The afterglow of the sunset is still dripping on the plateau at dusk. Even though it is already past six o'clock in the evening, the weather on the plateau is still hot. Even with the physical constitution of the adventure group, under the long-term exposure of sunlight, sweat still dripped down the cheeks, mixed with the loess stained on the face through the gauze scarf, leaving stains on the face. But no one cared about this little discomfort. Everyone is an experienced adventurer. Compared with the life and death crises in various dangerous areas, just ordinary heat and dust are not enough to shake anyone a little.

In two days, even though the road conditions on the Butt Plateau were not good, the seven people still used the high maneuverability of the Magic Motion Locomotive to drive over nearly 800 kilometers, almost crossing the entire Mage Country. Along the way, high towers floating in the air and cities spread on the ground appeared at the end of their vision, and villages and farmlands dotted between cities would also appear with the rolling loess. However, with the performance of the Magic Motion Locomotive, it can reach forty or fifty kilometers per hour. These cities and villages will be left behind by everyone in a blink of an eye. Only the floating island floating in the air is still persistently in the girls' vision.

However, there is no one, which does not mean that there are no people in these cities and villages. A few people come along, and often see farmers taking care of the fields and herders grazing on the meadows in passing villages and towns. It can be seen that there are still many residents on the plateau. However, in two days, the seven people did not encounter any caravans or any travelers. It seems that all the pedestrians disappeared from the Bute Plateau. There is only a long smoke and dust between the sky and the loess road that cannot be seen at a glance.

"It's getting late." Panis drove the magic motorcycle in front, and suddenly turned around and shouted: "Now we have two choices, but we don't know which one you are going to choose."

"I choose the second one." Without Panis' explanation, Freya on the car behind the diagonal back replied loudly: "I don't want to roll in the loess for another day. Why didn't I feel that the soil on the Bute Plateau is so big when I came? Oh my god, although the sunset and the yellow sand are deserted, the lonely traveler can always form a lonely and sad picture. The bonfires rushed straight to the night sky and the bright moonlight on the plateau are also so poetic, but my skin is protesting now, so I insist on choosing the second option. Let's go directly to Wangshan Fortress to rest."

"We also have this opinion." Catherine shouted on behalf of the other girls: "It won't take long anyway. Even if the time to dismantle the vehicle, you can go to Wangshan Fortress before 8 o'clock in the evening. It's better to go directly and have a good rest at night. You can wash your body. It's so uncomfortable now that I feel like I'm wearing a mask on my face."

Obviously, although the mud in her body would not shake the girls, women's nature would not change. They would always seize any opportunity and try to clean themselves. Panis scratched his head and muttered, "It's true, I haven't said anything yet, you just blocked everything I want to say. Am I so easy to guess?"

In fact, the girls' guesses about the Panis issue are completely correct. At this time, everyone is facing a choice. If in order to save energy, they can find a village nearby to spend the night or camp directly, and then dismantle the magic motorcycle and put it in their backpacks to carry it. When they are back out tomorrow morning, they will rush down the steeper light ramp of wisdom, and then descend about a height of about a thousand meters, and then they can reach the Wangshan Fortress, which was established in the early Quaternary period of the Quaternary period. Then they will reassemble the magic motorcycle at Wangshan Fortress and set off again. As for another option, according to the girls, they will drive overnight tonight and feel the edge of the Wei Shi Light ramp, then dismantle the motorcycle and then rush straight to the Wangshan Fortress, and spend the night in the fortress that night. In contrast, the girls are more interested in the hotels in Wangshan Fortress, after all, they spent the night in the wilderness covered by loess last night.

"Because you are an idiot." Eva, who was pressing behind her, hugged Panis's waist tightly, held her head high, and buried her face behind her back and whispered: "So it's so easy to guess."

"Hey." Panis rolled his eyes and said, "It's enough for them to despise me. Don't make trouble with me."

"And I always feel something is wrong." Catherine looked around and said, "This road is too deserted. Although the official and bulk cargo transportation of the Mage Kingdom will be carried out through several mobile floating islands. However, in terms of the population and prosperity of the Mage Kingdom, there is not even a caravan on the ground, which is a bit strange. Anyway, this road is also the best way to connect the Faral Empire and Butt. I heard that most caravans will choose this road, but we have not met it alone, just like... it seems... it seems that someone isolating everyone from us."

