Chris's eyes flashed. Back in the family, although he would occasionally hide his identity and do some missions, his combat experience was really not that rich.
However, with his overwhelming power, dealing with such a small venomous snake wouldn't be a problem for him.
He deftly dodged the snake's attack, and his short sword dagger fell, making a small cut.
The cold air seeped into the snake's body through the wound, and the snake's body stiffened for a moment.
The others seized the opportunity and rushed forward.
The venomous snake was quickly dealt with.
The others looked at Chris differently now. It seemed like what he was doing was very simple, but none of them could match his reaction speed and attack speed.
This is a difference in levels!
"Thank you so much, young man!"
The burly man with the thick beard looked complicated for a moment, then quickly clasped his hands in thanks.
Chris nodded, not particularly concerned, but now was a good opportunity to ask: "Is there any terrain nearby that is surrounded by mountains on two sides and water on two sides?"
According to the map, the treasure of that ruin is located near this type of terrain.
The burly man with the thick beard pondered for a moment and shook his head slightly: "Our team has been operating in this outer area for over a decade, and we don't have the kind of terrain you're describing. It's probably deeper in!"
The Twilight Forest covers a vast area, encompassing numerous mountains and rivers.
However, the conversation and questions made them realize that this person's purpose was not as simple as he said, and that he might be looking for something.
"Young man, you didn't come here for hunting, did you?"
The burly man with the thick beard spoke, tentatively asking a question.
Chris nodded, but didn't say anything more.
Seeing this, the burly man with the thick beard didn't say anything, and took out a booklet from his pocket.
"Young man, you seem to be planning to delve deeper into this area. We brothers are too insignificant to offer much help. This book is a collection of our experiences over the past decade or so, and its contents should be of some assistance to you!"
Chris was slightly surprised. He took the booklet and opened it. Many of the contents made him frown, but then his brows slowly relaxed.
He had no idea what those contents contained.
For example, there is a gray mushroom in the Twilight Forest that emits a hallucinogenic poisonous mist and likes to grow in large patches. Once you step into this gray mushroom forest, you will almost certainly be trapped and die inside.
For example, there is a type of rough-skinned beetle unique to the Twilight Forest. It has sharp teeth and a highly venomous mouth, and likes to grow on trees near swamps. It is almost identical to tree bark, and cannot be seen at all without careful observation.
These experiences are the most valuable things.
It is of great value to him.
Chris quickly finished reading, then clasped his hands in thanks to the group: "Thank you all. I need to explore deeper into the area now, so let's part ways here!"
The burly men with thick beards exchanged glances, then clasped their hands in farewell.
Before leaving, they didn't forget to collect the snake carcass on the ground. Such a black-striped and white-spotted snake could be sold for at least 500 gold coins, which was more than enough for them for this trip into the forest.
After parting ways with the group, Chris ventured deeper into the area, memorizing the contents of the booklet.
This helped them avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.
...
Su Qing persuaded the monkeys to pledge their loyalty to him, and the monkeys, each with a large bump on their head, waved goodbye to him with tears in their eyes.
Su Qing has six slave contracts left. It seems she needs to use them sparingly. It's better to just kill the magical beasts that don't have much economic value.
Just like the two-winged tiger under my butt, it's practically useless except for its edible value.
The two-winged tiger sensed a cold, eerie gaze, and trembled inexplicably, sensing a hint of ill intent.
"Awoo awoo!"
The big cat let out a fawning meow. Su Qing thought for a moment and decided to keep it for now. If it didn't behave, she would eat it as a reserve food.
Arriving at the location of the three Jiao Yan horses, Su Qing glanced at them; two large and one small, they must be a family of three.
Then send them off on their journey in perfect order.
Judging from the sky, it was almost noon. Su Qing prepared a barbecue, cleared out an area, and lit a campfire.
The meat was as firm as rock and not easy to chew, but fortunately Su Qing and the big cat both had good teeth.
The only thing that Su Qing regretted was that the meat wasn't seasoned with salt and pepper, making the names of the three horses somewhat misleading.
After feeding the family of three, Su Qing, with the big cat as her pillow, found a place to take a nap.
After waking up, continue deeper into the area.
Su Qing simply ignored the magical beasts he encountered on the road that were only at the level of a formal knight, or even weaker, as long as he didn't actively dwell on them.
He planned to build a portion of the outer perimeter of this Twilight Forest into a training ground and hunting ground exclusively for them, which would definitely require the presence of some magical beasts.
As they advanced, they formed alliances with several beast packs. With only two slave contracts left, Su Qing decided that unless they encountered a magical beast with extremely high economic value, they would simply kill it and take its core.
Monster cores were also one of his purposes for coming here.
Suddenly raising an eyebrow, Su Qing unexpectedly spotted someone.
About eighty miles away, a man with short, golden hair and blue eyes like the ocean deftly plunged his short sword into the throat of a goat-like monster.
They then skillfully pried out the monster core from the other's head, and quickly left, heading deeper into the area.
Su Qing roughly judged that this young man's strength should be that of a high-ranking knight, which is quite good for his age, even better than Alan's.
But judging from their behavior, they don't seem to be hunting; they seem more like they're looking for something.
