Chapter 4 The way to enter the forest of monsters
"The priest of the God of Love will not see others being troubled by illness." Lina waved her impatiently, signaling not to bother her to continue reading: "After you find a good place, let the bartender notify me tomorrow."
The bearded mayor scratched his head awkwardly. He was so excited that he could no longer sit still here. He was eager to notify the townspeople who needed treatment. In fact, in the cold ice town, many people were troubled by illness. The cold weather made many older people feel a little uncomfortable in the lower limb joints. It was not a big problem in normal times, but when it was cloudy and snowy, it would be unbearable. Just like this blizzard that lasted for many days, fifteen or sixteen elderly people were lying on the bed and unable to walk. In addition, there were several patients in the town who were not in good health, which totaled more than twenty.
A bedridden person, with the ability of the priest in the town, cannot be cured at all. Even if he wants to invite some powerful priests to treat him, he cannot do it. After all, the nearest city is more than 400 kilometers away from here. The priests are not willing to travel back and forth for seven or eight days just to treat more than twenty townsmen. But now he finally met a passing priest who is willing to help, and he looks very powerful and very responsible mayor, it is difficult for him not to be excited. The mayor hurriedly put on his hat and gloves, put on a thick coat, and then trotted away from the tavern after giving Catherine a few words. Before leaving, he looked at the remaining three people strangely.
In the eyes of the mayor, the other three were indeed strange. A girl with a short blue ponytail sat down from the door. She dragged her chin and looked at the ceiling in a daze. She muttered some incomprehensible sentences from time to time. Her expression was like a sleepwalking made it difficult to know what she had been thinking. The other blond girl had to hold her blonde hair in front of her after sitting down. Otherwise, her long hair would be dragged to the ground. The expression of this long-haired girl had not changed since she sat down. She was motionless like a delicate doll, and even her eyes were
There was no change. If she hadn't walked in by herself and occasionally blinked, I'm afraid the mayor would have really treated her as a doll. As for the only male among these people, the mayor could only smile bitterly, in just ten minutes. Six empty wooden cups were already in front of him, and the second stewed venison was about to disappear into his mouth. Even if the locals would feel a little uncomfortable after drinking six large glasses of strong wine, this person had no feeling at all. If it weren't for the black-haired girl in the lead glaring at him, the seventh glass of strong wine would have disappeared long ago.
However, there are always many weirdos among professionals, and there are even more surprising adventurers. The mayor, who is almost fifty years old, also traveled in the north when he was young, and he has seen many professionals. He still has a certain ability to withstand their quirks, so he did not show excessive surprise. He just glanced at him and left in a hurry.
"I have to wait a few more days. This blizzard is really not the time to happen." After the bearded mayor left, the six people moved to the table in a corner. Catherine frowned and said, "In this way, all the days we snatched out before will be wasted. Alas, I really hope this snow will stop as soon as possible."
"You can't leave if you stop." Panis swallowed the venison in his mouth with difficulty. Just as he was about to pick up the wine glass, he put it aside under Catherine's gaze. He picked up another cup of water and took a sip, then beat his chest and continued: "We have been traveling eleven days in the snow. Especially on the last stretch, there is no time to rest for two days and one night. We must rest on the spot for a few days, otherwise even if you can live with you, Lina and Freya will not be able to support it. It is already exhausting to travel in the snow. In addition, if you are struggling forward so hard, if you don't rest, you will probably stay in the forest of monsters forever, and it will be too late to regret it when the time comes."
"Okay, you know the snowfield more than me, you have the final say." Catherine sighed and pressed her forehead and said, "I really underestimated the coldness here. I used to think that the environment of the Knights Academy I studied in was already cold enough. I didn't expect that it would be so cold here, and it felt even colder than the frozen hell we were crying in the cave before."
"Although the temperature in the southern part of the Faral Empire is not low, it is divided into four seasons a year, not like here." Panis said: "As for the frozen hell, the temperature is actually similar, but there is wind on the snow field. Wind and snow are a pair of good friends. They can increase the power several times. Most of the people who have been frozen to death on the snow field are dead in the wind. If you can find a shelter from the wind, as long as the time is not too long, most of them can be rescued."
