Path of light

Chapter 216 217. Goathead

It is said that elves are the children of nature in the jungle and rarely kill animals in the jungle, but in fact this is only for the weak little beasts in the jungle.

When encountering second-level monsters such as blue ice deer, basilisk, and spiny-tailed crystal lion, the elves will not let them go.

The leather of the Spiny Tail Crystal Lion is naturally light brown, and the leathermaker only needs to apply a little acid on it to corrode a very beautiful dark brown pattern. Therefore, the Spiny Tail Crystal Lion leather has always been the favorite leather of young elves.

Elves don't like petrified lizard skin very much, because this kind of leather is too thick. If you want to make light leather armor, you have to layer the leather, which is very troublesome.

The blue ice deer leather is the Warcraft leather that many elf girls prefer.

The leather boots made of it have the natural blue color of ice flowers. Even when mana is injected into the leather boots, the leather boots will be surrounded by crystal snowflakes when walking.

Tinaisi Village is built on a hillside in a forest. Many tree houses are hidden in the tops of dense trees. It is difficult for outsiders to find this small village in the forest without looking carefully.

Guide Margery said that two blue ice deer appeared near the village a while ago. Miss Scarlett immediately wanted to try her luck in the cold pool, and others were also looking forward to it.

Under the leadership of the guide Margery, everyone left the village of Tinais along a path. There were not many weeds in the woodland here, and the road was not too difficult to walk.

The Partington plane is full of jungles, and the woods are also very humid, so green moss grows everywhere, making it very slippery everywhere.

A little squirrel with a fluffy tail jumped from the top of an oak tree to another tree. Its movements were extremely flexible.

There are a lot of grouse in the woods. If you walk around, you will see these grouse flying up and down. They can't fly very far, and they will burrow into the trees at most three to five hundred meters.

Roy thought that if he could catch one, even if he could make a fire to roast it and eat it, his mouth would water just thinking about it.

It's a pity that the elves don't eat these animals and birds, so Roy can only give up these plans temporarily...

Guide Margery kept introducing the special products in the forest along the way. A kind of elementary magic herb - silver leaf grass - grows in this forest. The elves in Tinais Village mainly collect silver leaf grass in the mountains and fields around the village. Then sold to caravans.

Along the way, everyone also saw a few silver-leaf grasses. However, these silver-leaf grasses have been collected by the elves, and only a few rhizomes are left. However, some buds have sprouted on the rhizomes. I want to wait for these silver leaves. It will take at least a few months for the grass to mature.

Silverleaf grass is very easy to identify because one of its leaves is light silver. It is said that this magical herb has a wide range of uses.

Instructor Nora did not intend to collect these magical herbs that have not yet grown. This time, she just wanted Roy, Sabrina and Miss Christine to get to know each other. Maybe you have seen the dried herbs in the herbal store. of silverleaf grass, but everyone also needs to know what they look like in the woods.

The guide Margery even introduced how to collect this kind of silver-leaf grass. Just use a knife to cut off the upper part and leave some rhizomes. It won't take long for the silver-leaf grass to grow back.

In addition to some elementary magic herbs, there are also many berries in the mountains and fields. Some are light red, some are dark purple, some are slightly poisonous and will cause stomachache if eaten too much, and some are sour and astringent, which is very unpleasant. Unpalatable.

As we walked in the mountains and forests, our guide Margery was a very competent botany teacher, constantly introducing various plants in the woods to us.

It is these berries and berries that raise the little beasts in the forest.

Guide Margery also found a wild pear tree. He climbed to the tree in a few clicks and picked a few pears from the tree. Although they were not very sweet, they were quite juicy and very thirst-quenching.

After climbing over a hillside that was not too high, the village of Tinais immediately disappeared from everyone's sight.

Not far away, there was white mist, which looked like a fairyland. Guide Margery pointed to that place and said to everyone:

"That's the Cold Pond. Because the water there is freezing cold all year round, and it's relatively muggy in the forest, so it's covered in mist all year round. It's the same in the whole forest. As long as you walk in, you'll be covered in it in a short time. dew."

While talking, everyone has reached the edge of the white mist.

