Brewster walked about ten miles south with the group, never entering the forest, but only walking on the edge. Erfi even began to wonder if he had forgotten his way, and asked him several times in distrust, but the knight only replied that he had not yet arrived, and continued on his way south.

Finally, the knight stopped in front of the two trees, and everyone looked at the two trees in front of them curiously, but they didn't see any difference, even Brewster himself touched his chin and thought for a while before nodding. "This is it, and you can walk in about half a day from here to the first room. So saying, he took the lead and rode in slowly.

No one dared to follow him in, everyone stood still, looking at the forest suspiciously, and Stan couldn't help but stop the knight in front of him. "Are you sure, Brewster, this is no joke, and we won't be able to get out if we're mistaken. ”

Brewster turned around, only to find that no one was following him, so he had to turn back. "You can't go wrong, it's here, it's just a few months later, and I can't forget it. ”

"Tell me, then, how you found this place? I don't see any difference between this place and other places. Nerfi lifted her chin and looked at the knight interrogatingly.

Brewster looked up and found two branches, then pointed at them. "That's it, the two branches, one pointing northeast and the other southeast, are at a very accurate angle of ninety degrees. ”

The group looked up and looked at the two branches that Brewster was pointing to, until their necks were sore, and they still didn't have a clue. "It's a bit too hasty, isn't it, what if two trees happen to have branches that grow like this? The Twilight Forest is so big, it's inevitable that there will be two trees that look alike. ”

"The last time I was here, I had been walking south from Olaf for about this long, so I shouldn't be wrong, trust me, the instincts of the Doyle soldiers are innate. "Brewster is not worried about going down the wrong path at all and is very confident.

"Isn't Doyle's soldier's instinct useful when dealing with the Dark Tide, even finding trees?" asked Ness, looking at Brewster in confusion.

"Don't listen to him, I think it's too risky, I won't go in. Nerfi crossed her hands in front of her chest, looking uncompromising.

Stan and Ness hesitated, as the psychological shadow of the Mist Monsters had caused them to be more cautious.

Seeing that no one believed him, Brewster was a little anxious. "I swear in the honor of a knight, I can't be mistaken. ”

Rui unnaturally moved his body on his mount and coughed slightly. "I'll follow Brewster in, and I think I can trust his memory.

Brewster looked at Rui gratefully, and the eyes of the two met for only a second, and Rui immediately turned his head to dodge.

"Don't get carried away by your feelings, Rui, I know Brewster gave you a token of promise, but you can't blindly defend him because of this. Nerfi looked at Rui sternly.

Rui embarrassed and hid his face in the hood. "I just make my own choices, and there is no emotional element in it. ”

As soon as Nerfi opened his mouth to respond, Stan immediately interjected. "I'll go in too, we don't have a better choice, there's only one way. ”

"Are you crazy too, Stan?" Nerfi glared at Stan as if he hadn't expected the knight to side with Ray.

"I'm not crazy, Nerfi, I hope you agree with my decision, I will protect you, as long as you come along, I promise you will not be harmed. Stan looked at Nerfi calmly.

"No matter how you protect, under the attack of the Mist Monster, you can't do anything at all. Nerfi's face flushed, and she looked at Stan angrily.

"Are you done? We're going in. Ray glanced at Nerfi and led the horse to Brewster's side, ready to enter the forest.

Ness timidly glanced at Stan and Nerfi and rode up to Rui's side. "I thought I could give it a try. Ness's voice was so small that she could barely hear it.

"Go in, I'm not going to go in anyway. Nerfi pursed her lips and looked at the crowd and tugged at the reins.

"Nerfi, if it weren't for Maurice's entrustment, I would have knocked you unconscious and tied to your horse and led you in by now. Stan looked straight at Nerfi, his hand clenching the reins into a fist.

"You can try, do you really dare?" Nerfi looked at Stan with disdain.

"It's not a question of daring or not, I'm not going to stun you, maybe it's a good thing for everyone not to participate in the rest of the journey, so be it, you can go back to Wolfsburg, or Deluth. With Stan, he tugged at the reins and turned Hope to face the forest. "Lead the way, Brewster. ”

Brewster shrugged his shoulders and began to walk slowly into the forest, Stan didn't look back and followed, Rui just glanced at Nerfi and followed, Ness looked at Nerfi with a surprised face, stopped talking, and followed Ray closely.

