From the floating city in the center of the continent as a teleportation circle, to the northernmost 'Dawn City' of the Holy Arathor Kingdom, and from 'Dawn City' to the giant war fortress not far away - 'Spear of Vengeance', spend the night from this fortress with the goal of revenge, and the next day when the gate opens, our barbarian adventurer leads his mount 'Carrot' and slowly walks out of the dark corridor.

The little mage Krees flew in the air next to him, his hand on his forehead, looking out at the distant landscape. Behind the two, three other fellow travelers followed.

Barrett saw a vast expanse of grassland as far as the eye could see, green in the summer, and dense shrubs and grasses dotted with yellow and blue wildflowers. The clear sky is bright and pleasant, but the clouds on the horizon are like waves, as if they are constantly tumbling and rushing.

"This is the Hanhai Grassland. "Guide, Jean, told Barrett and the little mage nearby, "We need to walk for at least seven or eight days to reach the territory of the elves, if all goes well. ”

"Isn't it going well?" asked the little mage flying in mid-air.

"That's not for sure, Master Krees. Jean replied with his head tilted, "Those wild creatures that live in the Hanhai Grasslands are not very friendly to humans like us who come from the south, and what is the reason for this......" He pointed to the fortress behind him, not completely picking out the words, but it was enough for everyone to understand, "So, I don't know what will happen on the way." ”

Since the Dark Ages, the Kingdom of Holy Arathor has wanted to include the entire Hanhai Grassland, including the elven territory hidden in the depths, within its own territory, and although the battle of the 'Abyssal Fire' completely frustrated the plans of this human kingdom, the subsequent friction and skirmishes have never stopped, so it is understandable that Jean is talking about this situation.

"Will there be a fight?" Barrett patted the 'carrot' on his side, quieting it down. The latter waited a little irritated in place, and seemed to want to run wild on the grassland.

"Well, probably not. The guide hesitated, "After all, we have the honorable Master Kress in our team, and no matter how reckless and savage those wilderness races are, I don't think they will do such an irrational thing." What's more, we still have you. ”

"Me?" asked the brute, puzzled. When did my popularity spread to Hanhai Grassland?

"Yes, you, Barrett the Nord. The guide explained, "You look like the Visnets, and you should be able to appeal to the Wilderness people, so I don't think there will be any problems with this journey." Jean swore by it, and finally added, "Unless, one of us has seriously offended them." ”

Surely Krees and I wouldn't do that, as for the next two people...... Barrett turned his head to look behind him.

"Rest assured, Mr. Barrett, my companions and I will never do anything out of the ordinary along the way. "The traveling merchant 'Eliel' in the rear seemed to see the barbarian's thoughts, "'The merchant should not offend anyone, even if he is a goblin', this is the code of trade that I have always believed. It seems to me that all the creatures in this multiverse are potential customers for us, and customers will bring a steady stream of gold, and no merchant will turn 'gold' away, will they. He said with a smile on his face.

The merchant Ariel and his bodyguard 'Red Crab' were met by Barrett when they were looking for a guide in Morninglight City, and Ariel came to him on his own initiative, saying that he was also planning to go to the Elven Sacred Land, hoping to go with them all the way.

The merchant said that he had a good relationship with the Elven Sanctuary, and showed a strangely shaped Elven token to prove that he had business dealings with them. The so-called token was indeed an elven thing, but in Barrit's opinion, it didn't really prove anything, after all, elf things could also be bought with gold.

However, the young mage Krees agreed to Ariel's request, and two more people were added to the journey.

As for the merchant's bodyguard, 'Red Crab', he is a lazy-looking adventurer. Red Crab doesn't tell everyone his real name, and Ariel says that he and Red Crab have known each other for nearly a decade, and only knows such an unknown nickname.

According to Red Crab's own words, the name and nickname are no different, they are just a title, and it doesn't matter much whether you say it or not.

This answer is not unusual, and many adventurers do prefer to use nicknames rather than their own names when introducing themselves. But only if the nickname is loud enough in the area that many people can know it, it makes sense.

Barrett looked at the adventurer Red Crab, who didn't care about the, and remembered what the little mage had said, "Everyone has their own secrets. ”

Hopefully, this trip will not be affected by these hidden secrets.

"Although the merchant is not engaged in production, his role is very huge, not only human beings, but even the elves who have escaped the world cannot do without us. Ariel's voice continued to ring in his ears, "We are like the blood in our bodies, transporting nutrients from here to there, and back from there, and earning a small profit from them to survive. ”

"Traders are willing to make 'small profits'? Haha, that's a strange statement, I've heard of it for the first time. Kreese teased in the air.

"It depends on who you compare yourself to, Your Excellency Master Krees. The merchant led the horse to the other side of the little mage. Because of the Nightmare Beasts, their horses didn't dare to get too close to Barrit, "Compared to ordinary farmers, these profits can indeed be described as 'rich', but compared to you, they are nothing. He said in a modest tone.

Before the actual departure, the guide Jean gave a brief introduction to the Hanhai grassland.

There are many kinds of wilderness races in this vast grassland, such as halflings, centaurs, half-sheep, leprechauns, bestials, and Barrett's barbarian cousins, the Visnat, who have lived here for generations.

Some of these races have been home to the Hanhai Grasslands since ancient times, while others were driven here by the expanding humans during the Magic Empire or after the Dark Ages.

The elves call this grassland the 'last pure land' in the main material world, and their own holy land, 'Lotsillin', is hidden in the depths of the grassland.

After the introduction, the guide Jean suggested that everyone set off, "Look at the direction of the wind, those dark clouds on the horizon should be coming towards us, I estimate that there may be a heavy rainstorm tonight, if we are sure to travel today, we better go faster, or we can wait until the rainstorm is over before leaving, you say, Master Krees." ”

Krees shook his head, "There is too much rain in the summer, no matter what, we will eventually encounter it on the road, just find a place to stay in advance where we can shelter from the rain." ”

"Is there any place to rest along the way?" Barrett asked.

"There's a halfling village called 'Sweet Sugar Cane' very close to here and you can definitely get there before dinner. The merchant replied, "Every time I go to the elven territory, I take a break there. It's just that the village will take a little detour along the route. ”

"I also suggested that we go to 'Sweet Cane'. Guide Jean agreed, "Compared to the other wilderness races, the halflings are more hospitable. Not only can we shelter from the rain there, but we can also find out what is happening on the grassland, which may be helpful for our subsequent journey. ”

"Okay, let's go to Sweet Cane, let's set sail and set sail!" said the little mage with excitement on his face, and the handsome man flew ahead first.

The four men behind each other glanced at each other as they stepped onto their mounts and followed behind the mage.
