Entering the wilderness of the Forbidden Demon Land, Tang Shidao slowly discovered that his role was not that big, and he was just a mere presence. Turning on the eagle's eye aura to detect demons and clairvoyance brought great help to the group, but after that, he had nothing to do with him.
That's it. In terms of experience, physical strength, and combat power, I am at the bottom in every aspect. Master Wolfsbane is weaker than me, but he has rich experience.
During a full night's rest.
Every once in a while, Hu Ying and Xiang Mian would wake up from their eyes closed, and one or two people would work together to rush towards the surrounding areas where there was the sound of gravel, the collision of iron pieces, or the screams of pain, chasing down those who had stepped on the trap.
of prey.
In rocky areas, they also do not lay killing traps.
Tang Shidao saw with his own eyes that they hung some small iron pieces, piled up some small piles of gravel, or placed sharpened wooden points at certain key positions. Master Wolfsbane was not idle either, he found some blades of grass,
Drop two drops of different medicines, and then place them on a path that is sheltered from the wind but must be passed by. It is conceivable that as long as a creature accidentally touches the two drops of similar medicines and mixes them into one drop, a chemical reaction will occur and a strong smell will be emitted.
Don't say people are so big.
Even if a snake or mouse crawls over and touches the leaves, two drops of different chemicals will blend together to emit a stink warning.
It's hard to say whether Tiger Shadow and Elephant Face can smell it, but Master Wolfsbane himself can definitely smell it.
The night is not even half over.
Tang Shidao has silently counted twenty-six attacks. There are no large troops, only small teams of three to five. Huying and Xiangmian were not injured. It seems that this is just a harassment, not a real attack.
originally.
Even if this annoying attack is ineffective, it can cause mental breakdown.
but.
There is no magic in the Forbidden Demon Land, and the alien beasts obviously do not understand the existence of mages. In the middle of the night, there were twenty-six attacks, and Tang Shidao fell asleep twenty-seven times. Unless Hu Ying and Xiang Mian took action, there would be no chance of anything happening.
There is no need to open your eyes. It is impossible for a void monster to harass a mage, especially a person like Tang Shidao who has mastered advanced meditation skills.
in a general sense.
The mind of a mage is absolutely very strong. Some people can resist hypnosis, fear, charm and other effects by their own will without any resistance.
Ordinary people may be afraid of darkness, silence, death and blood, etc.
A mage has absolutely no such fear.
Not to mention corpses and dark spaces, even if a ghost really jumps out, the mage will not tremble slightly. Because of skeletons, zombies, ghosts, horror armor, dead space, vampire blood pools, corpse hybrids, strange trolls, and maggots
The ocean, the bloody sky, etc., all the terrible things you can imagine, to the mage are... leftovers from my play!
A minor thing like mental annoyance is not even as big as a buzzing mosquito to a mage.
Attack once.
Tang Shidao woke up once and then fell asleep again, not taking it seriously at all.
Compared to Tang Shidao, who fell asleep 27 times out of 26 attacks, Master Wolfsbane was ten times more nervous. He only woke up five times. Four times, Hu Ying and Xiang Mian both left, and there was no resting camp.
Guard. The remaining time was when he smelled a strange odor with his nose and woke up to instruct Huying to hunt down the infiltrators. The rest of the time, Master Wolfsbane felt at ease and completely left the safety to Huying and Xiangmian.
Not easy.
The night passed peacefully.
The four people in the group, including Tang Shidao, were all in high spirits, and it didn't look like they had experienced forty-seven battles at all.
"Owl, I'm surprised you don't feel tired." Xiangmian sighed.
As a newcomer.
On this kind of night, it's really shocking that they can still be energetic the next day despite constant attacks. You know, they didn't dare to close their eyes on the first night, staring at the wilderness for fear of what would happen next.
A strange beast pounces on me in seconds. Although I am not afraid, I can't let go of my desire to bring trouble.
"If you sleep well, you will feel refreshed." Tang Shidao didn't pretend to be pretentious, he really slept well.
"I was in the wild, and I didn't fall asleep until the night of the seventeenth day. I usually only dare to squint during the day." Huying also expressed his admiration.
