Although the escort carried a hundred horses, these horses were not for people to ride, their main role was to carry luggage, as well as all kinds of supplies, and only occasionally on occasional occasions, such as when the march was long and the team members were tired. Of course, this does not include dwarves.

Dwarves have their own snow wolf mounts, and besides, the height of the horses is really not friendly to dwarves.

The members of the Dragon's Mercenary Regiment were accustomed to trekking on their legs, and along the way, they were the least likely to climb on horseback, and the most were the magicians.

Anyway, they are all a group of rich children, how can they experience such a long journey with their legs on weekdays? At first, because of the existence of Werther's idol aura, they were very interested, and they seemed to be more active than the group of mercenaries for this mission.

But as time went on, their physical disadvantage was revealed, and on the first day it was fine, most of the magicians walked on their own, and the next day, they began to climb on horseback frequently. By the third day, some of the younger or emaciated magicians were completely lying on their horses and unwilling to get down.

But even if they lie on the horse's back all day long, the shaking of the horses when they walk continues to consume their physical strength, and gradually, the bodies of many magicians are exhausted, and the escort team stops to rest more and more times on the way.

Werther looked at this scene, his brows furrowed slightly, but he didn't say anything.

Although he was a little worried about Lin Jue bringing this group of magicians at the beginning, he definitely didn't expect that their bodies would be so weak.

However, Lin Jue didn't think so, after all, his physical strength was not much better than this group of magicians, he had experienced a desert trip and several sea voyages, compared to them, slightly better, but compared to dwarves and mercenaries, his physical strength was definitely the worst.

It is precisely because of this that in the comparison between the two, the mercenaries have some admiration for Lin Jue's physical strength in their hearts, after all, in their eyes, the officials are all pot-bellied, and the wind blows down, and at this moment, Lin Jue is much better than these people in their impression.

Of course, Lin Jue didn't know anything about such changes in the hearts of the mercenaries.

During this time, in Lin Jue's eyes, there were only four things, trees, soil, people and horses.

In the first few days, he was a little excited about such a thing as going into the forest to explore, but after a few days, he realized that it was not worth the excitement at all.

Now it is the beginning of spring, the ice and snow are melting, and everything is awakening, including all kinds of small flying insects.

After a few days of walking in a forest, he suddenly remembered the desert he had walked through.

Although the desert is tired, hot, and the body is suffering all the time, as long as the water is sufficient, at least it can endure. But countless flying insects kept buzzing in their ears, constantly rushing towards their faces, skin, and over the past few days, Lin Jue's tolerance limit was almost to the limit, and he hated these flying insects so much that he gritted his teeth, but there was no way to deal with them.

Perhaps because of the harassment of flying insects, Lin Jue's energy was consumed by most of it, and after a few days, he only felt that his whole person was in a daze, completely forgetting the passage of time.

Obviously he had only asked Werther about the first few days of the forest at noon, but by now, when he was about to have dinner, he had forgotten about this time.

At this time, it was getting late, Lin Jue raised his head, through the countless branches and leaves, looking at the dark and blue colors of the sky, Lin Jue speculated that the current sun did not completely set on the mountain, but most of the sunlight had already been blocked by the dense branches and leaves on his head.

Werther and the elven guide were spreading out a large map on the ground, a map of the southern forest, and the two of them were studying their next path by the light of the torches.

The elf guide's name is Elrod, because Lin Jue has too many female elves in contact with on weekdays, if it weren't for the team led by Elrod this time, Lin Jue would have forgotten that elves are the same as humans, and there are also men.

Like the average elven male, Elrod was tall, thin and handsome, and possessed all the physical characteristics of the elves - a face that was too handsome to be beaten.

Although he doesn't look likable on the outside, this guy's personality is quite easy-going.

Perhaps his personality has something to do with his age, Lin Jue asked his age by chance, and he told Lin Jue that he was two hundred and seventy-two years old this year.

Elves before the age of a hundred have exactly the same temperament as humans, and there is no shortage of joys, sorrows, and sorrows. But once they are over a hundred years old, their personalities tend to become plain and indisputable, and in a way, elves are no different except that they are much older than humans.

The two of them were discussing there in a whisper, the rest of the escort team was busy camping, burying pots and cooking, Lin Jue's identity was placed there, these things naturally didn't need him to work hard, anyway, he was idle, he simply came to the two of them and listened to what they were talking about.

However, Lin Jue just took a closer look, but he was suspicious in his heart.

Werther and Elrod's expressions were one of sorrow.

"What's wrong, what's the trouble?" Lin Jue asked.

Werther frowned, shook his head, and said, "It's not troublesome, it's just that something is wrong along the way." ”

"Something is wrong?" Hearing Werther say this, Lin Jue's doubts in his heart became even stronger.

"Along the way, it's calm and smooth, nothing happens, what's wrong?"

This time, without waiting for Witt to speak, it was Elrod who spoke: "Lord Governor, do you know that in the past few months, a large number of magical creatures have migrated from the east of the elven kingdom to the west on a large scale?"

Lin Jue nodded, the little hamster in Lin Yue's hand was also one of these magical creatures, he naturally knew about it. But what are you doing with this?

Witt sighed lightly and said, "Maybe you've just heard about it, but you don't know the specifics. The mass migration of magical creatures to the west is a lot. I had been into the forest more than a month ago, and the southern forests were full of magical creatures, not only native to the region, but also migrating from the east. ”

After a pause, Werther continued: "But now, we have been walking in the forest for eight days, and we are about to enter the depths of the forest, not to mention magical creatures, have you ever seen any living creatures along the way?"

Hearing this, Lin Jue thought for a moment, indeed, along the way, except for the flying insects in the sky, he didn't even see a bird, if Witt didn't remind him, he really didn't find this problem.

After all, Lin Jue grew up on the earth, and there are no animals in the forest, which is not surprising, but he can't even see a bird, which is wrong.
