Chapter 72 Camp
Chapter 72 Camp
Dorothy changed her clothes with some difficulty.
The upper body is lined with beige wool, paired with modified half-body leather armor and gloves.
The lower body consisted of fine linen trousers and corsets that secured the thighs and ankles.
She was wearing open-toed leather sandals.
The clothes fit her surprisingly well, and she really wanted to ask Elor how she had chosen such a perfect size for her.
Furthermore, leather armor of this size must have been custom-made; it couldn't have been bought on short notice.
This outfit must have been prepared by Elor sometime in the past.
That's really frightening, Miss Elor.
After all three had changed into their leather armor, they set off again.
Due to its unique geography and environmental advantages, the Resilient Forest is basically devoid of towns, consisting only of campsites.
The caravans that came here were all fully armed.
After all, most of the people who enter here are fugitives.
However, this place borders the territory of the dark elves and can produce a lot of magical materials.
Therefore, some daring caravans are still willing to come here to do business.
Elor chose a camp with many merchants and slowly drove the carriage in.
The guards at the camp entrance stopped them immediately.
In response, Elor tossed out a silver coin, and the journey was completed smoothly.
After the three entered the camp, Dorothy looked at the tents filling the camp and remarked, "It's quite lively."
"Because these people have no fixed abode, they might leave any day now," Elor said, looking at the people in the camp.
Each of these people wore a wary expression.
Some were dressed in rags, leaning casually against the trees, while others held daggers in their hands, their eyes darting around at the people in their surroundings.
Dorothy had noticed that many eyes in the camp were on the three of them.
I feel like I'm being targeted by someone with ill intentions.
Dorothy gripped the ring on her chest, channeling a little magic into it to sense where Kane and the others were.
Dorothy discovered that Kane and his men were in a camp deeper in the Gritwood Forest.
"Huh!"
Dorothy suddenly realized that she could use alchemical tools smoothly.
So she quickly went to Elor's side and asked in a low voice, "Elor, can alchemical items be used here?"
Elor paused for a moment, then turned to look at Leonse.
Leon nodded slightly.
"Yes, the magic circuits within the alchemical artifacts are already fixed, and the magic power is provided internally without any external intervention. Once the artifact is activated, the magic is released instantly. The chaotic magic power in the Toughwood Forest cannot be mixed into the magic even if one wanted to."
This discovery gave Dorothy a glimmer of hope.
She should have realized this when Elor mentioned that she could use magical items to help her cast spells.
Moreover, magical items are generally very expensive.
The people here may not actually have the financial means to buy it.
"Professor Lyon, the ring you gave me has been a huge help!"
Dorothy wears two rings on her chest; one is for communication, and the other contains magic at the level of a great mage.
Although it can only be used once a day.
However, it's enough to be considered a trump card.
Dorothy then looked at Elor and Leona and asked, "Do either of you have any magical items with you?"
Elor and Lyons both nodded.
As formal magicians, they naturally possess many magical items.
"That's good." Dorothy was completely relieved.
However, magical items have limitations, so you can't rely entirely on them for safety.
So Dorothy continued to wield her sword.
In one afternoon, Dorothy finally raised her sword skills to level 11.
She deliberately saved her attribute points for today, waiting to upgrade her sword skills.
The attribute points will immediately follow the upgrade!
【Sword Skill - Lion Slash LV12 (1/120)】
The effect is great!
In an instant, Dorothy felt that her mastery of swordsmanship had reached a new level, and many new understandings of swordsmanship appeared in her mind.
Dorothy clenched her fist and turned to look at the large tree in the distance, which would take two people to hug.
"Phew~"
He exhaled, and traces of magical flow appeared on his arms and calves.
The next moment, her figure disappeared from the spot.
He cleaved the tree trunk with his sword.
"Lion Slash!"
boom!
The thick tree trunk was snapped in two with a single blow.
Two screams were heard amidst the falling tree.
"what!"
"Jump!"
Two disheveled figures hurriedly jumped to the ground before the tree completely collapsed.
Dorothy looked at the two people who had fallen to the ground with an unfriendly expression.
"You two have been staring at me all afternoon, haven't you?"
He planted the longsword directly in front of the two men.
"My lord, spare my life!"
"My lord, my lord, we were just following orders! Please have mercy!"
As they spoke, the two men repeatedly kowtowed on the ground.
Boom boom boom, and in no time, two marks were left on the ground.
"Get lost," Dorothy said coldly.
The two felt as if they had been granted a pardon and quickly got up and ran away.
These two weren't the only ones spying in the camp; there were many other eyes watching from the shadows.
However, after Dorothy made her move, many of them disappeared at once.
"What a bunch of worms."
Dorothy's face showed a hint of disgust.
Not only is the environment here disgusting, but the people are too.
She had just drawn her longsword and slung it over her shoulder.
Elor rubbed his eyes and got off the carriage.
"What's wrong, Dorothy?"
The driving duties were mainly done by Elor and Dorothy.
However, Dorothy has a strength of 30 points, which is strong enough that even warriors might not be as strong as her.
So she didn't feel very tired.
But Elor is different. Although a mage uses some magic to enhance their physique, it's a very small amount.
She might be stronger than the average person, but even a superhuman couldn't withstand driving for such a long time.
So after arriving at the camp, Elor began to rest and catch up on sleep.
She only came out to check when she heard a noise outside.
Then I saw the thick, large tree lying not far away.
Elor covered her mouth with one hand, her eyes wide with surprise, and exclaimed, "My God, such a thick tree, did Dorothy do that?"
"A tree that thick, even a novice warrior couldn't cut it down, right?"
A novice soldier simply cannot do that.
Dorothy's swordsmanship was indeed at the level of a novice warrior, but her strong physique and immense magical power made up for that difference.
"Why are you cutting down trees?" Elor asked Dorothy, puzzled.
It can't just be a spur-of-the-moment thing, can it?
"You should go back and rest."
Dorothy pushed Elor back into the carriage.
"Kane is resting now. I estimate they'll start their own mission soon, and we need to catch up then."
Elor shrugged, somewhat speechless.
"Sigh, Lyon is really something. When we came out, he didn't even give us a single sketch of the wanted criminal. Now we have no choice but to follow Kane. Otherwise, we could have just left that cold-hearted kid behind and taken care of him ourselves."
As she spoke, Elor lifted the carriage curtain and climbed into the carriage.
Dorothy didn't really care about the mission.
Lyon didn't draw their portraits because he didn't want them to get too involved.
On this point, Dorothy felt that she and Leon shared the same thoughts.
They came out only to escape the Ryan family.
