The emerald green forest dream once again gained peace and calm. After three years of confrontation, the Burning Mage's exhausted retreat put an end to this meaningless battle, although many people did not understand the reason why the war ended.
, but when the prompt sound of the end of the regional mission sounded, the whole forest boiled.
In the early morning of the third day, before the light mist was dispersed by the sun, on the dark land of the Scorched Wood Forest, the Archdruid awarded the last remaining players the rewards they deserved, some with rich
Magic ornaments with a natural scent - simple but precious.
At that time, a mage in a black velvet robe slowly walked through the crowd holding a twisted cane. As he moved forward, the bottom of the cane made a rustling sound when it touched the dead leaves on the ground. The robe
Under the black shadow, the mage pursed his lips indifferently. His eyes looked past the excited players and into the distance...
In the distance, under the early morning fog, the charred wood forest has gained new vitality. Perhaps green shoots are preparing to burst out of the ground, allowing the dead forest to be covered with the new green of life again. But the price paid for this is even more.
There were so many things, the mage saw the elves kneeling on the ground, crystal tears pouring from the corners of their eyes, forming strings of precious beads.
The mage was touched in his heart. He stretched out his pale and slender left hand and pulled the edge of the soft hood, but his eyes remained in that direction. He watched the elves carefully scatter the tree seeds on the ground, and each tree seed was scattered at the same time.
, mixed with flashes of tears.
The archdruid noticed this mage, he handed over the task of distributing rewards to his companions, and then separated from the crowd and walked towards this side.
The mage glanced in that direction and decided to lower his head and continue moving forward. Just as he started to take steps, the deep voice of the Archdruid came from behind.
"My friend, we will always welcome you, and the forest dream will always open its door to you."
The mage nodded, his soft hood rising and falling with this movement, and then his figure disappeared into the depths of the forest...
A string of shining sparks burst out from the fireplace, and a slight noise interrupted Xiao Fen's memories. His eyes turned to the simple wooden amulet held between his slender fingers. It was a wood carving engraved with the unique symbols of elves.
The texture of the wood carving is naturally smooth and natural, and there is a faint magical fluctuation on it. This kind of fluctuation can only be felt when you experience it carefully.
"Sacred talisman of life, high-level magic item, physical strength increased by 50%, flexibility +1, natural defense +2, additional skills: animal friendliness." He gently read the properties of the wooden talisman, and then showed a satisfied smile. This one
The amulet was the reward he got from the Archdruid. From the attribute point of view, it was not only worthy of its worth of 7,000 GP, but also very suitable for him. Especially the attribute that increased his physical strength by 50%. It was simply tailor-made for him.
, you no longer have to worry about your physical strength.
But the animal friendly skill is a bit interesting. It is a passive skill that allows animal enemies to show a neutral attitude to the player without first expressing hostility.
"Although it's useless, it's still somewhat useful. At least it can avoid a lot of dangers." He knocked on the table with his other hand, raised his head, and cast his eyes through the window of the hut into the dark night sky. In the past few days,
The weather is dry and clear, and you can always see many stars at night.
It has been four days since we left Forest Dream, and the area is already close to Green Town, but the twinkling starry sky has not changed at all and seems to always be the same.
"Under the same starry sky, I wonder what they are doing right now?" Such a thought flashed through Xiao Fen's mind.
…………
At this time, also under the starry night of Oras, the wrought iron and wild stones that had learned their lesson crossed the Big Valley with great difficulty. They arrived at the Jinghu area, but obviously their camping skills were not used.
I have made some progress during this period of training.
"Hey! Hey! Stone, be careful!" the dwarf roared and jumped over the bonfire, stopping the clumsy barbarian from setting up his tent.
The barbarian wiped his sweat, sat down slumped, panted, and began to drink water in large gulps.
The dwarf looked at the barbarian's tent - it was crooked; then he looked at his own - it was almost unusable. He scratched his beard and muttered: "Okay! Stone, your tent is too rough! It's not at all possible.
Unable to use!" As he said this, he threw the ax aside and sat down next to the orc.
Manshi turned around and smiled at him, then turned his attention to the pieces of meat roasting on the bonfire. The skin of the pieces of meat was already golden, and the oil and water dripped down the stick into the fire, making a sizzling sound from time to time.
Wrought Iron also glanced at the delicious-looking barbecue, opened his mouth, swallowed, then rubbed his hands and said: "Oh! Stone, I said the tent you set up is useless... But, I -
Great dwarf! I can reluctantly exchange with you, yes, I feel aggrieved!"
Manshi glanced at the dwarf again and shook his head firmly.
"Hey!" Wrought Iron scratched his head in embarrassment, "I'm doing this for your own good! Man!"
Manshi was unmoved. He just looked at the barbecue. It was obvious that the dwarf's proposal did not arouse his interest.
The dwarf, who couldn't succeed in his plot, began to complain dissatisfiedly. While muttering, he unfolded a map that he could barely read - although there was no difference between having a map and not having a map.
circle.
