Path of Light.

Chapter 104 105. Jungle Life
The Malaga jungle is more difficult than the elves describe.

Although there is an endless green sea here, you can hear the sound of insects all night long, and you can touch the blueberries on the bushes when you wake up in the morning...

But the elves forgot to say: this is a jungle that few people usually set foot on, and there is no road in the jungle.

It is difficult to walk in the jungle of Malaga during the rainy season. Every time you take a step forward, your feet will sink into the soft leaf mold.

When lifting the foot, water seeps out of the footprint very quickly...

Roy's shoes were wet and his feet were soaked white.

Clare was much more comfortable, for he wore a pair of boots.

Walking through the jungle, this set of light leather armor on him also played a big role.

At least not like Roy, whose linen clothes were all torn apart by the thorns on the vines, Roy was almost like a beggar now.

What's worse is that there are still scratches all over his body that are not serious. The thorns of the vines are somewhat poisonous, and the scratched wounds are itchy and painful.

Especially in the extremely sweltering heat in the jungle, it would be even more unbearable to sweat on the wound.

"Roy, you really should buy a set of light leather armor."

Claire waved the hatchet, walked ahead to open the way, and said at the same time.

There was also a smear of blood on her delicate face, but Claire didn't care.

He even thought that if he could leave a scar on his face, it might make him look more fierce.

But he also didn't intend to take off his leather armor and lend it to Roy, because the wounds made by those vines on his body really hurt...

Roy also felt a little regretful. If he had known this was the case, he should have bought a set of leather armor.

In fact, he was originally worried that wearing a leather armor in the jungle would not only make him breathless, but also the whole leather armor would have a bad smell, so he decided to wear a set of linen clothes and go to the Malaga jungle to explore .

He's had enough of it now.

As long as the body is scratched by the thorns of those vines, it will become painful and itchy.

Roy could only ask Claire to rush forward to open the way, and Roy obediently followed behind Claire, carefully guarding the surrounding situation.

Every time he rests, he will use the 'secondary healing technique' to heal his injuries, but the scratches and stab wounds along the way are still unavoidable.

After each break, Roy had to find a place with a wide view, and check the location of him and Claire according to the map.

……

For Roy, life in the jungle these days is quite difficult. Every day, his body will be covered with some scratches, which will be healed quickly.

There are no scars left on his body, but he has practiced the 'secondary healing technique' a lot.

Claire also has a very fulfilling life every day. In addition to opening the road ahead, she also needs to complete the jungle sketching homework every day. When she is free, she will take out the marbles she picked up from the magic pocket to carve Earl Amelia's bust.

Roy is responsible for finding food for the two of them every day, almost all of which are some jungle specialty fruits.

The Malaga jungle is rich in products, and the most indispensable thing is fruit. As long as you look carefully, you will find some delicious berries that are hard to find in Castletown.

The specialty of the Malaga jungle is the berry that grows from the top of a tree more than [-] meters high. When ripe, it will have a faint taste of chocolate and red wine.

It took the two of them three days to finally find the check-in point for the first geography task.

Claire was doing fine, but Roy's linen was scratched all over him.

This made the instructor responsible for stamping look at Roy frequently.

"Welcome, children, you have successfully found check-in point one."

The instructor in charge of signing in said to the two of them.

Claire made a victory gesture to Roy, and ran to the side to rest.

Roy took out the map, and the instructor stamped a blue stamp on the first check-in point on the map.

"I wish you all the best for the rest of your journey, children!"

With the instructor's blessing, Roy and Claire left check-in point No. [-]. When they walked out of the check-in point, they also met other students who came to sign in.

Roy greeted them warmly.

Among them, a group of elf students actually rushed over from the No. [-] check-in point marked by Roy, so Roy asked that group of students about the road conditions along the way to the No. [-] check-in point when the rules allowed.

Seeing Roy's distressed appearance, those elf students didn't hide anything, and they enthusiastically told Roy what he would meet along the way...

Roy and Claire then rushed to check-in point No. [-] without stopping.

……

With the kind reminder from the elf classmate, Roy and Claire groped forward along their footsteps, and the journey along the way was relatively smooth.

Especially for Claire, there is no need to go through thorns and thorns every step, so the speed of progress is much faster...

When taking a break halfway, Claire sat on a boulder covered with moss and thought to Roy:
"Roy, let me do the math for you. It has already taken six days. Our outdoor practice class lasts for one month. You still have seven check-in points. If we can If it is guaranteed to take three days, it is estimated that there is still time, otherwise, I think you need to selectively give up a few very far sign-in points."

