Chapter 606 The Mysterious Mage and the Ash Forest Quest

As for the large number of adventurers, the border towns bordering the Ifu Kingdom in various aspects such as Wild Horse Town were lively, especially the consumption and supplies of adventurers, which made the local residents make a lot of money!

At this time, in the mountains and forests more than ten miles away from Wild Horse Town, a gray figure dragged a wild goat towards a pile of stones.

There is a flat land under the stone pile. A small wooden shed was built on the flat ground with the stone pile. It seems that the workmanship is probably specially built by nearby hunters to rest.

The gray robe figure dragged the wild goat under the wooden shed, and used a tough skinned branch to penetrate from head to tail, and laid it on a simple stove made of stones in the wooden shed, and below were air-dried pine branches.

Then the man in gray robe pointed at the prey and saw that the fur of the wild goat was stripped off, leaving only a clean body, and no trace of blood appeared during the process.

The whole piece of sheepskin peeled off seemed to be dry and soft as if it had been carefully tanned by the master of the skinning process. It was directly spread on a wooden stake by the man in the gray robe as a chair cushion and sat comfortably on it.

After snapping my fingers, the firewood pile would ignite without fire, and a dark red fire light appeared. Soon the fire became vigorous, but it was very uniform and there were no smoke and dust impurities. If this scene fell into the eyes of the cooking master, it would definitely be called out that this is the most suitable fire for barbecue!

The man in gray robe flipped the sheep while waiting patiently, sprinkling some spices on it from time to time.

The heat from the barbecue is coming, and a refreshing rosin mixed with the unique smell of spices is very pleasant.

Just as a whole wild goat was about to be roasted, footsteps came not far away.

"There is a resting place in front. We will rest there for a while. After eating, we will rush toward the mission location!"

A tall man in half-breasted breastplate, who was leading the team, said to several companions behind him. The man had a long sword hanging on his waist, looking as if he was dressed like a knight and a swordsman.

Hearing this, the other people showed joy on their faces.

After walking for an hour, although the group was very strong, they were a little tired, which was very unfavorable for this mission.

"Captain! Take some wild game to satisfy your cravings!"

One of the thin young men said.

Looking at his black tight dress, a short sword on his waist, and a crossbow behind him, he knew that this guy was an agile warrior like a thief and an assassin.

The man in the lead glared at him and replied:

"You're just greedy, wait until you get to the place!"

The short young man shrank his head and stuck out his tongue. He obviously respected or feared the strong man. The other people couldn't help laughing when he saw his funny look.

Soon the group arrived not far from the pile of stones. When they saw the firelight in it, the strong man, the captain of the team, couldn't help but frowned.

"Someone is there!"

A man who looked fierce and had a scar on his face gestured to their captain.

"Captain, do you want it?"

The strong man shook his head.

"It's better to be kind when you go out. At worst, we can just take a short break outside. Anyway, it won't rain in this weather!"

As he said that, Benton walked towards the pile of stones ahead first.

When they arrived near, the team saw a figure covered in a gray robe and cloak sitting in the wooden shed, barbecuing food in front of them.

As for the arrival of this team, which looks like an elite adventurer team, the man in the gray robe seemed to have no idea, focusing on the roasted lamb in front of him.

"Sorry! We are adventurers from Mustang Town, don't know if we can take a break here?"

The man in gray robe heard the strong man's words and did not look up, but just stretched out his hand and signaled them to be at will.

When they see that the other party doesn't like to talk, these adventurers don't say much. Some adventurers who walk alone generally do this. Be cautious and don't like to contact others.

At this moment, the adventurer team began to unpack the package and take out the cooking utensils, and became busy for lunch.

The short young man received the command from the captain and immediately left the team and ran to the nearby forest. However, after a long time, he brought back two fat little animals.

The prey was handed over to the only woman in the team for treatment. The short young man sat outside the wooden shed, twitching his nose from time to time. His eyes were staring at the roasted lamb with a stronger fragrance not far away, with a desire in his eyes, waiting for his team's lunch.

Soon the only woman in the team made the food. Looking at the simple cut bread and stewed meat in the pot, and then looking at the roasted whole lamb on the other side, the short young man couldn't help but complain:

"Why is it just a stew, no barbecue?"

The woman dressed in a hunter and carrying a longbow said with a cold face:

"We don't have that much money to spend on useless spices, and want to eat barbecue to roast ourselves!"

Although the young man was a little unhappy about the woman's attitude, he didn't say anything. Obviously, he was used to this attitude, so he could only look at the roasted lamb that looked very delicious and swallowed his saliva.

