Chapter 37 - Hunter veteran Mick
Five days later.
In a sealed room in Lunt town, the steam was hot and smoggy.
Will’s face “color” solemnly picked up a ceramic pot with a dark green “color” “liquid” body, and poured the dark green “color” “liquid” body into a clean white “color” cloth bag.
Squeeze the bag firmly.
Put the dark green “color” and “liquid” flowing out from the gap of the bag into the glass tube container.
Will pressed the mouth of the glass tube container closer to his nose and didn’t smell anything.
Will put another drop of dissolved “liquid” into the mouth, and there was a tingling sensation in his tongue, but it was not very obvious, a bit like pepper.
“Finally succeeded.”
Shaking the “liquid” body in his hand, Will smiled “lu”.
When refining Kurohara “liquid” some time ago, there were no problems with the materials, procedures, and techniques, but no matter how hard Will tried, he could not produce a qualified “black liquor”.
After asking Rep, Will knew the reason.
the reason is simple.
The temperature is unstable!
Ordinary boilers have uneven temperature distribution, and no qualified black raw “liquid” can be produced at all.
Due to the poorly built stove in Albert Castle, Will came to the town of Lent.
Within five days of having a qualified stove, Will successfully refined a qualified black raw “liquid”.
Will walked out of the room.
Instructed the three servants waiting outside: “Open the window, ventilate for three hours, and then wash the room carefully with water. No one can be close to it during the period. Remember to wear mask gloves when cleaning.
Poisonous mist will appear when refining Kurohara “liquid”.
Even the knight feels uncomfortable when he breathes.
Will is also taking the black liquid “liquid”, which contains extremely concentrated toxins in his body, so he can stay in the poison mist.
Will returned to the room, changed his clothes, and took the tools he had prepared.
Riding a horse and walking towards the Red Moon Forest.
About half an hour later.
Will came to the edge of the Red Moon Forest. Two people sat in the shade of a willow tree by the river.
A person looks around forty years old, with messy hair, a blindfold in his left eye, and a coat of achievement.
The other person is about fifty years old, with a thin figure, dark skin, and sunken eyes.
“Uncle Rep, is this?” Will stepped forward.
“He was an experienced hunter I asked.” Rep said.
“This lord, my name is Mick, and I’m happy to serve the two.” Mick Orion salutes Will.
“Mick?”
Will and Rep are going next, but the four-armed ghost ape’s nest “hole”.
Knights may not be able to survive, a little Orion?
Mick saw Will’s mistrust.
Mick raised his chest and said to himself: “The two lords, I have followed my father into the Red Moon Forest since I was seven years old. Forty-one years now, on the familiarity with the Red Moon Forest, no one in the entire town of Lunt can match it. I.”
“Mick is what I found, it will be useful.” Rep said.
Now that Rep has spoken, Will is not good to say anything.
Will, Rep, and Mick entered the Red Moon Forest together.
Mick led the way in the front, Will walked in the middle, behind the Rep.
In the lush forest, the three people are like three black “color” dots, which slowly advance among the giant tree vines.
As the three went deeper.
Mick started to stop frequently, sometimes to make marks, sometimes to lie on the ground to listen to things, sometimes to put the feces on the ground into the mouth.
Rep seems to be very interested in Mick. On the way, he constantly chatted with Mick, and the two kept discussing the knowledge of adventure hunting.
Over the past three days, Will was listening to it and felt that he had benefited a lot.
Will can intuitively perceive that Rep’s experience skills are far above Mick.
Along the way, Rep and Mick actually talked to Will.
The purpose is to let Will understand the hunting adventure from shallow to deep.
“So this is the reason for Mick?”
Will moved.
…
this day.
In front of a swamp, Mick stopped.
At this point, malaria began to appear.
From a distance, the miasma became thicker and thicker, like a thick fog, covering the front.
“In front, it’s the deadwood swamp. After the deadwood swamp, it’s time to Half Moon Mountain. After taking you here, my task is over.” Mick looked at him dignifiedly.
“I’m afraid it’s not easy to cross the drywood swamp,” Rep said.
“Two masters, I advise you to stop here.” Mick had a good intention. “Withered wood swamp, it is too dangerous. The whole month fell into the city. There are fewer than ten hunters who can safely pass through the withered wood swamp.”
“Aren’t you one of those ten?” Rep took out a purse. “Here are twenty gold coins. If you are willing to take us through the dry wood swamp, these gold coins will be yours.”
Grunt.
Mick stared at the bag in Rep’s hands, his eyes greedy.
Mick raised his hand and put it down hard again.
“It’s not difficult for me to ride through the drywood swamp alone, but I want to bring two of them together.” Mick smiled and shook his head bitterly. “The two lords, I don’t hide from you, I really want your money, but whether it is For the sake of my own life, it is still two, I advise you to give up. “
“Withered wood swamp is so dangerous?” Will on the side asked.
