On the corpse of the green man, covered in wounds, Eren looked at its waist and was stunned.

It has a strangely shaped cloth belt around its waist, with a rough shape and simple stripes, if it were an ordinary person who sees this kind of thing, he probably won't know what it is, but Allen and these people are basically not ordinary people, and it is easy to tell the origin of this belt.

"Orcs?"

His brows furrowed slightly, and his mind couldn't help but think of those extremely unfriendly monsters, and Alan crouched down and carefully examined the belt.

Captain Kyle explained, "It looks fresh and doesn't get too much dirt and dust on it, so I wonder if this belt is something the monster recently acquired." ”

Hearing this, Allen's dark brow furrowed even deeper.

Because of the green man, he didn't dare touch the green man's body, so he just stared at it, but even if Kyle didn't explain, he found the anomaly in it.

And not only that, he also recognized which tribe the belt belonged to.

"The Rock"

With sharp teeth and sharp mouths, tigers and bears, it seems that most of the orcs are the same, but in fact, they also have their own civilization. The style of the items made by each tribe of orcs is vaguely different from that of other tribes, and has its own characteristics.

Biru is the belt in front of him, the material is rough and solid, and there is no lack of weirdness in the hard style of the texture, and under the blow of the sword, the entire belt is still full of a little iron and stone sound.

As the great enemy of the stars, the nobles of the Star Empire have never stopped studying the orcs, so they have a lot of information about them, and they will also pass on this research results to future generations very seriously.

Therefore, Eren understands the orcs quite well, and he understands the orc tribe represented by the belt even more impressively.

The Rock Tribe is the largest orc tribe near Reef City, and the main enemy of Reef City.

The stars are not peaceful, this sentence does not only mean that there are countless demonic beasts in the stars, but also the existence of orcs.

Since the Third Orc Expedition, countless orc tribes have settled in the Stars, harassing various cities from time to time.

Bay City is too biased, so the orcs' hands and feet don't reach there, but as an important city in the south, Reef City, it is impossible for there to be no orcs around.

The Rock Tribe, this orc tribe has been in Ellen's memory since he was born, and it has never disappeared.

He even knew very well the current leader of the Rock Tribe, as well as the name of his son.

"The Third Orc Expedition... Judging by the name, who would have thought that the stars were nothing more than the expeditionary party?"

Retracting his gaze at his belt, Alan shook his head with a sigh. Get up, motionfor the guards to take a break, and continue on their way.

Because they found traces of orcs, their minds were quite heavy.

There is a deep blood feud between the orcs and the stars, which is a big threat to all the star cities, and this is not far from Bay City, if the appearance of the belt is just accidental, if there are really orcs around here...

"It's time to take precautions. ”

Allen came to this conclusion.

The group shuttled through the woods, hearing all kinds of ghostly noises from time to time, but they managed to survive the first day of their advance.

A simple estimate shows that the pace of walking is not very fast, but based on past experience, they have already walked a third of the way.

The wilderness was not safe, and Alan and the others would have liked to have reached the reef early if possible, but the night was not suitable for traveling, so they found a relatively secluded area to set up camp.

Raise the campfire, take out the prepared brown bread, and bake it a little to make it dinner.

Alan is the same, the environment is not used, in this case, he doesn't have the heart to put on any aristocratic shelves.

During this period, the guards talked in whispers, and Kyle told Alan some simple outdoor knowledge from time to time, which Alan took the initiative to propose, and he was very concerned about his own shortcomings, so he naturally did not hesitate to ask the guards for advice.

While talking and nibbling on black bread, after the meal, the head of the guard, Kyle, went to arrange for the change of guard at night, and Alan took out the letter and the ring that he dug out of the soil during the day, and after carefully examining the ring, Alan reconfirmed that there was nothing special about it, and put it aside.

"Look at what is written on this letter. ”

It seems that what he found is not a treasure, which makes Alan a little depressed, but in fact, he didn't expect anything.

Opening the letter, he stared intently. After a long time, the casualness on his face slowly disappeared, and finally turned into a sigh.

There was no hidden information or treasure address on this letter, it was just an ordinary letter from home.

Ordinary but extremely valuable family letters.

In the stars, correspondence is basically the preserve of the aristocracy, and it has to be the kind of aristocracy that is quite wealthy, and even the poorer can't play it.

The magical beasts in the territory of the stars are not limited to the ground, but also the sky, so in the stars, whether you are traveling from the ground or from the sky, there are dangers.

In this environment, the communication of the stars is very closed, and on the ground, one or two ordinary knights do not dare to go out of the city at all, unless there are more than a dozen people, such as Allen, they dare to take a risk.

And the danger in the sky is no less than on the ground, thunderbirds, corrosive vultures, and even the hidden starry sky dream snake, etc., these magical beasts are active in the starry sky all the time, and ordinary carrier pigeons and even ravens are impossible to cross their territory, and they cannot communicate normally.

Only specially bred ravens can travel back and forth between the two cities intact, but accidents also happen.

Therefore, telecommunication is a very costly act in Stellars.

Ordinary people don't even think about the amount of gold coins it costs to cultivate special ravens, so if they want to send messages to people in other cities, they can only choose to pay a huge usage fee to the nobles who own the raven, which is generally the sum of the gold coins that ordinary people can earn in a few years.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, ordinary people would not choose this kind of aristocratic service, unless there are special circumstances.

The letter in Alan's hand is a special case, and the information recorded on it is plain and full of tragedy.

This is the longing letter of an old mother who wants to take one last look at her son before she is seriously ill and is about to die.

The old mother lives in Bay City, and the son went to Reef City many years ago to make a living, unlike the nobles with many guards, it is very inconvenient for ordinary people to travel between the two cities, basically they only see each other once a year, usually following behind the caravan.

And judging from the time marked on the letter, it is clear that their annual meeting is very early...

After a long silence, Alan put down the letter in his hand.

"Venture out of town?"

There are only a handful of caravans between Bay City and Reef City, and Alan still knows a little about those caravans, basically he only comes to the Bay once at the end of the year, and he doesn't go to that small remote city at all at other times.

And the old man who wrote this letter did not have much time.

It is not difficult to imagine how helpless and anxious the son who received this letter was, and it is not difficult to guess that he would definitely beg many people to pass with him, but in the end he would definitely be devastated.

At the same time, it is not difficult to imagine how confused the old man who wrote this letter has been, or rather, her obsession with seeing her son for the last time has blinded her rational thoughts.

The package was buried under the roots of the tree, and as his owner disappeared, it is not difficult to guess what happened to him.

Then he thought of the green man they had met earlier, the way he looked down and rummaging, and seemed to be convinced that something was buried under the roots...

"Could it be him?"
