"Well, this ......" Ranster hesitated for a moment, and said slowly, "Your Royal Highness, you don't know anything. There are indeed quite a few wild beasts in the forest. But unlike the rest of the forest, the Black Forest here erupts every month with a tide of beasts, and the animals become extremely violent.

This is the reason why I prevented His Highness from entering the forest yesterday, because yesterday was the day of the beast tide, and the animals were more irritable than usual all day long, and even more crazy at night.

Today, just after the beast tide has passed, the animals have calmed down, and I brought you and others in, prince, to ensure safety. However, because of this, after the beast tide, the animals should have suffered heavy losses, so there were fewer occurrences. ”

"So, you can't hit anything today?" Gro frowned, took out a water bladder studded with broken gems from the saddle, poured a puff of water, and said unhappily, "Disappointing!"

His Royal Highness Prince Groh was furious. Lancet exclaimed, "It's not that you can't beat it, it's just that it's more difficult." In fact, once encountered, it should be injured beasts and the like, which are easier to deal with than usual, and may be able to catch cheetahs, tigers, wild boars, etc. ”

"That's it. Hearing this, Prince Gro's eyes flashed, "Okay then. "Shove the water bladder and hang it back in the saddle. Because the plug was not plugged properly, water continued to seep out of the water bladder, falling to the ground drop by drop, and Gro didn't care.

After a moment of thought, Gro suddenly took off a leather glove from one hand and handed it to Lancet.

Lancet was stunned, "Prince, you are ......"

"I've got you. Gro whispered, "Well, don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't think you really can't afford to wear gloves, it's just that you were arguing with the Caesar family just now, and I heard it." I think...... You're doing a great job. Actually, I don't like the Caesar family either. ”

"Forehead ......"

"Besides. Gro sighed lightly, "I will be assassinated on that day, and this glove is a waste on my hands, so I might as well give it to you." ”

"Your Highness is worried, the eldest prince has become a king, and His Royal Highness is about to become a grand duke or prince, who in the entire kingdom dares to be unfavorable to His Highness?"

"Oh, that's exactly what happened. "Big brother, he has become a king, I'm afraid I will become a thorn in his side." He is nearly twenty years older than me, and my presence threatens his son's succession to the throne. There's nothing yet, but maybe one day, it's going to be done to me. In fact, he has been king for three months now, and the fact that my father promised me the titles and domains of my two younger brothers has not been honored, shows that he really wanted to do so. ”

"But...... Your Royal Highness the Little Prince, hasn't you already been made a duke and have your territory demarcated?" Ranster said softly, "Maybe...... It's just that because the time is too short, the new king has not yet been busy. ”

"Not necessarily!" Gro shook his head, "My youngest brother, only three years old, is not a threat to him at all, and the division of the territory is also controlled, so he can naturally be generous." And my two younger brothers and I are different, I'm just afraid of ......"

In the end, Gro shook his head a little irritably, "Forget it, let's not talk about it, let's hunt and relax." With that, Groh took off the glove on his other hand and shoved it into Lancet's hand.

Randster held a full pair of gloves and his eyes flashed.

The gloves were clearly good gloves, made of fine deerskin, and inlaid with several ornamental gemstones. If nothing else, just dismantling the gems and selling them was equivalent to half a quarter's harvest in his territory. For such a windfall, he will not refuse. Of course, there is no need to be grateful to Dade or show off, after all, the group of people who came with him, except for Prince Geluo, the rest are richer than him.

But......

Ranster was about to stuff the glove into his arms, when he suddenly thought of something, and turned to look at the nobles of the Caesar family in the team behind him.

The nobles of the Caesar family, who had quarreled with him before, turned pale instantly when they saw Lenster's appearance. Lancet and the prince were so close just now that he didn't hear what he was talking about. Seeing Lanster's appearance now, he thought that Lanster had deliberately borrowed a pair of gloves from Prince Gro and wanted to throw them in his face to challenge him, so he was so frightened that he stopped in place and did not dare to step forward.

Ranster saw this, laughed contemptuously, turned around and rode forward, the rest of the people followed, and the nobles of the Caesar family followed with some caution.

......

The team of nearly 100 people left the place, and the wild boar, which was so thirsty that its throat was about to burst into flames, suddenly rushed to it, and then its eyes glared and brightened.

There is water!

Running on all fours, the wild boar quickly ran to a yellowing grass, stretched out its pink tongue, and greedily licked the wet blades of grass, feeling its soul tremble.

It's water! It's really water! And it's sweet water, with honey in it!

"Bang ......"

Trying to lick the water off the blades of grass, the boar looked at the trail of water that was spreading all the way into the distance, and quickly caught up, its tail flicking happily behind its buttocks.

......

The other side.

Halfway up the mountain, Richard and Pandora walked on a steep mountain path.

Richard could clearly feel a faint mental fluctuation coming from the mountain, acting on his brain.

Richard knew that every month that passed, this mental fluctuation would suddenly explode to its peak, controlling the minds of many animals in the forest.

However, before the outbreak, this mental fluctuation can play a certain role in activating the brain, which can exercise mental strength and develop intelligence.

To put it simply, the mental fluctuations in the mountain are beneficial in normal times, but every other month, when the mental fluctuations suddenly increase to their peak, the biological stimulation is too strong, and the beneficial becomes harmful.

From this point of view, the crystal skulls in the mountain are somewhat similar to a large-scale mind booster, which elevates the minds of most of the forest animals all the time. At the same time, tests are carried out every other month to eliminate the unqualified parts. This also explains why the animals in this forest seem to be smarter than the animals in the rest of the world.

This reminded Richard of one of the legends about the crystal skulls: there are a total of 52 crystal skulls, 13 of which are "singing skulls" with movable mandibles, which store knowledge. The other 40 are "talking skulls" where the mandible cannot move, which can improve some of the abilities of humans, such as physical strength, endurance, intelligence, etc., so that humans can become skull guardians and help spread the knowledge in the "talking skull".

Now it seems that the crystal skull in the mountain, in addition to its relatively small size, is indeed similar to the legendary "talking skull".

If you can really get the crystal skull in your hands and study it thoroughly, so that the crystal head does not play a role in a scope, but for a certain individual, then it is very likely that a biological brain can evolve rapidly and the mind can instantly break through the limitations of species. Or let a person's mental strength be greatly improved.

I remember that it was recorded in the "Chapter of Monroe" that spiritual strength and mana reserves are two very important criteria for wizards to advance. In this way, the crystal skull can be called a wizard's artifact.

Of course, everything is still just speculation now, and it can only be confirmed by holding the crystal skull in your hand.

It's just that how to take the crystal skull out of the mountain?
