Chapter 82: A New Member of the Spirit
After the team entered the mid-level Warcraft area, Andles adjusted the personnel formation, Zhang Xiaojuan was the key protection object, she sat in the middle of the riding beast, the left and right sides were Xiaomaoqiu and Carlos, Hal and Maloro guarded the rear, and Andles and Jason led the way in front.
Zhang Xiaojuan looked at the surrounding scenery curiously, and his intuition became more and more eerie the further he went, the more eerie the forest became, from time to time there were huge forest skeletons hidden among the trees, and there were fallen dead trees blocking the way, and the damp and cold ground was full of pits and bumps, covered by rotten dead leaves and slippery moss, and if you were not careful, you would sink your feet into it.
Andrés and the others slowed down their progress, and even with the guidance of the map, they took a lot of detours.
At this time, Andrés, who was walking in front, raised his hand again to signal the team to stop, Zhang Xiaojuan was petite, and the height of her sitting on the riding beast was still not as high as that of several tall adult men, and she had to tilt her body to look from the side.
Another fallen dead tree blocked the way, and the dead tree was wrapped around the dense and multiplying vines, and as the fallen vines of the big tree also lost their support and fell to the ground, but they were not discouraged, and the branches began to wind towards another large tree next to them. It is this soft, non-aggressive plant that withers and dies by winding the soft and hard fingers around one tall tree after another. Survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest, this is the rule of the jungle, Warcraft is applicable, and so are plants.
The familiar orange-red sword light flashed, Andles swung his sword and slashed at the dead tree, the dry trunk connected to the vine was cut into several sections, Jason cooperated to lift the dead tree away, revealing a rotting monster corpse, the disgusting stench mixed with the unique damp smell of the forest made people smell sick.
Carlos threw a fireball, the rotting beast was wiped out, and the obstacles in the way were quickly cleared.
Andrés put away the Dark Sword and directed the team onwards, and as the ranks progressed, such episodes became more frequent.
Zhang Xiaojuan was thinking about herbs, and from the moment he entered the mid-level demonic beast area, he was as excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and his black grape-like eyes were scanning the jungle along the way at any time, and she was looking for medicinal herbs. Although she didn't know many herbs, she had the same skill as Kaihang, that is, she could see the luminous light emitted by the spirit-level herbs, perhaps because of the habits developed in the wasteland, Zhang Xiaojuan's eyes only had those spirit-level herbs with strong luminescence, and the more luminous the light, the more she liked it.
Spirit-level herbs are valuable! This is picking up money! As long as she finds a glittering plant, whether it is rare or not, she will collect them all.
Never get tired of it!
Of course, the money was not picked up casually, she only found a dozen or so spirit-level herbs along the way, and the others were ordinary herbs with a faint luster, and she would not delay her trip for these herbs.
For some reason, the herbs collected by Zhang Xiaojuan, Andrés asked him to manage them in a unified manner, thinking that he would have to rely on him to take them to the Cabre Auction House for auction in the future, Zhang Xiaojuan followed his advice.
"Uncle Andres, is there a problem with the herbs I picked?" Zhang Xiaojuan couldn't help but wonder when he saw that Andrés would put every herb she picked to the tip of her nose and sniff deeply.
"No problem. Andrés put the herbs back into the bag with a natural expression, "It's purely personal habit!"
Zhang Xiaojuan remembered that many medicinal herbs had similar stand-in herbs, and thought that Andrés was kind enough to help her check, but then he remembered his strange hobby of liking medicinal scented women, and he always felt weird.
Andrés said suddenly, "I noticed that the herbs you picked seemed to taste stronger. When he spoke, his eyes looked straight at Zhang Xiaojuan, and his ice-blue eyes made it impossible to understand the thoughts under his eyes.
Zhang Xiaojuan calmly explained: "The aura in the Kokolic Forest is very abundant, and the herbs absorb more aura and of course the taste is stronger. ”
Andrés nodded slightly, "I like to smell this strong herb smell." ”
Jason on the side said proudly: "Young Master Andrés is the senior herb appraiser of our Carraray Auction House, and he only needs to smell it lightly to identify the grade of the herb. ”
Zhang Xiaojuan didn't think it was an exaggeration to add a few more halos to this humanoid herb encyclopedia, and after a few days of study, she was still very convinced of Andrés's profound knowledge.
