Three small figures emerged from the bushes in a mess.

The fat man Tennis was sweating heavily, panting heavily, and went straight to the relatively flat ground: "No... Huhu... I can't run anymore..."

"Bao," Kamiyu spitted out the leaves in his mouth, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked back nervously: "Didn't those things follow?"

"I don't know." Compared to the two partners, Riddle, who grew up in the countryside, seemed much calmer. While picking off the leaves on his head and neck, he focused on listening to something. After a while, he answered with certainty: "There is no movement, it seems that we have already dumped it."

Hearing Riddle say this, Kamiyu sighed and sat down on the ground full of fallen leaves to rest.

"Speaking of this, I remember that the textbooks wrote that goblins are ally of humans and one of the members of the Pan-Human Union Alliance?" After calming down, Kamiyu had the leisure to think about other things: "Then why do those goblins chase us? That kind of fierce look doesn't seem to treat us to eat."

"Because those are black goblins." Tennis finally gasped, sat up from the ground, and slapped off the bugs that crawled onto his clothes. Two days ago, the little fat man was frightened when he saw these bugs, but now he is almost used to it...

"Black Goblin? What is that?" Kamiyu and Riddle looked at the fat man with curiosity.

"Do you all sleep in monster learning class..."

Tennis said angrily, and then explained: "Black goblins are subspecies of goblins, and their strength is second only to bear goblins among goblin-like creatures... Well, although the ten black goblins are not enough for bear goblins to be a stick, but that's the truth. They are greedy and cruel, have low intelligence, and like to attack weak-looking creatures. There are also rumors that black goblins are actually just ordinary goblins infected by the abyss demonic aura. No matter what, they are not good guys."

"According to the records in the Monster Encyclopedia, the Black Goblin's siege level is about 3 levels, and there are corrections of addition and subtraction of 2 according to the individual's strength and arming level. But what I care more about is that." Tennis, who was talking, showed a confused expression on his gray fat face: "Black Goblin is the same as the bear Goblin. Generally, the number of actions at the same time should be between one and three. This time we encountered a number of nearly thirty heads, which was too abnormal!"

"No matter what..." Kamiyu stood up with a shrub, looking into the distance: "We must all work hard to pass this trial."

Riddle and Tennis also looked at him, with a look of yearning on their faces.

Through the tree canopy that has begun to become sparse, you can vaguely see the pillars that penetrate the sky in the east.

Pillar of Ledell.

After Adrick's students enter the trial gate, they will appear in the center of this floor. Then they must choose one of the four directions, southeast, west and north, formulate their own routes, and through many difficulties and obstacles, and finally reach any of the four Ledel Pillars. Only by touching the Ledel Pillars can the trial content be considered to be completed.

The three of them chose the east side, and with too many forks, they were dispersed from the large army as they walked. In fact, the team with the largest number of people is still maintained, with only about ten people.

Although he was chased by the black goblins, he also accelerated his journey unexpectedly. According to this progress, the trial can be completed in only two or three days at most.

"Okay, the rest is almost over, let's continue to set out!" Kamiyu slapped the leaves on his body and said enthusiastically: "The goal is the Pillar of Leder!"

"Oh!" "Oh!"

Ten minutes later.

"I...can't do it anymore..."

Tennis lay down on the ground, his eyes began to become muddy.

"No, you will be fine!" Kamiyu shouted sadly from the side: "Hurry up!"

The little fat man turned his head hard and looked at Kamiyu: "I didn't expect... the last of my life... is you by my side..."

"Don't give up! Now is not the time to give up!"

"Hmph... although I'm very unwilling to accept it... After I die, you must bury my body... under the pine tree next to my hometown Kash Bay..." Tennis trembledly stretched out his right hand to Kamiyu and solemnly explained: "On my epitaph... 'He was determined to move towards his goal until he was starved to death'."

"So, don't act like you're just hungry!"

Kamiyu grabbed Tennis's hand and pushed it hard, turning the fat man over directly, almost buried by fallen leaves.

"It's so noisy! I haven't had any experience of eating twelve hours since I was born!"

"Will you just lose a little weight while this is the time to go!"

Just as the two little guys were making noise, Riddle poked his head out of the canopy and pointed at the front: "It seems like there is a village not far from that direction."

Tennis's eyes lit up immediately and he shouted, "Food-!" and ran in the direction Riddle pointed.

"It was obvious that he looked half dead just now..."

Kamiyu looked at the fat man's back as he left, and stroked his forehead helplessly.

"Are we following?" Riddle asked Kamiyu when he slid down from the trunk.

"There is no way, I can't leave the fat man there and ignore it. I can only go and see it." Kamiyu shrugged: "Besides, if it is really an ordinary village, isn't it just right to collect information?"

After unifying their opinions, the two set out to catch up with Tennis. Although the food was very tempting, due to their size, even if Tennis ran with all his might, he would not be able to really throw Camieu and Riddle far away...

The village is not far from where the three of them are, and the journey time is shortened a lot. After more than ten minutes, the three of them arrived at the small village that Riddle saw on the top of the tree.

