Allen consciously drew closer to Regis and the others. Regis took other people's money and felt a little grateful. He no longer resented communicating with the other party, especially when the other party was a warrior as powerful as him.

"Brother, you said that you encountered a group of powerful kobolds on the road ahead and were forced to retreat. So what are you going to do next?"

After some exchanges, Allen asked curiously.

"This matter is not something we should consider. Director Feili must have a plan."

Regis strictly adhered to his duties as a mercenary and did not reveal any useful information.

"Then can you tell me how powerful this kobold is? How does it compare to yesterday's jackal?"

Allen didn't take Regis' perfunctory approach seriously. In fact, what he wanted to inquire more about was the news about the kobolds. For the Green Field Tribe who occupied the territory of the Bonefire Jackals, they were likely to be their biggest opponents in the future. There will be kobolds next to it, and Allen has to prepare for a rainy day.

As for the other tribes that were adjacent to the Green Field Tribe in the past, most of them were equally powerful as the Green Field Tribe. This is why everyone has been living in peace and harmony over the years.

"Gnolls? If we add the previous Gnoll leaders and the priests from last night, we might be able to barely deal with the kobold gang. Just the kobold warriors we met, there were more than sixty people, including Including a kobold warlock and an advanced warrior. I am not pouring cold water on you, clan leader, and looking down on you. If this group of kobolds really wants to harm you, I am afraid that with your strength, you really will not be able to resist. When the time comes, clan leader, you Better run."

As long as it didn't involve the caravan, Regis didn't mind repaying Allen's kindness last night and telling him the information he knew about the kobolds.

"oh."

Allen's joy of just occupying the Bonefire territory gradually dissipated, and his mood became a little heavy, but he soon returned to normal. Wilderness people were already used to danger, so much so that they would not choke or stop eating because of it.

"Hi, Director Feili, good morning."

After taking stock of last night's harvest, Fili was about to talk to Regis about setting off and continuing the trip, but he was accidentally discovered by Allen, who greeted him in a grand manner.

"Good morning, Chief Allen."

Fili also replied kindly.

"What, do you have anything to do with our Captain Regis?"

"What's the matter? I'm just chatting with them."

Allen laughed and led him gently.

Seeing that Fili had something to discuss with Regis, Allen shamelessly refused to leave, which made Fili feel helpless. Finally, after some polite greetings, he brought the topic back to business.

"Captain Regis, we have to rush to the Elf Kingdom as soon as possible. There is too much time wasted along the way. Adding in the time of selling goods and returning, I am afraid it will take at least four and a half months. In addition to the possible accidents on the road, we The plan to rush back to the principality within five months is probably a bit urgent."

"kindness."

Regis nodded.

"But the kobold gang blocking the road ahead is very different from the map you collected and made. It is really dangerous to force through with our strength. I wonder if you, supervisor, have other roads to avoid the kobold territory ahead. ?”

"When I first made the wilderness map, I never thought that in just over ten years, the population of kobolds, which originally numbered only about 70, would expand to what it is today. Otherwise, I would not be taking the path I am taking now."

The wilderness is changing all the time. In a remote area like the Green Field Tribe, which is located in the northwest corner of the wilderness, usually a few businessmen pass by, let alone someone who comes here to make a power map. The Flash Silver Chamber of Commerce was also forced to have no choice. It happened to have a wilderness map collected by the previous president more than ten years ago, so it took the risk to plan this adventure. Who would have thought that the road ahead would be smooth sailing, and they were about to reach their destination. Suddenly, accidents happened one after another, and each one was more difficult than the last.

"So I think we should go around the kobold's territory and pass between the gnolls and ogres here. But this will require a large circle and take more time."

"Have you ever thought about it, supervisor? Now that the kobolds have grown so strong, if the jackal and ogre camps in the map logo still exist, what kind of strength will they have if they can confront the kobold forces?"

"And looking at the signs on this map, after passing the kobold territory, there is a desert area without fresh water resources. This means that as long as you find a way to get past the kobold level, you may encounter danger later. smaller."

Regis started from reality and reminded Fili of a possibility.

"this……"

Fili frowned in distress. Regis's analysis was not unreasonable. The Gnoll tribe they had just wiped out was a clear proof. If it weren't for the people of the Bonefire tribe who divided the main team into two groups, Being divided and destroyed by Allen, Regis and the others, it is impossible to say that the existence of the Jackal tribe alone may cause great trouble to the caravan.

"What Captain Nayi means is that we find a way to pass through the kobold's territory?"

"This is just my personal suggestion for reference only. As for your final decision, our Eagle Mercenary Group will do our best to escort you to your destination."

Regis's suggestion disrupted Fili's thinking. Originally, he was more inclined to take a detour, but after being reminded by the other party, he felt a little embarrassed.

"It's a pity that we are not strong enough now. The noses of the kobolds are too sensitive. It is almost impossible to sneak past their territory quietly."

Fili looked up at Regis, trying to get some more advice from him, but he happened to see the other person's eyes turning to Allen, who was staring at the parchment map carefully. Fili suddenly felt as if he had received a hint: That's right. , their caravan is not strong enough, but with the help of the bugbears who are in the friendly period, it is not that difficult to survive the kobold territory with careful planning.

But how to persuade this somewhat shrewd bugbear, Fili had to plan a lot. After all, most of the methods used by human society were ineffective against the wilderness natives. The only food and weapons that might be able to impress the opponent are not available with the current reserves of the caravan, which makes it a bit tricky.

"Hey, the clan leader seems to be very interested in this map of ours. How about I have someone print one for you?"

However, when looking at Allen, Fili was not without gains. Seeing that the other person had not taken away his gaze from the map, he couldn't help but interrupt the other person's attention in a friendly way with a bit of a win-win approach.

"This is really good stuff. Director Feili is so generous, so I won't be polite."

Allen was not polite either. He had lived in the wilderness since he was a child. Only now did he discover that their wilderness was so wonderful and there were so many tribes.

"No problem, no problem. I'll have someone prepare the parchment for rubbing."

Fearing that Allen was not interested, Feili quickly agreed and ordered people to get ready.
