Chapter 814: Departure

"Andrei, I want to go to the Elven Forest and look for that elven girl."

In the evening, when Mordrak said this, André almost fell to the ground.

He never dreamed that Mordrak would say such crazy words, like a child saying that he wanted to swallow the moon in one gulp.

"Your Highness, should you calm down? Who, but those crazy horse thieves, would go to the Elven Forest in search of thrills? It's full of murderous motives, and it's not a place for us humans to set foot in, as it has been for thousands of years, which is never a wise thing to do. André persuaded Modrac.

"I know that the Elven Forest is a forbidden place for humans, but I really can't forget that elven girl, in the dark, she seems to be the person I am looking for." Mordrak looked at the portrait of Ji Ran hanging on the wall, and muttered involuntarily.

"Your Highness, this—" Andrei looked embarrassed, it was almost the craziest idea he had ever heard.

"You are my most reliable partner, and I need your help." Modrek said as he looked at Andre.

Andre pondered for a moment, he really felt that this idea was too crazy, at this moment, Mordrake was like a person who had lost his soul, and he was a little like the monarch of the dead country in the history books.

Those kings who have gone down in history usually have an uncontrollable obsession, some people like to fight crickets, some people like beautiful women, some people are greedy for money, and some people are greedy for power, and they are reckless, which eventually leads to the defeat of the country.

And at this moment, Mordrak seems to be an obsession with women, and is moving towards a point of no return.

"Oaths are always unreliable, like a woman's lie." Seeing that Andre had not expressed his position for a long time, Mordrak sighed helplessly.

"Your Highness, I have no intention of breaking my word, I swore to you at the beginning, and I swore allegiance to you to the death, and I will never change." André knelt on one knee, his right hand on his heart, and assured Mordrak seriously.

"I need you to prepare some horses for me, some cheese, jerky, and yogurt, and I need two retinues to go with me, so that if I am killed, at least someone can come back and tell my parents." Modrek said to Andre.

"......" André looked at Modrek's melancholy eyes and decided to go with him.

Andre prepared cheese, jerky and yogurt overnight, which are some high-calorie foods, which can quickly replenish physical strength, and yogurt can be stored for a long time, which can replenish water in the body, and can also provide certain nutrients to help digestion, which is very necessary in the wild.

After preparing the food and yogurt, André prepared several tall horses with strong physique, these horses from Gaul are far stronger than ordinary horses, not only can carry more items, but also can run at high speed for a long time, which is a very famous mount on the mainland.

Of course, the price of such a mount is not cheap, and the price of a Gallic BMW is at least around 10,000 gold.

Towards dawn, Mordrak finally set off under the cover of Andre.

In order to keep the sound as low as possible, so as not to alarm more people, André put the noose around the horse's mouth, and put a thick layer of firewood and grass under the horseshoe, so that the sound was much quieter when he walked.

Finally, the group quietly slipped out of the castle, and when they were out of the city, Mordrak lied that he had accepted the task of the city lord Pendraken to go out of the city on errands, but the guards guarding the city did not dare to suspect it, so they opened the city gate and let Mordrake leave.

After leaving the city, the group headed north towards the Elven Forest.

The Gallic BMWs were running fast, galloping across the plains on their horses, which made Demodlec feel very good.

"Roar! ~I can finally go and meet her! ~" Mordrak shouted happily to the sky, waving his whip like a shepherd boy who had just learned to ride a horse, shouting triumphantly on his horse.

In the afternoon, the Gaulic horses finally reached the Boreal Forest, and Mordrac slowed down.

Although the Gallic war horse has extremely strong endurance and can run for a day and a night, the consequence of that is that the Gallic war horse will almost lose its combat power in the next three days, so even if the Gallic war horse has extremely strong endurance, as a battle-hardened warrior, it will not let it run like this, and will cherish the horsepower even more.

The biggest role of the war horse is not to run long distances, but to provide enough mobility for the owner when fighting, even if I can't win the opponent, at least I can escape, if the war horse has no physical strength, I'm afraid I can't run away if I want to.

In the sky, the sun was like fire, even in the forest, they felt hungry and thirsty, and the condition of the horses seemed to be even worse, they had been running for half a day, and at this time they were thirsty and hungry, Modrek asked André to let go of the horses, and let them freely search for grass around to satisfy their hunger, while Modrek took out the cheese and jerky, and distributed them to Andrei and the two servants who accompanied him.

After lunch, everyone lay down on the spot and took a nap.

When the weather cooled down, Mordrac let everyone set foot on the formation again.

Since the Elven Forest was full of thorns and weeds, and the trees were so entrenched that it was impossible to gallop even on horseback, Mordrak simply dismounted and walked deeper into the forest.

The deeper you go into the forest, the dimmer the light becomes, and the leafy trees block out the sun, leaving only dappled spots of light on the ground.

"Your Highness, it's getting late, let's stay here for one night." André saw that it was getting darker, and the forest in front of him seemed to be even darker, and there happened to be a small stream here that could be easily fetched water, so it was advisable to stay here for the night.

Mordrak looked at the surrounding terrain and nodded, as a nobleman, Mordrake has also learned a lot of the art of war since he was a child, and knows that the most important thing in marching and fighting is the absorption of water, soldiers can go without food for three days, but it is impossible not to drink water for three days, once the army cuts off the water source, it is easy to lose combat effectiveness, and even cause serious mutiny.

"Let's spend the night here tonight." Modrec said, then added, "Unload the horses and put them in the tents." ”

"Yes, Your Highness." Andrei nodded, and asked the two servants to unload the supplies on horseback, set up the tent, and moved in together.

Mordrake also has his own ideas about this, the forest is full of dangers, and horses are very frightened animals, in case of emergencies, the horses are frightened and run away, and the supplies will be lost, so in order to prevent this from happening, Mordrake feels that it is more reliable to leave the materials by his side.
