Chapter 49: Thousand Mountains and Stone Forest
"Lindsay, how big do you think this forest is?"
"According to what I have, it took two months for someone to walk through this forest."
"How fast do they compare to us?"
"It's all the sixth and seventh stage awakens, and there are even eighth stage guys leading the team."
ββ¦β¦β
In the Starlight Forest, Red fell silent as the conversation fell.
Bang!
The girl kicked a rock and smashed a branch of a cedar tree.
Then she began to move her hands and feet in boredom, trying to find something to do, but she didn't know what to do.
"Humph......"
Lindsay kind of wanted to laugh.
In Hong's body at this moment, he saw his former self.
A few months after the departure from the hidden frontier.
Lindsay was tormented by loneliness, and was so bored that she found an air friend, and when she had nothing to do on the road, she talked to herself.
Now the problem of red though does not come from loneliness.
But this boredom of the long, boring journey was similar to Lindsay's own state at the time.
After the death of the Mother Tree and the Messenger of the Dragon Beast, there was no reason for the two to remain in the Starlight Forest.
Then we will naturally embark on the journey again.
However, as Lindsay had seen from the expedition's notes, the area of the Starlight Forest was huge, and it belonged to a vast area of real realm, even intercontinental!
On the night the mother tree died, a hill collapsed.
This is an exaggerated change that really changes the terrain.
The dryads and other magical beasts that inhabit the forest are also in turmoil, and the main theme of chaos almost dominates the atmosphere there.
But now......
Lindsey looked at the number of stones in her bag.
It's been 103 days since they left the battle, and the forest in front of them is still endless, but it has returned to its normal forest appearance.
If the weather is clear at night, you can find a tree everywhere in the forest and climb it to see the bright starry sky.
If not personal experience.
Who would have guessed that the Mother Tree, who used to rule this forest, had died under a small dagger.
Thinking of this, Lindsay shook her head slightly.
He opened the map on the attribute panel, and after the advancement of the Essentia of Will, the limit detection range of this skill was expanded by another circle.
By judging the topography and color markings on the screen.
Lindsay has a clear insight into the terrain ahead.
Two slightly lower peaks sandwich a long, narrow valley in between, forming a winding tunnel in the mountains.
Its direction is pointing exactly to the east.
Keep going along the terrain without even having to discern your way in the mountains.
"Phew-"
A long, desolate cry rang out from the air.
Lindsay looked up and saw an eagle soaring in the sky above the two of them.
"Eagles...... Eagle! β
Lindsay instantly perked up.
On his synthesis formula, there is such a clause -
[1 Bear Heart + 1 Wolf Heart + 1 Eagle Heart + 1 Leopard Heart = Beast Heart]
Only the heart of the eagle is left in the synthetic!
"Just in time!"
Lindsey didn't want to waste time, so he immediately took out the [Iron Horn Bow] and brushed the silent edge on it, and the activated [FPS Module] began to guide the shooting angle.
"Give it to me!"
In the next second, Lindsay released the bowstring, and the sharp arrow shot out instantly.
The eagle soaring in the sky did not expect that he would experience such an unwarranted disaster.
Syllable!
This arrow was so powerful that it pierced the eagle's body directly.
Its sturdy figure paused in the air, then its wings tilted upwards, and its body fell limply to the ground.
"Got dinner today?"
Red rushed out faster than the eagle fell.
She was already bored, and her figure flashed, and she immediately disappeared into the forest, seeing that she had gone to help Lindsay pick up the corpse of her prey.
"You're faster than a professional hound."
Lindsay complained and chased after her.
The place where the eagle fell, on the branch of a birch tree at the bottom of the canyon.
When Lindsey took the carcass of her prey from Red's hands and collected the materials, a disappointing result was in front of her.
This eagle is just an ordinary animal, and it doesn't produce any high-grade materials at all.
Lindsay reached up and found only one portion of bird meat.
He was reluctant to dig out the heart of the eagle. As expected, the result did not meet the crafting requirements of the equipment.
Lindsey casually looked at the product information.
γRaptor Carcass: Black Hawkγ
[A bird of prey that inhabits the Thousand Mountains Stone Forest, its strength ranges from ordinary beasts to the fifth stage, and it is a relatively common hunter. γ
[Ordinary raptor carcass, extremely low value. γ
"Thousand Mountains Stone Forest? Can the strength reach the fourth stage? β
The loss in Lindsay's heart instantly rekindled hope with the help of this message.
Seeing this scene in the eyes of the red also understood:
"You've got a new harvest of those tricks?"
Lindsay smiled at the corner of her mouth:
"I have good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"
Red said without thinking, "Let's talk about the good news first." β
Lin Circuit: "You think the forest here is very boring, and when you cross the two peaks in front of you, it should be over." β
Red continued to ask, "What about the bad news?" β
A wicked smile appeared on Lindsay's face: "The bad news is that there is a stone forest terrain over there, not only is the terrain more difficult to walk than the canyon forest here, but the coverage area is not smaller than here!" β
Red blinked.
A trace of tangle in his eyes was quickly replaced by a completely uplifted mood.
She shouted:
"Whatever? Two months from the dock won't make me so bored! β
"Lindsay, let's go, let's go."
"It's hot and humid in the hellish forest, and if you sleep at night, your clothes will become sticky when you wake up the next day. I really don't understand how you can stand it? β
Because I have the Molten Crest.
Swap it on at night when you go to bed, and the passively increased heat resistance will completely ignore this level of stuffiness.
Lindsay replied in her heart, but on the surface she only smiled:
"You know I've got a lot of mess and I'm not very afraid of the heat."
The truth is that there is only one [Molten Fire Emblem].
If there were extra materials to craft a second one, Lindsey wouldn't mind sharing the item at all.
Unfortunately, there are no craters to be found.
There is no second Marco Fire Monster to contribute a [Burst Flame Crystal].
"Then hurry up!"
"You also said that this humid and hot environment is because the air in the forest is humid, and the stone forest will not sound like this, I can still tolerate the simple heat!"
Red moved strongly, grabbed Lindsay's wrist and rushed forward.
The two of them sped up, and their figures disappeared into the woods in an instant, not even disposing of the eagle carcass they had just obtained.
Meanwhile.
Just across the mountain from which the two were heading.
Because of the death of a black eagle, a sharp gaze was cast at Lindsay and Red's position, and then countless wings flew sounded among the stone forests.
