Chapter 31 Two Realms Mountains
"This..." Seeing this, Darren looked helpless. Since the Little Lion Mastiff was taken to play with by Alila a few times, the Lion Mastiff always had this expression when facing Alila. It turned out that Alila completely used the Lion Mastiff to play with it as an ordinary puppy, which caused the Lion Mastiff to suffer a lot, and it was so painful.
"Look, I don't know what happened today..." Darren had no choice but to make excuses and said. He had already felt the fear and resistance of the Little Lion Mastiff, especially when he saw the pitiful eyes of the Lion Mastiff, he really couldn't bear to hand it over to Alila.
"Hmph..." Alila looked at Darren's expression, a man and a beast, and suddenly became a little angry. She glared at Darren fiercely, then turned around and left on a horse.
"Little guy, look, I offended someone because of you!" Darren looked at the little lion mastiff with a smug look in his arms, shook it gently, and a smile appeared on his face. "Wool..." The little lion mastiff screamed happily, as if responding to Darren's words.
"Hahaha, no wonder Alila regards you as a little native dog!" Hearing the little lion mastiff's scream, Darren couldn't help laughing. "Haha, Darren, your monster is not simple. I have seen many people with monster mounts over the years, and I have never seen such a lively monster!" Adams on the side couldn't help laughing. "I feel this way too!" Darren nodded with a smile.
Because the journey is long, no one has had much rest along the way, but has been walking fast. When night falls, darkness covers the earth. Except for a few clusters of floating fires swaying in the night wind, most places are covered by endless darkness. In the sky, a crescent moon like a sickle is hanging high, sprinkling with cold light. The night wind is a little cool and blowing by, and the fire is swinging with the wind, light and dark. All the mercenaries are clustered together in groups, sitting around the bonfire.
Their location is a relatively open place between the two mountains, which is just right for temporary residence. Darren looked at the rolling mountains around him, and in the night, he could only see their faint shadows, like silent giants standing quietly on the earth, giving people a mysterious and majestic feeling.
"The two realms are in front of you. You will enter Jiuyuan County after you cross here. After passing through Jiuyuan County, we can reach our destination." Adams looked into the distance and said slowly. Darren and his friends walked in a hurry. After a whole month, they finally arrived at the Two Realms Mountains. Here, they are about to enter the most dangerous area. "Brother Adams, seeing the leader's serious appearance, are these two realms really so dangerous?" Darren looked at the alert expression on everyone's face and couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Although he had read a lot of records about the mainland when he was in the academy, he still didn't know much about these two mountains. However, from the expressions and tone of the crowd, he could see that this place was by no means simple.
"Yeah." Adams nodded. Knowing Darren's situation, everyone did not make fun of him, but began to introduce him in detail.
These two world mountains are located at the junction of the four major counties and cities, and are vast and boundless, like a mysterious and dangerous field. Due to their special geographical location, this place has become a breeding ground for illegal people. Robbers are rampant and blocking the road to collect tolls are common. Moreover, there are many strong people in the mountains. The empire has sent troops to encircle and suppress the enemy many times, but they all return in vain, which shows the complexity and danger of this place.
Night fell quietly, and darkness was like a huge curtain covering the entire camp. Darren found a clearing, gently held the Lion Mastiff in his arms, slowly closed his eyes, and began to close his eyes to rest. After half a month of long journey, even if he was as powerful as Darren, he would inevitably feel a little tired.
Wow~ The night wind blew, and the entire camp gradually became quiet. Except for the slight footsteps made by a few mercenaries in charge of guarding while patrolling around the camp, there was no other sound. However, even in such a seemingly calm atmosphere, danger was approaching quietly.
Several alert mercenaries may have relaxed their vigilance because of long-term fatigue or insufficient estimates of the complexity of these two realms. Under the cover of the darkness, several black shadows flashed quickly like ghosts, and their movements were light and agile, but they were not noticed by the alert mercenaries.
"Well, someone is here!" Although Darren was resting on the surface, after years of training in the forest of Warcraft, he was extremely sensitive to the abnormal fluctuations in the surrounding environment, like instinct. He clearly captured the slight elemental fluctuation in the air, which was a signal of the enemy approaching. Although the visitor's method of converging his breath was extremely clever, under Darren's powerful mental power perception, he still had nowhere to hide.
However, Darren was not too worried because he knew that he was not the only one who discovered the abnormal situation. Several leader of the Phoenix Mercenary Group had extraordinary strength and must have noticed this dangerous aura.
"Puff..." Sure enough, just as several black shadows gradually approached the camp, the ground suddenly vibrated violently, and countless sharp grounds pierced through the ground, like demonic claws stretching out from hell.
The black shadows that had no time to react were instantly pierced by their bodies, and the wailing sound of pain echoed in the night sky. It turned out that the deputy commander of the Phoenix Mercenary Group's level 8 magician took action. His sneak attack was powerful. Not to mention these black shadows with the highest level of level 7 warriors, even the eighth warriors may be severely damaged. Hearing the wailing sounds coming from all around, the mercenaries who were still sleeping woke up one after another. They quickly picked up their weapons and looked nervously alert.
Several leader of the Phoenix Mercenary Group walked out of the team under the leadership of Asuna. Asuna was wearing tight armor and holding a silver spear, with a tall figure and a cold look, like a female war god who was not afraid of danger, staring coldly ahead.
"Sister, what's wrong!" Asule rubbed his sleepy eyes and walked out of the tent with a confused look on his face. Looking at the tense situation in front of him, he asked. "Go to the back!" Asua did not answer Asule's question, but ordered in a serious tone, then turned to Tieta and said, "Tieta, protect Asule!" "Yes!" Tieta responded in a muffled voice. He was as strong as a bear, holding a huge sword in his hand, and strode to Asule and protecting her behind him.
