Path of Light.

Chapter 589 590. Wanderer Camp

Three heads suddenly popped out of a pit not far away...

They threw off their camouflage and quickly ran towards the direction of the boulder.

The female wood elf ranger was running in the front with her long legs. She was carrying a bow on her back and was running like a light deer...

She jumped lightly onto the boulder, ignoring the dark creatures gathering from all around.

However, the half-elf ranger who was at the back frequently shot out magic arrows with ice elements, killing the dark creatures that kept gathering around him.

The facial lines on the female wood elf's face scared Roy, but when Roy noticed her clear eyes, the female wood elf ranger smiled brightly at Roy:

"Do you need help? Are you a priest of the Temple of Liberty?"

Roy lay powerlessly on the boulder, looked at the wood elf female ranger in front of him, and asked in confusion: "Who are you...?"

The Wood Elf female ranger smiled proudly again: "We are a group of demon hunters in the Dark Land. We usually wander around the Dark Land, hunt some magic fog, and occasionally hunt this more dangerous dark sickle."

Seeing Roy's bewildered expression, the Wood Elf Ranger explained:

"The Dark Scythe is the dark creature you just killed. Oh! Has any elf ever told you that you speak Elvish very well..."

Roy smiled shyly and explained, "Actually, I'm a half-elf, and I've lived in the Silver Moon Elf Kingdom since I was a child!"

"You actually dare to walk alone in this land, you are very brave!"

The Wood Elf female ranger praised Roy.

"..."

This made Roy speechless. Was lying here the price of his courage?
The wood elf female ranger reached out, grabbed Roy's weak hand and shook it, then introduced herself:
"My name is Evely, nice to meet you!"

"My name is Roy!"

Roy said with some difficulty.

Although Roy did not admit that he was a priest, Evelyn thought so.

She thought Roy was a priest who had fallen behind from the expeditionary army, but she couldn't ask too much about such a shameful thing, so she grinned and said with a sexy smile:
"No need to explain. We understand you. In fact, there are priests in the wanderer camp nearby."

At this time, the two companions had already cleared out the dark creatures nearby and climbed onto the boulder. They stood behind Evely and looked down at Roy who was lying on the boulder.

Evelyn extended a friendly invitation to Roy:
"Would you like to come back to camp with us?"

In this situation, Roy didn't even have the right to choose and could only nod gratefully.

……

The red sky of the Dark Land soon turned completely black...

The dark creatures around became extremely active. The half-elf held the longbow and continuously shot ice magic arrows to kill the approaching dark creatures.

The human warrior squatted down, looked at Roy's face, and asked in surprise:

"Humanity?"

The wood elf ranger Evely replied:
"He said he was a half-elf!"

"Oh!"

The human warrior bent his body, grabbed Roy's armpits with both hands, and tried to help him up from the boulder.

"Let me carry him!"

The human warrior said to Evely.

Evely stood up, jumped off the boulder first, and walked in front to lead the way...

The human warrior carried Roy on his back and followed Evely's steps to jump off the boulder.

The half-elf ranger fell behind and was responsible for covering the retreat.

The human warrior stared at the Wood Elf Ranger Evelyn who was walking in front of him, while also watching the unusually active dark creatures around him.

His shoulders were very broad, and Roy lay on his broad back, and he didn't feel any bumps when he ran...

This was the first time that Roy walked in the wild of the dark land after dark. The dark creatures were wandering around him quickly. They wrapped Roy in a layer of rags, and Roy's breath was completely covered up.

After walking for a while, Roy didn't know where they were going. It seemed that they were getting farther and farther away from the Dark Portal Expeditionary Camp.

However, in the dark, they seem to have a unique way of identifying directions.

Several times, Roy almost collided with the dark creatures speeding through the air.

There's no way, these dark creatures are simply too active.

And there are those dark creatures everywhere...

"Have you lost your companions?" the human warrior asked Roy in Imperial language.

Roy couldn't understand his Imperial language, so he could only speak in Elvish:

"What are you saying? I don't understand the Imperial language." The human warrior could only speak in Elvish:
"I'm asking you, where are your companions? Have you lost them?"

"Well, actually I'm the only one out hunting this time!" Roy said honestly.

The human warrior paused for a moment, then said to Roy in a deep voice:

"Even if you are really alone, don't tell others casually. The best answer is to say that your companion will be back soon."

