Chapter 273 Entering the Warcraft Forest
To reach the Monster Forest as quickly as possible, Team Light chose to travel at night. However, there were curfews between countries and cities, and the city gates were closed at night, making it impossible to pass through.
Therefore, Team Light could only follow the map, bypass the town, and take the wild roads.
The road in the wild was rugged and bumpy. It was not until midnight that the carriage stopped in front of a big tree. Everyone got off the carriage with sore backs, set up tents, and had a good sleep.
Only Farm was squatting alone in front of the fire, keeping watch for everyone.
It was extremely reluctant, but after all, it was a high-level magical beast. As long as it released the pressure of a powerful being, no magical beast would dare to approach without fear of death.
In addition, it is perfect for it to sleep in the Seal of the God of Fire during the day and keep watch at night.
Of course, Shu Li would not treat it badly.
A few days ago, I went back to the Elf Kingdom and packed a bunch of fresh fruits in a storage ring and brought them back to the Magic Academy. I gave some to other goblins and some to Farm.
Farm got the fruit grown by the elves, and was grinning from ear to ear. He was naturally happy to keep watch for Team Light.
If a monster really dares to come, it won’t be polite and will just treat it as a midnight snack.
During the day, the city gates were open and the carriages turned back to the official road, taking the town route. If you were lucky, you could even have lunch in a restaurant in the city.
On Friday evening, the carriage arrived safely at Diha Village near the Monster Forest.
Many adventurers came to Diha Village, boosting its economy and improving its infrastructure. After Shu Li and the others disembarked from the carriage, they looked at the bustling scene and suspected they had entered a town.
"Dear guests, do you need a hotel?"
Enthusiastic villagers surrounded them, vying to recommend their own hotels.
"Our hotel only costs one gold coin for a private room, two gold coins for a bathroom, and three gold coins for all three meals."
"Come to my house! I only want fifty silver coins!"
"Handsome man, do you need any special service? I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
"Want to drink? Come to our tavern. Ten glasses of dark beer for one gold coin. Absolutely affordable."
"Guest, do you need to board your carriage? Thirty silver coins a day, super cheap."
Faced with so many attentive villagers, the Light Team was flattered. Shuli and several boys protected Siti and Nasha, and reluctantly refused the invitations of other villagers and chose the carriage boarding service.
They had to enter the Monster Forest overnight and try to find the Sekhen Bird before noon tomorrow, so they had no time to stay overnight in the village.
When the villagers who had been hosting the carriage heard their plan, they were surprised and asked, "Sir, it's very dangerous to go into the forest at night. Do you really want to go in?"
Shu Li replied, "Thank you for your concern. We are in a hurry and have to go in. Here are thirty silver coins. Please take good care of our carriage. We will definitely be back tomorrow night."
The villager took the thirty silver coins, gave a few words of advice, and then took the carriage into the yard.
Shu Li and the others no longer hesitated, left the village, walked five or six hundred meters north, and stepped into the Warcraft Forest.
On the way here, they disguised themselves as ordinary travelers and wore cloth clothes. When they were about to arrive at Diha Village, they all changed into magic robes and hooded cloaks.
The last time they went to the Grand Canyon to do a gathering mission, they earned a lot of money. Before coming to the World of Warcraft Forest this time, Hector, Siti, Nasha and Ace all bought new magic robes and magic wands.
The five little fairies and the little dragon directly put on their high-level equipment.
Seleu and Harris used their usual equipment and weapons.
Since we are going deep into the forest, we will definitely have to deal with high-level monsters, so we must not take it lightly.
Farm squatted on Shu Li's shoulder, drowsy.
"Cheer up." Shu Li poked its round belly.
Farm opened his mouth, yawned loudly, and said nonchalantly, "There are only first- and second-level monsters nearby, don't be afraid."
"It's not a question of whether you're scared or not." Shu Li continued to poke its belly. "We have to hurry. We don't have time to waste on fighting monsters."
The main purpose of this adventure mission is to resolve the issue quickly.
Farm had no choice but to release the pressure to scare the monsters below level three.
Sure enough, within a moment, there was a commotion nearby, and the low-level monsters hiding in the dark and preparing to attack the adventurers were all frightened and fled in all directions.
"Hey, it's really convenient to have Farm!" said Budno.
The journey was smooth and unobstructed. Apart from a few magical plants blocking the way, we didn't see any magical beasts.
Angel summoned two balls of light that floated above his head and followed his movements, providing good lighting for their nighttime travel.
"This is the first time I've walked so smoothly in the Warcraft Forest." Harris sighed.
Before he became the royal magician of Cecilia, he also joined an adventure team and went on expeditions in search of treasures.
He has been to the Warcraft Forest no less than ten times, and each time was extremely thrilling.
When he learned that the prince and his teammates were going into the Warcraft Forest to look for the Sek'en bird, he was initially opposed.
The territory of the Sekhen bird is basically in the center of the forest, and the center of the forest is entrenched with countless high-level magical beasts, which are powerful and no less powerful than the magic saints.
It is said that there is a nine-headed demon snake in it that is comparable to the god of magic. Any adventure team that encounters it will die, and the only one who escaped is a high-level swordsman.
However, he was seriously injured, missing arms and legs, and was so unconscious and talking nonsense that no one believed him.
