Chapter 53
"Dan, didn't you say you found some clues before? How much longer do you think this mission will take?"

"Optimistically, it should take about a week."

"Then I will give you half a month. The focus of this operation is to find out the truth, not to kill the enemy. So no matter whether it is successful or not, you must return to the town safely, okay?"

"Look what you said - it's as if I'm being controlled by the organizers and would rather die if I don't complete the task?"

"you know what I mean."

"I understand, my lord, I will try my best to ensure safety."

The personnel and general plan of the pursuit team were finalized in this way.

As the leader of this team, Dan also shoulders the important task of tracing the traces.

Alan of the War School is the main combat force.

Lindsay and Ju are responsible for assisting and supplementing the battle.

This matter should not be delayed for too long.

So they finalized the general plan and said goodbye to An Rui. The group prepared dry food and water and headed directly to the south of the town.

But before they could leave the town, a familiar shout came from behind.

"Lindsay, wait!"

Lindsay turned around and looked.

It was the young craftsman Joel, running towards them out of breath.

He held a gray cloth bag tightly with both arms and looked directly at Lindsay who was about to leave town.

Lindsay nodded to her companion in understanding, and then hurriedly greeted her:

"Joel, what's wrong?"

"I, I heard you were leaving." Joel ran over in a hurry.After being stopped by Lindsay, he immediately handed the bag in his hand to Lindsay, then took a breath and explained, "So, I think I can send these things to you first."

Lindsay untied the rope from the bag and opened it to take a look.

Inside was a wooden bow, three arrows with pitch-black arrows, and a long dagger with a cold light shining on its edge.

Seeing Lindsay opening the bag, a proud smile immediately appeared on Joel's face:
"This is the best weapon I can make with my current skills."

"First of all, I made the center of gravity and shape of this long knife based on Master Anrui's weapon. If you follow him to learn combat skills, you must be most accustomed to using this weapon. And the arrowheads of these three arrows, I asked for them from the old man. A bit of antimony steel, which is an ore that has been affected by the source of matter. If an awakened person or monster is shot by this arrow, the power in the body will be affected immediately."

As Joel explained, Lindsay also started [Simulated Management] for inspection.

[Weapon: long dagger]

[A high-quality cold weapon carefully adjusted by craftsmen. The center of gravity and shape are carefully polished, and it has excellent effects when it suits specific tactics. 】

[Good quality weapons, easy to sell everywhere. 】

[Arrow: Antimony Arrow]

[Arrows made of antimony steel modulated by craftsmen will disturb the source of the target when hit; the arrow shaft is made of oak wood, which has high density and strength, ensuring the excellent penetration and stability of the arrow. 】

[Extremely excellent special arrows, someone is willing to buy them at a high price. 】

After inspecting these two pieces of Joel's meticulous work, Lindsay's eyes naturally fell on the last wooden bow.

Joel aptly introduces:

"This bow is made of oak, and the bow string is made of fine beef tendon. The entire bow has reached the best condition in terms of elasticity and hardness. It is my proud work!"

[Weapon: Oak Bow]

[The top-grade wooden bow carefully crafted by craftsmen has a comfortable hand feel, moderate weight, and strong and durable material that can accompany the user for a long time. 】

【High quality weapons, easy to sell to hunters or soldiers. 】

As expected, these three things were carefully crafted by Joel.

Lindsay put these things away gratefully and solemnly, and thanked Joel at the same time:
"Joel, thank you." "I don't have anything on me right now..."

As soon as he heard the beginning of Lindsay's words, Joel realized that he was going to mention the reward, so Joel waved his hand to interrupt Lindsay's next words:

"Okay, is this still something we need to talk about in our relationship?"

"If you dare to say what's behind, don't come to me for help in the future."

Lindsay shook her head with a wry smile, while Joel leaned forward and whispered in a voice that only the other two could hear:
"And don't you want to go to Montenegro?"

"If you are going to do such a big thing in the future, why don't you try to use something good now? Just take it with confidence!"

Speaking of this, Lindsay suddenly remembered that she had something that she had not yet dealt with.

He may have to leave town for a few days this time, but there are still things that need to be taken care of in the plant cabin that Finn entrusted to him!
Lindsay quickly spoke to Joel:
"By the way, is there anything else I can ask you to help me with?"

"Help." Hearing this, Joel showed a happy smile on his face, "You just say it, as long as I can do it, I promise to help you!"

Lindsay then explained:
"I may have to leave for a long time this time."

"In the meantime, I would like to ask you to help me take care of the plants in the cabin. The watering time and care methods are written in the notes."

Joel patted his chest confidently:

"Isn't it just taking care of plants? This must be no problem!"

"Lindsay, it's time for us to go!"

At this moment, Dan in front signaled Lindsay not to delay further.

Lindsay had no choice but to nod her thanks to Joel again and turned around to catch up with the team.

Behind him, Joel watched his friend leave.

When he was about to go to Finn's cabin to find the notes and check the plants, Joel suddenly discovered something:

"Wait! Why didn't Lindsay bring the backpack I made for him?"

"Is there something wrong with my design?"

……

On the other side, a group of people followed Dan into the forest.

They first came to the location where Lindsay had killed three ice badgers. Dan's tracking actually ended here last night.

But before returning, the huntress carved a mark on the tree.

Check it out in daylight now.

The direction the mark points to is the southeast direction of the forest.

After arriving here, Dan confirmed it again.After ensuring that her judgment was correct, she led Lindsay and the three of them to continue walking through the forest.

Walking along the path in the forest, the huntress looked firm and confident.

Lindsay saw this scene clearly.

When he thought about his inability to track down the mastermind behind the scenes, he was naturally curious:
"Dan, how did you find out the connection between the mastermind and the ice badger?"

The female hunter explained very generously:
"It's very simple. This is my ability after the fourth sublimation of my skills. In front of ordinary people, animals are just animals, but in my opinion, they have an indelible odor on them."

When Ju heard this, he couldn't suppress his surprise:

"Mom! You...don't you only have the third stage of ability? When did you advance to the fourth stage!"

"Excellent adventurers always keep some trump cards for themselves." Dan looked at his son with disdain and replied in a matter-of-fact tone, "Besides, we are only from this town, so I can't show off. Means nothing."

Under Ju's confused expression, Dan continued to explain the details of her tracking method to Lindsay:
"If your senses are blessed with hunter skills, you will find that they often emit a scent that lasts for a long time and is difficult for ordinary people to detect. Along with states of courtship, fear, joy, excitement, and anger, these scents also contain information It’s different.”

"And my method is to follow the smell they left behind and find the location where they came. As long as the mastermind behind the scenes has come into contact with these ice badgers, they will definitely not be able to escape!"
