Chapter 108: Arriving at the Front

The object is dressed in golden feathers that shine like the sun, which makes people feel warm when they look at it. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info has a stupid and cute head on its slender neck, and there is a tuft of erect dull hair on the head. The large, semicircular beak is completely non-aggressive, except for a sharp hook at the tip. The most striking thing is its gorgeous tail feathers, which are long and soft, intertwined in layers without being messy. Like the dress often worn by aristocratic girls, it blooms proudly and beautifully.

These dozens of avian creatures are more than two and a half meters in size, which is not inferior to petrified demon chickens. Their two thin legs have an inconspicuous ability to jump on uneven crusts and run faster than a horse.

Individual combat effectiveness, they are obviously not as good as petrified devil chickens with strong beaks and sharp claws that can also release petrified rays (maybe can), but this is dozens of them...... As long as they have one-third of the combat power of the petrified demon chicken, they can trample everyone to the ground.

Seeing this, everyone was nervously preparing their weapons. Needless to say, the [Shield of the Sun] was erected, and the [Sword of the Sun] was raised. The bald White used a small iron shield and a chain hammer, the bearded Wood used a two-handed axe, and the old butler shrunk his hands in his sleeves, presumably holding a few throwing knives......

...... of Aluca His face was full of shock, and he had no intention of fighting at all.

"If I'm not mistaken......" Aruka muttered to himself, "these stupid birds must be called chocobos......"

Xinon was handsome, his face stiff and tense, and he said nervously, "Hey...... Little wolf cub, there are no such creatures in the hermit forest, right? Monsters like the Yaki Orochi, if they had been there all along, would definitely be discovered......"

"yes...... I think it might have something to do with this morning's hallucinations and spatial vibrations......" Aruka inferred, "the world we know is gone......"

The Yaqi Giant Snake, the Petrified Demon Rooster, and the Chocobo at this moment...... These were creatures that did not exist on the continent of St. Ainos. Thinking of the "lifting of the restriction of extraordinary power" suggested by the Ring of the Gods, Aluka suddenly thought about whether all these changes were all about one thing......

The Overworld is becoming more similar to the Dimensional World, becoming part of the God-Puncher's game......

"Oh my God...... Thinking of this, it was like a lightning bolt crossed Aluca's head, and a terrible thought came to him, "Third fission...... Do you mean ......?"

"I don't know what you're starting to think again...... "but I think it's better to focus on how to solve the problem of these strange birds." ”

Aluka came back to his senses, looked at the flock of chocobos bouncing around the crowd, and said confidently: "Don't worry, they are called chocobos, they have a gentle personality, and they will not attack humans easily...... As long as you don't draw your sword and cut him. ”

Alexander said in surprise: "Young Master, you really surprise me, why do you know these strange ...... Chocobos?"

"Read more, read more newspapers, eat less, sleep more. Aluka muttered as she took out the little dry food she had left from her bosom, scattered it on the ground little by little, and stretched out her hand to beckon the chocobos. He also remembers that the way to tame chocobos was to feed them something good.

Chocobos have a good IQ and are willing to get close to humans, and when they saw Aluca's movements, they all came together. The chocobos in front of them were the first to eat the dry food, and then ...... Spat back on the ground in disdain, and fart with his ass at Aluca......

“......”

Aruka silently pulled out the execution, and when Xinon saw this, he hurriedly hugged him from behind and persuaded: "Calm down, brother, this is just a flock of stupid birds!"

"Don't stop me! What's wrong with the dry food that Young Master Ben ates? Don't you look down on me! If you can, I also want to take a roast suckling pig on the road! Isn't it impossible to take it!"

"I say, young master......" Wood said in the tone of a teacher and a student, carrying his two-handed axe, "can you be honest? Have you noticed that when five humans are surrounded by dozens of strange birds that are more than two meters high, humans are very dangerous. ”

"Really...... I'm. Aluka finally quieted down and asked angrily, "This group of birds is not satisfied with my food, which of you has a delicious contribution?"

Xinon asked curiously, "Since they have no malicious intent, why don't we just leave?"

Aluca replied: "Because ...... This is a group of mounts that are better than war horses. ”

When everyone heard this, their spirits immediately perked up, knowing that Aluka would not talk nonsense about such things, although they still didn't understand where Aluka knew this information......

The bald White stretched out his big hand and reached into his pocket and fumbled for a while, then took out a leftover chicken bone and said, "That's all I have...... They should like to eat it, right? After all, they are the same kind of food, so they should taste better......."

Aluka squinted and squinted, "I think your actions and words reveal some incredible interest...... That's what I thought from the moment I heard the story of you and the tax collector......"

Wood simply said, "I only have tobacco and spirits in my recipes, and I definitely don't want them." ”

The old butler took out his handkerchief and wiped his sweat, and said apologetically: "What a dereliction of duty, as a housekeeper, I can't do anything at a critical moment." If there could be a tax collector here...... Ah, no, no, no, with some fresh ingredients, I can serve a big meal for Mr. Chocobo. ”

"You said the tax collector! You used the word 'one' to describe the tax collector! What kind of enmity do you and White have against the tax collector!" said Aruka, spouting as he took several steps back, away from the two guys, who were probably ogres......

Hope fell on Sinon, and he never disappointed. He reached into the inner pocket of the mercenary's leather suit for a moment, then pulled out a small bottle containing some brown beans.

"This action, this bottle......" Aruka muttered, "déjà vu." ”

Xinon smiled modestly: "Mercenaries, there must be some small props that are convenient to do." The beans are called 'vegetarian worms', and they are a delicacy for poultry. Sometimes I have to use it to catch rare birds that have escaped from the homes of nobles, some of which are worth thousands of gold sennars......"

