Walking out of the desert where the lizards were hiding, the scenery suddenly changed, and a dense jungle appeared in front of the two of them, and in the middle of the jungle, there was a path that winded into the depths of the dense forest. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Ning Hai carefully compared the scrolls. "Looks like that's right." Ning Hai took the lead and walked along the path.

The monsters refreshed in the jungle should be at least level five or higher, and Ning Hai and Deng Ke'er walked for a long time without seeing a single leveling player. Walking through it, there are birds and apes singing from time to time, which is very quiet and far away. Such a quiet environment is quite in line with Ning Hai's heart, he is not a person who likes to join in the fun.

The two of them walked briskly on the forest path, and soon came to a three-way junction.

"It should be almost there." Ning Hai looked at the scroll for a long time, chose an overgrown path, walked in, and ran towards the red cross marked on the map.

"Are you sure it's the way?" Deng Ke'er couldn't help frowning as she looked at the dense weeds in front of her. Girls are always afraid of creatures that may be dormant under the weeds, and beauties like Deng Keer are no exception.

"That's right, you're right to come along." Ning Hai said as he walked, and when he turned a corner, he disappeared, and his voice sounded farther and farther away.

"Humph!" Deng Ke'er stomped his foot hatefully, and reluctantly followed Ning Hai into waist-deep grass.

The further he went, the narrower the path became, thinking of strange creatures such as snakes and spiders that might appear in the grass, Deng Ke'er could no longer care about the hard thatch that might cut through his delicate skin, and ran forward with his face covered.

Ning Hai, who was holding a sheepskin scroll at the end of the path to study the route, saw Deng Ke'er's panicked look, and thought that Deng Ke'er had encountered some monster that he couldn't handle, and his first reaction was to directly touch out the dagger hanging on his waist, and stared vigilantly at the grass behind Deng Ke'er.

After half an hour, there was not even the slightest movement in the grass, Ning Hai turned his head in wonder and asked Deng Ke'er, who was hiding behind him: "What's wrong with you?" Did you see something strange? ”

"No ......" Deng Ke'er just lowered his head and lay on Ning Hai's back, his voice was as thin as a mosquito flying by: "I can't see you anymore, I'm afraid that there will be strange things in the grass, but the more I think about it, the more scared I become." ”

Hearing Deng Ke'er's reason, Ning Hai couldn't help but laugh dumbly. I thought that Deng Keer's courage to practice to the fifth level alone was quite fat, but who knew that he accidentally exposed the girl's heart.

"Don't be afraid." Ning Hai patted Deng Ke'er's hand on his waist, and said with a smile: "I'm here." ”

When Deng Ke'er heard this, she was stunned and raised her little face, which had already frightened pear blossoms, and suddenly reacted to her gaffe just now, hurriedly turned around and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and a touch of crimson appeared on her cheeks.

"We're here." When Deng Ke'er's mood calmed down a little, Ning Hai pointed to a low forest and said.

Deng Ke'er raised his head and looked in the direction of Ning Hai's finger, only to see that behind this low forest, a dilapidated village suddenly appeared, and it seemed that the clue of the copy was hidden here.

Ning Hai and Deng Ke'er carefully bypassed the giant tooth spider that refreshed in the low woods and came to the entrance of the small village.

System Hint: You have found the village of Saletan.

Inside the village, there are seven or eight thatched houses scattered around, and many orc NPCs are busy in the village, and when they see Ning Hai and Deng Ke'er, two outsiders, the NPCs are all looking at them curiously.

Ning Hai looked around the village, the thatched hut was very dilapidated and dilapidated due to the perennial erosion of wind and rain, from this point of view, the beast clan NPCs here lived very hard.

"Isn't it the NPC of the Fallen Elves who sent you the quest?" Ning Hai felt a little strange and asked Deng Ke'er beside him, "Why did the mission lead us to this orc village?" ”

"I don't know." Deng Keer said softly. Since being hit by Ning Hai to break through Deng Keer's shy side, Deng Keer has also returned to his gentle side, thinking that he was annoyed by the wild bees and butterflies that have been haunting him, and Deng Keer had to pretend to have a pungent image that rejects people thousands of miles away.

"Go find a few NPCs to talk to each other and see if you can find any clues." Ning Hai's gaze searched the village. In the middle of the village, Ning Hai saw a taller thatched house, which looked much newer than the other buildings compared to the other thatched houses next to it, probably because of frequent repairs, and was the best building in the whole village.

