The rumors are not wrong in the slightest, and the druids are all crazy!

Lunatic!

Looking at Chen, who had used the Divine Berry Technique to make chili peppers, the four adventurers thought in their hearts.

"Don't get me wrong, the druids can make their own god berries to suit their tastes, and I've made them random for fun."

While speaking, Chen Zhou picked up a chili pepper and threw it into his mouth to chew it.

"This one is sweet."

Seeing the tiger man's expression after chewing chili peppers, the adventurer was somewhat relieved.

No matter how crazy a druid is, he shouldn't torture himself like this.

But no one wants to be the first to eat crabs.

Until Geta stretched out her little hand...... Halflings have always been a race that can't resist curiosity and hides amazing courage.

"This berry is salty, it's okay, but why is it still a little spicy?"

"I took out most of the capsaicin from the chili peppers, but deliberately kept some of them so that you would know that you were eating chili peppers."

Chen Zhou is a native of Xiong Province, and he can eat spicy food.

Stein had no choice but to hold his forehead: "I don't think I need to keep the chili flavor ......"

Regardless, Chan and Gaita at least proved that the thing was edible.

So the four adventurers divided the remaining 8 chili peppers equally, and prepared to eat them when they were injured during the adventure.

It's nice to have a druid as a teammate when you're adventurous, so you don't have to worry about surviving at all.

"Say it in advance, I'm the employer, and I'll give you water and magic berries at most, and basically won't give you other help."

"No problem, we promise to escort you to Gajilan's borders."

With Stein officially taking over the mission, Chen and the adventure team began preparations to go north.

Despite the fact that the Star Folk go out to kill roaming creatures, traveling far away from home is almost like risking your life in this day and age.

The Tide of Magic has mutated ordinary animals into magical beasts, making them more ferocious and more likely to leave their original territory and enter the human world to hunt for fragile and abundant food.

In addition to bandits and deserters, magical beasts have also become one of the threats in travel.

In particular, they do not judge the gains and losses of robbery because of the appearance of tiger people, even if a target like Chen, who is obviously not easy to provoke, will become the target of their hunting once they are alone.

If he didn't want to enjoy the scenery along the way, he would probably prefer to fly through the air......

……

Two days later, Chan embarks on a journey north with the warrior Stein, the warrior Arrosel, the wanderer Geta, and the warlock Lebet.

The first few days without encountering much danger at the pass began, but after leaving the pass for some distance, desolate villages, potholed roads, bones thrown on the side of the road, and magical beasts began to appear around them.

"The standard of living of the people of Gajilan is average."

Chen, who has lived in Fanhuagang for a long time, rarely sees the "normal" situation of this world.

Now I have to sigh when I see this, no matter how bad the Flower Port under Baron Filia is, it is still the level of a first-line town.

"It's not that the main battle faction is starting to make trouble again." Gaita, who had suffered in the past, sneered, "If there is going to be a war, there must be no taxes." ”

But that was only an excuse, and the lords who were most pleased to collect taxes generally did not go to war until the count asked for it.

"It's nothing more than a diversion of growing internal contradictions, but it's really rare for two countries to have such frequent wars."

"I just don't know if the Star Folk will go to war?" Chen inquired curiously.

Stein shook his head, and that was exactly the problem.

The previous Star Folk were particularly excited because the war was about to start, and they signed up to go to the battlefield.

Immortal and indestructible and strengthened through battle, such a terrifying collective of soldiers immediately made the voice of the main battle faction unprecedentedly high.

War has become a sure fact, and the supply, combat readiness, mobilization of troops, and the people of the stars have all reached a state of imminent war.

Seeing that the war was about to start this month, for some reason, most of those Star Folk regretted not wanting to go to war again.

Because he knew that this was the real world, Chen secretly said in his heart, knowing that there was a living person on the other side, it would indeed be very difficult to kill.

As a player, that's true......

"Wait, most of them?"

Stein explains, "Not all of the Star Folk have the same beliefs, and after the vast majority of them are reluctant to fight, the desire of the other part to go to war grows. ”

However, the specific reason is not clear to him, and after leaving the aristocratic life in captivity in the city, his social circle has also shrunk.

But the war machine that was already in operation could not be stopped, and the war between Gagilan and Carlos was bound to break out within a month.

At that time, after completing this mission, he will not have to go to the battlefield.

The battlefield is where the most easy place to get honor.

The question is, how can these mortals be able to achieve their feats and become the center of attention on the battlefield where the Star Folk are active?

Maybe that's not possible......

"Killing the head of the red dragon will probably be able to glorify the ancestors." Chen quipped.

Stein suddenly returned a complaining gaze: "Being dragon dung is the opposite. ”

"Stop chattering, look at the ground."

At this moment, the silent Aloselle suddenly spoke: "The rut marks on the ground and the pace of the pack beast suddenly became a little hurried, as if they were being chased by something. ”

Hearing this, Lebet narrowed his eyes: "Are these traces fresh?" ”

"It's very new, it should have happened half an hour to an hour ago."

Hearing this, the adventurers became nervous and prepared for battle.

It's been quiet for so long along the way, and it's time for a little movement.

"Those fat-brained nobles are not in danger of the safety of the territory at all!"

The halfling cursed the lord for not providing shelter for his taxes, and together with Aroselle, he surveyed the ground.

It didn't take long for the road ahead to be blocked by trees across the road.

People on foot can easily get around, but horse-drawn carriages are completely impassable.

It was here that the traces of ruts deviated from the dirt road and led the trail towards the nearby forest.

At the same time, Aroselle and Geeta find another disturbing footprint.

"These are the footprints of gnolls and wolves, I'm afraid they're chasing the caravan!"

Even the trees in front of them may be their arrangement.

If this is the case, even if you escape along the path into the forest, it may be difficult for the people in the car to survive.

"We must, ......"

Stein was about to do it, but remembered that he was on his way to a mission, so he had to look at his employer who was strolling in the back.

In principle, if you accept a task, you cannot drag your employer into danger without authorization, but ......

"Go check it out, but I'm not going to provide treatment for injuries that are not part of the mission."

Seeing that the employer nodded in agreement, the adventurer immediately followed the direction of the caravan and the gnolls under the guidance of Aloselle.
