readx;? Throughout the continent's history, there are countless legends about the Forest of the Dead. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Most of the info are just stories about lulling children to sleep, such as "The Yarman Forest is full of devils, and if you don't sleep, the devils will come out of the forest and take you away".

Only hunters and merchants know what makes the Forest of Death terrifying. There are no devils in the Forest of Death, but there are dragons that are more feared than demons.

"I've seen the distribution of dragon species on the mainland, and the author calls the Yarman Forest the home of dragons. ”

At night, Dennis sat by the campfire and Ian, who was lying on the ground and had not yet fallen asleep, said this.

"The homeland of dragons, isn't the Arman Forest the homeland of the elves? ”

"yes. Dennis nodded, "So the author's name has never been recognized by others, but it is undeniable that there is probably no other place on this continent that has more dragons than the Yarman Forest." There may be, but at least no one has found out yet. ”

"It is said that the travels of the hall hunters and merchants are all over the continent, but in fact the places known to mankind are very limited. ”

Ian could tell it wasn't Dennis's voice, and he turned his head to find Harry looking at them with his eyes open. Seeing that Ian had come over, he asked a little embarrassedly, "I can't sleep either, can I join you?"

"Of course. "Dennis," Ian and I can only see things from the perspective of hunters, and you're a merchant in the hall, so you may not see things from the same perspective as we do. ”

Harry said thank you and rolled over and sat down. The forest at night is a little chilly, and the sound of birdsong can be heard from time to time in the forest, intermittently. Harry wrapped his coat around his body to keep out the cold, and his breath condensed into a white mist in an instant.

"It's starting to change. "It's almost late autumn, and now we're heading north, and it's going to get colder." ”

Ian asked, "Have you been here?"

Harry replied, "No, not my teacher. He and I went into the Mississippy Jungle a few times, but we were all on the periphery, and we didn't dare to go too deep inside. Because we don't have any hunters there, it's hard for a merchant to keep himself safe without them. Even if we know more about the jungle, we are still a little helpless when we encounter danger, so I actually envy you. ”

"Envy us?"

"Well, at least you can protect yourself, and you can protect your companions. "And I can't, when I'm in danger, it's like that python, I can only watch it eat me, there's nothing I can do." ”

As he spoke, Harry shuddered, and the experience left an indelible scar on his heart.

"There's no need to think like that, everyone has a different division of labor. Dennis shook his head and said, "Once upon a time, when humans were still used as food in captivity by dragons, the role of merchants was far greater than that of hunters, because they could distinguish what was edible and what was used to heal diseases, and hunters were used to send them to death. ”

Ian had never heard of this history.

"I know, so I don't regret being a merchant in the hall either. Harry smiled shyly, showing a mouthful of white teeth, "If I weren't a merchant, I wouldn't be sitting with the top hunters in the hall right now." ”

A passage from Harry brings him closer to Ian and Dennis. No one doesn't like to be complimented on themselves, so even Dennis has a smile on his face. In fact, he was right, not a sycophant, because here Ian is a high-level hunter, and Dennis can be regarded as a half-high-level hunter. Even Tellmis's King-Slayer team was led by only three high-level hunters.

"Let's continue with the question. Dennis asked, "The Yarman Forest is called the Forest of Death, and the author of the dragon species distribution on the continent calls it the home of the dragons, do you have any special names among your merchants?"

It's all small talk.

"Is the Human Exclusion Zone?" said Harry with a smile, "In fact, the merchants will refer to the extremely dangerous places as the Human Exclusion Zone, and this name has also been passed down from the merchants. ”

It turned out that the term human forbidden area had been passed down from the mouths of the merchants in the hall, and Ian said that it had really increased his knowledge. He'd heard the term many times, but he didn't know where it came from.

"Although the Yarman Forest is known as a forbidden area for humans, the treasures contained within it are also extremely precious to the merchants of the Hall. Harry said, "You hunters are different from us merchants, you care about dragons and beasts, we care about some precious medicinal herbs, or some rare ores. These things can often be sold for a very high price, and many merchants only need to take a risk once to find some of these things, and they can have no worries about food and clothing. ”

"Taking a risk?"

"Well, let's say the human exclusion zone. Harry nodded and said, "As I said, the term was first circulated among merchants, and its original meaning was to tell the other merchants that this place was dangerous and should be forbidden, and to warn the rest of the merchants not to enter for the purpose of exploring. But over time, the meaning of this term is different, merchants will run to the forbidden area of mankind, in order to gain huge wealth, but ordinary people are frightened by this word, and spread falsehoods, and the spread is more and more terrifying, so that words like devil come out. ”

"So, according to you, the Yarman Forest is also known as a forbidden area for humans, so why aren't there any merchants going in and venturing in?" Ian asked, "Didn't you say how much treasure the forest has. ”

"Who said no businessmen would take risks, wasn't that team from six years ago?" asked Harry rhetorically.

Ian was stunned: "Six years ago?"

"Well, wasn't that team from six years ago a gathering of seven hall merchants? One of them was a friend of my teacher. Harry glanced back to make sure that Colby was asleep, then turned his head and continued, "Although merchants love money, they will not blindly lose their lives, and everyone knows the danger of the Yarman Forest, so even if they want money, they dare not go in alone." So when they learned that a team of hunters would be formed in the hall, they would all volunteer to be the guides of the team, otherwise, there would not be seven merchants, and if they showed the way, wouldn't it be nice to have one or two people?"

Ian and Dennis looked at each other, obviously neither of them expecting that the seven merchants would come this way. But in the end they got nothing, and the seven merchants, along with the hunters, died at the hands of the Wind King, which must be said to be a bit of a mockery.