The mist also had a bit of chill. Roy touched a bit of white mist with his arm, and the mist immediately adhered to his clothes, causing wet marks.

The trees wrapped in white mist were also wet, and many leaves were dripping water. This forest was the kind of forest where water droplets kept falling, and the soft moss underfoot was also wet.

Everyone walked into the woods shrouded in white mist. Because of the white mist, they couldn't see very far in the woods.

They could only follow one by one. Roy, Sabrina and Miss Christine were sandwiched by the instructors, with Guide Margery walking at the front.

Guide Margery was not very familiar with this place. After searching for a long time, he saw a cold pool on the edge of a boulder. The lingering white mist was rising and spreading from the cold pool.

Everyone came to the edge of the cold pool. Due to the fog, the visibility would not exceed five meters, so even if the blue ice deer appeared here, it would be difficult for everyone to spot it.

The water in the pool was very clear. Instructor Nora squatted by the cold pool and put her hand into the pool. It was probably because the water was too cold, so she immediately retracted her hand.

"This pool of water is so cold!" Instructor Nora said.

Roy saw that some ice ballast had even condensed in the pool water close to the side of the boulder. Everyone who walked here seemed to have a layer of fine water droplets condensed on the outside of the leather armor. As long as it was touched, the leather armor would immediately melt. Get wet.

Guide Margery said to everyone:

"There are at least seven or eight pools like this in this forest. This is because the existence of these cold pools makes the temperature of the forest much lower than the surroundings, which is why the white mist fills the air. The villagers of Tinais Village It was here that I saw the two blue ice deer, but they turned around and hid in the white mist, making it impossible to catch up."

Instructor Eleanor walked around the cold pool but found nothing.

"Would you like to search separately?" Scarlett Magician said unwillingly. She had always wanted to have a pair of blue ice deer leather boots.

Blue Ice Deer is an ice-based monster. Miss Scarlett is good at ice magic, so a pair of leather shoes like this will be of great help to her...

"Scarlett, Christine, Sabrina and I were in a group, Eleanor, Virgil, Gru and Roy were in a group. We walked around in the woods separately and we will meet up here later. If We can’t find this place, so everyone walks out of this misty jungle and waits right where we just entered the misty jungle, do you understand?”

"Understood!" everyone said.

"What about me, which group should I follow?" asked the guide Margery.

"Follow us." Instructor Nora did not give in and asked the guide to follow them.

There are four people in Roy's group. Instructor Vergil, Instructor Gru and Roy are all male elves. Only Instructor Eleanor is a female elf, but Instructor Eleanor serves as the captain of their team.

The two teams parted ways at this cold pool. One team groped towards the east side, while Roy's team groped towards the west side.

The forest was filled with white mist, and the chance of finding a blue ice deer was not very high. However, the elves from Tinais Village probably rarely came to this forest area, so Instructor Eleanor found several in succession in the misty jungle. The mature Ningshen grass and kudzu root brought some unexpected surprises to this trip.

"They say that the Partington plane produces magic herbs, and it seems true!" Instructor Eleanor said happily.

Instructor Gru wanted to climb up a big tree, but unfortunately the trunk of the tree was too slippery, and he almost fell off the tree...

But even if he stood in the tree, he couldn't see very far.

Instructor Eleanor took her hand away from a tree and said to everyone: "Except for the vast white fog, I can't find any information."

The team walked around in this misty jungle for a long time. Feeling that time was almost up, they were ready to return to the edge of the cold pool to rendezvous. After searching for a long time, they found the cold pool, but Instructor Nora and his group were still there. Didn't come back.

Instructor Eleanor saw that a bush beside the cold pool was actually full of a kind of red berry, so she suggested to everyone:

"Or we might as well just be gathering some berries."

Instructor Gru wiped his long wet hair and said impatiently:

"We'd better wait for them outside Baiwu, it's cold and damp here!"

Instructor Eleanor looked at Virgil and Roy and asked them, "What are your plans? Wait here or outside the misty jungle?"

Roy is a little transparent, so he can't have any opinions, but it would actually be nice if he could collect some berries, since he was already wet anyway.