"Is this... a dwarf's village?" Kami asked Tanis in confusion at the villagers in the village who were about the same height as him but who looked like an adult.

Tannis was not running as many roads as his two friends, and it took him several minutes to breathe: "Not dwarfs, these are halflings. You'd better keep your stuff."

"Halling?" Riddle retracted his curious gaze and asked: "Have you taught monster knowledge classes? Why don't I seem to have heard of this race?"

"It is normal to not listen to it. There are almost no halflings in the Eastern Plain. Only the mainland terroir class mentioned them... I remember that no one of you two took the mainland terroir class, right?" Tennis glanced at the two of them, and Kamiyu and Riddle immediately smiled and looked away. For them, instead of spending time learning those courses, it would be better to spend time playing.

"But how is their relationship with humans?" Seeing that half-pearl villagers had already turned their attention to them, Kamiyu asked again. What attitude should be used to treat the other party next depends on what the other party thinks about humans.

"Although the halflings have a bad habit of stealing and short-sighted eyes, their relationship with humans is pretty good. It is said that during the Great Migration, people have hired many halflings as scouts."

As he said that, Tennis nodded to the halflings and gave an ancient noble ceremony.

Then the half-body left without looking back...

"...Is this what you said is a good relationship?" Kamiyu asked Tannis with an awkward look at the entrance of the village that had become empty.

“There are always exceptions!”

Except for the initial meeting was not pleasant, halflings were indeed not like orc elves, and they were prejudiced against humans from the beginning - although Kamiyu always felt that the halflings seemed to be looking at their group of people with the eyes of the fat sheep...

After spending a lot of copper coins to buy a pretty decent lunch in the restaurant, Kamiyu began to try to talk to the halflings in the restaurant.

Unfortunately, even Kamiyu, who has felt the warmth and warmth of human feelings since childhood and can understand the worldly styles of human feelings, cannot compare with those experienced and even somewhat rogue half-lings. After more than ten minutes of conversation, not only did he fail to get useful information from the other party, but he also wasted a lot of money.

"No, these guys are too cunning... Well, the sandwich is good."

Kamiyu, who failed to achieve his predetermined goal, could only chew the sandwich in depression.

At this time, a figure wearing a red robe suddenly appeared in front of them.

"Halpin is a natural scoundrel, it's too early to get trapped on them."

Riddle and Tennis were stunned when they saw the figure, and Kamiyu choked.

After finally rushing the sandwich choked in his throat with water, he pointed at the person in front of him in disbelief and shouted: "Red, red-haired dog!"

"Who is the Red Haired Dog? My name is Dorothy? Taylor, he is the picket committee member!"

The little blond Swiss curly girl wearing a red magic robe immediately became furious. She slapped the table and said loudly, and the sandwiches, fries and chicken on the table were shocked: "Do you question children still don't know my name?"

"That..." Tennis raised his hand and asked, "Does the children you mentioned include me?"

"That's not certain!" the little girl responded immediately.

“ouch!”

Tennis felt like he was hit hard, and let out a cry of unknown significance and fell directly on the table...

Kamiyu and Riddle looked at each other, then placed their hands on their chests and made a pause gesture: "Okay OK, Miss Doroth..."

"Who allows you to call me so intimate! Call me Taylor!"

The little girl put her hips on her hips and said arrogantly.

Seeing a tic-tac-shaped veins appearing on Kamiyu's head, Riddle hurriedly brought up the topic to prevent Kamiyu from getting angry: "Student Taylor, why are you here?"

"Yes, we haven't done anything now, why do you have to follow us?"

Kamiyu also asked.

"Who, who is following you! I just happened to pass by, just passing by!"

Riddle didn't notice anything wrong, but Kamiyu was different. He showed a smile on his face that made the girl feel inexplicably ashamed and angry. While picking up a sandwich and chewing it, he said in an unceremonious and old-fashioned manner: "Gurl, gurgle..."

"Swallow it to me."

“…”

After swallowing the food in his mouth, Kamiyu returned to the expression he had just now and asked the little girl: "I remember you have not had a few followers all the time? Where are they now?"

"It's just that I'm here to explore the way first, and they will come to meet up soon..." the girl stammered, but it seemed that the girl didn't lie much. Even Riddle, who was the simplest, could see that the other party was lying.

"Actually, you and your companions are separated?" So Riddle asked incisively.

"Talent, no!" The girl was red and red, shaking her head with a squirt, her long golden hair shaking together with her curly hair: "I, Dorothy? How could Taylor make such a low-level mistake!"

"Riddle, fat man, let's go."

Kamiyu put down what he had in his hand, stood up and walked out of the door.

Riddle looked at the little girl with some embarrassment, but stood up and followed Kamiyu.

Tennis looked at the sandwich with some embarrassment, but stood up and followed Kamiyu.

"Wait, wait a moment! I admit it... I'm separated from my friend and I'm lost..."

The little girl bit her lips and admitted with tears in her eyes and a humiliating expression: "So don't leave me..."

"We have no obligation to take care of you, are we?"

The smile on Kamiyu's face became even more worthy of a beat: "Why should I go with you, Lord Picking Committee?"

"But, but... oh..."

The girl said, and tears fell down.
