"Dahl, how far is it from Bandel City, if we can't get there in three days, we may have to find a place to resupply first. The food is fine, and you can catch some small animals or eat some wild vegetables on the way, but we haven't seen a water source for a long time. Ling Tianmao looked up at the scorching sun hanging in the air and licked his chapped lips.

Ever since he came out of that wood, Ling Tianmao had been heading west under Dahl's command. According to Dahl, the place where they were before was supposed to be the western part of Ionia, and the Freljord and Ionia they were going to were not on a continent, but northwest of Ionia. As for the entrances to Bandel City, one of them is just off the west coast of Ionia.

"Three days...... I don't think I can get there...... But how did you drink water so quickly, I checked before leaving, and the food and water we brought should be enough to support Bandel City. ”

"I'm angry when I talk about this, how the hell do you calculate? You said it would be a day or two, but now the water and food are so bad. Ling Tianmao said angrily.

"How do I know that...... Maybe you're walking too slowly......"

"Am I still walking slowly? I spend the rest of my day, except for a few hours of sleeping, to travel...... Wait, what are you trying to estimate by that kid. ”

"What else can I use for this, based on the amount of food and water I used to walk from Shangzan, Shangzan's position should be further east than our previous starting point, and my speed is not particularly fast, it should be a little slower than you."

"I see," Ling Tianmao patted his head angrily, "You're counting the yodelers' food and water consumption!" ”

"This ...... Belch...... This, by the way, I remember, there should be a small town a little further on, we can go there and check it out, replenish some food and water! I know one of the bar owners there and he would definitely have entertained us well! Dahl hurriedly changed the subject.

"Is it safe there?" Ling Tianmao asked seriously.

"I can't guarantee that you must remember to be careful when the time comes, and try not to attract the attention of others."

This was the main reason why the two men did not dare to go to small towns or cities along the way, according to Dahl, many towns to the west of Ionia had already been occupied by Noxian troops. In wartime, the control of personnel will be stricter, and young men like him will easily be forcibly conscripted if they are found by the other party, so they basically walk along the mountain trails to prevent encountering the Noxus army.

The two of them were discussing when they suddenly heard what seemed to be a faint conversation in front of them, Ling Tianmao quickly hid behind a stone and quietly poked his head out.

Sure enough, the bushes more than ten meters ahead shook a few times, and more than a dozen heavily armed Noxus soldiers emerged from them.

"Sure enough, this area is still occupied by Noxus, and I was lucky before, in case the war is over." Dahl sighed.

"Don't be so sad, the war of aggression is not right in the first place, and I believe that as time goes by, more and more people will be on the side of Ionia." Ling Tianmao didn't simply comfort Dahl, if he remembered correctly, it was indeed Demacia who intervened in the war between the two countries at that time, preventing the continued invasion of the Noxian army.

However, for the time being, the two of them didn't bother to continue discussing this issue, because the Noxian soldiers over there also spoke.

"Captain, you said that these are all trees, trees, what can there be, I don't think we should waste time here." A diminutive soldier walking in the middle of the line said.

"Don't complain, since it's an order from above, then we should investigate thoroughly, besides, two big living people are missing like this, even if we fall and die, we have to find the body back. Deka, you are the oldest of our people and have more combat experience, what do you think? The burly soldier at the front of the line asked.

"I've rarely encountered this situation, but I feel that the probability of two people stumbling at the same time is too small, and the people of their team have already searched this place once before, and they have not found any clues. I think it's possible that the two of them didn't want to continue to participate in the war, so they became deserters. ”

"Hmph, then we have to arrest them back and send them to court, the brothers are desperate on the front line, why should they run home to enjoy, the prestige of our Noxus is not based on those guys' mouths, but everyone bought it with blood." As soon as the captain heard the word "deserter", his emotions were obviously a lot more excited.

"In that case, there's no point in us continuing to search here, Captain, you might as well ......," the slightly skinny soldier continued to suggest.

"No, since the above has arranged for us to come, we must complete the task, even if we want to go back, we must at least search this side again, maybe we can really find any clues."

Although the thin soldier didn't dare to say anything more after hearing this, he kept muttering in his mouth, obviously a little dissatisfied with the captain's decision.

Ling Tianmao was struggling with whether he wanted to run away or not, he didn't want to come into contact with the army of Noxus, but if he escaped now, he would obviously be discovered by the other party, and if he continued to stay here, the other party said that he would search this area, who knew that the scope of their search would include those places.

Fortunately, this group of soldiers stopped about ten meters away from Ling Tianmao.

"According to the report, the farthest search range should be this one, from here back, everyone search carefully, and go back after the search."

"Captain...... Behind you! As soon as the captain finished speaking, one of the soldiers pointed behind him and shouted with a frightened expression.

After hearing this, the captain hurriedly turned to look, and at the same time took out the long knife on his waist and slashed it behind him, although he didn't know what was behind him, but looking at the expression of the soldier just now, it was obviously something to his disadvantage, and the combat quality honed on the battlefield for a long time made him react quickly.

However, this time his attack failed, and he was shocked to find that behind him was a shadow, and this shadow appeared to be in the shape of a person.

However, before he could think about what it was, the dark shadow in front of him suddenly turned around, and then his throat was cut by something he didn't know, and he couldn't make any sound.

He fell along with the six soldiers around him, seven of whose bodies twitched occasionally on the ground, and the blood pooled into a small puddle under them.

The first instinct of the remaining few people was to scatter in all directions, but from somewhere in the woods flew out several huge shurikens, and the shuriken stabbed deep into the ground after cutting off three or four trees. The soldiers who had fled had all fallen to the ground.
