It is difficult for the people of light to understand how painful it is to travel in the dark.

Since it wasn't a normal night, the convoy couldn't orient itself based on the stars in the sky. In fact, as we go deeper into the Western Wilderness, the surrounding situation is becoming more and more weird, although under the shroud of the "Divine Wing Banner", most of the power of the [Eternal Night Skycanopy] is obscured, but the darkness itself alone is enough to make people feel uneasy. The convoy had slowed down more than once to confirm that they were heading in the right direction. Although the road ahead could still be seen in the bright light, it was easy to get lost in the dirt road, and no one was sure if it was the right one.

"What the hell."

Carter squinted his eyes and looked around with his axe, then shook his head at Jenn in frustration.

"I know why those guys are crazy, it's black in the front, it's black in the back, it's black on the top. It reminds me of those days in the Dark Regions. But even if it's a dark area, there are glowing plants, but this ghost place has nothing. Even our team is here. Sometimes I can't tell where we're going, and it's not a good thing to lose our way in the wilderness. ”

Hearing Carter's exclamation, Jenn smiled slightly, but at this moment his mind couldn't help but think of Tilis, this believer of the Silver Holy Maiden would definitely be much more useful than a group of high-level paladins if he was on this occasion. But of course he won't summon Tilis back, after all, she was originally a believer, and now she has been transformed into a succubus. Tillis's faith was also transferred to herself. It's okay to fool stupid mortals on weekdays, but experienced clergy are likely to see the problem. Jenn certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to bring his own people here and have them burned at the stake in the name of heretics.

"Mr. Carter has been to the Dark Regions?"

Walk over to Carter's. Jenn admired the beautiful scenery in the distance, and asked casually when he heard this. It had been "about" a day since they entered the Wild West. It is said "approximately" because in the darkness, there is no way for people to judge the direction. Even pocket watches are driven around by magic, and in the end, everyone still relies on their own circadian clocks and hunger to determine their three meals a day and their schedules. And now they are stationed there, ready to rest. The carriage with the Divine Wings banner was in the center, and a suggested defensive ring had been built around it, though Jenn didn't immediately order the Chaos Monsters to attack the convoy. After all, they are still in the wilderness, and too many attacks by monsters will make people suspicious. Not to mention that those are all Jenn's precious soldiers, how can they be taken out and consumed casually.

But......... Jenn wasn't unprepared for this.

"I've been there once before when I was fighting the Dark Elves."

Hearing Jenn's inquiry, Carter frowned. His complexion instantly became much more gloomy.

"To be honest, I don't want to remember that place at all. It's not a place where humans should be going at all, and I feel chills all over my body just thinking about it. When I think back to the past, my greatest desire was to go to the dark places to explore, and it wasn't until I experienced it myself that I realized how painful and terrible it was for ordinary people. ”

"I'm sorry to remind you of unpleasant memories."

Jenn shrugged his shoulders at Carter's answer. Of course, he knew how cruel and unfriendly the Dark Regions were to humans, and where there were no people, there was waiting for people, and where there were people, they would suffer from malice from all sides. In fact, many of the slaves in the Dark Elf City were originally idiots like Carter who "misheard slander" and went deep into the dark regions -- of course. No one will sympathize with the fate of these guys.

"It's nothing, it's all in the past. But even so, I couldn't contain my passion for adventure. You see, I'm also a decorated nobleman. But I can't learn your ways. Truth be told, I prefer to carry an axe to the mountains and woods to knock over a few kobolds, or sweep up a group of goblins who don't have long eyes to destroy crops. ”

Said here. Carter sighed as if he had realized something.

"Sometimes I think those monsters are much cuter than humans, and what doesn't look like a good thing is definitely not a good thing. Just hack it to death with an axe, and you don't have to worry about someone coming to you for trouble. But humans are different. Who knows what's going on in the heart of the person around you? Some people may not be as bad as he appears, and some people may not be as good as he appears, and this is all trouble..............."

"Sorry to interrupt you both."

At this moment, a clear voice came, and the two turned their heads to see Alice standing there quietly, looking at them with a smile. She saluted Carter before looking at Jenn.

"Master, it's almost meal time, do you want to prepare for dinner?"

"Of course."

Hearing Alice's inquiry, Jenn nodded, and then he looked at Carter next to him.

"Would you like to come along, Mr. Carter?"

"Okay, of course, but there doesn't seem to be anything good to eat here."

Faced with Jenn's invitation, Carter naturally readily agreed, but he looked around and then shook his head. It's pitch black all around, and if you change to another place, you might be able to hunt a game and have a party, but in this kind of ghost place, I'm afraid there is no enjoyment at all.

But apparently Jenn has a different view.

Under the gaze of everyone, the petite maid smiled and stretched out her hand, took out a white tablecloth from the hem of her skirt as if by magic, and then waved forward, and the next moment, a dining table appeared silently under the white tablecloth. Then I saw Alice's wrist flip, and in the blink of an eye, the originally empty table was already filled with tea sets, desserts, and plates. It wasn't until everything was arranged that Alice turned around and made an inviting gesture to everyone, and following her gesture, Carter and the others were surprised to find out. I don't know when, the chairs have been neatly arranged around the dining table. Just waiting for the guest of honor to take a seat.