"Then just wait outside. You can also light a bonfire to dry off the moisture on your body..."

Instructor Virgil smiled and suggested.

Instructor Eleanor didn't say anything, and just returned along the original path, and soon walked out of the misty jungle. This happened to be the entrance to the misty jungle where the adventure group had just entered.

Here you can see the rolling fog that seems to swallow everything...

After walking out of the fog, even breathing became much easier.

The four members of the team were waiting for Instructor Nora and his team. As expected, Instructor Virgil built a bonfire in the forest, and everyone gathered around the bonfire to dry their clothes.

Instructor Gru was the first to stand up. He grabbed the combat short bow in one hand, arched his body slightly, and jumped to a big tree with a slight movement.

It was obvious that the three instructors had cooperated tacitly for a long time. Instructors Eleanor and Vergil also stood up immediately. Instructor Vergil poured a pot of water on the bonfire that had just risen, extinguishing the bonfire in an instant. A lot of water vapor came out of the campfire...

Instructor Eleanor leaned behind a tree, looking up at Instructor Gru on the tree.

Instructor Gru made a gesture to Instructor Eleanor, the direction was not the misty jungle.

Roy guessed that there must be something going on, and his heartbeat quickened instantly. His follower, instructor Virgil, hid behind another tree.

Roy poked his head out a little, and right where the instructors' eyes met, several sheep-headed monsters appeared. They were wearing extremely simple leather armor, and there were thorns hanging from the belts around their waists. A big wooden stick, two sheep-headed monsters worked together to lift a log, with a wild boar with several arrows stuck on it, and blood dripping from the wild boar's body...

Roy was startled, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and found that they indeed had a furry sheep face, with two curved horns on their heads. Their bodies seemed very strong, and their hands looked like elves. They are the same, but their feet are still hooves, making a thumping sound when walking.

Instructor Virgil was right next to Roy, making a silent gesture to him.

There are six sheep-headed monsters in this group, only the two in front are carrying wild boars, and the four in the back are looking around from time to time...

Instructor Gru on the tree had already opened his bow and aimed at the sheep-headed monster at the front. When they got close, he decisively shot an arrow. The arrow carried a trace of the power of the wind element and passed through the air with precision. It hit the eye socket of the sheep-headed monster at the front, and the arrow penetrated the skull through the eye.

The goat-headed monster immediately fell on its back, and a stream of blood spurted out from its eye socket.

The log on his shoulders also fell aside, and the wild boar tied to it fell to the ground.

The sudden change made the other sheep-headed monsters feel a little stupid. The other sheep-headed monsters looked in the direction of the arrow. Almost at the same time, they took off the big wooden sticks from their waists, held them in their hands, and hid towards Instructor Gru. The place where he pounced.

Instructor Gru also showed his confidence by shooting one arrow, and immediately shot three arrows in a row. However, this time the goat-headed monsters were on guard, and the three arrows failed to hit their vital points.

The arrows hit the goat-headed monsters, and they actually howled...

Instructors Eleanor and Virgil pulled out their swords, jumped out from behind the big tree, and got entangled with the five sheep-headed monsters.

Roy, also holding a scepter and shield, followed the instructor and joined the battle.

Roy stood in front of a sheep-headed monster, with three arrows stuck in his shoulders and chest, but this did not affect his fighting at all...

He saw Roy rushing over, swung the big wooden stick in his hand, and hit him hard.

Roy couldn't avoid it for a while, so he directly raised his shield to meet him.

With a "dang" sound, huge power was transmitted to Roy's arm through the shield. Although he was blessed by various states of the magic pattern structure, Roy still felt a numbness in his arm.

This goat-headed monster is really powerful.

The furry face of the goat-headed monster was very close. Roy saw that his eyes were red and there was a fierce smile on his face. It looked as weird as possible...

He knocked Roy back two steps with a stick, and blood spurted out from the arrow wound on the goat-headed monster.

Roy readjusted his body and found that the left arm holding the shield was completely numb. The goat-headed monster rushed up again. Roy could only grit his teeth and wave the scepter in his hand to parry the big wooden club that fell down...