“The danger of the deadwood swamp is dangerous, but there is still a way to pass through, but—” Mick’s tone suddenly became awesome. “I don’t know if the two masters have heard of ‘deep red but not half’?”
“Deep crimson?”
Rep looked at Will, who was also confused.
“In fact, it’s very simple, which means literally, go deep into the Red Moon Forest and never cross the Half Moon Mountain.” Mika explained.
auzw.com “Why is this?”
Even Will heard this for the first time.
Mika grinned and squeezed a few words between her yellow teeth, “Because everyone who went to Banyue Mountain died.”
“All dead?” Will was startled.
“No one survived.” At the end, Mika added another sentence, “There are a few knights among them.”
In Mick’s heart, the knight is already extremely powerful.
Even if Will and Rep are nobles, they have practiced breathing and become knights. They only go to Half Moon Mountain to find death.
But what Mick didn’t know was that Will and Rep weren’t as simple as the Cavaliers.
“We have to go to Half Moon Mountain, I don’t have that many gold coins with me.” Rep took out a dagger inlaid with gems. “If you are willing to take us through the dry wood swamp, this dagger belongs to you.”
Mick’s eyes straightened.
Mick took the dagger with trembling hands, and Mick’s eyes did not look at the gems inlaid on the dagger, but at the blade.
“Varian Steel?” Mick took a deep breath.
“Only the blade is Varian steel, but it is also worth hundreds of gold coins.” Rep said.
“Are you sure to give it to me?”
Mick held Varian Steel’s dagger tightly, with a look of expression.
“For us, a dagger is nothing,” Rep said.
“Okay, but I’ll only take you through the dry wood swamp, and you will go the rest of the way, is that okay?” Mick’s voice was firm.
“We are in a hurry and must pass through the deadwood swamp today.” Rep added.
Mick looked up and glanced at the sky.
“It’s about ten o’clock.”
The golden “color” sunlight scattered from the gap between the leaves to the ground, and turned into a light spot printed on Mick’s decisive face.
“Okay, it’s a word!” Mick seemed to have made a huge determination.
“The deal.”
Rep smiled and shook hands with Mick.
“Uncle Rep?”
Will looked at Rep puzzled, not understanding why Rep wanted to do it.
Bringing an hunter who does not even have a knight, the best hunting experience is just a burden.
Rep gave Will a meaningful look, without explanation.
Will, Rep and Mick set off again.
Mick is indeed one of the hunters who knows the Red Moon Forest best.
Along the way, Mick took Will with them to escape the dangers, avoiding the beasts.
If Mick didn’t lead the way, Will might have suffered more than a dozen attacks.
But if there is no Mick.
Will and Rep let go of their strength and moved forward without any worries. At noon, the two had already passed through the deadwood swamp.
And now, it’s five o’clock in the evening.
The deadwood swamp was only two-thirds away.
Mick pointed to a large quagmire ahead. “This is a swamp crocodile pond. The swamp crocodile’s habitat is two kilometers wide. As long as you cross this swamp, you can see Half Moon Mountain.”
“Is there no place to settle here?” Will asked.
“Did you see those trees?” Mick pointed to the sparse trees in the swamp. “There are many vines around each tree. We can climb through the vines and climb through the swamp.”
Will glanced at it, as it was.
Although the trees in the swamp crocodile pool are very sparse, there is only a dozen meters near and a few tens of meters away.
But all the trees are entangled by countless vines, like a giant net, covering the entire swamp crocodile pond.
Mick led the way and climbed a tree.
The bark of the tree is moist and rotten.
“Be careful, the swamp crocodile pond not only has crocodiles, but also condenses countless miasma. If a person falls, it will corrode and melt away at once,” Mick warned.
“I will talk about this later, is the snake caught in the hand, okay?” Will asked.
Numerous insects and birds inhabit these rotten giant trees.
Crawling all the way, all three of Will were crawling with bugs.
Although Mick said the bugs were not poisonous, the feeling of countless bugs crawling on the body made Will extremely sick.
“snake?”
Mick looked down and found that he had mistaken a snake for a vine and caught it.
It was a green snake with thick fingers, similar to a normal green snake.
Mick froze for a moment, and suddenly his face changed greatly.
“Green snake!”
Mick shook his body, and quickly threw the snake in his hand.
“Ah!”
Mick screamed, holding the hand bitten by the green snake and falling into the swamp, the whole body was submerged by the swamp.
“Mick!”
Will responded a step slower.
Will’s feet were hanging between the branches, his body was hanging down, his hands deep into the swamp, until his arms were all in the mud, he didn’t hold Mick’s hand.
Will pulled hard up.
I know that my hands are tight and I can’t pull them.
Will added a bit more force.
“Wow—”
A white and rosy human body was pulled out by Will at once.
Mick was covered in blood, and there were tiny “silk” whimpers in his mouth.
“Vomit vomit …”
Will retched immediately.
