"Don't those people want to enter the Black Forest? Let them go." A councillor dressed in hunting clothes in Dashu Town suddenly spoke up and suggested when everyone discussed that there was no definite result.

"Franco, are you crazy?" The other MPs sitting next to the MP immediately questioned: "Let them in, if they discover our secret..."

"Isn't that better?" The hunting squad member showed a ruthless look on his face and said, "Everyone also knows that the method left by our ancestors has begun to fail. Even adventurers in the village will be in great danger to enter the Black Forest. But have you ever thought that it is not that our method has failed, but that the sacrifices used in the method are useless."

After hearing the words of the Hunting Member, an older MP raised his hand to stop others from continuing the discussion. When the room became quiet, he asked the Hunting Member: "Franco, is there any basis for you to say that the sacrifice is useless?"

"Of course there is a basis." The hunting suit councillor immediately replied: "Everyone should know the third brother of the Brick family, right?"

"It's that crazy man?" Everyone thought about it after hearing this, and soon thought of who the third brother of the Brick family was.

"After the team led by Kerry disappeared in the Black Forest not long ago, I carefully investigated why the methods left by our ancestors failed." In order to let everyone hear their voices, the hunting MP stood up from the position, walked to the middle of the seats, and said with a serious look: "After my careful investigation, I found that the earliest method failed was not in the last few months, but two years ago, the harvest team that the third brother of the Brick family participated. You should still remember that the people in that team died that time, only the third brother of the Brick family came back, but although he came back, he lost one eye and one ear, and the person was crazy."

A congressman in police uniform took the speech and said, "Yes, I remember this matter, and this matter was my responsibility for investigation. The result of the investigation was that they violated the rules of their ancestors and entered the black forest outside the scope of the contract, which caused that tragedy."

"In fact, it is not that we have entered the Black Forest outside the scope of the contract that allows us to enter the Black Forest. But the mysterious contract we signed with the Black Forest back then had problems and the offerings began to expire." The hunting MP refuted the MP's words, and before the other party refuted himself, he added: "Remember carefully whether it was because of the tragedy that our people began to increase after entering the Black Forest, and until now they have become similar to those of outsiders."

After the Hunting Assemblyman finished speaking, the room became very quiet. Everyone was thinking about his words and felt that his words seemed to be right. In the village, whenever the ceremony was completed, there would be basically no danger. However, since that tragedy, even if their ceremony was completed perfectly, the villagers would also have an accident when they entered the Black Forest. However, there were much fewer casualties than those from outsiders. It was not until recently that everyone died in the Black Forest.

The hunting suit MP looked at the expressions on the faces of the people around him, and knew that what he was saying had been recognized by everyone, so he continued to say: "After I investigated this clearly, a question arose in my mind. If those people had failed for some reason, then everyone should have died in the forest. Why can the third brother of the Brick family come back alive?"

According to the words of the Hunting Member, some congressman said maliciously: "You mean that the third brother of the Brick family is also one of the people who caused the contract failure. He should have died in the forest. Now he walked out of the forest alive, so the reason for the contract failure still exists. We should send the third brother of the Brick family back to the Black Forest, right?"

Although these words were full of malicious intentions, many people seemed to agree with the proposal and nodded inadvertently.

"Of course not!" The hunting suit congressman immediately defended: "Since the third brother of the Brick family can walk out of the Black Forest alive, it means that the Black Forest has allowed him to leave. The reason why I raised that question was mainly because I wanted to say that the third brother of the Brick family must have a special way to walk out of the Black Forest alive."

"Franco, do you already know that method?" A member of parliament heard some clues and asked.

The Hunting Councillor stopped going around the circle and nodded and admitted: "Yes, I've got the method from the third brother of the Brick family."

"I got the method from a madman, Franco, are you crazy too?" A member of the hunting suit, who had a poor relationship with a member of the MP spoke sarcastically in a timely manner.

The hunting suit MP did not care about the other party's ridicule and said calmly: "Although the third brother of the Brick family is crazy, as long as the method is appropriate, even a madman can tell some useful things. The reason why he was able to walk out of the Black Forest alive was mainly because he made another sacrifice in the Black Forest, but this sacrifice was not the sacrifices prepared by our village, but his own eyes and ears. So I think our ceremony may still be useful, but the sacrifices have changed."

As the Hunting Assemblyman finished speaking, everyone present could not help but exclaim.

For a long time, the sacrifices required for the ceremony in Dashu Town are just some wild animals. They have never done anything like sacrifices by living people. Now the meaning of the hunting MPs seems to mean that if they want their ritual to succeed and that the villagers continue to enter and exit the Black Forest safely as before, they need to use living people to sacrifice.

"Damn it, do you know what you are talking about?" The police MP suddenly stood up and shouted loudly: "You can also say this kind of sacrifice with living people. Don't you know how taboo the Empire is about this kind of time? If you dare to do such a thing today, the people from the Empire Security Bureau will come here to take you away tomorrow. Do you want to kill everyone?"

Hearing these words, the faces of the congressmen present became extremely ugly, and the eyes of the congressman who looked at the hunting suit also became a little gloomy.

Seeing that he was the target of public criticism, the hunting MP did not seem panic, but smiled relaxedly and said, "You have misunderstood my meaning. I never thought about sacrificing a living person. I just felt that since the sacrifice has changed, our ritual can also change."

Someone immediately asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"

The Hunting Councillor explained: "We can complete the ceremony in advance, but do not offer sacrifices, and wait for the sacrifices to be dedicated to the mystery of the Black Forest."

Someone questioned, "Are you crazy? How could someone be willing to be a sacrifice on their own?"

