Chapter 171: Into the Forest
Hawking Town is still looking for the adventurers of the team, where can they guess that the result is such a dramatic change, such a young little guy is actually a magician, no wonder he still walked to the front of the gray wolf's team under everyone's gaze. There is a warning among adventurers: never underestimate a person, no one knows whether that person will be a hidden magician or a noble nobleman.
The gray wolf's voices that were originally joking with Willow Shadow immediately came to an abrupt end, and the huge elemental water balloon in Willow Shadow's hand was a proof of strength. Looking at Liu Ying's gaze, his eyes were replaced with awe, and in the face of strong strength, age and physique seemed meaningless.
"I also have a friend who is also an apprentice in magic, and I'm going to take him with me. ”
Liu Ying did not forget Asa who was still lying in the inn, and he must take him with him if he wants to enter Arkachon. Du Lu was even more smiling when he heard Liu Ying say that he had a friend who was also a magician, and if he could find two magicians to go in and join the captain's party, the gray wolf would have survived this problem. Several large teams of adventurers in Hawking Town are constantly competing with each other, and whoever falls behind will be frantically suppressed.
"One gold coin for one mission, which is a good deal. ”
After Asa followed Willow Shadow to Duru, Duru paid the two for the operation, and whether it was successful or not, he and Willow Shadow could get a gold coin from the gray wolf. For the first time, Asa felt that the willow shadow of Muleng had a rare enlightenment, and he also had an economic acumen, not only did he have an experienced team to bring him into Arkachon for free, but he could also earn some travel expenses by the way.
Grim is the captain of the Gray Wolf, one of the few magicians in Hawking Town who is the most highly cultivated, and the members of the Gray Wolf were initially attracted by his status as a trainee magician. Graham was very satisfied that Duru was able to recruit two magicians, and there was not much communication between them when time was pressed, and after saying hello, the whole team entered Arkachon. Grim was going to wait until the mission was over to see if he could keep the two young magicians.
The Arkachon Forest was silent, and the gray wolf's brigade walked quietly, everyone vigilantly observing their surroundings, and did not let go of every corner to prevent any possible emergencies. The adventurers of the Gray Wolves have been in Arkachon for many years, and they have a basic tacit understanding with each other, and only such a team can guarantee minimal casualties and obtain sufficient benefits in Arkachon. Maybe in the town, Liu Ying still felt that this team was still a little scattered, but after entering the forest, it was completely changed, and no one would joke with their lives. A small negligence can lead to a catastrophe for the whole team!
Willow Shadow and Asa are newcomers and magicians, so they stay in the middle of the group, and they don't have to contribute until they meet their target, but Willow Shadow keeps an eye on the situation around them. The adventurers in Hawking Town are all active in the periphery of Arkachon, even the team of gray wolves rarely goes to the central zone, Liu Ying heard Asa say that the peripheral demonic beasts generally do not appear in the third order, and the entire Arkachon has also had a record of fifth-order demonic beasts, and there are not many problems with Liu Ying's strength.
When entering the forest, Gram told Liu Ying and Asa that their goal this time was to capture the second-order demonic beast Qingshui Niu, and the problem was to find this kind of demonic beast in the vast forest, and at the same time, there were five teams competing with the gray wolf, and it was not easy for the gray wolf to successfully win this list. Even with the addition of two people, the current strength of the team makes Gram not too sure.
When we first entered Arkachon, everything was calm and there was no fighting. After traveling for a while, small demonic beast attacks began to appear, and the three scaly lizards attacked the gray wolf. The scaly-skinned lizard is a magical beast with a relatively high strength among the first-order magical beasts, and it is an earth-attribute magical beast, and it rarely appears together. At this time, three at a time may be due to the arrival of spring, which is the breeding season for many magical beasts. This group of adventurers disturbed their good deeds, and the three scaly lizards certainly didn't have a good temper.
Although the scaly-skinned lizard is an earth-attribute demonic beast, its means of controlling the enemy is its toxin-rich saliva, and the poisoned person will die in half an hour if he is not treated in time. Aside from the magic crystal, the most valuable night on the scaly lizard is its saliva. Willow Shadow had seen a jar in Mia's lab, which was supposed to be one of the magician's standing materials for Magical Beasts. The toxins in scaly-skinned lizards are not innate, but are deposited in the mouth by food as they grow.
Three scaly lizards suddenly appeared, and even though the adventurers of the gray wolf were already careful, they still suffered casualties in the first place. A large piece of flesh was bitten off the legs and stomachs of the two adventurers in the row, and the wounds quickly turned black and purple in the air. The antidote is all prepared by magicians, and the price is not low, and Gramm will not use such a precious potion on two ordinary adventurers. The two lay on the ground and wailed, while the others looked at them as if they were looking at two corpses.
