Chapter 149: Shortcuts

Tarrant carefully analyzed Kitty's expression and tone, and then turned to look at Katrina, "Rex?" He subconsciously assumed that Rex had been killed, but the expressions of the two seemed to deny this.

Katrina nodded, "I forgot to tell you, we haven't found Rex's body yet, no...... Rex's body, no, no...... Rex's ...... Person. ”

"Still haven't found it?" Tarrant faintly became excited, "Then he might still be alive?!" he remembered that the word Katrina used to talk about Rex in the morning was "push down", and that she didn't show a sad look at the time, which probably represented great news!

Kitty replied, "We've searched the radiation area below the cliffs, including the air range. ”

"It must be a tree trapped in the middle, with branches that cushion the fall...... There is a good chance that he will survive!"

"That bloody garment was found in the tree," Kitty said at first.

"Lan Miao Plains, such a distant name, how long will it take to get there?" said Katrina, squeezing her thighs gently.

"At the speed of a wolf, the fastest will be tomorrow night. ”

The trip would have taken four or five days, and Tarrant asked, "Did you find only the lining?"

"I haven't found out yet, it's been nearly a month...... "Kitty replied obscurely.

A month, if there is an accident, the smell emitted has long been discovered, it is impossible for birds to dispose of his body, and it is impossible for beasts to leave a complete inner lining, he has already left, although it is impossible to guess how to leave for the time being, but Tarrant believes that Rex is no longer there, which is a reasonable speculation, not a prayer.

"Shall we go to the plains of Lanmiu together?" asked Katrina cautiously.

There is no point in going to the Plains of Lanmiu, just to admire Rex's bloody clothes, and Tarrant trusts the search ability of the Balance Emissary, "No, we still have the original plan to return to the capital." ”

Kitty's eyes widened suddenly, "You're going back?"

Tarrant explained: "Well, the situation here needs to be reported to the captain, no one thought that the psionic monsters have a teleportation array, they have other allies, these important information must be summarized immediately, and I want to know the situation of other nests, there must be a nest that can get some information." ”

"Oh......" Kitty looked into the distance, her accident turning into regret, she always wrote her inner thoughts on her face, "that...... You're going to Watt now?"

"Yes", Katrina patted her robe, not noticing Kitty's expression, "I'm going to change my clothes, take a hot bath, and have a good meal, this forest almost makes me forget what normal life is." ”

The corners of Kitty's mouth twitched slightly, "I...... I'll send you out of the forest. ”

"That's great, we won't get lost again, we've been wandering around a forest all morning, just because of this guy", Katrina gave a dark look.

Tarrant smiled bitterly, he wasn't going to trouble anyone, but Kitty was very serious about proposing this proposal that made it difficult for him to refuse, "Okay, let's go to your camp first." ”

"Shall we go to camp?" cried the mage, "the morning's plan doesn't seem to have that. ”

"The Great Druid and all the people in the camp have helped us, and we should go and say goodbye," Tarrant explained.

"The Great Druid is not in the camp," Kitty replied regretfully.

"What's wrong?" the Great Druid usually stays in the camp, something must have happened.

Kitty turned to look at the woodland below, "Some of the water downstream is contaminated. ”

"Pollution?" Tarrant repeated, polluting the water was a great desecration against all the creatures that inhabited it, undoubtedly a declaration of war on the Balancebringer, who would be so bold as to the forest being theirs.

"A few days ago, a large number of animals were poisoned after entering the water downstream of the stream, and the rangers took a sample of the water source and analyzed it to confirm that they had been put into a toxic substance, and they were looking for a way to neutralize the toxin. ”

Tarrant asked, "So, the water near the camp is unusable?"

Kitty nodded, "It's not certain the exact extent of the pollution yet, but we've stopped using the downstream stream water just to be on the safe side." ”

The situation was very serious, and it was likely that it was aimed at the Balance Emissary, and Tarrant worried, "Is the camp alright?"

"The dead animals gave us a warning in advance, and the people in the camp were fine. ”

"Do you know who did it?" Tarrant vaguely remembered hearing the term water pollution at some point, but after a month of sleep, he couldn't remember many details.

