Sunlight shines through the top of the marching tent into the tent, creating streaks of light on the canvas.There was a lot of water vapor in the forest, and although this imperial aristocratic marching tent was designed with good ventilation vents, it was stuffy and hot in the rainforest.The work of setting up a tent in the field was tedious and there were safety considerations to consider, so Winley, Helena, Becky, and I were huddled together in a marching tent to rest, and I was woken up by the sound of the girls Amy and Justus talking, but Helena, Becky, and Winley were still asleep beside me.It was very hot in the tent, the girls were wearing thin suspender nightdresses, Helena's white ivory arms were on my chest, her beautiful face was smiling innocently in her sleep, a layer of fine sweat was secreting from her forehead, the white silk nightdress was up to the waist, and the white legs on the moisture-proof blanket were too dazzling and slender.I gently tossed her arms aside, fearing that I would wake them up, so I put the fury of the Earth Fury on my body, and the rest of the leather armor in my arms, tiptoed over to the tent, lifted the tent's curtains, and got out.Caterina followed me right behind and emerged from the tent.It happened to be noon, the sun shone directly through the gap in the top of the tree, the body was wrapped in wet heat, the sweat seemed to be stuffed in the body, and the heat wave swept in, making people feel that at this time, they can only take a glass of cold juice and pour it into their stomachs, which will be extremely comfortable.The hot weather quickly evaporates the water vapor in the jungle, but the humidity in the forest is too great, and the moss of many tree trunks is covered with wet small water droplets, and some fungi even grow in the cracks of the rough bark, and the thick smell of wet rot fills the forest.A small snake covered in golden rings silently slashed across the flower tree overhead, and I could clearly feel the water mana fluctuations on its skin.I didn't expect that we would encounter this kind of small-sized reptilian demonic beast just after we walked out of Strange Rock City, although the danger factor of this poisonous snake is very small, but after all, this place is still on the outskirts of Strange Rock City, in fact, we haven't gone too far.Justus crouched under the tree, in a stalemate with the girl named Amy.Although the girl did not have any physical advantage, she was so stubborn that she refused to back down at all, and the legs and cuffs of the linen clothes she wore were tightly tied with slender vines, and there was a simple wood knife and a small bamboo tube around her waist.However, her figure is thin, and her breasts are even more mediocre, if it were not for her delicate face and long hair, she would probably be mistaken for a brave teenager."
Please take me, I am familiar with this forest, my brother has taken me to the wild swamps of the lizard tribe, and I know how to avoid those lurking dangers."
The teenage girl Amy said this to Justes.But Justes had a cold face, as if he didn't want to give the girl Amy any good looks, and bluffed at the girl, "Get out of here quickly." ”At this time, just in time for me to get out of the tent, the girl Amy hurriedly ran in front of me, and Justes caught up from behind, reached out and grabbed her weak wrist, and dragged her out of the camp. bed, and resolutely abandoned her to the negative man.With that in the look, I waved my hand at Justus and motioned for Justus to stop.Justes didn't say anything more, but left the girl and turned and walked into the forest.He was also responsible for guarding the perimeter of the camp."
You can't find your way back to Strange Rock City?"
I leaned over and asked her with a serious expression."
It's not."
The girl replied with some humility."
Then why did you come back?"
I asked by pinching her pointed chin, lifting her head up, and staring into her eyes."
You don't need a guide, and I can help you."
The girl's breath was a little rapid, and she said to me quickly.After the charcoal ash on her face was washed, she showed a delicate little face, and although there were freckles scattered on her cheekbones, it did not make her more ugly.I sat on a tree root across from her, and Caterina came over with a scone and a broth, and I took a bite of it, and said as I ate, "I think you must be mistaken, we do lack an experienced guide, but we are not short of novice guides, the kind of guides are all over the streets of Strange Rock City, go back, I will bring your brother back safely if he is still alive." ”The girl Amy hesitated for a moment, but finally mustered up the courage to say, "Master Magician, but you have no experience in the jungle, I know you need my help, you need to find a drinkable water source in this poisonous swamp-infested rainforest" She puffed up her chest, making herself more confident.I turned my head and smiled at Katarina beside me, and stretched out my hand, and the ball of water in my palm grew at a speed visible to the naked eye, and when the ball became the size of a fist, the ball of water instantly turned into a line of water, and kept flipping above my palm, and after a few seconds, the line of water shot out and smashed on the trunk of a tree on the side, and the moment the arrow touched the trunk, the water splashed everywhere.I said, "You probably don't know, but I'm a water magician. ”The girl Amy's eyes were attracted by the water arrow, and she did not come back to her senses until the water arrow dissipated.Her eyes widened, and there was a hint of envy in her eyes.The girl Amy said stubbornly: "I also learned from my brother how to identify poisonous weeds and avoid poisonous insects, I know where there is dragon tooth grass" I waved my hand, unceremoniously interrupted Amy's words, and said to Amy with a smile: "Dragon tooth grass?"
I know that low-level magic grass, it has a spicy smell of its own, and it can repel most poisonous insects, but do you think that if we enter the territory of the lizard clan and are covered in dragon tooth grass juice, we are afraid that the lizard warriors will not find us?