Roy squatted in a bush beside him, picking some more berries.

Because the group of classmates just reminded the two of them that it would be difficult to find edible food for the next section of the road, so Roy planned to make more reserves.

The next journey is indeed full of unknowns, and we don't know what kind of difficulties we will encounter later.

"Try it first, this is the shortest path I calculated." Roy said.

He still intends to walk through a few check-in points first, and then decide whether to go through all the check-in points.

Seeing Claire hugging the stone and constantly picking the stone with a carving knife, Roy asked, "Claire, how is your mission going?"

Claire spread her hands helplessly, and said:

"Drilling around in the jungle all day long, what inspiration can I get? Now I just write down what I see and hear every day, and add some modifications. It is estimated that after we finish these check-in points, my travel notes will be almost the same. In my spare time Will carve stone statues..."

Roy said a little embarrassedly: "Sorry, I asked you to run such a long way with me."

Indeed, Claire didn't have to work so hard.

Roy is the only one who is unlucky, not only has the task of survival in the wild, but also the task of stepping on the map...

"We're partners!" Claire didn't know what to say after hearing Roy's apologetic words.

While the two were talking, they saw another team of elves emerging from the jungle in front of them.

There are four elf students in this elf team, but one of them is being carried by a companion, so they stop and go all the way.

"Roy, a team in front seems to be in trouble, do you want to go and have a look?" Claire stood up from the stone, looked over there and said.

Since we met in the jungle, it is impossible not to help.

"Let's go and have a look." Roy hurriedly stopped to pick berries, and followed Claire to the elf team.

After walking in, Roy discovered that the team was composed of four silver moon elves, all of whom were wearing delicate light leather armor, but one of the silver-haired female elves had a linen bandage wrapped around her right shin. There are still spots of blood oozing out of it, it seems that it should be injured there.

"What's wrong with you? Do you need help?"

Now that she met the Silver Moon Elf, Claire took the initiative to ask.

"When we climbed a cliff yesterday, Bertha fell from it and her calf was pierced by a saber-toothed vine." One of the silver moon elves explained to Roy.

When they looked at Roy who was following Claire, they couldn't help but look a few more times...

The clothes on him were just too weird, not even a bum in Castletown would wear them.

What these Silver Moon elves didn't expect was that it was this disheveled half-elf who took the initiative to come over, stared at Bertha's calf, and said brazenly, "Can I see it? I think I should be able to." Can help!"

The Silver Moon Elf who just spoke said euphemistically: "I have already drank the life potion."

This sentence was obviously a rejection of Roy.

Roy naturally understood, and he stopped quickly.

Claire next to him immediately felt wronged for his friend, and said unceremoniously:
"My friend is a trainee priest. If Bertha needs treatment, Roy can check it first. If you don't think it's necessary, then we'll leave!"

Hearing what Claire said, the three silver moon elves on the opposite side looked at the companion who had just refused...

The Silver Moon Elf didn't expect that Roy would be a trainee priest, and his face flushed for a while, and he whispered with some guilt:
"That... please wait a moment, Bertha really needs treatment, if possible, please."

Roy came over and asked the silver moon elf to find a clean place and sit the injured elf girl under the tree.

While undoing the linen bandage on her leg, she said, "Check the wound first, has the wound been cleaned before?"

"It's a puncture wound, no bones, washed with diluted life sap..." the silver moon elf said hastily.

Looks like he should be the squad leader.

Roy nodded, thinking that it was really extravagant. Not only did he drink the life potion, but he also used the life sap dilution to clean it. I have to say that these treatment methods are still very effective when there are no priests and priests around. of.

Carefully peeling off the blood-stained bandage, Roy saw a bloody hole with tear marks on the elf girl's calf.

Although the blood hole had scabbed over, such a large wound was not sutured, and blood continued to ooze out.

Roy quickly cast the 'Secondary Healing Technique'...

In the past few days, Roy has been casting this magical spell on himself constantly, so it feels very good.

The operation was successful, and a string of clear light with holy light fell on the calf of the elf lady named Bertha...

The wound on the calf healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the silver moon elves squatting around and watching all exclaimed in joy.

"Thank you!"

The four Silver Moon Elves thanked Roy and Claire repeatedly.

"It's nothing, this is what every trainee priest should do."

Roy said calmly, and rewrapped the wound with a linen bandage while talking.

Some serious injuries suddenly turned into minor injuries. The elf lady named Bertha was able to stand up with the support of her companions, but she was still limping when she walked...
