MTL - Another World Sandbox Gamer-Chapter 44 Fernand's trail
Although he felt that Ren's joining would be very easy to eliminate goblins with tactics, several noble ladies did not agree with his idea of joining the team.
After all, I didn't know much about him, and the team was all women, so it was always inconvenient for a man to join suddenly.
On the contrary, because he was wearing a set of heavy armor and could run so fast, every time he shot the goblin with one arrow, he was a novice in adventure with such a powerful combat power, and he felt something was wrong.
So after Ren came over, he took advantage of the rest to recover and asked him why he had so much strength, ran so fast, and why he could easily kill goblins in seconds.
Of course Ren couldn't tell them, I have a system to kill monsters and upgrade them, add points to strength and agility, and have attributes that are far beyond ordinary people. It can't be said that because of high agility and more damage from long-range weapons, it can kill goblins in seconds.
He just used "the physical quality of men is stronger than that of women" to fool the past.
Although they were not very satisfied with his answer, the five noble ladies did not ask any further questions.
Because they fought together to destroy the goblins, Charlotte and the others had a slightly better attitude towards him, at least they didn't rush people like before.
Ren took the opportunity to sit down to rest and chat casually with them.
After chatting for a while, he deliberately said: "I just walked out of the sand sea of despair, and was attacked by the sea clan when I was on a boat in Moon Lake. Fortunately, the reinforcements arrived to repel it. Recently, I heard that the sea clan has repeatedly Attacking near the coast, I feel that something big will happen in Storm City."
Kristin heard this and said, "Although the sea clan is strong, it is very unwise to fight our kingdom of Nangris!"
"Yeah!" Linda nodded, "I really can't figure it out. In the past, the Sea Clan had trade relations with us in Storm City, and the relationship was okay. Why did they suddenly turn their face?"
"Who knows?" Monica shrugged and spread her hands, "Maybe this marine race is inherently aggressive!"
Seeing them participating in the conversation, Ren pretended to be casual: "Why can't we live together peacefully? I finally came to Storm City, I just want to live in peace. I just escaped from the war between Herman and Mandela, and I have to experience it again. The war between Nangris and the Sea Clan? How annoying!"
"Who said no?" Charlotte showed a rare sigh, "I also hate war."
"I heard a rumor recently," Ren lowered his voice and pretended to be mysterious, "Someone said that the princess of the sea clan has disappeared! The reason why the sea clan attacked humans everywhere may be related to this incident."
"Who did you listen to?" Christine asked curiously.
All four of Charlotte were also staring at him.
"I just heard it by accident in the lounge of the association hall. I don't know if it's true or not." Ren shrugged, "But I don't think the sea clan will attack humans for no reason."
"There is no basis and no evidence, how can such a thing be said casually?" Charlotte regained her indifference.
"That's right! The disappearance of the Princess of the Sea Clan has nothing to do with us humans?" Christine shook her head directly, "You said it was a rumor too! Most of the rumors are false."
"Maybe!" said Ren, "but some time ago, on my way to the forest of monsters, I saw the Storm City army who claimed to be loyal to Baron Andrew. They pulled a strange water truck and said they were going to the King City. After that, it seemed that I lost something, and I interrogated me and the coachman, although I didn’t know what they were looking for, thinking about it now, wouldn’t it be the missing Princess of the Sea Clan in the water cart?”
"Andrew, Princess of the Sea Clan? What are you kidding?" Christine didn't believe it at all, "A little baron, has such courage?"
"Yeah!" Ren said, "I must have thought too much. I'm not afraid of a few jokes. At that time, I was still thinking about the plot. I felt that there was a big man in the capital who asked Baron Andrew to do this and deliberately arrest the princess of the sea clan. As a hostage, in order to coerce the sea clan to be obedient and control this clan. That's true, it's good for success, the Kingdom of Nangris can subdue the sea clan and have more powerful power. If it fails, it will be Storm City and other coastal cities that will be unlucky. The sea clan is constantly harassing, and may even start a war. After finally finding a place to live, they may have to escape and go to other countries, which is very troublesome."
After listening to him, several noble ladies were thoughtful.
After chatting for a while, Christine asked him, "We're going to continue searching for Fernand, won't you leave?"
Ren replied: "My mission lasts for a month, so I'm not in a hurry. I have a rare opportunity, and I want to learn Miss Cara's superb tracking skills. I promise that it won't affect your mission. Let me, a novice adventurer, learn more. Bar!"
"Okay!" Kara nodded immediately, "As a senior, it's right to teach newcomers."
The four of Charlotte looked at her speechlessly, thinking that you are going to teach new people? Actually want him to help track Fernand?
They have long seen that, as an archer, Ren's tracking skills are far superior to Kara.
Although Carla is still trustworthy, even if there is no Renn, it will take a long time to find the trace left by Fernand~www.novelbuddy.com~, unlike Renn who can easily point out the direction every time.
After thinking about it, I felt that there was a goblin lair nearby, so I wasted time searching slowly, and there was a high probability of fighting again.
It's better to hurry up and find Fernand before disturbing more goblins.
If the missing farmer is still alive, racing against time is the key to saving his life!
Thinking of this, I temporarily agree.
So Ren continued to follow the five noble ladies, nominally learning tracking techniques, but in fact he provided clues without leaving a trace, leading them to quickly search for the traces left by Fernand.
When I came to a steep slope, in addition to Fernand's footprints, I also found traces of some kind of canine animal, including some shed animal hair.
After careful inspection, Kara said worriedly, "According to the footprints left at the scene, it is inferred that Fernand encountered a pack of wolves here and should have fallen down the steep slope!"
"He won't be eaten by the wolves, right?" Monica frowned, "I don't want to go to the wolf's den to search for bones, it's too dangerous!"
Everyone went down the slope. After careful investigation, Kara said to everyone: "There are some dried bloodstains here. Besides Fernand and the wolves, there are more human footprints. There are signs of fighting at the scene, there may be Two - Fernand was taken by the wolves and became their food; or rescued and escaped!"
"There are wheel and horseshoe marks here," Ren reminded. "There are also footprints similar to Fernand's. I think the latter is more likely!"
The noble ladies hurried over and nodded to each other after checking the trail.
"It looks like the carriage is heading towards Glory Town in the south!" Charlotte thought for a while and said to her teammates, "Let's hurry up and reach Glory Town before dusk."
