The world of sword and magic

Chapter 10 The rescue operation begins

Navitt and Schiller discussed for a long time, and although they still couldn't come up with a good and foolproof method in the end, they all agreed that they should not force their way into the black scorpion's lair.

Not to mention that there were only two of them, even if there were dozens of them, it would be a very unwise act to forcefully break into a robber's lair with at least hundreds of people under him.

"Our purpose is just to save the captain," Schiller said, "so, we don't have to confront the black scorpion head-on. We just need to sneak into the dungeon and rescue the captain."

Navite nodded in agreement, "Well, that's right, Schiller, do you know where the Black Scorpion's organization and the dungeon are?"

Schiller was silent for a long time, just when Navitt thought he was about to express some insight, the words that Schiller uttered almost overwhelmed him on the spot.

"do not know."

"Navette, you don't think I'm an encyclopedia that knows everything, do you?" Schiller asked, and Navette actually nodded, "The Adventurer's Guild should inquire about this kind of confidential matter. There's still enough money..." News like this must not be cheap, Schiller thought.

"You don't have to worry about the money!" Navet said, "I have observed, there are a lot of Freddy's deer around here, and there are a lot of herbs, although I can't recognize a few, but I think Schiller is a half-elf , you should know which ones are more valuable and useful, right? Freddy’s deer skin can be sold for a lot of money, and this is not a sanctuary, so I’m hunting, and you can just find herbs!”

Schiller was a little stunned, "Navette, I didn't expect you to know so much about these things about making money." Schiller thought that Navette would only show that kind of shining eyes when he saw a beautiful woman. Werther's eyes are also shining so that people are a little afraid to look at them.

"Ah, it's nothing," Navet scratched his head in embarrassment, "because my dad said that a man needs to be tempered a lot, so I was penniless and only brought my two-handed sword, what? He threw me out of the house when I didn’t bring anything with me.”

"Uh..." Schiller didn't know what to say, "Then what should you do?" I remember that Navitt seemed to tell him that his home was not in the town, but in the wilderness...

"Just take one step at a time! Anyway, there are many wild animals that can be hunted and eaten, and there are also a lot of wild fruits. Although some may be poisonous, anyway, I try not to eat them that I can't identify." Thinking about it, it was really a bitter experience. Days, Navitt couldn't help thinking.

Although Navitt just casually said that his family lives in the wilderness, but that is not accurate enough. In fact, the description of "poor mountains and bad waters" may be more in line with the truth. There are monsters everywhere in the forest, and there are very few ordinary animals. , He is more often chased by ferocious monsters than hunting!Casually walking on the path, you can see poisonous snakes gliding out of the nearby grass, and the wild fruits that can be eaten are pitifully few, and most of them can be recognized at a glance even by a person who doesn't know much about wild plants The highly poisonous fruit, when Navitt managed to get out of the mountain forest where his home is called "Evil Ghost Forest" by the locals, he almost had the urge to cry bitterly.

"Navitte, you've worked hard..." Although Navitt didn't say anything, judging from the ever-changing expressions on Navitt's face, Schiller knew that it would definitely not be a happy experience.

"It's all over anyway, it doesn't matter!" Navit said heartily, "Schiller, I'm going hunting!"

"Be careful on the road!" Schiller said, waving at Navitt who was going away, and suddenly felt a bit like a wife seeing off her husband who was going away... Wait, what was he thinking!Schiller shook his head violently, dismissing the ill-timed delusion.

Now that Navit has gone hunting, let him gather herbs too!Schiller thought so, maybe he was lucky enough to find rare and valuable medicinal herbs. Schiller returned to the carriage and took his herb basket, and began to look for medicinal herbs nearby. As Navitt said, there are a lot of medicinal herbs here. Schiller was surprised to find this, and frankly he has rarely seen herbs grow so densely in the wild, and all of them are of good quality.

Schiller happily collected the medicinal herbs. It seems that there should be no need to worry about money!At this time, there was a flash of light in the grass that caught Schiller's eyes. Schiller pushed aside the haystack to take a closer look at the source of the flash, and found that it was an irregularly shaped crystal with a light green color.

"This, this is... the magic spirit stone!" Schiller shouted in surprise. The magic spirit stone is a kind of magic crystal, and the magic power contained in it can be used to drive some simple magic circles or alchemy formulas, or As a supplementary material for powerful magic and high-level alchemy synthesis, it is the favorite magic material of magicians and alchemists, and it is also the favorite food of monsters. The reason why the herbs grow so densely here is also because of the magical power of magic stones. The effect is due to it!

"Wait, Navet just walked into the woods...you have to find him quickly!" Schiller got up vigilantly and put the herb basket back on the carriage, and then followed in the direction Navet had just left. , you can't have an accident!Schiller bit his lips tightly, with a serious expression on his face. Where there are magic spirit stones, there must be monsters. If it is a low-level monster with Navitt's strength, it should be easy to deal with it. The problem is that if you encounter a high-level monster... Schiller can't imagine that What happened, so he relied on the elf's superior tracking skills to quickly go in the direction Navet left.

On the other hand, at this time, Navet had successfully hunted down two Freddy deer, and was skillfully cutting off the deer skins with a hunting knife by the river. After a while, two intact deer skins were laid out like this on stones beside him. exposure.

"Phew, it should be enough to deal with it first. Next, we have to deal with the venison..." Navet used the same hunting knife to dismember the deer neatly, and divided the internal organs and venison into two piles. After cleaning, he began to dismember the deer. The offal and meat of the deer are smoked first, because they are still some distance away from the town and there are only two people. If the venison is not processed first, the meat they can't finish will definitely rot on the road.

Navet was very busy, chopping wood and lighting a fire, and quickly finished most of the venison and internal organs. When he was about to go back to Schiller, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

It's too quiet. Although the depths of the forest are already quite quiet, there are at least occasional chirping of insects and birds, or low chirping of deer and beasts, but now there is no sound at all except for the sound of running water. It seems that the nearby animals have all disappeared. It's the same, and he seems to feel that some kind of malicious eyes are watching him.

Navit put down the hunting knife, instinctively pulled out his two-handed sword, and turned to face the direction he felt the gaze. He saw a pair of red eyes in the bushes, which belonged not to humans but to monsters.

When the huge monster with beautiful black fur came out from the bushes, Navet knew that he was in serious trouble. He was so nervous that his palms began to sweat, it was a night wolf!The night wolf is a high-level monster that likes to come and go at night. At first glance, it looks like a wolf, but its size is several times the size of a wolf. Judging from its size, this should be an adult night wolf. Although Navit He didn't know why the night wolf, which almost only appeared at night, would appear at noon, but he knew very well that the night wolf in front of him was definitely not someone to mess with, and he was in a very bad mood.

Navit held the sword quietly, he didn't run away but he didn't attack, he was waiting, because sometimes monsters might not take the initiative to attack people, he secretly hoped that this night wolf might just pass by - even though the chance was very It's slim, but it's better than him taking the initiative to die. The night wolf, which belongs to the high-level monster, is not something that a demon swordsman like Navitt can deal with. He is still too young, and his strength and physique have not yet reached the peak of a demon warrior. However, if he is facing a young night wolf, although it is inevitable to be injured, he may be able to get away with it, but facing an adult night wolf, he can say that he has no way out.

One person and one beast confront each other like this, and the scene is about to explode.
