The Dean Has Arrived

The sound of the old wheels constantly spinning, the brisk click of the hog-tooth's hooves on the gravel, and the occasional chirping of birds harmonize with the revival of all things in the forest in spring and the green environment. Gives a drowsy feeling like a lullaby.

Alisa and Tio naturally responded to this feeling. Like squirrels hiding in tree holes in winter to warm each other, their small bodies curled up unconsciously, breathing peacefully and evenly, and seemed to be sleeping soundly.

Xi Wei sat on the back of the scooter boredly, enjoying the rustling sound of the leaves rubbing against each other due to the breeze and the breeze full of the fragrance of green grass. The sun shone through the sparse canopy, casting spots of light on his body Neither hot nor cold, warm and comfortable.

Although the effect of meditation may be very good now, but this is the edge of the forest anyway. In order to prevent all kinds of emergencies, Xi Wei, let alone meditation, even bathes in a place full of negative ions like two little lolitas. In the air of the forest, a sweet sleep is just a luxury.

After resting in a small town for one night, according to Old John, as long as you pass through this forest, you should be able to reach Horadur today.

"But is it really okay? There should be some monsters inhabiting this forest, right?" The bored Xi Wei yawned and looked around, but found nothing unusual.

"Master, you don't know anything. This time of spring is actually the safest time on the road." Old John seemed to be bored because there was no one to talk to. He immediately started to think carefully when he heard Xi Wei's question. explain it to him.

As soon as spring arrives, monsters who have been hungry all winter will come out to hunt one after another, and that is also one of the most dangerous times.

"However, during that period, some large prey that were rare for several years could also be hunted, so many hunters who are confident in themselves will aim at that time to enter the forest."

And now it is the end of spring, as long as the spring harvest is over, it will immediately enter the prosperous summer. During this period of time, almost all monsters have already satisfied their appetites, as the saying goes, full and warm. Naturally, the beasts who had eaten and drank enough were no exception, and they began to estrus one after another, making preparations for the reproduction of the next generation.

"In this period, as long as you don't provoke those monsters, almost nothing will happen." Old John vowed.

As an experienced tumbleweed, Old John was very sure of his experience... until Xi Wei and the others encountered a caravan that was wiped out.

The cart of the caravan was still blocking the middle of the road, and the cargo boxes on it were scattered all over the floor. In addition, there was a lot of blood scattered around the cart, dyeing the soil made of fallen leaves and various humus red, It looks like it has been a very fierce battle.

Xi Wei can tell from the familiar traces left on the soft soil that the caravan was attacked by wolves. Unfortunately, he is not an animal trainer after all, so he cannot tell whether it is a wolf or a dinosaur. wolf species.

There was not a single corpse on the battlefield. It seemed that after the battle, the corpses of both humans and wild wolves were transported away by the wolves and used as rations.

After surveying the battlefield, Xi Wei glanced at the dumbfounded old John.

Every time this old man swears and says something, what happens in reality is often the opposite of what he said... Could this be the legendary hidden attribute lucky E?

Old John, who finally came back to his senses, walked tremblingly to a box, and opened it carefully. A lot of black particles the size of rice grains rolled out of it. The old man picked up a handful, put it under his nose and smelled it, and then said in surprise: "Master, master, this caravan is transporting spices!"

"Oh? It's actually spices."

Xi Wei raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and opened several other boxes with great interest, which were indeed full of various spices.

The spices of this world are not as expensive as gold in the medieval West, but they are definitely not cheap. At least Xi Wei has traveled so far, and there will never be more than one hand in the food that has been spiced.

Although Xi Wei was not interested in anything more expensive than gold, it would be good to have a little more taste in his mouth that was about to fade out.

So he covered the box, brushed the largest box with one hand, and planned to put it into his bronze storage box—the twenty grids of the storage box have not been filled yet, so it’s not so much boxes of things.

However, for some reason, the ability of the storage box did not take effect, and the box was still under his hands untouched.

"Strange..." Xi Wei frowned, ignoring Old John's expression of nervousness as he thought he, a mage, had discovered some shocking secret, walked around the box, and tried again reluctantly, but still Failed.

Then Xi Wei activated his ability on another box that was only slightly smaller than this one, but this time he easily put that box into the storage space.

Then Xi Wei tried several other boxes of spices, but they could all be put into the storage box.

It doesn't seem to be a problem with the bronze storage box.

So Xi Wei once again carefully looked at the spice box that was as high as his chest and couldn't be put into the storage box. This time, he finally saw something.

He knocked on the lower part of the box, but the box that was supposed to be full of spices actually made a muffled sound of 'dong dong', clearly showing that there was a hole inside.

Old John looked at the big box in surprise. If Xi Wei hadn't discovered it, he wouldn't have been able to tell from the outside that it was actually empty inside. Even if he just opened it, it looked like it was full of spices...

Although this thing must have mechanisms and the like, Xi Wei didn't bother to look for that kind of thing, so he simply activated the mage's hand to crack the wooden wall on one side of the box, and broke it off!

Immediately afterwards, he and Old John saw a fat and short body rolling out of the box together with many spices.

That body ignored the tears that were stimulated by the spices—or even without the stimulation of the spices, this guy would have been scared to tears—he fell down on the ground and shivered, speaking in a substandard Humen language ( Terran lingua franca) kept saying: "I'm sorry, please spare me! Please spare my life!"

No wonder it doesn't fit in the storage box. Xi Wei looked at the fat body that was shaking at an extremely fast frequency, and realized in his heart: the bronze storage box that cannot store living things naturally cannot fit a goblin...

Uh, wait.

"Goblin?!"
