Newland and Sceffen still followed the three centaurs.

They walked without hesitation, and walked happily. Just by looking at their excited faces, you should know that they have no complaints in their hearts.

Of course, with their ingenuity, it's not that they couldn't think of the possibility that Link might be using them to test drugs.

They just didn't dare to think about it, and they didn't dare to complain.

After all, they didn't believe that Link would really be willing to kill them.

Moreover, it is said that Link's attainments in reciting spells are astonishing.

But despite their bravery, the errands that Link entrusted to them were not so easy to complete.

Those centaurs who were invited to act as guides treated Link with indescribable respect, and their attitude towards the two of them was also indescribably bad.

They refused to speak to Newland and Sceffen at all along the way, and just kept their heads buried in their journey.

Every time Newland and Sceffen greeted each other with shy smiles, the three centaur would just snort at the two of them with their nostrils, and then turn their heads and say something to their companions. He Si Gefen couldn't understand, but he could guess that there was no good thing to say about the Centaur language.

The road is not easy to walk in winter.

Although the snow in the Forbidden Forest is not deep, even that thin layer of snow still buried a large number of dark pits, tree stumps, and stones on the ground...

Horse people don't care about these things.

They have thick hooves, and they have long been accustomed to shuttling between dense forests, and they have developed the ability to cross mountains and ridges as if walking on flat ground.

Newland and Sceffen would fail.

In addition, the horsemen had no intention of waiting for them or letting them ride on their backs, so even though Newland and Sceffen had exhausted all their strength, they were still quickly thrown away by the horsemen.

"puff--"

Newland, who was advancing at full speed, suddenly stepped into a hidden snow nest. After his calf hit the edge of the pit as hard as iron, he lost his balance and was driven forward by inertia.

"Be careful!"

Sceffen, who was following him, yelled, and pulled his right arm violently, and then pulled Newland's falling body.

At this time, a branch whose leaves were frozen by ice and snow, and whose end was as sharp as a dagger was less than 10 centimeters away from Newland's face.

"Thank... thank you!"

With lingering fear in his heart, Newland said tremblingly.

"Now is not the time to talk about this!" Sceffen helped Newland pull his foot out of the snow nest and shook his head, "Is your foot not hurt? If it's still hurt, keep going!"

Newland stretched his ankle, nodded, and then looked at the horsemen nimbly moving through the dense forest in the distance with a kind of resentment.

Sceffen's eyes fell on the magic wand that Newland held tightly in his hand, which had already started to flicker with black light, shook his head and said:

"Don't do anything stupid, I dare say that His Excellency Foley is following us not far away to observe our every move!"

After what happened just now, Newland obviously no longer intends to continue to pretend his thoughts in front of Sceffen. Hearing this, he chuckled softly:

"Mr. Foley doesn't care about the life and death of the three-headed horseman. I believe you can also see this."

Sceffen didn't deny it, he was silent for a while and said:

"It's better to kill as few lives as possible."

"I didn't want to kill them!" Newland said, "I just want those stupid beasts to know that we two are not something they can humiliate at will! Then force them to lead the way for us!"

"The horse people are all crazy, they will not give in. Your lesson will only make them feel humiliated, and then they will start to retaliate against us, and in the end we have to kill them all. So... ...what's the difference between you and killing them in the first place?"

"Then what do you think we should do?! Those centaurs simply don't cooperate!" Newland yelled angrily, "Be sober, Sceffen, it was Mr. Foley who gave us the power to subdue those centaurs One of the tests! We have to do that!"

Sceffen had no intention of carrying out Newland's suggestion.

He transformed the wooden sword in his hand into a machete, and then he walked ahead alone and started chopping down the bushes blocking the way.

"Then let me open the way, you just follow behind me!"

Sceffen muttered, and Newland laughed angrily when he heard this, and cursed with a grin:

"Are you out of your mind? We're going to have to fight giants later, and now you're wasting your strength in places like this?"

