Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Forest of Ragon

The team always saw the shadows of those monsters on the rest of the way, and they kept an eye on the convoy from a long distance, sneakily following behind.

Every time Lin Yiyi wanted to take out a bow and arrow to shoot, they scattered as birds and beasts, and disappeared again in a moment.

"There's something wrong, like being watched." Mu Lan frowned.

"Just a few demon wolves." Julian said, "It's common to walk in the wilderness, and if we were outnumbered, the wolves would attack tentatively, and now that we're outnumbered, they're on guard from a distance. ”

Mu Lan was noncommittal, she didn't admit that she was a soldier, and she didn't want to miss any detail in the atmosphere of the upcoming battle of the three regiments.

They made their way through the vast wasteland, and the further north they went, the more inaccessible they became, and on the fourth day they passed through a deserted village.

The forest in the distance is already faintly visible, and it is a green skyline, but the lookout mountain looks close but it is estimated that it will take two days to reach it.

The village is much more shabby than the Wheat Field Village, with thatched houses made of logs and looking dilapidated.

The team of carriages and horses was about to take a break here, and as soon as they stopped, Mu Lan heard a rapid scream.

Lin Yiyi instantly pulled out the arrow behind him, and several people were nervous, and the captain of the guard named Sacco immediately pulled out his long sword to protect Yulian.

"What's wrong?"

When everyone arrived, they saw Xu Lei pointing to a rotting corpse on the ground, covering her mouth, and her face turned pale.

In this humble farmhouse, a corpse covered in maggots, decomposing and emitting a foul smell lay on the ground, and the stench spread far away, and everyone covered their noses.

"Isn't it just a dead man, what's all the fuss." Lin Yiyi suddenly lost interest.

Mu Lan saw the bow arm hanging on the wall, and then looked at other furnishings such as animal skins, and said, "It should be a hunter's home." ”

"If something like that happens, do you dare to live outside the ragon forest?" Zhao Ziyu wondered.

Julian frowned, he walked over to the corpse, and then suddenly crouched down.

The guard, named Sacco, was shocked, and he immediately stepped forward to help Julian up.

"It's so dirty here, you let me come......"

"No problem!" Julian shook his head, and with his saber he picked open the fabric covering the corpse, and began to observe.

Seeing this, Mu Lan also covered her nose and squatted down, she found that the corpse was very new, as if she had just died not long ago, Julian seemed to have found something, he pointed to the wound on the corpse and said, "It should have died from a sharp weapon, he was killed by humans." ”

Maggots crawling on the corpses, coupled with the room full of flies and stench, Xu Lei wanted to vomit out, covered her nose and rushed outside.

"It's disgusting."

Except for this corpse, there was no one else in the village, everyone let down their vigilance, and they were about to set off again after a few hours of repair, but the atmosphere was a little silent, and Mu Lan saw that Julian's face was obviously a little worried.

On the sixth day, the group finally reached the outskirts of the Ragon Forest, a vast primeval forest that was said to have been the territory of the elves a few epochs ago, but is now inhabited by all kinds of demonic beasts.

The trees of the Lagong Forest are tall and lush, some of them are more than 100 meters high, and the trunks of the trees need twenty people to hold, and as soon as you enter this forest, the sky is completely covered, and the environment becomes dark.

"It's kind of like the rainforests of the Americas." Lin Yiyi took a deep breath of the fresh scent of grass and trees, and then said.

"But it's not as humid and hot." Zhao Ziyu split the rattan blocking the way with a knife, observed the surrounding environment and said: "This place should be similar to the temperate zone of our world, because further north is tundra permafrost and frozen northern mountains. ”

Mu Lan looked at Julian, who had tied up the horses, and asked, "Can your convoy pass?" The Ragon Forest is too dense to pass through the vehicle. ”

Julian smiled, as if he didn't care about his goods, and said, "We walked along the perimeter of the forest, and we found an ancient road built by the Kingdom of Norswar a hundred years ago, which runs through the entire Lagon forest, and is convenient for vehicles and people to walk. ”

An ancient road built 100 years ago! And throughout the entire Lagon Forest, Mu Lan was a little surprised, the area of the Lagon Forest is too large, larger than many countries on this continent, I didn't expect that the national strength of Noswar a hundred years ago was so strong, and infrastructure of this scale could be built.

