The Blue Sea Forest looks like the boundless blue sea from a distance, so it is called the Blue Sea Forest.
Wearing the mercenary's standard leather armor and dressed like an ordinary mercenary, Gray stepped into the blue sea forest.
At the same time, there were many mercenaries who entered the Blue Sea Forest with him, most of them were in groups, and there were also many who were walking alone.
Gray blended in among them. Although he was younger, he was not too conspicuous.
“If only I could find one this time!”
There are young mercenaries with expressions of expectation on their faces. A plant of green radish, even the worst-looking one, is worth a few gold coins. Obtaining one plant is equivalent to their normal income for several years. They cannot help but be eager. .
"Move faster and go deeper!"
The experienced old mercenaries urged their companions to take them as deep as possible into the Blue Sea Forest, because according to their experience, generally the deeper into the forest, the greater the chance of obtaining green radish.
Gray's target was not the green grass, so he did not rush into the depths like these mercenaries, but moved forward calmly.
But even so, his speed is not too slow.
Shadow Snake's infrared sensing ability allows him to clearly perceive the dangers hidden in the forest. He does not have to be like other mercenaries who have to beware of dangers that may appear at any time while moving forward.
In such a forest, the most dangerous thing is not the wild beasts such as tigers and leopards, but the various poisonous snakes hidden in the woods.
Although they were wearing leather armor, it was obviously impossible for the leather armor to protect the exposed parts of their bodies. If they were bitten by such a poisonous snake and failed to take the antidote in time, they would probably die.
More than two hours later, with a speed that was not too slow, Gray had penetrated more than ten miles into the forest.
Suddenly, he heard a quarrel ahead.
"Hand it over!"
"Why? We discovered this first."
"Haha, why, because we are members of the Giant Crocodile Mercenary Group."
…
After walking a few dozen meters, he saw both sides of the dispute.
On one side were four men uniformly wearing tan leather armor. On their left arms, they all had a wristband. On the wristband, there was a ferocious crocodile.
These four people should be the people who just called themselves the Giant Crocodile Mercenary Group.
On the other side, there were three people. The leather armors on the three people were different colors. They were obviously a team that was put together temporarily.
At this time, the three people were surrounded by four people from the Giant Crocodile Mercenary Group. One of them was holding a plant about ten centimeters tall, with many wrinkled leaves and a green plant.
"It seems you really don't intend to hand it over."
A member of the Giant Crocodile Mercenary Group said with a cold face.
"Dream, we found it first."
Although they were surrounded by four people and the situation was very unfavorable to them, the three mercenaries had no intention of surrendering.
A green radish plant, the cheapest one is worth a few gold coins, is simply a huge fortune to the mercenaries, and they will never let go of it no matter what.
"Do it!"
The mercenary of the Giant Crocodile Mercenary Group with a cold face snorted coldly. The other three companions drew their weapons without hesitation and pounced on the three of them. The two parties soon fought against each other.
"Medium Blood Warrior strength? Are you a Blood Warrior...?"
"Let us go, we are willing to hand it over..."
"Huh, now? It's too late..."
The battle ended quickly. There were already more than three people in the Giant Crocodile Mercenary Group. The cold-faced man in the Giant Crocodile Mercenary Group had practiced blood magic and had reached the level of a mid-level blood warrior.
Without any big surprise, the three-person mercenary team was wiped out. Scarlet blood spilled on the forest clearing. The three people fell here. They might become food for wild beasts or nutrients for plants.
The entire battle was witnessed by Gray, but he had no intention of helping the three of them. He quietly avoided the four members of the Giant Crocodile Mercenary Group from one side and continued towards his destination.
Yesterday, he had heard about this giant evil mercenary group. This mercenary group was not weak, and there were probably fierce blood warriors in charge. He could not offend this mercenary group because of these three people. After all, he had nothing to do with these three people. Relationship.
Of course, the most important thing is that this mercenary group did not provoke him. If it did provoke him, he would not mind having a fight with them.
With the ability of shadow, he is like a fish in water in this forest. Even if the opponent is an entire mercenary group, he is not afraid at all.
Later, he encountered many such disputes again. Sometimes the two parties in the dispute were the Giant Crocodile Mercenary Group and other mercenary teams, and sometimes they were also two unknown mercenary teams.
Relying on the strength of the Vicious Blood Warrior, Gray discovered them in advance and easily avoided them.
He ate some dry food at noon, and in the afternoon, when the sun set, he had reached a deeper part of the Bihai Forest.
When you come here, you rarely encounter those mercenaries, because at this depth, you may encounter blood beasts.
