The wind howls in the desolate wilderness, and a dozen gray-black dots are slowly moving forward. They almost blend into the gray environment. If you don't observe carefully, you will ignore them.

Lorraine was in this small team, following the captain on foot with great enthusiasm. Different from the previous escape-like migrations, this hiking trip had too many extraordinary details.

First of all, everyone’s backpacks are full of food and drink. This is the basis for the team to keep moving forward. Secondly, although several people in the team are not familiar with each other, they can help each other, support each other, and even encourage each other.

The leader of the team was also a young man, about 20 years old. Lorraine didn't even know the other person's name, but he listened to the other person's story about Harmony Village and the Black Forest.

The thrilling plot made everyone in the team forget the pain of traveling far away. Because every sentence was simple and simple, close to the lives of poor people. Everyone listened carefully, and the more they listened, the more fascinated they became, and they felt the same.

The captain said that he went to the Black Forest because he had no other choice, but no human settlement would accept a waste like him with no skills, so he had no choice but to work in the Voodoo Swamp.

After seeing the swamp that swallowed countless creatures, he felt that one day he would become the mud in the swamp.

"The swamp is a terrible place. It is difficult for people living there to survive more than half a year. Many people even go crazy on the day they arrive. I don't want to think about how I survived it now. Those things were too terrible.

One day Victor Hugo came and he saved us and the whole village. I was punished with hard labor for hiding the goods of the profiteer Rubio, but I was still very happy. Thinking about it now, at that time

How stupid.

I followed Mr. Hugo out of the Voodoo Swamp, but I couldn't get on the carriage, so I had to walk on two legs with an empty stomach. It was miserable at that time, many people gave up halfway or died. Now I have food and drink,

We are all safe."

The young captain was quite optimistic. He asked everyone to take a five-minute break every hour to eat some food and water. Normally, everyone would be happy to take a break. But there were no stories to listen to during the break. Instead, everyone ate and drank, and instead rushed on the road.

The captain happily took out the can of stamina potion and took a sip, and then cursed, "This damn thing is so powerful." The team members also took a sip and imitated the curse. After the curse, they felt warm all over and became even more powerful.

Relax.

Lorraine was carrying a backpack that did not match her thin figure and shouted urgently: "Captain, continue. When you arrived at the iron mine, did you really see the elf ruins?"

The young captain smiled but did not continue telling the story. He took out a map from his backpack, spread it out, put a compass on it, and determined the direction of travel before setting off again.

Lorraine was very curious, and then asked: "Captain, what were you looking at just now?"

"There are no roads in the wilderness, and we are not familiar with geography, so we must have a map." The captain replied with a smile, "Your Excellency Hugo trained the militiamen to read maps a long time ago. I am relatively stupid, and I am not very good at using them after learning for several months.

"

Maps are really a rarity for the illiterate people at the bottom of society. The rookies in the team found it even more magical when they learned that they could determine their own position with a map.

Zhou Qingfeng had a headache because of the map. Drawing a map is a time-consuming and labor-intensive job that requires professional knowledge and a lot of surveying and mapping. He had nothing and could only open his eyes and look at the vast sky and earth.

Cyric transformed into 'Master Modi' and wandered around the Northland. Zhou Qingfeng once swallowed his soul. Although he spit it out again, he still absorbed a lot of information and used it to understand the geographical environment of the Northland.

After arriving in Cold Wind City, Zhou Qingfeng discovered that even the caravans traveling north and south were very lacking in geographical knowledge. Mastering a certain smooth trade route was like mastering a gold mine, and it was a secret that would not be easily told to outsiders.

Some caravans will launch extremely bloody vendettas among themselves, just to control the geographical information rights of a certain area and prevent outsiders from entering their territory.

Zhou Qingfeng organized a transportation team. With enough strength and good skills, he spent nearly a month only roughly sketching the road leading to the Black Forest from the north of Cold Wind City, and the book charm Sophia produced the corresponding map.

The crude map does not even have longitude and latitude lines, only rough mountains, rivers, roads and other major landmarks. The captain must strictly follow the landmarks on the map to move forward, otherwise it is easy to lose direction.

But having a map is different from not having one. If you know where you are, you will know how far you are from your destination, and you can arrange your time reasonably without panicking.

"Don't worry, Mr. Hugo has long expected that we will evacuate from Cold Wind City one day. I have walked this evacuation route in advance, and with the map, I promise to take you to your destination."

The captain continued to tell the story of the Black Forest, and the rookies were even more fascinated. The fatigue of the journey was all forgotten, and only the hearts were burning. But just a few hundred meters away from them, Phils led a dozen of his subordinates to rush out of the thick fog, his eyes

Scanning the wilderness indifferently.

"How can these damn bastards run so fast?" Phils looked angry and frosty. He was not afraid of the cold wind and fatigue, but he could not catch up with the target. The horse he was riding was so tired that he snorted.

, no longer willing to continue running.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and in a gray environment, the human eye's vision declined significantly. Phils failed to see the target that was receding a few hundred meters away, but fell into a new difficulty - he lost his direction.

The problem that Zhou Qingfeng tried his best to overcome now fell on Phils. Even though he was only about ten kilometers away from Cold Wind City, the deputy city lord became at a loss.

Direction, direction!

As soon as it gets dark, without the guidance of the sun, moon and stars, the road is the most important landmark. But the refugee team just leaves the road. Without advance preparation, even the local guide can easily get lost in the cold wind of the north.

The topography outside the wilderness was very similar, and it was difficult to determine where he was from the vast field of vision. Phils looked around and saw only hillsides, grasslands, and woods. He cracked his horsewhip,

Angry but helpless.

Old Bank followed Phils, also frowning. He did point out the path for the refugee team to escape, but the dense fog that appeared and appeared in the wilderness became the biggest obstacle. When the team got out of the thick fog, everything in the southeast, northwest and northwest

Can't tell the difference.

"Mr. Bank, can you still use the 'positioning technique'?" Phils turned around and asked.

Old Bank shook his head, "I didn't expect to face a pursuit today, and the 'biolocation technique' I prepared has been used up. Phils, give up. Victor Hugo made preparations in advance. We rushed to catch up.

There’s no guarantee we’ll be able to catch him.”

This conclusion was like a bucket of cold water being poured down on him, and Phils felt discouraged. He had to admit that his opponent's plan was almost perfect and his every move was accurately calculated.

In his hazy consciousness, Phils felt that a group of untouchables could travel long distances in the wild. This was a very scary thing. But he couldn't tell what was so scary.
