Ronan, who was riding forward while checking the newly unlocked achievement system, had no idea that the danger was coming.
The achievement system is unlocked when Ronan kills an enemy for the first time. Anything Ronan does may trigger an achievement mission. Completing the achievement will give Ronan a series of rewards such as skills, expertise, and titles.
Ronan now triggers an achievement:
Hundreds of Killers: Kill one hundred people, 8/100, reward title Hundreds of Killers
When they reached the edge of the forest, the terrain inside was no longer suitable for horses to move around. Ronan could only loosen the reins, remove the vehicle from the horse, pat its butt and let it leave.
"I hope you can live a good life."
After releasing the war horses captured from the Eagle Kingdom, Ronan sorted out his equipment and supplies and walked into the forest. It would take nearly a month to cross the forest, and there were many ferocious beasts and alien tribes in the forest. Ronan
Before the time travel, he was just an ordinary citizen who grew up under the red flag. His experience of surviving in the wild only existed in the documentaries and novels he had read. Fortunately, the luggage of the Eagle Corpse Collection Team members included simple tents and mosquito repellents.
Incense can make Ronan feel better.
When Ronan entered the Jackdaw Forest, the eagle riders who were chasing him also arrived at the place where the previous battle took place. One of the horsemen dismounted and inspected the bodies of the soldiers killed by Ronan, and then inspected them again.
Check the traces in the direction Ronan left. After checking, he returned to the team and said to a rider next to Amuda:
"Sir, the target is very strong. Although these people are herdsmen recruited before the war and are not professional soldiers, our people are martial in nature and most of the people have skills. I checked the body and found that the wounds were very thin and not deep.
, Buxiang is a common weapon of the Gaoling people. He hits the target quickly and most of them are fatal in one hit, and he has good archery skills."
"Well, I understand. It seems that he is a tough guy. He pretended to die when he saw that he was invincible. Then after our large army left, he violently killed people and left. But where did his weapons and armor come from? We should take them with him when we leave.
Weapons and decent armor were all taken away? In which direction did he go?" the rider pondered for a moment and said.
"After I checked the surrounding traces, he should have gone to the Jackdaw Forest. He probably wanted to pass through the forest and enter the hinterland of Gaoling. It is less than a day's journey from the Jackdaw Forest. We should catch up now."
After listening to the explanations from his subordinates, the rider turned to look at Amuda. Amuda thought for a while and said: "Chase, if we can't find him within 5 days of entering the forest, we will return."
Hearing this, the rider nodded and waved to the team behind him. The man who had dismounted to check also got on his horse, and the whole team started marching in the direction Ronan left again.
At this time, Ronan was walking hard in the dense forest. Only hunters from nearby villages would enter this forest, and they would not go too deep. Ronan had no memory of the depths of the forest. He only heard about the forest.
The depths are very dangerous, with savage tribes, lizardmen, jackals and other alien races living there.
There were thick bushes at the edge of the forest, making Ronan's journey extremely difficult. He could only hold the machete seized from the corpse collection team and split the branches blocking the road while walking in. The branches scraped against Ronan's wooden armor and made a "swishing" sound.
sound.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Ronan finally walked out of the shrubbery and entered a relatively spacious forest. Trees were dotted on the ground. It was late spring and everything was flourishing. There were not many fallen leaves on the ground, revealing the black
of solid ground.
The trees here have not been cut down and have been growing freely for thousands of years. Many of the trees are hundreds of years old. The thick ones may require nearly ten people to hug them, and the thinnest ones are as thick as two people hugging each other. Therefore, in order to protect each other,
There is no competition for nutrients between them, and the distance between them is very large, leaving a lot of open space between the thick and intertwined roots exposed above the ground.
It was getting very late, and the forest at night was much more dangerous than during the day. Ronan didn't dare to risk traveling at night, so he found an open space with tree roots on three sides, and took out a tent, insect repellent, incense and other items from his backpack.
Arrange it.
Set up the tent, sprinkle some snake repellent powder around the tent, and light incense inside the tent. Then go outside and pick up some dry branches and some scattered dead leaves.
He piled dead branches together and surrounded them with gravel to make a simple bonfire. Then he threw dead leaves on top to use as a fire starter. Ronan took out the fire sticks he found in the luggage of the corpse collection team in his backpack and lit a fire.
, although summer is approaching, the nights in the forest are still cold. Without this fire, Ronan would probably have a hard time at night.
After lighting up the fire, Ronan took out the dry food and started eating it. The dry food issued to the soldiers by the Eagle Kingdom were all dry and hard bread made of thick flour mixed with some wild vegetables. They tasted tasteless and were difficult to swallow. They were rough.
After chewing the dough, the pancake passed through the esophagus, which made his throat hurt as if he had swallowed sand. Ronan had to drink water to finish the meal.
The dry food and water obtained from the corpse collection team were not enough to support Ronan through the forest. Fortunately, there were some pots and other cooking tools in their luggage, so Ronan could find water and food by himself.
After eating the dry food, Ronan opened the system's task panel, and the tasks had been refreshed.
Weekly Task 1: Forest Disaster
Kill ten wild animals.
Reward: Excellent hunting longbow, 500 experience
Weekly Task 2: Eliminate the pursuers
Destroy the pursuit team sent by the Eagle Kingdom.
Reward: Enable recruitment function, five senior Nord archers.
Weekly Task 3: Fearless
Kill one of the jackdaw forest's apex predators: the dire black bear
Reward: Belt of Bear Strength, 1000 experience.
System upgrade task: Statement Yuanyang
Have a high reputation among a country.
Reward: The system is upgraded to Glory Cavalry and Blade 2.0
"Mission one is easy to solve, but in mission two, the Eagle Kingdom actually sent a team to chase me. Yes, I let the leader run away before. The guy looked like a noble. He should be looking for me after he ran back to the main force.
People are coming to take revenge on me. It seems that I have to be more careful. Although I can carefully erase the footprints so that they can't find them, the rewards of this mission are really exciting. I wanted to put a horse and slash in the system name before, but I can't.
The troops are waiting for me here.
As for the black bear, it is probably difficult to deal with so much reward experience. If I complete the second task first and have the help of a senior Nord archer, I should be able to complete it. As for the last one, can the system be upgraded, but the reputation that a country is famous for is still far away from me.
, take your time."
After thinking for a while, feeling sleepy gradually rising, Ronan took out the blanket from his backpack and covered himself with it, then went to sleep wearing his armor. After all, he didn't know if wild beasts would come here at night, so it would be safer to wear armor.
