Chapter 233 Northwest Highlands
Bruce, Jones, and Nicholas were silent for a while and shook their heads: "I'm sorry, it's impossible to estimate. The enemy's strength is unknown. At present, we only know that it is a very powerful demon. There was a war with King Arthur a hundred years ago. King Arthur fought all England's enemies.
Only with the strength of the soldiers did he manage to seriously injure him, and finally Merlin managed to seal him using the scabbard of the Sword in the Stone. Unfortunately, the scabbard has not been found yet, but the demon must also be in a period of weakness, so it is hard to say who will win in this battle."
Haydn counted with his fingers for a while and said: "50,000 Holy Knights plus 30 cardinal-level judges should be enough to deal with these little minions. As for the devil, we can't deal with it. When he shows up, the Pope
Your Majesty will definitely not sit idly by and watch."
"Okay! I, St. Andrews, will also fight with all my strength!"
…
Ned and Chris, who are in the North West Highlands, have no idea what is happening in the south of England. Now they are also encountering a problem: the North West Highlands of Scotland are located in the far northwest of Scotland and have many of the most beautiful mountain and coastal landscapes in the UK.
There are a large number of classic geological areas.
The rich natural relics here are recognized in many designated areas such as two national nature reserves, 54 geological protection inspection sites, 26 geological sites of special scientific importance, 17 special protection sites and 11 special conservation areas.
From the remains of Iron Age defense towers and Norse dwellings to the castles and houses associated with the Scottish island nobles, there are many historical and archaeological sites in Scotland's North West Highlands Geopark.
The North West Highlands of Scotland have some of the most important and diverse geological features in the UK. Its unique landscape has a strong visual impact and reflects the underlying geological features.
Geologically speaking, this area mainly belongs to the internationally important Moine Thrust Fault Zone. The Moine Thrust Fault Zone extends from the north to the south of the North West Highlands Geopark. The western part of the North West Highlands is the 3,000,000,000-year-old Lewis Gneiss Complex
This complex consists of some of the oldest rocks in Europe, and the typical rugged "hill-lake" landscape is characteristic of these rocks. The Lewis Gneiss is also topped by individual layers of Torridonian red sand that are approximately 1,000,000,000 years old.
"Island mountains" formed by rock formations. Because quartzite was susceptible to frost cracking during the most recent glaciation, other island mountain peaks are covered with white Cambrian quartzite - often hidden in giant rock fields.
middle.
To the east of the mountains is an uninhabited countryside filled with swamps. Below the countryside is the mysterious Moine Rock. Traces of the past glaciation can be seen everywhere in the Northwest Highlands Geopark. The coastal scenery also reflects the geological characteristics here.
Where the Lewis gneiss forms the coast, there are countless small bays and rugged headlands, while where the Torridonian sandstone forms the coast, it is in sharp contrast, with towering cliffs and occasional sea stacks (such as the Old Man
Peak. The Northwest Highlands is an important area in the history of geological science.
In this book, the appearance of the northwest highlands has changed. Mountains are connected to mountains, and valleys are connected to valleys. The mist of early spring lingers in the mountains and forests for a long time. Chris and Ned walked out of this mountain and immediately entered another mountain.
Walking out of another mountain, I found another mountain that seemed to have been visited before... In human words: lost!
Ned flew down from high altitude for the Nth time. Chrissy swung the sword in the stone and chopped it on the big tree next to Ned and said in frustration: "Tell me, which way do you feel like going this time?"
Ned picked up a branch from the ground and recited something silently. Listen carefully: "The sky is moving and the earth is moving. The father-in-law of the land is about to appear. He doesn't ask about wealth, and he doesn't ask about officials. He only asks about the way forward.
Where!" After reciting the incantation, he threw the wooden stick on the ground. The quality inspection wooden stick spun around in the air for a few times before being stuck straight into the soft soil!
Ned's good temper finally wore off. He kicked down the small wooden stick and pointed in a direction: "I just used magic to divine it. This direction must be right!"
Chrissy looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Are you sure?"
Ned was very sure: "It must be right!"
Chrissy looked at the big trees around her, chopped off five or six of them with her sword and said, "Make a mark. If you come back here next time, you will be dead!"
The fat on Ned's face trembled but he still said firmly: "My dear, how could I lie to you? Trust me!"
It’s been another day of walking, but unfortunately there is still nothing but trees! The veins in Chris’ delicate hand holding the sword in the stone bulged, and she stared at the little fat man fiercely, with a fierce light in her eyes.
Ned knew something was wrong and immediately showed his courtesy: "My dear, are you tired from walking? How about I hold you and fly for a while?"
Chrissy gathered her inner strength and swung out a sword energy, and more than a dozen big trees in front of her fell down. Chrissy turned her head and looked at Ned coldly, the meaning was obvious: Boy, if you can't find the way again,
These trees are your front car!
Ned opened his mouth, hugged Chris' thigh and cried: "Dear, it's all my fault! The northwest highlands in the Middle Ages are so different from the future topography. I really don't know how to go.
Yes! My dear, please spare me a moment!"
Chrissy's anger was washed away by the little fat man's tears. She couldn't blame Ned entirely for getting lost. When they first entered the mountain, Ned suggested bringing a local acquaintance as a guide, but Chrissy didn't.
I refused because it was too slow for ordinary people to travel. Not only did I not take a tour guide, but I even left the 800 thugs I brought with me outside.
Chris helped Ned up and comforted her softly: "My dear, don't take it too seriously. You're just lost. Anyway, we don't know the specific location of the scabbard. We can just walk around and find it."
Ned carefully hid the old ginger in his hand and asked, "Are you not angry with me anymore?"
Chris smiled: "My relatives have been here these days, so I have a bad temper. Think about it, how could I be really angry with you!"
Ned wiped his eyes with his sleeve and complained: "My dear, you are so kind! What kind of villa do you want to live in today? A cabin in the tree or a three-bedroom and two-living house on the ground?"
Chris thought for a moment and said, "The land here is too wet. It's more comfortable to live in a tree."
"I have the order! Look at my hand!" Ned recited the spell in a formal manner, and saw a tremor in the middle of the two big trees with intersecting crowns, and soon a hut made of branches and leaves took shape.
.
Chris jumped up and entered the hut: "Where's the hot water? I want to take a shower!"
"Come here!" Ned flew into the wooden house and gestured again. Hot water and a bathtub were all lacking.
At night, the two of them cuddled up and fell asleep, but an uninvited guest came outside the house. The tattered clothes were so dirty that their true colors could not be seen, their beards were messy and drooping, and they were holding a cracked wine gourd in their hands.
