"Noro, look at that woods......" Mu Qi, who was riding on the cunning, pointed ahead and turned back in surprise.

Hearing this, Noro drove the beast to catch up quickly, and looked in the direction pointed by Muki, also surprised.

"What's going on?" and Kairas and Rod followed curiously.

"Sultis, if you don't hurry up, you'll be left behind. Gary looked back and urged.

Seeing that everyone was chasing after him, Tis couldn't help but get anxious. To be honest, it's remarkable that he's able to sit firmly on Lin Cunning now without falling, and it's hard to control if he's too fast. The cavalry of the Eastern Continent generally uses the cunning as a riding beast, although its size is not as tall and strong as the hunting beast of the Sava people, but it is not small, its limbs are slender and agile, and its running speed is no less than that of the hunting beast, and it is not easy to control the fierce cunning. Although there were occasional traces of wild cunning on the Ferdorus Peninsula, since Fodorus had no regular army and had never trained cavalry, he had not had the opportunity to ride Lincunn before going to Nuland. After accompanying the army to Sambiland this time, he will follow him to the Devil's Forest, and if he can't ride Lin Cunning, it will affect the speed of the others. So, Sultius had to take advantage of the journey from Nuland to Sambiland and start learning slowly along the way. Fortunately, when he arrived at Isai City in Sambiland, he was finally able to barely balance his body and not fall off Lin Cunning easily.

After leaving the army in Isai City and handing it over to the generals there for regrouping and training, the few of them continued north to the Devil's Forest as originally planned. Along the way, he was behind the others, barely falling too far, but now that he suddenly picked up, he would inevitably be caught off guard. His body couldn't keep up with the tough and dense undulating rhythm of Lin Cun's rapid gallop, and in just a short distance, he felt that his internal organs were about to be shattered. His face was pale all the time, for fear that he would fall, and he would hold the reins tightly, and his head would be blank, and he was already frightened, and he didn't know how to catch up.

"Is there anything wrong with the forest?" asked Kailas, puzzled. Although it was still a little far away, it seemed to him that it was an ordinary forest, and there was nothing peculiar about it.

Mu Qi looked back and smiled, "If I told you that at the beginning of the year, the trees on the western edge of the forest were actually only a man tall, would you still be so calm?"

"Are you kidding? I guess I've had at least thirty or forty years of growth. Keiras said incredulously. Although there is still some distance from the Devil's Forest, it is not difficult to deduce the approximate growth of the trees based on past experience and observations of the surrounding environment.

"There's something unusual about that forest. Rod was also a little puzzled. In fact, at the beginning of the year, he had followed Noro and Muki here, although he did not run to the edge of the battlefield to watch the battle, as they did, but stayed in the camp a little further away from the battlefield. But on the morning of the second day after the war, he also watched from afar the grove that suddenly rose overnight, and his surprise at that time is still fresh in his memory.

"Well, it seems to have expanded quite a bit......," said Noro, looking ahead, thoughtfully, "It would be okay if we only expanded south into the territory of Sambiland, we also happen to lack woods, but the west and north are now the territory of Herilandi......"

"Herilandy is mining on a mining spree, and has recently built a number of weapon foundries, apparently in preparation for war, and most of the original invasion of Naborland was for the sake of the mines. If the Devil's Forest has indeed expanded into the territory of Herilandi, then the inhabitants of the forest will not be able to escape the involvement of war in the future. ”

"Naturally, Herilandi will not tolerate the emergence of another independent regime within his territory, and it is only a matter of time before the inhabitants of the forest are affected by the war, unless Herilandi is completely defeated in the future war between the North and the South. Noro said.

"That's right," said Kailas, "did you intend to persuade them to form an alliance by choosing this time to go to the Devil's Forest at this time?"

"It's true, but it's hard to say at the moment......," Noro said. After all, he hadn't learned the truth about the Devil's Forest, and he didn't know anything about the character and background of the leader in the forest, so it was better to be cautious.

"Anyway, it's always a good idea to find out first. Murch smiled optimistically, "Actually, I can't wait to meet them." ”

"Why?" said Kairas, wondering.

"Hmph, he's just a trick. Noro snorted lightly, and then drove the beast to the Devil's Forest first.

"Haha...... Sure enough, you know me best. Murch laughed and chased after him.

Kailas also hurriedly followed Murkey and asked, "Did anything interesting happen when you went to the Devil's Forest to watch the battle last time?" ”

"Well, sort of, I met someone who made me want to fight him. Murch laughed.

"Yes, it's really rare that there are people other than Lord Jingler who can provoke your fighting spirit and make you unforgettable. Kaylas couldn't help but be curious about the man Muki was talking about.

