"How many days are left of your mission?" asked Edmund.
"There are still five days left, enough for us to get out of this forest. Edmund replied, but he remembered the wolf-possessed wolf-monster he had encountered before, and he didn't know how many other monsters were possessed like the wolf-like monster in this forest. And most importantly, they had never walked through the eastern forest, so they weren't familiar with it.
"Nameless, you're someone who has participated in the Vermilion Fruit collection mission before, and you must know the situation in this forest very well. Edmund said to Ryusan, "Please take us out of this forest!"
When Matilda heard Edmund's words, she hurriedly walked to Longshan and said, "Yes, nameless, please take us out of here!
Long Shan nodded and said, "I am now a member of your team, and I will definitely fulfill my obligation to take you out of here." ā
After Long Shan finished speaking, he clicked on his watch, searched for the marks he had made before, and after a while he said again: "Our current position is about fifty kilometers away from the next safer location, as long as we speed up, we should be able to get there before dark." ā
Edmund and the others have not rested since last night, but now that the situation is unknown, they do not dare to slack off in the slightest, so they have to obey Long Shan's arrangement and follow Long Shan towards the east. In fact, Yongshan also saw that Edmund and the others were tired, but he also intended to exercise their perseverance, so he didn't give them time to rest.
Longshan led the way, so they didn't encounter any decent monsters along the way, only a few bunches of big-mouthed two-legged monsters occasionally appeared, and they were easily dismissed. As for the two-tailed giant wolves in this forest, they didn't see a single one. Longshan estimated that all the wolf monsters in this area were absorbed by the wolf monster possessed by the Netherworld, so he would encounter endless wolf monster attacks that night.
Fifty kilometers of rapid running, that is, an afternoon, in the evening, they arrived at the safe position of Longshan Talk, which was a clearing surrounded by trees. Due to the cover of trees, it is difficult for ordinary monsters to detect what is going on inside. So they lit a fire and rested around it. Everyone was tired from the day, especially the three women, who had almost just fallen asleep, and the three men had to take on the duty of keeping vigil.
"Nameless, who are you?" Edmund said as he sat on the edge of Dragon Mountain, "You are the one who participated in the last vermilion fruit picking mission, and you have lost all your strength but can still navigate this forest with ease, it stands to reason that you should also be a famous master in the human realm, but we have never seen you, nor have we heard of your name." ā
"Hehe, I'm just keeping a low profile. Long Shan said with a smile.
Just as Edmund was about to ask further, Isaac cried out, "I'm so hungry, do you have anything else to eat?"
"Have you finished your bread?" said Edmund, knowing that Isaac had a lot of food, so he took out another piece of his bread and threw it at Isaac. "Here's this for you. ā
"Uh" Isaac took the bread, but had no idea of eating it, "I don't want to eat bread, I want to eat meat." ā
"Eat meat..."In fact, Edmund also had enough of this kind of pig-flavored bread, so he asked Xiang Longshan: "Nameless brother, do you know where there are animals in this forest that can be eaten?"
"I know of a location where there is a spirit deer. Long Shan thought for a moment and said, "And there are no monsters there, it's not far from us, so you can go there tomorrow." ā
"Spirit deer!" Edmund couldn't help but salivate at the thought of the golden roast meat, "Then we must go over there tomorrow to have a look, we will make a lot of money if we catch a spirit deer." ā
This night, Edmund and Isaac thought that the spirit deer had entered the dream fragrance, and even Isaac shouted the spirit deer in his sleep, leaving a large spread of saliva.
At dawn the next day, Edmund couldn't wait for Longshan to take everyone to the grassland infested with spirit deer. Sure enough, the hard work paid off, and as soon as they arrived on this plain, they found a small herd of spirit deer. So under the siege and interception of everyone, he easily killed one of the largest spirit deer.
Isaac is a big eater, but he's also a good cook. He skinned the deer in two strokes, leaving the grass on the heads of the two deer, Matilda, the youngest, and then set up a grill and roasted the whole deer. After a while, the smell of venison permeated the entire grassland.
When the venison was ready, Isaac cut six large pieces with a dagger and gave them to the people. Although Long Shan had completely lost his appetite, when he watched the rest of the people gobbling up venison, he couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in his heart. The gap in the heart was also filled.
"What a smell!" Suddenly, a man's voice reached everyone's ears. Long Shan suddenly looked up and saw three people wearing green Huaxia military uniforms who didn't know what appeared in front of everyone. When he looked closer, he found that two of the three had been seen by him.
"Xu Qian, Xu Tianfeng!" Long Shan couldn't help but whisper. Of the three people who came, standing in the middle was the commander-in-chief of Huaxia City, Xu Qian, and standing on his left was his younger brother Xu Tianfeng, and standing on his right hand was a woman who looked to be in her early thirties.
"Who are you?" Edmund and the others were all startled by the sudden arrival of the three people, and quickly stood up, Edmund, as the captain, had to ask, "Why did you suddenly appear here?"
"Hehe, I'm sorry," Xu Tianfeng hurriedly explained, "We were just attracted by the scent of this deer, if it's convenient, can you share some of our venison, we can pay you points." ā
Edmund knew that these three people were definitely masters, and when he saw that there was still a lot of venison, he nodded and said, "You can eat these venisons, as for the points, forget it." ā
"Thank you then. Xu Tianfeng hurriedly took out a dagger and stepped forward to cut the venison, while Xu Qian and the woman found a place near the fire and sat down, waiting for Xu Tianfeng to bring the venison.
"This dagger is Adira's dagger!" Maretta's sharp eyes immediately saw that the dagger Xu Tianfeng used to cut meat was Adira's.
"Did you say this dagger?" Xu Tianfeng heard Marita's words, he looked up at Marita, and saw that the other party was also a beautiful woman, Xu Tianfeng immediately smiled and said, "Beautiful young lady, this dagger was taken from a wolf monster by us, could it be that you dropped it?"
"You took it from the wolf-goblins?" asked Maretta at once, "where is the wolf-goblin now?"
"I've already killed you!" Xu Qian suddenly interjected, "A wolf monster possessed by the Netherworld still wants to use us as food, it's really delusional!"
