"Captain, I feel a little uneasy, you see, there is not even the sound of birds chirping in the forest. ”

After discovering the outpost where the path was discovered, the scout team took the outpost as the center point and spread out to the surrounding area, carefully probing the surrounding qiē, and of course not ignoring the forest below the outpost.

"I think it's a little strange, but the plants here haven't been damaged in any way, there's not even a sign of a fight, if there's something terrifying to the beasts here, why haven't we found it? If not, how can we explain the current situation?" Ryan said to his subordinates as he looked at his surroundings vigilantly.

"Huh?" What about the men?

Ryan paused for a long time, but he didn't see his men answer, which was not right.

He turned around, and his men were gone, empty, and the quiet forest was nothing but trees.

It's shocking.

Ryan swallowed a mouthful of spit, wanting to move but not daring, wanting to retreat, but not knowing how to retreat.

A mysterious creature that can appear silently around him and forcibly snatch his companions, but he is unaware of such a thing, he doesn't even hear the slightest sound, and his companions don't make a sound, such an enemy is not something he can deal with.

Ryan listened attentively, but did not notice any unusual sound, and at this time, he didn't care so much, and moved quickly towards the position of the outpost, hiding behind the tree ● ∈ wood.

"Sir, the Scout Team Leader and one of the team members are missing. ”

At the Copper Mine, a ranger reports to Nat about the situation.

"Huh, not seen at the outpost?" asked Nat with an eyebrow raised.

"It's not. He disappeared while reconnoitring the surroundings after discovering the outpost. The two of them were tasked with reconnoitring the forest at the foot of the mountain. ”

Nat took a deep breath, and this was a problem: "It's not in the forest? Does that mean there's something going on in the forest?"

"I think so. Mr.

We later organized people to go into the forest, and in the druids we used "man and nature" to communicate with the forest, but none of our friends told us about the abnormal situation.

It's so startling that we don't know anything about forests now, which is not the same as it used to be. ”

The Ranger stated his point that the forest has always been the home of the Ranger and the Druids, especially the Ranger and Druids of the Forest Goddess, where they are like fish in the water. The birds of heaven are not hindered by any abnormalities in the forest.

"Set up a trap near the outpost, and go out in groups of at least three people except for everyone, and have someone write a letter and send it back to Sù Adès, Bernie, and call Bernie in. ”

Nat thought about it for a while, and then issued orders in succession, which was too puzzling. Even who the enemy is is still unknown.

Soon, Bernie walked in, he had done a good job on the volcanic island, and this time Evis and the others went back. After taking over the affairs of the volcanic island, Adès appointed him to manage the copper mines with Nat. In particular, he emphasized that he must do a good job of defense, and Ades was also afraid that the demons would really fight from the north to the south.

"Bernie. You guard here, I'll take a look at the outpost I found. Find out what the hell is playing tricks. ”

"Teacher, you still guard here, I'll go. ”

"You are a ranger, what can you do there? Now you are searching for enemies in the forest, not to fight, and besides, you can beat me in battle?"

Nat mercilessly rejects Bernie's offer, and taunts him in the way.

Bernie was silent, what the teacher said made him unable to refute, his strength could not keep up with Nath, could not keep up with Ades, Mia, Yunnie, Evis, these people are now higher in combat power than him.

"You're in the Copper Mine, you are not allowed to go there, and after all this time of training, Adès told me that your talent for managing affairs is even stronger than your talent for combat, and in this respect you are very similar to Lord Cardinal. ”

Nat saw that his disciple seemed to have been hit by himself, so he comforted him from the side.

Bernie could only nod his head in agreement, but as a man, he had a fighting heart.

Black Iron Port, Viscount's Mansion Study.

"Ades, Mr. Nat has a letter saying that there is indeed an enemy in the forest over there, but so far, we don't know who the enemy is or what it is, and the scout team sent before has already lost two people. ”

Adès looked up at Anna with the parchment in her hand, and after a moment asked, "Who is missing?"

"Ryan, the captain of the scout team, you were a very optimistic ranger before. ”

Ades was silent, paused for a long time before saying: "Don't announce it to the public first, even if you are dead, you must see the corpse, at least you must know what killed him." ”

"Why don't I go over?" said Anna in a whisper.

"What are you going to do? You are a paladin going into the forest, are you going to cut wood?"

Adès refused without even thinking about it.

"Write to Evan and ask her how the situation is on her side, and if the situation on the volcanic island is stable, let her bring someone over there, and call Mia and Winnie over. ”

Anna pursed the corners of her mouth, didn't squeak, took a pen and paper to record the order, and suddenly said: "What if Evan transfers all the people and something happens to the volcanic island?"

"Then call Ward over, and if it doesn't work, call Nancy to sit in the magical chamber on the volcanic island. ”

"Then you might as well call Uncle Hunter. ”

Now Anna and Molly are following Ades's example, calling Hunter an uncle.

"Uncle Hunter wants to watch Ambo, I don't want to set myself on fire, if something happens to Ambo, someone has to deal with it. ”

"Oh, then I'm going to deliver the message. "Anna is now submissive by Adès, don't look at her as a paladin, in fact, her personality is similar to that of Evis, she is quite gentle.

"Don't do it yet, how much combat power can the Black Iron Port draw now?"

Anna recalled for a moment, and then said to Adès: "Without affecting the Black Iron Port, the city defense army can draw one hundred and fifty people, and the guards are about fifty people." ”

Ades frowned, thinking that there were still few people.

Seeing his expression, Anna explained: "Although some people have recently migrated from Ambo, and some slaves have been bought in Beruye and Delchimo, there are also more people assigned to Volcanic Island and Barony Borden, and some have been allocated to copper mines, so I really can't get people." ”

Ades smiled at Anna and said, "I don't blame you, I just think it's quite difficult to expand the army, and those people don't say that they can use it after a few months of training, so it's just a little melancholy." ”

"Recruit more teams of adventurers to deal with, and when the local adventurers are finished, then go to Beluye to find them." ”

Molly, who had just walked in from outside the door, said to everyone.

Ades nodded: "That's all it takes, in the end, time waits for no one." (To be continued......)
