Inside the Holy Word Barrier
On the open space under the big tree, three tents were arranged in a triangular formation. In the middle of the tents was a bonfire. On top of the bonfire was a barbecue rack made of wood. The surroundings had turned grey and black. The sky was covered with dense shining stars. However, the sky above us had been completely blocked by the huge tree crown. Under the shade of the tree, our surroundings became even darker. However, the bright bonfire reflected a layer of bright red on everyone's faces. And every time this happened, I would always feel an inexplicable sense of emotion and absent-mindedness. The classic scene of roasting meat in a tent and bonfire in the wild was almost an indispensable scene in any fantasy novel. In my previous life, I had fantasized about this scene countless times. Now, I was actually in the real world, and I felt more comfortable than I had imagined. Of course, if I added a beauty in my arms, it would be even more perfect. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but glance at Zi Yue. However, she still had a troubled expression on her face. For a moment, the intoxication I had just felt disappeared. Yes, there was indeed a beauty sitting beside her now. However, she was in a daze and had a lot on her mind. A beauty was really a wet blanket. Zi Yun, who was beside Zi Yue, had the same expression. Long Xin, who could barely be called a beauty, was excitedly rolling the big wooden stick on the support. As Long Xin rolled, the wild boar on the support, which had long been burned to a golden color, would turn its belly up and down. From time to time, it would drip shiny oil into the fire, making a squeaking sound, and then gradually forming a dazzling star. Finally, Long Xin felt that the fire was about right, so she immediately moved the wild boar down the fire and placed it on the big round plate on the small table. Long Zhan had long since taken out his knife, looking like he wanted to swallow the entire wild boar right now.
Soon, the entire small wild boar was dismembered into six pieces by us. I got a big piece of meat with the left foreleg, and Long Zhan got what he wanted. The pig head and the other piece of meat with the foreleg were given to Zi Yue and Zi Yun. As for the remaining two, they naturally went to Long Xin and Long Qi.
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, Long Qi and Long Zhan had already entered the tent, while Long Xin continued to sit cross-legged beside the fire, seemingly meditating. Unlike the warriors, mages and priests could also meditate and cultivate in their free time. Among the three, Long Xin's strength was undoubtedly the weakest, not to mention that there was an even more ignorant me, which made Long Xin feel a huge pressure. Because of my appearance, Long Xin didn't even have the last reason to try to convince herself. In the past, it could still be said that Long Zhan and Long Qi were older than her, so it was naturally understandable that they were stronger than her. However, now that I appeared, although I was older than her, my strength was much stronger than hers. Moreover, my profession belonged to the warrior class. I was the type of person who was eliminated because my magic aptitude was not up to standard. The self-respecting and proud Long Xin definitely could not accept this fact. Of course, these were all things that Long Qi vaguely told me. Her motive was to not let me go overboard and provoke Long Xin, and I gladly accepted it.
Long Xin was meditating with a peaceful expression on her face, just like a water lily. I think this should be the true side of Long Xin. Actually, I could feel that this girl usually looked a little carefree and domineering. She was always self-centered, but in the end, she was just a little girl. The reason why she was like this should have a lot to do with her background. After all, if a noble did not have a little strength and courage, it would be very difficult for her to control her subordinates. Obviously, this thought had been instilled into her mind by her father. Usually, Long Xin would subconsciously display the dignity and dominance unique to nobles. Although her current behavior seemed a little childish and immature, it was fortunate that she managed to trick me into joining the Wandering Dragon Gang with just a few words in the Skeleton Cave. Now that I think about it, she only met me at that time. If she met someone else, who would care about her? Instead, they would think that this was just a child's game. However, I know very well that as time passes, I will be able to survive. With the increase of her experience and the maturity of her thoughts, Long Xin would definitely become an outstanding female aristocrat in the future, because right now, she was subconsciously working hard towards that goal.
In the tent behind Long Xin, she could hear a series of faint sounds that made it difficult for her to sleep. It seemed that the noble lady who had a heavy heart was also not sleeping. I guessed that Zi Yun was in the same situation as his sister in the tent behind me. After all, his mother was seriously ill in bed and her life was in danger at any time. However, they were unable to return to his mother's side immediately because of the distance. No matter who it was, it would definitely not be good.
As I thought about it, I couldn't help but think of my mother. I didn't know how my mother was doing now, and Chenfeng. Gradually, a wave of sleepiness gradually eroded my mind. I could only yawned and enter the tent. Outside the tent, Long Xin was still quietly sitting cross-legged like a wooden statue. For a mage, meditation and sleep were almost the same, so I didn't have to worry about Long Xin's mental state being affected by a lack of sleep. Moreover, Long Xin had a more convincing reason to stay outside, and that was to keep watch for everyone. Indeed, Long Xin was still able to sense the changes in her surroundings while she was meditating, so she was indeed the best candidate for the night watch. Of course, Long Qi could also do this, but he didn't intend to disobey the leader's order and went to sleep.