"Please, Mr. Carter."

glanced at Carter, whose eyes were as big as brass bells. Jenn smiled slightly, and then he walked straight to the table and sat down, and at this moment Tinidel also walked slowly at Alice's invitation, she first glanced around, frowned slightly, and then sat down in the chair Jenn had pulled out for her. Both men behaved so calmly that they looked as if they were not at all in the middle of nowhere, full of dangers, but in their own restaurant, which was luxuriously decorated.

And after everyone was seated. The little maid shuttled back and forth between the carriage and the table, serving a variety of fragrant dishes, including apple pie, foie gras, grilled steak, muffins, roast chicken, and even a steaming fish soup. Carter was stunned when he watched it, he had lived for so many years. It is not the first time that the aristocracy has pursued luxury and enjoyment. But like Jenn, such a luxurious enjoyment can be said to be unheard of, unseen.

And compared to Carter. The mages were almost going crazy. Unlike adventurers like Carter, those high-level mages could see at a glance why Alice was able to conjure so many things out of thin air. It's all about the effects of space spells. And the spells of the space system are quite difficult and advanced spells among the casters, not to mention anything else. Just mastering spatial fluctuations and using them is already quite difficult for most mages. And although the little maid in front of her doesn't look very old, her strength has only reached the level of a middle-level mage. But just relying on the space spells she mastered was enough to laugh at the crowd.

And what made these mages vomit blood even more was that such a profound spell was actually only used to store these meaningless ingredients and utensils in the hands of the other party...............

If Jenn knew what these mages were thinking, he would have laughed at them for being unheard. Although Alice seems to be a human race, this race is actually a spiritual race, strictly speaking, this cute little guy in front of him is a creature born in the realm of spiritual power, just like those mind snatchers and even the Gies. And the spirit races all have a little bit of a spatial ability, so it's not an exaggeration.

Of course, although he regarded these idiots as monkeys in his heart, Jenn still did enough etiquette on the surface and invited everyone in the team to dine together. As for Jenn's invitation, those paladins and priests did not accept, but this is normal, these priests themselves are masochists, and naturally they will not follow this kind of extravagant enjoyment. The mages, on the other hand, were not so disciplined, and in the face of Jenn's invitation, they only hesitated for a moment before going to the table. Like the aristocracy, the mage is essentially a person who pursues pleasure -- otherwise, how could he have invented such a frenzied thing as the "mage's mansion technique"?

Since it was not a formal occasion, the crowd did not observe etiquette too much. I have to admit that after a day of marching in the wilderness, being able to sit in a soft chair and enjoy a hearty meal can be regarded as the supreme enjoyment of life. It's just that the fly in the ointment is that the environment is really unappetizing, and Carter was worried about whether the scent would attract those monsters, but Jenn quickly dispelled this doubt, and then ate it.

Since most of the people were tired after a day's walk, they naturally had no scruples at the table, and it didn't take long for those delicious foods to be swept away. Almost at the same time, Alice was served a glass of wine and dessert after the meal.

"Whew............... It's a real treat. ”

Carter sighed and put down the chicken bone in his hand and burped in satisfaction. Then he turned his head and looked around.

"To be honest, I never thought I'd eat such a meal in such a place......... If anyone had told me that I could enjoy such a good time on the adventure, I would have thought he was daydreaming. ”

As he spoke, Carter picked up his glass, looked at the wine in front of him, and then nodded to Jenn with a sigh.

"Sure enough, you're going to enjoy it, boy. I've been a nobleman for so many years, and I've never thought of using my brain in this area. ”

"It's a different personality for everyone."

Haruka raised his glass, and Jenn accepted Carter's approval with a smile.

"It's not a bad thing to like to enjoy, you see, Mr. Carter. When I am in a desperate situation, I think that there is such a beautiful young lady waiting for my company, and there are such good things waiting for me to enjoy, and I can't die here -- maybe I will exert more power than I can imagine. ”

"Hahaha, it makes sense, it makes sense."

Hearing Jenn's words, Carter couldn't help but laugh, these words would definitely be reprimanded if those priests heard them, but for an adventurer like Carter, it was quite appetizing. Isn't it true that they work hard for a drunken dream and die, and it is natural to enjoy life for a lifetime, otherwise why does everyone work hard to make money, isn't it just eager to live a comfortable life?

Glancing at Carter, Jenn nodded, then he withdrew his gaze into the dark night sky, and then, a strange smile flashed in Jenn's eyes.

The cold wind howled.

Enoa stood quietly in the middle of the dilapidated hall, the cold wind and the blizzard howling through the gap and blowing on her body. But Enoa didn't feel the slightest chill at all, she let go of her right hand, let the frozen and stiff corpse in her hand fall to the ground, and then turned her head to look at Elise beside her.

"Still haven't found the target, it seems that as you expected, the other party has evaded our detection, at least in the current situation, there is no hope."

"So what do we do? Miss Enoa? ”

Hearing Elise's inquiry, Enoa frowned, and then replied.

"Go according to the plan -- I will inform the master and prepare to carry out the second plan." (To be continued......)
