Chapter 828: Don't go to the northwest mountains

The journey westward reached its ninth day!

Robb and his group had been surrounded by rain all along the way. There were heavy downpours, drizzles, and light showers like fine threads. If it weren't for magic, it would have been impossible to endure nine days in such a rainforest. Robb was now deeply experiencing the hardships that humans had faced when they developed the rainforest.

At noon that day, the group arrived at a small Maya village hidden deep in the jungle. The village appeared inconspicuous and peaceful, but now it lay in ruins.

All the thatched houses in the village had been burned, not by ordinary fire because it had been raining continuously, making it difficult for fire to burn anything. The village had been destroyed by fire magic, and even residual particles of fire magic lingered in the air, not completely dissipated.

The ground was littered with corpsesmen, women, the elderly, and children. In the eyes of the People of Norma, the Maya people had no rights. They were considered inferior to livestock, so when they killed the Maya people, they showed no mercy. Regardless of age, everyone fell to their blades without any psychological burden.

When the scout eagle warriors led Robb and his group to this village, their faces were filled with anger, and their eyes burned with fury. Robb sighed lightly, waved his hand, and countless white feathers descended from the sky, scattering all around.

Soon, the lifeless Maya people began to rise from the ground.

These people were confused after experiencing death and resurrection. They couldn't figure out the situation and anxiously searched for weapons when they saw Robb and his group.

Robb's beautiful translator, White Deer, quickly spoke up, "Don't panic! We are not the same as those who harmed you."

She explained along with several eagle warriors, and it took a while to calm the Maya people in the village.

However, it took even longer to find out what had happened to them.

White Deer turned to Robb and said, "Yesterday, before sunset, the People of Norma arrived here and discovered this Maya village. The eagle warriors in the village clashed with the People of Norma to protect the village, and as a result, the People of Norma killed them all. Men, women, children, not a single one was spared."

Robb shook his head. "How cruel!"Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om

After a brief pause, White Deer turned around and said to Robb, "Is that all? Don't you want to ask about the number of People of Norma or something?"

White Deer finished translating the entire conversation and also learned what the old sorcerer had said. She climbed up a tree and gazed to the northwest, then descended to the ground and said to Robb, "There is indeed a mountain range in the northwest. It has a majestic presence, covering a vast area that extends as far as the eye can see. The old sorcerer said there are giant creatures inside, so we can only go around the edge of this mountain..."

Robb laughed, "Okay, decision made! We're going into the mountains."

White Deer almost fell to the ground, "Hey? Godfather! Didn't you hear the old sorcerers advice just now?"

"I heard it, and I even thanked him for providing valuable information," Robb chuckled. "According to the knowledge of exploration, the more dangerous a place is, the rarer the minerals it may contain."

White Deer: "..."

Robb clapped his hands and said to everyone, "Let's go, get ready to enter the mountains. But scouts, don't spread out. Everyone should stick together and move with me."

In this rainforest, their vision was obstructed by the jungle, rendering Robb's scouting skills useless. They had to rely on the eagle warriors to constantly scout and bring back information. Therefore, on this expedition, the eagle warriors had been staying far away from the group, patrolling the surrounding jungle and acting as sentinels. However, as they were about to enter a dangerous mountain range, Robb couldn't let them go out anymore. If they were ambushed by some monster in the jungle and swallowed whole, Robb wouldn't even know about it, rendering resurrection magic useless.

Therefore, he had to call back all the scouts, which meant the group would be advancing blindly.

But Robb didn't mind. If they had to proceed in darkness, then so be it. Unless they stumbled into the lair of the black dragon, there was nothing to fear.
