......
Northwestern Continent, Fairy Wilderness
"It's really weird It's like a lifetime ago."
Mo Tan opened his eyes in the green grass, subconsciously raised his hand to cover the sun, and sighed in a low voice: "It's only been one day... eh?" br>
His eyes suddenly widened mid-sentence, and he sat up suddenly, looking around the surroundings with a slightly stiff expression.
Lush green grass, unknown small trees, chirping birds, fresh earthy fragrance...
At first glance, there is nothing wrong, and I have indeed been here before The place was offline, and there was even a pile of symbolic bonfire embers not far away.
But the point is...
“Where is my tent?”
Mo Tan jumped up from the soft grass and looked around at the empty scene... In fact, it was not empty, but at least there was no such thing as a tent. He was shocked. Then he was stunned for two seconds, and then suddenly He turned around and looked at the crooked-neck tree that should theoretically be behind him.
Well, the Crooked Neck Tree is still there, but...
“Where is my horse?!”
Mo Tan exclaimed again and strode to the tree. In front of the crooked-neck tree where the horse was supposed to be tied, he stepped on a pile of horse dung that was not fresh, but he didn't see a single horse hair.
Obviously, neither the tent nor the horse have anything to do with him.
"No way..."
After a while, Mo Tan shrugged dumbfounded and let out a long sigh: "Will someone really steal it?"
That's right, right there. When Mo Tan logged off the line the day before yesterday, the horse he bought from Anka Market was still tied to the tree, and he did not log out while lying on the grass, but bought it from Anka Market at the same time. tent under the line.
When I woke up, except for myself, the tent and the horse were gone.
This is so embarrassing...
Although Mo Tan (lawful good personality limit) is a very good person in all aspects, he is not a good person or an idiot. Naturally, he does not understand the principle of being on guard against others, but because of this place It was relatively inaccessible, and the tents and horses were not worth much money. It was really not worth stealing from the merchants or adventurers who came and went nearby, so he finally decided to stay here and log off, but it didn't work. If you think about it, it’s really gone!
“Alas, but it can’t be said that I am completely unprepared.”
Mo Tan sighed again, summoning his own horse, which he could reach by straightening his legs after riding on it. After stepping on the self-exploding sheep on the ground, he left the shallow forest as fast as possible and headed towards the road not far away a few miles to the south.
Five minutes later, Mo Tansheng, who had arrived at the big forest from the shallow forest, turned back from the north with no regrets, speeding up his steps to the real 'south', and finally returned after wasting almost fifteen minutes. On to the avenue.
While taking care of driving the mount (stretching his legs), he anxiously opened the message bar, preparing to check the dozens of messages Ji Xiaoge sent yesterday to confirm whether he was being raped. How far it fell.
As mentioned before, as 'Mo', he was tracking a certain 'caravan' with Ji Xiaoge. To put it bluntly, he was following the slave traders under the underground chamber of commerce 'Viper', and because of Mo Tan's online time It's relatively erratic, but when it comes to specific operations, Ji Xiaoge, who can fly and can be online all day long, is following closely, and Mo Tan, who is riding a horse (now there is no horse anymore), is a road fool and has unstable online time, is following behind. , it seems a little difficult to say, but because the slave traders also need to rest at night, and the slaves also need to eat, drink and relieve themselves during the day, the 'caravan' does not move very fast, so not only can it not escape the covert tracking Ji Xiaoge and even Mo Tan, who couldn't drive for too long every day, were not left behind, but gradually shortened the distance.
Until the day before yesterday...
Because yesterday was the execution day of the Requiem Plan, the day that decided the fate of Misha County, Mo Tan naturally put all his energy there, Not to mention the current 'Mo', even when he passively switched to the chaotic neutral personality yesterday, he didn't act too arrogantly. Instead, he switched personalities relatively cooperatively, allowing 'himself' to continue to take care of Misha County in a very face-saving way. Over there, the Requiem Plan was successfully completed, without any major flaws except for the accident in the second stage.
As 'Mo', he also said hello to Ji Xiaoge before, apologetically saying that if nothing unexpected happened yesterday, he would not be able to go online. He hoped that the beautiful winged girl who had worked hard for so many days would bear with her. Then continue to leave the caravan route to yourself through friend messages.