With the gradual expansion of the forest area, the Jianing people have added many lookouts on the periphery of the forest. The lookouts set on the towering trees are hidden among the lush foliage and are not easy to find. The purpose of the lookout is not only to strengthen the perimeter of the forest, but also to guide those who have fled from afar and want to enter the forest. Because the outer periphery of the Devil's Forest is usually covered in thick fog, people who are not familiar with it will not be able to enter Jianing City smoothly at all, and almost all of them will lose their way in the depths of the forest.

It was precisely because of those dense white fogs that it was difficult for even the riding beasts to gallop in the forest, so when Noro and the other six came to the edge of the forest, they had to come down early and walk instead.

Just as they were about to walk slowly into the jungle, they suddenly heard a "whoosh-" sound, and a sharp arrow broke through the wind and stuck firmly on the ground in front of them, stopping them in their tracks as if warning.

The sudden sharp arrow obviously surprised everyone. They hadn't noticed any suspicious movement in the vicinity before, so they had a preconceived idea that the defenders on the outskirts of the forest were just white mist that couldn't be dissolved, and they didn't expect that there were still people.

Except for Rhodes and Sultis, the other four had already taken a few steps back keenly with the sound of the wind before the sharp arrow hit the ground, and they all raised their heads to look in the direction where the sharp arrow was fired.

After careful inspection, it was discovered that on the towering trunk of a huge tree not far away, there was a small treehouse in the shape of a ring. The sharp arrow that was stuck in the ground came down from the treehouse above.

Almost at the same time, the man on the treehouse poked his head out and shouted condescendingly, "Who is coming? ”

Normally, the watchman at the lookout will not ask for the identity of the visitor in this way, and will rarely shoot an arrow to warn him first. Because, almost all of the fugitives who were able to get here were ragged or haggard and panicked. When approaching the forest, most of them will unconsciously look back frequently to make sure that there are any soldiers chasing after them. As a result, an experienced watchman can usually easily deduce the identity of the person without interrogation.

However, at the moment, those people are clearly different. They are good-looking, energetic, neatly dressed, and carry weapons with them, and they use their fierce cunning as riding beasts, and at first glance they are either rich or expensive, and they do not need to think about it to know that they are not fugitives. The most important thing is that if a person like him who knows that he is in an extraordinary position at a glance is still appearing on the edge of the Devil's Forest for the first time, the watchman on the lookout will naturally be doubly vigilant.

It is not so surprising that after the arrow has been fired, it is not so surprising that it is again subjected to such vigilant interrogation. Noro replied loudly, "We are messengers from Nuland, who intend to visit the leader of this forest country. ”

"Nuland's emissary, would you like to visit the chief?" the watchman who shouted from the lookout glanced at his companion in confusion.

The companion thought for a moment and said, "There are only six of them, it doesn't look like they're here to ask for trouble, it should be the truth, right?"

"But why do Nuland's emissaries want to see our chief, Nuland, the superpower of the South, who has recently annexed Dorodo and Sambiland. Is it because the forest has expanded to the border of Sambiland, posing a threat to them, and they have come to warn them?" said the watchman who shouted earlier, with some uneasiness, but the expansion of the forest was beyond their control.

"Don't speculate, it's impossible to determine what their purpose is. The companion was evidently much calmer, and added, "Anyway, you stay here and continue to observe, and I will bring the news back to the city at once, and see what instructions the lord has." ”

"It's fine. The former watchman bowed his head and poked his head out of the guardrail of the lookout, and shouted to the people below, "Stay where you are and wait, and we will bring the news of the messenger's visit back to the city." However, it will be known later whether the leader will allow you to enter the forest. ”

So, the six of them had to stay at the edge of the forest and wait for news.

Titan breathed a sigh of relief, but his legs were already shaking with pain, and he didn't have the strength to move on. The scales on Lin Qian's body are very hard, even if a specific saddle is placed to effectively block the friction between the legs and the scales, but if you are not used to riding, it is extremely difficult to adapt in a short time. In addition, they have been walking a lot lately, especially last night, since they started their journey at the end of the moon, so they did not get enough sleep. For people who have long been accustomed to the life of the march, it is natural that it will not be too hard, but it is still difficult for Tis to adapt, and his body is really a little unbearable.

Looking up at the sky, it was not long before the sun had risen, and the last moon was still hanging in the clear blue sky, and it was still a long time before noon. Sitting on the ground, Titis couldn't help but secretly rejoice: fortunately he could rest for a while, otherwise his legs would be broken......
