The pale blue moonlight shines on the undulating hills and hills, the calls of partridges and nightingales come and go in the summer night, the dark bushes often flutter, and the wind from the east coast climbs along Mount Helga to this place.
The sharp sea breeze has been lost, leaving only a little bit of saltiness.
Green Moon Adese has completed her mission and is gradually approaching the western border. In the distant and mysterious east, a dazzling colorful moon gradually rises, and the Huayue Biqilan quietly appears.
The Anze people who believe in witches and illusions believe that Huayue Biqilan is completely different from her two sisters. Chuyue Vanya is a symbol of goodness and beauty, and also represents the kindness of the gods. In the distant Second Age,
The apprentices of the White Tower wizard often go to the void to temper their magic power when the first moon rises, and Vanya will protect their souls and bodies from being disturbed by the dark power in the void. And in the moon that dominates the night
Among the three sisters, Adès of the Blue Moon is a mysterious and low-key totem. Many Goblin clans in the northern Nuoden jungle stubbornly believe that the blue moonlight is similar to their own skin color, so they choose to appear in the Green Moon.
time to start hunting.
Although other races laugh at how dirty and low-level creatures like Goblins are worthy of the noble and holy Ms. Adese, Qingyue is always consistent. She is generous and willing to provide her magic power to believers. It is said that in Qingyue
On a moonlit night, the Goblin Priest's spells will be greatly enhanced.
However, when people evaluate the most beautiful Flower Moon, they always like to use proverbs such as "femme fatale" or "colorful mushrooms often contain deadly toxins" to describe it. The ancient Anze people never appeared in the Flower Moon.
When using magic, the witches kept it secret. However, no matter how beautiful and charming Ms. Beachland was, people can indeed learn many details about the romantic affairs of the ancient gods from the records of the Southern Pearl Tower’s Perpetual Calendar. In these true stories,
In stories that are hard to distinguish from fake, Huayue always plays a disgraceful role.
Dulan climbed up a small hill and struggled to support his knees with both hands, recovering his strength that was on the verge of drying up.
The view on the hill is quite good, the colorful moonlight with heavy makeup replaces the light blue light, and the earth seems to be covered with a layer of colorful new clothes in an instant. Dulan has no disrespect to Ms. Huayue, but at this time,
He had to stop and find a place to rest.
Dulan's calculations are very accurate. If he takes the official road, even by horseback and carriage, it will take more than three days to reach the Western Mountain Pass. If he chooses to cross the withered path, he will calculate the time consumed at three times the walking speed of an ordinary person.
No more than two days at most.
Although it is more advantageous to arrive at the Western Pass as early as possible, Dulan has a plan in mind. He only needs to arrive one step ahead of the knights of the Burning Blood Oath Legion. What's more, it is not easy to cross the Withering Trail. If you don't have enough
With enough physical strength and energy, a flame lizard is enough to bury a dozen assassin apprentices like Duran.
Dulan found an inconspicuous shelter from the wind on a small hill. The rest of the western foothills of Mount Helga should be safe before entering the Withering Trail. However, wild beasts hunting at night cannot be avoided, so Duran can only hold on tight.
The oak thorn and the bronze dagger slept together in their clothes.
Duran had a particularly sweet sleep this time. Since time traveling, he has experienced several battles in evil places. Whether it was the corpse robber Kassa or the evil spirit Arabelle, they were all characters that exhausted Duran. In turns
In the battle, he not only consumed a lot of physical strength, but also energy. The improvement of the level may help to increase the strength, but this does not mean that a person can become a robot in the blink of an eye. Necessary rest is still very important.
.
When he woke up, Ms. Beachland had disappeared below the horizon, and the scorching sunlight shone on Dulan, making him burnt all over.
"It's so hot..." Dulan struggled to get up sleepily. The early morning sunlight in summer was enough to wake him up. It was obvious that Dulan's journey for the next day or so would not be easy.
Duran acted quickly and tidied up a bit. A not-so-sufficient sleep allowed him to recover a lot of physical strength. According to the digitized results on the evil contract, it was 78%. For this reason, Duran couldn't help but sigh at the young man's physical recovery.
Ability is strong - and the most important thing is that now he is full of energy and has a clear mind. After going through the next plan and journey in his mind for a while, Dulan feels that it is basically foolproof.
So he hurriedly ate some dry food in his bag from the sweet and pure stream on the mountain. It must be said that this kind of black cookie with a hint of sour taste was not a delicacy at all, but Dulan still ate it.
He was very happy, after all, he had been hungry for almost a day.
After finishing his rest, Duran stopped staying. He walked down the hill and crossed the ford of a small river. A small waterfall appeared in Dulan's sight. Countless flowing water splashed down from the top of the waterfall, forming a small waterfall in the depression.
A lake that is not too big or too small.