This is not a very complicated job, because the people of the Viper Chamber of Commerce have to escort a large number of slaves, so naturally they cannot move too fast, and they spend most of their time taking the main road as much as possible, every day They would rest in the villages and towns and other population gathering places they passed along the way. Although they never stopped, they were not in a special hurry, which made their tracking work very convenient.
Especially for Mo Tan, if those slave traders really took all kinds of small roads and took wild roads, then 99% of the time he would be lost when he was alone and had a weird sense of direction, and he would never be able to find it again.
But if they take the main road, it will be a different concept. You must know that although Mo Tan is not very familiar with this place (in fact, he is not very familiar with places other than Misha County), but in his hands But there is a book called [Mag's Adventure Notes]. In addition to a lot of practical adventurers' experiences, it also comes with a simple map of the northwest continent. Although the paintings and words on it are quite ugly, the various avenues and Places such as population gathering points are quite intuitive, and Mo Tan's ability to analyze maps is also very superb, so with Ji Xiaoge constantly feeding back the target route, he miraculously did not get lost along the way. direction.
In the past few days, he and Ji Xiaoge have been separated by about half a day's journey. Because the population of all races in the Fairy Wilderness is not small, the villages and small towns along the way are also very dense. The Viper Chamber of Commerce's The slave traders would find a place to repair every day until the next morning, and Ji Xiaoge, who was following them, would also stay in the same place after disguising themselves, while Mo Tan would have to walk one or two towns slower, because there were The horses have to be taken care of, and he will try to find a place to settle... his own horses every time before he goes offline.
Different from [Self-Exploding Sheep] or [Falling Ax City Wolf Whistle], Mo Tan’s horse is an ordinary purchased horse. It can be used as a mount, but it cannot be placed in a bag or disbanded.
Since the self-exploding sheep is not a living creature, it can be stored in the bag, and even if it is not stored, it has a compression mode like a yarn ball. The wolf whistle of the character 'Hei Fan' is more advanced, and the Warg Xiaobai Its nature is somewhat like that of a player. It can be dismissed without NPC witnessing it. When summoned again, it will come from nearby in a "relatively reasonable" form, which is also very convenient.
But Mo Tan's current (actually already before) horse, which is not worth much, does not have the above-mentioned functions. It is a simple horse that cannot be put away or disappear.
Just the day before yesterday, Mo Tan, who was rushing in the Fairy Wilderness, in order to make up for the progress as much as possible, did not choose to find a nearby place where the horses could be placed to get offline. Instead, he kept rushing until the Requiem Project was about to start. After leaving the main road, I found a relatively suitable environment and pitched a tent. After preparing enough fodder, I tied the horse to a nearby crooked neck tree. I also made a small bonfire that had no practical effect. Finally, Only then did I get into the tent and log off.
He knew that he would disappear because he was not noticed by the NPC, but even so, people who happened to pass by would not take action against the worthless tent and the worthless horse, and then ...
Then there was nothing.
So Mo Tan had no choice but to ride a sheep. After all, although the speed of the self-exploding sheep was not as fast as that of a horse, it was not much different from his own running speed under normal circumstances, and it did not consume physical energy. It was just an estimate of the time. It would take a lot of delay. After all, I didn't travel all day yesterday, and my mount changed from a horse to a sheep. It would be difficult to catch up with Ji Xiaoge and the gang of slave traders in a short time.
But as the saying goes, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other. Mo Tan lost his horse and knew it was not a blessing. After opening the message bar, Mo Tan found that the situation was not as he thought. It was not the only one who was not on the road all day yesterday. He and those slave traders were not on their way either! Instead, they continued to stay in the border city where they arrived the day before yesterday.
‘They are still here and have sold a lot of supplies and supplies, so you don’t have to worry. ’
‘I have found out the purpose of these guys, they are going to the Cassero Prairie! Just wait until I hear it again...'
