Chapter 030 Emerald Forest
It has been half a day since entering the Emerald Forest, and the strange stones and forests along the road make them marvel from time to time, this is close to the northern highlands, it may be the relationship of the regional environment, everything here is unusually tall, and the dwarf shrubs in the south can no longer be seen.
Lance motioned for everyone to put things in order, and Jack went to investigate the surroundings.
"This should be the critical line of the Emerald Forest, and it is a dangerous area before moving forward, and I have inquired about the situation here before I came, and I have also made a simple map. Lance spread out the map on the ground, and then said, "The Emerald Forest is actually the territory of orc warmongers, they are slaughtered, among which the centaur marauders (yellow rank intermediate) are the most cruel, they will cut off the heads of their prey and skin them as trophies, if we encounter orcs, it is best to evacuate immediately to avoid conflict with them, and now hunt some dire wolves and war bears on the periphery." Do you agree?" Lance and the other men all looked at Ella and Lina, and they both nodded in agreement.
After all, everyone came out to improve their abilities, but they are not outlaws, and everyone who shouldn't touch them won't mess with them.
Dire wolves belong to the lowest level of the Emerald Forest food chain, and are extremely dangerous bloodthirsty creatures, although they are not magical beasts but ordinary beasts, they always fight in groups, and they will also use their abilities intelligently. This ability is to call for support, as long as one of the dire wolves in a pack is attacking and the others are nearby, they will rush to attack the same target, and, before attacking, they will let out a terrible howl, summoning their companions from afar to fight together. So when fighting dire wolves, keep in mind that there will be more wolves to help.
But fortunately, their individual strength is very average, the only thing is that the howl summoning support and collective hunting ability are very terrifying, so they must be eliminated in the first wave or two attacks, otherwise they will wait to be beaten.
Lance decided to try the dire wolf first, Jack detected a wolf pack not far ahead, they were eating an elk, this was a great opportunity, the team quietly approached, now their team has adapted a lot after the previous battle, outflanking and rounding, magic assistance, trap hunting and killing are all in place, but those dire wolves are still enjoying the last supper without knowing it.
The six dire wolves were now lambs to the slaughter in their eyes, and they were easily harvested to obtain six wolf skins. Dire wolf is not a monster and does not have a crystal nucleus, but its fur is very popular with those noble ladies, wearing dire wolf fur to attend a banquet is a very face-saving thing, a complete and traceless dire wolf skin in the market can be sold for a high price of one gold coin.
"Yes, you can easily get six wolf skins in the first battle, haha. Jack exclaimed excitedly.
Although they are all aristocrats, they don't spend their parents' money like other nobles, but earn their own living expenses, Lance and the others have their own material store, and Lina is the major shareholder in it, which is considered a big boss, but she usually doesn't go to the store, and the loot this time will only be distributed to Ella and Tudu after the material store is sold.
And at this moment, not far from them, a group of dire wolves and eight centaur marauders were besieging five humans in the middle, four to be exact, because one of them had fallen in a pool of blood, and the three parties now seemed to be in a delicate balance.
Among the four, there was a female magician, who could not hide her gorgeous appearance under such a frightened, and the other three knights hid her behind her, and she was none other than Su Ya's classmate Luo Liya.
Their team was composed of four yellow-level intermediate knights and blue-level peak water magician Luo Liya, all four knights were the sons of Luo Liya's father, and they took the initiative to invite her to join the team in order to convince Luo Liya.
At the beginning of the experience, it was relatively stable, and the blue-level area did not pose any threat to the four knights, but Luo Liya felt that this kind of experience was not interesting, and she decided to go to the Emerald Forest to have a look at it, of course the four knights did not dare to say no words, but for the sake of safety, they finally decided to find some dire wolves or something to practice on the periphery of the Emerald Forest to make the eldest lady happy.
Unexpectedly, they were really unlucky, they encountered a large group of dire wolves, and when they were about to eliminate this group of guys, eight centaur predators suddenly appeared, they came to hunt and eat dire wolves, but they accidentally found these human delicacies.
Already exhausted, they could withstand the fierce attacks of the centaur marauders, and after several waves of fighting, one knight fell, and the magic exhausted Loria could only watch her companion fall and was powerless to save, which made her young heart suffer a lot of blows, if it weren't for the three knights who forced her in the middle, she might have fallen long ago.
Han Yuliang has been maintaining earth perception on the road to ensure that the prey can change its position at any time, but this time he found that those lifeforms are slowly disappearing, which means that they are dying, could it be that other teams are hunting.
Han Yuliang knew that it was now the hunting period of the academy, and it was normal to encounter a hunting team in the Emerald Forest, but since he had already found these prey, there was no reason not to go and see them, so he sped up his pace when he thought of this.
When Han Yuliang arrived, a few familiar faces appeared, Ella, Tudu, it's so good to finally see them again, huh, Luo Liya is also there, and the others should be their teammates.
Just when Han Yuliang was wondering, the man standing in front of Luo Liya also began to stagger, and the scars all over his body had cut off the former handsome man.
The eight centaur marauders split into two groups, one to clean up the dire wolves, the other to clean up a few humans, there was no suspense on the dire wolf's side, and under the sturdy armor and sharp blades, these ferocious carnivores turned into lambs to the slaughter. And on the human side, it was useless to resist with all the strength of the knights, several knights around Loria paid the price of their lives in exchange for two centaur marauders, and the Lance team that arrived later could barely resist the other two centaur marauders due to the great difference in strength, but if the four finished the dire wolf and joined the battle, there would be only one way to die.
"Come and save us!" When Luo Liya saw Han Yuliang, she definitely didn't recognize that this was her friend Su Ya, and she cried desperately as if she was grasping a life-saving straw.
Seeing a fellow human being in such a desperate situation will give people a great desire to survive, even if there is a flood beast in front of them.
Just as Loria was calling for help, the shaky man took advantage of the two centaur marauders in front of him to distract, and with all his strength, he stabbed the long sword in his hand into the chest of one of the centaur marauders, and motioned for Loria to run. In a panic, she didn't run far before she heard a miserable voice behind her, and continued to run while wiping away her tears, she didn't look back, this was a sign of maturity, and turning back only made her weaker.
But it was deadly to show her back in front of a centaur marauder, as an arrow was fired at her waistcoat.
