Chapter 17: Scorch

After the pursuit of the three savages, Morey and the others became more cautious, the previous spear throwing left a deep impression on them, Rao is as strong as Carlos, the moment the spear is in the left arm is directly paralyzed, if it is to Morey, I am afraid that even if there is not one more hole, I will have to be poisoned on the spot and lose the ability to resist.

At this time, Morey finally had time to look at the map that Claire had left behind, which was obviously much more detailed than Morey's. This area of the Savages is marked with a conspicuous red circle, which obviously means that it is very dangerous, and it means that you should not wander around if you have nothing to do.

Obviously, if it weren't for the plan to take a shortcut, Claire wouldn't have ended up like this. But then again, with his physical condition, he can't last long, and if he takes a detour, it will be more dangerous, and I'm afraid it may not be better than taking a shortcut.

It's just that the more Morey looks at this map, the more strange he feels, Carlos accidentally sees Morey's expression, and can't help but ask suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

"The area covered by the red zone extends to the edge of the Monster Forest, very close to the town of Egger, shouldn't it be, if that's the case, I'm afraid the townspeople of Egger are basically neighbors with the wildlings, this is impossible!" Morey couldn't imagine that someone would build the town in such a dangerous place - wouldn't they be afraid that the wildlings would sweep with spears on their shoulders!

Morey can't accept it.

But the facts are in front of you, the edge of the area where the wild people live is probably less than thirty kilometers away from the town of Egger!

Judging from the map, if the people of Egger wanted to, they might have set out in the morning and have dinner in the night at the Wildling tribe - if they weren't considered dinner.

"We've come this far. Carlos's words were simple, but Morey couldn't argue with them.

As it darkened, Morey sighed, glanced at Carlos, and began to get ready to find a tree to sleep on. The Warcraft Forest in the dark night is definitely the most dangerous place, and even the most experienced mercenaries will not rush lightly at night, let alone Morey. At night, all kinds of powerful nocturnal monsters will appear to forage for food, especially feline monsters, which are all synonymous with danger. Since he had been running for his life, Morey was not in the mood to get some cooked food to eat, so he and Carlos simply found a few wild fruit generals, after all, life may leave traces for the wild people to track.

Morey and Carlos couldn't figure out why the wildlings were able to find them.

At the same time, where they had touched the three savages, a cluster of bushes suddenly trembled. A boy who looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old cautiously came out of it, and was relieved when he looked around to make sure there was no danger.

"Ah, I'm scared to death," said the young man, who was dark-skinned and looked like a savage. But if Morey is here, I'm afraid I'm going to be shocked, because he speaks standard continental!

"I was almost discovered by those guys from the mountain tribe, and I was lured away by a few outsiders. ”

However, although this young man looks like a savage, he is wearing leather clothes and leather pants, although it is also very simple, but it is different from the wild taste of those savages before, the primitive is primitive, but it does have traces of civilization.

"I've been squatting for an afternoon and no one has come back, it seems that there should be no danger, I didn't expect that I wouldn't die like this, I'm really lucky, I don't know what happened to those outsiders, I'm sorry, you can ask for more blessings!" The young man muttered to himself, but after all, he shook his head and ran away in one direction. His skills are still very athletic in the complex terrain of the forest, which is indeed the characteristic of a savage.

Obviously, the three savages came to the vicinity to chase and kill the boy, but they happened to be bumped into by Morey and the others, and they were unlucky for him. If Morey saw this, he would definitely jump in anger, but now he still thinks about it in the tree.

Morey and Carlos chose a tree that was called a pot by the mercenaries. The name is shocking, but unfortunately it is indeed very apt, this kind of tree is indeed a comprehensive expression of these three words.

In the books, Morey saw that the scientific name of this tree is the green umbrella tree, the crown of the tree is very dense, and the branches of the tree will automatically spread out in all directions after growing to a certain height, so it presents a somewhat concave platform shape. The most important thing is that this tree has a very pungent smell, and the sensitive nose of the beast is doubly unbearable, so it is generally not close to the place where the umbrella tree grows.