"The people of the town, some of them want to expand their hunting range in the Tree Forest, and I've heard that animal fur and horns can be exchanged for a lot of things. ”

Tarrant sighed, this incident was obviously done by the black-hearted merchants who were infected by the desire for profit, and the existence of the balance messengers hindered their pace of making money, and for this they did not hesitate to destroy the environment of the entire region, despicable people, the stream water flowed down to the plains, and the pollution spread over a large area, and the farmland south of the town of Watt might also be polluted, for a few golden coins, stupid and terrible people!

Katrina asked, "Shall we go to camp then?"

"No, since the Great Druids and they all have something to do, let's go straight out of the forest", Tarrant turned to Kitty, "Which direction?"

Kitty pointed to the woodland on the north side, "This road is the shortest, and you can reach the town of Watt tonight, but the ground is a little steep. ”

On the north side, there were dense dwarf trees, with interlaced foliage and a dark ground, which formed a slope of about forty-five degrees with the horizon, and Katrina swept through the woods, where there was no road at all, "Shall we walk through this wood?"

"It's going down, almost in a straight line from the town of Watt," Kitty looked up at the sky again, "It's likely to rain today." ”

At this moment, the sun is still shining, and a few faint white clouds are slowly floating in the air, and Tarrant changed the position of the battle halberd, "Then take this road and reach Watt Town as soon as possible." ”

Kitty would walk into the woods, "You can hold on to the trunks. ”

After entering the woods, the terrain descended sharply, and the two soon found that Kitty's construction was very practical, they had to rely on the support of the tree trunk to stabilize their weight, and the slope gave people the sense of danger of rolling down at any time, they grasped the adjacent tree trunk and slowly moved down, and the stones kicked by their feet rolled all the way down the slope until they were covered by the dense forest.

The straight-line distance plus the forty-five degree slope, such a speed of travel is more efficient than when going up the mountain, Kitty's figure jumps between the trees, her feet fall on the roots of the trees, the moment her wrist touches the trunk, she immediately begins to twist downward, Tarrant falls behind and looks at Kitty's movements, the roots of the tree resist Kitty's falling kinetic energy, the inertia of the body is released through the wrist, every time she passes a tree, she stabilizes her center of gravity in time, she exerts the flexibility of her limbs to the extreme, as if a woodland elf flies in the green.

Tarrant tried to imitate Kitty, but the weight of the armor on his back made it difficult for him to steady, and his body was always trembling to find balance when his toes collided with the roots, and his body and weight were destined to prevent him from flying like Kitty, and he looked back, Katrina was carefully grasping a thin sapling to explore his way down, "Katrina, we're going to speed up." ”

"Hmm...... No problem...... It's not going to ......," she reached out with her left hand to grab another sapling, "stumped...... The Great Master's ......" She let go of her right hand and walked in the direction of her left hand, but the robe in her right hand was hooked to the tip of the sapling.

"Be careful!" Tarrant snapped up.

"What?" the mage continued to walk to the left, his robe grabbing her figure with a thud, "Wow!" The delicate body was dragged to the ground, and the whole person rolled down with broken branches and dead leaves!

"Alas...... "Damn the law of bad things, Catrina was rolling quickly towards herself, Tarrant let go of the trunk, hooked the root with his right foot, and stretched out his hand to Katrina: "Catch!" He grabbed the mage, but the powerful momentum drove the fallen leaves under his feet downward, "No!" Tarrant's feet slipped and Katrina rolled into a ball.

The small sharp object rubbed on his face, Tarrant couldn't tell up and down, the helmet and the halberd were all thrown away, he only felt that his face was repeatedly hit by a certain part of Katrina, and he subconsciously hugged the mage and protected her with his body.

"Catch!" exclaimed Kitty.

The danger signal flashed, and Tarrant wanted her to dodge, he had already made this mistake, but Katrina kept pressing on his face so that he couldn't make a coherent sound, Kitty......'s hand appeared in view, damn it!
