party had changed so much in just a few days.
Marita's family was not wealthy in the first place, so she dressed up relatively plainly, but now, she is dressed in gorgeous clothes and smiling, and the most important thing is that she is no longer a girl.
Although he had already thought that he would not be able to meet each other, when he saw all this appear in front of him, Robert's heart was still an uncontrollable pain.
"I didn't expect to be able to meet Wizard Merlin here, I've already got 10 points, I don't know how much Wizard Merlin has gotten?"
Jose is a little proud, and he likes to suppress these weak people the most.
"Robert, I didn't expect that you all came in, and you are really not afraid of death. Ya Qian deliberately mocked.
In the world, all kinds of people can see it, such as Yaqian and Jose, who look down on those who are struggling at the bottom, but they don't know that in Mei Lin's eyes, they are at the bottom.
"Ya Qian, don't go on endlessly, we can't get in and don't care about your. Chris shouted, but was glared at by Ya Qian, and immediately retracted his neck.
Robert ignored Aaron and looked at Marita, a girl who seemed to have become a complete stranger overnight.
"Marita, Ya Qian is not a good person to get along with, if you still take me as a friend, you will leave him, he is too attentive, just to play with you. Robert advised, he couldn't bear it after all.
Marita frowned, and a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes: "Robert, I originally thought you were a good person, but I didn't expect that it was also the mentality of hating the rich." ”