"It's so scary when you heard it." No one else, Lina regained her nature and said curiously: "But this is the first time I know that I can move on the snow field without moving my feet, but my waist and arms are a little uncomfortable."
"Skiing is like this, there's no way," said Panis. "If we don't use this method to rush, we might have to spend several times more time to get here. I've been here once before, and that's when it happened to be the end of winter here, and one of the roads was passed by skiing."
"Does everyone here go out like this?" Lina asked, "I always think it's strange to be on the road like this."
"Of course, when you go out in winter, you will ski when you go near the distance." Panis nodded and said, "It is faster than walking, you can walk more than fifty kilometers a day and a night, and it is also more labor-saving than running."
"Where is the far-reaching target?" Lina asked, "Average people may not be able to stand it if they slide like this for a few days."
"There are sleds in the distance, just like our carriage." Panis replied: "They rely on domesticated deer and dogs to pull sleds. When you entered the town just now, you should have seen them. Every family has a few deer and a group of dogs, which are used for sleds, especially the group of dogs. They can not only pull sleds, but also assist them in hunting, which is very useful. Unfortunately, for people on the snowfield, those animals are as important as their families and cannot be sold to us, otherwise we will be much more relaxed."
"So we have to go into the Warcraft Forest by skiing all the time?" Freya asked, "Can we ski in the forest?"
"If you are a local and are used to skiing and rushing, you can take the exam to get into a place with dense trees. However, we don't have that kind of technology. If you really ski in, you may hit a tree if you don't walk far away. The speed is very slow, so you can only walk in." Panis shook his head and said, "But in fact, we don't have to really enter the Warcraft Forest. No, to be precise, we don't have to really go deep into the Warcraft Forest."
"Yeah?" Catherine raised her eyebrows and lowered her voice and asked, "You haven't talked about the specific situation in the Warcraft Forest before. I guess something is wrong. Is there a special way to notify the Dragon Clan?"
"I? I don't." Panis shrugged and whispered: "But, although I don't, there are other people who have this method."
"It turns out that the Dragon Domination of the Dragon is really favored by the Dragon Clan." Catherine said in surprise: "This is a secret that I have never heard of before."
"Although the dragon clan is lazy and boring, some people have been sincerely worshipping them for thousands of years and do not seek rewards. Moreover, these people have become more and more like dragon clans for unknown reasons. Even if the dragons are hundreds of stones, they will probably be moved." Panis curled his lips and whispered: "Although it is not worthy of these worshippers, it is always possible to give some convenience, such as contacting urgently and helping a little when encountering an irresistible crisis."
"That's enough." Catherine suddenly looked at Panis in confusion: "You don't seem to be very friendly to the Dragon Clan. When it comes to them, it seems that they are a little resentful. You... Oh no, I mean, has something happened?"
Panis didn't hear any clues that were vaguely revealed in Catherine's words, but shook his head and said, "Actually it's nothing. It's not their problem. I'm a little bit about most of the individuals in their clan. Well, I'm just taking off my anger. In fact, they have no mistakes. The problem is myself, but it's hard for me not to blame them for some things. Do you understand?"
"Obviously not." Catherine shrugged as Panis: "But it doesn't matter if you understand or not. What's important is whether we can persuade the people from the Dragon Lord to contact us? If you contact us, you should have a way to let the Dragon Lord send people to find us."
"Well, there is a great possibility that the dragon clan will come to pick us up." Panis nodded and said, "And I have a way to persuade the human-shaped dragons of the Dragon Dominion leader to help us contact the Dragon clan, so I just said that we don't have to walk in by ourselves."
"In other words, my time calculation method is wrong." Catherine lowered her head and calculated: "Sigern said that it is up to 300 days, so the plan I made was to solve the problem within 150 days. It would be dangerous to have more than 150 days. In this way, if we don't need to burrow and waste dozens of days in the forest of Warcraft, we don't have to be as rushing as we are now."
"It's true," said Penis. "But the sooner this kind of thing is, the better."
"Of course." Catherine replied: "Tomorrow, Lina will help the townspeople treat the disease tomorrow. Freya, Vivian and Eva will accompany her. Let's go to the contact person first?"
"Yeah." Panis nodded and said, "I haven't seen the people of the Dragon Birth clan for a long time. Actually, they are quite interesting. You will know when you see them."
