Chapter 1546: Seven-Day Journey

"With the identity determined, our story begins."

The god said to everyone with a smile, and Xia De said softly:

"I still don't quite understand what we are actually going to do."

"Traveler under the moon, please don't be anxious. The night is already deep, let's tell it slowly. First, introduce the identities of the five travelers—the old horse that knows the way has the fastest speed, but it is old and its endurance is very poor."

The old knight Zafir Yellen knew this was talking about himself. Although he couldn't figure out what this meant, Xia De and the witch both knew that this meant the knight in the story ran the fastest but could not exercise for a long time.

"The colorful parrot can rely on flying to avoid attacks, but its gorgeous feathers are also the easiest to be targeted by enemies."

The bard holding his card subconsciously wanted to look up, but the "painful experience" just now reminded him not to do so. The role of the bard Dika Enriques could fly, which was a very convenient ability, but the character's negative trait was that once a battle occurred, it would be prioritized by the enemy.

In this way, everyone simultaneously possessed one positive trait and one negative trait.

"The noble unicorn can be immune to the invasion of evil forces, but the unicorn's strange attraction will cause more trouble for your journey."

Witch Arera Andreana curled her lips slightly, looking very proud. Xia De noticed that her role was the only one among all animal roles that possessed supernatural power. Her positive trait was powerful, but her negative trait seemed to directly affect everyone else.

"As for that loyal hunting dog, she has an excellent sense of smell that can discover various scents, but her small size determines that she cannot fight."

The maid Clara pursed her lips and looked down at the card she was holding. Her role was a typical auxiliary role, and "cannot fight" itself meant that there would definitely be forced battle scenes.

"Oh, and that traveler under the moon."

The god finally mentioned Xia De, and after sitting with his back to the bonfire behind him, he paused and said:

"The traveler is destined to be illuminated by the silver moon, so no matter when your team is, the field of vision will not disappear completely, and good things may happen at night because of this. But the peculiar traveler is obviously different from other travelers, and others will notice this during the journey."

Xia De's positive trait should be related to his "Moon Shadow" state, while the negative trait was somewhat vague, and Xia De did not know what this would lead to.

"Please relax, because the story of the journey has begun. Travelers gathered by accident go to a distant place together. You agreed to set off and stay together, so any member who leaves the team during the journey will be judged as dead."

The god said to them:

"And the story of the journey will end on the seventh day of this trip. Therefore, when the trip comes to the night of the seventh day, the small story by the bonfire of this boring night will also end."

This sentence was easy to understand, and neither Xia De nor anyone else asked questions.

"In the boundless dense forest, the old horse, parrot, unicorn, loyal dog, and the traveler under the moon gathered in the small camp, and after a dreamless night of rest, decided to set off together to the distance. A good rest makes your physical strength abundant and your spirit refreshed, and today's journey will be less strenuous because of this. The first day begins—"

Accompanied by the god's narration, in the foggy dense forest around, there really appeared the sounds of animals and humans walking, and birds flapping their wings. All five people looked around, and the sound was unusually clear, as if something was really wandering on the edge of the bonfire's light.

"Next, the events encountered today will be determined."

The god pointed to the stack of cards with a smile. Xia De looked at the witch, and the witch looked at her maid. So the girl in the black dress reached out and drew a card and showed it to everyone. On the card, there was a small house made of candy:

"The journey in the forest makes physical strength drop very quickly. Near noon, the travelers felt hungry. You planned to camp and rest, but the loyal dog in the team smelled the sweetness of candy at this moment. You followed the smell and found a candy house in the forest, and the owner of the house, an old witch with silver-white hair, stood at the door with a smile, inviting you to enter the house and have lunch with her."

As the god's voice fell, the smell of candy really drifted in the rotten-smelling forest. Xia De had just woken up in the morning and was not very hungry, but the other four had not eaten for a long time. Even though they had eaten some food Xia De took out just now, this did not prevent them from still feeling hungry at this moment.

The bard, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, had his stomach make a loud sound directly, which made the man who considered himself upper-class quite ashamed.