"I didn't dare sleep for the past two months, including during the day." Wolfsbane Master is not afraid of being exposed. Alchemist's combat power is too low, and he is much timid than the soldiers.
Tang Shidao smiled and said nothing.
A group of people are on their way.
What a coincidence.
The Silver Hand Alchemist and his group were also on the same road, and there were other teams around them. Seeing Tang Shidao and his group in good spirits, Silver Hand, who was a little blind, couldn't help but feel angry. He thought that he was the proud son of the Alchemist Mage Tower.
It was so embarrassing to be 'defeated' by a newbie and an alchemy enthusiast.
In his heart, Silverhand couldn't understand it either.
What does the Alchemist and Mage Tower mean by allowing yourself to 'practice' in a place like this? You can't bring out your highest level of skills at all. The only ones that can be used are the dregs of failed medicines that are usually thrown away.
As the two teams approached, Silverhand looked more and more unhappy.
"The surrounding teams are all leading newcomers, and the competition is about to begin." Master Wolfsbane suddenly said.
"Is there still a competition?" Silver Hand frowned upon hearing this.
"Yes, it's about whoever dies first and who can go the furthest." Master Wolfsbane reminded him sincerely, but it was very harsh in Silver Hand's ears.
"Hmph, are you doubting my level?" Silver Hand snorted angrily.
Master Wolfsbane stopped talking.
Tang Shidao wanted to laugh a little: What level does an alchemist need in the Forbidden Demon Land? All he needs is knowledge and experience.
I couldn't help but feel a little strange when I heard about the competition.
Elephant Face whispered: "In order to encourage the team to go further in the wild, each war fortress will have a special reward. Owl, just imagine that we are all participating teams, and whoever goes closest is the winner. Because all nearby teams have
There are newcomers, so the hidden rule is: if there is a dead person in the team, it is equal to being eliminated. Only the team without dead people can reach the end."
Tang Shidao understood: "Once there is a deceased person, the team must escort him back to resurrect him, right?"
Xiangmian nodded: "Yes, it must be sent back as soon as possible. If the body is snatched away, it must be snatched back as soon as possible. If the team has too many casualties, the sentry will have to ask for help from the surrounding teams. If the sentry dies, the hunter will go and ask for it.
When we see a small team battle, we have an obligation to help. If it is too dangerous, we have to help notify other teams or war fortresses. We cannot turn a blind eye."
Tang Shidao understood that everyone needed to help each other in the wild: "Then are we falling behind? It seems that some teams left without stopping last night."
Xiang Mian was surprised: "You actually noticed that there was a team rushing all night. Haha, you really don't look like a newcomer. No, we are not behind. It doesn't matter how much we rush, whoever can make it to the end is the winner. We
No one is sleepy, no one is wounded, no tools are lost, no weapons are lost, no potions are used up, this is victory.”
Hu Ying also spoke: "Generally speaking, the winner is the one who is safe and sound the next day. Look at the people around you."
Tang Shidao turned his head and paid attention to his surroundings.
The scattered team began to gather towards the main road, which was considered a meeting on the first night of Nojuku.
At this moment.
Many teams had mentally sleepy people, such as Silverhand. Some team members were injured, and some members were missing their backpacks. Some team members were sleeping and walking, and the whole team looked terrible.
Not as good as before. Compared with the high spirits yesterday, their mental state is much worse now.
Tang Shidao noticed.
Those who are injured, those who are sleepy, and those who walk while sleeping are often veterans.
The new recruits in their group were intact and well protected. They only looked nervously at both sides of the road for fear of being attacked by unknown strange beasts.
"You won last night, but I will get used to it." Silver Hand snorted softly, and walked faster.
The mage's will is strong, and Silverhand is a member of the Alchemist Mage Tower. Even if he is arrogant and arrogant, his own level is still there. If it were not for the restriction of magic energy in the Forbidden Demon Land, the contrast would be too great, and he would not lose his position.
Tang Shidao was completely used to it.
One is the reason for practicing meditation, and the other is... living in Zulong Kingdom is a world without magic, and there is nothing wrong with ordinary people.
