Chapter 5: Aurora Forest 01

It is a red decay and emerald reduction

In front of the warm fire, Antinomi and Xi Xiangyu ate a few snow rabbits they had hunted with dry food. After preserving the remaining raw rabbit meat, one person and one cat lay lazily in the shelter.

"Ah, it's so satisfying, it would be perfect if I had another bowl of soup. 」

"I still want to eat, three bread cakes and two rabbits, if I hadn't been with you all the time, I would have thought you hadn't eaten for a few days." 』

Antinomi, who had only eaten two rabbit legs, was very resentful of this.

"I've been growing up lately, so I should eat more to supplement my body's nutrition, and I've been eating more and more recently. 」

This night is the full moon, and when I see the three full moons hanging high in the sky, I am reminded of the fact that the acquired beast will involuntarily transform when the moon is full.

"Speaking of which, after transforming into a tiger man, my body will be several times larger, and my height and weight will also increase significantly......

He weighed himself once after his second active transformation into a tiger man, when he gained more than a hundred pounds in one go. I didn't notice anything at the time, but now that I think about it.

"It's understandable that the height gain came from, where did the sudden increase of more than 100 pounds of meat come from?

Thinking of this, he hurriedly asked Antinomi.

"Actually, the transformation effect of magic and the transformation effect of the druid can also change the weight, but the principle is ...... I don't know. 』

"It doesn't make any sense!"

A man and a cat looked at each other for a long time.

"It doesn't make sense. 」』

"Don't worry too much about these details, according to you, this is a magical world, and nothing is impossible. So it's still the most important thing to be happy, you see, the moonlight is so beautiful tonight. 』

Antinomi threw out the universal answer that the wizarding world is unreasonable, and when he thought about it, it was really such a thing, and instead of dwelling on these questions, it was better to keep them and explore them later when he had the opportunity.

"yes, the moonlight is beautiful. There is only one moon on Earth, and the three moons here are also incredible. 」

"Yes, yes. 』

Antinomi's tone was a little lost, as if he wasn't quite satisfied with the answer he had just answered.

"Happy to meet, the moonlight is so beautiful. 』

"Didn't you just say that?"

Antinomi's tone was tinged with anger.

"I mean, the moonlight is so beautiful tonight!"

Antinomi repeated three times to emphasize that the moonlight was very beautiful, which made the happy meeting feel very puzzled, but no matter how much he thought about it, he didn't know what it wanted to express.

"It's beautiful...... Say something important three times?"

"No matter!

Taking advantage of the happy meeting to wander away, Antinomi ran into the darkness in an instant with the snow rabbit he had saved, and in a hurry, he didn't even notice what Antinomi had done.

"I'm so moody, it's still a cat...... Hey, where's my reserve?"

..............................

The Atlas Full Moon lasts for three days, then disappears for a few hours, followed by a half-month dark night.

Although Xixiang preferred to rush under the moonlight, he had to give up because he had no time.

In the often dark polar wilderness, there is hardly a glimmer of light, only a few stars dotting the empty night sky.

"It's incredible, I thought it would take a few years of work after graduating from college to make up the money for polar tourism, but I didn't expect to come back to the polar regions of the other world in this form. 」

Using the newly awakened dark vision, Xi Xiangyu walked in the dark for three days before reaching his destination, the Aurora Forest.

Even though it is located in the polar regions, this forest is still not withering, but is growing happily, and I am afraid that anyone who comes here will be amazed by the magic of nature and the power of the Ivy League.

But in the eyes of the true druid, the forest is dying.

"The book says that the Aurora Forest's frostleaf trees reflect an aurora-like view at night when light shines on them during non-hibernation, but these leaves look lifeless and don't reflect the light of torches. 」

The Aurora Forest is a specialty of the Northland Wind Helmet City, and every night it will be as colorful as the Aurora falling to the ground, and many people from all over the world come to visit it every year, contributing a very high GDP to the Wind Helmet City. Although every year there are attempts to transplant frostleaf trees to the south, no one has ever succeeded. However, the Frostleaf Tree, which has been artificially awakened from hibernation, has lost this trait, and if it is allowed to continue to weaken and die, it will probably be a loss to both the academic community and the Wind Helmet City - after all, there is only one Frostleaf Tree with the reputation of "Aurora".

"I don't believe the people of Stormhelm didn't notice this, what the hell are they thinking?

Extinguishing the torches, Joy begins to explore the forest, trying to find a means for ivy to awaken the entire forest from hibernation.

"Speaking of which, have you noticed that there are almost no dangers along the way? Beasts, bandits, and monsters in the Northland are everywhere, but at least a few times you will inevitably encounter them, but our journey is too peaceful. 』

From the academy to Windhelm City to the Aurora Forest, Antinomi felt a little strange that he had never encountered any danger except for a temptation from the Ivy League.

"It's because I'm using my instincts to avoid trouble, and I'm walking in the dark with my torch so that the light doesn't attract anything that isn't afraid of fire. 」

Happy encounters are not a war system, and there is no need to improve your strength by fighting. As a druid, he only needs to increase his contact and understanding of nature to be promoted.

"I'm just a kid, and it's too inhuman for me to fight. Besides, I don't think violence will solve the problem...... I prefer to position myself as an investigator, the kind of person who is able to get valuable first-hand information in any situation. No matter what era or world you are in, intelligence is always the top priority. Then the highly skilled profession of investigator is naturally the perfect job with low risk, high income and high treatment for me. As for self-defense...... It is enough to have a hand crossbow. 」

And the light crossbow root is used for hunting just in case, and from an economic point of view, 1 gold coin and 10 arrows should not be used in useless battles at all.

"But now it's different, and I feel like there are a few places in this forest that are guarded. Those places should be the direction I'm going to investigate, let's go to the gym. 」

"Wait, since there's a prophetic priest in that organization who is targeting you, you should be more cautious about investigating instead of swaggering over like you are now. 』

According to Antinomi's reasoning, since some of the enemies have already begun to target the happy encounter, there is a high chance that they will set a trap where the happy encounter must pass, and even the information of this forest may only be a trap. Then you should be careful to deal with it at this time.

"I already knew and began to prepare, and this is the second round of temptation from the enemy. Remember, all my actions are based on the premise that the enemy already knows my plans and responds before I do. 」

There are prophets among the enemies, and the presence of the prophets will bring unpredictable variables to the plans of the happy meeting, and all plans will be interfered with because of the prophecies of the enemy.

"If there are variables, then substitute the variables into the equation during the calculation and eventually eliminate them, which is called the constant adaptation to all changes. Next, it's time for the battle between our stick and the enemy's stick. 」

Today, in order to obtain valuable first-hand information under the interference of the enemy, Xixiangyu finally has to start fighting.

Listen to it......
