A meandering stream flows down the mountain range, eventually converging into small rivers that merge into the Tara River and eventually flow to the sea.

A group of rabbits grow mushrooms by a small river in the Annarinal Crater.

This is a mushroom called "room mushroom", so named because halflings and some goblins like to make houses out of it. The mushroom can only grow in an environment with plenty of mana, but with enough light and moisture, it can grow thick and tall!

Mushrooms are soft and easy to process when they are young, but when they grow to a certain extent, they are as hard as wood, and if they are dug in the heart of the mushroom while they are still seedlings, they will become a hollow mushroom house when they grow. After that, as long as the water is cut off and the mushrooms die due to lack of water, you can directly get a strong, dry mushroom house - just a little smaller for humans, but for Mona, the size of the mushrooms is just right.

At this time, this mushroom has just been planted and is not yet mature. A group of Mona who stayed behind were watering them and hollowing out the mushroom hearts that had grown to half a human height with props.

In the forest a few kilometers away from the camp, a half-elf shrouded in gray robes hid behind the bushes and silently threw a marching pill into its mouth. Cautiously glanced up at the Wyvern Patrol flying through the sky.

Gilat is a bounty hunter. Unlike adventurers who are good at squad combat and mercenaries who are good at legion combat, bounty hunters are more adept at acting alone, and their professions are mostly rangers, thieves, assassins, and other professions that are good at reconnaissance and stealth. Every bounty hunter is the best Scout!

This time, Gilat receives a commission to kidnap "Mona" through an underground guild. It took almost a week of sneaking through the Annarinar Crater before Gilat found the Mona's civilian colony. After two days of ambush and reconnaissance, Gilat has basically determined the flight rules of the Wyvern Patrol and the routine of those rabbits, and it is almost time to complete the commission.

After the patrolling dragoons left, Gilat finally decided to make a move!

Gilat walked silently, weaving through the shadows of the forest, slowly approaching the Mona's village.

It's daytime, and the sun is a little harsh, which is not suitable for this kind of stealing and dog-stealing. If the target was a human, Girart would never have chosen this time to strike, but Girart's target was a group of magical creatures that could see in the dark, so the time of action was adjusted.

Gilat hides behind a large rock by the river, squinting his eyes and waiting for his target to appear.

According to Gillart's investigation, these rabbits have to go to the river every day to fetch water, and at this time, their team is relatively scattered, many rabbits will be left alone, and the sound of the water can also interfere with the auditory perception of these rabbits and hide their movements. This place is the best place for a sneak attack!

Girat's long scouting was not wasted. A Mona with a small wooden basin on her head bounced up to the river and began to fetch water.

Gilat slowly sneaked over and quietly stretched out his evil hand.

As a group of creatures with long ears, Mona not only has the magical vision of seeing in the dark, but also has the ear to the wind that can be heard no matter how small the movement. But because of the sound of the river, Mona didn't notice the hand of sin coming from behind her.

"Silent Enchantment!" In an instant, Girat activated his ability, and the sound of the surrounding circle disappeared in an instant, and even the sound of the river disappeared.

The sudden silence made Mona feel a little confused. opened her mouth, but Mona found that she couldn't make any sound from her mouth, and then in the next second, Mona felt a strong force coming from behind her!

Before Mona could react, a piece of tape sealed Mona's mouth, and then a long strip of cloth tied Mona tightly like a mummy, leaving only two long rabbit ears to wade in the wind outside.

Gilat began to quickly leave the scene.

Although the combat power of these creatures is negligible, the monsters under their control are not easy to mess with. Goblins and kobolds are fine, but dragons and ogres are nothing to mess with. Although Gilat is confident in his own strength, if he is surrounded by a large group of monsters, he will shed his skin if he does not die!

Girat followed the river and headed downstream. The sound of the river drowned out the movement of Girart, and the bounty hunter quickly left the village along the river. Gilat then dived into the forest again, to a hollow in a tree where he had stored his supplies.

Girart took out a cage from the tree hole, threw the caught Mona into the cage, and then set a small magic core into a groove in the cage to activate the cage.

This cage is called "Fairy Cage" and is a cage designed to imprison goblins. The cage is full of magic, and there is a trapping spell on the cage, which can imprison the goblin and magic in the cage to prevent the magic from leaking out, ensuring the concentration of magic in the cage, so as to build a high magic environment suitable for the life of goblin creatures.

After putting Mona in a cage, Gilat finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"The next thing is to rush back before this rabbit dies." Girat looked up at the sky, picked up the cage, cleaned up the contents of the hollow, and began to travel south.

Gilat didn't know about the covenant between Mona and the human nobles, but even if he did, as a free bounty hunter, Gilat wouldn't take it to heart. Gilat just wants to bring this rabbit back and complete the mission!

After three days of travel, Gilat arrived at Izeta.

……

In Izeta, Green, who had just come out of Merily's alchemy workshop, looked at the system map and blinked.

"Why are there red dots in the city? Got Mona in town? ”

Green's virtual godhead system can assist Grimm in the management of his body and the analysis of intelligence. Grimm has a very special connection to his own mods, so Grimm is able to perceive their direction to a certain extent. With the help of the system, Green was able to understand the position of his subordinates at a glance - although he could sense the position of his subordinates even without the help of the system, it would undoubtedly take more time and effort, and it would not be possible to see them at a glance.

Looking at the information on the map, Green frowned.

"Do you mean...... Has Mona been captured by humans? ”

Green decisively took Chikage and went straight to where the red dot was.
