The wide river sparkles in the sunlight that leaks through the leaves. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Schools of fish swimming under the clear water can be seen.

Compared to the barrenness of the western wilderness, the location next to the river can be said to be a world of difference! Not only are there large areas of green vegetation, but there are also many trees as tall as those in the Elwyn Forest.

The meadows by the river, though damp, are much cooler than walking in the unsheltered wilderness.

But compared to the comfort in the hearts of refugees, Xiao Yi is much more difficult! The first few days were fine, except for a few refugees who tried to escape, everyone else was quite honest.

But on the third day, disaster finally happened!

A huge vulture with black feathers and red tail feathers attacked the team, a monster known locally as the Great Corpse Breaker, who took a girl who was picking berries from a bush alone, tore her to pieces, and swallowed her stomach!

Although the guards later set a trap to kill the raptor, they found that the dangers accompanying the party were much more than that!

The large and bloated refugee ranks make it difficult for administrators to keep an eye on whether the refugees have fled, but they have no way of knowing if the number of refugees has decreased.

Although Edie has been estimating the number of refugees through the distribution of food, the effect is not obvious, after all, not everyone who distributes food is selfless, even if you distribute twice as much food, the refugees can give you clean food!

As for the roll call count? Oh my God, spare most of these farmers who count to 10 and then go under the circle!

And sometimes, some lonely refugees, seeing this huge team, will ask to join. What's more, sometimes you will find that this man's wife is a woman named Jennifer today, and the next day, she has become a woman named Abby, but Edie searched through all the rosters and found no woman named Abby, so she had to re-register this person!

The presence of known refugees and unknown refugees all the time made Xiao Yi anxious about the management of refugees. But it is very strange that the overall number of these refugees has not increased much!

In the past, it was only known that the loss rate of refugees was very high, but it was always impossible to find the reason, because it was rare to find dead bodies, and the militia and guards were also very responsible to watch over the refugees to prevent them from being separated during the march.

However, it was difficult to take care of when camping, and the huge camp was far from being able to be fully monitored by more than two dozen guards, so Xiao Yi had to select some strong refugees and give them rudimentary wooden spears, raising the number of militias to 50.

It wasn't until after the Corpse Breaker attacked the refugees that the guards were cleaning up the threat that they discovered that a large number of predatory beasts had gathered around the team!

Zombie birds watching from high altitudes, mountain dogs hanging far behind the refugee team, and even guards spotted that on the edge of the twilight forest across the river, there was often a kind of grizzly bear standing up and standing three meters tall!

Refugees who are withdrawn or marginalized when camping at night will always create opportunities for these predators. Humans who have no power to resist are simply the easiest food to hunt!

In order to strengthen his defense, Xiao Yi had to send more manpower, so that the number of guards around him dropped to only one, and the head of the guard, Sherif had already worn many hats because of his excellent management skills.

As the largest source of water in the Western Wilderness, the river attracts so many creatures that predators love to hunt in such places.

The shrubs that can be found everywhere are so much better than the open terrain of the wilderness! Therefore, these predators followed this group of refugees far behind the team as soon as they found it.

That's why, even though the river is more advantageous than the inland land, there are no farmers who have cultivated farmland nearby!

In addition to the threat of wild beasts, the reason for the constant attrition of the refugees is that these bastards are dying themselves!

Most of these hungry refugees used to be the inhabitants of the Elwyn Forest, and many of them would search the forest for food to eat, such as mushrooms.

Like the little girl who searched for berries alone, many hungry refugees, if they found something to eat during the march, they would gather it and cook it at rest or eat it raw.

They have a lot of experience in forest survival, but that doesn't mean they can be used on the way to escape!

For example, a lumberjack found a lot of white fungi that emitted moonshine in a bush, and he swore that it was a non-poisonous moonshine fungus, and he and his close friends and family collected all of the fungi and ate them.

The result is sad, this fungus is indeed non-toxic, it can also be eaten, and many lumberjacks will add a little to the soup when they are constipated to relieve the pain. After this group of people consumed a large amount, it was even more terrible than taking laxatives! Until now, those idiots are still being carried on stretchers!

There are countless examples of this, and perhaps the plants that can be used in the Elwyn Forest have mutated in the Wild West for some reason. Of course, there are also locals who say that these plants are polluted by the magical power of the Twilight Forest.

But the people of Alwyn Forest did not believe it, many of their loggers had been to the Twilight Forest to cut wood, and it was a nice sunny place, and the good quality timber was much better than that of Alwyn Forest.

The two groups of people are very inconsistent in their descriptions of the Twilight Forest, with the people of Alwyn Forest saying that although it is darker in the evening than in other places, it is a sunny jungle during the day. The people of the Western Wilderness, however, say that in recent times, the Twilight Forest has been devoid of sunlight, and shadows have shrouded it, and all creatures that come close to the forest will be distorted!

Some of them said they had seen humanoid wolves on the other side of the river! It's not a gnoll kind, it's a wolf that actually walks upright! And say that these humanoid wolves were once inhabitants of the Twilight Forest, but now they are distorted by the power of evil magic.

Of course, most people don't agree with this kind of statement, and no one believes that there can be such a black monster, let alone magic that can turn people into monsters! Although those mages sometimes turn children into lambs to cook.

Xiao Yi is devastated! Whether it's the threat of the beast, the management of chaos; Or those rumor mongers who try to lower your IQ to the same level as him, and then use their rich experience to defeat you, all give Xiao Yi a headache all the time.
