No matter which world he was in, Han Jin had never had such a flashy experience. The people on the street all turned their attention to them. Their eyes were either stunned or shocked. The former was because of the people, and the latter was because of the magic staff.
Han Jin was also quietly observing the magic crystal on the magic staff. In short, the shape was too strange. Was that really a magic staff? No matter how he looked at it, it didn't look like a magic staff. Instead, it looked like a rare weapon, the Golden Melon Hammer! The sight of a beautiful woman walking with a hammer in her hand was somewhat shocking.
Under the gaze of countless people, the group kept walking forward. Not to mention the pedestrians, even the patrols of the Mercenary Association obediently made way for them. They dealt with all kinds of people all year round, so they were very clever. In this day and age, if they really got a magic crystal of the highest quality, they would hide it or put it in their space ring, trying not to let anyone know. If they dared to show it off and walk on the street, they either had amazing strength or an unimaginable background. No matter which one it was, they couldn't afford to offend them.
"Where are you from?" Léger said to Asa with a smile, "It seems like you are not from around here." In fact, what he said was nonsense. There were no magic academies in the nearby territories.
"We are from the Elemental Capital." Asa didn't hide it.
"Elemental Capital?" Léger's expression changed, and his body couldn't help but stop.
"Yes."
"Are you students of the God's Language Magic Academy?" Léger asked again.
"The Elemental Capital seems to only have one magic academy, right?" Asa felt a little funny.
"No wonder …" Léger took a deep breath.
Sassoux suddenly thought of something, "Is she that genius girl …"
The woman walking at the front suddenly turned around. Her cold eyes swept over Sassoux, and finally glared at Asa.
Asa couldn't help but lower his head and smile bitterly, "You got me into trouble!" After that, he quickened his pace and caught up with his companions. Obviously, he didn't want to talk to Léger and the others anymore.
They had attracted a lot of attention on the streets, and they were still the center of attention when they arrived at the Mercenary Square. They were even the center of attention when they arrived at the Teleportation Magic Array. Actually, it did not feel good to be in the limelight. Han Jin and the others, as well as the young magicians, felt a little uncomfortable. Only the woman looked indifferent. She was obviously used to it.
"Got it!" The young man named Erwin ran over. "We can go now."
"How much did it cost?" Asa asked.
"Three thousand one hundred gold coins."
Moxinke's eyebrows twitched involuntarily. A magic scroll that could teleport thirty people back to Isolated Cliff City was ridiculously expensive, but these young magicians didn't seem to care about money at all.
"Okay." Asa looked at Léger. "Where should we go?"
"Teleportation Magic Array Number Four."
Under the guidance of the guards, the group walked towards Teleportation Magic Array Number Four. Han Jin looked around curiously. The so-called Teleportation Magic Array Number Four looked like a huge plate, except that the plate was made of countless Adamantine stones engraved with runes. Han Jin had a deep impression of this special stone. He had almost broken his head when he tried to use it!
Around the Teleportation Magic Array, there were eight two-meter-tall stone pillars, also engraved with runes. When Han Jin and the others stood in the middle of the "plate," the magician in charge of activating the Teleportation Magic Array began to chant loudly. The pillars lit up one by one, and the Adamantine stones under their feet became crystal clear. Countless runes seemed to come to life. Then, a faint light curtain appeared out of nowhere and enveloped everyone on the Teleportation Magic Array Number Four.
Seeing the light curtain getting brighter and brighter, Han Jin, who had been corrupted by science, suddenly had an idea. What would happen if he stretched one of his legs out of the Teleportation Magic Array Number Four? His body would be in another place, and his leg would be left here? What would happen if he stretched out Morrisons's greatsword?
However, Han Jin had already understood the power of magic, so he didn't dare to experiment recklessly. These were just thoughts that flashed through his mind.
Suddenly, he felt his body become light, as if he was floating. The people around him had all disappeared, and he was surrounded by silence that seeped into the depths of his soul. An indescribable sense of loneliness occupied his mind. Then, he saw patches of green, Morrisons, Sunier, and the others. Thinking back, it seemed that it was just his imagination.
"Is this the Tarasha Mountains?" Asa and the others looked around curiously. The Capital of Elements was very far from the Tarasha Mountains. They were all children who grew up in the Capital of Elements, and they didn't have the opportunity to travel to the Forest of Holy Animals.
A forest was definitely not a forest. This was something that only those who had been here before could understand. Every year, there would be many rookies who harbored longing and hope to walk the path of a mercenary. But without exception, the first days of these rookies would always be filled with endless sorrow, suffering, pain, and even fear. There was definitely a huge gap between hope and reality!
