At noon, the sun hung high overhead, radiating endless rays of heat that roasted the entire Loren world.

However, the Forest of the Dead, located in the south of the Dark Mountain Range, was still shrouded in a thick black fog, which looked strange and terrifying.

"Dash...... Da ...... Da ...... ......A cavalry squad of fifty or sixty men slowly marched east along the Aynasson River, the northernmost part of the Forest of the Dead.

They seem to have experienced very brutal battles in the Forest of the Dead, with many of them bandaged and many of them with broken armor and weapons.

"Wow......" A skeleton bird flew over the head of the cavalry squad, which seemed to frighten the cavalry squad, and the team stopped instantly, and everyone hurriedly picked up their weapons, looking at the skeleton bird that had already flown away with a look of fear, as if the small bird that was only the size of a fist would eat them all.

An old man in a green robe at the front of the team waved his hand to the team behind him and shouted in a low voice, "Don't panic, it's just a skeleton bird, keep going." ”

Amid the cacophony, the cavalrymen gathered their weapons and followed the group, continuing their slow march eastward.

Beside the old man, a young girl rode a rare white horse.

She was only about fifteen or sixteen years old, and wore a silver-white armor, but even so, the armor could not contain her graceful precocious figure.

She was very beautiful: short black hair, pure and capable, two black eyebrows like distant mountains, charming and charming, sky blue eyes, large, as if you could see her pure heart, a straight nose, cherry mouth, and pointed chin, so perfect that it seemed that the Creator had devoted all his energy to portraying her incomparable appearance.

She is so beautiful, this kind of beauty, is rare among Terran girls, her beauty can almost compete with the best beauties in the elf race, of course, she is not an ordinary Terran girl, she is one of the four newly selected beauties of the Terrans in the western continent, Livka Sagron, she is the daughter of the Grand Duke of the Griffin Kingdom, Lut Sagron.

The old man dressed as a magician beside Livka, named Warren, was her teacher and one of the few archmages in the Griffon Kingdom.

With the strength of the Great Warren Magister, he is also considered the number one powerhouse in the Western Continent, although he is not the kind of character who can walk sideways, but he is also a fierce character with full combat power.

However, when he arrived at the Forest of the Undead on the eastern continent, Warren knew that with the strength of his Great Magician, it was not enough to see here.

When they set out from the western continent, their cavalry team originally had more than 200 people, and after experiencing various tribulations at sea, there were only about 150 people left, and later after landing from the port of Lanaga, in the month of passing through the forest of the undead, they encountered many undead creatures that were impossible to see in the western continent, relying on the overall strength of the team, they barely survived the confrontation with the undead creatures, but the number of the team had been sharply reduced from one hundred and fifty to only fifty people.

They came here to find the strongest mage in the griffon kingdom, Sauron, the Forbidden Spell Mage.

Fifteen years ago, in order to find someone, the Sauron Forbidden Spell Mage left the griffon kingdom and went to the eastern continent, and has not been heard from since.

Recently, the Griffin Kingdom has been attacked by the Southern Orc Tribes and the Northern Templar Kingdom, and has been losing on the battlefield, although self-preservation is not a problem, but there is no power to fight back, and they need strong combat support.

So, they thought of Sauron, a forbidden spell mage, who could decide the outcome of a war, but they had lost contact with the legendary mage, so they sent a team to find him.

That team is the exhausted remnant of the defeated army in front of him, in fact, this team can be regarded as super strong, in addition to the water archmage Livka and the fire archmage Warren, there are also two elite-level noble children, the senior swordsman Downs and the earth senior magician Thornton.

Despite this, in the Forest of the Dead, they still understood the horrors of the Eastern Continent, and they also deeply understood that this journey to find the forbidden spell mage of Sauron would be a terrible experience, and if they could survive in the end, then their strength would definitely improve greatly.

The procession continued eastward, following a "road" paved with gravel as if it were not a road.

Livka took out a map from the spatial ring, unfolded it in front of her eyes, and carefully looked at it over and over again with the help of the midday sunlight that finally shone through the thick fog.

"Teacher," Livka asked in a frowning whisper as she turned to look at Warren on her left, "We've been walking east along the Ainasson River for a month, and according to the map, we should have walked out of the Forest of the Dead and reached Lake Ether, why are we still here now?"

The Great Warren Magus sighed, looked up at the sky, looked at the impermeable canopy, and replied in a low voice: "Princess, this map is a map from a hundred years ago, who knows what happened in the past hundred years, maybe even this map is fake, no one knows who drew this map." ”

After listening to what her teacher said, Livka silently put away the map, bowed her head and sighed.

Suddenly, there was a "da...... in the distance Da ...... The sound of horses' hooves .......

"Prepare for battle!" shouted the aristocratic young man Downs.

The cavalry set up a circular defensive formation in a panic.

Suddenly, a cavalryman pierced through the fog and appeared in view, and Downs, seeing that it was his own men, ordered the team to put away their defensive formation.

The cavalryman came to the front of the group and shouted to Warren with an excited face: "Warren Archmage, princess, walk forward for another hour, and we will be able to walk out of the forest of the dead, there is a hilly area outside the forest, and on the north side of the hill is a large lake with no end in sight, and to the south of the shore of the lake, there is a small town, which looks like a goblin town. ”

"Wow!" the knights who heard the Scout Cavalry's words all cheered, they had all had enough, they had enough of spending enough in this dark and damp rotten forest full of skeletons, zombies, and ghouls, they wanted to get out.