"Sister, you're a little suspicious." Lina poked her head out from behind Freya and said, "Don't forget that we saw many farmers and herders on the way. If it's really like you said, those people should have been isolated."

"That's why I feel strange." Lina's words did not relieve Catherine's doubts. The Knight Girl still said worriedly: "It is because of the farmers and herdsmen that they can fly all the way with confidence. If even those people really can't see it, there will be a problem. How dare you move forward so unpreparedly."

"Maybe someone deliberately wants you to think so, and then hesitate not to move forward quickly." Lina explained: "In this way, we can't rush to the scene of the tragedy in time and can't find any clues, so you're fooled by thinking so."

"Unless it is the collective decision of the highest judging council of the Boutius." Panis turned around and shouted: "Or the private requests of the top wizard lords, the local lords would not cooperate like this. Without the cooperation of the local lords, no one could do the caravans on the road. But I think the people of Shizhisha would not be stupid enough to make such requests, and it would be too easy to track them down. Doing this is simply to expose their identity to us, and it has no meaning."

"So what do you think," Catherine asked. "Do you think it's just a coincidence?"

"If someone in the Kingdom of the Mages targets us, then they may use some means to prevent us from encountering any caravans or travelers along the way." Panis said: "But they cannot control the caravans coming here from Faral. Don't you find it strange? Not only the same-direction caravans, but even the opposite caravans, we did not encounter any of them here. Although this may seem even more abnormal, it means that the problem may not lie in the Kingdom of the Mages, but in the opposite side."

"Maybe." Catherine said with doubts: "No matter what, it is better to be cautious, especially from the section of the road down the Light of Wisdom. Try not to rush too fast, so as not to lose the ability to adapt when encountering an enemy intercepting the attack in the middle."

The light of wisdom mentioned by several people is a steep slope connecting the Faral Empire and the Kingdom of Mages. The border between the Faral Empire and the Kingdom of Mages is based on the Pandora Mountains that run east-west. The Butt Plateau above the Pandora Mountains and the Flaal Plain below. Because the mountains are very steep, most of them are difficult to pass. Only when approaching the Light of Wisdom Ramps have three passages. One of them is called the Light of Wisdom. The slope is still very steep, with an height of about 1,200 meters, but the length is less than 1,800 meters, and the slope is almost over 60 degrees. Whether going up the mountain or down the mountain, few people will choose this one.

On the steep road, only some high-level professions will run down from above for convenience, but occasionally there will be pitiful people who make mistakes on the way and end up seriously injured. The other two, known as the Light of Knowledge and Magic, are relatively smooth, but the route is winding and twisting. From the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain, even if it is at the fastest, it often takes more than half a day. However, for caravans and normal people, this route is the best choice. The starting position of the three ramps is not too far away, and the final end is actually very close. They are all gathered in a canyon. At the end of the canyon is the Wangshan Fortress, the border city of the Faral Empire.

Accompanied by the rumbling sound of the magic motorcycle, a group of seven finally arrived at the northernmost end of the Pandora Mountains before the complete sunset. In front of them was a cliff with no edges and a deep valley surrounded by mist. Looking forward, in the distance, a city appeared in the twilight in the twilight, and smoke rose from the city, and with it, there were a few early lights. Looking down from a high place, the city seemed to be only the size of a training ground behind the Western Paradise, and all buildings could not be identified. Only the walls around the city clearly marked the scope of the city.

Directly in front of the girls was a steep slope with a width of about 30 meters. The steep slope had almost no bends. It was a straight line to the foot of the mountain, which made many ordinary people feel weak when they looked at it. The only thing that was fortunate was that iron chains and iron pillars were made into a guardrail on both sides of the steep slope, so as not to accidentally walk downwards, if you accidentally fall down a kilometer-high cliff.

"Freya, how is it going to be demolished?" Several people sat on the edge of the cliff for a while. Seeing the sky getting darker and darker, Catherine asked anxiously: "Let's try to go down before it's dark. The sun sets and is rushing down. I think it's equivalent to suicide."

"Don't worry, it's already done." Freya wiped her hands covered with black oil and shook them in the air. The black oil and stained her hands under the action of magic. The girl tied the last huge backpack tightly and assigned one to each person: "You can get out at any time."
