Chapter 256: Set up camp
For this group of novice adventurers, dealing with the corpse of the giant arm bear demon was much more difficult than expected.
The flesh of the bear monster is extremely hard, and even more so is the bones underneath the flesh. With the highest green-level weapon in the hands of a few people, it is really difficult to cut it.
What's more, among the several people, only Doris and Daniel had participated in a practical course in dealing with monster materials, and Doris was concentrating on extracting the bear's teeth, so all the work fell on Daniel's shoulders.
Under Daniel's command, the others were not completely confused.
Those who were not good at physical activity, such as Deli and Elliot the archer, began to rearrange the camp and then light a fire to cook. It seems that the work of dealing with the monsters will last for a day.
And the magician Titus, after lighting a campfire and arranging a few detection spells, came to Su Wen and Mia's side to talk to them.
Titus is probably a character who belongs to the category of social animals, with a familiar personality and a kind smile that makes people not disgusted, even Su Wen didn't feel much disgusted.
Mia seems to have seen a lot of this type of person, and according to social etiquette, she answers Titus's questions without a match.
It's not just the questions, as they ask the questions, Titus is also introducing the two of them to their group.
Among them, Daniel, Dapan, and Di Li are graduates from Jiangnan University, and they came to the abandoned village of Xuedun this time to do graduation practice. The rest were good friends on the way.
Amar is a side branch of a large family and seems to have some hidden secrets that are inconvenient to say; Doris is an adventurer who has just graduated from her master's tutelage and this is her first time hunting with someone other than her master; Elliot and Titus are a pair of good friends from a central city, and before becoming adventurers, they were young people who worked and studied at the same time.
Due to the fate of various evil things, the seven people gathered together. At Daniel's suggestion, he prepared his supplies and equipment, bypassed the abandoned village, and came to the south, where few people had visited.
The hunt went quite smoothly at the beginning, as you can tell from what they were carrying. Although there is no high-value income, and the horses are carried on horseback, they are all ordinary materials of ordinary monsters, but they can barely maintain a break-even, and if they stay for two more days according to their original plan, it is estimated that they can also make a small profit.
In addition to material gains, in fact, the gains in practical experience are more important to them.
The appearance of the giant arm bear demon also disrupted their plans. However, it allowed them to gain valuable practical experience in dealing with medium and large monsters.
Su Wen's statement to Titus is to bring students to practice here.
Mia's petite figure and youthful appearance, if she hadn't spoken in person, probably no one would have thought she was twenty-two years old.
Therefore, the credibility of this pair of "master and apprentice" combination is relatively high.
Daniel's progress is really not flattering, and if it continues like this, even if there is another day, it will not be able to completely deal with it.
So before they asked for help, Su Wen also took the initiative to come up and give guidance to a few people. For some bones and tissues that are difficult to cut, he will also take action personally.
So when the sun was about to sink in the west, the useful materials were finally broken down.
Including a pile of bones, back armor, some fur, stripped of fleshy arms, and so on.
After discarding some materials of low value, there is no problem in transportation.
After all this, the men rode some distance north, found an open high and low, set up camp, and prepared to return north to the town of Patin, after a night's rest.
Accustomed to ghost horses, Mia has a noticeable gap after riding a real horse. In addition to speed, there is also a considerable gap between stability and the character of the horse.
For example, after a casual walk, the horse will stop to gnaw on the grass on the side of the road, and after a short walk, it will stop to drink the horse.
The corpse of the bear monster is placed there, and after a while, it will attract a large number of monsters. In their current state, it's quite dangerous.
Skilled adventurers will also use the corpses of monsters as bait to attract more monsters to gather and then hunt them down.
However, the risks of doing so are also quite terrifying.
Mia is in the bar, and every once in a while, she hears the news that a certain adventure group has been wiped out.
In fact, as long as you prepare and plan in advance, and be careful when hunting, if you don't encounter such an unexpected situation as today's bear monster, there will generally be no dead people. But some adventurers are greedy for merit and are carried away by profits, which leads to tragedy.
The income of a hunt is almost equivalent to a month's salary for a normal job, and if the adventurer's heart is unstable, then it is easy to cross the safe yellow line for the sake of the extra profit, and in the end, what awaits them is destruction.
In the presence of Su Wen and Mia, several of the young people seemed a little reserved. Daniel was also one of them, however, as a recognized captain and leader, he still mustered up the courage to take the initiative to talk to Su Wen and them.
As for Su Wen, he didn't show the so-called "master demeanor", he chatted with a few people very casually, and as the chat deepened, these young people also felt that this master, who didn't know what level, actually seemed to be a very easy-going person.
Su Wen proposed to take care of the vigil himself, but those young people naturally had to refrain a few times, but in the end, it was decided that several of them would take turns to keep vigil.
The reason why Su Wen decided to keep vigil was because he didn't have a sleeping bag at all, which was quite suspicious. However, after making a request for a vigil, Su Wen reacted, and it seemed that he could fool the past with the point of "lost luggage".
Mia took out her sleeping bag, and her first reaction was to place it next to the horse. After all, in the past, sleeping next to ghost warhorses was a very safe thing, but now, if you sleep next to these ordinary horses, you probably don't want to live......
In the first half of the night, there were two girls who kept vigil with Su Wen, and then the magician Titus and the archer Elliot. Daniel, Dapan and Ammar were chosen in the second half of the night.
The reason for this arrangement is that professions that use magic power need to maintain enough sleep, so that they can have enough spirit to control magic power, otherwise, it will still have a considerable impact on their overall strength.
When they kept vigil alone, Su Wen would still chat with them alone in order to relieve boredom. For example, what happened in the Maleno Empire recently, several people also told Su Wen some interesting news according to their respective concerns.
However, most of them are still areas that Su Wen doesn't care much about, and after hearing about it, he forgot about it.
The night continues.
