After a night, Zhou Qingfeng woke up from his deep sleep.

He returned to the cold cavern of the Atlas. The cold wind of the Black Forest was still blowing, and he was frozen on the spot.

The bonfire inside the cave has burned out, and Todd the barbarian is pushing away the rocks blocking the cave, carefully probing for movement outside.

The gloomy sky was still thundering and lightning, the cold wind was blowing in the forest, and the terrifying aura was spontaneously born.

"It's a nice day, I don't smell the goblin stench, it should be safe outside." Todd emerged from the cave and nimbly ran around the trees, surveying his surroundings.

Zhou Qingfeng suddenly thought of something, and subconsciously jumped up to check his body.

There doesn't seem to be a difference between the top and bottom of the body.

Just a few steps after he walked, he felt that his feet were light and his pace was steady. The same breathing of the cold wind of the Black Forest is not as uncomfortable as yesterday.

Coming out of the cave, Zhou Qingfeng followed Todd, almost not leaving. The thief skills that have just been mastered are naturally used, but they are not proficient enough.

Todd suddenly stopped, turned his head to stare at Zhou Qingfeng, and asked suspiciously, "Rookie, why did you suddenly make no sound when you walked?" ”

Zhou Qingfeng was bent on his waist, subconsciously hiding in the woods, and the shadow naturally shrouded him, hazy. In response to the barbarian's doubts, he laughed and said, "I must learn how to survive, wouldn't it be better to walk lightly?" ”

Todd frowned and muttered, "I think you seem to be hiding your strength." You couldn't have been able to follow me yesterday, and your steps weren't that light.

But I advise you not to hide in the shadows at every turn. The monsters of the Black Forest prefer to hide inside and hide better than you dodge. People like you are more likely to be attacked. ”

Exercise!

Zhou Qingfeng scolded and jumped out of the shade.

Todd went back to the beach he had been on yesterday and led the way.

Zhou Qingfeng couldn't distinguish between southeast and northwest at all, and kept asking about the secret of surviving in the forest. This includes identifying directions, dodging enemies, and finding roads, water, and food.

"Where are we going?"

"Go to Stucco Village, I'm going to settle accounts with the bastard who betrayed me and make him pay."

The irascible savage waved his fists and was menacing.

Zhou Qingfeng had to remind on the side: "Todd, you just go to revenge alone?" Your enemy is afraid of more than one person, right? Are you sure this isn't going to die? ”

"What do you mean?" Todd yelled at Zhou Qingfeng, "You dare to ignore my courage? Or devalue my force? I wouldn't be afraid of hundreds of enemies. ”

Although he was employed as a 'thief', Zhou Qingfeng didn't want to recklessly follow this brainless barbarian to fight.

This big enemy is definitely not that simple, and there must be a group of subordinates around who can fight. What if Todd can't beat him? He also ran to deliver food, but he couldn't do it?

"I think you need some weapons, how many enemies can you beat with two hands empty?"

Todd had two empty hands, he was also a pauper, and he didn't have a single copper coin on his body, only a rough animal skin. This guy is probably the worst barbarian in the entire Black Forest, otherwise how could he be caught by a gang of goblins?

Speaking of weapons, Todd finally calmed down. He also understood that fighting with his bare hands must be hard, and he was afraid that before he could rush in front of his opponent, he would be shot to death by the enemy with a bow and arrow.

The inhabitants of the Black Forest are not easy to mess with. There are no rules, no laws, and if you don't agree with each other, you will draw a knife and slash and kill you. Those people in the stucco village are very fierce and unreasonable.

"Alright, let's go to the Rook Village first. I have some friends there, so maybe I'll get an axe first. Todd, the leader, changed direction and walked with Zhou Qingfeng for almost the entire day, arriving at a human settlement before dark.

The villages of the Black Forest are all heavily guarded.

The village is built on a low hillside with a wooden fence more than five meters high, filled with more than two meters of frozen sediment. A simple and functional design leads to strong defense.

Sturdy turrets were built on the walls, each with a fire burning and a powerful ballista manned man. Beneath the walls are deep trenches with sharp wooden stakes that anyone who tries to cross will pay a price.

When Todd appeared outside the village with Zhou Qingfeng, the people in the village were immediately alert. A few dozen meters away, someone was heard shouting, and the ballistas on the two arrow towers were aimed at them.

"Don't be too nervous, and don't hide. The people of Raven Village are quite talkative. Todd waved his hand in the direction of the village with a relaxed attitude, indicating that he was not hostile, "You are a stranger, and the people in the village will definitely interrogate, so you better not cause trouble." ”

The distance is closer, and it can be seen that this village is not big, and there should be only a hundred people in it.

The wooden buildings are simple and rugged, and many of the timbers are not even stripped of the bark, but are tied with rattan as thick as an arm to form the walls of the building. The structure is sturdy and almost unbreakable.

The walls of the village have no gates, only a hanging basket to enter and exit. Someone recognized the barbarian from the wall and shouted, "Todd, I heard that you have been captured by a gang of goblins." ”

"Damn, can you please stop mentioning this?" Todd scolded angrily, "Sooner or later, I'll have to go to the Plaster Village to trouble Old Hughes and make him regret betraying me." Now can you let me in, we've brought you a friend. ”

The people on the wall had already seen Zhou Qingfeng, so they asked, "Where did this kid come from?" ”

"His name is Victor, and I can't tell where he came from. But he saved me. Otherwise, I'd have been thrown into the pot by those green-skinned guys to stew mature meat by now. Todd patted Zhou Qingfeng on the shoulder, which was considered to be a guarantee for him.

The people in the village put down the hanging basket and pulled Todd and Zhou Qingfeng up.

Behind the fortified walls was a military fortress, all dressed in leather armor and armed with weapons such as knives and axes. Even the women are stout and have a brute force – and of course, they are ugly.

The villagers are not friendly, their eyes are wary and fierce, and they are scrutinizing and provocative to outsiders.

Todd admonished, "It's too dangerous in the Black Forest, and betrayals and sneak attacks happen all the time. There is little trust in unfamiliar faces.

None of the villages here like to receive visitors, except for caravans that bring supplies.

For strangers, no matter how pitiful you are, you will be driven away. If you hadn't saved me, I wouldn't have bothered you, let alone brought you to the village. ”

There is no shortage of wood in the Black Forest, and many bonfires are lit in the village. The flickering firelight emitted heat, and Zhou Qingfeng felt a lot warmer after he came in, which also made him feel a lot more at ease. At least he didn't have to spend the night in a cave in the wilderness.

Todd takes Zhou Qingfeng to find the leader of the village, a forest keeper named Lukans. It was he who built the wooden village of the White Crow Village and recruited a group of outlaws to come to this dangerous place and make a fortune by transporting and selling the products of the Black Forest.

When Zhou Qingfeng saw this vicious forest keeper, the other party was whipping a man who was hanged up.

In the splash of blood, the skin of the person who was beaten was opened, and the body was twisted. But he did not beg for mercy, but only let out a heart-rending roar, "Only obey Bane, and my lord will destroy you!" ”

So the forester continued to pump with greater force.

Todd took a few steps forward and shouted enthusiastically, "Lukans, what makes you so angry?" ”

The forest keeper Lukans was bald, narrow-eyed, tall, thin, and had a fierce face. He has a pale face that looks unusually cold in cold weather.

Hearing someone shouting, the guy looked back at Todd and scolded angrily, "Angry? Am I more than angry? I'm scared right now. ”

"Fear ......, why?"

"Because the evil god has risen!"
