Chapter 468: The Uninvited Guest (Part II)

In ancient times, the beast curse, which was once regarded as the great enemy of many civilized species, is now a disaster that can no longer be talked about. On the shelves of many grocery stores, there is a pale green foaming potion called 'Breath of Restoration', which can easily remove the effects of curses and is also very affordable.

However, you need to take the potion in time for a certain period of time when you are infected by the curse, otherwise the beast curse will completely change your racial attributes, and no amount of potions will be used in the future. Moreover, the natural bestiality (born naturally) cannot be restored with potions, and it already belongs to a completely new species.

But in fact, many people don't want to lift the curse, they will even take the initiative to seek the curse, and then accept it wholeheartedly, and through the accumulated experience, finally master the ability to transform between human form, beast form, and half-human form at will, and make themselves stronger.

And the beast man in front of him who was slowly walking from a distance, Barrett didn't know what kind of person he should belong.

The upright bear-man is nearly three meters tall and wears a tan fur of the same color as its body. The garments were crudely made and worn, and in many places they were worn out of shape. He also had an iron axe pinned to his waist that looked like a lumberjack, but it was much larger than a regular logging axe.

The hair on the bearman's jaw is tied into a long, thin braid, like a dwarven beard. The braid hung down to the chest with white crescent-shaped markings, and a hollow dark green pebble fell from the end.

"Good day, travelers. In a low, deep tone, the bearman uttered a slightly jerky lingua franca, "I'm 'Grove Bluntpaw', a wanderer on the Vast Sea Grasslands. ”

Barrett looked at the other's claws, which were shaped like human hands with curved and sharp nails. The nails didn't look dull at all, as if even the armor of steel could be scratched with a single claw.

This surname is a bit unworthy of the name, the brute thought to himself.

"Hello, Mr. Grove. Ariel the merchant straightened his messy hair and took a step forward with a smile on his face, "May I ask you for something from us, or is it just an ingenious encounter, like picking up a gold coin in the grass?"

"It's not easy to find gold coins in the Hanhai Grassland. "Unless, you follow its rolling trails all the way to find it in the shade of a tree." ”

"It seems that we are the gold coin in your mouth, and you have been following us?" the merchant took another half step back imperceptibly.

"I'm not following you for malicious intent, nor is it targeting you for some reason, and I don't want anything from you. Grove seemed to notice the merchant's movements, "In fact, if it weren't for the chirping of that big bird in the sky, I wouldn't even come out to meet you." However, since the vigilant bird has spotted me. The bear man looked up at the sky, "Then I think I should come out and explain it to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings." ”

"Very well, tell me what you're doing this for?" the little mage asked suddenly.

"Hmm...... , I prefer to call it 'protection', Your Excellency the Venerable Master. Grove bowed slightly. "Protect you, and protect the Hanhai Grassland. ”

It seems that all outsiders who enter the grasslands will inevitably be monitored by these wilderness peoples. Barrett thought of the halfling druid in Sweet Sugar Cane Village, Master Card, who didn't know how to use it, and knew from afar that they were coming.

"Actually, we don't need your protection. The little mage stretched out his hand, "If you really fight, you may not be able to beat this companion next to me." Krees pointed at Barrett, "As for the Hanhai Meadow, please rest assured, she is so beautiful, how can we bear to hurt her? ”

Rabbits are good, they are cute, delicious, and can reproduce quickly, no matter how you eat them, you can not worry about the danger of extinction. These little ones are always missing from the recipe for wilderness adventures. Barrett swallowed subconsciously, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't eaten breakfast yet.

The bear man didn't care about the rabbit's problem, but looked down at his paws, "Combat is the most helpless means of protection, and it can sometimes cause even more damage than the original ending. "I only need it when I have to." ”

Unexpectedly, this tall and fierce man on the outside is still a person who yearns for peace deep down.

"For example, when dealing with blighters?" asked the little mage.

The bear-man nodded, "It seems that you already know about the catastrophe that is spreading across the Hanhai Grassland. ”

"When we passed by Sweet Sugar Cane Village before, Master Kad there had already told us about it. "But our group isn't too worried about the danger of the blighters. Because here's His Excellency Master Krees. He gestured to the little mage, "And you can tell that the others are also very good at martial arts and have a lot of adventure experience. So...... Do you see what I mean, Mr. Grove?"

"I know, then we'll leave it at that. The bearman turned cleanly and walked in the direction he had come, as if he was going to leave like that.

"You're still going to follow and spy on us from afar, aren't you?" the little mage shouted at the bearman.

"It's 'protection'!" the bear man said, turning around.

Not to protect us, but to protect the grasslands. Barrett understood the implications. They can prove that they don't need protection, but they can't prove that they don't harm the grassland.

"These wilderness races are very wary of humans. The brute heard the guide Jean say in a very small voice to the red crab beside him.

"In that case, then you should keep an eye on it from afar...... I mean protection, it's better to just follow us. "If you don't mind." ”

In this way, Barrett and his group have another simple, stubborn bestiality - Bear Grov Blunt Claw.

......

When Grove transforms into a real giant bear, his running speed is not much slower than that of a normal horse, and his endurance is even more impressive, which reminds Barrett of his own country's Knights of War Bear.

The Nord landscape is rugged and uneven, and the horse-based cavalry plays little role here, so the Nord Kingdom has very few cavalry, only a dragon knight and a war bear knight. Moreover, both mounts are more troublesome to raise, so the scale of the Knights is not large.

Barrett had ridden both of these ferocious mounts as a child, so when he saw Grove Bluntpaw running after the crowd not far away, he couldn't help but feel the urge to jump on it.

The rest of the journey went well, as they had never encountered the blighted monsters that they had heard had spread everywhere, and no other wilderness tribes had come to trouble them, except for three gnolloin bandits with a small pack of goblins.

But instead of attacking them, the robbers fled from afar.

"Because the area of the Hanhai grassland is very large, and the dense grass is very good at escaping and hiding, there are many robbers and robbers here. During the break, Gene introduced to the group, "There are not only annoying races such as jackals, goblins, and snake people, but also many wanderers who have been expelled from the group, and of course, I don't mean you, Mr. Grove. Jean glanced at the bear-man next to him, "And a lot of fugitives from our human nation. ”

"There are indeed a lot of human fugitives. Grove, who never changed his human form, added, "But there are more human riders." Fugitives occasionally attack passers-by, but they are not a threat to the gathering places of the community, but not the heavily armed riders of the human race. Not only will they hunt lone elves, centaurs, etc., but sometimes they will directly attack some weakly defended gathering places, kill the weak, and burn their food for the winter. ”

"That was before, not now!" retorted Jean, "since the death of Condra IV and the accession of To'o VI, such things have been completely eradicated. I mean, attacking the gathering ground and that kind of thing. The voice behind him gradually became quieter, and it seemed that the hunt for a lone individual was still being done.

Seeing this, the merchant changed to another topic and asked, "I suddenly thought of a question!" He clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention, "There are bear people, werewolves, tiger people, rat people, etc., all of them were originally transformed from infected humans, and now some of them have become a new race through reproduction. Then you say, the minotaurs and gnolls, will they also be human beings in the first place?"

"If a gnoll bites you, it won't make you a new gnoll. Red Crab shook his head in denial.

"What if the curse on them has completely lost the ability to infect them after an extremely long time?" the merchant asked again.
