The Green Field Plain in the south of the Kingdom has the most fertile land and the most abundant water sources in the country. Cities and villages of all sizes are dotted across this vast land, forming a population known as the "Treasure House of the Kingdom"
Economically intensive zone, but even in such a prosperous and prosperous area, desolate no-man's land still exists, and this long strip of no-man's land even runs from north to south, from the wilderness in the north to the hilly areas in the south.
The residents of the plains call this vast desolate land the "Devil's Corridor". According to local legends, the founding king of Talos once led the knights to fight fiercely with Chaos on the Green Field Plains, which was the last wave of the Chaos Tide.
One year, the last Chaos legion entrenched on the mainland fought stubbornly in the wilderness and fought bloody battles with the human legions for seventeen days and nights. Finally, the brave ancestors led the warriors to repel Chaos and wiped them all out on this line of defense.
, the ashes of chaos monsters and human blood mixed together and seeped into the ground, permanently polluting the land, leaving a black corrosion on the fertile green plains, which is today's Devil's Corridor.
In this land, it is difficult for plants to grow, the soil is hardened, undead and shadow monsters wander around day and night, and even the climate has become extremely strange. Although it is not as deadly as the Land of Chaos, people living on the plains are still concerned about
Except for warlocks who study shadow magic and adventurers who specialize in making money from monsters, no one wants to travel through the Devil's Corridor. However, Hao Ren chose to go south through the Devil's Corridor.
Because only in this desolate no-man's land, he could let his Big Dipper step on the accelerator, and the front would be wide open, especially with less effort on the steering wheel...
The weird vehicle that had never appeared in the world of Koro raised high smoke and dust in the Devil's Corridor, making a deafening roar as it rushed forward. All the obstacles along the way were directly knocked away or penetrated. Hao Ren counted the numbers that were in the way.
The thing in front of the car appeared more than a hundred times, and the current record of Big Dipper was 125 wins, 0 draws and 0 losses. He looked at the map again and found that the distance was already halfway.
That strange "King's Secret Agent" An is now sitting in the passenger seat.
This strange woman shrouded in darkness has not said a word since she got in the car. Her silence seems to be an attribute engraved in her bones. As long as you don't ask, she will never take the initiative to speak. But Hao Ren believes that
The other party's calmness also has its limits: anyway, at least when the Big Dipper crashed through a hill, this sister jumped up once...
Such a boring travel companion made the atmosphere in the car extremely awkward. Hao Ren set the automatic cruise mode for Beidou Star, and he was even more bored at the moment. He turned to look at An next to him: "I said, don't you usually talk?
"
An's hood shook slightly, as if she tilted her head this way, and she made a short nasal sound: "Yeah."
"Can you tell me something about you?" Hao Ren still didn't give up. People's curiosity is like this. Once it comes up, it is almost impossible to suppress it. "Are you the king's spy? A spy looking for an investigation from the Order State.
What are you doing?"
An was silent for a moment, and just when Hao Ren thought she wouldn't answer the question, a hoarse and low voice came from under the hood: "I'm going to the Holy Land."
Hao Ren was surprised and almost stepped on the accelerator.
"You want to go to the Sanctuary? You are a Talos man, why are you going to the Sanctuary?"
"You are not from the Sanctuary, there is no need for me to tell you." An said stiffly.
This time Hao Ren was even more surprised. He looked at the other person as if he had seen a ghost: "What did you say? I am an ancient guardian. Have you forgotten? The guard of Cassuan Temple! How could I not be
Where are the people from the Sanctuary?"
In fact, he didn't care at all about the identity of the so-called "Sanctuary person", but after all, he had held this title for nearly a month, and his actions in the world of Koro basically depended on this title. At this time, this strange woman actually
The truth was revealed in one breath, which of course surprised him.
An did not have any unnecessary emotional fluctuations. She just said calmly as if stating the facts: "You are not from the Sanctuary. There is no guardian of the Kasu'an Temple. Your identity is false. There is no need to explain this. Not only you
The identity of the 'ancient holy objects' you brought is also very problematic. They are definitely not products of the holy realm, but their divine power is genuine."
