"Eh, Su Wen, why did they stop now?" said Ellie, who suddenly poked Su Wen.

"Stopped?" Su Wen was also a little strange, so he looked at the map and found that the white dot representing more than a dozen people in the investigation team had indeed stopped in place: "I'll take a look...... Sure enough, I didn't encounter anything, did I?"

"No, if you cross this mountain, it's the no-man's land where monsters are rumored to appear......" Greenfield observed the surrounding scenery and deduced where they were at this time: "The peak to our left is the Malenor Peak, and opposite it is the Peak of Stinole and the Peak of Osivia, these three peaks, in the midst of the three empires, are surrounded by the middle of the area......"

Following Greenfield's direction, Su Wen looked over, and sure enough, he found three peaks, towering in a three-legged position, behind the vision blocked by the mountain, it was the barren area that was not too small, that is, here, the frequency of monster activities began to increase, and there were even rumors of monsters descending.

However, if a monster descends, there should be movement on the side of the Divine Cult?

Although the Cult did not move, because of this rumor, the merchants changed their course for the sake of safety.

"So they plan to stay here overnight and go there the next day in the best possible condition to investigate. Greenfell explains: "It's also the safest way to do it. ”

"And along the way, neither we nor they have encountered half a monster head-on, and if you combine the rumors, then the place where the monster appeared must be ......on that plain," Barot analyzed.

"What about us, camp here...... Or?"

"Let's set up camp and enjoy the scenery around us. Su Wen said: "By the way, do you want to climb Maleno Peak? The scenery there must be very good, right?"

Greenfield was a little surprised, but then, he also realized that Su Wen's original intention was not to investigate those monsters, but to consult the opinions of Ellie and Mia, and then set off at will. In other words, Su Wen is more like he came for an outing......

"Yes!" Mia raised her hand in approval.

Although the Maleno Peak is not the highest mountain in the Empire, only a handful of people have been able to climb it so far. The first is because of the terrain that is difficult to climb, and the second is because of the long distance, and even monsters. However, the scenery on the Maleno Peak is not inferior to that of any other place! In the case of the comparison of interests, most climbers will not come to climb the Maleno Peak, but will choose a few famous mountains and rivers within the national border.

"Whatever, but don't you want to go over there?" Ellie didn't have any particular orientation, just mentioned.

"What about Balott, aren't you worried about your brother?" asked Su Wen, turning his head.

Balort nodded and shook his head again: "Although I am worried, my brother is hard-working, and he probably can't die." When I was a child, I was thrown into the water by my Uncle Justin, so I should be fine this time, right?"

My sister is undoubted.

So everyone happily decided to go on the next day's mountain trip.

Greenfell sighed, isn't it a little self-inflicted to follow him? Even if they don't have themselves, it's impossible for them to get lost here, right? And along the way, the role of his own "scout" is to be a narrator for them......

Thinking of this, Greenfell shook his head, threw away the illusion in his mind about "saving the investigation team and making a further contribution to the promotion in the midst of danger", and gradually put his mentality right.

Anyway, since it's here, it's better to treat it as a trip. What's more, I also rode this legendary ghost war horse, no loss, no loss!

Su Wen began to build the igloo, Greenfell was groping the surrounding terrain to do what a scout should do, and Barot and Mia began to follow the method given to them by Greenfell, looking for snow radishes in the surrounding snow. Ellie jumped off her horse, faced the Maleno Peak, and stretched.

"Hey Su Wen. ”

"What's the matter?"

"There's a bit of a powerful aura on that mountain......

"Are you powerful or are you still powerful?"

"I don't know. Ellie told the truth, "That thing on the mountain doesn't seem to be a monster...... As for monsters, I always feel that there are them on that plain, not to mention the number, there are really a few that are particularly conspicuous in the breath. ”

"Is there really a monster?" Su Wen stopped what he was doing, temporarily piled the snow on the ground, and then analyzed: "In this case, Lawson and their trip tomorrow will be dangerous......

"So what do we do?" Ellie blinked at Su Wen.

"What do you want to do?" Su Wen also looked at Ellie with a smile.

"What to do?" asked Mia, holding a snow radish the size of her forearm, walking back, placing the snow on the ground.

"Oh, are we thinking about roasting this radish or making it into soup. ”

"Yes, and I don't think they have too much food, if they steal it again, they will be found sooner or later, right?" Ellie responded, "Then let's dig more food tonight, or I'll get a goat again?"

"I think so. Su Wen nodded in agreement.

So, while exploring the terrain, Greenfell saw him jumping towards the back of the mountain empty-handed, and subconsciously asked where to go, and got an answer of "looking for food".

After about twenty minutes, Ellie returned with a horned sheep, much to the surprise of Greenfield's face.

It doesn't look like a horned sheep in this area, so where did Ellie get this horned sheep on her back?

Probably instinctively, Ellie's method of skinning, disemboweling, and gutting is simply done in one go, even if he is an old hunter, he may not be as skilled as Ellie. The others didn't know, and Greenfell thought he was no match for Ellie anyway.

Thinking about it, Greenfell didn't even see what tools Ellie was using......

"Ah...... If only there was salt. ”

The team's camp, Tavlear and Rosen, were on vigil for the last day before the investigation. Both of them tacitly did not talk about serious topics about business, but were idle and chatted with each other about family life. As alumni, Tavlear and Rosen also have a lot of topics to talk about, and as the two get along for a few days, the relationship between the two is also progressing in a good direction.

In small talk, the topic somehow returned to food.

"It seems that there is still a large amount of food in our team. ”

"yes, but this guy isn't honest either......"

"It's okay in our team, if you go to the battlefield, such a guy will definitely be punished. Tavlear shook his head, not optimistic about the behavior of a certain stealing team: "But being able to join this investigation team shows that there are still two brushes, and I hope that the amount of food stolen by that guy is worth what he did......"

Rosen nodded in agreement.

The two were silent for a while, and suddenly, they both looked at each other, and their expressions became serious.

For on the other side of the open space where the horses were stacked with supplies, there was a distinct, rustling sound! A faint short figure, faintly appearing there, seemed to be rummaging for something.
