On the second day of the trip, nothing happened during the day. The forest was as calm as a lifeless cemetery. It was silent and strange. Such quietness made people feel uncomfortable.

But at night, it was as lively as a tavern full of adventurers—noisy and noisy, teasing and screaming, accompanied by unexplained fights.

At first, an adult Kailan lion quietly approached Barrett and his party while they were dining. Until the distance between the two sides was only about six or seven steps, the keen perception of Barret and the dwarf still did not find it, and the magic alarm and trap were not triggered.

But Barrett discovered something wrong in time based on his experience and intuition.

He instantly pulled the "Steel Bride" out of his waist, holding both hands across his chest. The barbarian didn't really see what was in the air, but he still waved his weapon and threatened loudly, and the other party also showed his figure in the light of the bonfire.

Kailan lion is a nocturnal animal, and its sky blue fur can make it in a very special stealth state at night. Coupled with the hazy fog and night, even a person with strong perception will not be able to. It's hard to spot it coming.

The fur of this monster is soft and light, smoother than the tender skin of a girl, and it is the favorite of nobles to decorate their wardrobes. Especially for those proud and vain ladies, a coat made of Kalan lion fur can make its owner the focus of all the guests at the ball.

It is no exaggeration to say that a complete and flawless Kailan lion fur can easily be sold for thousands of gold coins.

In Barrett's eyes, it was a moving golden bag. Although the number of Kailan lions is very rare, Barrett will not care about the statement of an endangered species, nor does he think that it is bad for a certain creature to be killed.

The adventurer's simple values ​​of "above gold coins" make him think that all this is a matter of course.

But night is not a good time for hunting after all. Visibility is limited, no one knows exactly what's lurking in the darkness outside the campfire, and there's a good chance that the heat of the fight will lead to something troublesome. More importantly, even if the Kailan Lion was wounded, Barritt could not guarantee that he would be able to keep it, so he hesitated for a while and did not take the shot immediately.

However, it is really heartwarming to have such a large amount of gold coins delivered to your door. Just when Barrett wanted to signal to Old Will to use a spell to keep the "gold coins", the Kailan lion glanced at everyone lightly, and then calmly retreated into the darkness...

"It's so beautiful!" This is the half-elf's amazement after seeing this creature.

It will be more beautiful after death, this is the thought in Barrett's heart. That meant piles of gold coins were bunched together and emitting a dazzling light that would probably drive the red-haired girl crazy. The barbarian thought with some bad intentions.

Not long after 'that pile of gold coins' left, trouble came again - a ferocious pack of winter wolves surrounded them.

According to Barrett's rough estimate, the number of wolves is as many as fifty or sixty. This is a real battle, because winter wolves are arguably one of the most dangerous groups of wolves. They are huge, cunning, stoic, and can breathe freezing air like a frost spider.

The winter wolf is also a magical creature.

In fact, there are certain intelligent creatures in the forest that will not venture to this area closer to the Mist Castle, and the intelligence of the winter wolf is not low, and the two-day journey is not too far. ", Barrett can only think that his gang is like handsome Jack, some unlucky.

The battle did not start directly, and the two sides held a brief confrontation.

Old Will leaned on his back against a tall fir tree, the ogre was at the forefront, Barrett and the half-elf were on both sides, and the three circled Old Will in an arc.

The dwarf disappeared in place, and Barrett knew that only the most outstanding assassins could use stealth directly without using shadows, but Barrett could still detect him at close range through keen perception. It has to be said that although this stealth skill is very strong, it is still a little short of Kai Lanshi's talent skill.

After a loud wolf howl, the battle began.

Six or seven winter wolves came out of the crowd and pressed forward together. After Old Will shouted a short syllable of unknown meaning behind him, Barrett found that the Iron Bride in his hand became even hotter—the blade was covered with a layer of burning flame.

The half-elves were the first to hear the sound of fighting. Apparently, the winter wolves thought that the tall ogres and barbarians were more difficult to deal with, so they used Estelle as a breakthrough.

While paying attention to the listening half-elf's situation, Barret focused most of his attention on the two winter wolves that were constantly cruising in front of his eyes.

One of the winter wolves had a scar on its back that was scratched by an unknown creature with its claws, while the other walked with a slight limp. In the darkness farther away, a flickering blood-red eye stared at them.

Although it is a good choice to use fire to deal with the winter wolf, Barret has never used this enchanted weapon, and he is not only worried that he will be injured by the fire on the sword.

Barbarian has two flying axes hanging from his waist, a sword in his left hand, and a round oak shield on his right arm. The shield is covered with a thin layer of iron. Although the defense is limited, it can save lives if used well. He has prepared several pairs of such small round shields in a cowhide bag. Like the flying axe, they are all consumables.

Barrett twisted his neck a few times and waved his weapon slightly. The flames on the sword drew a beautiful trajectory. "Iron Bride" has become "Fire Beauty", and he needs to get to know each other again, at least to say "Hello" first.

Winter Wolf didn't have time to "say hello" to the barbarian and his weapon, the lame one attacked first.

It bared its teeth, castrated fiercely, and its slightly bowed body instantly increased the speed of its attack to the maximum.

Barrett bent his knees and charged up, taking the opportunity to swing his sword, but found that the winter wolf suddenly stopped and jumped a few steps to the side. Then the scarred one rushed over while taking advantage of the gap, but also stopped before it got close enough.

They were teasing him, Barret thought to himself, Winter Wolf wanted to use this method to wear down his patience, make him impatient and paralyzed, and thus create a loophole in his defenses.

"Come on, bastards! Let me smash your skulls!" Barrett heard the ogre's loud roar and the dull sound of the warhammer hitting the shield. But Barrett didn't hear the irritability in the ogre's tone. This ogre was able to control his emotions in battle very well, which was very rare for the ogre race.

Barrett is also not impatient at all. He is an experienced elite adventurer with sufficient patience. What's more, their team is not without long-range attack means - although there is no archer, they have a mage.

A 'crackling' sound of whistling sounded from behind Barrett, followed by an explosive heat wave and a tragic whimper. Barrett estimated that Old Will was shooting, and the support should be the direction of the half-elf. .

He clearly felt that in the darkness in the distance, those swaying red eyes seemed a little turbulent. Then there was another loud howl, and several more winter wolves emerged from the darkness, five in front of Barrett alone.

It seemed that the wolves had finished their temptation and were ready to attack. Barrett smiled excitedly.
