Don't call me evil god

Chapter 245 The Hunting Moon Arrives
Combined with his brother's declaration that he was going to expand his territory in the Dark Forest.

Bacon had a bold idea:

"Brother, is this big thing you're planning to do going to be successful?"

That's the Dark Forest!
Everyone is afraid of the dark forest, and ordinary people in Chim Town are terrified when they talk about it!
Although Bacon also knew that the successful development of territory did not mean that the territory could exist stably for a long time.

The annual monster red tide is a huge test.

So far.

All challengers who tried to gain a foothold in the Dark Forest, without exception, handed in a "failing" answer sheet.

But that's not what Bacon cared about.

Because he knew what his brother's starting conditions were!
When others expand their territory, they always bring hundreds of people, from professionals to craftsmen to ordinary people.

He would hire several mercenary groups to help clear out monsters near his territory and provide defense.

They spent a large sum of money and invited priests of the Glowing God to build a temporary chapel in the pioneering territory to obtain the blessing of the Glowing God and spread the gospel and provide shelter to the people.

Spend money like water.

Even in the initial stage of construction, the number of gold coins spent is in the thousands.

Not to mention that one must also consider the cohesion and ideological trends of the people.

Every time a mercenary group or professional suffers casualties in a battle with monsters, it can have a serious impact on the morale of the territory. Some mercenary groups will even break their contract and leave directly after losing a certain number of members.

Where is Bacon's brother, Pete?

Including himself, there are only 5 people involved in the so-called territory development, right?
I never asked my family for money, not even the living expenses that I sent to them every month through Caron United Savings while I was in Green Harbor!
The starting conditions were almost impoverished.

It is possible to build a territory and even spread rumors among adventurers and mercenaries, and the news can even reach places like Chim Town, which is some distance away from the border.

Bacon finds it outrageous just to think about it!

Corresponding to this outrageous thing, Bacon became more and more curious.

He didn't want to wait for his brother's promise that "when he came home in the future, he would take him into the Dark Forest to hunt monsters."

Since there is a place called "Qinnar Territory" in the Dark Forest.

It must be safe near civilized territory, right?
Otherwise, the news wouldn't have spread among the mercenaries and adventurers, right?

Then could he also follow the adventurers and go to that territory to take a look?

When he was young, he followed his brother and participated in the so-called "Monster Attack and Defense" war game under his brother's command.

Is there a chance to play it for real this time?
Maybe it's a more powerful version!

This is what Bacon really thought.

Compared to Petwin's plan of wandering around the outermost part of the Dark Forest and waiting for the mercenaries to bring the captured monsters for them to "fight".

Bacon's ideas are at least 10 times more radical!
He wanted to go deep into the dark forest like a real adventurer.

"I'm not worried about your plan..." Bacon raised his head and looked around the room, a little embarrassed, "My idea is, if it is possible, is there a chance... to go deeper into the Dark Forest?"

Pete Twain was stunned for a moment.

Then he was overjoyed.

He patted Bacon's shoulder excitedly:

"Hahahaha! You are worthy of being my best friend, Bacon. I knew I was right about you!"

"Of course! You're right! Of course!"

"You revealed the second half of the plan before I even had a chance to say it!"

"In the early days, we must be near the border, at the outermost edge of the forest to adapt to the situation and experience fighting with 0-level monsters."

"If the conditions are right, we should certainly be brave enough to venture deeper into the forest!"

"We have nine people, all of us professionals, and a ranger like you who is good at scouting. We are almost qualified to form a small-scale mercenary group."

"Once everyone is well coordinated, I think we can go into the forest and look for those lone Level 2 monsters."

"If we can capture a level 2 monster, that would be truly amazing!" A group of young masters and young ladies from noble families agreed on a plan and also prepared their "confessions" on how to deceive their elders in their families.

The others all agreed to go to Viscount Tustin's estate in Ceylon City to spend some time with Petunia;
Petunia said she wanted to go out and relax, and visit the towns around Ceylon with her friends.

Everyone is on the same page. As long as they can fool people for a month and make the plan a reality, then the matter will be considered a success.

"Go home, pack your things, hire a carriage, and meet up at the Ceylon 7rd Line Border Camp at the latest in 3 days, which is the end of the first week of the Hunting Month. If a coward doesn't show up by the time, we won't wait for him!"

……

at the same time.

Several equipment merchants in Ceylon City who once belonged to the Commercial Alliance were also secretly contacting carriages, preparing to rush to Ceylon's No. 3 Defense Line overnight.

It's clearly stated in the franchise letter.

Go find the contact person there, first come first served will get extra benefits.

Since you have made up your mind to surrender and join the other side, the sooner you do it, the more sincere you will appear!
……

In the territory of Xiwei.

After resting, the adventurers packed their luggage and checked their weapons and equipment again.

Although life here is comfortable and easy, it still costs money.

Their main source of income is to hunt monsters and obtain materials.

During the Hunting Month, it was equivalent to an extra reward from the King, giving them more rewards for hunting monsters.

Many adventurers will choose to kill more monsters in the hunting month that lasts throughout September, and even take the initiative to form a team to challenge those high-level dangerous monsters.

Greater danger also means greater reward.

If we can kill a few level 3 monsters, and if we're lucky, we'll have enough food and drink for the next six months.

And now there is a new territory in the Dark Forest, which means they have a place to rest and recuperate.

This year’s harvest may be better than previous years!
……

A magic scroll shop in Ceylon City.

The shop owner was counting the dates on the calendar with a frown on his face.

"The hunting month is almost here, why hasn't Yaan paid the money he owed for August yet?"

"I heard that he went to the Dark Forest to adventure and look for magical materials."

"Could he have been killed by an evil spirit in the dark forest?"

"Damn it! That bastard still owes the store 382 gold, 69 silver, and 31 bronze!"

"This money is enough to buy his life more than a dozen times!"

"God of Light, please protect him, please don't let anything happen to him!"

……

Dark crypt.

Pete, who had just led the team to finish a shallow area attack, suddenly sneezed for no reason.

"Strange? Why do I feel like someone is talking about me?"

Reina said sympathetically, "Maybe you've been working too hard lately, Mr. Pete."

"Go back and rest early."

"Tomorrow is September, the month of the hunt. The Dark Forest will probably be a lot busier."

"There should be more people coming to our territory."
