Chapter 36: Danger lurks
A few days later, Alyssa, who was walking along the avenue, called Sun Wufan into her carriage, and she was dissatisfied with the current speed of travel. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoAlthough the carriage reinforced by the magic of Warcraft horses is already fast, the world is just as big.
"Commander, I think the speed is too slow now, can you speed it up?"
"I'm fine, but your carriage is okay?"
Of course, Sun Wufan could also take out another car, but he didn't plan to do it.
Alyssa didn't know, of course, but she had other plans.
"Commander, at present, we are all driving along the avenue, although it is relatively safe, but I believe that with your strength, even if you take the dangerous path, there will be no problem, right?"
"Trail?"
Sun Wufan took out a map he had with him, and looked left and right on it, but he couldn't see any trails.
Alyssa couldn't laugh at his actions, and sometimes I really didn't know if this person was playing stupid or something. This world is vast and sparsely populated, and even the avenue they are walking on will rush out of a magical beast from time to time, let alone a place with few people. As you can imagine, it can be so troublesome to perfect a map in such an environment.
Basically, the maps that circulate outside are very rudimentary, except for the periphery of big cities, and even the terrain. Even if there is, it is a secret of various countries, and it is a great crime of treason to leak it casually. After all, there is no such thing as satellites in this world, let alone the terrain, even if you can see it at home.
Especially in such a world, a perfect map must not only have terrain, roads, but also the distribution of magical beasts - this is undoubtedly the most important. For a merchant like Alyssa, too, a shortcut to get to your destination quickly and avoid dangerous monster gatherings is hard to come by, and it is even possible to kill people for it.
Think about it, you just got the news of a flood here, and you need to send it back to headquarters as soon as possible to mobilize resources to make a fortune, and your competitors just happened to know that they are faster than anyone. At this time, only you know how much profit you can bring to a faster shortcut.
"Captain, I don't know if you have any path that can quickly pass through the Elven Forest, I hope to be able to cross it faster than anyone else!"
Alyssa looked at Sun Wufan calmly, the forest of elves sounds very beautiful, it is said to be the habitat of elves, but it is also a paradise for monsters and a forbidden place for humans. If you want to pass through there, even a ninth-level mercenary group should be a little scared, after all, this is an escort mission! But if you want to bypass the Elven Forest, the road to go becomes very far. And the path in her mouth is actually a deviation from the avenue, crossing the habitat of the monster.
However, in fact, various large chambers of commerce, countries, mercenary groups and other forces have their own shortcuts of this kind, and the difference lies in the length and threat. There are even so-called public shortcuts, where some small chambers of commerce and mercenaries risk crossing dangerous areas in order to hurry, and the road is formed when there are too many people.
It's just that compared to the avenues patrolled by national forces, these shortcuts are much more dangerous, not only to deal with the harassment of demonic beasts all the time, but also to be careful of all kinds of robbers. Sometimes, these big chambers of commerce will take this road without rushing or taking risks.
The crux of the matter lies in Alyssa's last sentence, which is faster than anyone else, and is a shortcut for the big forces to explore and study and master on their own. Although it is faster than the shortcuts that most people know, even if it is already trying to avoid Warcraft, it is also much more dangerous than those public shortcuts. It's just that these big forces have gone through and are more familiar, and although they lose a lot of money every time they want to leave, they can all get through.
Alyssa originally thought that a powerful mercenary group like the Earth Mercenary Group would have its own set of methods, but Sun Wufan always had an unclear expression.
“...... Captain?" Alyssa's expression froze, "Don't you know that way?"
"I don't know, it's my first time playing a dart. ”
What does it mean?
Alyssa's head is full of question marks, but the most important thing now is to get back to the headquarters of the Moonspot Chamber of Commerce as soon as possible. Although she really wanted to tell Sun Wufan about the secret road, her brother also knew that it was more dangerous to go there.
"But it's okay, don't you just want to take a shortcut!"
With a snap, Sun Wufan didn't care about anything shocking, and directly turned on the virtual light screen in front of Alyssa and others.
At that moment, Sun Wufan could feel that their eyes seemed to bulge without looking. It's like A*I, which usually only looks at a full screen of mosaics, but suddenly sees HD.
"I see, we're here, the end is here. ”
Sun Wufan clicked a start and end point on the screen, and the computer immediately drew a zigzag red line on the screen.
"Check it out, this is our best route!"
Sun Wufan pushed the screen over, and Alyssa just wanted to see the picture clearly and leaned her head over, but her nose went through the screen, which scared her so much that she jumped backwards and hit the back of the chair.
“...... Makes you laugh. ”
Alyssa smiled awkwardly, but was quickly caught up in the screen.
