After passing through a large stone paved road, the Iron Shield Mercenary Regiment's Hagarcia Guardian came to the forest path, a long path known as a tree-lined path, clearly marked on the map. Walking on the tree-lined path, watching the golden sunlight shine through the small gaps between the canopies and hit the ground to form mottled points of light, Yi Hui's mood is relaxed and happy. Scott walked at the front of the group as usual to scout, Occam rode in the middle of the group to take care of the pack horses and supplies, and Shiebel and Occam rode together. Jin Li and Yi Hui walked together with the Garcia family warrior team. Jin Li carried the big sword on his shoulder, and the stem of a green grass in his mouth chatted with Yi Hui without a match.

Since it was in the forest, the speed of the whole team was not very fast. Mr. Merrim sat straight on his horse, his eyes closed, and the reins of the horse were held in the hands of a young Garcia warrior.

The Garcia warriors were clearly on their first trip, and their faces were full of curiosity and excitement, but none of them were noisy in the ranks, which showed the well-trained nature of the young men.

At a distance of two hundred meters behind the team, the trio of "Dark Rats" followed the team from a distance.

"I mean, boss, is it worth the effort for this task? It's such a long way to go," Gagabi complained to Lauretta, carrying a heavy package.

"Shut up, this mission may not be a big deal in your eyes, but it's quite important for our entire 'Dark Rat' bandof thieves." Lauretta reprimanded loudly, "Do you know how many people I begged for this task? If it weren't for my master's ability to speak in the guild, we would have been able to receive this task? How long has it been since we've been in the Thieves' Guild on a decent mission? If we don't complete the task beautifully, we may be removed from the Thieves' Guild. That sword was the kid's weapon, and it must have been worn now. Do you understand? Idiot! ”

"If that's the case, it's better to tie up that kid and torture him." Carey said.

"Regardless of this issue, even if we don't care about the prestige of our thieves in the guild, now that we obviously don't have a chance to do it, how can we kidnap people with such a large team?" Lauretta vetoed Carey's proposal.

Carey's eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "Boss, I have a way." Then Carey whispered in Laurita's ear.

"Good way." Laureta clapped her hands and exclaimed, "This is not a way to break the rules of the thieves, and you can get that sword, Carey, you are really getting more and more clever." That's what we do. ”

With that, the trio of "Dark Rats" sped up and took another path.

Unconsciously, more than ten days have passed, Yi Hui and they have walked hundreds of kilometers on the tree-lined path, and nothing special happened along the way, but the cautious Occam will send Scott to conduct a comprehensive reconnaissance within a radius of about 200 meters every time he camps in a camp, and every time Scott investigates, he has to take Yi Hui with him, saying that he wants to exercise in the thief subject.

The "whooshing" Scott walked quickly through the treetops, like a nimble ape, doing movements that only a physical athlete could do, and Yi Hui ran under the trees to barely keep up with Scott's marching speed.

"Yi Hui, you have to be quicker, pay attention to the bushes, stones, and weeds under your feet. A good thief must try to avoid direct contact with obstacles, and dodging and bypassing is what a thief does. If you feel like you can rush through with brute force, then go and become a warrior. Scott grabbed a branch in front of him with one hand, and with the elastic force of the branch, his figure was more than ten meters away.

Yi Hui gritted his teeth under the tree and chased, panting like a cow.

The reconnaissance range around the temporary camp is about 1 kilometer, and the team has advanced to this extent that there is no smooth road to walk, and the path that has been there before has been overgrown with weeds and shrubs and the like, making the road looming, as early as 3 days ago, two soldiers were arranged in front of the whole team to open the road, and the future journey will become more and more difficult. The road within the scouting radius of the makeshift camp was now mostly covered in weeds and shrubs, and Scott encountered even fewer obstacles as he swayed through the branches. Yi Hui didn't fail to notice this, and after an attempt to climb a tree and fall, Yi Hui didn't dare to imitate Scott again.

In just two or three minutes, Scott had already circled around the camp, and after his reconnaissance found that there was nothing unusual around the camp, he went back to think that Occam and Mr. Merriam were safe. And Yi Hui's training is still not over, before lunch is ready, he has to run a full ten laps around the camp in a kilometer of bushes and weeds and rocks, otherwise he will not have to eat lunch, this is the task that Scott gave Yi Hui.

