After returning to the camp, Cretan hunting has not returned yet.
Allen wasn't in a hurry. After all, he was looking for a specific target this time, so it probably wouldn't be that easy.
When Shorty Rod saw Allen coming back, he immediately ran to Allen and respectfully presented the animal skin scroll to Allen.
"Sir, the messenger map is finished."
"Well, take him to my room."
Allen took the map and gave instructions before returning to the cabin.
"I'll do it right now, sir!"
Rhodes responded loudly and ran all the way to the camp where the messenger was imprisoned.
Soon Rhodes brought people over, and Allen was looking at the animal skin map spread out on the table.
Whether in memory or for Allen now, this is the first time he has seen the entire Black Reef Island - the island is bigger than he imagined.
Allen couldn't estimate the area, but it was at least larger than the villages and towns in his hometown combined.
The entire island is like an oval-shaped pie lying horizontally in the east-west direction, with a large piece bitten off in the middle. The Gray Pigeon camp is located on the east corner, and the island owner's castle is northwest of the center of the island.
.
As for Lord Wright's manor, it is to the west of the castle.
After all, the messenger was not a cartographer, so the map was still a bit sloppy, and only the area from Wright Manor to Gray Dove Camp was relatively detailed.
As for other places, some only have simple routes, and some even only have a camp name.
Allen was not very satisfied with the result and asked: "Is this the map you drew?"
"That's all I know, sir."
The messenger hesitated, "I have never been to other places, I just saw them on the map and drew them based on my impressions..."
After listening to the messenger's explanation, Allen said no more, rolled up the map and put it aside.
It was precisely because the map was incomplete that Allen believed that the map drawn by the messenger was real. If all the places were marked in detail, there was a high probability that he had been deceived.
"Okay, you go down."
Allen waved his hand to take the messenger down.
"Wait, my lord,"
The messenger suddenly said: "The map has been drawn, please let me go! I promise not to inform Lord Wright!"
"Don't think about this matter. If you behave well, I can consider not killing you."
There are few people in the camp and there is no pressure for food. Allen doesn't mind raising this messenger.
Besides, if we really want to fight Wright in the future, this messenger will also serve as a guide.
"But……"
The messenger still wanted to speak, but Allen's face suddenly turned cold and he had to shut up.
Upon seeing this, Rhodes quickly stepped forward to pick up the messenger and led him out.
"Right,"
At this time, Allen spoke again and asked the messenger: "Did this short fat man say that he would take you out of the camp and go to Lord Wright?"
As soon as these words came out, Rhodes and the messenger's bodies suddenly froze.
Rhodes was the first to react, turned around and knelt down in front of Allen, and said loudly: "I will never do anything that harms your interests. Lord Allen, please rest assured, my loyalty to you is like the water of the endless sea.
It will never run out!"
The messenger was a little stunned, but shook his head instinctively.
But he soon realized that the trick of buying off the watchers wouldn't work.
"Why are you panicking? I'm just asking."
Allen smiled and said: "Okay, no need to kneel, let's get down."
But Rhodes, who was kneeling on the ground, understood that the leader in front of him was warning him.
He did not dare to neglect Allen's order and quickly left the cabin with the messenger.
"Oh, it's so tiring to deal with people."
After everyone left, Allen sighed helplessly.
Fasqi, who was standing next to him, saw Allen's appearance and said bluntly: "If Rhodes bothers you, my lord, I can kill him for you."
"No need for now."
Allen stopped Fasiqi's idea and said helplessly: "I always deal with people, and I can't kill them every time. I'm not a murderer."
After all, Allen is a human being, and he does not want to be completely mixed in the cold killing and blood.
Fasqi didn't speak, but nodded in understanding.
Allen looked at her cold face and couldn't help but said: "Don't keep such a cold face. Is there anything bothering you?"
"No." Faschi replied.
"Then smile, smile more."
Allen gave Fasiqi a demonstration, trying to change her cold expression.
Fasqi followed Allen's words and tried hard to learn to smile, but it turned out to be very stiff - uglier than crying.
Any expression is difficult for the temple guards, and smiling is the hardest.
Allen could only give up temporarily and comfort Fasiqi to take his time.
…
…
At noon, the woman in the camp grilled the fish. After just two bites, Allen found it tasteless.
But in order to fill his stomach, he still had to keep stuffing it.
This is not because he is being pretentious, but because the grilled fish has no other seasonings except saltiness.
As far as Allen knows, there are seasonings in the world of Auson, but not on Black Reef Island. They can only be purchased from cargo ships on the island, which are expensive and rare.
What's more, Alan missed the staple food so much.
He really couldn't stand the days of only soup and fish.
"It seems that even for food, I have to do something."
Allen looked at the castle on the map and couldn't help but think.
After lunch, we waited for a long time, and when the sun was about to set, Crete came back with four people.
These four people all carry prey on their backs, but there are only wild boars and rabbits inside - judging from their size alone, they cannot be used as mounts.
Allen looked at Crete and asked bluntly: "Didn't you find a suitable target?"
"I found it, Master, but it's too big to carry. And..."
Crete raised his eyes and scanned the other people in the camp, "You said that it is inconvenient in the camp."
"Okay, let's go."
Without staying longer, Allen followed Crete and left the camp.
…
…
The destination was not far from the camp. Under the leadership of Crete, Allen quickly saw the black-robed men waiting in the forest, and also vaguely saw the prey corpses at their feet.
"Is this a black wolf?"
With the help of his memory, Allen recognized the prey and immediately quickened his pace.
The black wolf looks similar to the gray wolf in Allen's previous life, but is much larger than the gray wolf.
An adult black wolf is more than three meters long, with a shoulder height of up to 1.5 meters. It is even taller than a lion. With its dark fur, it looks very ferocious and domineering.
Perhaps due to the influence of the black mist, the beasts in the Ausen world are extremely aggressive, especially the black wolf - just by looking at the fangs exposed in his mouth, you can tell that this guy is not easy to mess with.
Crete nodded and said: "I was lucky today. I met these three black wolves gathered together. I took the people and picked them up directly."
Except during the estrus period, adult black wolves do not always gather together. At most, they are in groups of three or five, and most of them are incompetent wolf cubs.
"Well, this black wolf's size is perfectly fine as a mount."
Looking at the black wolf corpse in front of him, Allen didn't hesitate. He squatted down and put his hand on a black wolf, giving the activation command.
[After testing, the target has not yet reached the activation standard.]
Allen was stunned and asked: "Huh? Why?"
[Weak target awareness, no obvious emotions, recommended as life essence material]
"this……"
Allen was a little speechless, but he did not give up. He stood up and came to the body of another black wolf.
[After testing, the target has not yet reached the activation standard.]
"No way?!"
Allen stared in disbelief, didn't it mean infinite activation?
He refused to give up and angrily walked to the third black wolf corpse and put his hand on it.
