Chapter 13: Swift Scout Nature's Wrath
The mushrooms that were crushed by the mushrooms emitted a strange gas.
"Ahem, how do I feel paralyzed." Raven and Ibeth said at the same time.
Edward could smell the dust as well, but the Chaotic Body's strong poison resistance kept him from being paralyzed.
At this moment, the rune shield on Raven's armor in front of everyone suddenly lit up.
"Not good, there is an ambush ahead! It seems to be a weapon like a blow arrow. Raven said as he looked around warily.
"Human, get out of the forest!" A voice that looked like a little ghost shouted.
"Huh?" Everyone was stunned when they heard this voice.
"Halflings, I seem to see a group of halflings." Ash, who was in charge of observing the enemy behind, quickly arrived, and finally found the enemy's traces using Eagle Eye skills.
"Elves? There are elves in the team opposite the captain! It seemed that Ash's presence startled the shadowy figure.
"Hello halflings, we are refugees, and there is a group of bad people coming to arrest us behind, please save us." When Edward heard that the halfling was easy to do.
Halflings are all good races, so the reason why they attacked just now may be because they thought that they and others were bad people, and Ash should be able to convince Halflings to come forward.
"Well, there is a sixth-level flame mage behind us, and I see that he burned a lot of wood." Ash also has a good deal with halflings in the Frost Forest, and in fact, there are many halfling villages in various forests in the Northlands, and they are considered a race that has a good relationship with the elves.
"I see, then you follow me, Tita, you go and inform the village chief." A small figure finally emerged from the woods, after all, the identity of the Ash elf was still very good.
"Yes, Captain!" A small figure behind him disappeared after speaking.
Looking at the short man in front of him, wearing a round hat and leather coat at the same time, and holding a bamboo blowgun at the same height as himself, Edward thought that this halfling with the lead looked like a squirrel.
There were seven of them in total, and there were six more than the one who had just reported the news.
In terms of equipment, it's all about the same, except that the squirrel captain's blowgun is a little longer. And depending on the situation, the captain should be a senior professional, and the other six team members are all intermediate professionals.
"I'm Timo Blowgun, the leader of the Swift Scout Squad, and since you're not a bad guy, come with us." Teemo seemed to be sure that Edward's team was relatively young. It didn't seem to have any malice, and there were elves there, so they stopped talking nonsense and led everyone to the forest.
With Teemo, who was familiar with the road, led the way, the speed of the group more than doubled.
And the three teams chasing behind were not so lucky.
The special mushrooms planted by the halflings on the ground keep them in a paralyzing predicament.
These mushrooms are very small. Besides, it was planted in weeds and always stepped on it without paying attention.
Even hunters familiar with the jungle have never seen this mushroom.
Troubled, they even lost their traces of Edward and the others under the cover of Timo.
Everyone has been hungry since the morning tracking, and now they have lost their targets, which makes all the pursuers very angry.
This strange forest has become a place for them to vent, and because a lot of the supplies are left on the ship, I don't know how long the pursuit will last, so many people need to go hunting.
(Space items are very precious, and ordinary hero-level powerhouses can only use storage backpacks and the like, which can reduce the volume and weight of the objects inside.) )
And the process of their destruction of the forest is all clearly seen by the swift scouts who are hidden on the sidelines.
In the forest, Edward and the others were also resting and eating. After all, they are not iron-clad, and since the other party has lost track of themselves, it is best to stop and rest.
Because of Teemo's existence, everyone also ate a lot of special fruits from the forest.
"Meet me as Ash Ice, an ice elf from the Frost Forest." Ash said generously, although the ice elf does not know what kind of elf it is, but it is still an elf, and it seems to be a very kind and simple elf, Teemo also noticed the ice bow in Ash's hand, but he did not show any greedy eyes.
"Greenham Rune Warrior Raven." Greenham is the realm of rune dwarves, and halflings and dwarves have always had a good relationship. Although it was strange why Raven was able to become a rune warrior as a human, he smiled back.
"Yag Savage, the Savage tribe of the Northlands." The barbarians are a rather chaotic race, but since the first two were on good terms with halflings, they didn't say anything to Yogtimoh.
"Traveling Mage Edward White." Edward was also unable to get Timo's attention.
In fact, it was Ebesse, who turned into a halfling, that cared most of the most.
Although Timo's eyes were clear. But he still kept looking at Ibise, after all, Ibace's charm is still very strong.
"Frost Forest Ebesse." Ibeth also said simply.
"Hello, hello." The little squirrel's face was full of smiles, and the difference was really obvious!
With the presence of Ibesi, Timo obviously relaxed a lot of vigilance, after all, in this world, the concept of race is still very important.
The scouts who observe the flame mages relay the message to Timo.
Teemo immediately said angrily, "Those guys are really not good people. ”
"Yes. However, they have two hero-level powerhouses, and there are still a lot of them, so it is difficult for us to deal with them. Edward immediately nodded, placing Teemo in the "our" camp.
Teemo didn't care about that, as Teemo, who aspired to be the strongest scout, anyone who destroyed the forest was an enemy.
"Don't worry, I've already informed my chief, and when the chief comes, these guys will definitely not have any good fruit to eat." Timo said firmly.
"Sir? Do you still have a sir? Edward asked, a little strangely.
Although Teemo's team has always been very disciplined, but because the halflings are relatively small and look like children, I didn't expect that they originally thought it was a militia organization in the village, but now there is really a military organization.
"Of course, our Swift Scout Squad belongs to the Jungle Fury Legion." Teemo said proudly.
"Wrath of the Jungle!" Ash and Raven both said in surprise.
"What's the matter?" Edward asked curiously.
The Wrath of the Jungle is one of the three strongest legions under the jurisdiction of the Nature Sect, and it is also the strongest and most diverse of the three legions.
The Jungle Fury Legion contains the elite of a large number of Nature Sects, notably Forest Rangers, Elven Archers, and Pegasus Knights.
The other two are the Nature's Whisper Priesthood of Nature Priests and Dryads, and the Wild Vault Druids.
As the messenger of God, the language of nature naturally has a very high status and right to speak.
Wild druids are the most belligerent and wild of the elves, and most of them have a cult of the dragons of the earth. Such fanatics are naturally very powerful, but they are also more aggressive, contemptuous or hostile to any non-naturalistic sect. So if you don't believe in the Nature Sect, you might be killed easily if you run into them.
The Legion of Nature's Wrath is much better, guarding the forest is their highest goal, and other good or evil is not too strong in their eyes.
So any attempt to destroy the forest will face their wrath, such as those who pursue it. (To be continued.) )
