Sword and Magic and Taxi

　　 Zhao Mai's nervous sweat slipped from the corner of his forehead, and his constantly accelerating heartbeat conflicted with trying to relax his breath, which caused him a feeling of dizziness. Even when facing a kobold, he was not as nervous as he is now. Perhaps in various video games, he has fought countless times with kobolds, goblins, and orcs, and lost his sense of strangeness. But the sudden appearance of the body by the river is by no means a common sight.

　　 I have to check it out anyway, I must know what happened before I can decide what to do next. Zhao Mai forced herself to calm down, let go of distractions, and observe the surrounding environment again and again. After that, he carefully came out of the hiding place.

　　 Under the willow tree, it is indeed the corpse of a cheetah. Its body was twisted into a twist from the middle, and its two front legs and two hind legs formed an angle of 180 degrees. It seems that after crossing the river, Lucius and the others encountered an attack. Could that arm belong to Lucius?

　　 "Why?!" Zhao Mai pushed aside the withered willow branches and saw the face of the corpse. Eagle-winged Druid Dale had his eyes wide open, a large hole had been broken in his heart, and the blood had already drained. Judging from his appearance, he must have experienced arduous struggles before he died, and his limbs and torso were covered with small wounds, as if he had been drawn by a wire rope.

　　 The druid died within a day, so he still didn't stinks. Only then could Zhao Mai resist the discomfort and drag his corpse out of the willow tree. His fatal wound was a penetrating injury to the heart. Judging from the skin and flesh rolled, it should have penetrated from the back and passed through the chest. His weapons, equipment, etc. were not on his body, and the pockets under his robe were clean. This made Zhao Mai have to wonder whether Dal was captured first and then executed?

　　 There are no traces of other people around, and Zhao Mai can't track his footprints yet, so he can't do anything. The most important thing now is to rush back to the community as soon as possible and tell the druids this news. However, he couldn't let his body be exposed in broad daylight!

　　Although the time to get along is not long, Dalle feels good to Zhao Mai. He was able to calm down and listen to what the young man said, and readily agreed to give him the anti-disease medicine as a reward. Zhao Mai estimated that the value of a potion for a third-level spell was about 750 gold coins, and a training mission for a junior apprentice would never have such benefits.

Moreover, when traveling all the way, Dalle from the Eagle Wings community was able to treat him equally, and sometimes he could even take care of Zhao Mai, who was relatively slow. This was a kind of heartwarming feeling for Zhao Mai, who broke into this world alone. .

"Mr. Dall, I want to bury you underground, but I'm afraid I can't. I don't have the tools to dig, and the river is full of woods and the underground is intertwined. I can't dig a pit big enough." Zhao Mai looked at Dal’s wide-open eyes and said, “There are no fish in the Smokey River, and the effect of water burial will not be good. If your soaked corpse floats to Lang’er Town, you may be treated there. So I just Can choose to ignite you and use the form of cremation."

　　 After finishing speaking, Zhao Mai stretched out his hand, and closed Dal's eyelids according to the method he saw in the film and television program. It is said that the human body is difficult to ignite, and the more branches you need, the better. Zhao Mai is not like some druids, not even willing to destroy branches. After more than two hours, Zhao Mai built a cremation pile by the river.

　　 "Normal cremation piles need to be filled with oil. Keep everything simple." Zhao Mai used the firearm's firing device to ignite the bark fibers and slowly started the fire. He took care of the fire patiently until he was sure that all parts were burning.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my abilities are limited." Zhao Mai watched Dal's body being swallowed by flames, and said to him the final farewell: "Although you have not been able to enter the soil, the power of nature will eventually have your body. Li will accept your soul. I don’t know if it’s right to say that, I hope you don’t mind.”

　　 After finishing all this, he immediately left with the grain reserves and headed in the direction of the druid community in his memory.

　　 In the more westward direction, in the depths of the dense forest about 30 kilometers away from them, a strange team is slowly advancing. In the lead are two giant earth monsters, looking like unicorns magnified a hundred times. Huge pliers-like claws with serrated edges can cut through trees blocking roads. Then they will use long, hard horns to push the trunk to one side and clear a path.

　　Following them were four trolls. They carried a sedan chair together, carefully maintaining their balance, and followed behind the trolls. The sedan chair is surrounded by thick curtains in the shape of a small house, and it is difficult to see who is sitting in it or what it is.

　　 From time to time, some gray mist drifted out from the gaps in the curtains and slowly settled towards the ground. Some weak life, such as moss and mushrooms, quickly lost their vitality after being touched by the gray mist, changed from growth to senescence, and soon died.

　　 Following the sedan chair are two strong bear goblins, their bare bodies with solid muscles, and a huge head on their hairy shoulders. The mouth with a pair of lower fangs was chewing raw meat, and the **** seemed to have just been taken from some animal. Their eyes looked right and left, constantly investigating their surroundings, and from time to time they looked at a large cage carried by the troll behind them.

　　 Lucius, Afra and Ziyue were confined inside, with their hands and feet tied up, but their mouths were not stuffed with stinky cloth strips. As long as they move around, they will be beaten with a long stick by the bear goblin following behind, whispering that it's okay to speak, and if they dare to shout, it is a cruel stick.

　　 A big bag on Ziyue's head, that's how it came. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

　　 "You said, what are they going to do, why are they continuing to go deep into the farmer's forest?" Ziyue rubbed the swelling bag with her hand, yelled softly, and said to Avra ​​and Lucius.

　　 Lucius only had a pair of shorts, and his sturdy body was full of stains and looked embarrassed. There is also a very obvious strangulation mark on his neck, which is still a blue-purple bruise. Every now and then, Lucius would touch this scar with his hand, as if he could still feel the horror of the rope tying his neck tightly and then dragging it into the water.

　　 But these wounds were not as painful as his heart, and the cheetah died in front of him, which dealt a serious blow to him. Afrah looked at the despair that appeared in his eyes from time to time, which was a kind of despair caused by shock and sadness. She began to worry about Lucius' state, for fear that he would lose his composure anytime. It's okay for the time being. Lucius is a bit tired but not decadent. He still maintains his usual rationality: "In the Farmer's Forest, besides the Infinite Walker community, what else deserves these people's attention?"

"Even if he is very powerful and killed Mr. Daller, the druid master in the community is not easy to provoke. He must be defeated." Ziyue curled his lips and said to the sedan chair, "Go to hell." You" gesture.

　　 "This is exactly why we are still alive." Afraud said suddenly.

　　 "We don't have much exchange value!" Ziyue didn't understand: "Furthermore, Infinite Walker is not rich. It's far less than Eagle Wings, isn't it? What do they want?"

　　 Lucius sighed deeply, lowered his head and said, "I'm afraid the three of us are just to drag time."