But then again, after more than ten days of training, Yi Hui can clearly feel that he has made another step in agility and physique, and he has made the most progress in agility, which shows that Scott still has two brushes in Yi Hui's training. Yi Hui didn't feel very tired from training due to the 80 stamina bonus provided by the Sword of Dolan, but the consumption of a day was still a bit much. Moreover, in these high-intensity trainings, Yi Hui's physical strength also has a slow growth trend.

Occam sat side by side with Mr. Merim in the camp, and learned a lot about running a business, which Mr. Merim told Occam a lot along the way, which benefited Occam a lot, and Merim was also amazed that Occam was such a big man, but he had a brilliant mind and a heart to observe everything.

Jinli also found a young Garcia family guard soldier to compete in fighting skills, and he had been looking for those fighters to compete every day, and he had won for several days in a row. His name in the Warrior Guild is a level 3 great sword warrior, but his strength is level 4, and he is just too lazy to take the warrior qualification level exam. In his words: "If I can't beat a master in the face of him, it's useless to carry a high level on my back, if I have beaten him, what is the use of my level?" It's okay to have strength. Although he is not very particular about bullying the small, he will give those young people their shortcomings and some suggestions for correction at the end of the competition. Therefore, these young people are still happy to fight with Jinli.

Kinley's opponent this time is a young man with a ponytail, who is the captain of this team of fighters sent by the Garcia family. His name was Ibi, his weapon was a one-handed sword, and he also carried a small steel shield two feet square on his left arm, and it seemed that he was following the path of defense and counterattack.

Holding the broadsword, Jinli slowly walked around Ibi, his eyes shining with excitement. Ibi stood still, the shield in his left hand tightly protected the vital point in his chest, always on guard against Jinli's attack, and looked at Jinli without blinking. Suddenly, without warning, Kim Lee moved, and he stabbed Ibby diagonally into the right leg with his broadsword. Ibi was startled, and immediately took a small half step back, and then leaned his shield towards Jinli's greatsword to use it to dissolve the power of Jinli's sprint, and at the same time, his right foot staggered backwards and turned around Jinli's back, and reflexively slashed down. The young warriors who were watching around secretly applauded in their hearts when they saw such an electric counterattack, thinking that it seemed that this time Ibi would be able to save some face for the Garcia family.

Jinli is about to overdo the sprint, and his moves are getting old, and his back is about to be slashed by Ibi's one-handed sword. Who knows, in an instant, Jin Li raised his hands and blocked Ibi's attack with the hilt of his sword, and the huge anti-shock force made Ibi's right hand sore, and almost knocked the sword away. After Jinli blocked Ibi's blow, the distance between the two was less than a meter, which made it impossible for his greatsword to swing freely, and if Ibi recovered, the situation would be quite unfavorable for Jinli. Something unexpected happened, just when everyone agreed that Jinli would fall into a situation where he would be beaten passively, the only way out was to open the distance and then attack, Jinli threw down his big sword and hugged Ibi directly from behind with both hands, and a back bridge fell to the ground and only made Ibi dizzy, and then then twisted his body and fell to Ibi again, and then controlled Ibi's hands and feet with a limiting skill, so that Ibi could only admit defeat.

Seeing that Ibi had conceded defeat, Jinli let him go. Patting the dust off his body, Jinli said to Ibi, "Do you know where your weaknesses are? It's just too obsessed with your weapons and moves, and although the previous reflexive blow is beautiful and gorgeous, this trick exposes your empty space. Maybe you think that getting close to me limits my greatsword, but you don't know that I will be a boxer or a wrestler when I drop my greatsword. Remember, forget about your weapons and tricks, and defeat your opponents with the most direct and practical means. Your goal is to get to the opponent, not to pull off those flashy tricks. ”

Ibi nodded convincingly and bowed to Jinli. The other fighters were also quite convinced of Jinli's words, and they also gained a lot of experience in this competition.

"Everyone is coming to eat, if you don't come, it will be cold." Shiebel beckoned the group to dinner, and she had prepared a pot of soup by the campfire mixed with dried meat and locally gathered mushrooms, and the dry food pastry was baked hot and crunchy. It's pretty good to have such a meal away from home.

Yi Hui returned to the camp after ten laps, just in time for the meal, he grabbed a few pieces of dough and filled a bowl of soup and began to feast. Three times five divided by two, after lunch, Yi Hui was satisfied with lying on the ground and touching his bulging belly. He had to hurry up and rest, and the rest after the meal was only half an hour, and after half an hour the team would start marching again.