The team was attacked, and the people in the gray wolf immediately attacked, and the ordinary people were already holding weapons on the top. It is the magician who can really cause lethality, and the six magicians, including Graham, are already chanting magic, and the first to attack is Gramm, in addition to his highest cultivation, it is also because he has a simple magic wand, and this wand made of second-order magic crystals costs most of Gramm's savings.
Willow Shadow didn't make a move, and Asa watched from the sidelines when he saw that Willow Shadow didn't attack. Willow wanted to see how these mages attacked, and when he entered Arkachon, Gram had said that he didn't need his help until he met Shimizu Niu.
After Gram quickly eliminated one of the scaly lizards, he helped five other magicians eliminate the remaining two scaly lizards. The gray wolf's response was strong and fast, but three people still died under the mouth of the scaly lizard, plus two people wailing on the ground, and five adventurers died in this encounter with the gray wolf. The income from the three scaly-skinned lizards made Gram happy, as were the members of the gray wolves who were still alive, and the adults were able to give them some leftover soup when they ate meat.
No one cares about the dead, the team moves on, no one says anything, this is the law of survival of Arkachon, the dead have no value, and they can share a little benefit. It can only be said that luck is not on the side of these five people this time, and making money requires paying risks.
After the attack of the three scaly lizards just now, the gray wolf, who had suffered a loss, became more cautious, and kept walking through the Arkaxiong under the command of Graham. However, it was impossible to completely avoid the demonic beast just by being careful, and the team was attacked by the demonic beast again after walking less than eight hundred meters, and the casualties this time were much smaller, and only a few adventurers were slightly injured. It was also this time that the Monster was not as powerful as the Scaly Lizard, so the battle ended quickly.
The team will basically be attacked by a demonic beast within half an hour, and in so many encounters in between, Liu Ying has not made a move, and Asa has participated in two battles in the middle. The adventurers around Liu Ying were a little dissatisfied with Liu Ying's behavior of taking money and not making efforts, because Liu Ying was a magician and his status was completely different from his own, so no one said anything. Gram just glanced at Willow Shadow halfway, he had already released that kind of thing and would not blame Willow Shadow, but he was very dissatisfied with Willow Shadow's behavior. Some things are just polite words, but I didn't expect this young man to take it seriously.
Asa aroused the admiration of some of the Gray Wolves, and in the few times Asa attacked, his attacks were crucial, and he killed the monster without using Gramm's help and other magic apprentices. After the battle, the adventurers beside him kept praising Asa, who was only as strong as the battle-hardened Duru. At the beginning, everyone saw that the two new magicians were very young, and they still had some doubts about their combat effectiveness. Asa's performance dispelled the doubts in the hearts of the members of the gray wolf.
Although Asa has been making potions in Holker to make money, his strength has always been in the upper echelon of magic apprentices of the same level, otherwise Edith would not have spent money to ask him to complete the tasks assigned by Mia.
"Guys, clean up your surroundings and camp here tonight. We have to hurry tomorrow morning, and everyone will rest early after eating. ”
After the entire day of walking and fighting, everyone was exhausted, and many of the injured adventurers also needed to use their free time to deal with their wounds. Graham watched as the team came to an empty section of woodland and gave the order to rest. The pace of progress stalled, and the whole team stopped immediately after Gramm's order, and many of the risk-taking adventurers who had no strength came to their senses at this time, and worked hard to set up a makeshift camp.
The fire was also raised, and everyone sat nearby eating the dry food they had brought, and the few who had taken the vigil were a little harder, still standing around the camp and still nervous. Willow Shadow sits with Asa and prepares to eat Asa's pale brown bread. Before he could finish his mouth, Gram took the roasted monster meat and brought it to the two of them, and the smell of meat wafted in the air. A few adventurers couldn't help but take a look, and finally ate their dry bread honestly. In Arkachon, only magicians can be treated like this.
Instead of staying with the other magicians, the two of them were in the company of ordinary adventurers, so Gram personally sent the freshly roasted monster meat. This is the meat of the first-order Warcraft Sharp-haired Pig, and I met one on the way forward in the procession, and the meat of this Warcraft is quite delicious, so it was kept as a small stove for magicians.
After dinner, many adventurers found a place to lie down by the fire, and the sound of thunderous snoring was overwhelming, and it was strange that everyone was not woken up by each other, and it seemed that the day's journey had made everyone tired. As magicians, Willow and Asa were assigned a tent that could slightly block out the noise outside.