'Trouble, I found the low-power contact device that the children put on their cars, and those guys started to be wary! But he probably hasn't found me yet. ’
‘They haven’t set off yet, so I don’t know if they plan to travel at night. ’
‘Remember to reply to me when you go online, it’s so boring now! ’
‘I’m just kidding, I’m actually very motivated, but I’m a little panicked by myself. It would be terrible if they find me out, I definitely can’t beat them! ’ ‘Mo, do you think I should go to the place where they live to apply for a job and make something poisonous for them to eat? ’
‘But I can’t find poisonous ingredients, and I don’t dare to stray too far from this small town...’
‘That’s right! Cordoba told me that the relationship between our two real friends seemed to be warming up quickly! But they are dealing with a very difficult matter. Although Cordoba and Yuchen (my friend, she is beautiful) did not tell me carefully, they are still a little worried. ’
‘Another friend went even further and didn’t even reply to me! But I heard that he was very busy, so there was nothing I could do. ’
‘My sister has been acting a little weird lately! Something has gone wrong all day today! Do you think she might have eaten something bad? I'll go back and make her some soup that's good for her stomach to replenish her body. That girl has liked eating out since she was a child. How can the food in those shops be as clean as home-made food? ’
‘Haha, I saw something very interesting, hahahahahaha! ’
‘You’re not online yet? What on earth are you so busy about~’
‘Ah, I’m sorry, I’m not asking for privacy or anything, I’m just too bored~’
‘Rarot, radish, I am a potato, the eggplant is still being monitored, and there is currently no sign of leaving the basket, over. '
'Three years later and another three years, three years and another three years~'
'Han Tieguo~Han Ya Lei called to repair the ladle pot~Uncle~Blue Dog~Sixth Brother ~Sengwo~Floating far away! ’
‘Hahahahahahaha, it’s so fun! ’
‘What happened! Something big happened! Are you silent if you're on it? Just squeak if it's on! ’
Mo Tan: "..."
The above are all the messages Ji Xiaoge sent from last night to just now. Mo Tan felt that the words he wanted to complain about were almost suffocating his neck.
But regardless of anything else, the last one is really a bit worrying!
So Mo Tan immediately replied with a "squeak".
Two seconds later
‘Hahahahahaha~~ I asked you to squeak and you really squeaked, hahahahahaha! ! ! '
Mo Tan: "..."
[Can old jokes from many years ago make this girl laugh instantly? 】
Mo Tan still complained in the bottom of his heart, and then quickly replied: 'Ahem, sorry for coming up so late, what's the situation over there now? What happened just now? ’
Ten seconds later
‘Well, it’s indeed a big deal, but it has nothing to do with those bad guys, so don’t worry. ’
Ji Xiaoge’s reply without any information arrived successfully, which made Mo Tan’s head full of black lines.
Before he could reply, the second message from Ji Xiaoge came right after...
'That, it was actually Jadeka and Yaya...well, there are Brother Dabbs and little Anthony are here. Hey, when can you come and take care of it? ’
[Huh? What? 】
Mo Tan was confused at the time, and immediately concentrated on reading the news about Ji Xiaoge on both sides, and then...he hit a tree because he didn't pay attention to the road.
Five minutes later, Mo Tan, who was back on the road, finally recognized the fact after repeated research, speculation, and argumentation, that is, the three (four heads) of Jadeka, Yaya, and Anthony Dabbs were really After running over to Ji Xiaoge, although there was no big trouble because Chef Ji fed Anthony in time, the few friends who were supposed to be doing adventurer missions near Anka still caused a stir. Small commotion (Anthony takes most of the credit).
What on earth is going on! ?
Mo Tan wanted to confirm, but Ji Xiaoge said that he couldn't explain clearly in the message. In order to prevent Mo from hitting the tree or hitting something in the tree again, he decided to wait. Mo Tan won't talk until he meets everyone.
'However, although I haven't shown off yet, Dabus and Lao Jia are not stupid. As the team leader, you should think about how to explain it in advance. If you can't use the trump card, don't use it...'
Ji Xiaoge expressed his last words in the news.
‘The trump card? ’
‘Well, I thought of an explanation that shouldn’t cause any problems and allow them to go back obediently. ’
‘What explanation? ’
‘Elope. ’
'Are you kidding...'
'Sure, Dabbs can't believe it! ’
‘…’
‘Hahaha, are you excited? ’
‘No. ’
‘Beast! ’
‘No! ’
‘Not as good as an animal! ’
‘…’
