173 the enemy in the forest (1/3)
after hearing ashvich’s words, the players around them could not help but glance at the entire relay station.
don’t be silly. Do you think it’ll be so easy for us to find someone who can be sent to follow and observe us? ” Ashvich said.
Even though Mystra had many teleportation portals to various towns and dimensions in Arthur, it was still a very difficult place to go.
However, to the ordinary residents of Arthur, apart from walking on two feet, the carriage rental service at the relay station was a more comfortable way of traveling.
this time, wang ningwei’s group of twenty people was going to frost tree town, a small town on the border of mystra. they would contact the town security there and get information on the bandit gang before slowly carrying out their plan.
however, the group of them had encountered a problem in the first step of how to get to frosttree town. the floating city did not arrange for any guides for them. at most, they were told where they were and who they should meet.
the entire process was left to the players to think of a way.
Therefore, after some discussion, they decided to go to the courier station first. They hired a few carriages and wanted to rely on the coachman who knew the way to take them to their destination.
There were too many legends about the wild on the forum.
zhao xu was standing next to a heavy pine pillar, and he was observing the twenty people in front of him from a shadowy corner.
The magic book in his hand was about a ritual to go to the hero’s land, Joseph garden, in the outer plane.
Zhao Xu was very curious about this ritual because anyone who was injured or died in the garden of Joseph could be revived at dawn the next day. It was as if they were able to enjoy the effects of the level 9 divine spell of resurrection, complete resurrection.
Of course, Zhao Xu immediately thought of a way to abuse the effects of this plane.
But after hearing what ashvich said, Zhao Xu still decided to be honest and leaned back a little against the weight-bearing pine pillar.
at the same time, he was also observing the rest of the inn, trying to figure out the information about the other custodian.
if they were just a group of ordinary players, the floating city might really just let them live and die on their own. otherwise, it would not be called a mission.
but when he considered the fact that wang ningwei would be one of them and the possibility that he would be tested, zhao xu guessed that there must be a twenty-first person in this team.
as for whether the other party was following him invisibly, hiding in the spirit world, or simply using magic techniques like the eagle’s eye technique to monitor the situation in this area from a distance.
at this moment, jiang shan, who had gone to deal with the relay, came back dejectedly and said to the players, ” the courier station said that all the available carriages have been requisitioned, and the regular carriage to frosttree town will only set off tomorrow afternoon.
After hearing this, the players who were close to them could not help but frown. This meant that their journey would be a little troublesome.
Jiang Shan was frowning as well. He didn’t expect his first step to rope in this group of players to be so thwarted. He didn’t take the initiative to contract everyone’s transportation link. It wouldn’t be easy for him to regain dominance again.
at this moment, he couldn’t help but glance at wang ningwei and the other woman who were sitting on the wooden chairs. He had given up on the idea of getting the magic items from Wang Ningwei after several setbacks.
However, since he was facing a popular opponent, he had to think of a way to snatch the hidden leadership rights from the other party.
after zhao xu listened to everyone’s conversation, a few possibilities flashed through his mind.
he took out the stack of parchments that the middle-aged woman had given him and looked at them carefully. one of them was a simple map of the way from mystera to frosttree town.
Zhao Xu had originally thought that he would have to wait until he reached frosttree town before he could start worrying about the safety of this team.
Now that he thought about it, there was probably a hidden hand behind all this.
No extra carriage, this kind of nonsense could only deceive people like Jiang Shan who had no common sense.
As the most central town around Mistra, it was impossible for the courier station to not have extra carriages, and the carriage to frosttree town would only arrive the next day.
it was obvious that there was a mastermind behind this, forcing these players to reach frosttree town at a slower speed.
zhao xu looked at the ruler on the map and used his finger to measure the distance between them. then, he did some simple calculations.
His heart immediately sank.
it was too much of a coincidence.
based on the speed of the carriage, they could definitely reach frosttree town before nightfall.
Now, if they were to travel on foot, they would definitely have to find a temporary shelter in the wilderness.
Sure enough, after hearing Jiangshan’s words, ashvich and Wang Ningwei both had thoughtful expressions.
they had been exposed to the details of the entire trip before zhao xu, so they immediately realized what they were going to face today.
A night raid had always been the most annoying type of attack for players.
Even if they managed to resist the attack, the spell slots they used that night would be counted as the spell slots for the next day.
if he used one spell, he would have one less spell the next day.
zhao xu could only hope that this group of players would obediently go offline at night to ensure their safety. otherwise, he would be in for a big headache.
He could not help but cast a ‘see through invisibility’ spell on himself to see if there was a mage from the floating city sneering at the players.
then we won’t be able to reach frosttree town tonight. Why don’t we make an appointment for tonight and tomorrow’s log-in and log-off times so we can set off together? ” Wang Ningwei suggested.
“ah? he actually can’t make it today?”
it’s fine. We’ll just coordinate with each other. Basically, those who can come for this task have already coordinated their time.
When Jiang Shan saw everyone discussing, he hurriedly said, ” don’t worry, everyone. I’ll bring everyone to a nearby adventurer house later to purchase some tents and sleeping bags. If there’s not enough, I’ll pay for it. let’s just have a bonfire party tonight.”
he glanced at wang ningwei proudly as he spoke.
What could be better than having an adventure in the wild and having a good time by the bonfire?
Wang Ningwei didn’t say anything when she saw that everyone had accepted Jiang Shan’s suggestion. She just smiled and sat down.
———————-
after zhao xu followed the rest of the team out of the city, he found a corner and used the ” mount summon ” spell to summon a light horse for himself.
now that zhao xu had a spellcasting level of 6, his mount’s duration had also increased to 12 hours, which was basically enough for him to last until night.
under the effects of the invisibility spell, zhao xu’s mount was also invisible, and so was the ain stone that was floating above his head.
compared to wang ningwei and a few other mages who had learned “mount summoning,” the ten or so players on the scene were all walking on their own legs.
they could only cast envious looks at wang ningwei and asvich, thinking that one day, they would save enough money to learn this spell.
only by walking on his own would he be able to experience the convenience of riding a mount.
For the sake of comfort, Jiang Shan had chosen ‘Mount summoning’ as his free spell.
but later on, he found that the players ‘spell slots were very limited, so in order to show off in front of everyone at the critical moment, he held back the idea of using spells.
The main road from Mystra to frosttree town was a shady path, and the most common thing along the way were low, wild trees.
Although the entire team of mages was made up of scattered players, they were all from Mystra, so they could still tacitly arrange their formation, and the members advanced in three groups.
“Do you think there will be any risk tonight?” Ashvich gently controlled the horse under her and whispered to Wang Ningwei.
“we’ll be more vigilant. after the bonfire party, we’ll persuade them to go offline. after all, the wilderness is also very dangerous.” wang ningwei consoled.
asvich, on the other hand, had a look of disdain on his face as he looked at the enthusiastic novice mages around him. “you really think we’re out for a vacation. didn’t you read the ‘101 ways to die in the wild’ post on the forum?”
“it’s not like everyone has done it before.” Wang Ningwei said with a smile.
However, she looked at the few mages who were still chatting in the front, and her brows could not help but furrow with worry. She was analyzing in her heart what kind of test this adventure would test them in.
After a round of discussion, everyone’s main opinion was to choose a more remote route. They would rather take some risks and save a quarter of the journey.
Zhao Xu sat quietly on his Mount and checked his spell slots.
his focus was on the night attack tonight, and he was thinking about how to arrange his spell slots.
“Ah!”
suddenly, the mage player at the front screamed and fell to the ground.
In front of his chest was half an arrow feather.