...... this map!?
The more Alyssa looked at it, the more frightened she became, at first she couldn't confirm whether such a detailed map was real or fake, but she could recognize it by comparing the familiar terrain, and this map should not be fake.
"This map...... Can you sell it to me!?"
After a little hesitation, Alyssa was the first to ask the question.
"I'm fine, as long as you can make a copy of it. ”
Sun Wufan stretched out his finger and inserted it into the screen to stir, but it had no effect.
Alyssa looked at the half-scratched finger on her side of the screen and immediately came to her senses. Not to mention such a precious thing, it is impossible for the screen displayed by this magic to be maintained forever and allowed to be copied.
But what kind of magic is this? I've never heard of it, and I don't know if there's really a way to replicate it......
With a glimmer of hope, Alyssa looked at her royal magician, Lawrence, only to see him staring at him from the beginning.
Not to mention copying, he didn't even know the principle, he didn't even notice magic fluctuations, and he didn't have the ability to remember instantaneously.
(Even the teacher did that...... )
Alyssa shook her head in her heart, although it was rare for a king-level magician to show such an expression, it was not surprising that there was someone in this world who had something unique.
Retracting her other thoughts, Alyssa turned her attention to the map. Only then did I find out that there seemed to be something wrong with Sun Wufan's route.
"Commander, you may not know that your route is too dangerous! Although the terrain is very suitable for my carriage, there are several large groups of demonic beasts on the way. Although these groups of demonic beasts are not of high level, they are group activities, and they are extremely dangerous!!"
In fact, these social monsters are just a delicacy for some large monsters with thick skin, and those large monsters with thick skin and flesh are still better for humans. It's just that human beings are too fragile, even if they have fighting spirit, magic, and various equipment, they can't compare to those unique large demonic beasts, not to mention that not everyone has that kind of strength. So as far as humans are concerned, those social monsters are even more terrifying. Even some strong people who can single-handedly kill large demonic beasts are unwilling to face the group of demonic beasts, unless they can be wiped out all at once, otherwise they will be killed.
"Then tell me a route. ”
Sun Wufan directly pushed the problem to Alyssa, who was also embarrassed. She can only rely on the Earth Mercenary Group now, but the number of the other party is small, but Sun Wufan said that one car can't do so many people, and he actually sent the previous black and white magician away!
"Hurry up, it's almost time to eat. ”
“...... It's up to the head of the regiment. ”
At Sun Wufan's urging, Alyssa agreed, and she could only bet that the other party would not joke about their own safety. However, there is a king-level magician on her side, as long as she doesn't go too deep and adventurous, she should be able to break through the Elven Forest safely.
So, the group came to a fork in the road not far ahead. From here, you can take a detour into the trail and enter the Impossible Zone.
However, there was a fight at that very junction. What appears to be a robbery, with more than a dozen bodies lying around a wagon. I don't know who is with whom, but it can be seen that there is only a well-dressed Sailor Moon supporting the carriage, and the horse thieves around who are not good people are smiling lewdly. They seemed to want to keep her intact, so they didn't take it for a long time.
"There are robbers!?"
Avril was shocked, you must know that this place still belongs to the Great Dao, and in order to maintain order and drive away the demonic beasts, the official regularly sends people to patrol. Someone dares to rob here, either brain-dead or those well-known thieves. But the strength of the ones on the other side doesn't look so strong, is it a new debut thief or the kind that can't open the pot?
But no matter what, Avril couldn't let this kind of thing go, so she rushed over first, and the princess helped add a few buffs.
However, Sun Wufan and Ye Xiang looked weird, people in this world don't have the ability to sense qi, but the two of them have it! The aura of Sailor Moon who looks like he's going to be caught beep~ and then beep~ is very strong (relative to the robbers), and it's not a problem to clean up those robbers single-handedly.
"Is she unwell?"
Ye Xiang looked at Sun Wufan with questions, and the latter looked at him with an MDZZ on his face.
"You're a fool - no, an idiot?"
Uh- You don't have to say it so seriously, do you?
Ye Xiang looked aggrieved.
"You can't feel it when you're not feeling well?poisoned, injured, or coming to the eldest aunt, her breath must be different from normal, if you say you can't tell it now, I'll stuff you in the mental time room for a few years." ”
Hearing this, Ye Xiang shuddered. How many years to stay in that empty space?
Not to mention...... Sun Wufan looked at the Sailor Moon funny, her aura was a bit similar to that of the leader opposite, and she was eighty percent of the same family. It's just that this kind of subtle distinction is not something anyone can do, and there is no need for him to force Ye Xiang.
