"This is the entrance, we'll walk along this road for a while, then turn right at the second intersection and take this path......"

After a period of regrouping, a team of five newcomers gathered at the side of the path in front of the jungle in Gemenan, and the crystal bun that was responsible for stabilizing the two ends also took out his adventurer's manual at this time, and temporarily acted as a guide and conductor: "Pay attention to this intersection...... This intersection is very inconspicuous, and the teams passing by here should not have noticed this path, they are all walking straight ahead. ”

"The last time we ventured, we found out that this trail was a shortcut." Looking at the confused expression of one of the two people who was forcibly brought back, the lazy cat on the side immediately added emphasis: "As long as we cross this path, we can save at least two groups of enemies, and if we are lucky, we may be able to skip a group of patrols......

"So what exactly are we going to fight?" The magician named Linyuan Broken Water raised his hand and asked, "It's the enemy and the patrol again...... Isn't this a primeval jungle? ”

"It's true that this was originally a primeval jungle, but now it's a primeval jungle after it was occupied."

The voice was slowly suppressed, and the eyes of the crystal bun became a little more serious: "The leveling places next to the novice village are all leveling places that meet the novice level and strength, and the free world has not jumped out of this rule when randomly selecting the location of the novice village, but because of the influence of some external factors, this Gemenan jungle is no longer a place that people of this level of the novice village can deal with......"

"You don't have to explain it in such detail, just tell them the result and it's over." The lazy cat on the other side waved his hand and interrupted his teammates: "What's more, this jungle is not impossible to enter everywhere, but this route cannot be continued." ”

"Because...... Relationship with high-level monster invasion? ”

"Not a high-level monster, but a high-level person."

Waving his hand lightly, the lazy cat set his eyes on Lin Yuan's broken water who asked loudly: "There is an advance team suspected of the Magic Empire sneaking into this wood, and it has been hidden here for a long time, and the passers-by and merchants have been attacked by them many times, and in addition to throwing away their lives, they will also discard most of the supplies and food......"

"A warrant has been issued for the Citadel of Thebilisi, and it is hoped that someone will be able to provide better clues." The crystal bun in charge of the narration took over the topic at the right time: "If it can be confirmed that the Magic Empire has infiltrated the remnants of the province of Thebilisi, it will not be a problem to kill them on the spot." ”

"If only we can bring back the emblem or other emblem that represents them, five hundred gold coins per head." The lazy cat said the final price: "As adventurers, we also have the privilege of taking the equipment dropped from those enemies for ourselves...... Doesn't that sound very generous? ”

"A bounty." Lin Yuan's eyes lit up slightly: "It does sound very good, but this last bounty ...... I'm afraid it's not that easy to take. ”

"That's right."

Pouting his mouth, Crystal Bun replied helplessly: "So far, only five of the people who have broken into this place because of this incident have successfully obtained the head, and two teams have finally received the bounty, and the other team has fought over the issue of bounty distribution, and finally broke up unhappily......

"Five hundred gold coins per head, that's a lot of money for us people." Lin Yuan rubbed his chin when he broke the water: "What about the other two teams?" ”

"Those two are high-ranking guilds from the Empire." Crystal Bun shook his head and replied, "They left after the fight, neither saying what they had gained, nor explaining where their progress had been......"

"Don't look at it, we think it's suspicious too." The lazy cat, looking back at the magician, then explained in a low voice, "But we can't do anything about what happened to them. ”

"At least they did get the bounty." Crystal Bun smiled and continued: "I don't know what exactly they encountered, but at least they can give us a reference......"

"This copy can still be passed by manpower."

He looked into the depths of the jungle in front of him, and his voice gradually became slow and heavy: "If they can pass, of course we can pass it...... Right? ”

"People can, but they are all full-level players, and we haven't even gone out of the novice village." Alast, who was sitting at the back, asked worriedly, "This, how can this be compared?" ”

"We Flame Dragons don't want any incompetent, if we are not satisfied with the content of such a trial...... You can turn around and walk away now. The lazy cat who was looking at him with slanted eyes slowly curled the corners of his mouth: "Do you have any opinions?" No more comments? Very well, then sit down and listen. ”

"Our initial plan was to get around the first few enemies in front of us and hide next to the old trees that were about to reach the first boss." Looking at the two guys who were even more novices than novices who quieted down, Crystal Bun once again started his pre-battle arrangement: "The first boss is located in a tidal flat next to the Gemenan River, although the whereabouts are uncertain, but the battle will not be triggered until it is close to a certain line. ”

"We're in front of that line ambushing those two patrolmen going back, if we work together...... It shouldn't be a problem to take them out. The lazy cat's big hand slapped the adventurer's map in front of him: "There is only one chance, and the time must be fast, as long as we solve it quickly before other people find out about us, our strategy this time will be considered successful." ”

"After the looting is completed, let's return from the original route according to the situation, and then hide in this ruin in the southeast of the map, waiting for the limelight to pass." The crystal bun, who was not disturbed by the player next to him, continued in a calm voice: "Although the rest of the enemies will be searched for a long time, they will eventually return to their original scheduled posts, and then we can follow the previous route to touch back and solve the first boss unharmed......"

"I've been talking about it for a long time...... Who is the first boss? Lin Yuan raised his hand again: "Do we have to put so much effort into preparing?" ”

"It's a mutated demonic beast, the kind that is still in a demonic state during the day." The crystal bun that paused blinked his eyes: "Strength...... Even if we get rid of all the monsters around us, we may not have a chance to defeat it. ”

"Kill the two patrols at the gate in advance, just to protect this operation." Then the lazy cat turned around and looked around at everyone present: "At least after we are all gone...... You didn't make this trip in vain. ”

"According to your level of clearance this time, we will give you a proportional part of the final bonus." Speaking of this, he grinned and showed a reminder smile: "But can you pass the final trial......

