The calendar has turned a new page.

The Year of the Red Moon, January 14.

In the misty mountains and forests, on the edge of the Nogo mountains, the entire Gray Rabbit Village was bathed in a silvery white soft morning light.

On this day, Gross and his party got up early, packed their bags, and left Gray Rabbit Village.

Gross, Ladia, Scott, Oliver, Levine and Cameron, a total of six, are already the main characters of the wolf bandits.

The horses' hooves tread on the path in the mountains and forests, and the sound of "da-da" footsteps broke the early morning silence.

Winter in Northland Nuogo has not yet passed, but spring has quietly arrived, the temperature is still cold, walking in the mountain paths, you can see birds chirping and jumping everywhere, weeds are germinating tenaciously from the soil and rock crevices, and bright green tender paper is drilling out of the withered brown surface of the trees.

This time, Gross did not choose a detour, and they passed through the fringing hilly area of the Nogo Mountains to take the shortest route to the village of White Pigeon, where the "Black Bulwark" Stewart was located.

This journey took more than half a day, and this was the result of the fast pace of their team. And along the way, several people seemed to be in a very good mood, talking and laughing, and time flew by unconsciously-

Although they had seen a vision of the sky yesterday evening, Gross and Radia didn't pay much attention to it. Everything was arranged according to the original plan.

Stewart is about to join his team.

Thinking of this, the corners of Gross's mouth curled slightly, and finally, from now on, there is a relatively reliable companion.

……

The group arrived at White Pigeon Village at two o'clock in the afternoon, and without too many twists and turns, Gross met several villagers in the village who had a close relationship, he smiled and nodded his head in greetings, and then went straight to the thatched hut where Stewart lived.

"Brother Gross, Sister Crane!"

A sweet voice sounded, and the chestnut-haired girl stood up, with a bamboo basket on her arm, just returning from the fields, her face was clean and beautiful, and at this wonderful age of twelve, she looked like a budding camellia—

The movement outside the thatched house attracted the attention of Stewart and Lacey, and Gross was chatting with the little girl Rhona enthusiastically, and Stewart's tall figure had appeared in the sight of the group—

Behind him is his wife, Lacey. Rhona saw her mother, stuck her tongue out at Gross in a very mischievous manner, and ran to Lacey's side.

"We're here as promised, Mr. Stewart."

Gross said with a smile.

"Haha, I'm waiting for you to arrive. It seems that everyone is lucky, this morning, I caught an adult deer in a nearby mountain forest. ”

"So, we're pretty blessed?"

Gross and Stewart hugged and saluted warmly, and soon parted again—the man's spirits returned to his former grandeur as his wife and daughter emerged from the plague.

This is the former mercenary warrior Stewart.

The men followed Stewart into the thatched hut. Gross walked behind the man, and seemed to have made some special discovery, he secretly opened the system, and saw a surprising fact -

Only two days later, Stewart's combat level has been impressively improved to LV33.

What's going on?

Gross knew that in the game world of his previous life, the natives were able to increase their strength through a variety of events. In fact, the growth of the strength of some characters, at certain important points in time, far exceeds that of ordinary players-

But?

In two days, Stewart changed from LV28 to LV33?

Gross couldn't believe his eyes.

Although Stewart is one of the famous growing natives in the world of Illuson, such a rate of progress is too exaggerated-

He quickly thought of the task of "shadows in the sun", and it was almost certain that these changes in Stewart were absolutely inseparable from this task.

Several people sat down separately in the room.

The air was cold after the New Year's festival, and Lacey had just recovered from her illness, when the stove was lit in the room, and the stove warmed the air, leaning near it, and couldn't help but dilate people's pores involuntarily.

Gross briefly introduced his companions to Stewart, who smiled and responded. But after some pleasantries, Gross looked at Stewart again, with a strange expression.

"What's the matter? Grose. ”

The man couldn't help but wonder a little.

"You seem to have changed something."

Gross didn't mind voicing his doubts—

Of course, this is also the curiosity of his player's psychology, he is not sure whether his current body belongs to the player or the native, but if it is the latter, being able to level up through specific events or tasks is undoubtedly a shortcut to becoming powerful in a short period of time.

In "Discord", the strength of the aborigines depends on their origin and experience, while the strength of the players comes from the accumulation of time -

One of the most obvious differences between the two is that players will level up on a daily basis, and for this purpose, most players tend to travel around the continent at different levels.

And he is now moving on the path of the latter.

If he could get the benefits of the indigenous people, Gross said he would be more than happy to accept it. His eyes blinked, and thinking of this, he looked at Miss Ladia—

The girl held her chin with one hand, as if she was thinking about something, and when she saw his gaze, she raised her head slightly and looked back.

"You found out?"

Hearing Gross say this, Stewart laughed.

Lacey walked lightly to the side of the few of them, brought some steaming baked snacks to these new guests, and after a little politeness, under Lacey's enthusiasm, Scott and the others politely picked up a few small round cakes made of wheat flour from the plate.

The taste of the round cake is very light, and it is a little coarse and unpalatable.

But this was the best thing the family could come up with to entertain the guests, and cream, sugar, honey, and other expensive ingredients were not available to the farmer at this season—

The poor economic situation doomed them to be unable to buy from the merchants, and it was extremely difficult to obtain honey from the wild during the winter season.

Gross's companions came from humble backgrounds, but they also knew a lot about these things.

"After learning from you on that day, I have some new insights in swordsmanship. How so? Well, I seem to have found my own law of power in the realm of awakening. ”

Stewart spoke.

Gross was stunned for a moment.

Is that okay too?

It has nothing to do with the mission?
