Chapter 3: The Lake of the Moon
Today is the third day that the Maidt Hunting Squad has entered Elthesen.
Three days, 72 hours, 4,320 minutes, 259,200 seconds.
That's enough time for a young girl to forget her dissatisfaction with her father.
Not to mention, at her core, Luna is an energetic girl who loves freedom and adventure, and doesn't averse to going out on adventures.
She was only resistant to this act of hunting for the sole purpose of killing.
After her anger is gone, Luna still enjoys her "adventure".
This operation is led by Dark, and the crusade naturally does not require Luna to be in charge of too heavy tasks.
The main purpose of her trip is to feel this atmosphere of the jungle.
Igdrasil is a world that celebrates combat.
Every living creature in this world is fighting bravely to survive and reproduce all the time.
Therefore, every living being must have the means to protect itself.
This is true of beasts, and even more so of people!!
In a sense, human society is more cruel.
Turning the pages of human history, we can condense countless bells and whistles into three words.
Man eats man!
Darker knows this very well.
In particular, as he got older, he was able to clearly feel the aging of his body.
The decline in strength, although not yet obvious, is not a good omen.
Once he enters this irreversible process, he will not be able to protect what he has to protect.
This made him even more worried.
Knights are never afraid of life and death.
However, once you become a father, you will often live with a sense of crisis that you "can't afford to die".
As the heir of a guardian knight, even if she is a girl, even if she can't become a knight, she has martial arts that must be inherited.
Heathfield was not a famous family, nor did he have any advanced martial arts skills that had been passed down from his family.
He, Dark. Heathfield, all he can teach his children is the basic martial arts of the Knights, and the combat experience he has exchanged for countless scars on his body.
Every day after the hunt was over and the group was settled, Duck would call Luna and give her some guidance on her own.
Combining theory with practice, this is the best way to survive in the wild.
Under the moonlight, the scenery of the Moon Lake has a unique taste.
The silver-scaled surface of the lake reflected the moonlight like water, as if the entire Moon Lake itself was glowing.
This provides enough visibility for the two practicing by the lake.
Dahl's voice teaching Luna was clear on the edge of the lake.
"Yes, you can't use a slash at this time, you can't use a stab!"
Bite......
"There are so many obstacles in the jungle that stabbing is the quickest and most effective way to attack!"
Ding, ding......
"No, no!"
"In the face of an opponent who is stronger than you, if you miss a blow, you must quickly pull away from it, and once you are entangled in close quarters, the disadvantage in strength will not be compensated by skill!"
Luna draws her sword and retreats!
Whew, whew.
She gasped slightly.
The strength of the guardian knight is not vegetarian, even if her father is very light, the power transmitted by the light sword in her hand makes her arm numb.
Luna adjusts her breathing, using her stride to reach Dark's left.
My father taught.
For the enemy, a sneak attack from behind is always the most advantageous.
If you can't sneak attack, the left side attack is more advantageous for opponents with a sword in their right hand!
[Continuous Thrust! 】
Luna's light sword turned into a cold star.
Ding, ding, ding......
The two cold lights kept colliding, making a crisp sound.
The conduction of sound in the air gradually consumes energy, and as the energy is lost, the sound is heard farther away until it is completely silent.
However, for the white wolf with a talent for insight.
The slight movement coming from the direction of the Moon Lake immediately alerted Silverfang.
He'd just collected some crowe grass.
Crocous grass, applied externally, has the effect of stopping bleeding and reducing swelling.
The White Wolf Clan are magical beasts with a certain amount of intelligence, and they have long learned the ability to use the herbs in the forest to heal their wounds simply.
However, they are demonic beasts after all, and there are only a few herbs they know.
Out of the territorial consciousness of the demonic beast, the silver fang, who was about to return, immediately grabbed the herb in his mouth, turned around and ran in the direction of the Moon Lake.
A moment later.
Silver Fang appeared silently by the lake.
He used the bushes as a cover, looking through the gap in the direction of the movement.
Mankind!!!
Silver Fang spotted the father and daughter practicing in the moonlight at a glance.
Silverfang's eyes became unusually sharp.
Humans, very dangerous!!
There have been many times of contact between the Silver Tooth race and humans, and judging from the historical record, both sides have won and lost.
So Silver Fang still knows something about humans.
Although the vast El Forest is home to Warcraft, humans occasionally invade the forest.
Here's what humanity needs.
Timber, water, minerals, food, all sorts of things are resources that humans crave.
Even powerful magical beasts will become the object of human predation.
Humans are so greedy and evil.
The emergence of human beings is not a good thing.
Although they rarely go deep into the jungle.
As soon as humans venture deeper, it will set off a bloody storm in El Forest.
In the month of Hatti, humans actually appeared in Moon Lake, and I am afraid that things are not so simple.
What do they want to do?
What do they want?
Silverfang observes Luna and her daughter from afar.
He immediately judged the strength of the opponent by observing.
You can judge from the actions that the strength of men should not be underestimated.
And the strength of adult males is much higher than that of underage females.
But the two sides don't look like they're fighting.
Judging by the situation on the scene, the large male human is more like teaching the petite female.
It is not difficult to see that the two are probably father and daughter, master and apprentice, or similar inheritance relationship.
Acting rashly in the face of these two humans, Silver Fang has no certainty of victory.
Silverfang shifted his gaze from Luna's father and daughter to the jungle behind them.
The orange glow of the campfire looms, revealing the shadows of several tents.
This sight made Silvertooth more cautious.
After all, the distance is too far to confirm the specifics of the human camp.
The number of human beings is unknown, the strength is unknown, and the purpose is unknown.
Currently, take on the human team as a lone wolf.
This is clearly not an optimal choice!
Besides, he still has his business to do.
Silver Fang lowered his figure and slowly took a few steps back, after exiting the bushes.
He was turning to leave, as if he had been touched again.
Silverfang glanced back at Luna, who was still practicing, before disappearing into the jungle silently with something in his mouth.
......
Silverfang's figure reappeared, and he had returned to Aya.
He gently placed the crook grass in his mouth beside his wife, then looked up at the sleeping wolves in the cave.
The little wolves were all sleeping deeply, but Hall continued to babble in his sleep.
Hall: "Your bad... It's all your fault... Woowoo woo ......"
Silverfang and Aya looked at each other and smiled.
I'm really worried about this kid's future!
Silverfang watched as Aya bit Crow leaf and applied it to Al's wound, he whispered a few words to Aya before turning and leaving the cave.
He still has things to do.
This group of humans who appeared in the Moon Lake, no matter what the purpose was, was a great threat to them, and the White Wolf Clan had to be prepared.