"You might as well change your name to Tinker Bell in the future......" Aluka wondered how much of it was in Xinon's pocket.

Xinon opened the bottle and poured the "vegetarian worm" on the ground. The chocobos immediately became agitated, squeezed out of the crowd, and began to eat.

While the chocobos were competing for food, Xinong distributed the "vegetarian worms" to everyone, and each person took some. Everyone understood how a few stupid birds could stump the despicable and cunning humans......

After eating up the "vegetarian insects" on the ground, the chocobos were still unsatisfied and begged for food around the crowd. They each picked a chocobo, fed a "vegetarian worm" and rode up. The chocobo did not resist at all, and lowered its body to facilitate everyone's ride.

Although it does not have a saddle, the chocobo's fur is soft and tough, making it much more comfortable to sit on than to ride a horse. Aluka patted the chocobo's ass with satisfaction, and pointed in a direction, and the chocobo understood and ran away.

He almost threw off Aluca, the chocobo was too fast! The muscles in the chocobo's neck are so strong that they don't feel uncomfortable even if they are strangled.

The distance of 300 meters was reduced to nothing by the chocobo in fifteen seconds. It can run 20 meters per second and travel at a speed of 72 kilometers per hour! The best white horse in the Northern Regions on the St. Ainos continent can only travel 65 kilometers per hour!

After stabilizing down, Aluka fed the chocobo a "vegetarian worm" and told it that it had something to eat when it worked. It's easy to understand with chocobo's IQ, and they don't need reins to control, they can figure it out with a finger pointing in the direction.

After the group met on their respective chocobos, they decided to change their plans. With chocobos, a mount that crosses forests and mountains like walking on flat ground, there is no need to take a detour, and after determining the southeast, north, and west according to the sun's position, you can pass through the hermit forest all the way north.

Timber wolves simply can't keep up with the speed of chocobos, and as wild and intuitive forest animals, chocobos can also actively avoid swamps.

Although there is not much dry food left on the people, and each person only has half a pot of clean water, they can hunt halfway to find water and have no pressure to survive. There are not many "vegetarian worms", but with the character of chocobos, even if there are no "vegetarian worms" to eat after intimacy, they will follow everyone together.

With the help of chocobos, the group arrived in the Duchy of Gay in less than ten days, earlier than expected.

However...... What he heard and saw along the way made it difficult for Arouca to stay calm.

A three-headed dog that breathes fire, a python that shoots out of its eyes to destroy death, a super ~ giant swamp lizard with a body length of 30 meters, a chimera with a lion's head and a sheep's body and a snake's tail, and a man-eating flower that exudes a deadly fragrance...... These monsters from nowhere fill every corner of the Hermit Forest.

The most terrifying thing is that they encounter a giant dragon in the middle of the way.

As soon as they woke up that morning, they found that the chocobo seemed a little restless, and after a certain distance, they refused to go north. In desperation, Aluka and Sinong had no choice but to get off the bird and head north, trying to find out what chocobo was afraid of.

They hadn't gone far when they noticed a large, quiet, dark clearing in front of them.

The soft-limbed trees gently enclose the place, and the sunlight avoids the slight gaps between the leaves, fearing that the slightly drunken peace of the place may be frightened. The clean and neat meadow is dotted with white flowers, exuding a delicate and refreshing fragrance. There are also several groups of fireflies of different colors flying and jumping in the air, I don't know if they are chasing the invisible phantom.

If you don't see the owner of this open space, everyone will think that this is a fairyland on earth, even if all evil criminals come here, their hearts will be sublimated and baptized.

If you don't see the owner......

But what if, Aruka and Sinon had the misfortune of witnessing a giant dragon with a red body lying in the clearing, snoring comfortably. Snoring, thundering...... It's not rhetorical, it's true. Every time the dragon snores, several thunderbolts flash through the air.

The two of them were some distance away from the dragon, which was still asleep, but the fear still weighed them down and almost made them unsteady. Even when he faced the sun god Shenwei in the Rhine Palace, when he faced the sun god Shenwei, Aruka had never been so afraid.

He felt the power of the dragon in front of him...... It may be on par with the Yaki Orochi, and judging by the legend, the dragons have extraordinary intelligence, and the Yaki Orochi, who has low intelligence, cannot be compared to it.

If nothing else, let's just say that the tail of the red dragon, which is at least thirty meters long, will have to die if it sweeps its tail...... Its wingspan is estimated to be more than 100 meters, and it stands up and raises its neck, reaching nearly 200 meters in height. Two hundred meters tall creatures, what is this concept...... Just stand up and walk a few steps, and there will be earthquakes all around. A mouthful of dragon breath spewed out, and the Rhine Palace was gone.

When the two of them returned to the group, they both forgot how they had walked back. Afterwards, Aluka thought about it, why was the clearing where the dragon was sleeping the size of a football field, and when the entire hermit forest was affected by the earthquake......, why was it intact? And this in turn shows that the red dragon has mastered a powerful magic similar to the protective enchantment, which is large enough to cover a radius of several miles.

In any case, with the help of chocobos, the group made a thrilling journey through the hermit forest. After the first village appeared in sight, Aluka proposed to drive the chocobos back to the Hermit Forest, unwilling to allow the silly birds to participate in the stupidity of the clever people.

Looking at the nearby village and feeling the turbid atmosphere of civilization, Xinong decided the content of the next action in two simple sentences: "First, we must find out what the war situation is. Second, we need to go to the front and find Archduke Guy to send the military order. ”

Aruka thought in silence, "A military order sent directly to Grand Duke Guy...... Looks like we're going to have to suffer this time......"

Before returning to the Overworld, Catherine repeatedly reminded him to stay away from the herald after he had given his orders. But now, he and Sinoon are the new heralds......