Sceffen scolded angrily without looking back:

"It's good for a dog like you to follow me honestly! If I get thrown off by the centaur because of my slow speed, or if the mission fails because I spend too much energy on the road, I will take full responsibility for it! No need You shameless viper!"

After saying that, Sceffen began to mumble, but the momentum of chopping with the machete in his hand became more and more violent, just like he was chopping off Newland's dog's head now.

Newland didn't say much anymore, although the sneer on his face didn't disappear, but he followed behind just as Sceffen said just now.

This was not because Newland was afraid that if he pushed Sceffen into a hurry, the opponent would turn around and stab him in the head, but because Sceffen had only saved him once not long ago.

To repay the favor, Newland didn't mind listening to Sceffen once, even though Sceffen's idea seemed stupid to him.

The two continued to move forward slowly and firmly.

The backs of the horse people in front of them are becoming more and more distant.

This made Newland's smile almost full of irony.

He couldn't wait to laugh at Sceffen as soon as the centaurs completely disappeared.

Of course, Newland would not sit back and watch the mission fail after laughing at Sceffen.

He will firmly carry out his original plan, find and kill the giant, and then place the giant's body in front of Link and Sceffen.

Newland felt that this was the perfect way to balance gratitude and tasks.

It's just that Sceffen seems to have exploded a small universe at this moment.

Every time the horsemen were about to pull them away completely, Sceffen would growl and suddenly speed up the road, and after a certain distance, he would weaken again.

This scene seems to be using some special explosive spell.

At first, Newland didn't care about it, because the consumption of this explosive spell must be very high, and Sceffen must not last long.

However, at the next moment, when they crossed a particularly dense grove, their eyes suddenly opened up!

A road wide enough for two carriages to travel side by side opened up in front of them.

The road is not smooth, and there are broken trees and stumps everywhere. Judging from the uneven fractures of the trunks, it looks like a huge monster swept across here, destroying all the trees along the way. All crashed.

Sceffen gasped and stopped, pointed to a huge footprint on the ground and said:

"It looks like we're about to find him."

After finishing speaking, Sceffen glanced at Newland provocatively, then slowed down and continued to move forward.

There is no need to accelerate now.

Due to the proximity to the giant, the horsemen had all stopped, and it was enough for Newland and Sceffen to use their normal pace.

Newland also followed behind Sceffen without saying a word. His face was as black as the bottom of a pot, but his eyes kept falling on a tree stump not far away.

Compared with other tree stumps, although the cracks on this one are also uneven, it is scorched black.

This kind of mark does not seem to be caused by a simple impact or breaking, but more like it was blown off by some kind of magic spell.

For example - thunderbolt explosion!

...

When Sceffen and Newland caught up with the stalled horsemen, they realized that the horsemen were actually observing a unicorn.

To be precise, it was the corpse of a unicorn.

A dead unicorn is not much more noble than an ordinary creature.

Its silver-white fur has long been messed up by dirty blood and branches, and its pair of beautiful sapphire-like eyes are muddy by dust. The blood that should have been exuding silver light has also recovered due to the disappearance of magic power. black and red.

The culprit that caused its death was a huge wound on its chest and abdomen.

This wound extended from his chest to the valley, and all the internal organs and some ribs disappeared.

Curiously, the most valuable horn of the whole unicorn was intact.

This cast a strange shadow over the unicorn's death.

Because if the hunter killed it, it would be impossible to let go of the priceless unicorn.

And if the beasts in the Forbidden Forest did it, it would be even more impossible to just eat the internal organs and waste so much fat and protein.

"The giant killed it!"

A centaur pointed to the uneven wound on the unicorn's chest and abdomen and spoke out viciously.

Hearing this, Newland and Sceffen looked at him in surprise.

Of course, they were not surprised by the centaur's judgment, but it was the first time that these centaur spoke to them in human language.

The centaur ignored the slightly offensive expressions on the faces of Newland and Sceffen, waved his hand, and the other two centaurs on the left and right stepped forward to help the poor The unicorn restrains the corpse.

Newland and Sceffen could see that the horsemen were very skilled at this kind of work.

