Everyone knows that in this seemingly leisurely life, there is a deeper and lower feeling. But now no one knows how to make this love subside, so they can only hide as if they don't know for the time being.

One day, however, someone lifted the covering cloth.

"That's right, I'm ready to leave. Thank you all for taking care of me these days. ”

It was Ryan who offered to leave. As the person who has joined this team for the shortest time, his departure is actually a matter of course.

said to join, but in fact, it is just a peer for a period of time...... Originally, it was just for Ji Ran to help him transform the four undead cores, but later he was dazzled by the rare materials that Ji Ran took out, so Ryan has been following everyone. This is not to say that the crowd treats him as an outsider, in fact, after the battle of Ironforge, the crowd has come to regard him as a companion.

But Ryan is different from them, Ryan has his own home, and he will go back sooner or later. And now, it was time for him to leave.

"I have a great time with you guys, and I even want to be with you all the time...... But at least for now, it's not likely. I don't think you hate me, but I have my own things to do...... For example, when you go home, you can get the approval of your parents, and it is best to beat your sister...... Haha, that's a bit ambitious, and I don't think it's possible. ”

Ryan tried to make his tone as relaxed as possible to hide the reluctance and loss in his eyes.

"Besides, I think too. My strength is too weak. Although I have a silver intermediate level, my own strength is really not worthy of this level. The only powerful undead is not the ...... that I have refined myself."

The four undead cores were temporarily lent to him by his parents, and then transformed by Ji Ran...... This thing really isn't his. And the others, such as the bones of the gold-level rock lizard, he didn't have the ability to use them for the time being......

"I'm going to go home first and learn the necromancer's spells all over again. I was too slack in thinking in this world. It's just my parents and my sister to be strong. It doesn't matter to me myself at all...... But now I don't think that's the case. ”

Ryan took a breath and looked at the others.

"My own weakness made me face something after that. Can only watch from the side...... Even if someone else has solved the problem. I don't feel good in my heart...... It was a sense of powerlessness. A feeling of powerlessness that made me feel uncomfortable. ”

Ryan placed his right hand on his left chest and felt his heartbeat.

"For the first time, I felt that I should be stronger...... And the road to getting stronger. It's not that easy to walk. Before I work out on my own, I feel like I should go home and make up for the basics that I didn't care about before. So, please forgive me for leaving now. ”

Ryan's words silenced everyone else. His choice was understandable, and his reasons resonated with others. No one likes that feeling of powerlessness, the feeling of facing the danger of a fellow peer or other catastrophe, and having no power to redeem it!

"We get it, Ryan. We will bless your ...... And we'll always treat you as a companion. It's normal for you to want to go home now, but when you think you're capable of being on your own, I hope you'll come back to us and have adventures with us! Rice looked at Ryan and spoke.

Ryan sighed with relief: "Of course! As long as you don't dislike me, I'll come back to you in the future! You should be living in Perth, right? It's not hard to find you there, right? ”

Of course, it's not difficult, who doesn't know the Amber Distillery in Perth City now? If you find the winery, it will not be difficult to find Ji Ran and the others...... At least be able to know their whereabouts.

Ryan was very happy to learn this, and then tried to raise the atmosphere, so that the feeling of depression in the crowd was a little lighter. Then Ji Ran proposed to hold a farewell banquet for Ryan, which was also approved by others.

That night, everyone got a lot of prey, and Ji Ran also caught a lot of fish...... He used a little bit of goldfinger, that is, he used his own dishes as bait......

At a dinner party, everyone ate and drank, and they were very happy. Ji Ran was surprised to see that not only Ryan, but also other people seemed to have let go of something and became much more cheerful.

This situation ...... It doesn't seem like a good thing...... Ji Ran suddenly had this not-so-good feeling.

Sure enough, the next morning, after Ryan left, Baker stepped up.

"I thought about it yesterday and thought I should go out and have a solo adventure."

Baker smiled, completely devoid of the decadence of the previous day.

"Although my strength is a little inferior, but I now have a relatively advanced Douqi training method, and I have the kind of circulation method given by Ji Ran, and my strength is improving a lot of time!"

Baker patted his chest.