Zi Yun was still awake on the bed. Although it was dark inside, I could still sense it keenly. Of course, Zi Yun also noticed me. He only moved slightly to the side of the bed to give me an empty spot. For safety reasons, the two of us slept in the same tent. This way, no matter what happened, we could take care of each other. Of course, this was also decided after entering the Wilma Forest. No one could guarantee what would happen in Wilma Forest. Even though Long Xin had set up a Holy Word Barrier and set up a magic trap to warn us, and even though Long Xin was responsible for keeping watch, we still didn't dare to be careless. At first, Zi Yue and Zi Yun didn't want to sleep on the same bed as anyone else, but they were still suppressed by Long Xin's strong attitude. Long Xin's reason was simple: "Since you hired me, you naturally have to listen to me. If you want to throw a tantrum, you have to be alive to return home!”After that, Zi Yue naturally had nothing to say.
I didn't know when I fell asleep.
The next morning, I was awakened from my sleep by the sound of birds chirping. When I walked out of the tent, I saw Long Xin busy packing her things. Long Qi and Long Zhan were also yawning, as if they were sleepwalking. In order to reach the Southern Mountains of Mengzhong as soon as possible, we had to set off when the sky was slightly bright and we could barely see the road. Breakfast was bread, milk, and water, but we ate and drank as we traveled. After I finished eating the bread in my hand... He very consciously took over Long Zhan's job of clearing the way.
Just like that, we started to hurry on our way as soon as the sun rose. In order to avoid exhausting our physical strength, we rarely spoke during the process of moving forward. Long Zhan and I only knew how to mechanically repeat, sweeping, and then talking back. We pushed aside the weeds, shrubs, and thorns that we could see, until it was dark before we found a place to camp and set off again the next morning. This kind of day lasted for a whole week. Of course, during this process, we would also encounter some unexpected incidents. We would often be attacked by wolves, tigers, and other ferocious beasts. However, what greeted them was either Long Qi's Soul Fire Talisman or Long Xin's Lightning Art.
This week could be described as dull, monotonous, and gloomy. However, during this period of time, I had developed a special ability. That was, my body was able to subconsciously perform mechanical movements like sweeping and counter-sweeping without any deliberate control. Moreover, it was extremely standard and regulated. It was just like how a normal person did not have to control their feet to walk. Everything was so natural. Although it was unbelievable, this really happened to me. My endurance had also increased a lot. At least I could continue to slash for an entire day without feeling tired. This made me secretly marvel. I didn't expect that the idea of turning consciousness into instinct in the Skeleton Cave had actually come true. This made me recall the hack that had appeared when I was playing the Legend of Mir 2 in my previous life. I didn't expect my body to be able to train automatically like a cheat! Therefore, he very straightforwardly called this special skill AFK Farming Saber Technique. However, Long Xin and the other two stared at me like I was a monster, making me feel very uncomfortable.
"That one!" Long Zhan also said somewhat strangely,"Aren't you tired?"”
"Yes, I am!" Long Qi was also in disbelief.""During this period of time, you've been hacking for ten hours!”
"And he kept slashing!”Long Xin said as she made an exaggerated slashing gesture.
"Maybe it's because I've been chopping for too long that I've become stupid!”Zi Yue made a rare joke.
"Maybe!" "Long Zhan, you come. I'm tired now!"”
"Haha!" Long Zhan smiled slightly and replaced my position.
Two hours later.
"Did you guys notice?" Long Xin looked at us hesitantly,"The surrounding trees seem to be getting shorter and shorter, and the density is getting smaller and smaller!”
"Not bad!" Long Zhan also nodded slightly.”
"Looks like we will be able to leave the dense forest of Wilma Forest and enter the hinterland of Wilma Forest soon!”Long Qi's expression was solemn.
"Yes!" Zi Yue and Zi Yun also nodded subconsciously!
"From now on! Only then would Wilma Forest reveal its true horror!”"Everyone, stay alert!" Long Xin said slowly.”
