Chapter 448: The Forest (1/2)

Xue Wei looked to all directions, but no matter where he looked, all he could see was a grassy plain that stretched for as far as the eye could see.

No matter what direction they looked, they could see the lush grass, there were no forests, mountains, or anything else in their sight. Only if they turned around would they see the sea, everything else was a green haven.

Xue Wei looked around and felt a little confused. Had Lan not said that they were close to a military camp?

It seemed as if they were far away from everything here, and he turned to look at Lan, who smiled happily. ”If we travel for a week, we will reach the military camp,” he said.

Xue Wei was at first annoyed when he thought about how they had to travel for so long before they would encounter anyone, but he soon understood why.

They were new to the Xiyang Continent. Although they were good at fighting, they had to get used to the new continent, and if they were too close to the camp, then they would easily be targeted without any time to adjust.

Now they could easily adjust to the surrounding environment while moving towards the military camp, and on the way, they would encounter some soldiers they could battle it out with.

Lan had taken everything into account, and Xue Wei had no reason to scold him, so he nodded his head instead.

The group began moving towards the direction that Lan had pointed out, and while they were not slow, they did not rush either.

They kept up their vigilance. The grass was up to their knees, so it was not only humans they were on alert for, but also animals, such as snakes.

If they got poisoned by a snake, depending on the strength of the poison, they might not be able to survive it.

The Luan Birds were flying in the air, working as scouts. While their intelligence was still low compared to most beasts, they were not to be underestimated.

From time to time, they would sweep down into the grass, and when they were flying back up, snakes and rodents could be seen caught in their talons.

The unfortunate beasts that were caught by the Luan birds had no chance of survival as they were gobbled down swiftly.

While their size was quite small, these cute birds managed to consume much more than their own weight worth in food.

It was as if their stomach was a big black hole, it was never full, no matter how many rodents and snakes that the birds caught, and stuffed into their mouths.

The birds did not actually need to eat. They were so highly ranked that they were able to sustain their bodies with the heaven and earth essence around them.