"I really feel that something is watching us. There really is a relic, but it doesn't seem to be the true body."

The witch looked at the surrounding dense forest uneasily, whispering her discovery to Xia De. Xia De comforted her:

"According to my experience, as long as we don't leave this camp, everything is just happening in the story of the journey. Don't worry."

"But I have heard of things in similar stories, the relic 【Sweet Trap】."

The witch whispered, seeing Xia De's quite confident expression, she didn't know why she was infected by him, so she didn't worry anymore:

"Travelers should not enter that house, this is beyond doubt."

She said.

"What do you think?"

Xia De asked the other three. The three people clearly didn't expect that they would have the opportunity to express their views. Seeing that the witch did not object, the old knight whose side face was reflected red by the bonfire said first:

"Cannot enter. Breaking into strange places, this one time is enough."

The bard had the same view:

"I have read many fairy tales, this is clearly some kind of trap that can make people lose their reason. Sweet candy itself is a metaphor."

The maid's answer was quite short:

"The lady is right."

"Then we will take a detour and leave, and then camp at a safe location."

Xia De then told the god the decision of the crowd. The traveler with a backpack beside him nodded and continued to tell their story in a low voice:

"The vigilant travelers declined the invitation of the old witch. They did not step into the range of the candy house. But when they decided to leave, the old witch in the house made a request to them: Since you are not willing to have lunch with me, then please leave the noble unicorn to accompany me. As a reward, I can give one of you the ability to turn any object into candy."

"Ah?"

Hearing this, the witch was startled, and then realized that this was the effect of her negative trait being triggered, and it appeared in the first travel plot. She immediately looked at Xia De, and Xia De gave her a reassuring look:

"We cannot leave our companions behind, the unicorn is very important to our team. If we lose a companion so easily at the beginning of the journey, then no one should think about reaching the finish line next."

Xia De said to his companions, and the men and the maid nodded in agreement.

The traveler telling the story accepted his approach:

"The travelers refused the request of the old witch in the candy house. The angered old witch angrily wanted to keep you all. Entering the battle segment, colorful rays of light shot from the witch's hand, aiming at the parrot with gorgeous feathers flying in the sky. Others can choose to leave immediately, or join the battle."

"Ah?"

Now it was the bard's turn to be surprised, but compared to the confident witch, he was very worried holding his card at this moment. Fortunately, Xia De still insisted on his view just now and would not give up his companions because he was a "useless" man.

"No need to fight. I want to offer treasures to the old witch so that she can let us go."

Witch Arera Andreana said, and Xia De also looked at her. The latter shook her hair:

"Why are you so surprised? Since I came here voluntarily, how could I have no preparations? Man, don't underestimate any witch."

Saying this, she took out a ruby from her skirt pocket. That was not an ordinary ruby. The fiery red flame was jumping inside the gem. Xia De even vaguely felt that the "Primordial Fire" in his body was craving to devour this flame. But unfortunately, Xia De did not have the ability to devour flames, and Sister Daelin was clearly not at this point in time.

"This is 'Gem Fire', a flame born in natural gems with a probability of one in ten million. This pure flame can give witches with corresponding talents the ability to use gems to replace spellcasting materials. Money cannot measure its value at all."

Although saying this, Miss Andreana still decided to offer the gem. This should be the hidden rule of this travel story because the god accepted it. While the gem in the witch's hand flew into the bonfire behind the god automatically and disappeared in the flames, the story ushered in a corresponding turning point:

"The gem that fell from the unicorn's luggage was favored by the old witch of the candy house. She accepted the unicorn's offering and decided to let you go. After the parrot was hit by the colorful rays, its wings that turned into candy were restored. And before you left, the old witch challenged you: I have three candies, one contains fatal poison, one can make you full, and one can give you the ability to turn any food into candy; one person can choose at most one, and each one must be chosen by someone. Of course, you can also leave now, no need to pay attention to my challenge as the old witch of the candy house."

The god looked at the five people with a smile, waiting for their decision. Xia De and Witch Andreana looked at each other:

"I want to try, my resistance to poison is very strong."

This was the confidence after that serious illness.
