Then, as Irina had told everyone in the halls of the Adventurers' Guild in Twilight, the old chief of the logging village named Gezi then further informed the adventurers present of the details of this urgent mission.

Through the information given by the old village chief, Urs and his companions stood close to the ranks of adventurers, and soon learned that the demonic beasts in the Spotted Axe Forest did suddenly appear last night and launched a siege on the logging village, but the strange thing is that those demonic beasts only suffered some casualties and losses that were not too heavy, and then put away their first wave of attack and quickly withdrew to the Spotted Axe Forest, as if deliberately leaving opportunities and time for the people in the village, As a result, the attacked village sent a messenger to the headquarters of the Adventurers' Guild in Twilight to inform the Adventurers Guild headquarters of this urgent and strange incident overnight.

In addition, a small number of witnesses in the village mentioned that when they used the bows and arrows they usually hunted in the forest to assist the village guards to defend against the attack of the monsters, they also seemed to see the shadows of human figures shaking in the depths of the night and walking safely with the team of monsters.

This crucial information causes Urs to recall memories of his previous life as a player, and soon rethink the Shadow Druid Order hidden in the depths of the Spotted Axe Forest during the Year of the Candlelight.

The Druids' faction must maintain the neutrality of at least one of them in one of the twin axes of chaos and order, or good and evil, so their personalities can sometimes be as cold and indifferent as nature's, and as nature contains both life and death, beauty and terror, peace and violence, and other polar truths, they can be divided into different or even opposing factions.

The druids known to humans along the Emerald Coast are usually elven druids of the Ranger Alliance, and their factions tend to be neutral, good, or absolutely neutral, but many humans don't know that there is such a neutral evil camp of druids somewhere in the Okazawa region until the game's players first discover the Shadow Druid Order in the depths of the Spotted Axe Forest.

Regardless of the faction, the druids have the ability to communicate with animals, and even control and domesticate them.

In this way, Urs felt that the attack on the village by the monster might really have something to do with the Shadow Druid Order deep in the forest.

It's just that now although he knows this clue, he doesn't know how to remind the other adventurers who are traveling with him this time, and he is also worried about whether he has triggered some hidden game plot that he didn't know in his previous life in the last half a month since he came to Twilight City.

Come to think of it, if he were to tell everyone like a god now, that there was a group of druid bastards from the evil camp in the forest, and the truth would be different from his words......

In that case, the ......

After thinking about it for a while, he thought that his current identity seemed to be enough to be guarded against in the adventurer circle of Twilight City, so after thinking about it for a while, he gave up this impulsive plan to play the role of a god stick to "benefit" the public.

At the same time, the old village chief Ghezi's speech had ended after a few minutes, and the adventurers gathered in the clearing of the logging village began to discuss with each other the possibilities of this incident, and the black-haired young man suddenly felt someone stretching out his finger and gently tugging at the corner of his clothes exposed outside the chain mail.

"What's wrong, Thea?" Suddenly, he put aside all the thoughts in his mind for the time being, and looked sideways at the wolf-eared girl beside him.

"I have a gut feeling in my mind that I can't articulate, Urs." Thea hesitated for two seconds, holding a medium-sized steel shield called the Demon Drinker in her right hand, and looked at the young man's eyes with the words in her heart, "Ever since I entered this village, I have always felt as if everyone was being targeted by a malicious gaze. ”

"Ill-intentioned sight?"

"Well, that strange gaze is like looking at all of us with some kind of malice...... But I don't understand why I suddenly thought that. ”

"So maybe it's just your overly nervous state of mind that caused those two amber beads in your eye sockets to hallucinate somewhere along the way, our simple and lovely pastor's lady." Raven's hoarse voice suddenly came from under her hood, "It's like an illusionist's terror can make some hapless fool haunted by nightmares agony. ”

"But I do have that bad feeling...... "that bad feeling" Thea turned to look at her, "that bad feeling...... Well, it seems to be quietly around us, Miss Raven. ”

"Therefore, I suggest that you take some time off to clear your mind of those inexplicable warinesss." The black-robed Miss Drow Poet smiled coldly, "Otherwise, when you're so nervous that you can't even use the healing magic technique...... Look, we have an old man and a green-skinned companion in our team who doesn't even wear armor. ”

As she spoke, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes, she glanced at the old thief next to her and then the orc monk who had only recently joined the team.

Noticing the disdainful glare that the crow flicked at him, Glorydon rolled his eyes at her, then didn't bother to pay attention to her senseless provocation.

Stone Fist, who adhered to the precepts of the warrior monk, did not get angry, but calmly defended himself: "My martial arts can ensure my own safety, and at the same time, I will provide you and Xia with effective spell casting protection when necessary." ”

"Then I look forward to your performance in this adventure, Mr. Orc on the surface."

"Alright, Raven, don't say a word."

Urs frowned slightly, stopping the crow from further sneering at Stonefist. He still knows a little bit about the innate haughty nature of the Dark Elves, but that doesn't mean that as a party leader, he will let the members of his team taunt each other at will, although he himself doesn't like too rigid dogmatism.

But the most basic atmosphere of unity should be there for a long time in his own adventure team, he thinks.

Raven pursed the corners of her lips indifferently, turned her head to the side and stopped talking.

And at this moment-

"Ahhh

A scream of pain was suddenly tore out of the throat of one of the guards beside the old village chief, and some people on the other side followed closely, and when they noticed that the guard's unhelmeted half of his face was suddenly inserted into an arrow about twenty inches in length without warning.

The appearance of that arrow instantly snapped into everyone's minds like thunder.

Warnes is on top, and low-intelligence monsters can't use ranged weapons to shoot arrows!

"Enemy attack! Someone is attacking here! ”

"Watch your surroundings!"

"Take care to protect the village chief!"

Suddenly, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became chaotic and tense.

Although the evening sky was not always dark, some of the houses in the logging village and the surrounding trees swaying in the wind seemed to be all hidden murderous motives, and panicked cries were shouted from the nearby guards and some panicked scattered adventurers.

Fortunately, the veteran adventurers of the three regiments of Mt. Copper, Shaving Blade and Hummingbird were able to maintain the discipline of the team under such an unexpected situation.

"What's the noise? What are you panicking about? Calm me down! The shaved head named Sawyer Boots then roared and directed the dozen or so team members he had brought with him to prepare for battle. The halfling thief, who had been caricatured like a child by Dambert in Twilight City, was not very small, but he had no small voice, and he did not know how he resisted the urge to yell and keep quiet when he sneaked up on his enemies.

The adventurers of the Shaving Blade Regiment quickly stabilized their positions and focused their attention on the battle that was most likely to break out. Carlos Loew, the mage leader of the Orichal, and Ekarila Linying, the half-elf female ranger leader of the Hummingbird Adventures, gave similar orders to their respective teams at the same time, but the volume was not as high as that of the halfling thief Mr. Sawyer.
