Sword and Magic and Taxi

　　 The next morning, there were only four apprentices left by the Smokey River, and Mr. Dall had left quietly. Zhao took a look around and found no evidence that he was still around. Take a breath and go out, and then I really have to rely on myself.

　　 "Who knows how far is it from Lang'er Town here?" Ziyue's question came up unanswered. Even if Zhao Mai has a copy of the map of the area, there is no landmark reference object, no positioning system, and still cannot determine his location.

　　 "The direction of the river will not change, just follow." Lucius cast a water-making spell to extinguish the campfire, and then equipped himself. Zhao Mai has the most things and needs to be fixed one by one. Afraid came to help, so the progress was much faster.

"I have an idea." Zhao Mai said as he went dry: "The currents of the Smokey River are not rapid, and the area that flows through is the topography of the Pingchuan River. Why don't we make a raft and float down? This is labor-saving and fast. "

　　 "Isn't that cheating?" Lucius shook his head: "Mr. Dal let us go south, but not to the south. What if the mission fails in order to save energy for a while, can you take the responsibility?"

　　 "It's difficult for me to make a raft by myself. If no one helps, then forget it." Zhao Mai hummed, and without reluctance, threw the backpack on his back and hung the buckle on his chest. If you encounter a dangerous situation, you only need to yank with one hand, the buckle will be released, and he will be free from the load.

　　 Since there is no babysitter, it can only rely on the power of the bodyguard, and Zhao Mai's bodyguard is the giant musket in his hand. Even if it is not loaded-in order to avoid gunpowder loss and misfire-a spear equipped with two sharp blades is still a hideous weapon.

　　 "Your weapon looks like a dwarf. Where did you get it?" Lucius stared at the Megalodon musket. Zhao Mai was behind all the way, and there was no need to carry weapons all day under Dal's protection. This was the first time he found that his companion had such a good thing in his hands.

　　 "I met a dwarf friend who made it for me." Zhao Mai briefly dealt with it and changed the subject. "Let's go, it seems I can only rely on the legs."

　　 So the four people started to head south along the banks of the Smokey River, accompanied by the strange smell of the Smokey River along the way. Sometimes pungent, sometimes disgusting, but occasionally suddenly becomes fragrant. These are the legacy of ancient wizards, even after countless years, the wilds still failed to completely heal the scars left by the magic war.

　　Walking on such a river is not torture, but it is also a kind of experience. It can be seen from the frowning brows of a few people from time to time. After the implementation of the prayer of purifying food, the river did not taste so terrible. As long as the psychological barrier is passed, the body will not be so uncomfortable. Four apprentice druids marched along the river bank, Zhao Mai walked in the third. He originally wanted to guard at the end of the team, but Ziyue gave a very convincing reason.

　　 "My owl stands on my shoulders and can always look back. It's not so convenient for you!"

　　 It was also because Ziyue was at the back of the team, Lucius had to reduce the speed of the team's advancement, unable to get rid of Zhao Mai. He was reticent along the way, carrying a weapon and walking at the forefront of the team. A pair of blue eyes not only pay attention to the movement in the forest on their left, but also often look back and pay attention to the team's situation.

　　Afrah also has a quiet temper, walking in the second one with a wooden stick. She seldom looked back, it was the gray-blue gibbon reporting the situation. So is there a strange cry of "Woo~quack" in the team, and no one can understand the monkey's words, except maybe Afra.

　　 Finally, there is no need to advance in the intertwined forest, and the food reserve can be regarded as liberated. It ran back and forth, seeming to have endless energy. Zhao Mai picked up a small branch from the ground and threw it out suddenly, and the reserve grain would rush up quickly, then came back with a stick in his mouth. This is also a kind of animal companion training, which can increase the tacit understanding between the two.

　　 This time, Zhao Mai threw a little far away, halfway through the reserve grain, and suddenly stopped, making a "roar" sound at the forest. It can be seen from the posture of raising its tail and lowering its shoulders that the other party is definitely not a good kind.

　　 "The fume of the river water has a great smell, and almost no animals come here to drink. Couldn't your dog admit it wrong?" Although he said so, Lucius still stopped. He looked down at his cheetah and found nothing abnormal. "Mike, call your dog back..."

Before 　　's words fell, the cheetah's hair was exploded, its tail curled up behind it, pressed behind its ears, opened its mouth, revealing its fangs. With a whirr of the reserve grain, he ran past Cheetah and returned to Zhao Mai. At this time, the cheetah had already exposed its claws and leaned down in an attacking posture.

　　 "What is it?" Zhao Mai squinted to see, while squatting down and going up two bullets. Although he didn't see anything, he believed in the feeling of grain reserves. Everyone gathered towards the middle of the team, and they all prepared their weapons.

　　 Lucius seemed to have discovered something, and when he stood up straight, he shot an arrow. His cheetah slammed, but instead of rushing up, he threw Lucius down. At this moment, a javelin flew over and was flying past the cheetah's back.

　　 Zhao Mai glanced at the shape of the javelin: about one meter long, the spear head has no metal parts, just a sharpened wooden stick; the spear body is naturally curved, indicating that the opponent's woodworking skills are also poor. Estimate the flying rules and speed of the javelin from just a moment~www.NovelMTL.com~ Zhao Mai said: "Be careful, the opposite should be a smart humanoid, and the size will not exceed the medium size. Since we dare to attack the four of us, then the other party The number will not be small! Don't be scattered, avoid being destroyed by each. We are still more than 20 meters away from the woods, this distance is enough to react to javelins and the like! When they come up, don't enter the woods!"

　　 At the same time he finished speaking, he had already equipped the shield. Ziyue chuckled and hid beside Zhao Mai, with the help of a shield. Aphra thought for a while, lowered her body and ran over, standing side by side with Ziyue.

　　 "Don't all look at me, you stare at the river by yourself." Zhao Mai will not underestimate any kind of intelligent creature enemies, and immediately ordered: "Ziyue, you have an owl, this job is left to you!"

　　 Lucius moved the cheetah away from him, bit his lip and turned over and got up. It should be him who gave those orders, not Zhao Mai! Although the instant reaction was slower, but those words could be said by himself, there was no reason for the black-haired boy to steal the limelight. He looked at the other three people and knew that he was absolutely impossible to hide behind Zhao Mai's shield. So he picked up the bow and arrow again and stared carefully at the woods.

　　 Some small black figures kept running under the cover of bushes, wielding weapons similar to spears and machetes. Lucius shot two more arrows, all hitting the branches of the trees. The trembling arrow drew ridicule from the other side, a sound similar to "chirp".

　　 "How many arrows do you have left?" Zhao Mai asked.

　　 "I haven't counted it!"