"Calm down, pack your bags, and don't go to town and let the goblins laugh at us. Thornton shouted, his tone full of aristocratic pride and the calmness of being a high-ranking magician.

"Roar!" it was as if some monster in the forest was alarmed by Thornton's shout, and first roared, and then erupted into bursts of undead magic fluctuations.

"Let's go!" Warren glared at Thornton and directed the group eastward, while he himself stayed at the back of the group, trying to cover the group.

Thornton, who knew he was in trouble, was left behind, and as a nobleman, he couldn't shirk his responsibility.

The roaring undead creatures did not chase after them, and the cavalry rushed safely out of the forest to the shore of an endless lake.

"Ahh

After a long time, when they regained their sight, they saw a crystal clear lake beside them, and the water of the lake fluctuated in the light of the midday sun.

They couldn't see the end of the lake, and they didn't see any islands on the lake.

Looking from afar, I saw that on the south shore of the lake, there was a small town, and the smoke of cooking was swaying in the wind over the town.

An hour later, the team was on the outside of the town.

They saw that the town was only five or six hundred meters in circumference, and that there were no defenses or walls outside the town, only a stream a few meters wide that was not considered a moat, and that the stream was topped with several wooden arch bridges.

Warren ordered the team to dismount, and then everyone led the horses into the town.

Entering the town, they saw that all the buildings in the town were goblin huts, and the round stone walls were surrounded by circles of metal roofs, many of which were rusty and green, and on top of the green roof, there was also a square metal smoke that was also green, and there were strange smoke of different colors coming out of different smoke punches.

There weren't many people on the streets of the town, most of them were orcs, undead creatures, centaurs, and goblins, and there wasn't a single human-like creature in sight.

The orcs, undead creatures, centaurs, and goblins in the town did not show any hostility when they saw this group of cavalry entering the town, they just glanced at the group of cavalry lightly, and they all went on with their own business.

Warren turned his head to look at the team behind him, and whispered: "Don't disperse, let's act collectively, we are new to the city, we don't know the situation here, first find a hotel to stay, rest for a few days, and then make the next plan." ”

The rest of the group nodded approvingly.

Suddenly, a goblin with rabbit ears, big eyes, a giant nose, green skin, and a half-human height, rubbing his hands together, jumped in front of Warren with a sneer, raised his head high, and said in a jerky continental language: "Hello everyone, I'm Luton, I'm your goblin friend, there is only one hotel in this town, I opened it, if you want to stay, then come with me." ”

Listening to Luton's words, Warren turned his head to look at the team, and after making eye contact, everyone reached a consensus, and then Warren looked down at Luton and said, "Okay, you lead the way." ”

After hearing this, a chrysanthemum-like smile bloomed on Luton's wrinkled face: "Okay, follow me." ”

With that, Luton scurried towards the town. Warren led the team to follow it.

After walking less than a hundred meters, they came to a small room, and Luton smiled and pointed to it.

Warren saw that this room was just a bungalow, one story high, and there were only two rooms in it at most, but there were more than fifty people in his team, how could more than fifty people be crammed into this hut.

Warren frowned, and said to Luton with some displeasure: "You're not kidding, I have so many people here, can you live in this room." ”

Luton was not angry, raised his head and smiled: "Don't be angry, wait, it'll be fine right away." ”

Warren didn't know what Luton was going to do, so he saw it jump into the hut, and then he saw the smoke from the roof rush up to the black smoke, and then the hut rumbled and trembled, and then the hut began to rise, and there was more and more floors, and finally there were more than ten floors, and the hut suddenly stood there like a mage's tower, and became a building.

Luton jumped out of the room and said to Warren with a smile again, "That's enough, please come in." ”

Warren raised his hand to stop the crowd who wanted to enter the house, lowered his head and asked, "What about the price, how much is it a day?"

Luton smiled and replied, "Although we goblins love money, we will not cheat you, one person has one silver coin a day, and you fifty people have a total of fifty silver coins a day." ”

Warren wanted to make a bargain, but he felt that this was someone else's territory, and the price was not too expensive, so it was best not to cause trouble, so he whispered: "Okay, thank you." ”

Hearing Warren's reply, Ruton's face bloomed with a chrysanthemum-like smile again, and he replied, "You're welcome, please come in." ”

With the exception of Warren, Livka, Thornton, and Downs, everyone followed a small goblin called out by Luton into the "Tower", and the horses were placed in the backyard.

Luton looked at the four people who were still standing outside the tower and asked Warren in a low voice, "Do you have anything else?"

Warren glanced at the three young men beside him, bowed his head and said to Luton, "Is there an alchemist here, we need to buy some magic potions and wound potions, preferably high-level alchemists." ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Luton rubbed his big green hand covered with black hair again, and thought that there was another business coming, and replied happily: "There is only one alchemist in the town, and it is a high-level alchemist, he is my uncle Rui, his shop is over there, you come with me." ”

With that, Luton jumped towards the north of the town.

Warren turned to Downs and Thornton and said, "You guys watch the children here, the princess and I go buy some wound medicine, be careful." ”

Downs and Thornton glanced at each other, nodded slightly, and after answering "yes", they entered the hotel.

Seeing Downs and Thornton enter the hotel, Warren took Livka to a goblin hut only a hundred meters away from the hotel, and the two followed Luton into the house.

When he entered the hut, he heard Luton shout loudly, "Uncle!

Before he finished speaking, he heard a voice as cold as metal rubbing and replied, "Your uncle is not ......"
