Ma Xiaowan nodded as she said, "But we have to wait until dawn tomorrow. It is too dangerous to operate at night. We will return to the camp to spend the night tonight and make plans tomorrow."
"Why not now?" Fang Heng suggested: "We are also very interested in the reason why the dragon mosquitoes are entrenched, and we necromancers prefer the night."
Ma Xiaowan looked at Fang Heng, and her uneasiness suddenly rose to the extreme.
No way?
According to her original idea, the difficulty in entrusting the project was how to deal with a large number of dragon mosquitoes in the early stage.
The subsequent investigation mission is just an ordinary process for the Chamber of Commerce.
Who knows what stimulated these dragon mosquitoes to stay nearby.
The danger may exist, but it is most likely an accident.
Is it true that bad luck will befall you when you meet a necromancer?
Are there bigger troubles waiting for them in the forest?
Ma Xiaowan became confused.
Of course, if there are two powerful necromancers traveling together, the safety factor of the investigation will be greatly improved.
Just rumors from the outside world...
If you get too close to the Necromancer, the disaster will become more severe as time goes by.
Fang Heng didn't think it mattered.
He can complete the mission with or without these mercenary groups.
He just wondered why Ma Xiaowan was so entangled.
Ma Xiaowan took a deep breath and decided not to believe in these ghosts and ghosts.
"Okay, please give us some time. We will set off immediately in half an hour."
"good."
…
Early in the morning.
Xisai Forest.
Four fused tyrants opened the way ahead.
Behind is a group of swaying zombies.
The moonlight is quite clear tonight, illuminating the way forward.
You can vaguely hear the chirping of insects in the forest.
After entering the Xisai Forest area, Fang Heng discovered that the plants here were much larger than those outside!
Along the way, several pharmacists who followed the team's exploration were crazy with joy. They stopped after only a few steps and picked medicinal materials along the trail.
After confirming that there were no players in the team, Mo Jiawei became bolder and started chatting briefly with the team members.
"The Xisai Forest still has no owner?" Mo Jiawei looked confused, "This area has never been occupied by anyone? No one knows where it is through the Xisai Forest?"
"Well, this area is now a no-nonsense zone." The guide nodded in response, "The first emperor Andrast who founded the empire once expanded the empire's territory everywhere, but he had never explored the Xisai Forest area, and he would also hope to
The Sai Forest area is set as a restricted area and no one is allowed to enter."
Mo Jiawei felt strange and asked: "Why is this?"
"Who knows, but there are a lot of rumors outside. It is said that Andrast was the daughter of a lord of a small divided country when she was young. The territory was invaded by foreign invaders, and the lord died in battle. She fled into Greece under the protection of her bodyguards.
Sai Forest.”
"The enemy wanted to eradicate the enemy, so he sent his legions across the Xisai Forest to pursue them."
"Later, something seemed to happen in the forest. The army suffered heavy casualties. Everyone thought Andrast was dead. Unexpectedly, she reappeared three years later and established the Malkhite Empire dynasty."
The guide shrugged as he said, "I think it may be because she has some special feelings for this forest."
Mo Jiawei's eyelids jumped after hearing this, and he thought: "The story is a bit strange. Could it be that she got some powerful power from the forest?"
"Well..."
The guide nodded and continued: "Don't tell me, there are actually many rumors like this outside."
"real?"
"Well, Emperor Andrast built an extremely vast underground mausoleum before his death. It is said that the scale is unprecedented. Those who participated in the construction of the mausoleum were secretly executed. There are also many rumors that Andrast was killed before his death.
She showed many abnormalities, and some people even saw her with their own eyes..."
"Ahem." Ma Xiaowan coughed lightly and interrupted: "These are all baseless rumors. The empire has always been taboo about Andrast, so it's better not to talk about it too much."
Fang Heng, who had been silent all this time, turned around and said, "I'm very interested, please continue."
"Oh, it's not a big deal actually." The guide chuckled, "There are rumors outside that the emperor made a deal with an evil force in the forest and gained powerful power. The mausoleum built by the emperor before his death was
An evil ritual, she has already sacrificed her soul to the devil."
"Some people even say that the blood of the entire Andrast family is filled with demon blood. But forget it, every descendant of Andrast has extremely strong fighting talent."
"False, all false, just rumors from outside."
The deputy of the mercenary group, Kuno, shook his head repeatedly and said: "When it comes to combat talent, it is just a special Qi training system passed down by the imperial family. Besides, we have been to Xisai Forest dozens of times, and we have come to so many forests.
I've checked it out, and there's nothing wrong with it. If I hear it, it's fake, otherwise we would have made a fortune long ago."
"Hahaha." The guide laughed loudly, "You don't have to tell the truth so clearly. These are just rumors from outside. Just treat them as conversation topics after dinner."
"Times have changed. Many high-end medicinal materials in the Xisai Forest are urgently needed by the empire, and the external purchase prices are ridiculously high."
"In addition to medicinal materials, there is red paulownia wood. This kind of wood not only has the effect of repelling insects but also emits a delicate fragrance. It is cherished by the princes and nobles. There are also red paulownia trees outside the Xisai Forest, but few are as good as Xisai.
It grows so big in the forest."
Fang Heng glanced at the pharmacist of the mercenary group who was busy collecting, and felt strangely itchy in his heart.
Boy, this is a profitable business!
He has a large number of zombie clones, and his collection skills have been upgraded to the full level 20 in Zombie Apocalypse.
If you can collect wood and medicinal materials in exchange for money...
Unfortunately, the trial has a time limit.
Besides, he couldn't really coo at Wei Tao for too long.
If it affects the main mission, the gain outweighs the gain.
Don't be in a hurry, mark it, and it won't be too late to come back when the sixth-order space tearing device is completed.
A lot of medicinal materials were harvested along the way. Several pharmacists were in a good mood and talked more.
"It would be better if we sealed it, otherwise so many people would flock in and destroy the ecological environment. How would it be our turn to collect and make money?"
"I haven't been here for a few months, and the drug is in a state of growth..."
Several people were talking together when suddenly, the buzzing sound came from the front again.
Dragon mosquito!
Fang Heng raised his eyebrows.
Ma Xiaoyu immediately raised his hand and signaled, "Shh! Don't talk!"
After it quieted down, the humming in the distance became clearer.
When everyone in the mercenary group heard the sound of the dragon mosquito, they immediately reacted, taking out their bows and arrows and pointing them at the dense forest ahead.
Buzz…
More than ten seconds later, hundreds of dragon mosquitoes emerged from the dense forest and rushed towards Fang Heng and the others.
