The day in Greystone begins before dawn, and the poor townspeople always go out early and return late to work, and the wages they get are only enough to buy a piece of black bread, so they rarely think about tomorrow, and it is very hard to live in the present.

But some people don't just think about tomorrow, they even start thinking about the day after tomorrow.

Cizer got up early, and with him was Monet. Cizer had gone to bed early the previous night because of his injury, but the pain in his body kept him awake at night. Monet, on the other hand, was still finishing the experiments his teacher had assigned to him, and he didn't know what time he was busy before he went to bed, when there was still a pair of deep bags under his eyes.

After a brief wash, the two took out the black bread left over from yesterday and nibbled on it with difficulty. Because they didn't wake up, Monet made a mistake when baking bread, and their only remaining black bread completely turned into a black lump, and when they bit into it, the smell of coking coal rushed to their noses, choking the two of them coughing repeatedly.

"Ahem...... Monet, I'll do it next time I bake bread. Cizer drank a glass of water, finally suppressed the burning smell, and said with a frown.

"Damn, when I have money in the future, I must buy freshly baked wheat bread, and I won't eat this stuff again when I am killed!"

"Well, I'll move in with you when the time comes, and enjoy your fluffy and delicious wheat bread. ”

The two of them were arguing, and the movements of their hands were not slow, and Cizer took a few strips of coarse cloth, yawning as he tightly tied his wide cuffs to the cuffs of his trousers.

This is to prevent snakes and insects from the forest from getting into his clothes.

Then he took out a sharp knife, which was also his last possessions. There are many wild beasts in the forest, and a sharp weapon for self-defense is indispensable.

At the same time, Monet on the side took out a few colorful vials from the table and carefully handed them to Cizer, "The red is a healing potion, not a defective product, and the effect of drinking it is the fastest." The green one is the Speed Potion, which can increase your running speed by 10%, and there are two bottles of this, so you can save some money. Monet had a pained look on his face.

Cizer looked at the magic potion in his hand, and felt very uncomfortable. He knew that Monet's main job now was to provide low-level potions for his teacher, but the raw materials of potions were limited, and these bottles of potions must have been withheld by Monet with great difficulty, and he didn't know how he was going to explain to his teacher.

This time in the mountains, Cizer must find the kind of cherished magic herbs, and the herbs on the periphery of the forest are almost extinct, so Cizer has a high probability of going deep into the forest and going to more dangerous places to find magic herbs.

It was when Monet saw this that he gave his cherished potion to Cizer, because he thought it was more important for Cizer to come back alive than these things.

"Thank you, I'll definitely come back with the potions and pass the preliminary exam!" Cizer said goodbye, hiding the tears in his eyes until he turned a corner and reached a place where Monet couldn't see.

Monet watched Cizer disappear at the top of the stairs, his eyes full of worry. He knew that the mountains were not safe, and that Cizer would probably not be able to return.

But he still can't say what to say, if Cizer doesn't fight like this, then he can only stay in Graystone, a town with no tomorrow, which Cizer can't bear.

They both understand that each other is the last thing in this world, so they can't hold another person back.

I hope he can come back safely, Monet prayed silently in his heart, he had never gone to church to worship, and his face was now glowing with piety.

......

The Heavenly Broken Mountain Range, as a natural barrier between the demons and the Radiant Empire, every Empire can tell no less than ten legendary stories about it, among which the most widely spread is probably the story of the first king of the Radiant Empire who led a hundred Templars to repel the 100,000 army of demons here.

Although this kind of story is often exaggerated, it does not affect the status of the battle known as the Holy War in the hearts of the people of the Radiant Empire.

Cizer often imagined the scene of more than a hundred Templars with swords in hand, roaring in the face of the influx of demon armies.

The sword is shining and the sword is swords, and the blood is soaring.

That's what Cizer thinks of a knight.

Whenever he stepped on the land at the foot of the Heavenly Broken Mountains, Cizer always felt the ancient Heroic Spirit watching him, and his blood boiled.

But today, Cizer had a sad look on his face, and he had just walked through a section of grass when he was almost attacked by a lurking python.

Thanks to his self-defense knife, he didn't let him die in the belly of the snake.

Cizer continued to explore, but the magic herbs were hard to find, and Cizer did not pick those herbs that were not old enough.

