Chapter 14 The trust of a partner can sometimes be inexplicable

The atmosphere in the dense forest was tense, and Ivan's muscles tensed.

Although he was facing forward with his sword, he was actually always looking for an opportunity to escape from the rear and quickly escape from the other party.

This was based on the performance of the other party who easily slaughtered a mercenary team just now, and Ivan felt that he would only be killed in seconds when he fought.

Originally, the plan was just to try to interfere with the other party's slaughter, but who knew that he would expose himself to the other party's sword.

When Feron Wood saw Ivan's appearance as if he were facing a great enemy, he couldn't help but feel amused, so he had to raise his hands in the hostile and surprised eyes of the other party to show that he had no ill will.

"Hey, the imp over there!"

Ivan didn't relax his vigilance even when he saw the other party raise his hands, and the huge ravine brought by his strength made it difficult for him to relax at this time.

"What, uncle?"

Okay, even though going north and south and weathered makes Wood look a little older than he really is, it's not yet time for a greasy uncle with a scruffy beard.

Wood resisted the urge to draw his sword and hack the other party to death, and said to Ivan: "The atmosphere doesn't need to be so tense, it makes me nervous, I don't have any malicious intent. ”

Ivan hesitated when he heard this, but he still selectively put away his weapon temporarily.

He felt that the other party should be as he said and not hostile for the time being, judging from the strength that the other party showed just now, this person really didn't need to deceive himself in this kind of thing.

Wood smiled, put down his hands, and was about to walk over, just took two steps, only to find Ivan two steps back, and couldn't help but be a little stunned and depressed.

"What are you doing?"

"If you have anything to say, just say it, two big men, let's keep a little distance."

For Ivan, even if the other party has no malicious intent, but such a murderous maniac, Ivan still has a strong rejection mentality, and the potential danger of the other party makes Ivan feel that it is better to hide away.

In this forest, the only person who can truly believe is himself.

Wood felt the green tendons on his head come out of his breath, but then he sighed again, and smiled a little helplessly and a little lonely.

"So...... Are you going to team up with me? ”

“...... Ha? Ivan couldn't believe his ears, the other party actually wanted to team up with him?

"Why? For what? ”

"Intuition! I guess you have a reason why you can't tell it! ”

Actually, Wood has two reasons.

First, it's best to have a foil to go deep into the forest, especially for adventurers like yourself who are visiting the Dark Forest for the first time, sometimes relying on maps and information gathered from the outside world is not enough to solve the problem.

And Ivan gave him a good sense, and when he saw that the other party was not a person who would betray his teammates for a little profit, it could be seen from the fact that the other party did not choose to kill and seize the treasure at the first time he fainted.

This teenager is a young adventurer who has not yet fully accepted the sinister nature of humanity.

Second, it is probably to repay the favor, and the other party liberates him from the killing state.

Despite the mistake, Wood's rule is that a drop of water should be reciprocated.

Such a young adventurer went so deep into the forest, and in Wood's opinion, the mortality rate was as high as ninety-nine, and he did his best to protect him.

And Ivan is still hesitating, teaming up with the other party is undoubtedly a big boost, such a strong companion will greatly improve his survival rate and harvest.

Is it really good to team up with this unknown person? He still vividly remembers the cruelty of the other party.

But this may be the only way to increase your chances of winning, as there are still countless dangers before you land on the island.

"I need your help to get me to the island in the middle of the lake on the east side of the forest."

Wood was stunned for a moment and smiled, "Alright then, I'm going to go to the location of the Demon Tree and get one of the relics of Tanan." ”

The other party should not have deceived himself, Ivan silently calculated in his heart.

Because in this proposal you belong to the weaker side.

Not only is there nothing to covet on him, but he is at best a low-level free adventurer, and even in some aspects, he can't reach it.

Although he didn't understand the other party's motives, this would undoubtedly increase his chances of capturing the dragon's heart.

If it were only on his own, Ivan really couldn't think of any way to break through the layers of hungry wolves and take away the dragon's heart grass, for the dream he insisted on, even if he only had the slightest chance, he had to give it a try.

"Well, well, since our purposes are not conflicting, then..."

"Let's help each other for the time being......"

Some people, just by looking at each other, know that it is someone who can be trusted, regardless of age, gender or strength.

Luckily, Ivan and Wood are those kinds of people.

Two days later....

Ivan's blade slashed through the body of the demonic beast fiercely, without the slightest feeling of hindrance, a blood flower bloomed, and then quickly retreated, avoiding the reacting demonic beast from counterattacking.

In battle, you must not be greedy.

The wounded beast roared.

If it was one-on-one, it could easily tear the little man in front of it apart, but there was a tall man standing next to it, and it really couldn't ignore this guy who exuded an aura of terror.

Wood set up his greatsword and blocked the beast's escape route. In his hand was just an ordinary broadsword, and the bloody Moslage was rewrapped in cloth by Wood and carried behind his back.

The trapped beast still fights, and the injured beast is even more ferocious.

Ivan looked at it cautiously, and had a vague assessment of the fourth-level demonic beast in his heart, and his swordsmanship level was probably the level of a low-level swordsman, that is to say, it was the appearance of a level 1-3 warrior.

As for the guy standing on the side and in charge of the front, it should be at least level five.

It's still too weak.

If Wood hadn't been in charge of containing it head-on, his battle with this fourth-level demonic beast wouldn't have lasted five rounds.

Ambition and enthusiasm can't change anything, only strength is everything!

While thinking so, he took advantage of the gap between Wood and the demonic beast, and fiercely pierced the opponent's body with the blade, and the white light on the sword body flashed away, taking away the last trace of vitality of the demonic beast.

Wood touched the magic crystal left behind after the death of the demonic beast in his hand, and sighed secretly that luck is not bad, most of the demonic beasts will only be broken magic crystal fragments after death, and the one in front of him is still intact.

Immediately, a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes, this kid's sword actually emitted a trace of divine aura just now, is that the holy blessing of the church?

It's getting more and more interesting, the kid who doesn't believe in the goddess of radiance actually has a sword that has been blessed by the divine, although this power is very weak, but the church will not bless a person with no background.

But it is also possible that the sword originally belonged to someone else, and after decades of time testing, the blessing was slowly worn out......

But he wasn't going to explore, after all, everyone has their own secrets, Wood thought to himself.

"Hey, pick it up, kid."

Ivan catches the crystal thrown by the other party.

"Take it, I don't lack this thing."

Although the other party's tone was very bad, Ivan really needed it, so he didn't say anything polite to him, and accepted it silently.

Immediately, Ivan looked at the sword in his hand and frowned.

This sword, which has been carefully maintained for many years, is getting less and less radiant......

As that person said, the demon aura in his body will wipe out the divine blessing on this sword little by little, and probably after this adventure, this sword will return to the ordinary.

A faint sadness could not help but permeate Ivan's heart, he was not only saddened by the imminent retirement of the "combat partner" he had carried with him for many years, but also by the power of the bloodline in his own body.

But what can be done?

His gaze looked ahead.

The jungle ahead is probably the final level......