Some people persevered and became stronger and stronger. Some people, after only one experience, vowed never to set foot in the Tarasha Mountains again. And some people, forever swallowed by the endless green!
When it came to the danger of the environment, the forest was not inferior to the battlefield. On the battlefield, the enemies could be seen, but here, there were invisible dangers everywhere.
With so many tall trees, an astronomical number of fallen leaves were produced every year. The fallen leaves couldn't be turned into soil immediately. They always had to go through a long process of decay. In some places, the accumulated fallen leaves were almost a meter deep. When one stepped on them, one's leg would sink deep into the mud. By the time someone helped to pull out the leg, the leg would be covered with stinky mud, which was disgusting.
Although the Tarasha Mountains was a huge forest of holy animals, the most abundant creatures in the forest were not holy animals, but all kinds of small insects, such as ants, spiders, and so on. Ants were easy to deal with, as they couldn't cause any disturbance to people walking, but spiders and spider webs were a headache. These rookies didn't think that spiders were anything special. They just needed to avoid them, but spiders weren't as stupid as them. The spider webs they made were always hidden between the leaves, and they couldn't see anything from the outside. When they pushed the leaves aside and walked forward, they bumped into the spider webs.
As a result, the screams never stopped. Not only women, but men were also screaming. Suddenly, there was a palm-sized spider on their body. No matter how strong a person's psychological quality was, they couldn't bear it.
What's more, some spiders were very aggressive. When a person's head or arm hit the spider web, they would immediately attack. Fortunately, the spiders they encountered were not too poisonous. Fortunately, they brought two priests with them. Although they were auxiliary priests, they could always release medical skills.
The trouble was not only that. Some grass or leaves looked very soft, but the edges were very sharp. With a light scratch, they could cut a bloody mark on a person's skin. The blood beads were nothing, but the burning pain was extremely unbearable. And after a short time, the bloody mark would swell up.
There was also a kind of emerald green frog that was disgusting. After hearing a sound, they would always lie there motionless, waiting for people to come closer. Then, they would suddenly spit out a large amount of green juice. The sticky juice stuck to people's bodies, which was extremely disgusting.
There were many other troubles, such as flies the size of gold coins, snakes that could blend in with the surrounding environment, and so on. The previous sense of curiosity soon passed. After walking less than half a mile in the forest, the young magicians were already complaining.
In comparison, Han Jin was much calmer. He had experience in the primeval forest, and there were many similarities between the species of the two worlds. Although his Spirit Possession was not enough to fight against strong enemies, it was more than enough to stop these disturbances.
Morrisons had only traveled in the outer area of the Tarasha Mountains before, and had never set foot in a dangerous place. At first, he could bear it, but later, he could not bear it anymore. He simply pulled out his greatsword and slashed wildly to open a path. Sassoux and Léger were happy to follow behind Morrisons. As for Sunier, this forest was her hometown. Moreover, she did not walk on the ground. Instead, she flew between the branches like a bird.
Gradually, the group became a long snake. Everyone followed behind Morrisons. Not only did they move faster, but they also felt more relaxed.
After walking for about a mile, Morrisons suddenly stopped and shouted, "I can't go on … Let's take a break! This lousy place is really too hateful! "
"Is this your first time here?" Léger asked curiously.
"Yes."
"You grew up in Isolated Cliff City. How could this be your first time in the Tarasha Mountains? How dare you call yourself a mercenary? "Léger said in a disdainful tone.
"Damn it! Before I met Raphael, I was only a sixth-grade swordsman. Why did I come here? Do I want to die?! "Morrisons shouted angrily and anxiously.
"Then how could I come here?"
"You are a thief!" Morrisons felt inexplicably sad. Warriors had always been the most tiring and dangerous profession. Not only did they have to fight at the front, but they also had to work hard to travel.
Morrisons and Léger didn't realize that they had made a big mistake by arguing. They had revealed their secret. Morrisons's words could be reversed. Before he met Raphael, he was only a sixth-grade swordsman. Was it because he met Raphael that he became a seventh-grade fighter? Of course, only those who were very meticulous would notice this, and they would only have some suspicions.
"Big guy, if you are tired, you can take a break," a female deacon said sympathetically.
"Do I need you to tell me that?" Morrisons replied angrily. He regretted accepting this mission. The Tarasha Mountains were a dangerous place. He had to conserve most of his strength and be ready to deal with any accidents. Also, if there were no outsiders, he could ask Han Jin to 'come' and recover his lost strength immediately. In short, it was very inconvenient right now, so he was very depressed.
