Chapter 370: Giant Wood Forest
Somewhere in the Giant Wood Forest, in the dimness of the night, Hiraku was at the forefront, fist-sized fireballs floating above his head, illuminating the neighborhood.
Although such a move was redundant for him, he had to think about the mother and daughter behind him.
With the sword in his hand, he kept slashing at the bushes blocking the front of him, opening up a passable path.
I don't know how many days have passed since that day, and Lisa and Rosa have finally come out of the grief of Dennis's death.
After all, they have been walking in dangerous areas for a long time as merchants, and they have long looked down on life and death, and they originally thought that even if their relatives died, they would not feel much sadness.
But the facts told them that even if they looked down on life and death, they were still immersed in sadness for three days.
When they came out of their grief, Xiluo led them into the Giant Wood Forest.
The Giant Wood Forest is one of the two forbidden places in the Northern Continent along with the Wastestone Wilderness, and unlike the Wastestone Wilderness, the danger of the Giant Wood Forest lies mainly in the wide variety of monsters.
Most of the monsters in the wastestone wilderness are nocturnal, and the monsters in the Giant Wood Forest, regardless of the time of day, have a large number of monsters active.
The main reason for this situation is that the towering giant trees are standing one by one.
The huge canopy of trees obscured the sky, and there was basically no difference in the forest at night or during the day, and a special magnetic field of the forest class disturbed the time senses of all creatures in the forest.
Not only the creatures that live in the forest in the first place, but even outsiders will be disturbed for a short time after entering the forest.
"Here we are, now let's take a break here."
With the last sword, he split the thorns in front of him, revealing a relatively large space, which was exactly the place that Xiluo had found when he was exploring his path before to provide a short rest.
With Lisa Rosa and her daughter in her hand, Xiluo stopped, then gathered some wood nearby, lit it with magic, and a small bonfire was lit in a short time.
In this place, Xiluo did not dare to use fire, it was full of plants, and if he accidentally set it on fire, even he would suffer, not to mention Lisa and Rosa.
It's nice to be able to maintain this minimal level of lighting.
Lisa and Rosa did not complain about this, they walked in the danger zone all year round, where they were, what they could and what they could not do, they were very clear.
"You guys rest first, I'll just watch." Seeing the tired looks of the mother and daughter, Xiluo spoke, and the concern could be heard in his tone.
"I'm sorry for you." Lisa smiled guilty at Xiluo, but she didn't say anything polite to him, and lay on the ground with Rosa in her arms, and fell asleep as soon as her eyes were closed.
This is the second time they have rested since entering the Giant Wood Forest,
Seeing that they had all fallen asleep, Xiluo added some fuel to the fire, and then sat down on the spot, closed his eyes, and recuperated.
He didn't feel too tired, but he felt that his state was just a little worse than when he was rested, and it didn't affect anything.
This level of fatigue can be fully recovered after just squinting for a short while.
Although it is also resting, Xiluo gives people a completely different feeling from Lisa Rosa's mother and daughter.
Lisa Rosa's mother and daughter, as they see, are just resting in the forest, while Xiluo gives people a sense of integration, as if he is one with the forest, and he is a part of the forest.
If you look closely, you will find that Xiluo's breathing is completely different from that of the mother and daughter.
There is a special rhythm to his breathing, and this rhythm resonates with the forest, which is why there is such a change.
It's just that Xiluo himself doesn't seem to know, when he is awake, his breathing rhythm is very normal, and although there is a difference between them and Rosa, the feeling has not changed much.
But when he pretended to sleep and rested, his breathing would always subconsciously become like this, so he hadn't realized that he still had such an ability.
Suddenly, Xiluo opened his eyes violently and stood up violently, and the state of being one with the forest was interrupted the moment he opened his eyes.
He turned around, his face to the side, his eyes staring sharply ahead, and a trace of murderous aura emerged from his body, like a beast that chooses people and devours them.
"This gentleman, I have no malicious intent, can I restrain your killing intent a little?" At that moment, a voice reached his ears, and a young girl who looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old and carried a longbow appeared in front of him.
The girl has long blond hair and wears a light and revealing leather armor, which accentuates her delicate figure even more.
Her face is delicate, as if carefully carved by a master craftsman, but without the stiffness of artefacts, it is pure natural beauty!
What made Xi worry the most was that her ears were different from herself, Lisa Rosa and others, very long and pointed.
Is it because of pollution that it has become like this?
Xiluo felt that it was not, because he felt that the pollution accumulated in the other party's body was quite small, and it could not reach the level of obvious abnormality.
Seeing that Xiluo was still staring at her, and did not mean to restrain her killing intent, the corners of the girl's mouth twitched, thinking that she had not made a good explanation, and then began to explain in a hurry: "I really have no malice, it's just because I saw the fire here and thought the forest was on fire, so I came to take a look." ”
"I think you should know that if a fire breaks out in the forest and is not stopped in time, the consequences will be serious."
Hearing this, Xiluo nodded and restrained his killing intent, but this did not mean that he relaxed his vigilance.
Seeing that Xiluo had finally restrained her killing intent, the girl let out a long breath, reached out and wiped the cold sweat on her forehead, and then asked, "May I ask if you are in any trouble?" If so, maybe I can help a little bit......"
Hearing this, Xiluo's eyes when he looked at the girl became a little weird.
As if noticing Xiluo's eyes, the girl immediately changed her words in a panic: "If not, just as if I didn't say anything!" ”
"Since you're here, it means that there is a village nearby, and if you can, I want you to take us there." Xiluo didn't care about the other party's sudden change of words, but said flatly, not like a begging person to do something at all.
For such a request, the girl did not refuse, but glanced at Lisa Rosa's mother and daughter, who were lying on the ground and already asleep, and asked, "Now?" ”
Noticing the fall of the other party's eyes, he also realized something, and after a pause, he said, "Wait a minute......
