Being Blind For Five Years, All My Disciples Became Forbidden Curse Mages

56 Common Enemy

Other than snake-type Magical Beasts, the snakes here were not poisonous, so everyone subconsciously did not fear snakes.

“In the depths of the Dark Forest live the descendants of the ancient Giant Lizards and some Elves.

In the past, there would also be some adventurers who went in, seeking rare treasures. From time to time, there would be some friction, but it was basically peaceful coexistence.

After all, there were many Magical Beasts in the Dark Forest and the Magical Beasts were the real common enemy.

However, for some reason, the Elves and beasts had begun to join forces and attack us Humans. If they walked out of the Dark Forest, they would pose an immediate threat to Fair City and Elf City.

The Trolls and Gnomes of the Lindong Highlands have been covertly eying us. If a new enemy appears behind us and we’re attacked from both sides, it won’t be a good thing.”

“Yes, you know quite a lot.”

“I also know other more interesting things. I wonder if you’re interested in knowing?”

Fang Ping looked at Andre. Red Camellia Snake was getting closer and closer to Andre. Andre’s face seemed to be a little red.

Andre was tall, muscular, and good-looking. Now that he looked a little shy, it was quite interesting.

“Why don’t we spar?”

After walking for more than a day, they ate rations and slept in the wilderness. Other people in armor and weapons began to appear around them. There were individual solo adventurers, and most of them were teams of four or five people.

Not long after, many buildings appeared in front of him. They had wooden fences surrounding the perimeter and the place looked quite lively.

“This is Bick Town, the town closest to the Dark Forest. There were many people the last time I came, but it’s not as many as now.”

For the past two days, Red Camellia Snake had been by Andre’s side. From time to time, she would come up and say a few words, but she had never paid attention to Fang Ping and Qing Niao.

Fang Ping thought to himself, ‘At least there is Qing Niao.’

“What are you doing here?” André asked her.

“Look at the Elves. Bick Town is a famous tourist town. The Dark Forest is the easiest place to see the Elves. Many people came to see the Elves because of its reputation.”

Red Camellia Snake glanced at the huge snake beside her. The huge snake rubbed against her. “This time, we’re here to kill Elves.”

Fang Ping listened from the side and asked, “Then why didn’t you clean up this place in the past? There wouldn’t be so much trouble.”

Red Camellia Snake ignored Fang Ping’s words. Andre replied, “I think it’s probably because of the Seven Races’ peace contract. If we start a war rashly, it’s equivalent to taking the initiative to break the peace contract. It’ll give other races an excuse to attack us Humans.”

Fang Ping nodded. “That’s true.”

“Hehehe, Andre, it’s not that simple. You probably haven’t seen The Legend of Duke Roland, right?”

When Andre nodded and looked at her, Red Camellia Snake rolled her shoulders and pointed to the backpack on her back.

Andre took her bag before she continued, “I didn’t fight not because I didn’t want to, but because I couldn’t win.

Before the Holy War, when Humans were at its peak, Duke Roland had led a team into the Dark Forest and returned with a crushing defeat. He had written in his book:

We occupied the archer towers of the Elf tribe and began to advance into the depths of the Dark Forest. Only then did we realize that the strength of the forest far exceeded my imagination.

Large super heavy-armored lizards, Thunder Lizards, Hellhounds spitting flames, and Elven archers constantly shooting arrows in the dark corners made it difficult for us to move. Moreover, there were balls of lightning constantly shooting out from the depths of the forest. Those who were hit would be paralyzed. No one knew what was deep in the forest.

In the end, I had no choice but to give up on the archer towers and leave the forest. In that battle, my team sacrificed three Legendary Knights. This made me regret my decision to attack the Dark Forest.”

Hearing Red Camellia Snake was as if she was telling a story, it seemed that she knew this piece of history very well.

Three Legendary-level professionals had died. That was really exaggerated.

Fang Ping poked at Qing Niao beside him and asked softly, “Duke Roland, is he William’s father?”

Qing Niao whispered, “No, it’s his grandfather.”

Red Camellia Snake continued, “It’s just that the Beast Tribe in the Dark Forest has never come out. They seem to be guarding something. Perhaps it’s as the legends say, they’re guarding the remains of the ancient Giant Iguana.

“This time, the Beast Tribe in the depths did not come out. They are not particularly strong, so they did not send out troops on a large scale. Instead, they issued various missions and let adventurers and mercenary groups deal with them together. The number of troops that take up the mission is probably not many.”

As they spoke, the God’s Chosen Mercenary Group was getting closer and closer to Bick Town. Teacher Su Xiaoya, who had been walking in front of the team, stopped and said, “Line up and follow me closely.”

A group of people walked into Bick Town majestically. Fang Ping could also feel what a tourist town meant. The houses along the way basically had the signboard of an inn. There were also many delicacies and exotic fruits being sold.

There were many people on the streets. They were also wearing armor and holding weapons. They looked around like they had just arrived in this town.

He followed Teacher Su Xiaoya to the entrance of a large restaurant. There was a sign hanging at the door that said fruit wine was for sale.

The group walked in. There were many tables inside, and only a few people were drinking and eating. It was four in the afternoon, not mealtime, but Fang Ping still felt a little hungry when he smelled it.

Someone came up and said something to Teacher Su. Then, he walked back to the counter and took out a pile of keys. It looked like they had already been reserved.

Teacher Su Xiaoya took the key and turned around to say to everyone, “I’m staying in Room 201, and Captain Sean is staying in Room 202. The two of you will share a room. Make your own arrangements. Other than the hotel, you have to report to me when you go out. Let me remind you. Remember to take good care of the things. This is not the Academy. There is no array protection.”

Fang Ping looked at Qing Niao. “Let’s share a room.”

Qing Niao nodded. “Sure.”

“Who should I share a room with?”

Fang Ping pointed at the Red Camellia Snake beside Andre.

Seeing Andre’s gaze, Red Camellia Snake crossed her arms and shook her head. “I’m sharing a room with Little Red. I’ve already told Teacher Su.”

Little Red should be this red and white snake.

“Then let’s have a room for the three of us.”

Fang Ping shrugged. Qing Niao nodded as well. In any case, they could sleep in the wilderness. It was not a big problem for two to three people to share a room.

The room was not big. There were only two beds, a table, a chair, and a tube that came from the fountain. Other than that, there was nothing else. It looked simple.

Placing his backpack on the ground, Fang Ping checked the room. The door was a simple wooden bolt, as was the window. Just like the Academy, it was not difficult to enter by force.

“Let’s put the beds together so it can sleep three people. What do you think?” Qing Niao asked.

“Alright, I’ll go buy something to eat. I see fruit wine here. I’ll ask the price. We can drink a little tonight.” Andre put down the things and ran downstairs.
