The Troublesome Hero Among the Heroes

On a cliff more than two hundred meters high, a waterfall with a width of ten meters falls from the top of the mountain and falls into the lake under the cliff, like ten thousand horses galloping.

Several streams flowed out of the lake all around, but I did not see a small river large enough. It is estimated that there is an underground river at the bottom of the lake.

On both sides of the stream is a huge forest full of various Fruit Trees. Many of the branches of Fruit Trees are covered with fruits that ripen in summer.

Ten young men and women from eight to ten years old stood at the upper wind of the Fruit Tree forest and threw a few bundles of herbs into the smoke-producing haystack that had just been lit.

The stench produced by the burning of herbs immediately filled the Fruit Tree forest with heavy smoke. The monkeys who stayed overnight in the Fruit Tree forest last night were smoked and fled, and Charles was also smoked. I had to rush out of the tent and immediately gave birth to wind wings and flew high.

After the negotiations between Hasselblad and Juan that night, Juan agreed that the giant dragons would come and transport Fafner's body, including the blood-soaked soil on the ground.

The garden became muddy ground, but the giant dragons lost money.

After Fafner's body was transported away, Hasselblad handed over to Juan a torn cotton robe and a wooden magic wand soaked in dragon blood.

No one knew the robe, but everyone including Juan recognized that the magic wand was the property of Anthony's teacher Santos.

Charles don’t care about the next thing. He left the city of Matrese without looking back after telling the people about the incident on the second day. He didn’t want to do it. Into the subsequent political struggle between Juan and Anthony.

But Juan gave the dragon bloodfiend rod to Charles before Charles left, saying that it was the spoils of war he deserved.

The magic wand itself is a fine product. It can be regarded as a blue weapon. After being soaked in dragon blood, it has reached the level of a purple weapon.

But Charles wants to go to the Temple of Souls and Dreams next, and ask the Pope to take the initiative to seal Fafner's Soul Power into this magic wand, so that it can become an orange weapon.

He doesn't want the loot grabbed by the bandits, but the bandits themselves can still play a role.

Now Charles’s goal is the destination of Pitlán’s caravan, and he has to go over and play with everyone.

At this time, Charles had not left the kingdom of Messeta. Last night, he found a place with mountains, rivers and fruits to rest in a place with no shop in front of the village and no shop, but he didn’t Expect was awakened by those children early in the morning.

Charles flew to the group of children, and to be honest, he was not much older than them.

Those children find that they seem to have gotten into trouble and provoke a terrible person, and suddenly become lose one's head out of fear.

At this time, a ten-year-old male child who seemed to be the leader walked up to Charles, with his left hand bent flat on his chest, and bowed to him a standard adventurer's salute.

He said: "We have inadvertently offended your Excellency. We apologize."

This male child is different from other children. He is holding a short bow and arrows. The pot was placed in a back basket, with a hatchet tied behind his waist.

Charles, an uncle in his heart, shouldn't be angry about it.

These children know at a glance that they are little adventurers who come to gather fruits. Selling these fruits to the Adventurer’s Union is their only income.

Little adventurers whose strength in the wild is equal to sending vegetables, naturally need some means to drive away dangerous devil beasts and animals, and they release this wail like ghosts and howl like wolves before work. Commonly used means.

Charles waved his hand and said, "It's okay, don't blame you."

"Who taught you the formula for expelling beast smoke? The general formula is not so powerful. "

The little adventurer said: "Reporting back to Your Excellency, this was taught to us by an elf lady named Halkara who passed by our town a few years ago."

Charles froze for a moment. He didn't expect to hear his Elvish teacher's name here, but he didn't know where the "mountain elf" was hiding now.

He asked: "Where do you live, is it far from here?"

The little adventurer replied: "Our city of Granada is in the northwest. , I’m over a mountain."

Charles thought for a while, waved to him and said, "You go to your business, don’t worry about me."

Those The little adventurers saw that Charles did not pursue them, and they were all sighed in relief.

Not long after, two older boys dig out the fire with a shovel and extinguished the fire. After the foul smoke was blown away by the wind, they walked into the Fruit Tree carrying bamboo baskets on their backs. Forest.

Charles packed his tent and went to the pool under the waterfall to start fishing.

The fish here is not big, with three fingers wide, it looks almost like a croaker, without small bones, it is good for soup and roasting.

The most important thing is that this guy has been lost in the mountains for two days, and now he needs someone to take him to a nearby human settlement.

You can chase the lost when chasing a wild boar. This belongs to his dark history.

In the Fruit Tree forest behind him, the shouts of the children when they were picking fruit came from time to time. They are familiar with this forest and know which Fruit Tree fruits are just in time for picking.

Charles feels that this piece of Fruit Tree forest is likely to be planted deliberately, because some Fruit Trees need a special environment to grow healthily, and some fruits also need some Insects that are not friendly to humans. Or birds to pollinate.

These children pick fruits very quickly, and fill their baskets with fruits at noon.

At this time they began to take out the dry food and the kettle for lunch, planning to go back after eating.

Charles is stringing the fish he caught with a thin cane, and the string is like a bunch of grapes.

Going out to save energy, he plans to use these fish for dinner.

He glanced at the young men and women who were eating in the shade of the vicinity, and found that they were eating different things. Some people ate rice crackers, while others ate sweet potatoes. Some people use skin sacs for water, and some use bamboo tubes.

It can be seen from this that those older teenagers are more financially affluent. They eat rice crackers and fill water with skins. Those young men and women can only eat roots and use bamboo tubes. Fill the water.

Charles soon discovered the problem, and he asked those people: "Are you missing one person?"

He didn't see the child who was talking to him before. .

The children looked at each other, and then a girl cautiously said to Charles: "Huntington went to find herbs nearby."

Look at the girl and the others. The expression on his face was very calm. Obviously, it was not the first time that the child named Huntington did such a thing. Not being taken away by the wild beast, Charles was relieved.

Not long after, the boy named Huntington came back. Charles saw a pheasant and a hare hanging from his waist, and the basket behind him was also full of fruit. , Some herbs can be seen on the fruit.

The girl who had just replied to Charles stood up. She walked quickly to the front and back of Huntington and wiped the sweat off Huntington’s face with her sleeves, and then filled it with water. Handed the bamboo tube to Huntington.

The people around are no strangers to this scene. They are chatting, and a few people are even discussing whether they want to rent a donkey to get more fruit tomorrow.

Now it’s getting hotter and hotter, the juice business in the city is booming, and the demand for fruits is also starting to increase.

After the simple lunch, Charles followed these little adventurers back to the nearby city.

He claimed to be an adventurer who went out hunting, but unfortunately he got nothing from the hunt this time.
