Fang Wen opened her eyes, looked at the sleeping girls beside her, and quietly got up from the bed. After she got dressed, she struggled to pick up a long sword and walked out the door.

At this moment, a girl suddenly sat up and said, "Fang Wen, you can't go to the Evil Tiger Cottage. ”

"Albert hasn't been back for so long, I have to go and see it. Fang Wen shook her head and whispered, "Have you forgotten? ”

"If he is in danger, you will be caught in the net if you go, do you want to go back to those nightmarish days?" the girl persuaded.

As the girls were talking loudly, the other nine girls were also woken up.

After knowing the reason, the nine girls also spoke out to dissuade them.

"A bunch of cowards, do you think the village will be safe if something happens to Albert?" Fang Wen said coldly, and then added: "If you are really afraid, run away before the robbers reach the village." ”

With that, Fang Wen pushed the door open.

Walking on the way to the Evil Tiger Cottage, Fang Wen's hands holding the long sword kept trembling.

She was pale and looked around warily. Whether it was the howling of wolves and tigers in the mountains and forests, or the trees that looked like devils at night, she felt very frightened. But her stubborn personality and an inexplicable strength supported Fang Wen and gave her the courage to move on. Suddenly, there was a noise not far away, but then it fell silent again. Fang Wen was startled and hurriedly aimed her long sword at the source of the sound. "Who!" she shouted, trying to dispel the fear in her heart with her shout.

"Fang Wen?"

A familiar voice came.

Fang Wen looked down and saw a girl in men's pajamas emerge from the bushes.

"My dear cousin, it was so good that I thought I would never see you again. The girl threw herself into Fang Wen's arms and choked up.

"The sun god is above, Sophie, you are still alive. Fang Wen's face was overjoyed, and then, she suddenly thought of something and asked, "Did Albert save you?"

The girl Sophie was stunned for a moment, then shook her head blankly. "Who's Albert?" she asked Sophie.

"A red-haired boy of about sixteen or sixteen years old, about seventeen inches tall, looked a little thin. He has a lot of strength and can do magic. Fang Wen described Albert's characteristics in detail.

"I seem to have an impression. Sophie frowned, and after a moment of thought, her eyes lit up. "I remembered that in the morning there was indeed a red-haired boy who went to the Evil Tiger Cottage, and he killed many robbers by himself. She told Fang Wen, "Then the boy fled, and the Tiger King and his men chased after him. I was terrified and didn't dare to run away even though there was no one in the cottage. After a long time, the Evil Tiger King still hasn't returned, so I ran out. ”

"What about Albert, is he with you?" Fang Wen asked urgently, her eyes widening.

"Fang Wen, I really don't know where Albert is in your mouth. Sophie shook her head repeatedly, frightened by Fang Wen's expression, and took a step back.

"Sorry, I'm so excited. Fang Wen smiled bitterly, her expression darkened, and said, "If you follow this path, you will see a village, and the sixth wooden house on the right is Albert's house, and everyone else is there. She paused, took off her coat, and handed it to Sophie: "Come, Sophie, put this on." ”

"Aren't you coming with me?" asked Sophie, timidly.

"I have to go to the Tiger Cottage, I have to find Albert. Fang Wen shook her head.

"Are you crazy?" said Sophie, incredulous. "What if the Tiger King is back?" she grabbed Fang Wen's hand.

"That's right. Fang Wen laughed to herself. "I'm really crazy. With that, she shook off Sophie's hand and turned to walk up the hill.

"There could be danger there, and I can't let you go on the risk. Sophie chased after her. "We managed to escape. She grabbed Fang Wen's arm and comforted.

"None of us can escape without Albert. Fang Wen told Sophie, "He saved us." ”

Sophie was silent, she had never seen Fang Wen so serious. "I'll be with you. She smiled and made her decision, despite her fear.

"Sophie, it's my business, it's none of your business. Fang Wen said without thinking that she didn't want Sophie to take the risk.

Sophie looked into Fang Wen's eyes. "My cousin, you are my only relative. ”

The evening breeze wanders like a ghost in the mountains and forests.

The branches swayed in all directions, and the leaves made a rustling sound, like a devil roaring with teeth and claws.

The two girls supported each other and stumbled through the dense forest. They were already pale with fright, but they still mustered up the courage to move on.

I don't know how long it took, Fang Wen and Sophie finally arrived at their destination, and they brought them endless nightmares to the evil tiger cottage.

"Let's go inside. Fang Wen bit her lower lip and forced herself to overcome her fear.

Sophie nodded, cowering behind Fang Wen, who was not as brave as her cousin, but who had no choice. Fang Wen is her only remaining relative, and Sophie can't let her venture alone.