"Lake Valmisi." Dulan showed a smile. If he found this lake, he would no longer be far away from the Withering Trail.
To Dulan's surprise, there were some wild blood melons growing sparsely near the sandy land beside Lake Valmi. Dulan, whose taste buds were devastated by the moldy cookies, excitedly picked two and held them in his arms.
When you are thirsty and tired after a long journey, this juicy and nutritious fruit will come in handy.
Anyway, it was deep in the mountains and old forests, and Duran was not afraid of being seen by others. He simply took off his thin shirt and wrapped two bloody melons inside. After doing all this, he walked along the beach by the lake to Lake Valmisi.
Go to the center.
The lake was not deep. Although Dulan was small, the water level in the center of the lake was only as high as his shoulders. Soon, Dulan reached the waterfall.
He held the blood melon with one hand, and with the other hand he began to stroke the mountain wall behind the waterfall through the thin water curtain of the waterfall. The stone wall with flowing water all day long was extremely smooth, and some places were covered with moss. Duran calmed down and spoke.
After about ten minutes of groping little by little, his right hand finally found an empty space.
"Hey, found it!"
Duran's body continued to move to the right. Under the sunlight, even through the thin water curtain, he could clearly see that the dark cave entrance behind the waterfall was different from other mountain walls.
This is the entrance to the Wither Path - the Spider's Den.
Without hesitation, Du Lan ducked through the water curtain and got into the cave.
There was darkness in the spider's den, and Duran's sight was greatly restricted, but he was not afraid. Because the journey in the dark would not be long. Although the spider's den has a terrifying and imaginative name,
But it doesn't pose much danger in itself.
Dulan, who is familiar with the information and history of Feinan Continent, knows that the Withered Trail was originally a road opened by a group of thieves and smugglers in the Second Age. At that time, human civilization reached its extreme development, and now there are many people living in the place where Baisha Town exists.
Moon elves and ice elves, businessmen who took risks for profit secretly joined forces to open up the withered path across the western foot of Mount Helga - it was not called this name at that time. However, when the second era ended, twelve evil dragons crossed
The plane came and took control of the world. The ice fairies and moon elves near Baisha Town left one after another and hid in shelters. The merchants stopped coming and going, and the withered paths gradually became deserted and occupied by some wild monsters.
.
The reason why the Spider Cave has such an impressive name is because when the smugglers opened this road, they found a female spider that had been dead for many years in the cave. It was said that the spider was huge.
It could almost catch up with a bull. The merchants removed the spider's body and buried it properly. And because of superstition, they named this short cave after the dead spider, hoping that the ghost of the spider - if there is one
If so, you can bless them with abundant wealth.
The above information flashed through Dulan's mind one by one. The strong sunlight in front of him suddenly poured into Dulan's eyes. After a while, he got used to it and walked out of the cave calmly.
The world outside the cave entrance was more sultry than other places at the western foot of Helga Mountain. There was no grass growing on both sides of the road, and red or earthy-yellow soil filled Dulan's eyes, while a winding and endless path spiraled towards a hill in front of it.
It went up and then spiraled down from an unknown place.
Lair of Fire.
This is the name of this hill. When the Withered Trail is no longer inhabited, a group of flame lizards who migrated from nowhere have turned this place into a rooted nest. There are no less than a hundred flame lizards living in the nest deep in the hill.
, these flame lizards have silver-level power at worst, and Duran, a little assassin apprentice, is really not enough in front of them.
However, Duran was not prepared to have a head-on conflict with these hospitable wild animals. He was just passing through this place. With his stealth skills, he should be able to avoid most of the battles. As for the treasure buried at the bottom of the Flame Lair, although Duran was a little moved,
Being rational, he opened the evil contract in time to confirm his strength, and at the same time told himself that he was not in a game now, and there was no way to resurrect him if he died.
So he completely gave up his plan to look for the treasure [Molten Core] right now. Not many people knew about the Flame Lizard's lair anyway. It wouldn't hurt to wait until he grew up to be a gold-level assassin to get this treasure.
Duran carefully set foot on the path of the flame lair with the blood melon in his arms. The flame lizard has the ability to change color and camouflage. Sometimes it looks like an uninhabited wasteland from a distance. When you walk in, you will find that there are enough
There are more than a dozen flame lizards lying in wait there to prepare cordial greetings for you. Fortunately, Duran's perception is barely up to par, and the advantage of his digitized body is that he can exert his body's highest level anytime and anywhere.
The rugged mountain road became extremely difficult to walk in the hot climate. In order to beware of crises that might arise at any time, Dulan slowed down greatly.
It took a full two hours before he reached halfway up the mountain.
At this moment, a rapid and low wailing came from the front. Dulan's eyelids twitched and he bent down calmly.
“Ds’rego!”
The stealth skill was activated instantly, and Duran disappeared from the spot, leaving only a faint shadow.