The forest was still thick with a white mist, and visibility was only about twenty yards away, but Brewster seemed to be able to recognize the way through the fog, and led the group forward without a pause.

Ness catches up with Stan and asks worriedly, "Is it really okay to leave Nellfi alone?" ”

"She's too headstrong to get used to her all the time, otherwise it will cause unnecessary trouble to others, and if she hadn't insisted on living alone, she wouldn't have been caught by those mages, and we wouldn't have almost died in the forest. Stan shook his head helplessly, a look of weariness.

"She won't really go back to Wolfsburg, I'm afraid she won't be able to cross the cold Doyle Plains alone. Brewster also turned back in front.

Stan sighs heavily. "I hope she can keep up, although she is willful, she still takes the overall situation into account. ”

"Then I have to hope that she doesn't lose it, otherwise it will be too dangerous to be alone in the forest. Rui pursed his lips, unable to do anything about this troublesome companion.

"I'll leave some marks on the way we pass so she can follow us. Brewster nodded at Stan, signaling that he shouldn't worry too much.

Stan rubbed his brows vigorously, looking tired, as if he had aged ten years at once.

Under Brewster's leadership, the group did not hear any suspicious sounds, there were not even animal calls in the silent forest, and even birds did not try to fly into the forest. There was not much conversation between them, except for the rustle of horses' hooves on the ground covered with fallen leaves, and they rode deeper into the forest.

The surroundings seemed to be spotless, and Stan could no longer make out the direction, but just rode numbly behind Brewster, no one knew how he found the right way, and they didn't dare to ask, for fear that Brewster's answer would scare them again. After about four hours of walking, Stan suddenly felt that the fog around him seemed to be less dense than before, and he could see the sky with clouds through the gaps between the branches above him. Ray and Ness were aware of the situation and began to talk excitedly.

After about ten minutes of walking, the surrounding forest looked indistinguishable from ordinary woods, and even the sound of birdsong could be heard from the branches, and a wooden hut about the size of an Orion's hut appeared in front of everyone. Brewster smirked back at his surprised companion behind him. "I said it, I can't be mistaken. ”

"Sorry, Brewster, for our suspicions. Stan nodded apologetically.

Brewster waved his hand nonchalantly. "I didn't pay attention to it at all, let's get over it, I've been walking for so long, and I've never rested. ”

The whole hut was made of the trunk of a hard northern cedar tree, and even a sword could not easily destroy it, and it could fit about ten people. Brewster walked up and knocked heavily on the door. "Anyone? We're coming from Doyle and need to go to Valdosta, so we're here for a break. ”

There was no one in the room to answer, so Brewster knocked on the door again, and then put his ear to the door and listened for a while. "It seems strange that there is no one, there are people stationed in every room. ”

"There can't be any surprises, like the Mist Monster has already attacked here. Ness looked around worriedly.

Stan picks up a piece of wood from the ground that has been split in half by an axe. "Probably not, you see there is no trace of a fight here, and the house has not been damaged in any way, and there is even some firewood left in front of the house, obviously the people here left calmly. ”

"It looks like you're really Doyle. A voice came from behind the crowd.

"Who is it?!" Brewster and Stan turned their heads alarmedly, as their swords were unsheathed.

"Don't panic, be careful of hurting yourself. A figure jumped from a tree, followed by three figures in quick succession from the surrounding trees. "Why are you venturing into here, and the Doyles know how to find their way here?"

Brewster stepped forward, still holding his sword in his hand. "We were ordered by King Aidra XVII of Doyle to rush to Valdosta as soon as possible to meet with the Grand Sage Adeline, so we ventured through here, and as for why we were able to find it, it is our own secret. ”

The man in the lead raised an eyebrow when he heard Brewster's name come out of Brewster's mouth. "Adeline? What's your name?"

"I'm Brewster, the captain of Doyle's knights, this is Stan, and the two mages are Ray and Ness. Brewster introduced them one by one.

"Well, the order I received only mentions Stan and the other mage's names. The man swept through the crowd in confusion. "There should still be a mage. ”

"Nellfi? She may or may not follow. Stan nodded at the man.

"But since one of you is the one we need to escort, then it's okay. The man nodded to his companion behind him, and walked towards the house. "Adeline is in Valdosta, and she has already instructed the patrols in the Twilight Forest and the garrisons of the cabin to escort you safely to Valdosta if they encounter you. The man opened the heavy wooden door and made way for the passage. "Please come in, and before you set off again, please get some rest. ”