In fact, according to what I knew from the legends, the central hinterland of Wilma Forest was the terrifying Wilma Temple. According to the Ranger Manual of this world, this was indeed the case. The only difference was that there were many Orc tribes scattered around the Wilma Temple, and we were most worried about encountering Orcs on this trip. Although we were confident that our strength was not weak, we would not be able to resist too many Orcs. According to the Ranger's Manual, there were extremely powerful experts among the Orcs. They were equivalent to the strength of the Advanced Warriors in the human world. They were the Half-Beast Warriors that made all Rangers pale. Legend had it that Half-Beast Warriors had amazing divine power. They wore iron armor and held heavy axes. Even ordinary Advanced Warriors would find it difficult to compete with them. However, Half-Beast Warriors were not the most powerful among the Orcs. Above Half-Beast Warriors were even more powerful Orc Commanders. Their strength far surpassed that of ordinary Half-Beast Warriors. If they were to be classified according to their ranks, the strength of a Half-Beast Commander should be equivalent to that of a Human Warrior's Red Moon Warrior. However, even so, there was still an existence that was more terrifying and powerful than a Half-Beast Leader among the Half-Beasts. It was a Beast Emperor. In the world of the Orcs, a Beast Emperor was the incarnation of the God of War. In history, no human warrior had ever defeated a Beast Emperor in a one-on-one battle. For thousands of years, both the ranger organization and the army of the country had tried to conquer the Wilma Forest. However, the forest was like a natural moat, almost eliminating all possibilities of conquering the Wilma Forest. The human world had also sent countless human elites to the Wilma Forest for thousands of years in an attempt to kill the orc tribes entrenched there and seize the treasures hidden in the Wilma Temple. These people included powerful high-level rangers and elite teams sent by the royal family. However, after entering the Wilma Forest, they never returned to the human world. Therefore, the Wilma Forest had long become a forbidden place in the eyes of all rangers.
Although we have no intention of taking the treasures of the Wilma Temple, or even the idea of approaching the orc tribe, our only wish is to quietly pass through this land and reach the other end of the Wilma Forest. But can the truth really let us get what we want? To be honest, none of us are confident. We can only pray that the heavens will bless us.
"I'm really sorry!" Zi Yue's face was filled with guilt. From her eyes, I could easily capture the uneasiness and fear. There was also an indescribable determination and determination. Although it felt very contradictory, I could truly feel it.
"Sis!" Zi Yun only subconsciously grabbed Zi Yue's hand tightly. It was obvious that he was also suppressing the fear in his heart.
"Let's go!" Long Xin said resolutely, then led the way. It had to be said that Long Xin was indeed a very courageous person. It seemed that the reason why Long Qi and Long Zhan obeyed her orders was not purely a master-servant relationship. Long Xin's personal charm also played a large part in this. Sometimes, as a leader, one did not necessarily have to have great strength, but one must have superhuman courage and wisdom. At this moment, although Long Xin's performance was a little impulsive and childish, However, her actions had caused a fundamental change in the mood of the team members. At least, no one showed any fear. From this point of view, Long Xin was a natural leader.
Two hours later, Long Zhan had already put the Zhanmadao back on his back, and held Asura in his hand. Because at this moment, there was no need for Long Zhan to open the way. What appeared in front of us was an endless forest. Different from the forest in front of us, there were only some delicate weeds in the forest here, and there were no shrubs and thorns with poisonous thorns. From time to time, we could see many herbivores such as antelopes, wild horses, and bison leisurely strolling on the grass in the forest. Not far away, there were lions, leopards, and other ferocious beasts that were eyeing me covetously. This scene reminded me of the African grasslands in my previous life. However, the environment here seemed to be more blessed than the African grasslands. The water and grass were lush, and the vegetation was dense. Although it lacked the empty, desolate, and desolate aura of the African grasslands, it was even more gloomy and murderous. This was because the battles here were almost instantaneous. No one would avoid the attacks of their opponents. In this world…Herbivores were not synonymous with the weak, be it antelopes or wild horses. The bison did not flee when faced with the attacks of other carnivores. Instead, they took crazy and bloody revenge. The only difference between them was that one was a herbivore, while the other was a carnivore. However, the price to pay for capturing a herbivore was quite heavy. We saw with our own eyes a group of lions trying to kill antelopes. The wild antelopes used their thick horns to pierce through their bellies, and even their intestines were pulled out. In the end, the defeated party was actually the lions. All of this left me dumbfounded.
"Heavens! Is this still an antelope?!" I muttered to myself,"If the antelopes on the African grasslands are all so brave, then wouldn't the lions on the African grasslands be extinct?"”
On the other hand, Long Xin, Zi Yue, and her brother all wore calm expressions. It was no wonder. After all, this was not Earth. Perhaps this was a normal thing in their eyes.
Of course, I also knew that this wasn't the time to be curious. I could only raise my spirits and watch the surroundings vigilantly. Fortunately, we haven't encountered any unexpected incidents. After entering the heart of Wilma Forest, the first day passed without any mishaps.
Under the night sky, beside the bonfire, the bright bonfire reflected our red faces. Everyone's expression was solemn. Not far away, Long Qi was vigilantly looking around.
