Chapter 522 Little Adventurers

On a cliff more than 200 meters high, a waterfall about ten meters wide flew down from the top of the mountain and fell into the lake under the cliff, with its momentum like a galloping horse.

Several streams flowed around the lake, but there was no small river large enough. It was probably because there was an underground river at the bottom of the lake.

On both sides of the stream is a huge forest full of various fruit trees, many of which are covered with ripe fruits in summer.

Ten young men and women, from eight to teenagers, stood at the upper vent outside the fruit woods, threw a few pieces of herbs into the newly lit pile of smoke.

The foul odor produced when the herbs burned suddenly spread into the fruit woods with the thick smoke. The monkeys who spent the night in the fruit woods last night were fleeing in all directions by the smell. Charles was also fumbling out of the tent and immediately developed wind wings and flew into the sky.

After Hasselboured and Juan that night, Juan agreed to the dragons coming and transport Fafna's body and the blood-soaked mud on the ground.

The garden turned into mud, but the dragons lost money.

After Fafna's body was transported away, Hasselblad gave Juan a torn cotton robe found when he was digging and a wooden magic wand soaked in dragon blood.

No one knew the robe, but everyone including Juan recognized that the magic wand was owned by Anthony's teacher Santos.

Charles ignored the next thing. The next day, after roughly telling the story of the incident to the relevant person, he left Matrix City without looking back. He did not want to be involved in the subsequent political struggle between Juan and Anthony.

However, Juan handed the dragon blood wand to Charles before Charles left, saying that it was the trophy he deserved.

The wand itself is a fine product, and can be regarded as a blue weapon. After being soaked in dragon blood, it has reached the level of purple weapon.

However, Charles wanted to go to the Soul and Dream Temple next, and asked the pope to seal Fafna's soul power into this wand, so that it could become an orange weapon.

He doesn't want the stolen goods stolen by the bandits, but the bandits themselves can still play a role.

Now Charles's target is the destination of the caravan in Pitland, and he still has to go over and play with everyone.

At this time, Charles had not left the Kingdom of Meseta. Last night, he found a place with mountains, water and fruits in the village and the shop behind him to rest for a night. However, he was awakened by the children early in the morning.

Charles flew to the group of children, and to be honest, he was not much older than them.

The children found that they seemed to have caused trouble and got into an incredible person, and they suddenly became panicked.

At this time, a boy about ten years old, who seemed to be the leader, walked to Charles, bent his left hand and stretched it out in front of his chest, and gave him a standard adventurer's salute.

He said, "We apologize for offending you unintentionally."

This boy is different from other children. He holds a short bow, puts a quiver in his back basket, and has a hatchet tied behind his waist.

Charles, a guy in his heart, wasn't angry about it.

At a glance, these kids knew that they were little adventurers who came to collect fruits. Selling these fruits to adventurers unions was their only income.

Little adventurers whose strength in the wild is equal to delivering vegetables naturally need some means to drive away dangerous monsters and animals, and releasing this smelly smoke before work is their common method.

Charles waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I won't blame you."

"Who taught you the recipe for the beast-repelling smoke? The general formula is not that strong enough."

The little adventurer said, "Report to you, this was taught to us by an elf lady named Harkara who passed by our town a few years ago."

Charles was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that he would hear his elf teacher's name here, but he didn't know where the "mountain elves" were hiding now.

He asked, "Where are your living places? Are you far from here?"

The little adventurer replied: "We live in the city of Granada, just northwest, and you will be there after crossing a mountain."

Charles thought for a while, waved at him and said, "You guys go and do your business, don't worry about me."

The little adventurers were relieved to see Charles not pursue them.

Not long after, two older boys dug soil with shovels to put out the fire. After the wind blew away the stinky smoke, they walked into the fruit woods with their backpacks woven by bamboo.

Charles packed up his tent and then went to the pool beneath the waterfall and started fishing.

The fish here are not big, three fingers wide, and look similar to the saury fish. There are no small bones. They are good to make soup and roast.

The most important thing is that this guy has been lost in the mountains for two days, and he now needs someone to take him to a nearby human settlement.

Even chasing wild boars can lead to the road, this belongs to his dark history.

In the fruit woods behind him, the shouts of the children as they picked fruits came from time to time. They were very familiar with the forest and knew which fruits were just right for picking.

Charles felt that this fruit forest was probably planted deliberately by someone because some fruit trees need a special environment to grow healthily, and some fruits also require insects or birds not friendly to humans to pollinate.

These children pick fruits very quickly, and fill their baskets with fruits at noon.

At this time, they began to take out dry food and a kettle for lunch, and planned to go back after they finished eating.

Charles was using thin rattan to skew the fish they caught and then skewed them like a bunch of grapes.

He plans to exchange these fish for dinner when he goes out.

He looked at the young men and women who were eating under the shade of trees nearby and found that what they ate was different. Some ate rice cakes, some ate root pieces like sweet potatoes, some used skin bags for water, and some used bamboo tubes.

From this we can see that older teenagers are more economically prosperous. They eat rice cakes and fill water with skins. Young teenagers can only eat root pieces and fill water with bamboo tubes.

Charles soon discovered the problem and asked those people: "Are you missing one person?"

He didn't see the child who had talked to him before.

The children looked at each other, and then a girl said to Charles carefully: "Handington went nearby to find herbs."

Seeing the expressions on the girl and others' faces were calm, it was obvious that this was not the first time that the child named Handington had done such a thing. He was not taken away by a beast, and Charles was relieved.

Not long after, the boy named Handington came back. Charles saw a pheasant and a hare hanging around his waist. The basket behind him was also filled with fruits, and some herbs could be seen on the fruits.

The girl who had just replied to Charles stood up. She quickly walked to Handington's body and wiped the sweat from Handington's face with her sleeves, and then handed the bamboo tube containing water to Handington.

The people around were no longer surprised by this scene. They were chatting, and several people were even discussing whether they would rent a donkey to get more fruit tomorrow.

Now it is getting hotter and hotter, the juice business in the city is starting to prosper, and the demand for fruits is also starting to grow.

After a simple lunch, Charles followed these little adventurers back to the nearby city.

He claimed to be an adventurer who went out to hunt, but unfortunately he got nothing this time.