"Go there and have a look." Ning Hai walked towards the thatched hut in the center of the village.

The two of them came to the thatched hut, "Is there anyone?" Ning Hai asked politely.

The curtain in front of the thatched hut was lifted, and an old orc elder trembling came out, holding a staff in his hand, his face wrinkled, and his gray beard braided into a long braid hanging down his chest, like a weathered old willow tree.

"Ahem...... "Ahem," the orc elder said with great difficulty, "I am the village chief of Sarettan Village, and I haven't seen outsiders come to our village for a long time, do you have anything to do?" ”

"That's right." Ning Hai opened his mouth and asked, "We want to ask you, do you know that a girl from the fallen elf clan has ever been here?" ”

"Linda?" The orc village chief Syrant thought for a moment and said, "Yes, she was indeed a beautiful girl when she came here with Ferry twenty years ago. ”

There's a play! Ning Hai and Deng Ke'er glanced at each other with a smile.

"Ferry?" Ning Hai asked with a twist, "Who is he?" ”

"Oh...... Ferry? The orc village chief Silant glanced at Ning Hai up and down, and said slowly, "He, like you, is a handsome young man from the undead clan. ”

After saying this, the orc village chief Silant glanced at Deng Ke'er beside Ning Hai and asked, "Young man, is this beautiful girl next to you your companion?" ”

"Yes." Ning Hai replied respectfully.

"You're a good match." The orc village chief Silant looked at the two people standing together, and said appreciatively, "It reminds me of Ferry and Linda twenty years ago. ”

Listening to the words of the old village chief of the orcs, Deng Ke'er looked quite unnatural, but he couldn't refute it, for fear of interrupting the clues of the mission.

Ning Hai also felt a little unnatural, turned his head and saw Deng Ke'er's shyness, and jumped a few times in his heart for no reason.

"Tell me, then, where can we find them now?" Ning Hai calmed down and asked politely.

"A long time ago, our Orc tribe, the Kinodivar tribe, lived in this quiet and peaceful jungle." The orc village chief Syrant looked at the towering mountain peaks on the opposite side and said, "Relying on the ore produced on the opposite side of Mount Harbert, we have exchanged the food and daily items we need from the outside world, and we live a quiet and contented life. Twenty years ago, Ferry and Linda, a couple as young and compatible as you, came to my village and begged me to let them stay here, and how could I refuse the request of two young men as old as my children for the hospitable people of Kinodiwa? As for why they came here, they didn't say, and I didn't ask. ”

The orc village chief Silant paused, perhaps because of his age, listening to him always gave people a very difficult feeling.

The old man's eyes suddenly deepened, and the memories seemed to bring the old man back to that long ago, and after a moment, the orc village chief Silant continued: "After living in the village, Ferry and Linda quickly settled into the quiet and peaceful life of Saretan Village, and my people and I quickly accepted them, and since then, Ferry has gone to the mines on Mount Harbert to mine ore for daily expenses, just like other young people in the village. However, such good times only lasted four years....... ”

Speaking of this, the expression on the face of the old orc village chief suddenly became very painful, and his body began to tremble slightly.

"Are you alright?" Seeing this, Ning Hai hurriedly stepped forward to hug the old man, and Deng Ke'er on the side obediently moved out of the thatched house a wooden bench, and the two of them helped the old man to sit down.

Ning Hai and Deng Ke'er didn't ask any more questions about the clues of the dungeon mission, and sat quietly beside the old man.

After a while, the old orc village chief calmed down a little, and said: "One day four years ago, a ghostly lord with powerful magic suddenly appeared in Harbert's mine, and he turned all the young people in the cave into thoughtless zombies and became his servants, and young Ferry was among them. I once organized men to try to go into the mine to kill this ghost lord and reclaim the mine that belonged to us, but before we could enter the mine, we were attacked by zombies! In the face of these former clansmen, no one could wield their weapons, and in order to avoid more casualties, I had to order everyone to retreat. Since then, the zombies have completely occupied the mine, because there is no way to collect ore, the village has fallen into poverty, the shadow of plague and death has enveloped the whole village, the inhabitants have died and walked, and the original village of a few thousand people is only a few hundred people left. And poor Linda, after waiting for half a year, could not wait for Ferry, who came back alive, and at last, she made up her mind to go to the mine alone to find her dearest, and I have not seen her since. ”

Ning Hai dragged Deng Ke'er and said to the old man: "Okay then, let's try our luck in the mine." "All the clues point to the mine, and it seems that this is where the copy is.

