In the candlelight, Thor picked up his small iron round shield in one hand and his long sword in the other, and looked left and right. Then he carried the round shield behind his back and the sword at his waist, both of which were now within his reach.

Then Thor began to silently put on his own armor, from shin guards, leather armor, bracers, gloves, helmets, ...... Very well equipped.

This is a set of protective gear that Xiugus later helped him re-get, and he originally thought that he would use it for a long time, but he didn't expect this day to come so soon.

A few bottles of potions, a small leather bladder, a few pieces of cotton paper, and a few charcoal pens from the fire, there were not many things to bring. ...... Oh, it doesn't seem like much.

Shugues silently glanced at the sword at Thor's waist, and began to wonder for the first time how powerful his two daggers could be in the open wilderness.

The bottom of the well was quiet, and the atmosphere was not heavy.

Both Thor and Shogues knew very well that if they wanted to advance to gain greater power, entering the wilderness must be an unavoidable link, and now it was just ahead of schedule.

Before leaving, Hughes pondered what effect he would have on the world if he died, and finally came to a sad conclusion that it would have no effect.

Thor thought more, after all, his revenge was not yet complete, and he had only decided to be with Erin two days ago, if he suddenly died in the wilderness today for no apparent reason...... Well, it's a good joke too.

Under the eastern parapet, the group saw Loton waiting in full gear, dressed in light metal chain mail, which meant that he was prepared to take more damage for the team.

And Valle came galloping, dressed in leather armor from nowhere, with a short sword hanging from his waist, and a loose dome helmet that was a little funny, but it looked quite like that.

Nowadays, in the adventurous atmosphere around the town, leather armor is still the mainstream armor, and the heavy metal armor is too burdensome, and it can't run in the wilderness, and few people will step on the battlefield impermeable.

Lorton crouched down and fell asleep on a covered slab under the parapet, revealing a knee-high sword-wide gap.

There's an exit here, and I don't know if it's the tail left behind by stowaways who want to blend in with the town.

"We ...... Don't you go through the main entrance of the town?" asked Thor.

The north and south gates of the town are always guarded by members of the Guardian Group, and the interrogation of unfamiliar faces will be stricter, but for the people of the town who can tell where they came from, whether you are an old man or a child, they will be allowed to pass.

As for whether you go to the wilderness to get rich or die, that's your own story.

Lorton crawled halfway out, looked at the outside of the parapet for a moment, and then retracted.

"No, why bother leaving the guards with nothing to talk about. ”

"What's more important is that if I don't come back, you don't have to tell my family. That way, at least they wouldn't be too sad and would still be able to keep the speculation of disappearance, thinking that I had just left town and lived a life beyond their imagination. ”

"Let's go, the patrol officers on the parapet just now have just passed, take advantage of it now. ”

With that, Lorton took the lead and drilled through the parapet.

Standing outside the parapet, the four of them were in a somewhat complicated mood. Excitement, nervousness, trepidation, and so on all rolled together, and even for Lorton himself, this was the first time he had stepped out of his father's power and into the wilderness.

This is the wilderness that everyone has heard of, fantasized about, feared, and longed for.

It seemed that even the air around them was a little different from that in the town, and although everyone's dark vision was only five or six paces away from them, it did not affect them from feeling a vast and vast sense of desolation from the distant wind.

Lorton crouched down and erected the stone slab inside the parapet to re-camouflage, then stood up and clapped his hands.

"About four directions, if we continue along the east side here, we will enter the Sleeping Forest. Usually adventurers in the town who have not accepted the commission will also target the Sleeping Forest, which is rich in products and has a high probability of encountering battles. ”

"We can also redirect to the north and get to Logwood in a few days, but we're only on a short-term adventure today, so there's not much value in exploring. ”

"If you go around to the west, you can reach the Yar Mine at the foot of the Grams, but the plains are too open and overgrown to make any sense. ”

Lorton gave a general introduction to the surrounding terrain, in fact, with his adventure qualifications, he could directly decide the direction for everyone, but he didn't want to be too arbitrary, after all, choosing the direction also chose the next encounter and ending.

"It's too far to the west, and what else is there to the south besides the Endless Sea?" Thor asked.

Lorton looked down and thought about it.

"To the south, there are some woods and shrubs along the way, and if you look closely, you can find herbs in them. ”

"After two hourglasses through the woods, you can reach the beach where the waves have washed out, and after an hourglass along the beach to the west, you can reach the foot of a mountain, and there is a small castle halfway up the mountain, which is said to have been like a lighthouse on the sea long ago. ”

"What's in there?" said Valle, a little excited.

"I went there a year ago with my father's team, but it was empty except for the climb."

"Later, I heard that a group of birdmen occupied it, and then a demonic beast drove away the birdmen and inhabited there, I don't know if it is still there, but it is not rational to face the demonic beast with our current strength. Lorton dismissed everyone's superfluous thoughts in time.

"Birdmen!?Is it that the group is mostly female, with sharp claws on their hands and feet, but their body and appearance are similar to that of human women, and they don't wear anything?"

"This ......," Lorton twitched, his cheeks twitching, feeling that his adventure experience was too shallow after all to answer such a profound question.

"Just to the south, we didn't carry any food, and the four hourglasses were just right for a short adventure. After a few adventures and a few more gradual pick-ups, we head out into the forest. Thor tentatively made a suggestion.

"That's south. Seeing that there were no objections, Lorton waved his hand to make a decision, and then pulled out the magic hourglass that hung on his chest and was glowing with a warm shimmer at the moment.

This magic hourglass is very small, the size of a small fingertip, and can confirm the passage of time by the scale on the surface and the discoloration of the sand.

Thor has always wanted to get one, and if he has the time, he can do something more accurately and planned, but unfortunately there is no sale in Gray Curtain Town.

Magical goods usually arrive in the territory from farther afield, and only spread to the surrounding towns when the demand on the new town side is saturated.

After the direction was decided, everyone finally took the step of adventure.

It's an adventure, but it's just an ordinary walk.

The team was stretched horizontally, not far from each other, with Lorton and Shogues on either side of the team on guard, and Thor and Valle in the position of being protected in the group.

As he walked, Thor lowered his head and made some notes on the sandcotton paper with charcoal, and he wanted to stick to the partial map in each adventure, so that as he became more and more experienced in future adventures, the map would eventually be pieced together.

Along the way, Loton kept his voice down and kept explaining some common sense to everyone, such as not talking loudly in the wilderness, and not detaching from each other's dark vision. Diagonal areas such as southwest and southeast are unknown areas, where there are few human footprints and the adventure environment is extremely unstable.

At first, the area around the town was fine, at least open and easy to walk, but as everyone went around the south gate of the town and went south, the road became more difficult.

It's more like it's moving, it's more like it's clearing the wasteland.

The crowd had to draw their weapons and sweep away obstacles and cobwebs along the way, digging through the bushes or weeds.

No matter how much you suppress your own movements, the sound of branches whipping on your body is unavoidable.

Everyone knew that they were already in danger at any time, so they all tensed their nerves, and the four teenagers who had not passed the coming-of-age ceremony finally had an adventurous appearance.