Julian did not miss the surprise in Mu Lan's eyes, his eyes seemed to be full of enthusiasm, and he said proudly: "In the past, Noswar was only one step away from the unified continent, and this ancient road was built to quickly send soldiers and materials to the north, so as to facilitate the control of the northern territories, Claudius the Great was majestic and strategic, and all peoples were subjugated under his conquest under the iron hooves of the kingdom......"

"It's a pity that ......," Julian said, and the fire in his eyes gradually dimmed, "The emperor himself died young, and his descendants only cared about fighting for power, and the empire was divided into kingdoms, and gradually became what it is now......"

"Northval's control over the realms is also weakening." Mu Lan continued his words and said, "The whole kingdom is in a state of disintegration, right......"

Julian was silent, he nodded imperceptibly, and acquiesced to Mu Lan's statement.

Mu Lan saw Julian's obviously depressed expression and didn't ask any more questions, the atmosphere became silent, and the team continued to search for the lost ancient path along the outskirts of the forest.

"Huh?" At this time, Lin Yiyi made a sound in surprise, and then she picked up the trees and vines that were in her eyes, ran to the place not far in front and squatted down.

"What's wrong?" Shi Zhengyang was puzzled, seeing that Lin Yiyi was waving to everyone, he also walked quickly to that place.

Beneath the branches of the vines were several corpses, mutilated by some kind of animal, and could only be judged from the skeletons to be human.

There were some weapons scattered on the soil, with long swords and shields, Lin Yiyi instantly felt a little familiar, and said with a sigh: "It's the mercenary group a few days ago!" ”

Mu Lan observed for a moment and checked the number of corpses, there were eight of them, which coincided with the number of mercenary groups.

"They were killed by a monster?" After Zhao Ziyu finished speaking, he looked around vigilantly.

Lin Yiyi also took off the bow and arrow behind his back, Shi Zhengyang checked it in front of the corpse, and affirmed: "It should be a demonic beast, and it is a large number of demonic beasts, because the wounds of the teeth are of different sizes, and if it were not for a large number of demonic beasts, this mercenary group would not be wiped out." ”

Mu Lan instantly thought of the Warcraft tide at the beginning of entering the dungeon, and felt that the situation was not good, it was in the human village at that time, and there were many villagers forming a formation to resist, and now they are almost deep into the base camp where the Warcraft inhabit, and the number of people is not large, if they encounter a Warcraft tide of the same scale, it will be difficult to do.

Suddenly there was a sound of rustling in the forest, everyone was on alert, and Shi Zhengyang hurriedly shouted: "Let's go out of the forest, this is their home field!" ”

White points of light of different sizes appeared in Mu Lan's spell detection, and a large number of demonic beasts were approaching in the depths of the forest, and she hurriedly shared these points of light with the other three people with a psychic link.

With the roar of a demonic beast, several silver-white demonic wolves sprang out of the jungle in the distance, and they quickly rushed over the branches and vines of the trees, and quickly rushed towards everyone.

"Let's get back to where the horses and cargo were kept!" Julian's face changed, and he hurriedly commanded the guards beside him.

Lin Yiyi's explosive arrows shot at those demon wolves, killing a circle of demon wolves instantly, but there was still a steady stream of white figures rushing out from the depths of the forest.

It's not just the silver-white wolf that's in the WoW wave, but also the old friend Black Panther and some smaller felines.

"Demon wolf! Swift Shadow Leopard! And forest ferrets! Julian exclaimed, "How could these demonic beasts unite and act together? They are all monsters that compete with each other! ”

"Don't think about it so much!" Mu Lan turned around and said, "Get out of here first!" ”

The monsters rushed out of the forest in a steady stream, and an agile demon wolf jumped on the trunk of the tree, and it roared and pounced on everyone.

"Ahh Xu Leihua's face was pale, and she screamed in fright.

Shi Zhengyang immediately swung his fist away, and the internal force sent the demon wolf several meters away in mid-air.

Xu Lei and Zhang Hongzhuo were originally at the back of the team, but after changing directions, they became the leaders, and the two of them saw that the demonic beasts kept coming out of the jungle in the rear, and they were so frightened that they ran out of the forest without looking back.