"Please wait a minute, Linda left me something when she left, saying that if Ferry came back, I would give it to him when he returned, and now that so many years have passed, I think you can use it to put it to some use." The orc village chief, Syrant, struggled to get up from the small wooden bench and walked into the thatched hut tremblingly. Not long after, the old orc village chief put a necklace in Ning Hai's hand.

Ning Hai took a look at the necklace in his hand, the pendant of the necklace was inlaid with a few purple crystals to look like a vine rose, so many years have passed, and the light flashing on the crystal is still the same.

Linda's thoughts, grade: white suit, task supplies.

"It's a mission." After reading it, Ning Hai handed it to Deng Ke'er and said, "You can take it with you, maybe you will be able to set off on the mission clue when you can." ”

"Hmm." Deng Keer took the necklace and carefully put it around his neck, and the purple fluorescent flow on the chain pendant made the snow-white skin on Deng Keer's neck more and more deceitful.

"Oh...... You're as beautiful as Linda back then! The old chief of the orc village exclaimed, "I hope your arrival will bring good luck to the village, and may the beast god be with you." ”

"Let's go, let's go to the mines." Ning Hai sent a private message to Deng Keer.

Deng Keer received the message and nodded. Ning Hai's sensitivity to the task had made Deng Keer unconsciously dependent, and gradually got used to the arrangements he made.

The two of them said goodbye to the old orc village chief and walked towards the outside of the village.

"Please wait!" A middle-aged orc NPC ran up panting and pouting.

"What's the matter?" Ning Hai asked politely, everything that happened in this village could be related to the quest, and Ning Hai also hoped to get more clues.

"Are you going to the mines?" The orc NPC asked very sincerely.

"Yes." Ning Hai replied.

"My name is Scott, and I'm familiar with the terrain in the mines, and I want to be your guide." Scott the orc said.

Deng Ke'er looked at Ning Hai inquiringly, Ning Hai nodded, the appearance of the orc Scott at this time must also be an important part of the mission, maybe only through him, the two of them can find the real entrance to the dungeon.

"Please come with me." Scott, the orc, said and led the two of them in the direction of the foot of the mountain.

The closer you get to the foot of the mountain, the denser the jungle becomes. Walking in it, the lush trees block most of the sunlight, and a trace of eerie aura spreads through the forest.

The orc Scott didn't care about this, pulled out the wood knife hanging from his waist, and kept chopping the bushes and vines blocking the middle of the road, and the group of three slowly walked towards the foot of the mountain. Deng Ke'er became nervous again at this time, and followed Ning Hai's back, not daring to move away from a single step.

After walking for a long time, the people came to the foot of the mountain. "The mine is halfway up Mount Harbert." The orc Scott wiped his sweat and said.

"Still halfway up the mountain?" Deng Ke'er looked at the endless weeds and shrubs, and was a little overwhelmed.

"Don't worry." The orc Scott said lightly: "After going up the mountain, the weeds will not be as lush as they are now, although the road is a little steeper, but the speed of travel will definitely be much faster than now." ”

Hearing this, Deng Keer's tense heart finally eased a lot.

"Then let's go." Ning Hai said. It's past noon, and if you don't hurry, you won't be able to get to the entrance of the mine before dark.

Following Hubbert's mountain path, the trio headed in the direction of the mountainside.

The higher you go, the steeper the terrain becomes. The gap between the thief and the mage was also fully reflected at this time, Ning Hai could easily jump up the steep mountain rock, while Deng Ke'er was much more difficult.

"Come on." Ning Hai stretched out his hand to Deng Ke'er under the rock wall.

Deng Ke'er's face was slightly red, he held Ning Hai's hand, and climbed the rock wall with his strength. I can't tell why, Deng Ke'er's heart suddenly bumped into a deer.

Ninghai's situation is not much better. Between the tentacles, Deng Keer's softness was tender, making Ning Hai breathe.

"We're coming." The voice of the orc Scott, trembling with fear, pulled Ning Hai back to reality. (To be continued.) )