Then he chuckled and said to Roy, "This is a world where the strong prey on the weak. This world follows the law of the jungle, and only the strong can survive. There aren't many demon hunters who can survive here without blood on their hands!"

Roy asked doubtfully:

"Then why did you save me? Shouldn't you wait until I die and then take away all my wealth, or just kill me and take away my luggage? Isn't this more in line with the survival rules of this world?"

"Our companion is injured and needs your help. After all, you are a priest! So we plan to take you back to the wanderer camp..."

The human warrior paused before introducing himself to Roy:
"By the way, my name is Stander, and the half-blood elf ranger behind me is called Lorepage."

"..."

Roy's eyes were a little dull. The other party stated his intention so directly. He was really worried: he went to the homeless camp, rescued their companions, and was killed by them. That would be too tragic.

……

This wanderer camp was quite far from the Dark Portal Expedition camp. The three-man demon hunter team carried Roy on their backs and walked for half a day in the dark wilderness before arriving at a dilapidated camp with dim light.

There was a bonfire burning in the middle of the camp.

There was no vegetation in the dark land, and Roy couldn't guess what was burning in the bonfire with cold flames...

The campsite was so dilapidated that it looked like a garbage dump in a wasteland. No one knew what methods the wanderer camp here had used, but those dark creatures that were extremely active in the dark night were no longer active in this area.

There are some residents in the homeless camp...

The human warrior Stander carried Roy into the camp and brought him to the campfire. He then took out three soul crystals from his arms and threw them into the campfire.

Stander said to Roy:
"You shouldn't be short of this stuff! The rule here is that if you stay overnight, you have to throw a soul crystal into the fire."

Roy took out a soul crystal from his magic waist bag with some difficulty and threw it into the campfire.

……

This area was once a major battlefield.

The expeditionary force of the Statue of Liberty killed a dark lord here, so before the new dark lord appears, the aura emanating from here will automatically make many dark creatures stay away.

So this place soon developed into a homeless camp.

There are many demon hunters living in the camp. They enter the dark land for the purpose of training, hunting and seeking excitement.

There are also some residents who are mercenaries who have secretly withdrawn from the expeditionary force. They are unable to return to the Elf Continent through the Dark Portal and can only live in the wanderer camp.

There is a small trading market in this camp, as well as a place to exchange potions. However, there is also an unwritten rule in the camp: if you want to spend the night in the camp, you have to throw a soul crystal into the campfire.

A few demon hunters sat in front of the campfire, seemingly warming themselves by the fire, but a trace of darkness emanated from their bodies.

The several witchers who were roasting by the fire were all dwarf warriors. They seemed to be together, but they seemed to know Stander. When they saw Stander carrying a human back, they all stretched their necks to look behind Stander.

"Stand, where did you pick it up from?" a dwarf warrior asked loudly in a muffled voice.

"To the northwest, there is a priest who left the team without permission." Stander responded with a chuckle.

"You guys are so nice to that guy Ryan that you're even helping him look for priests!" the dwarf warrior shouted at the top of his voice, fearing that others couldn't hear him.

"That guy Ryan is the shield warrior of our team. If he is gone, I will have to take the lead, so we must rescue him this time no matter what!" said the human warrior with a laugh.

The human warrior Stander placed Roy outside a tent, let him lean against the tent pole, and found him a glass of water, which he poured into his stomach...

After drinking a glass of water, Roy felt his dry throat felt much better.

Probably because they heard that the Stander Demon Hunting Team had brought back a young priest from the wild, many residents in the camp came over, took a look at Roy, and then hurried away.

After seeing Roy's face, everyone left with a blank expression.

"Are the people here so enthusiastic? Will they take the initiative to come over and say hello when new people come to the camp?" Roy leaned against the tent and asked the soldier Stand curiously.

"hehe!"

The human warrior Stander couldn't help but burst into laughter twice, he laughed so hard that he was almost speechless.

The wood elf Evely walked out of the tent and looked at Roy deeply before explaining to him:
"They came to see you, not just to say hello to you. The purpose of their coming here to take a look at you is to confirm whether you are their enemy who had a grudge with them in the wild."

"If you are really their enemy, they will take advantage of your weakness and kill you together..."

The half-elf ranger Lorepage who was following behind also added a sentence at this time.

Roy was completely speechless.
