How could they have imagined that all this was because there was a high-level demon sitting in the leading carriage.
If they had known about it, I'm afraid they wouldn't be so relaxed.
Day after day, two days and two nights, the team entered the depths of the eastern part of the deserted land, and the shadows of the ruined cities could be seen in the distance.
The places where the demons once resided have been transformed beyond recognition by the flames of war, and the presence of a large number of demons has also reduced many cities to ruins.
Just as they were about to reach their destination, Shen Yanxiao and the others encountered a group of people halfway.
A human team of three to four hundred people.
It's not unusual to see monsters in a deserted land, but it's very strange to see humans.
The group of people pitched tents in a forest, built bonfires, and entered and exited a cave not far away one after another.
They pushed carts in their hands, and carts of dark ore were transported out of the cave.
Shen Yanxiao stopped the team, got off the carriage, and looked at the unexpected group of humans.
"What are they doing?" Shen Yanxiao looked at those people and asked Uncle Jiu beside him.
Uncle Jiu said: "They are mining ores, and the desolate land has been abandoned for a long time, but the resources here are indeed the richest in Guangming Continent. The four countries want to reclaim this area precisely because there are inexhaustible resources here. Resources. Look at the ore loaded on their vehicles, which is obsidian. Obsidian is extremely rare in the Bright Continent. Weapons forged with obsidian are extremely tough. If they are used to build city walls, even if they are equipped with intensive magic and artillery, they will not be able to survive. There will never be a crack in the moon."
Shen Yanxiao raised his eyebrows slightly. This seemingly dangerous place actually contained the richest treasures in the Guangming Continent.
But there was one question that she was curious about.
"The eastern part of the Desolate Land is under the jurisdiction of the Longxuan Empire. As far as I know, the winners of the recent academy competitions all stayed in the Desolate Land for less than two or three months before leaving. We should be considered the only ones now. Criticizing the Longxuan Empire's team, where did those people come from?" Shen Yanxiao said with a smile.
Uncle Jiu said: "Looking at their clothes, they don't look like people from the Longxuan Empire. They should be people from the other three countries stationed in the deserted land."
Shen Yanxiao sneered.
"Are you really bullying me, Longxuan Renren? You actually reached out to my territory!"
There was an agreement among the four countries. Although the barren land could not be reclaimed in a short time, the barren land had been divided into four regions according to the southeast, northwest and northwest. Even if no one in the Longxuan Empire successfully reclaimed this area, But according to the Four-Power Entente, people from other countries must not invade anything here.
Fortunately, Shen Yanxiao had just stepped into her territory when she saw someone stealing her resources.
And it’s blatant robbery!
"Don't be anxious. The other three countries have deep roots in the desolate land. We haven't built a city yet. If we have a conflict with them at this time, it will be very detrimental to us." Uncle Jiu saw that Shen Yanxiao was a little angry and hurriedly comforted him. .
Shen Yanxiao sneered and said: "Am I supposed to watch what belongs to me being taken away by others under my nose? I can't say that I can't hate it, but I can only swallow my anger?"
"For the time being... this is all we can do." Uncle Jiu sighed. It was well known that the Longxuan Empire was at a disadvantage in its progress in the desolate land.