At this time, the man in gray robe no longer slowly turned the sheep in his hand, but lifted the steaming roasted sheep, and waved his hand and a piece of oil cloth that appeared on the ground was spread.

Because the fire is even, none of the wild goats are burnt in their entirety, and their golden color is dark red. Without this, it can even arouse the appetite of a hungry person!

The man in gray robe placed the roasted lamb on it, and suddenly said to the adventurer team in front of him:

"We should share the delicious food. I can't eat so many of them by myself. Come together!"

As he said that, he took out a bright silver short blade, took off a lamb leg and a lamb rib like flowing water, waved his hand to pick off the barbecue, and enjoyed it with a large piece of verdant leaves.

Seeing the skillful method of cutting flesh in the gray robe, the strong man's eyes flashed with a shiny light, and he smiled and thanked:

"Then we're welcome!"

In his eyes, who is proficient in swordsmanship, the other party's sword technique obviously has superb skills in it, and even contains some truths that he cannot comprehend, as if it is natural and smooth. Without a little bone stuck, this is obviously not something that ordinary adventurers can do.

The other team members did not pay attention to this and were very surprised by their captain's actions. You should know that the usual captain would not accept the kindness of strange strangers so easily.

Only the short young man grinned and was the first to come forward, took out his short knife and cut off a fat and tender hind legs. He stuffed his mouth into his mouth, and said vaguely while swallowing:

"Taste! Yes! So delicious..."

The other people, led by the captain, sat around the stove and cut the barbecue from most of the remaining roasted lambs for consumption.

Not only short young people, but others are also conquered by the aroma of medium but not greasy, tender and delicious, and the taste of barbecue that is fat and thin. This may be the most delicious food they have eaten in their lifetime!

So even though it was in front of strangers, except for the cold-faced woman who was restrained, the other men didn't feel like they were open to their appetite and feasted.

At the end of my meal, my stomach had already swelled, but it still seemed that I was still feeling unsatisfied.

The pot of stewed broth cooked by the Adventurers team itself was no longer cared about at this time.

After a meal, the whole sheep was left with only a clean skeleton. The short young man fell to the ground, covering his stomach with a satisfied look on his face.

However, it was obvious that this guy was very curious about the gray-robed man who could make such delicious food and frequently looked at him. However, because the hood covered the gray-robed man's face, they could not see the face of the shadows clearly.

The strong man thanked the man on behalf of the team and said:

"Thank you for your food, this is probably the best food I've ever eaten!"

Gray Robe nodded slightly, then waved her hand. All the sheep bone residues in front of her disappeared.

Seeing this move, several adventurers all showed a surprised expression.

The strong man asked hesitantly:

"May I ask, are you a mage..."

The man in gray robe spoke and replied:

"good!"

The sound did not sound old, but the whole body was filled with a mysterious aura, as if there was an invisible fog covering the other person.

A mysterious or maybe young mage. Adventurer team immediately had such an impression in their hearts.

The man in gray robe then said something again.

"Are you adventurers coming out to do missions?"

"Yes, we are from the same team and are planning to go to the Ashes Forest in the west!"

The man in gray robe raised his head slightly when he heard this.

"Ash Forest?"

"I heard that it is a gathering place for undead creatures. It is more dangerous for the living, but there are a few rare materials growing there. I wonder if I can go with you?"

After hearing this, the strong man subconsciously spoke and agreed.

"Of course, we welcome it!"

However, after saying that, the other adventurers' faces became weird. You should know that their team is good at being good, but they can create a reputation in the nearby areas. It is not entirely due to their own strength, but also their cautious style.

But today I didn't know what happened. I agreed without thinking about what the other party said.

In fact, the adventure captain himself was also very surprised. You should know that as a leader of a team and the designer of the task plan, his mind was much more delicate and meticulous than his rough appearance. However, today I don’t know what was wrong with him, but he actually felt extremely trusting about the other party, so he blurted out his promise.

Could this be the mage's mysterious magical ability that can actually affect other people's minds?

The strong man was a little scared for a moment, but also felt a little curious.

Fortunately, the mage did not come for them purposely. They should have met by chance. They didn't seem to be malicious, they just wanted to go there simply.

If this mage really had bad intentions, with his strength and mystery, it would not take much effort to deal with them, so there would be no need to do so.

Thinking of this in my heart, the strong man became much more stable.

Other adventurers trusted the captain's decision very much, so they did not refute anything.

Although this mage who joined the team temporarily seems very mysterious, people like mages are not all mysterious. As long as this guy has the powerful means of those mages and does not have bad intentions!
