Half-elf Notebook

Afterwards, the two people did not end their trip without knowing what was going on - for Ina, who had just tried her hand at it, a single gain, even a good one, would not allow her to give up.

As for Rick, he naturally had no objection. Since he had asked, he had no intention of taking it back. Besides, it was still early, and he also wanted Ina to learn more from this opportunity. Indeed, Ina had become an adventurer recognized by him, but as an adventurer who hunted monsters, she had a lot to learn.

For example: Quit while you are ahead.

Although it sounds a bit boastful, it is obviously safer with me here than for Ina to hunt alone.

Ina, instead of being nervous and cautious at the beginning, gave up the method of searching for prey by enhancing her vision and carefully observing the traces left by the prey on the snow.

Using the Magic Eye instead is much easier - but it consumes much more magic power than before, and since it requires controlling a third-level magic, the physical enhancement is no longer efficient.

But hunting obviously doesn't always go smoothly. In the following three hours, the two men had no other gains except two snow rabbits.

"Is uncle always like this?" Ina closed her magic eye and covered her stinging eyes with her hands. She wasted her magic power recklessly. It was not without consideration. Seven times was enough to drain the magic power of a magician of the same level, but it was only a small part of the consumption on her.

Compared to magic power, the body part that has been cast with spells of the same level multiple times feels a little overwhelmed.

She turned around and found that Rick's indifferent expression had disappeared without her knowing when. He frowned slightly and put his hand on the hilt of the sword:

"It's not uncommon to find nothing in a hunt, but this time... it's a little strange."

"A bit strange?" Ina was a little confused and subconsciously looked around. The snow and trees were no different from when she came here. Because it was the end of winter, the temperature rose to a few degrees below zero. If you look closely, you can even find a lot of green emerging among the white snow.

But in the eyes of Ina, who witnessed this scene for the first time, everything seemed normal.

Even if there was something strange, she couldn't tell...

"Although it is the end of winter, it is actually March now... Even if the temperature is not yet suitable, the migration should begin." Rick tried to use the knowledge that Ina knew to explain the anomalies he had discovered in the past few hours.

"But now, the monsters, wild beasts and even living creatures we encounter are unusually rare."

The restricted areas and borders are by no means the natural divisions of the living areas of monsters and wild beasts. They are based on information collected by adventurers and hunters, and are divided by humans themselves according to the density and strength of the monsters.

In it, Warcraft will also migrate with the wild beasts to ensure sufficient food.

Wild beasts will appear in large numbers in the restricted area, and magical beasts will also appear outside the restricted area.

It is understandable that the magical beasts are hard to come by in small numbers, but the fact that the numbers of wild animals have dropped sharply during the same period is clearly out of the normal range.

Rick pulled the sword out of the scabbard.

After all, he has been an adventurer for nearly ten years. His rich experience and accumulated information and knowledge are enough for him to guess about all the weird things in advance.

This border area — has a new owner.

"Ina! Get your shield and sword ready!" Rick's sudden stern tone startled the girl, and he walked to Ina's side to prevent any accidents.

"That's a big guy coming, it's more than you can handle, don't interfere!"

Ina was a little confused, but she had never gone against Rick's wishes, and from Rick's serious and cautious expression, she also sensed the seriousness of the matter.

After a brief moment of daze, he quickly completed the chanting of the shield spell.

Rick held the sword with both hands to his right shoulder, with the tip of the sword pointing to the sky, facing the direction where he felt the malice, and made the starting posture of the Kingdom Knight's swordsmanship.

This was the moment when he really got serious about this journey.

In the natural world of survival of the fittest, it is not uncommon to see changes in territory owners in various areas of the Warcraft Forest. The survival of the fittest is the law of the wild beasts in the wilderness.

But normal should not be now, not at this time when the migration has not yet ended and the forest is seriously lacking in food.

Rick's grip on the sword couldn't help but tighten, there was only one possibility left.

The one coming is definitely not a "newcomer" who is competing for the territory, but a powerful monster that wants to expand its own territory!

At this moment, a red-orange light lit up a hundred meters away, and a fireball the size of a washbasin was accompanied by an explosion, blowing away the snow on the ground, smashing the tree trunks and plants in front, and rushing straight towards the two people!
