The city wall was twenty meters tall, and the moss on it was green. It was dotted on the wall in twos and threes, giving the city an ancient aura. Towns of various sizes were scattered a few miles away from the city. There were also countless villages with star-like banners. There were also some primitive forests outside. Magical beasts could be seen running about everywhere. They were not afraid of humans, let alone attacking them.

"My dear child, return my subordinates to me. I finally have something to do today. I, Reddens, have two guests in my territory. Very interesting guests.”In the main hall of the city, the master of Rosen City, Redens, sat on the main seat with a dozen people standing below him.

"Father, just let me go. You won't let me go to the battle for Grumah's territory, so you should give me a chance this time.”The first young man from the bottom left stood up. It was Redens 'son, Fabbingham.

Redens looked at his son affectionately and laughed." Why are you joining in the fun of that child's game? Fabingham, you're already a Sword Saint. Don't act cool in front of a group of high-level warriors. Alright, I'll let you play this time. Maybe you'll get some unexpected rewards.”

Hearing this, Fabingham's eyes lit up, and he said happily,""Even Father said that there will be gains, so there must be very interesting guests. Then let me go and take a look. However, Father, can you lend me two subordinates?”

Reddens waved his hand and pointed twice."Let's go with them." The two people who were called immediately nodded and accepted the order.

"ESMAU, why do you think it keeps looking at us?”Flo quietly asked.

"I don't know. I noticed that it seemed to be different from the magical beasts I've seen before. It seemed to be observing us. I didn't sense any devouring or killing intent from it, so it should be different from other magical beasts.”ESMAU secretly circulated its Quintessential Essence, ready to attack like a cat staring at a mouse.

The two humans and the beast stared at each other for a long time. When ESMAU's hand in the water gripped the sword, the beast in front of it finally moved. It blinked its eyes and suddenly let out a soft hiss before it shook its head and sank into the water. The water surface returned to its calm state, leaving only the two of them floating quietly on the surface of the water, alert to any attacks that might come at any time. After a while, the magical beast still did not attack. The river was so calm that it was as if the terrifying magical beast had never appeared before.

"My god, why is there a Diba Emperor Snake of the ninth rank here? And why isn't it attacking us?”Flo was extremely excited. Perhaps ESMAU didn't know how terrifying the Emperor Snake was, but she knew very well how terrifying a Grade 9 Magical Beast was. She had thought that it would be a disaster, but it didn't attack anyone.

A magical beast of the ninth rank? ESMAU shuddered. The level-eight Charm Spider Queen had already made him flee, but wasn't this level-nine much stronger than the level-eight?" Hurry up and leave! It's still underwater!"”

The two of them hurriedly climbed onto the shore, but before they could rest, they were stunned again. Countless magical beasts stood around them quietly and watched. Although their levels were not high, it was really chilling to see so many of them gathered together.

"Isn't there a city up ahead? Why are there so many magical beasts in this forest? There are even magical beasts of the ninth rank!”ESMAU couldn't help but ask. With the sword in his hand, he felt a little more courageous. These magical beasts weren't a problem for him, but it seemed like there were quite a number of magical beasts in this forest. Just now, he saw that the Dark Green Dragon was also a grade-9 magical beast, and there was also the Goshawk. He wondered what other terrifying magical beasts were here. If they really started fighting, the smell of blood would probably attract even more magical beasts.

After a long silence, a sheep-like magic beast slowly walked out. It ignored the two humans and walked straight to the river. It stared at the water for a long time before lowering its head to drink.

Whoosh! The two of them could not help but let out a sigh of relief. Before they could say anything, the surrounding magical beasts moved at the same time. This time, the two of them, who had just relaxed, became nervous again. All the magical beasts walked towards the river. Some of them looked at the two humans as they walked, but they had no intention of attacking at all. They just drank the water.

"It seems like the magical beasts here don't attack people. It's too strange!”ESMAU finally realized that all the demonic beasts seemed to be ignoring them.

"Isn't this good? We won't have to worry about being attacked.”Flo patted her chest and curiously looked at the magical beasts drinking the water. They didn't seem to attack each other. This was a rare sight. It should be known that magical beasts of different races would usually attack and kill each other, but the magical beasts here were actually safe and sound.

"Alright, that's not the point. Let's think about how to get out of here. Damn it, why did we enter another forest after we left the Laper Forest?”ESMAU no longer paid attention to the strange expressions of the demonic beasts and complained,""By the way, Flo, what is this forest called?”

"Uh…I don't know either?"

"What is it? You don't know? Then how are we going to get out?" ESMAU jumped up. Even though the path that Flo had pointed out was always difficult, they were still able to successfully walk out of the forest.

"I think we should go to the city we saw earlier and find out where we are before asking around.”Flo thought for a moment and said.

Walking in this strange forest, the two of them couldn't help but wonder why none of the magical beasts they had seen would attack people. This was too abnormal. Even the Archmage, Flo, couldn't figure it out. Could it be that these magical beasts had been domesticated? But it was impossible to domesticate so many magical beasts, let alone so many different types.

ESMAU already knew a little about the wonders of magic, but he didn't know much about it." Flo, do you think there's any magic that can make so many magical beasts stop attacking people?"”

Flo thought about it and shook her head.""As far as I know, the Summoning Element can summon magical beasts, but even a Summoner can't possibly have so many summoned magical beasts. Moreover, there are very few Psychic Magicians, so there are even fewer Summoners. It's impossible for so many Summoners to gather together.”

"Maybe we should ask what this place is. Maybe someone will answer us.”ESMAU saw a village ahead, and from afar, they could see some farmers working in the fields.

It was really hard to believe that there were so many magical beasts here, but there was actually a village that could live here safely without being attacked by the magical beasts. Could it be that these magical beasts were raised by these farmers?

Before ESMAU could ask, someone had already noticed them. Five people were walking towards ESMAU.
