After returning from the Warhammer world, the soldier picked up his shield and spear again.

After walking about ten or twenty meters, the burning smell became stronger and stronger.

Kale's figure was still clearly visible behind him.

As Mia walked past a big tree, she found the culprit of the burnt smell on the other side of the trunk.

A space was cleared under the tree, with a bonfire in the middle. A piece of remains that looked like some kind of canine animal fell into the fire and had completely turned into charcoal.

The fire had long been out.

In the open space around the fire, there were many wolf corpses lying in a mess.

"Wilden, there." Mia pointed to a clump of bushes.

There was a pair of feet in that room, a pair of feet wearing iron boots exactly like Wilden's, sticking out from the bushes.

Wilden walked forward very seriously, bent down, grabbed the legs, and then dragged an unconscious King's Army soldier out of the bushes.

He knelt down beside the soldier, who was wearing the same uniform as himself, and turned the body over.

The damage to the body is severe.

Unlike the zombie nobles killed in the Study Cave, this Greg soldier was covered in blood.

But the blood was not bright red, but dark red.

His face had been eaten beyond recognition by animals and was a bloody mess. The damaged part of the armor on his chest and the white ribs underneath also had signs of being bitten.

"Is it a wolf?" Mia asked with a frown.

"No," Wilden answered. "Something besides the wolf. A wolf can't bite through the armor."

Wilden lifted the damaged armor on the soldier's chest and showed it to Mia.

It was a straight and terrifying gap.

Wilden pressed the soldier's chest again.

"All the ribs are broken, and the fractures are in the same direction as the fractures on the armor."

There was no way a wolf could have inflicted such a wound.

Only some extremely heavy weapon could have caused a soldier of the King's Army to be in such a miserable state.

Wilden looked up again.

Walk towards the bushes.

Mia followed the boss without saying a word.

"There were other soldiers here." Wilden looked around and found some soldiers' luggage piled on the open ground.

In addition, there were traces of heavy objects being dragged on the ground.

Wilden went on to say, "The soldiers were dragged away after being subdued, either by the wolves or by the creature that was traveling with the wolves. But wild animals would not easily allow themselves to be injured, and would not take the huge risk of attacking fully armed soldiers when there was plenty of food."

Mia remembered seeing the deer on the road earlier.

For carnivores, this forest has no shortage of food.

"You mean those wolves have owners?"

Wilden nodded.

Mia was also thoughtful.

For some reason, the wolves and that thing left behind a person, who was discovered by her and dragged out by Wilden.

If I left in a hurry because of their approach...

wrong.

Why would a group of a blind girl, a merchant, a donkey, and a soldier flee when multiple soldiers were attacking?

Mia swallowed her saliva and looked at the unrecognizable Greg soldier: "Will he survive?"

"Yes." Wilden nodded: "But it will probably take a long time. These wounds will take at least two or three days to heal. As for those who were dragged away..."

If the wolves dragged the soldiers away for food.

Then there would probably be no chance of survival.

Mia understood and didn't ask any further questions.

By the way, are there really animals that eat dried golden tree people? Is the taste different from jerky?

"I don't know where they are going." Wilden looked at the soldier, "But if it were me, I would march without stopping for a moment."

"But it's normal to feel tired, right?" Mia whispered.

Wilden nodded helplessly.

Not everyone is like him, accustomed to the pain that immortality would bring.

These people may be young immortals.

But Mia was right, it was normal to feel tired. As long as we were still living in this world where we could not die, it was impossible to ignore these feelings. Over the long years, we would either become one of the few people who returned to the tree, or we would not be able to bear the curse of eternal life and fall into madness.

He had no reason to blame the soldiers for stopping to rest.

The only thing that can be blamed is that they let their guard down too much and were wiped out by the enemy.

"Be careful on the road ahead." Wilden stood up.

Neither the victim nor the perpetrator left many clues.

What they knew now was that there was something hiding in the forest, along with the wolves.

"Hmm..." Mia looked at the soldier lying on the ground, hesitated for a moment and said, "Will he be dragged away by wolves if we just leave him there?"