Harris analyzed the horrors of the Monster Forest to Seryu, hoping that he would give up the idea of going to the forest. However, Seryu insisted on his own opinion and showed the true strength of Team Light to convince him.
No matter how powerful the nine-headed demon snake is, it will be no match for the fire god mount that is beyond the tenth level.
Harris was persuaded.
He hadn't gone out on an adventure for a long time, and since this was a rare opportunity, he agreed to go on a mission with Team Light.
After all, he had been to the Warcraft Forest many times and was experienced. He roughly knew the location of the territory of the Seken Bird. With him leading the way, things would be much easier.
They had been walking for over an hour since they entered the Warcraft Forest and had not encountered any obstacles.
This was the most arrogant adventure team he had ever seen.
"Of course! As long as I'm here, you can just walk sideways." Farm raised his head and chest proudly.
Siti couldn't help but reach out and hold it, kneading it hard in her arms.
The chubby little baby beast looks so cute.
"Let...let go!" Farm struggled.
"Hehe, the belly is so soft." Siti squeezed it like a ball. Farm felt hopeless and finally gave up.
Seeing this, the others all laughed in good faith.
Harris laughed and shook his head, then used the light ball to check the surrounding trees.
Seleu asked in confusion, "What are you looking at?"
Harris pointed to the scratches on a nearby tree trunk. "This is a mark left by an adventurer."
After entering the forest, adventurers will habitually leave marks along the way to avoid getting lost.
If a high-level monster is found nearby, it will be marked to warn those who come later.
Seleu took a closer look and saw three scratches on the trunk. "What does this mean?"
Harris said: "We have entered the territory of a third-level monster."
"Hey, is that true?" Everyone gathered around and looked at the tree trunk.
Kumandi took a small notebook and took notes all the time.
Others followed suit, carefully drawing and annotating on paper.
Harris: ...
I always feel like I have become a mentor, taking a group of children on a field course in the World of Warcraft Forest.
Seeing Harris's surprised expression, Seryu patted his shoulder and whispered in his ear, "You'll get used to it."
Harris nodded.
After Shu Li finished taking notes, he looked up and saw the two of them huddled together, their heads almost touching.
He blinked.
Seleu and Harris have such a good relationship, they are very close!
"What's wrong?"
Ace, who was standing next to him, asked in a low voice.
"Uh." Shu Li came back to his senses, quickly looked away, and shook his head, saying, "No, it's okay."
He didn't know why, but his attention was always drawn to Seleu and Harris.
You can't blame him for being sensitive; it's just that the way they get along is so natural and intimate that it makes people unable to help but imagine things.
How could Shu Li have the nerve to tell others about his guess?
It would be so embarrassing if it was a misunderstanding.
He glanced at Hector with resentment.
If it weren't for what happened to him, I wouldn't think everyone is gay.
The little goblin was helpless and sighed.
Ace looked at Seleu and Harris who were whispering together, thinking about something.
Take notes and the team moves on.
Although this is the territory of the third-level monsters, they are intimidated by Farm and dare not show their heads. They can only hide in the caves and tremble.
Two hours later, Team Light set up camp by a stream.
They need rest.
We lit a fire, ate some dry food, and looked at the map.
"We are probably here." Harris pointed to a point on the map.
Shu Li looked down and asked in surprise, "We've only walked one-tenth of the distance in three hours?"
It is still a long distance to the center of the forest, and it is even a question whether we can reach it by noon tomorrow.
Unless you stay up all night and travel all night.
The elves and dragons didn't care, but the human teammates were obviously tired, and Siti and Nasha were yawning.
"Actually... you don't have to go to the center of the forest." Ace drew a large circle on the map with his slender fingers. "In fact, the territory of the Sekon bird is very large."
The Sekhen bird is a high-level magical bird that soars in the sky. As long as it wants, the entire magical forest is its hunting area.
The reason for going to the center of the forest is just to increase the probability of encountering the Secken bird.
"You mean... we can just walk here?" Shu Li compared the distance and found that the circle drawn by Ace was two hours away from their current location.
"Can you imitate the call of the Sekon bird?" asked Ace.
"Huh?" Shu Li was stunned.
"Imitate the call of the Secken bird?" Hector slapped his palm. "Yeah! Didn't you say you raised five Secken birds?"
Bird dealers use false calls to deceive birds when they catch them, and they can use the same method to attract sekhun birds.
Shu Li understood, her eyes sparkling. "That's a good idea!"
Why hadn't he thought of this approach before?
Having raised sekken birds for more than ten years, I am familiar with their calls and know which frequencies represent which emotions.
"I know, I know!" Disio raised his hand. "Chirp—chirp—that's a greeting!"
"I can do it too!" Angel was not willing to be outdone. He pouted his lips and kept making bird sounds.
"It's because I'm hungry."
"This is to rub it."
"It's about to fly—"
“This is anger.”
Budno joined the ranks of "Chirp".
"This is a demonstration before the fight!"
Suddenly, the camp was filled with the calls of the Secken bird, which the four goblins imitated perfectly.
"sharp!"
The human teammates gave a thumbs-up in admiration.
Harris murmured in disbelief: "It's exactly the same."
“Chi——————”
Suddenly, a shrill cry came from a distance, with a strong sense of protest, which frightened the goblins so much that they shut their mouths.
No way?
Did it really attract the Secken bird?