Andles was unfazed by Jason's words and continued to lead the way in front.
The Warcraft in the mid-level Warcraft area are different from the low-level Warcraft area, they are stronger and are not afraid of humans. Some Warcraft will choose to stay away when they smell the danger signals deliberately released by the human team, and the vast majority of Warcraft are bloodthirsty and brutal and have no fear of humans. To deal with this kind of middle-level demonic beast, Andles and the others didn't say a word, and directly besieged them.
Although the battle situation was one-sided, it was also tiring to have more times, and when camping at night, Zhang Xiaojuan saw fatigue on their faces. She asked Little Furball to catch a few fragrant porpoise beasts to improve the diet, and Little Furball did as she was told, Zhang Xiaojuan was very pleased, and felt that Little Furball was well-behaved and low-key during this trip to the forest, and he didn't participate in anything else except for guarding her tightly every day.
Several men were tired and hungry, and with the delicious Dolphin Beast to improve their food, plus a large demonic beast hunted along the way, Andles arranged for a group of two to take turns and be on duty.
Hunting demonic beasts too often in the past few days, although the loss of spiritual energy in the elixir is not large, but the level of demonic beasts in the later stage will become higher and more difficult, and it is necessary to replenish enough spiritual energy.
And Naring also helps to relieve fatigue!
Malloro and Carlos were scheduled to be on duty in the early hours of the morning, when the two of them came together outside Zhang's tent.
"What, you're going to guard me?" Zhang Xiaojuan expressed puzzlement at their strange behavior.
Maloro nodded solemnly, "The number of demonic beasts hunted along the way suddenly increased today, and Carlos and I don't worry about you." ”
"But, there are so many of you!" Zhang Xiaojuan glanced at Andles and the others.
"Tonight, except for the two people on duty, everyone else will be in charge, and if there is any sudden situation, I am afraid that they will not be able to take care of it. "Malloro is telling the truth.
He thought about her so much, Zhang Xiaojuan's heart was warm, and he couldn't help but ask with concern: "However, if you don't keep the fire, it will be very cold at night, and my tent is too small." ”
"It's okay, you can rest assured that you can cultivate, just stay outside. Maloro said no more, and glanced at Carlos, and the two of them stood on either side of the tent, one on the left and one on the right.
It has been more than half a month since he entered the forest, and Zhang Xiaojuan insisted on accepting the spirit night and night, bent on breaking through the barrier of the aura attack attribute. And Maloro, Andles and others are of high level, and they have abundant spiritual energy reserves, so they don't need to be constantly incorporated. The two often remembered the scene of seeing Zhang Xiaojuan Naling in the small courtyard, and they tacitly wanted to find an opportunity to try it. However, Andles and the others were there, and they were not good at acting too obviously, and they just had an excuse to get close tonight, and they wanted to feel if it was different from usual.
So there were two more big men in the Rubbing Spirit combination, but Zhang Xiaojuan didn't notice it at all.
The campfire reflected their shadows on the tent, the shadows were reminiscent of the demonic beasts that had quietly come to prepare for a sneak attack, even if she knew that it was Maloro and Carlos, Zhang Xiaojuan was inevitably nervous and uncomfortable, and she decided to adjust her mentality before entering the state of Naling.
Of course, the way she adjusts her mentality is to tease the little furball and one, two, three, four, I haven't tickled the little hairball for a long time, it's better to hit the day now, and one, two, three, four, and I've been in an unusually excited mood recently, and I'm also tickling it to relax and relax. Soon, the gentle laughter of the little girl, the coquettish sound of the little furball, and the sound of one, two, three, four beet, and begging for mercy came from the tent, and it was afraid of itching.
Maloro and Carlos listened intently outside, smiling happily to the sound of laughter in the tent.
Andrés, who was meditating by the fire, glanced in the direction of the tent, then resumed his sitting position, closed his eyes, and made a spiritual gesture with his hands.
