Chapter 1039: Howling Forest

After lunch, the troops left. `Alan got on his horse and felt something in his heart. Looking up towards the upper floor of the hotel, he smiled and waved at the figure standing by the window. Then with a gesture, the team set off.

Lucy, who was standing by the window, sighed softly. She knew that Allen wanted to protect herself. But in the end, Allen was still worried that her strength was not enough to deal with the situation in the Howling Forest. After all, she is still at the original level, while Regis and Adele are already far ahead of her. Lucy looked at herself in the mirror shaking her head and smiling wryly, when did she become Alan's burden.

Observing the source force in the body silently, the secret method of condensing liquid inherited from his father Orfascius, now only condenses one-third of the source force into a liquid state. There is still a long time to condense all the source power, release the Duanli lock and soar into the sky. If it weren't for Alan's journey to the north, Lucy really wanted to unlock the power lock just like this and let Yuanli rush to level 20. At least by becoming an awakener, she won't become a burden to Allen.

She tried her best to restrain her urge to unlock it, the journey is not over yet, who can tell whether there will be more dangerous enemies during the journey. Lucy knew very well that it was not a good time to unlock it, and she needed to be patient.

"It's just this feeling, it's hard." `" she murmured.

There was a knock on the door, and Guna came in and brought a drink: "This is made with sour plums, it can appetize and refresh you."

Lucy smiled and said, "You came just in time, I need this kind of thing." She took the baby and drank it down.

The team left the hotel, led by a soldier of the Bear Armor Army, and circled the edge of the city. A cemetery gradually appeared in Allen's sight. It was the large cemetery in Moser, and the tombstones on the slope-shaped cemetery extended upward one by one. Looking around, there are tens of thousands of stone tablets in the cemetery. The team passed the large cemetery along the road. The black iron fence of the cemetery was covered with dark green vines, and the gate was locked tightly. Behind the door, several grave guards watched the passing team silently, without any expression, as lifeless as a walking dead.

This gloomy cemetery occupies a very large area, and the team took a lot of time to completely bypass the cemetery.

Behind the cemetery is the west gate of Moser. The guards at the gate have already received the news, and they are not surprised at the arrival of this team. The team stopped in front of the gate, and the defenders opened the gate, and the soldier who led the team said to Allen: "My lord, I can only take you here. Go out of the gate and go west. It won't be long before you You can see the edge of the Howling Forest. `The lake where the Queen of Dread is located is located deep in the forest, I am afraid you will not be able to see it until noon the next day. Please be careful, the danger of the Howling Forest is not only from the Queen of Dread, And other creatures at its mercy."

Allen nodded, and the city gate was fully opened at this time. He raised his hand and grabbed the horse's belly first. The war horse neighed and rushed out. Behind him, Laura lined up with five Mosasaurus knights,

More warriors followed on horseback. The team quickly drove out of the city gate and galloped across a monotonous plain. Sure enough, as the soldier said, it didn't take long for Allen to see a forest line.

It was the edge of the Howling Woods.

The treeline of the Howling Woods ranges from narrow to wide, gradually spreading towards the west. The forest is located in the middle of the two mountains. The ancient trees in the forest are towering, with lush leaves and branches. These ancient trees have dark leaves. From a distance, the Howling Forest has a depressing atmosphere.

The team passed through the plain and entered the forest, as if entering another world. Allen looked around, the sunlight in the forest was dim, and it fell to the ground through the leaf gaps, forming only large patches of light. There are no roads in the forest, but fortunately the ground is fairly flat. The team can advance quickly even if they spread out a little, but after half an hour, the terrain becomes more and more complicated. Those undulating natural rocks, and the ubiquitous bushes make it difficult for horses to pass. What's more, the distance between trees is also shrinking, which makes the space for walking through the forest limited.

Allen had to order the team to stop, and found a relatively open place to place the horses, leaving two soldiers to look after the horses, while the others followed him into the forest on foot.

From time to time on the way, you will see some overturned wooden houses, which are buried by bushes or integrated with an old tree. Allen even picked up a battle flag of the Bear Armored Army. It seems that the Bear Armored Army once built some outposts and other buildings in the forest, but it seems that this measure was not successful, and I don't know what caused it.

Going a kilometer or so deeper, you will no longer see traces of human activities. The forest became more and more eerie and quiet. It was difficult for Allen to even see birds and beasts. The whole forest seemed to be full of hostility to creatures. In the tree holes of those dead trees, behind the shadows of rocks covered with green moss, and in the dense bushes, there is a chilly atmosphere.

In the evening, Allen found a low slope used as a temporary camp. It was rare that the place was not occupied by ancient trees, and several bushes half a person's height were quickly eradicated by the soldiers' blades. Allen ordered to set up camp to rest, and soon several large fires were set up and bonfires were lit. After allocating the night watchman, Allen sat down to rest. Laura came over and took out the bacon wrapped in banana leaves and the leather bag containing water from the rucksack. These were the team's dinner tonight.

After drinking a few sips of water from the leather bag, Allen handed it to Laura. While he was eating the bacon, there was a sharp howling sound from something deep in the forest, which probably gave the Howling Woods its name.

Lola's race has lived in forests and mountains for many years. Even if the Howling Forest is far away on another planet, there is not much difference in terms of environment. Therefore, in the forest, Laura felt like a fish in water. Entering the environment she was familiar with, Laura's senses were naturally three points sharper than others. After drinking a few sips of water, she lowered her voice and said, "Be careful at night, I have already found some traces of biological activity in the afternoon." .It means that there are living creatures in the forest, but we haven't even seen a ghost. I think those creatures deliberately avoid us, and maybe night is a good time for them to come out."

Allen nodded, and Laura said again: "You should rest first, and I will be responsible for the first half of the night."

Now there are only Alan and Lola, two strong men over level 20, in the team, and they naturally have to take turns to watch the night. In such a dangerous place, Alan was really worried about leaving the safety of the camp to the soldiers or Nelly and the other Mosasaurus knights. He didn't object to Laura's proposal, so he ate the bacon in two or three bites and then looked for a place to rest. Laura smiled, and pulled him to pillow on her lap, "It's good to rest here," she said.

Alan pressed his face against Laura's smooth, silky thigh skin, breathed in the faint scent of grass and trees on her body, and smiled wryly in his heart, how could he rest like this.
