On the morning of the second day, after breakfast, a group set out from Fergus Castle and headed for the black earth forest.

Gray, Bernal, and Ellis rode in front of the team, leading the way.

Protected by armoured soldiers and uniformed guards, there is a two-horse carriage from the Sidney family, in which Polly, Master Duru, Caroline, and Sarah are seated.

Viscount Fergus was not among them, and he strongly suggested that he take Master Duru and Polly there, but Porly refused with "not wanting to trouble Viscount too much", and finally the Gray siblings were sent to lead the way.

Of course, this didn't include Sarah, who had never been to the Black Soil Forest before, and this time he begged to go because he heard that there was something fun.

"Sister Poli, you're so nice!"

Originally, Gray and the others disagreed, after all, she had not yet cultivated the blood method and had no ability to protect herself, but in the end, it was the marquis's daughter Poli who overrode the public opinion and brought her.

"Okay, you must listen to my arrangement, don't walk around at will, otherwise, I can only let you stay in the carriage all the time!"

Maybe it's the youngest in the family, and he hasn't been able to enjoy the treatment of his sister, and he was immediately defeated by Sarah's call from Sister Polly and brought this oil bottle.

"Well, I know, Sister Polly."

Sarah nodded one after another, but her eyes were already looking out of the carriage, and her eyes flashed with excitement.

At the front of the group, Gray rode on a red-blooded horse, leading the way as he looked at the eight Sidney guards in white uniforms.

Horses ridden by eight people, although not comparable to red blood horses, are definitely a rare breed of fine horses.

The movement was all around the carriage, protecting the carriage in the middle, and the movements were extremely coordinated, and even the steps of the horses were very consistent, and it was obvious that they were definitely trained very professionally.

And the reason Gray paid attention to a few people was not because of their uniform way of marching, but because of their strength.

The clothes on the eight people are obviously a grade higher than that of ordinary soldiers, and they also have a fierce temperament that ordinary soldiers do not have, if Gray expects it to be good, the eight people should all be people who have practiced blood methods, and their strength should not be too bad.

Especially the first one, a middle-aged man with a white face and beard, always expressionless, but a pair of eyes flashed sharply from time to time when they were on guard to look around.

Being watched by the other party, Gray actually had a feeling of being cold and extremely dangerous, and this person's strength was at least a fierce blood warrior, and maybe even more than that.

After more than an hour, the team came to the outside of the black soil forest.

The carriage could no longer move forward, and Master Duru, Poli, and the others stepped out of the carriage and, under the protection of the guards and soldiers, began to walk towards the Black Forest on foot.

Knowing that they needed to hike, Polly, Caroline, and Sarah were wearing long coats, trousers, and flat boots, which would not affect their movements.

"Wow, Sister Caroline, what kind of flower is this? It's beautiful! ”

"Sister Poli, do you see the leaves of this tree, round, like coins?"

……

At first, the salad was in high spirits, looking left and right, everything was extremely new in her eyes, but after a long time, her face began to turn bitter.

The forest terrain is much more difficult to walk than the flat land, and it takes more than half an hour to walk, where has this girl experienced before? Immediately like pickled eggplant.

In desperation, Gray had to carry her on her back, the little girl was 1.5 meters tall and weighed just over 80 pounds, with Gray's current physical fitness, it was naturally not troublesome.

More than an hour later, a wooden house appeared in the field of vision of Gray and the others, which was the former residence of the wanted criminal, McCarthy Thompson.

There were ordinary soldiers in the team, and the speed of the march was not very fast, so it took more than an hour to arrive.

"This is the house?"

After examining the room, Master Duru pushed open the door without hesitation and walked in.

Then his eyes stopped at the bottles and cans on the long table in the wooden house, and picked them up and watched them one after another, especially the ones with residues in them, and watched them carefully, not knowing what the other party was looking for?

"What is Master Duru looking for? We've searched this room last time, and we haven't found anything related to alchemy, except for the manuscript and a few bottles of potions. ”

Caroline wondered.

"There are no specific refining steps in the manuscript, and the teacher wants to deduce the order and treatment of the medicinal materials for the control of veterinary drugs through the residues on these containers, which will save a lot of derivation time."

Polly explained.

Everyone nodded suddenly, they didn't expect this Master Duru to have such a means, no wonder they had to ask them to bring him here.

In order not to disturb Master Duru, everyone dispersed, and their eyes wandered around the room.

Gray's eyes swept over the furniture in the room, his brow furrowed slightly.

"Gray, did you find anything?"

Gray's slight movement was noticed by Polly, but she had been observing Gray, and she had some curiosity about this viscount who was only a little less talented than her eldest brother.

"Someone has been here since we left."

Gray spoke up.

"Has anyone been here?"

There was some suspicion in Polly's voice, unclear on the basis of Gray's judgment.

"The room did come before, because the furniture in the room had been touched."

Bernal also noticed this, and after a slight pause, he expressed his guess.

"There are a few villages around here, and I think it's likely that a nearby hunter has visited!"

This speculation is indeed very reasonable, and everyone did not continue to delve into this issue, and continued to wait for Master Dulu.

There was nothing of value in this room, they had already rummaged through it the last time they came, and they could return when Master Duru had studied the jars and jars.

"Interesting handling, genius thinking."

After a short moment, Master Duru seemed to have discovered something, and said to himself.

"McCarthy Thompson, it's a pity ......"

"With this guy's talent for alchemy, it is not impossible to become a master of alchemy in the future, but it's a pity that he has to touch the taboo......"

After talking to himself, he looked away from the jars and looked at Polly.

"Girl, I already have some ideas for refining the beast control potion, and I am going to restore it as soon as possible, I estimate that I will stay here for a few days, will you return to Sidney Castle first, or wait for me for a few days and return with me?"

"Then I'll stay here for a few days, and then I'll go back with the teacher, and I'll take a look at those biographies by the way."

Polly smiled slightly, and then looked at Bernal, Gray and the others.

"I'm sorry, my teacher and I probably have been messing around at Fergus Castle for a while!"

"It's our pleasure!"

Bernal said with a slight smile.

Both Master Durroux and Polly have a very high status in the Sidney family, and if they can make friends with these two, it will obviously be extremely beneficial to the Fergus family.

Not to mention anything else, if you can have a friendship with this Master Duru and sell them some extra potions, then the Fergus family will make a lot of money.