They first straightened the unicorn's bent neck, then helped it slowly close its open chest, and finally began to dig holes in the ground with their hooves.

The frozen soil is very hard in winter, so they had a hard time digging.

Without any hesitation at all, Sceffen waved his wand and helped them open a large square hole in the ground, and then buried the unicorn's body in it together with the horsemen.

It wasn't until the pit was filled again that the leading horseman said to Sceffen and Newland:

"As human foals, you're really good."

Hearing this, Sceffen smiled happily, but Newland curled his lips in disdain.

The centaur looked at the new tomb on the ground and said:

"Unicorns are the darlings of heaven and earth. Most creatures in this world can't bear to hurt them when they see them, except for humans and giants, evil creatures whose hearts are full of desires.

In comparison, giants may be even more evil.

After all, human beings, as advanced intelligent creatures, at least have reason in their hearts. But the giants are different. There is absolutely nothing in their hearts that can suppress their desires. So..." The centaur pointed to the small dirt bag, "This scene happened. "

The centaur's eyes began to turn red slowly, he looked around the ruins and said sadly:

"Giants don't have a good thing, killing and plundering is the main theme of their life, even the half-blood giant you arranged on the outskirts of the Forbidden Forest is no exception!

If you have the opportunity to go to our tribe, you can see nearly a hundred tombs similar to this one. These centaurs all died at the mouth of the giant arachnid raised by the hybrid giant!

Fortunately, Master Venus is here!

He wiped out those nasty reptiles like the autumn wind sweeps away the fallen leaves! So far, our little pony can finally run in the forest with peace of mind!

I dare say that is definitely the most beautiful scenery in the world!

In order to protect this scenery, I am willing to give my life! "

The horseman's expression suddenly became firm again, and he pointed in one direction and said:

"Now a pure-blooded giant broke into the Forbidden Forest again. In the past few days, it has slaughtered more than two hundred creatures recklessly. If it is allowed to continue like this, I am afraid that the previous disaster will fall on the centaur tribes again. on the head.

We can only accompany you here.

So ponies, or emissaries of the morning star!

Please go on bravely!

Although we don't know why Master Venus sent you to do this. But since it is his order, then we sincerely wish that we can get off to a successful start! "

After saying that, the horsemen first all turned towards Sceffen and Newland, clenched their right fists and clasped their chests forcefully, making a tidy and loud muffled sound, and then began to return the same way wrapped in snow foam all over the sky.

Sceffen, who had already been stimulated by the horsemen's blood spurting and trembling all over, immediately learned to salute in the direction the horsemen left. Lan, motioning for him to do the same.

It wasn't until Newland saluted very reluctantly under the half-forced force of Sceffen, and the horsemen had gone away, that Sceffen put down his arms contentedly, and carried the machete to continue in the direction pointed by the horsemen. go ahead.

"Fool! They are afraid that we will not go, so they fooled us!"

Newland chased after Sceffen and said quietly.

"It's impossible," Sceffen said firmly. "The centaurs are the children of nature, and they don't lie."

Newland said disdainfully:

"Of course the Son of Nature is good. But that's about the old centaur. As for the current centaur... Hehe, all the current centaur survived after surrendering to the wizard in the war. What do you think? Is this kind of scum who has learned to betray qualified to be called the child of nature?"

Sceffen didn't intend to talk to Newland at all, and continued walking forward as if he didn't hear it.

This made Newland furious!

He stepped forward in three steps and grabbed Sceffen and shouted:

"Put away your virgin heart! You can't always trust others like this! This will kill you!"

"My life is mine, so what does it have to do with you? I've said it a long time ago. If you lose the battle because of me, you can just run away and leave me alone." Sceffen said coldly, "And even those horses People are really lying to us, so what can we do? Don’t you want to complete the mission issued by His Excellency Foley? You and I both know that it is impossible!”

Newland was a little confused by Sceffen's words.

He did not expect Sceffen to see the whole thing so clearly.

But at this moment, Sceffen suddenly changed his face, and whispered:

"Hush! Don't talk, I smell a giant, it's near us!"