In addition, the branches and foliage of this tree are so dense that the inside of the canopy is tightly shaded, and it is difficult to see the scene inside the canopy even if you pass by from the outside. This small platform has become one of the few safe places in the forest, after all, who will be idle to climb the tree and pull the leaves to play, even if the monster does not have to go to work.

On the whole, the actual effect of this green umbrella tree and a huge basin is not much worse. Of course, this stench is not acceptable to humans, and when they first climbed the green umbrella tree, Morey and Carlos frowned, but now they are used to it, after all, safety is the most important thing in the Warcraft Forest. In the depths of the Demonic Beast Forest, there is no shortage of high-level Demonic Beasts above the fourth order, even if it is the fifth or sixth order, it does not mean that there are none. Fortunately, such monsters are not very common, and unfortunately just one is enough to make people be heroes again after eighteen years.

Especially when resting, people's vigilance will be greatly reduced, even if it is just a third-order demonic beast, it is enough to make people die unclear, so although the pot green tastes disgusting, it has to be said that it is a good place.

When night fell, Morey didn't sleep, in fact, with his mental condition, he didn't need much sleep, and sometimes meditating all night was almost as good as sleeping. This is also the ability that most magicians and magicians have, or this is the natural effect of people who specialize in spiritual power to achieve a certain degree, and if they want to spend a lot of time engaged in magic research, they can't do it without abundant spirit.

"I used to sit in the well and watch the sky in the Warcraft Forest, and I thought that the life and death trials in the academy were cruel enough, but I didn't expect that there was a place closer to death than there. It was Carlos who spoke, looking at the moonlight outside through the leaves, with a somewhat complicated expression. "It's no wonder that this time the dean of the exam will send out a magic prop with a concealed aura, if there is no such thing, it would be impossible for two third-order people to enter the depths of the forest alone. ”

Morey lifted his eyelids, his eyes showing sympathy. "Yes, let's get some rest, we're already going out, and it's good for us to hurry up and recover. ”

Carlos was also right and wrong. For mercenaries with rich experience, relying on their knowledge of the forest and the habits of Warcraft, although it is also a bit risky to go deep into the forest, it is not impossible, they have their own set of methods to avoid powerful Warcraft. However, judging from the current situation of Carlos and Morey, they didn't know anything along the way and rushed directly with their heads covered, so it is conceivable that there is more than a little more pressure on them.

In fact, these days, there have been several third- and fourth-order demonic beasts that Morey and the others have encountered, and each time they have escaped incomparably wolf, and in retrospect, Morey is also a little scared in his heart. Although Carlos claims that he can challenge the third-order demonic beast, but he can challenge the challenge, who wants to fight if it is not necessary!

As for the fourth-order ones, they couldn't compete at all, and once a four-eyed rock beast chased them for an afternoon, and after finally getting rid of them, the two of them were so tired that they were about to fall apart. If you take a little slower, you might be buried in the forest forever.

"But I think the most thrilling thing is that time," Carlos probably sighed in his heart, saying a lot more today than before. "You should remember that scorch mark!"

"I was about to fall asleep that night, and suddenly it exploded! It was so close that even half of our umbrella trees were scorched!"

Carlos thought about it, a look of horror on his face.

"The ground is more than ten meters long, all burned to ashes, I touched the ground at the time, and the light and residual temperature made my hands blister! Fortunately, our luck is still good, that time it is estimated that a high-level demonic beast passed by, and vented in a bad mood, not to find us. If you had suffered that explosion head-on, you and I would have died there that night. ”

"It's really dangerous, that time. Morey agreed, but his eyes were a little strange for some reason.

"That's at least a fourth-order demonic beast, maybe even a fourth-order peak!" Carlos sighed. "Even if it's a fourth-order demonic beast, it's impossible to create that kind of explosion lightly!"

"Let's be careful in the future, it's all over, if it's really damn it, we can't run. Morey looked very open, leaning his head on a branch with his hands on his hands, and closed his eyes. "Hurry up and rest, don't think too much about these things, it doesn't matter if you can't sleep tonight, don't drag your feet tomorrow. ”

When Carlos saw Morey say this, he nodded and rested cross-legged. It's just that he didn't notice that Morey had just subconsciously moved his left hand behind him.

The fiery magic carving circle on the tip of the index finger, the brilliance is flowing slightly.