"Why didn't there?" The hunting MP smiled and said, "You forgot that there are many foreigners coming to our town now. Don't they all want to enter the Black Forest from the road we have opened? Since they are going, we don't have to stop them, right?"

After these words, the congressmen present seemed to understand what the congressmen wanted to express, and their gloomy faces eased, and they discussed with each other in a low voice, and soon reached a consensus.

The next day, an announcement was posted on the notice board of the town office in Dashu Town. The announcement mentioned that Dashu Town agreed to open the black forest road opened by Dashu Town to adventurers in other places. Any adventurer in other places only needs to issue a pass from the town office.

This news did not make the out-of-town adventurers gathered in the town feel beyond the feeling. In their opinion, although Dashu Town tried every means to prevent the out-of-town adventurers from using the roads opened by Dashu Town, some people still escaped the blockade of Dashu Town.

There are not many adventurers in the town now and cannot be blocked. When the number of adventurers hides in the future, it will be even more impossible to completely block them, so in the end, the road will still be open.

Now Dashu Town takes the initiative to open the road, which not only saves face for the people in Dashu Town, but also makes adventurers from other places feel that they owe anything to Dashu Town. At that time, all the items needed to enter the Black Forest will be purchased in Dashu Town, so that the people in Dashu Town can benefit from it.

Now that Dashu Town has given way to outside adventurers, outside adventurers will also abide by the rules set by Dashu Town to avoid unnecessary conflicts.

Originally, those outside adventurers thought they could get a pass by just registering their names, but what they didn't expect was that things were not as simple as they thought. Although the whole process of obtaining a pass was not unpleasant, the procedures were a bit cumbersome.

The most troublesome thing in these procedures is to fill out a disclaimer, in order to prevent their relatives and friends from using the roads they used to open up by Dashu Town to make trouble in Dashu Town.

Although this disclaimer is a bit unpleasant, it is still within a tolerable range. However, the subsequent procedures make the adventurers who have applied for passes full of unhappiness.

According to Dashu Town, because entering the Black Forest is very dangerous and the mortality rate is very high, no one can guarantee that they can come out of the Black Forest. Therefore, in order to avoid these adventurers from dying in the Black Forest, no one knows that Dashu Town hopes that all adventurers entering the Black Forest will leave a suicide note and write the address of the recipient on the suicide note. Once they do not come out of the Black Forest, Dashu Town will send these suicide note to the address on the letter.

This approach in Dashu Town should be considered a good intention in many people, but doing this at this time always makes people feel strange, like a kind of mortal curse.

However, no matter how angry they were, they did not resist such measures as Dashu Town. After all, Dashu Town has opened its roads, giving them a chance to make a fortune.

In fact, in the towns around the Black Forest, there are many roads opened up through long-term and large-scale lives. Many roads have even penetrated deep into the depths of the Black Forest. However, after entering the Black Forest, there is a high probability of gaining something, and the only road to come back alive is Dashu Town.

Someone once specifically counted the chances of local adventurers in Dashu Town returning after entering the Black Forest, as well as the harvest of each entry. It was surprisingly discovered that local adventurers in Dashu Town can harvest a lot of things every time. Nearly half of the things related to Black Forest on the market come from Dashu Town, and the survival rate of adventurers in Dashu Town is also the highest.

It is precisely because of this reason that those adventurers who focus on the Black Forest regard the roads opened by Dashu Town as their first choice. According to the prices of items related to Black Forest on the market, they only need to enter the Black Forest to bring out an item unique to the Black Forest, so they will not have to worry about spending in the next few years.

So for the sake of great benefit, they are willing to endure everything, including the kind of suicide note that looks very unpleasant.

However, this dissatisfaction soon dissipated among the adventurers in other places, because those who entered the Black Forest came out alive and gained something. This allowed all adventurers in other places to see their chances of making money and set out to prepare to enter the Black Forest.

However, they did not find that there were only a few people who could walk out of the Black Forest alive, and no other people who entered the Black Forest came out again.

Perhaps they all discovered this, but their attention was all focused on the gains of those living people and they didn't care about other things.

In this way, more and more adventurers gathered in Dashu Town, and Dashu Town has become the most prosperous among all nearby villages and towns.

It was already evening when Leo and Sylvia arrived at Dashu Town. Instead of driving the carriage directly into Dashu Town, they abandoned the carriage on the road and changed into adventurer costumes that would not be particularly eye-catching.

"There are much more adventurers here than expected. The Imperial Security Bureau will definitely send people to monitor it." Standing on a hillside, looking at the town surrounded by simple wooden walls in front, and hearing the noise coming from the town, Sylvia said calmly.

"It's okay, we don't need to stay here, we'll be here tonight..." Leo, who was talking, suddenly stopped, looked at the huge umbrella tree in the center of the town ahead with a serious expression, and frowned, saying, "There's something wrong with that big tree."

Sylvia looked at the umbrella tree in confusion, but did not see any clues.

The umbrella tree is a common tree in the north of the Flan Empire. Because its branches and leaves grow like an umbrella, it has the name of the umbrella tree. Among the various gardens of the Flan Empire, this type of umbrella tree is the most popular, providing tourists with a place to enjoy the cool air.

However, although the umbrella tree in Dashu Town is the same as other umbrella trees, its size is much larger than half of the umbrella tree. Even outside the town, this big tree can be clearly seen, which is also the origin of the name of Dashu Town.

"There are energy fluctuations on this umbrella tree, which is very strong energy fluctuations." Leo knew that Sylvia did not see the background of the umbrella tree, so he explained: "It should be a family."
