11 Let them go

Similar to what the Elven Queen had perceived, Charles was not in the vast forest.

After turning around and leaving in a hurry that day, it wasn't long before he found himself lost in the woods.

This kind of getting lost is not the kind of getting lost under normal circumstances, and the charr does not have the so-called road idiot attribute.

In fact, by staring at the ground all the time at high altitude, Charles had already memorized the approximate route out of the forest.

Under normal circumstances, he would have been able to find the right path. That's why he didn't want to deal with the strange elves in this area-

Being wary and wary of strangers is one thing, and on the other hand, it is not necessary at all.

Strangely, however, he was lost.

He found a unique position in the dense forest. It constantly influences his sense of direction and the way forward.

Under this supernormal influence, it goes from day to night, and from night to day. The already immature little feet were worn out by the boots, not to mention, and the stomach was growling with hunger.

Elf babies need to drink milk for the first two months after birth, but after that they can eat something less hard because their teeth grow quickly.

However, in this forest, even if there are various wild fruits and abundant materials, Charles does not dare to eat them directly, because he does not know if these normal-looking things are poisonous or not.

As for hunting and then eating meat, it was easy for him, but there was one obvious obstacle to this—there was no fire.

He didn't think that he could drill into wood with his own small hands to make a fire, and it was obviously impossible to endure the nausea and eat raw meat.

So, with the torture of hunger, Charles felt for the first time that simple survival would be so difficult.

Luckily, however, on the fourth day of landing, he left the forest and appeared on the edge of an open field.

As far as the eye can see, the landscape is uneven, with lush green grass everywhere, occasionally dotted with three or two colorful, unnamed wildflowers.

The breeze in the field is relaxing, and there is a dirt road with no grass in the direction of the sight.

It wasn't the original route he remembered, so everything around him was unfamiliar, but he was still excited about it.

What's even more exciting is that at noon that day, Charles met a group of humans sleeping in the open.

That's right, humans, humans with normal ears.

A group of poorly dressed people sat around three campfires, on which hung crudely made, boiling hanging pots.

At a cursory glance, there are about 20 people.

They are very different from the elves' beautiful appearances, either with a big beard or messy hair, and their appearance is extremely sloppy.

At the same time, they were also dressed in the usual animal skin clothing, and there were piles of parcels piled up next to and around them, which made Charles subconsciously guess that these people might be a human caravan.

At the same time, the human "caravan" also discovered Charles, a scruffy little fellow.

A gray-haired old man quickly ran over with two women, then squatted down and looked at Charles kindly and suspiciously: "@#¥!" @”

The slightly excited Charles was a little dumbfounded by the unfamiliar words, and there was no feedback on the special talent that was not working at that time.

However, out of luck in his heart, he still looked up at the three guys and asked, "Excuse me, do you know where the direction of the South Elmos Forest is?" ”

The only thing Charles has a clear impression of being in this strange world is the name, which is the place where he was born and survived for more than two months. The others don't say they know nothing, but they also know nothing.

However, it is a pity that the other party did not understand his words at all.

They looked at each other, muttered a few words to each other, and said a few more words to Charles, but still to no avail.

Although it may be a certain insult, at this moment, Charles really has the feeling of talking to the ancient savages.

"Looks like I'm on my own."

With a sigh, he nodded to the three kind-looking humans in gratitude, and then was about to turn his head to leave, but a pair of arms suddenly stretched out from under his armpits and hugged him directly!

Charles subconsciously wanted to make a move, but his mind flashed the attitude of the three of them, and he endured it again, and turned to look at the human woman who was holding him, wondering what this guy was going to do.

So under Charles's stunned expression, the human woman who picked him up lifted the corner of her clothes and pushed the back of Charles's head directly.

The soft touch made him a little confused.

……

For the Haradin group, it was a rare thing to come across a baby in such an inaccessible place.

They had come to this area to buy some necessities for Estorade (the place where the Middle-earth people were currently the main gathering place), but they came across this very beautiful little baby on the way back.

Because elven babies are basically no different from human children before the age of three, these people directly regard the charr as a human child, and because the Haradin people know very little about elves, they don't take the elven language in the mouth of the charr seriously.

After some fruitless communication, believing that he must be hungry (which they guessed correctly), one of the women picked up Charles without saying a word.

There was some shame, even resistance, but after a while Charles stopped - he was not only hungry, but also thirsty.

And then he didn't resist anything for the time being.

The group then continued to camp in the area, and then waited for the road to begin early tomorrow morning.

As for the existence of Charles, after a brief discussion, they made a decision - to bring them back and raise them as sons to the middle-aged widow who was holding Charles.

In fact, it wasn't far from the Terran settlement, and they should have brought the Charr there under normal circumstances.

Because he is most likely to be a baby of the two Terrans of Beo or Hado, who have been abandoned in the wilderness (there are currently three Terrans in Middle-earth, Beo, Hado, and Haradin).

It's just that who called the Haradin people is relatively thin, and the Charr is so "beautiful" that people like it at a glance.

Obviously, the human race, which has been born for more than 300 years from scratch, has no reason at present, especially the Haradin who migrated from the last of the three major human races.

They have been in this area for less than a decade, and they have had little contact with civilization (mainly the elves), and they don't know what to do.

Charles observed this clearly, he was full of food and drink, and he originally wanted to leave secretly, but after thinking about everything during this time, he suddenly hesitated.

Go to Arityl and then what?

Just treat her or them as parents?

Charles was grateful to the two elves who had given him a new life and had saved him, but not to the point of treating them as relatives.

In fact, he was betrayed by his "relatives" not long ago, and his heart was full of resistance to this.

It's just that he was unfamiliar with life in the past, and he was really not suitable for tossing around.

But now that he's done running around and tossing around, does he need to go back to being a good baby?

"Maybe it's better for them to think I'm dead?" The thought crossed his mind.

Maybe it would be more appropriate to wait until I am an adult and have the ability to move normally and then go back and repay silently?

Instead of going back now and engaging with them more deeply?

After all, it's still a short time, and if you just break off the relationship like this, it will obviously be more appropriate than when it's been a long time in the future......

He thought it was a good choice, but Charles hesitated.

He couldn't tell what he was hesitating about, but he just couldn't give up.

It's just that after struggling for a long time, Charles suddenly thought about it, even if he didn't choose to leave, but went to find her or them, he would be able to find it......

Glancing around in the arms of the human woman, the vast expanse of green earth filled Charles with a sense of confusion and strangeness.

He didn't know how far away he had memorized the route, and he had no idea what was going on around him.

Except for the southeast, northwest, and northwest.

The knot in his heart was reluctantly untied for the time being, and Charles no longer thought about it, but prepared to follow the group of humans to their station first.

Whether he stays there or leaves, looking for another place to live, is another question - he has some ability to survive, but many things must also depend on others.

For example, tools for making fires, such as cooking ingredients, etc.

After a night of silence, the Terrans began to pack up the camp and set out on their way.

……

Silently led by a group of humans to the unknown east, the sun rises and sets, the distance is very far away.

But in this collective, he didn't have to worry about eating and drinking.

The humans around him are very kind to him.

It was the human woman who held him who looked at Charles with a loving gaze that made him shudder—an apparent replica of Arityr.

So Charles secretly decided to wait until he was stable and run away from the guy.

finally made up his mind, he didn't want to be bound by feelings anymore.

……

Time passed, day after day, and the people of the Haradin crossed vast plains, crossed rushing rivers, walked through barren lands, and rocky and messy valleys.

Finally, after crossing a vast river, the destination of the group finally appeared in sight-

At the foot of the vast blue mountains, a green hilly area called Shagherion.
