After going to bed very early one night, Wang Chu counted the time.
It had been almost a month since he left the imperial capital, and he was almost used to life in the wild.
The cool weather in the morning is the best time to rush on the road, because the team that is rushing to the wilderness border barely stops to pack up and prepare to set off, and they still eat on the road in the morning.
Just a roasted sweet potato, or the kind that just grew, and the taste is a bit astringent.
Wang Chu beat his chest and tried to swallow the last bite.
"Would you like some water, Cam?"
Rias suddenly said to herself on her shoulder.
Bring it, bring it all.
Wang Chu took the water bag and poured it into his mouth.
Rias's water bag would not be too full, otherwise it would be easy to pour it directly into her clothes when taking a big gulp of water.
Several people around looked at the squirrel on Rias's shoulder, especially the nearest paladin Akela, who could see it more clearly.
He could actually lift the water bag to drink water.
The water outlet was suitable for humans.
Even if a little water comes out, it's almost like washing your face to Squirrel, but when you see a stream of water pouring out, it looks like you're taking a bath.
Wang Chu slapped his chest hard and let out a long sigh of relief.
Finally comfortable If there wasn't much to eat in the place, and other things were too slow to prepare, I wouldn't have to eat this food.
I don't want to see this kind of food again after I go back, but I'm stuck.
"Slow down, Cam, the water is almost ready for you to bathe."
Rias took the water bag from her hand and complained.
Bathing does not exist.
Wang Chu saw that the palms of his hands and even the entire furry arms were soaked, and he quickly shook his body to get rid of the slightly more water.
The weather will get hotter by noon, so if you get some water on you, you'll be fine.
He had been walking at the front of the entire team.
He looked at Archbishop Benedictus on the other side.
The hair on his gray eyebrows was very dense, which made his eyes look very small.
From this angle, he would have looked at Archbishop Benedictus if he hadn't been walking around.
I thought he was squinting his eyes.
He seemed to be thoughtful and didn't talk to the people around him.
This guy has been driving the team to speed up and must reach the wilderness border within today.
He seemed to care about the Imperial General.
Wouldn't it be better if you, this old bastard, came a little earlier so that we could go together?
As a result, everyone is now accompanying him on the road.
The archbishop seemed to be in no mood to talk, and the generals beside him did not continue yesterday's conversation about the north and south, and kept walking silently towards the south.
It was not until the sun gradually rose that the speed of the team slowly slowed down.
When Wang Chu stayed on Rias's shoulder, he didn't feel tired except for the hot weather and dry mouth.
The moisture in the hair on his body had long been dried by the sun, and he had a hot body temperature all over his body.
It felt like he was holding someone in his arms.
A layer of hot water bottle is like running in the desert.
The fur on this body makes the body feel uncomfortably hot.
Wang Chu tried his best to keep breathing evenly.
This place was a little worse than the desert, but the temperature in the desert was only a few degrees at night, and it would get cold after noon.
Looking at the mountain peaks in the distance, just continue to hold on for a while, it's almost done anyway.
The people around me were probably tired and started to slow down.
"Let everyone walk slowly.
If the convoy is tired, just change people and continue to carry it.

It doesn't matter if there are more people."
The archbishop suddenly said.
It seems that he is determined to walk to the southern fortress today.
Sometimes it is just a rush.
If he stops to rest, he may not have the energy to continue walking to the destination.
The general quickly agreed to make arrangements.
It was still very silent along the way, and the team walked until it was almost evening.
Wang Chu had a clearer view because he stood on his shoulders.
He raised his head and found that towering sentry towers began to appear on the distant peaks. .
That's right there.
Wang Chu used his palm to stir Rias's hair.
Look over there.
"What's wrong?"
Rias suddenly looked at the squirrel on her shoulder, and he pointed to a place in the distance.
They were probably very tired after walking for a day.
Most people were walking with their heads buried, and no one paid attention to places in the distance.
On the top of the mountain, although there is only a small view, there is already the prototype of a sentry tower.
At this time, everyone also noticed the direction in the distance.
"Yes, we are almost there.
I didn't expect that the time would be shorter than expected.
You can see it after turning over this road.
I really miss it.
I remember the last time I came here was when I was young." from Sunrise City. said the general.
There is such a rule in Zhuri City.
Almost most of the soldiers have been to the border for a period of time.
After spending a few years there, they will be replaced by another group.
Except for a few leading troops who have been there all year round, They are replaced every few years.
"It's over there, that's good.
We finally arrived."
Benedictus looked like he was relieved.
"Who is the commander in charge of the border fortress?"
he suddenly asked.
"General Jason, his family has been the guardian of the border for generations, and all the soldiers trained by him are good at fighting."
The general of Sun Chaser City did not forget to brag in front of everyone.
But it doesn't seem to have received much attention.
The people here are all from the imperial capital, and there are many generals.
Jason.
I had never heard such a name before when I was in the military.
His military rank was probably not high, at least not as high as Rias's.
However, someone who can protect the border for generations is indeed remarkable.
"What an outstanding general of the empire."
Finally, the archbishop gave a comforting compliment.
The troops formed and approached the several sentry towers that could be seen.
Wang Chu discovered that not only the ones in front of him, but also many surrounding places had sentry towers.
The fortress was not far below the sentry tower, especially one The densely populated areas are also specially built with city walls, which stretch between the mountains and look like the Great Wall.

It can be considered a small city under siege.
"That's it, the largest fortress on the border, Sunset Fort."
Everyone looked over.
It was impossible not to see the team that brought so many people.
From a distance, they saw someone waving to this side from the top of the watchtower.
However, they held up a flag, which was the flag of Zhuri City.
At the same time, a flag will be displayed here to give the opponent a reply.
"It's reinforcements.
Zhuri City has sent reinforcements."
Although they were far apart, they could actually hear what the people there said, as if there were echoes.
At this time, you can see that the soldiers on the entire guard tower are busy, and the door of the fortress on the other side is opened, and soldiers begin to come out from inside.
A bleak wind blew from a distance, and after walking a short distance further, you could see the situation in the wilderness.
Is this the wilderness?
Wang Chu stood up straight on his shoulders.
The direction I am facing is above the mountains, which is considered a high place, while far below is a desolate land, with gravel and dirt roads, weeds everywhere, and small pools of water.
Some things can be seen lying in the grass and piles of rocks, and huge skeletons can be seen everywhere.
Those are animal bones, there are so many of them Here we are, the southern wilderness