"But if I'm with you all the time, I won't get enough opportunities to exercise. Maybe you think that by handing over to me any opponents I can deal with on the road, even the slightest danger, I can get promoted, right? This is not the case. In this way, I will always think in my heart that there is Les, Ji Ran, and other companions behind me, so I will not die......"

He shrugged his shoulders and made a helpless expression.

"Then, naturally, I don't have that sense of urgency. And I'm not a genius, I can't just train and improve by leaps and bounds...... I need to work hard, beyond the average human effort. I need to be promoted in a fight to the death...... A real fight to the death! So, I decided to leave you for now...... I won't come back until I feel like I can help in your fight. ”

The expression on Baker's face was relaxed, but his eyes were extremely serious.

"Adventurers can't always be under the protection of others...... It's time for me to go it alone. Rest assured, I won't go to the places where I'm going to die...... Venturing alone isn't suicidal, right? It's just a little sorry for Ben and Anlek, and I hope you can explain this to me. ”

He had already made up his mind, and his eyes told everyone that no one could stop him.

Rice could only let out a long sigh as he looked at Baker's expression.

"Well, Baker, I understand, it's your choice, and I'm with you. But I want you to know that no one has ever considered you a burden and that you shouldn't be standing behind us. Once there is something that can't be solved, you must come to us as much as possible, don't be reckless, you know? ”

As he spoke, Rice patted Baker on the shoulder. Baker, on the other hand, suddenly changed to the hippie smile he had before.

"Of course you do, Uncle Rice! As for me, I am the most life-sparing, others don't know, don't you know? Rest assured...... Wait, the next time I appear in front of you, it won't be me now! ”

"That's right, you're going to be a few years older." Erin burst out of nowhere, and almost made Lydia laugh on the side.

As an expert in complaining with a poisonous tongue, coupled with a expressionless face, Erin can be called a cold-faced smiler...... At some point. And her words, of course, diluted the atmosphere of parting.

Baker also left, taking Ji Ran's weapon and wearing the armor of the dwarven zuò. If nothing else, this thing is enough for Baker to defeat an opponent of his level...... Even a higher level, it's not a big problem?

As long as he didn't die on his own, safety could indeed be guaranteed. But will he die...... No one can say for sure......

"That's his own choice, we can't do anything else but expect him to beat himself." Rice looked in the direction Baker had left and let out a long sigh.

Ji Ran naturally knew this, but he was still very reluctant. But he also knew that Baker was doing the right thing -- at least for himself.

In this world, no one can become a strong man under the endless protection of others...... Even if you are physically gifted, you don't lack exercise, but mentally, you can't become so strong.

Baker took a crucial step for his own strength.

The two of them left at once, which lowered the atmosphere among the crowd again. Even if it's not a sad parting, it's still a parting......

Ji Ran had a hunch that Baker's departure was probably not the end. Maybe Alice won't leave herself, but others, he can't promise.

Especially, Irene.

After the two people left, Ji Ran had been carefully observing Erin. Although because Erin is usually expressionless, most of the time she is complaining when she speaks, and she is usually relatively silent, but her emotional fluctuations can still be seen.

Of course, if it weren't for the people who usually knew her well, I am afraid that they would not be able to see this at all. But Ji Ran could see from some of Erin's small actions that Erin seemed to be struggling in her heart and wanted to make some decisions.

Hualuo is not flying around in the sky all day long as he used to be. Hualuo was a starlight falcon - at least for now - and had a habit of flying in the sky. But now it's more of a snug on Erin's shoulder or arm, letting Erin stroke its head or comb its feathers.

Whenever Erin does this kind of thing for a long time, Ji Ran knows that she has something on her mind.

Ji Ran didn't plan to tell anyone else about this, so as not to strengthen the uneasiness in others' hearts. However, he still wanted to talk to Erin.

Therefore, at noon one day, when Erin went alone to a shade of a tree by the river to enjoy the shade, Ji Ran quietly followed.

The place was some distance from the campsite, and you couldn't see it from the campsite. Normally, Erin and Lydia would have Warlot be a sentinel and come here to swim or something...... But today, it's clear that Erin is definitely not in the mood.

From a distance, Ji Ran saw Erin take off her boots, put her snow-white feet into the clear river water, and slowly shake them. (To be continued......)