"Probably," said Wilden.

"Then help me?" Mia turned to look at him.

"How to do it?"

"Do this..."

-

With the help of Wilden, the poor Greg soldier was put on the tree by the two of them.

It was about four or five meters above the ground, stuck in the middle of a tree branch.

If wolves can't climb trees, this place should be safe.

If, as Wilden says, it will take many days for the soldier to come back to life, then there is no need to worry.

If she had that much time, Mia would have probably run to the Storm Level and then headed south to find Teacher Se Lian.

After doing all this, the two went back and found Kale who was still waiting there, and explained the situation to him.

"We'd better leave quickly."

Kale led Amiya, and as the three of them walked past the camp, the donkey anxiously pulled more reins from the merchant's hand.

The smell of the wolf was pungent to it.

Over the next half day, the three of them quickened their pace.

Of course, it has little to do with Mia, she has been riding a donkey.

When you realize that danger is nearby, everything you see around you feels like it's eyeing you.

The good mood I had when I first entered the forest in the morning was completely gone.

When the sky is about to complete another cycle and turn from day to night, the light in the forest disappears even earlier.

Under the cover of the tree canopy, the forest at the same time was darker than the plains in the previous few days.

"Find a place to camp."

Kale and Mia couldn't travel all night. If they forced themselves to travel while they were nervous and extremely tired, all kinds of accidents might happen in the dim light.

For example, when you look back, the person on the donkey is missing, but the person leading the donkey is unaware of it.

Then he looked back again and found that both of them were lost and only the donkey was left.

Wilden chose a huge, half-buried ruin as a backdrop, and the three of them lit a bonfire in the shadow of the ruins.

"Have you ever wondered where this kind of ruins came from?"

Mia suddenly asked Wilden.

“Sometimes they fall from the sky,” Wilden replied. “But no one knows why they fall from the sky.”

Kale took Mia and Wilden to collect all the fallen leaves around them, and formed a circle of fallen leaves as high as their feet around the camp.

Kale seemed to have some experience in dealing with such situations.

"If something gets close, the falling leaves will make a sound. And Amiya has always been very sensitive."

"The bonfire must be kept lit at night."

"I'll keep an eye on that," Wilden said.

They hurried to collect a lot of dry firewood before the forest fell into complete darkness.

Wilden put it within easy reach.

After doing all this, night finally arrived.

The dark forest seemed like a huge black net, shrouding the three people in insurmountable darkness.

The trees stretched out in all directions, closely connected with the surrounding trees, forming a heavy barrier. No one knew what was hidden inside.

Mia couldn't sleep at all.

The imagination of the enemy actually outweighs the fear of it.

Since traveling through time, she has become much more confident than before.

She believed that anything that dared to attack could be repelled by her and her companions.

Just like what happened in the deserted village the day before yesterday.

This emotion lingered with her until the second half of the night.

She kept her eyes closed and rested, trying to take a break but not daring to slack off at all.

Until a distant wolf howl was heard in the wind.

Chapter 25. The Orcs of Fam Azra

At first, the first wolf let out a low howl, and its voice echoed in the dense forest, gloomy and terrifying.

After a few seconds, the wolf's voice became higher, and a second wolf joined in, followed by more high-pitched and sharp howls one after another.

There was obviously a wolf pack with them.

Mia sat up, and Wilden and Kale also looked at the dark forest around them.

Coming?

Mia heard a sentence in her previous life.

When a gun appears in the first scene of a drama, someone must have fired the gun.

So, since we saw traces of wolves in the morning, we will definitely be attacked by wolves at night.

The beasts were still hiding in the darkness, but Mia was already eager to take action.

She suddenly remembered an important item that she had not used since she obtained it.

The spirit-calling bell.

And the ashes of stray wolves.

The spirit-calling bell and ashes were previously lent to Kale, but Kale did not use them.

It was precisely because it was loaned to Kale that Mia was unable to experience it when she was in Noon City.

Now is the opportunity.

"Wait a minute." She took out the spirit-calling bell: "I want to try this."
