"We'll have to find a leeward place as soon as possible, because the mountain winds will be strong at night. Daciano tapped his head, and suddenly remembered the most important thing.

"Look where there is a leeward side, unless we dig a hole from here, and we will pass by one by one tonight, and to-morrow I will take Hunger to the top of the mountain over there, from where I think we can see the mountain road to the north. Susal patted a big man next to him on the shoulder.

"The situation here is complicated, and I'm not sure if there are other Beastmaster territories on the mountain peak. It's too dangerous for you two to rush to the top. Now, you rest here, and Annesha and I will go and see the peaks of this mountain from afar. By the way, find out if there is a safe place to leeward. Bell took two sips of water.

After carefully checking the equipment on his body, the dagger and finger thorn were very reliable. You don't have a bow and arrows with you, that kind of thing only makes your movements more sluggish, and it's hard to get your hands off the rocks at the same time on steep cliffs. He took two ropes made of vines and put on two torches.

Annetha's throwing knives are the main force to ensure safety, and for her safety and flexibility, Bell shoulders the basic burden of the two. Except for Daciano, no one knew more about the habits of the beasts, but she was not from Orion after all, and she was far inferior to Bell in terms of the efficiency of knowledge transformation operations.

After a quick estimate of the time after taking a look at the sunset, Bell didn't plan to climb the cliff at night. It is generally difficult to find a cave on a gentle mountain, and you can only find a shelter from the wind on the edge of the cliff. Walking up the rocky ground, Bell kept telling Anelsa to be careful of the sharp rocks, if she accidentally fell here, she would still roll down for some distance, and it happened that when she fell, she encountered sharp rocks, which would cause serious injuries to her body.

The two of them carefully climbed upward, gradually approaching the top of the mountain, and the strength of the mountain wind gradually increased as the altitude increased. There are no trees growing on the rocky ground, and it is difficult to find something to borrow, and the occasional encounter with a few raised boulders does not stop the cold mountain wind.

"There don't seem to be any trees up there, I guess it's all this kind of rocky ground all the way. The cliff over there looks good, let's go there first, I think we can spend the night there!" Bell leaned over and lowered his weight as much as he could.

Ann Elsa followed not far behind Bell, and if she encountered rocky formations while climbing, the distance between the people in front and the people behind her should not be too close or too far. If you get too close, the person in front will fall, and the person behind will not have time to react, and it is very likely that all people will be killed.

If it is too far, the people above will encounter loose rocks and accidentally fall into one of them, and that distance will turn the small rock into a murder weapon, and eventually take the life of the companion below.

"Why is this mountain full of rocks? It's like the top of a man's head has been shaved. Lady was careful to keep her distance away, but she secretly remembered where Bell had just trodden.

"I haven't heard of a mountain like this, and when we get back, ask that Bassano, doesn't she claim to be erudite? Maybe she'll know the answer! Be vigilant, the closer we get to that cliff, the more careful we be!" Bell walked cautiously towards the great cliff.

The two of them gradually approached the cliff carefully discerning the surrounding environment, the most dangerous thing about the cliff on the high mountain was not only the lair of the beastmaster, but also the gravel that fell at any time. Bell picked up some gravel on the ground as he walked forward, occasionally picking up some stones of the right size and throwing them hard at the cliff.

"Can I help you?" said Ellesha didn't know what Bell was doing.

"No, you just have to watch your surroundings. Bell bent and lifted up, and he smashed the rocks into all parts of the cliff.

"Okay, but ...... What are you doing like this?"

"You can tell when it fell according to the size and color of the rocks under the cliff, and you can preliminarily judge whether the cliff is safe or not! Secondly, throw the rocks over, this abnormal sound can alarm the creatures that live here, if there is really something like the beastmaster here, we can still buy time for escape! Okay! There should be no problem with this cliff. You stay here, I'll go and see. Bell took a few sideways steps before heading up.

Anesa told her to be careful, and stayed where she was very obedient. Although she was very worried, her trust in Bell's ability made her choose to be obedient. And standing a little farther away, in case there is really a falling rockfall, it is good to find it as soon as possible. If two people are moving forward together, it is difficult to juggle the top and bottom, and that is too dangerous.

"Hmm...... It looks really good, and the mountain breeze is blocked a lot. Bell walked to the bottom of the cliff and suddenly felt that the mountain wind had decreased, and the pressure on his body had also decreased a lot. After further confirming their safety, they returned to An'esha's side, and the next task for the two was to find the safest path.

Some of the rocky surfaces are very solid, while others are so loose that humans have to be very careful when they walk on them, and it is even more difficult to lead a mule through it. If there is no safe route, the mules will probably be lost here. When you don't know how far you have to go, it's definitely not cost-effective to abandon the mule so early.

The last rays of the setting sun were scattered on the rocks, and Bell and Annesha were connected by the vines around their waists, Bell, who had the most weight, stood on the top and grabbed the vines with both hands, and Ellesha tested the reliability of the rocks in the lower position. They continued to move downward, and just as the sunlight was completely gone, the two finally returned to the place where everyone was resting.

In the strong mountain winds, the torches burned very quickly, but fortunately the oil lamps unloaded from the mule cart were not discarded. Twelve men were divided into three groups, led by Bell, with the strongest mule, and followed the gentle slope they had just explored to the position of the cliff without danger.

Leaning against the cliff and lighting a small campfire, the first day of the trek finally came to an end. During the break, Bell asked Daciano about the mountain, how this unusual landscape came to be.

After Daciano's analysis, it was deduced that there should have been a huge peak on the top of this mountain, but for some unknown reason, the huge peak collapsed. Countless boulders were scattered and rained down for thousands of years to form this strange mountain.

As for why there are so many Beastmaster territories between the mountainsides, Daciano has no way to explain this question, maybe this area has very special resources. But in the current situation, no one has the leisure to explore this place. Getting out of here alive is the most real.
