Eight hundred and sixty-ninth chapter Higurn Forest
July 21
Ryan had been walking through the forest for three days with the white horse of unknown breed in front of him.
It is midsummer when the forest is very humid, and from time to time there will be a merciless heavy rain falling from the sky.
After venting the accumulated water vapor within half an hour, the heavy rain will miraculously stop again, and the sun will appear over the dense forest again.
During these three days, Ryan has no idea how many times he has repeated such a strange climate.
Every time, the white horse senses the heavy rain in advance, and this guy will be very clever to find caves near the rock wall or some abandoned ancient ruins to hide from the rain.
Yes, ancient ruins.
There are a large number of buildings left in the Middle Ages, and even the Dark Ages that the Seven Stars Church has not yet emerged.
Although after hundreds of years of wind and rain, most of these buildings have become dilapidated.
But based on the remaining Gusemlia texts and architectural styles on some buildings, Ryan, who had read countless history books when he was a child, finally roughly recognized the roughly where the forest is located.
The forest was very muddy after the heavy rain. Ryan stopped the white horse in front of him and advanced in the dirt with difficulty.
His thin aristocratic summer outfit had long been cut by a large number of branches and thorny vines growing in the forest.
Ryan, who followed Master Yun across the continent in his early years, did not care about this. Instead, the bone injuries that gradually began to heal made him feel a little frown.
His ribs are still in a dislocation state, and it is obviously not a good thing to heal in this way.
This means that there will be greater pain when receiving treatment later. Before treatment, the distorted healing bone must be recorrected first...
"Gurremiferia, Sicliff Town..."
As he reached out to touch the ancient Semliavin carved on the outer wall of the ruins, Ryan murmured in the curious and puzzled gaze of the White Horse, "That is to say, the forest where I am now is located in the territory of the Principality of Remifilia?"
Although he had already expected that he would be abroad, he did not expect that he would be thrown here by the space turbulence.
Strictly speaking, the Principality of Remifilia does not directly border the land of Erebonia, and the two countries are separated by Northampulia, a huge territory.
After figuring out the area he was about, Ryan kept up with the pace of the White Horse with a thoughtful look on his face.
Remiferia, near the North Sea, is a country with abundant natural resources.
Although the land area is far different from that of Herrebonia, the people's satisfaction in life is not low.
Because the army was not vigorously developed, Remifilia was able to invest a large amount of money into people's livelihood.
The medical technology of the Principality is the best in the mainland. Professor Sailand, who is now providing treatment for Yukint III at Ursla Hospital, is from a famous family in Remifilia.
"Is Remifilia's Great Forest...Siggne Forest?"
The Higgen Forest is one of the most legendary no-man's lands in Remifilia.
Legend has it that this forest was cursed by a demon, and no one who entered the forest survived.
More than a decade ago, with this forest as the center, an epidemic called "Demon Fever" broke out in surrounding towns.
However, when Ryan and Lisha took Qiya to travel to Remifelia last time, he had learned in detail about the so-called "devil forest" from Grand Duke Albert.
There are no demons in the Shighn Forest. If you really want to say it, the so-called demons are actually humans themselves.
The history of this forest is indeed very ancient, and it can even be traced to the time when Remifilia was founded.
The early Remifilis mostly lived in the forest and were accompanied by the "divine beasts". They believed that the sacred forest would give them everything they needed to live.
Until the Seven Stars Church gradually emerged on the mainland, a small number of Remifelis gradually expanded outward from the forest where they had lived for hundreds of years.
In the following hundreds of years, the Remiferians, who were used to eating by the sea, gradually moved out of the forest.
This Shighn Forest, the birthplace of the Remifilis, is gradually abandoned, leaving only the remains of the ancient Remifilis residence.
The so-called demon fever at the time was actually a by-product of an evil experiment carried out by the D∴G sect.
The trees in the forest were contaminated by the sect experiments, and as long as someone cut them down, they would spray out a strange spiritual power.
This vicious spiritual power will not cause death on the spot, but it will gradually affect the health of the polluted person and is very contagious.
After the D∴G sect's stronghold in the Shighn Forest was wiped out by the joint forces of various countries, the Principality of Remifilia sent people to take protective measures to cut off all the polluted trees.
After nearly ten years of restoration, the forest's own circulation system has long digested the strange spiritual power of the time, and this ancient forest has restored its tranquility.
Recalling the "divine beast" mentioned in the ruins just now, Ryan's face looked a little strange.
The divine beast that Remifilia, which is said to be called a unicorn, is printed with a unicorn pattern on the national flag of the Principal of Remifilia.
Unicorns are not goddess holy beasts. According to the research of some modern scholars, these creatures called "divine beasts" are actually strange existences that are similar to phantom beasts but can live in the real world.
Thinking of this, Ryan looked at his friend Ma who was leading the way ahead with an scrutiny look.
‘According to legend, the unicorn has the appearance of a pure white horse and a striking unicorn, and is extremely psychic. It would not be...’
"Woo?"
The white horse in front seemed to feel Ryan's gaze, turned his head very cutely, and looked at Ryan with a pair of watery big eyes.
During these three days of getting along, Ryan knew that this friend of horses had been secretly observing him, but he didn't care too much about it after being with the Holy Beast for a long time.
The Shighn Forest has been no one dared to enter the terrifying legend left by the D∴G sect back then for many years.
If this white horse is really a unicorn with a long lifespan, it should have not seen humans for a long time, and it would be understandable that it would be curious.
In the memories brought by Ryan's previous life, unicorns are very pure creatures. Except for the kind-hearted girl, they will not accept anyone's approach, let alone ride.
There is a similar saying in the legend of Semlia's unicorn. Ryan still remembers that there is a unicorn on the school badge of Saint Astraya.
However, according to Ryan's observation, this white horse friend did not show any sign of repulsion to him.
Although his ride was never allowed in the muddy forest, the ordinary approaching touch did not make it disgusting.
Early morning on July 22
Ryan, who had been a little worried about the direction of the White Horse leading the way, was refreshed.
He smelled a cool morning breeze with a fishy smell coming from the front.
"This is... the smell of the sea. Can you finally leave the forest?"
"Ye!"
The white horse, who had been leading the way, suddenly made a loud whistle, and the warning contained in the voice made the happy Ryan again alert.
"Dong!Dong!"
It seemed as if some kind of huge creature was wandering nearby, and the rhythmic sound of the earth was heard from outside the forest.
Feeling the shaking feeling transmitted from the ground, Ryan's brows gradually frowned.