The dwarf pointed on the map with rough fingers, and kept chattering. Finally, his topic fell on the silver-haired female mage a few days ago. He smacked his lips, suddenly raised his head and asked roughly: "
Shi Shi, why did that silver-haired girl find that cunning guy? Oh, I always have a bad feeling?" He blew his beard and remembered that he and Man Shi had betrayed Palin's position for two blankets.
In fact, he touched his back and felt a little cold.
"I hope that incompetent captain will never find out about this little secret... Yes, it's a little secret!" The dwarf's voice lowered, and even he didn't quite believe what he said.
"Oh! We will be in bad luck!" The dwarf suddenly thought of Xiao Fen's malicious eyes, and he held his head in annoyance.
Manshi glanced at the dwarf again and nodded in agreement...

When the dwarves were worried about their future, in the north of the City of God of War, near a forest, three happy girls gathered beside a burning bonfire. They talked happily, and their chirping voices continued to spread around.
Yuan - okay, I admit it, in fact there were only two girls chirping.
From time to time, there was a crackling sound in the bonfire, and the sparks exploded, making the faces of the three beautiful girls glow red.
Quiet Snow organized the equipment and backpacks of the three of them and put them neatly aside. The weapons and shields were placed very close to her hands for easy access at any time. After doing all this, she sat quietly
Beside the fire, he looked at the little girl holding her little hand and talking to Ke'er with a satisfied look.
"I wonder what Brother Palin is doing at this time?" As he spoke, the topic of the little girl came back to Xiao Fen for the fourth time.
Ke'er burst out laughing. She stretched out her finger and tapped the little girl's head, "It's the fourth time! It's the fourth time!"
The little girl's face turned red. She looked as cute as a ripe apple through the orange light of the bonfire. She stammered and explained: "I...I just asked, it's not...
…It’s nothing!”
"Tch! You're trying to hide it!" Ke'er deliberately squinted her eyes and took out her delicate hands and shook them in front of her face. "I didn't say anything about the fourth time... Why are you so nervous?"
"You! Badass sister!" The little girl finally realized that she was being played by her sister Ke'er. She immediately shouted and pounced on her. The two girls quickly laughed and fought.
Xue looked at them, smiled and shook her head, but at this moment the face of a certain mage flashed through her heart, and she would gently lower her head, feeling a trace of happiness in her heart.
At this moment, the female elf ranger suddenly pushed the little girl away, and at the same time unhooked the beautiful black long bow from behind with quick movements. She set up the arrow and glanced coldly towards a nearby bush.
.
"Who! Come out!" She shouted coldly.
"Ladies, no... don't worry, I'm a player... I don't mean any harm!" A deep voice came from behind the black shadows of several trees, and then a man walked out from there with an awkward smile.
He waved his hands and said, "It's just... I just happened to meet him."
Ke'er stepped back alertly, and warned in a low voice: "Don't move! Answer my question first!"
The man stopped and raised his hands to show that he meant no harm.
"It's you!" The little girl suddenly jumped up from the ground, with a hint of surprise in her voice.
Xue looked at the man and frowned. She lowered her head and seemed to remember something...
…………
Back near Green Town, in the cozy cabin of the magic structure, Xiao Fen, who was copying a scroll, suddenly raised his head, moved his slender fingers, and frowned, as if he felt something.
"Wow -" He closed his spell book a little annoyed, then put the quill on the other side, leaned back, and gently leaned against the wooden back of the chair.
"What was that sound just now... I hate who disturbs me at this time!" Then he looked out the window, it was pitch black, and he didn't find anything unusual.
Xiao Fen remained focused. He turned his ears and listened carefully - the surrounding space became silent, leaving only the sound of burning in the fireplace. After a pause, he shook his head, and picked up the quill with some doubts.
He opened the spell book to himself and muttered in a low voice: "It's weird, I obviously heard it."
The quill moved again, and some strange and twisted symbols were recorded on the yellowed parchment scroll as the pen tip beat. Xiao Fen copied it very carefully against his spell book, not daring to be careless at all. After all, as long as
Wrong writing of one symbol can mean the loss of a large sum of money.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" At this time, the wooden door of the hut rang without warning. Xiao Fen's hand trembled violently, and a scroll costing 49 GP was announced as being reimbursed.
"Asshole!" Xiao Fen slapped the pen on the table with a snap, almost destroying this high-end quill pen worth 5 SP.
"Bang! Bang!" The knock on the door became quieter, and after a while, a soft female voice came in: "Is there anyone there?"
"No one!" Xiao Fen yelled angrily over there.
As soon as Xiao Fen's roar ended, another funny and weird voice rang out: "Ah! Noble sir, come and save me...expose this woman - ah!!!" A scream replaced this sentence.
In the second half of the story, the soft female voice came in again: "Sir, I forgot my tent and sleeping bag... Can you take me in for one night?"
"Sorry, I can't believe you!" Xiao Fen said as he waved his hand, easily threw a silence spell over, and then buried his head and continued to copy.
The night gradually deepened, and after the knocking on the door was masked by magic, the surrounding area became quiet, leaving only the sound of the burning flame in the fireplace and the rustling of writing...