This is what Monet told him, if everyone picks herbs uncontrollably, then soon there will be no potions at the edge of the forest, and people will have to go to the more dangerous depths of the forest, or simply starve to death.

But since entering the forest in the morning, when the sun has just risen in the east, and now that the sun is hanging in the corner of the western sky, Cizer has also touched the outer part of the forest, but there is still no gain. Predictably, in less than an hour, it would be completely dark, and Cizer would have to start thinking about his accommodation in the wilderness.

"I haven't seen a magic potion for a whole day......"

Although he had expected it, Cizer still looked a little depressed, and glanced at the endless Heavenly Broken Mountain Range, his eyes revealing a hint of longing and deep fear.

The roar of a tiger from nowhere resounded in the mountains and forests, followed by the roars of various unknown beasts, which quietly extinguished Cizer's newly rising thoughts.

"If you go into the depths of the forest, you're going to feast those beasts, right?" thought Cezel.

Cizer, who had been wandering around the periphery of the Great Forest of the Demon Abyss all day, was exhausted, and the dark night of the Great Forest of the Demon Abyss was a hunting ground for those fierce beasts, and Cizer didn't want to really become a piece of meat in the mouth of the beasts.

Hurriedly picking up a pile of hay around him, Cizer came to the foot of a towering tree that he had explored during the day, as if he knew the way, and climbed up in three or two clicks.

Hidden by the canopy, a small space is well protected, a nest that Cizer has prepared for himself.

Spreading the hay, Cizer curled up in the newly-built nest, his thin figure accompanying the small space, and no one would have thought that a twelve-year-old boy could be hidden in the canopy of the tree when he looked at it from the outside.

A few rays of the setting sun peeked through the gaps in the leaves and reflected in Cezel's eyes, slightly dimmed.

Tomorrow, I wonder if I can find a magic herb......

If I had been a little stronger, I wouldn't have to spend Copper Coins for Charge Potions and I would have been able to pass the Beginner exam......

I wonder if Monet was scolded by his teacher for stealing a magic potion......

Cizer, who was slowly sleeping, did not know that this night was not peaceful for the Demon Abyss Great Forest.

The beasts walked uneasily back and forth in circles, snorting from time to time, but they were not asserting their territorial claims, but rather submitting to some unknown being.

They didn't know where he was, but the endless majesty of that man had overwhelmed the demonic beasts in the entire Demon Abyss Great Forest, and they were begging for mercy, begging that unknown being would spare them.

Quite a few wild beasts have fallen into a coma, and scattered animals can be seen everywhere on the ground, rabbits, squirrels, and even wild wolves.

Those demonic beasts that already possessed low-level wisdom were also very puzzled, the coercion suddenly fell from the sky when it was just dark, but no matter how they searched, they could not find the source of this coercion. This coercion pervades every corner of the Demon Abyss Great Forest, and the coercion everywhere is the same.

If you had to guess, it would only be inferred.

This coercion comes from this dark night sky.

......

In the void, a black crack as thin as a hair suddenly appeared, and a crimson light burst out, quickly rushing towards the forest below.

However, the escape of the point of light was not so smooth, and a suction force came from the crack, dragging the red point of light back into the endless abyss. Despite its struggles, its speed inevitably slowed down.

Seeing that the speed of the red light point was getting slower and slower, and when it was about to be pulled by the suction coming from the crack, it seemed to sense its own situation, and in an instant, the red light flourished, and then its speed suddenly increased dramatically, and it rushed into the dark forest below with lightning speed.

The crack hadn't even reacted yet, but in the blink of an eye, it was enraged, and an even more powerful suction force came out of it. Countless giant trees in the forest shook, and some fallen leaves and even unconscious animals couldn't help but fly towards the sky.

But before it could last for three seconds, the suction coming out of the crack suddenly stopped, and it seemed to have lost its trace of the red point of light. The crack opened and closed for a moment, as if searching for traces of points of light.

And after the search was fruitless, the crack slowly and reluctantly healed, and soon disappeared.

The forest was calm again, and the coercion that had terrified the monsters was gone, and it seemed like a long time, but it was only a short process. When the dust settled, it was as if it were just a dream, and nothing had happened.

It's just that I don't know if it's a coincidence or not, the place where the red light fell happened to be the area where Sissel was, as if it was going straight there.