With the strength of those mercenaries, if they really encounter a blood beast, except for the giant evil mercenary group, the other mercenary groups will definitely be destroyed.
Except for a few who are more courageous, most people still dare not go to this depth.
After eating solid food and practicing blood magic as usual in the afternoon, Gray found a cave and sprinkled some snake-repellent medicine at the entrance of the cave.
I put some hay and a blanket on it, and slept in the cave for one night.
It was really hard to sleep in the open and in a cave. When Gray woke up the next day, he felt uncomfortable all over.
But there is no other way. If you want to go to that ruins, you must spend the night in the forest.
"It would be great if there was a rune space bag!"
After stretching, Gray sighed slightly.
The space bag was something that only existed in fantasy in the previous life, but in this world, it actually exists.
It's just that this kind of thing is extremely difficult to make, and the materials required are also extremely special, making the quantity extremely rare.
As far as Gray knows, in the Marquis of Sidney, the only thing that can be confirmed is that the Sidney family owns the space bag. It is unknown whether the Earl Ford family and the Earl Smalley family own it.
If there is such a space bag, it will definitely be a must-have for home travel.
Installing a few blankets and quilts and making a bed in the cave will definitely be much more comfortable than it is now. Of course, it would be better if it could fit a bed.
After finishing his blood magic practice in the morning, Gray continued on the road. Because he might encounter a blood beast, he was a lot more careful in his actions.
Wow!
The sound of rushing water reached Gray's ears. Gray stood still for a moment, judged the direction of the stream, and then walked in that direction.
Soon, a creek that was not too spacious appeared in front of us.
You can see the bottom of the clear stream at a glance. It twists and turns and hits the rocks beside the stream, making a crisp and clear sound.
Gray did not rush to the creek. In the forest, many animals like to come to the creek to drink water, and this will cause the forest's "hunters" to wait for the rabbit by the creek.
His eyes searched everywhere, and after using his infrared sensing ability to confirm that there were no other animals around, he walked to the west.
Holding a handful of water, he began to clean it.
There is still a lot of drinking water, but it is absolutely impossible to use it to wash hands and faces. At this time, there is a stream that can be used to wash faces.
Suddenly, at this moment.
rustle!
In a forest beside the stream behind him, the leaves suddenly shook violently, and then a huge creature with green hair suddenly rushed out and rushed towards him.
"what happened?"
Feeling the huge movement coming from behind, Gray's expression changed. He had just used his infrared sensing ability to detect that there should be no animals around.
He didn't have time to stand up, so he rolled on the spot and rolled to the side.
thump!
Not long after he rolled away, a cyan figure had already pounced on him. Because Gray avoided it, the cyan figure failed to stop in time and pounced directly into the stream.
A large amount of stream water was splashed up, and Gray next to it got wet all over.
Gray, who was soaked in the rain, retreated sharply, distanced himself, and looked at the huge creature that had jumped into the stream.
And this huge thing that fell into the stream has easily climbed to the shore.
This is a huge creature with green hair all over its body, more than two meters long, with long and strong limbs, and its toes are full of sharp black claws.
The position of the mouth is slightly protruding, and the teeth are bared, revealing sharp teeth.
"Wind Wolf!"
Gray was very familiar with this painting. Although he had never seen Feng Lang, he had practiced the blood technique deduced by Feng Lang and had seen Feng Lang's oil paintings.
He naturally knew very well what a wind wolf looked like, so he could tell at a glance that it was a wind wolf.
"What's going on? Why didn't my infrared sense... detect it just now?"
Judging from the sudden movement of the wind wolf jumping out of the woods, the opponent must have been lying in wait in the woods for a long time.
But just now, his infrared perception failed to detect the other party. This is absolutely abnormal.
Infrared sensing can detect the infrared radiation emitted by animals. Even if the animal is hiding in the woods, it should be able to find it.
He couldn't help but enhance his infrared perception and looked at the wind wolf in front of him.
"Can't feel it?"
But the result shocked him again. Even if he enhanced his infrared sensing ability to the strongest level, he could not detect the wind wolf in front of him through infrared sensing.
"How could this happen? Doesn't Wind Wolf have the ability to evade infrared perception?"
The speculation put forward was denied by Gray himself the next moment.
"No, that's not right. If Feng Lang has this ability, I should also have this ability, but obviously I don't."
It stands to reason that if Feng Lang has the ability to evade infrared perception, he, who has the blood of Feng Lang, should also be able to do so, but he is very sure that he does not have this ability to evade infrared perception.