”For this magical herb that grows in the tropical rainforest, the description in the magic books of the Grimm Empire is completely different from that on the ancient scrolls of the orcs, and there are two definitions: the Grimm Empire's magic herb books praise this primary magic herb, saying that it is a universal antidote herb, even if the coarseest squeezed juice of the dragon's tooth grass, drinking it directly can relieve most of the heat poisoning, and the antidote prepared with it is even more versatile.However, there is a special article on the ancient scroll of the orcs that explains this rudimentary magical herb, and the great shamans of the ancient orc ancestors considered the dragon's tooth herb to be useless.It is the most useless herb of all magical herbs, because this magic herb can only cure those primary heat poisons, and for orcs, they themselves have a strong constitution, and those many heat poisons have no effect on orcs at all.My view of dragon tooth grass has always stayed in the knowledge that old Kuru instilled in me, although I later studied related knowledge in the War Magic Academy, but my subjective consciousness has been formed, so it is difficult to look at this magical herb objectively.The young girl Amy retorted with some stubbornness, "At least it's a very effective antidote, and many guides in Strange Rock City carry it with them, and no one is going to the rainforest swamp now." ”I stood up, beckoned to her, and led her to the pergola on the side of the camp, where Erica hadn't taken a nap.She was just a bystander last night, she didn't feel sleepy now, she was still in good spirits, she felt that before entering the rainforest, she should prepare some commonly used antidotes, so she set up a simple pergola in the camp, and took out all the bottles and jars she carried, and now she has been equipped with four colors of dark green and green magic potions, I don't know why, looking at the kind of bubbling green liquid in the beaker, my stomach will keep contracting, some overreactions.I stood beside the pergola and said to the maiden Amy, "See, this Erica magician is a full-time magic apothecary, and is good at making all kinds of antidotes, I don't think we will worry about poisonous insects in the swamp."
So how do you think you can help us?
If not, go back to Strange Rock City. ”I glanced in the direction of Qiyan City and said to her, "If you leave now, you should be able to get back to the city before dark." ”The girl Amy's face turned red, she raised her head with some excitement, and said loudly to me, "Ah!
Then I also know that Nathaniel has several hiding places in the rainforest, and each guide will find a few hiding places in this rainforest, and if there is an accident and cannot go home, he will hide in those hiding places and wait for the danger to pass, yes, Nathaniel took me to his hiding place. ”Hearing her say this, I pursed my lips and swallowed the words that I was about to chase her away.Although we caught the Angus Yutath brothers, I was not entirely sure that I would find Mentor Moraya and Heidi, and she said that she knew where Nathaniel was hiding, and this sentence clearly touched me, so I said, "Okay!
You can stay, but you'd better not be tricky, and I won't hesitate to leave you if we find out that you are any danger to us, or a burden to us. ”Senior Sister Erica heard me and Amy talking in the pergola, stopped what she was doing, raised her head and smiled faintly at Amy, and said while brushing the broken hair in her ear: "Don't scare her anymore, come over quickly, your name is Amy, right!"
Amy, have you dealt with magic herbs?
Can you help me grind these licorice into powder?
”Of course, the clever Amy knew that Senior Sister Erica would help her again, and she ran over like a nimble deer, standing next to the grinder skillfully, and said to Senior Sister Erica: "I can, Lord Magician, I used to work as a handyman in the Mitsuki Potion Shop for a while, but the potions shop closed down half a year ago, and after the magic herbs produced here were purchased by the big lords at a high price, almost all the potions shops in the city were unable to operate because of this, and many herbal apprentices were unemployed like me." ”As she spoke, she skillfully put a hay plant into the grinder, and shook the handle very easily, and the dry powder overflowed little by little, and was carefully collected by Amy in a glass bottle.Erica actually just wanted us to stop arguing, since I promised to keep Amy, someone always had to take her with her.It's just that Senior Sister Erica probably didn't expect Amy to be a good helper for her, she looked at Amy, who soon entered the role, with a surprised face, and didn't know what to say for a while.Avoiding the vicious midday sun, we packed up our camp and set out only after the heat had dissipated a little.Before I set out, I brought in three Hierro natives from the Giant Spider Hatchery in the Valley of the Willows, who had a lot of experience surviving in the jungle, and I needed someone to clear the way in front of the team, which was full of women except me, Justus, and Ruka.Ruka the Minotaur is responsible for the break at the back of the line, while Justes is responsible for keeping the team safe.Whether it's Ying Li, Helena and Becky, or Anne and Sue sisters, Erica Senpai is not suitable for being at the front of the group, wielding a hatchet and acting as a trail leader, and this is when the advantages of the Hierro natives come to the fore, they have a wealth of experience in the jungle.As for me, Justus and Ruka the Minotaur also had no painful experience in this regard at all, when we were in the Black Forest, we had the care of the ancient trees of war, and when we marched in the forest, we had not experienced this kind of dense crowding of various plants at all, and countless wild grasses and vines completely blocked our way, and the three Hierro natives struggled to carve out a passage in the rainforest.Our team circled around the outskirts of Qiyan City for most of the time, and we didn't see a single knight of the guard battalion chasing out of the city.Finally, just before dusk, Katerina found the orc mark left by Karantso on a large banyan tree in the woodland, and we followed the mark left by Karantso, and from the mark left by Karantso, it can be seen that the orc warrior probably found some clues.Amy told me that the team was currently heading towards the rainforest swamp, and that they would be on the road until about seven or eight days later, they would be in the territory of the lizard tribe.We don't always have to trek through the rainforest, and we can occasionally take short flights on the Magic Handle, which adds up to three mages on our team.Although horses can't travel through this rainforest, but the more flexible and convenient magic handles can, although this consumes some mana, but it can save the physical strength of the ladies, Ying Li, Su and Erica are similar to ordinary people, so trekking in the rainforest will be very hard, and taking a short flight with a magic handle can restore their strength to a large extent.In fact, Karantso walked very fast in the rainforest with her orc warriors, and our squad kept chasing the marks left by Karantso.Our party walked early and in the dark for three days, but I had a feeling that we were getting farther and farther away from Karantso's group, and that these three short days of life in the jungle had robbed us of all good feelings about the jungle