The two sisters walked slowly, Fang Wen holding her sword in both hands, vigilant all around. They searched room after room, but found nothing. The Evil Tiger Cottage was empty, except for the mangled corpses gnawed by wild beasts, emitting a disgusting stench of rancidity.

"Let's go, Albert isn't here. Fang Wen said disappointedly. "I hope he's okay. She smiled bitterly.

"Wait, Fang Wen. Sophie tugged at the corner of Fang Wen's clothes. "I know where the Tiger King's gold coins are hidden, and it will help us in the rest of our lives. She told her.

Three days had passed, and Albert's injuries had long since healed.

He climbed more than a dozen mountains in a row, changed routes several times along the way, and still did not find his way home. Not only that, but he drifted away.

Albert stopped, and the reason why he was able to make such a judgment was because not far ahead, there was the adventurer's paradise, or hell, the second largest primeval forest in the Atlantis continent, the Misty Forest.

After some hesitation, Albert entered the Misty Forest.

His instinct told him that the chances of encountering people in the Misty Forest must be higher than in the mountains.

Covering an area of nearly 30 million square kilometers, the Misty Forest is arc-shaped as a whole, bordering the sea to the south, and the two empires of Buffia and Auston to the north, stretching from the Langton Heath to the Gard Mountains. As the name suggests, the Misty Forest is always shrouded in a mysterious mist that cannot be dispelled, and the lush tall trees block out most of the sunlight, making the visibility of the Misty Forest extremely low. The outer area is only about 10 meters, and the deeper you go, the thicker the fog and the lower the visibility.

Albert walked cautiously, alert to any danger that might arise at any time.

The Misty Forest is not owned by any country, and is owned by the guardians of nature, magical creatures known as Warcraft.

Warcraft come in different forms, some resemble birds and beasts, and some resemble fish and insects. But the monsters are bigger and stronger, and they also possess higher intelligence, as well as magical abilities that nature has given them.

More than half of the mercenaries or adventurers who die each year die in the mouths of Warcraft. Of course, not all Warcraft are huge.

In front of Albert, there is a kind of one-star monster with a gentle temperament that is the size of a palm and can't even be beaten by a domestic cat.

The Snow Tiger is the smallest and very rare feline beast.

They are water-type monsters that can gather small water balls to attack. It's just that the lethality is simply outrageously low, so this ability is usually used by Snow Tiger to clean hair. But Snow Tiger is not useless, the wisdom of these little guys is far superior to that of the same level of demonic beasts, and even comparable to some high-level demonic beasts. Snow Tiger's cute and cute appearance is even more popular among girls, coupled with Snow Tiger's amazing speed, which is extremely difficult to catch, making the price of this rare monster remain high, even surpassing that of the nine-star monster.

Albert ignored the Snow Tiger who stood in his way and continued on his way.

Of course, it's not that he loves small animals. Albert was well aware that one person could not catch such an extremely intelligent and astonishingly fast little guy.

Snow Tiger seemed to have guessed that Albert would not hurt it, and there was no trace of fear in his eyes, and even Albert did not make a movement to run away when he passed by him. Seeing Albert leaving, Snow Tiger ran in front of him, screaming, not knowing what to do.

"Are you provoking me?" Albert paused, his eyelids jumping. The little furry creature had been following him for a while, not knowing what the intentions were.

Snow Tiger seemed to understand Albert's words, shook his head humanely, and put on a pitiful expression.

"And what do you want to do?" Albert sighed.

Snow Tiger pointed ahead with his front paws, his big eyes as clear as lake water filled with water vapor.

"Sorry little one, I'm fine. Albert shook his head, guessing that Snow Tiger should have been bullied by other monsters and wanted to find someone to help.

"Whew!" Snow Tiger opened his mouth and roared, but there was no kingly spirit, and his delicate and soft voice made people feel comfortable, like a little kitten who was coquettish to his owner.

After a moment of stalemate, Albert was defeated, and he couldn't stand the helpless eyes of the little cute beast. "Lead the way. He said helplessly.

The clever Snow Tiger knows how to use people's affection for it to achieve a special purpose.

But even so, there are people who are willing to be deceived.

Albert is one of them.

"Whew!"

Snow Tiger roared with a milky voice, and the moisture in his eyes disappeared instantly, replaced by his eyes full of joy. It took four short legs and ran merrily forward, leading Albert's way.

"Hasn't Albert come back yet?"

"That's right, I guess that boy and the robber are all gone. ”

"Let the workers continue to search deep in the mountains, I have to see Albert's body with my own eyes. ”

"Rich farmer, you don't need to be so cautious, if Albert is still alive, why hasn't he come back now?"

"That's right, three days, if Albert hasn't shown up yet, we'll take action. The farmer smiled. "The coins, and the beautiful sisters, are all mine. ”
