Three days later, Bai Mu and the Southern Hero crossed the desolate snowfield and arrived at a road with road signs.
Their rest ti was very little; they almost didn't stop along the way. Occasionally, they would encounter a few magic beasts attracted by the corpses on the road. The vast majority were killed by the Southern Hero in two or three sword strikes. As for so relatively weak magic beasts, the Southern Hero handed them over to Bai Mu for practice.
The Hero guided him with words from the side, telling him the magic beasts' next movents and moves using precognition magic. He, on the other hand, used the purest martial arts, trying to fight these magic beasts.
Bai Mu changed all his weapons, switching to an attribute-less katana to hone his skills.
The Southern Hero believed that his muscle strength in this world could already reach the level of a beginner warrior approaching an interdiate warrior.
Bai Mu's Strength attribute was at 33 points. This included the Little Pig Doll, Lord's Pendant, Titles, the permanent attribute item boosts obtained in the recent few scripts, as well as the bonus from leveling the Secret Sword Art to max level. Placed in the real world, this was already a superhuman attribute value. He could easily lift a heavy motorcycle like a Harley, flip over a small sedan, and engage in hand-to-hand combat with apex predators like bears.
In terms of pure strength, the difference between him and the warriors of this world wasn't big. However, the Hero said his physique seed a bit too weak. Warriors usually had to bear the brunt of frontal attacks in a team, and on the Northern Plateau, a qualified vanguard warrior was extrely resistant to beating. Even if hit head-on by weapons like swords, it was very difficult to cut their bodies apart. Powerful warriors could even engage in hand-to-hand combat directly with dragons.
The difference between Bai Mu and them lay in this point. The base defense of warriors in this world was already very terrifying. This was probably not sothing that could be made up for by training, but a gap caused by race and environnt.
The air in this world was filled with Mana, so creatures growing up here would receive varying degrees of enhancent.
If Bai Mu had to give a danger rating to this world, he felt the upper limit could be rated S-grade. According to what the Hero said, that Demon Race with precognition magic could even foresee things a thousand years later. And that great elf mage Serie, no one even knew how long she had lived; it might be thousands or tens of thousands of years. Legend had it that she knew all the magic in the world, and as long as one was accepted as her disciple, they could request any kind of magic they wanted from her—she was simply a character like a wishing machine.
Those famous Demon Race were all monsters who had lived for hundreds or thousands of years as well.
With Bai Mu's current level, even if he used all his fortune, if he encountered one of them, it would only be a dead end.
The Southern Hero, of course, was also a mber of the "monsters". The longer he interacted with the Hero and the deeper his understanding grew, the more Bai Mu realized this fact. Therefore, he honed his martial arts and foundation very seriously according to the Hero's guidance.
Over these three days, he indeed suffered injuries quite a number of tis during battles. The magic beasts of the Northern Plateau were indeed very strong. If he didn't use skills or take out those bizarre Paradise items, he could hardly gain any advantage in a head-on fight, and was at a disadvantage most of the ti.
However, because he had a super escort by his side, he won all these battles. The Southern Hero acutely picked out a few magic beasts that were evenly matched with him. It could only be said that actual combat led to the fastest improvent. After a few battles, his sword-holding posture and force exertion posture were all adjusted. But every ti he managed to kill a magic beast, he basically still relied on a life-risking combat style of trading injuries to be the last one standing.
Fortunately, he had reserved enough Healing Ointnt, so he could trade his health bar for experience without any worries.
"You've really improved at a godly speed in terms of sword skills, sir. To think you could reach such a level in just five days," the Southern Hero said. "However, the effect of those healing ointnts of yours is so good, they must be relatively precious items, right? Using them so frequently, wouldn't it be too extravagant?"
"It's not anything particularly valuable," Bai Mu said. "In about an hour, I can make 300 portions. The materials used are actually very cheap."
"If you're willing to sell these ointnts, there would definitely be a huge market for them," the Southern Hero said. "The effect of this kind of ointnt is already comparable to interdiate healing magic. For those warriors without a Cleric in their team, it is absolutely a must-have item."
"If I plan to find a place to settle down, being a pharmacist would be a good choice," Bai Mu said. "It's a pity I can't stay on this land for a very long period of ti."
"That is true." The Southern Hero nodded, stopping at a fork in the road.
"We take this road." The Southern Hero pointed to the fork on the right. "The people from the Norm rchant Guild are just ahead. They were attacked by a small dragon pack. Although they repelled the dragon pack, the Cleric in the team was killed by a dragon, and there are too many injured people. The horses and carriages storing food were also taken away as food by the dragon pack. They can only set up camp where they are, unable to move. It won't be long before the dragon pack turns back, and by then, their entire army will be wiped out."
Bai Mu nodded, patted Tu Ya's neck, fed it a handful of dry hay, and simultaneously controlled the magic beast corpse to walk towards that road. They had already arrived at a place with more human activity; road signs, field ridges, and even fences for animal husbandry—human-made structures similar to these were everywhere.
"When the grass grows out in the sumr, herders will co nearby to graze. At that ti, there will also be many lively festivals," the Southern Hero said. "However, due to the severe cold and the war, the herders have all migrated to safer places."
After walking for a distance, Bai Mu saw stationed tents by the roadside. Warriors wearing armor and holding longswords were standing guard there. Seeing the sleds and the magic beast corpse walking with a weird posture, the other party appeared extrely nervous. But when the Southern Hero stepped forward, their expressions relaxed a lot at once, turning into pleasant surprise; it seed they recognized this Hero.
"Leave the negotiation work to ," the Southern Hero said. "Thank you for the hard work of escorting the villagers all the way here with , sir. I'll have my friend arrange a resting place for you. As for that dragon pack, I'll also find so ti to go and eliminate them."
Bai Mu said, "If there are many injured people, perhaps I can provide so help."
"Is it that kind of ointnt?" the Southern Hero asked.
Bai Mu nodded: "The ointnt is one aspect. In addition, I also have so healing thods myself."
Saying so, Bai Mu changed his title, equipping 'Savior'. An active skill 'Ergency Treatnt' imdiately appeared in his skill column.
