Chapter 153: Miradaya
The Lost Forest looks particularly beautiful from a distance in the early morning after the rain, and the rain washes out the sky more thoroughly, and also makes each layer of vegetation more dazzling. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info in the hot forest, the water accumulated on the ground after the rain turned into a curling white mist under the scorching temperature, with the hazy upward transpiration of the air current, so that the vision in the forest is far more blurred than in the previous days, however, the small animals have long adapted to such an environment, the fog is the best cover for the weak, under the cover of the fog, the inhabitants of these shrubs and grasses happily swim in their own world, accumulating food for the days until the next heavy rain. Between the foliage, birds chirp loudly on the branches, and the crisp birdsong is connected, adding a bit of vitality to the hot and humid forest.
This is the foot of the Lost Mountain of the Ocaine Mountains, and it is also the border between the Lost Forest and the Forest of Death, the towering Ocaine Mountains lie between the forests, forcibly dividing a forest into two halves, and the barrier of the mountains makes it difficult for the demonic beasts in the forests on both sides to circulate, so it is obviously a forest, but it seems to be like two worlds.
In this forest, a strange tree can be seen, they look very much like the World Tree, the crown is broad, the aerial roots are dense, and the trunk is thick, but the height is much shorter, and the highest is only twenty or thirty meters. The canopy of these trees covers a large area, and each tree has a huge space of tens or even hundreds of square meters under the canopy, and air roots hang down in this space, like pillars supporting the heavy canopy. This unique plant in the Dead Forest is called Miradaya by the elves, which is the pronunciation of the ancient elves, and if translated into the lingua franca, it probably means something similar to safety and shelter. The biggest feature of Miradaya is that there will never be insects, their sap is highly poisonous to insects, and no insect in the Forest of Death will be close to Miradaya within 100 meters, so each Miradaya is a perfect shelter for elves, as long as it is within the coverage of Miradaya, then from the ground to the treetops, it is the best habitat.
However, this Miradaya tree looks a little strange at the moment, the vines that the elves like to use the most, spiraling and growing along the outermost aerial roots of Miradaya, weaving a web of vines the size of a fist, the top of the vine web is connected to the canopy, and the bottom has been rooted in the earth, like an outer wall, enclosing the huge space covered under the canopy, forming a semi-man-made house. Professionals who often venture in the Lost Forest know that this is the most complete posture for the elves to use Miradaya, and generally when there are only a few people, just find a few aerial roots to make a skeleton and weave a net, and only when a large group acts, will it be like now, and use all the canopies.
It stands to reason that in the vine house, the ground should be made of dead leaves to form soft beds with the same number of people, covered with Katak hides, to make comfortable beds, and the characteristics of Miradaya make its shelter the only place in the Death Forest that dares to use the dead leaves on the ground, making life in the forest as comfortable as at home. However, there was no bed of fallen leaves in this vine house, and the fallen leaves on the ground had not even been cleaned much, so it did not look like it was inhabited at all. However, between the air roots, there are more than a dozen large green cocoons, the large cocoons are conical with a width at the bottom and narrow at the top, and if you look closely, they are actually single tents hanging from the canopy.
With a "tearing" sound, a large green cocoon was pulled away from the side, and Her Majesty's delicate face was exposed from the tent, Her Majesty's long green hair was unkempt and unkempt, and her long skirt was slightly messy, and her half-asleep eyes were blurry and hazy, and there were a few shallow indentations on one side of her face, which looked charming.
"It's time for everyone to get up. Vral jumped off the ground, his voice languid as if in a dream: "It's time to officially enter the adventure stage today, get up early and get ready." ”
There were several tearing sounds, and several tents hanging in the air were torn open, and the girls of the adventure group jumped out of the tents one by one. If you look closely, you can see that the outside of these tents is simply made of leaves, and the inside seems to be made of a special material to ensure that the tents will not be deformed. After each use, the leaves are directly torn apart to disassemble and recycle the skeleton, which is extremely convenient to apply in the forest.
"What's wrong with you?" Catherine turned around and helped Lina, who was unsteady in her steps, and when the priest girl jumped out of the tent, she was only a few meters high, and she almost fell: "Did you sleep in it with numb legs, or did you not sleep well last night?
"Actually, it's not a big deal, just take it slowly. Lina pressed her forehead and said distressedly: "Sister, you know my weakness, I'm a little seasick." ”
"Uh, I see. Thinking of last night in the suspended tent, the tent would shake slightly with the slightest movement of her body, much like the feeling of sailing on the water against the waves, the knight girl rubbed Lina's bald head that had some stubble, and snickered: "It's pitiful, then you can close your eyes and rest for a while." ”
"I know, it's just dizzy. Lina staggered over to a stump and sat down, leaned on her lap, and asked in a muffled voice, "What about Pennis, why haven't you come out yet?" ”
"Pannis, get up. Catherine also noticed the problem, and cried out, "All have risen, and you are the only one left." ”
"I'm recuperating from my injuries. Pannis hid in his tent, his voice full of resentment: "I have pain all over my body, I can't get up." ”
"Poof. Catherine couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, coaxing him and said, "Come down, I'm sorry, who made what you did yesterday so annoying, okay, okay, don't make a fuss, we'll be light next time." ”
"Hmph, I'm still thinking about next time. Pannis muttered and jumped off the ground, and although he said it miserably, he didn't actually feel any scars or discomfort on his body.
"This is the border, and if you go forward five hundred meters, you will officially enter the confines of the Lost Mountain, and you will also enter the Forest of Death. Vral said solemnly: "So you better check again, today will not be as leisurely as before." Also, Mother, go back with the royal guards, and leave twenty men to stand guard in this Miradaya, waiting for us to return. ”
"I see. When it comes to serious things, although Aika is still dumbfounded, at least she won't deliberately make trouble: "Is twenty people enough?"
"Enough. Vral nodded and said, "Alright, let's move, let's set off in an hour, the goal, the Lost Mountain." (To be continued.) )