"It's up to you to perform in the end."

The action of feeling the road and quietly moving forward appeared at the entrance of the edge of the jungle of Gemenan with the last simple words of several people, and was soon slowly submerged by the green near the jungle, and the five-person team that tried not to make any movement soon slowly broke into the depths of this jungle under the leadership of the two veterans in front. The faint figure of the shadow passed in front of them again and again accompanied by the herd of beasts that appeared back and forth, bringing many feelings of danger to this originally peaceful and silent jungle that were difficult to ignore, and the team that had been hiding from these enemy shadows then followed their own plan and touched the river side of the small river mentioned before: "...... This is it, undiscovered, right? ”

"No, the second team of the men in black is heading south now, and the time is just right."

"Those two should be in this position in a moment, and then turn around and walk back after a while...... This is where we attacked, and this is already the farthest away from the other black-clad guards. ”

"Do you see the mudflats over there? That's the first boss's activity area.,The range is near the junction of the beach and the dirt road.,Don't cross that line...... Do you understand? ”

“…… Very well, prepare for an ambush. ”

With his head lowered and looking around for a while, the lazy cat in charge of the command then took out an iron long sword pinned to his waist: "The time is probably less than a minute, and the trap can't be done, but thanks to me thinking about this, I bought a few pieces of roast wild boar in advance......"

"When did you buy it? Aren't you afraid that the smell will attract other monsters? ”

"The monsters around here have long been driven away by those people of the Magic Empire, and their own noses are not so smart, now they just need to put these flesh on the road, and it is better to be more conspicuous......"

"And then attack while they're being drawn to attention? Come on, do you think we're catching wolves or foxes? ”

As if there was a slight dispute over the stupidity of the alternative, there was a slight commotion in the jungle near the riverside tidal flats, and a few pieces of grilled pork chops were still discarded in the middle of the forest path, smelling delicious. The figures who quickly withdrew then crept behind a few old trees by the river, and pointed their daggers and swords at the movement of the road they had just come, and their expressions of holding their breath and concentrating slowly appeared on everyone's faces with the appearance of two black shadows that gradually appeared at the end of the road: "Here they come, here they come." ”

"Get ready to bang the stuffy stick! Don't leave it unturned! ”

"In a while, the two of us will go first, if we can't do it, you two will go up again, the magician is in charge of covering, don't let them escape, do you hear it...... Hey? ”

"Why is there one person missing? What about the woman? ”

The extremely tense air appeared in the dark depths of the jungle with this doubtful sound, accompanied by the movement of the lazy cat who suddenly looked back behind him when he sensed that something was wrong, and the faces of the other three people who were close at hand also appeared in his field of vision, and in contrast to the innocent eyes of each of them looking back at him. A shrill hiss then appeared in the distance of the ambush of several people, accompanied by the sight of a black reptile chasing another small figure that suddenly jumped up, and the panicked petite figure then ran in front of the lazy cat at a speed that was enough to outpace everyone in the novice village, and at the same time brought her shouting: "Wow, ahh What a big crocodile! ”

"Crocodile, you're big! Is that the boss knowing? Do you know that the whole XX is over! ”

"Intruder! There are intruders appearing! Warning! ”

"Fight with them!"

The action of running and the desperate action of moving forward were played out in the middle of this chaotic scene at the same time, but it only took a few seconds before the tragic end of each came to an abrupt end, and several rising white lights then flew into their respective skies along with the scene of the surrounding black shadows quickly gathering, and then gathered together again in the inn hall of Carlo Village. Hatefully chopped off his own feet, the player named Lazy Cat then opened his eyes wide and pointed to the top of the head of the female player who was still wiping her tears and crying, and only after a while did she put down her angry arm in a speechless atmosphere, and let out a desolate sigh with a desolate face: "Why didn't I think of it, why didn't I think of it...... No, I would never have imagined that I would still get lost at such a critical moment. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, isn't it just extinguished once?" The crystal bun on the side hurriedly persuaded: "We still have some remaining funds, and we will buy a tent and set it up at the door later......"

"Still trying? And to be resurrected at the door? The lazy cat, whose eyes were wide open again, jumped to his feet and shouted, "No, no, no!" Just these few best teammates who can attract the BOSS, who of you likes to bring it! ”

"Hey, don't run...... Alas. ”

Looking helplessly at the back of the striding meteor leaving in the direction of the inn door, the crystal bun, who also smiled and sighed bitterly, then turned his gaze to the others present: "That...... I'm sorry, the trial failed, if you still have any questions, go to the entrance of the village to find that drunk and sober and ask, I'm ...... Well, I'm going to persuade my friend now. ”

"Alast, this Miss Murong will be handed over to you first." He opened his mouth again and again, and finally took his eyes off the little girl who was still crying: "And this Mr. Magician...... I'm sorry. ”

"It's okay, I'm just a passerby anyway."

His hands were still casually patting his gray robe, as if he had been ignored, Lin Yuan replied with a smile: "Since this matter is over, then I will also go back." ”

“…… If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just come to me. Looking at the other party's crystal bun, he hesitated for a moment, and finally let go of the idea of continuing to ask: "Me and the flame...... Although I don't have much ability with lazy cats, I can still talk about friendships. ”

“…… Understood, thanks. ”

Showing a faint smile slightly, Lin Yuan nodded his head politely, but the pace of departure was as he turned around without hesitation, slowly disappearing into the gaze of the crystal bun that had been looking at his back.