Second night.
The situation was similar to the night before, with slightly more attacks.
Then join the main road.
Tang Shidao found that some of the team was missing, and about a third of it was missing. Silverhand's team was very strong, and except for Silverhand who couldn't sleep well, the other orcs were fine. As they passed by, the Yingman sentry reminded Tang Shidao:
"You are very good, but you have to be careful tonight. The novice team is a little smaller, the veterans are rushing all night, and they are farther away from us. It will be a lot more lively tonight."
Tang Shidao nodded: "Thank you."
Keep on your way.
At night, as expected, the atmosphere is completely different.
Master Wolfsbane took the initiative and said: "I'll guard half of it. The first half of the night is more troublesome, so I'll sleep for the rest of the night."
Xiang Mian continued: "Then I'll sleep for the rest of the night."
Hu Ying used his double blades to show that I wouldn't sleep: "I'm going to walk around a few times, and you guys should be careful about any fish that slip through the net."
Tang Shidao knew that he could not help. He had not yet understood the nature of the Forbidden Demon Land. Mixing things in and doing things randomly would only cause trouble. Now he only needed to recognize, learn, and become familiar with it, and finally get used to the way of survival in the wild.
Now even if he offers to help, his teammates don't trust him to do the work.
It was a lively night.
There were screams all around, but none of them came from Hu Ying.
Occasionally, some fish that slipped through the net broke in, and Xiang Mian easily dealt with them. In the second half of the night, the attacks decreased slightly. Wolfsbane master repelled several attacks without using weapons and only used poison. Xiang Mian also slept peacefully and did not wake up.
It seems that the Alchemist teammates are just as reliable.
Another day.
The reassembled team is less than one-fifth of yesterday's, and most of them are gone.
Silverhand's team is still there.
In Tang Shidao's team, Huying slept while walking during the day, occasionally opening his eyes. He was not too tired, and Tang Shidao felt that he was pretending, as if he was deliberately pretending to show someone. Naturally, the team traveling with him did not need to do this, Huying
If Ying is pretending on purpose, he must be deceiving his enemies who are watching him around.
"It's not easy to persist for three days. Be careful on the fourth night and ask for help at any time." The Eagle Sentinel reminded again.
Silver Hand had no objection, he was too tired to say anything. Tang Shidao's team was missing a sentry, and it was appropriate for the Yingren sentry to remind him. Competition is competition, and we are not enemies, but allies in the same camp.
soon.
As night fell on the fourth day, each team subconsciously did not move too far apart.
night.
Tang Shidao and his party still had Xiang Mian guarding Wolfsbane Division first and then the Wolf Poison Division. Xiang Mian withstood the most difficult pressure in the first half of the night. Tiger Shadow still roamed around and kept hunting all night. After finally surviving the night, they reunited the next day.
...Only two teams, Silver Hand and Tang Shidao, are left.
Huying was injured.
Both arms were bleeding, and Wolfsbane Master's potion barely stopped the bleeding, and it would take several days to heal.
Tang Shidao had a wry smile on his face... The worst healing potions on the Mage Network can heal injuries instantly, even broken bones and missing flesh. Now, the potions used are not as good as those in Dihuangxing Hospital. This forbidden demon
This place is really unreasonable, all the advantages of Mage Network are gone here.
While no one is paying attention.
Tang Shidao walked to Huying, who was sleeping and walking, and whispered: "Huying, did you cut your wounds yourself?"
Huying was slightly startled, then returned to normal.
There was no answer, just a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he admitted it.
"There is movement underground." Tang Shidao whispered again.
After that, continue walking in small steps.
Hu Ying was stunned even longer when he heard this, and his heart was already filled with ups and downs... Even Poison Master and Xiang Mian didn't notice the movement underground, but Owl, a newcomer, actually noticed it? Haha, he is indeed a wizard who can derive special halo effects.
, to be able to be so calm and calm in such a bad situation where demons are forbidden.
It looks like the team formation is interesting this time.
Maybe, those things that I couldn't find teammates to explore together before... I might have made up my mind this time.
