Early morning.
The group set off.
Their target is the territory of the rebels in the northwest, ostensibly to collect materials, but the real purpose is to investigate the cause of the appearance of the monster.
Xia Di didn't tell Kayilu about his night talk with his mentor last night, because he learned some additional information through the night conversation, in fact, the reason why the mentor would help the king's army was for two reasons, one was that the head of the lower knights took the initiative to ask her for help. The other was that she saw that the city of Yeovil was about to fall. She is also a resident of the city, so she has to contribute.
The situation of the king's army is actually far worse than what the deputy commander of the tavern said, they issued two commissions to transport food and investigate the monsters, not to continue to defend the city, but to fight to the death, because the city's granaries are empty, every war will only be accompanied by hunger and death, even if the food transportation plan is successful, it must not last a few more days, these grains are not actually for soldiers, but for the people fleeing the city. The purpose of investigating the Warcraft is to know if it is possible for the Warcraft to come out of the nest when they attack, so as to avoid encountering the danger of being caught between the Warcraft and the barbarians.
"Hmph, those bastards of the rebels, I'm not afraid." Kairu said hatefully.
"Don't forget our purpose." Xia Di reminded.
Xia Di thought of the girl's performance in the tavern, her righteous indignant attitude felt a headache, although he could understand the girl's desire to fight for justice, but in this dangerous period, the girl's actions were still a little reckless, but fortunately, she would reflect on herself afterwards, and she could still communicate. However, for the sake of insurance, Xia Di chose to hide the truth.
"Speaking of which, why did you come out of the tutor's room this morning?" Kairu suddenly asked, "Could it be that you sneaked away...... No, you made a move? ”
“…… I'm blown away by your whimsy, but I make it clear that I like young people. Xia Di said with some shame.
Did this woman actually see herself coming out of the study?
What a stroke of luck.
Xia Di thought to himself.
"Then why did you go in?" Kayilu looked disbelieving.
"Read a book." Xia Di said, "I used to have the habit of morning exercises, and I would get up early, I was afraid of making a noise to you, so I went to the tutor to borrow some books to read, you know, the old man has always gotten up early." ”
Xia Di said that the head is the Tao.
In fact, he does have a habit of morning exercises, and in the past, every new morning in the game, he would be called out by his own attendants to simulate battles or practice skill proficiency. In this world, although no one will wake him up, he will still wake up automatically when he reaches a fixed time period.
However, it was not entirely a lie for him to say that he was borrowing books, because one of the rewards he offered to his tutor yesterday was to let him browse the books in the study.
Since coming to this world, he found that part of his knowledge of this world is different, he originally thought that it was only historical knowledge, but he did not expect that in terms of magic and alchemy, the system of this world is also a little different from the original world.
Most of the magic in the original world was for fighting, but this world has a lot of magic to support life.
Therefore he felt that he had to make up for it.
"It's almost time for the rebels to become territory." Kayilu seemed to believe Xia Di's words, and didn't bother much: "Finish it early and go back early." It's a total of seven magic plants and three magic stone materials, right? ”
"Yes, there are ten of them, one of each, and the time is between today and tomorrow morning, so let's try to come back before night." Xia Di suggested, "It's not good to let Erin wait for us all the time. ”
Due to the danger of running to the enemy's camp on this mission, the two decided to entrust Erin to the mentor and come back to pick her up when the mission was completed.
"Yes, it's really dangerous to leave a young girl alone in a stranger's house." Kayiru nodded.
"Sometimes I think you're more dangerous......" Xia Di whispered.
"What?" Kayiru frowned.
"It's nothing, it's almost there, just call the mentor."
Listening to Xia Di's words, Kayilu nodded, and then took out the cyan silver glowstone from his pocket and injected magic into it.
The Silver Light Stone emits a blinding glow when infused with mana, and then the entire stone turns from cyan to silver, indicating that the item has been activated.
"Young man, can you hear this?" The voice of the mentor came from the stone.
"I heard you, I'm about to enter the rebels' territory, please give instructions." Xia Di motioned for Kayilu to be quiet and said to the stone.
"You first raise the silver glowstone high, and then take a circle around here and let me see the situation around me." The mentor said.
Xia Di nodded, and let Kayilu do so.
"That's it." The mentor suddenly said, "There is a rebel barrier around here, and if you rush in, they will find out...... You first ask the little girl to put what I gave her this morning on the grass 30 meters in front of her current position and 10 meters to the left, and then you can go directly to the rebels' territory. ”
"This is a magic circle for interfering with enchantments, right? After entering, is there a possibility of being discovered? ”
"Normally, no, but if you find out, you can take out another prop I gave you." The mentor said, "That has the effect of hiding your body for a short time, so you can just run out of it while you have the opportunity." ”
"Run? If you don't run, at least you have to collect the materials first. Kayilu interjected.
"You...... That's right. There was a sigh from the mentor's side.
It seems that the mentor is an unexpectedly decent person.
Yesterday, I discussed with her not to tell Kayilu about this, which caused her doubts at first, but after explaining it to her, she understood.
Xia Di looked at Kayilu as he thought.
I don't know if this girl will be able to accept the truth calmly, and if so, let her know.
"Okay, done."
It took the two of them ten minutes to set up the circle, and after confirming with their mentor, they entered the rebels' territory.
The rebel territory was on higher ground, separated from the city of Yeovil by a forest.
On the way to the forest.
The two suddenly noticed something unusual. They quickly crouched down and looked forward.
"What......?"
Not far in front of them, a figure in armor lay on the ground, a shocked expression appeared on his charred face, as if burned by fire, and the corners of his eyes widened.
Xia Di recognized it, this person had seen him in the tavern yesterday, it was a mercenary named Zuo Shilun.