Hao Ren looked An up and down. In fact, he was just looking at the opponent's hood. A layer of shadow spell covered the woman's face, making it impossible to see her true appearance. After a moment, he shook his head: "Whatever, this question
unimportant."
He behaved very generously, but in fact he really didn't care much about it: the censor was a permanent third party, and any status he had when contacting indigenous civilizations was temporary and disposable to him.
, as long as one phase of the task is completed, this identity will be meaningless. There is a saying among the censors: You don’t believe in my identity? That’s easy, I’ll make up another one later...
"Then why didn't you reveal my identity when you were with Rudolf III?" He was only a little curious about this question.
"Because you are not a minion of Rock Marton," An said. "I can't tell what you are, but at least you are not chaos, and you still have the power of order in your body, so I judge that you are harmless."
After saying this, she lowered her head, as if she was no longer prepared to answer any more questions.
And she didn't show any unnecessary curiosity about Hao Ren's attitude.
Seeing this, Hao Ren just shrugged and said casually, "That's right. Actually, I also want to go to the Holy Land."
An Yin reacted to these words, and she had to speak again: "You are not from the Sanctuary, why do you still go to the Sanctuary?"
Hao Ren smiled and kept silent.
He wanted to see if this "An" was also curious, but after a long time, the other party really didn't ask a word.
Hao Ren: "..."
Before they knew it, they had reached the end of the green plain, and the hills to the south were looming.
It's getting late.
The car gradually slowed down at the exit of the Devil's Corridor, and finally stopped with a squeak on the gravel beach. The two rows of propeller nozzles at the rear of the car were slowly retracted into the mechanical cabin, and the repulsive shields covering the four tires were also extinguished one by one.
, in the direction from which the Big Dipper came, a scorching chasm steamed in the setting sun and gradually cooled.
Hao Ren opened the door and got out of the car: "It's getting late. Let's rest here and leave again at dawn tomorrow."
An also got out of the car immediately: "I thought you would be traveling all night."
"Why?"
"You seem to be in a hurry to join up with your 'friend'," An said. "Beyond this hilly land is the border of the Black Crow Territory. There is not much left to go."
Hao Ren raised his head and glanced in the direction of the hills. He was indeed a little moved, but in the end he shook his head: "We are not in a hurry. There are many risks when approaching the border. The Black Crow Fortress is in a state of war. I'm afraid we will have to fight if we go there, or even...
We have to recharge our batteries today to fight all the way in."
An nodded and had no further comments.
Camping in the wild is not difficult for Hao Ren, and can even be considered a pleasure: in addition to weapons, his portable space is also filled with various survival supplies, including small alien living cabins and extreme environment ecological domes.
This gadget will allow the reviewers to live a life of air conditioning and watermelon on Mars. Of course, he won't be able to build an ecological spherical cabin on site here, but he can still have a living cabin.
An An saw Hao Ren casually throw out an affordable housing, and despite the sister's calmness, she couldn't help but be a little stunned.
"Don't ask, I won't tell you. Even if you do ask, I can only tell you that this is the technology of the previous generation, and you won't believe it, but you won't necessarily believe it if I tell you anything else.
"You can understand or accept it, so in short you'd better not ask," Hao Ren waved his hand in front of An to bring her back to her senses, "I still have a lot of magical equipment in this 'dimensional bag'."
However, An seemed to be focused on something else. She looked intently at the residential cabin thrown out by Hao Ren and murmured to herself: "This also has the power of order..."
"What?"
"No...it's nothing."
"Inexplicable..." Hao Ren muttered in a low voice, feeling more and more that it was a mistake to bring this weird and gloomy woman with whom he could never figure out what she was thinking. He shook his head and turned around to go into the living cabin to rest, but the moment he turned around
, he saw a shadow hanging over the hilly areas in the south.
It was already the last quarter of dusk, and the sky was very dark, but the shadow was still particularly conspicuous in the darkness. It was in the shape of a dark block, floating among the clouds. Under the shadow, the whole world seemed to be shrouded in a layer of darkness.
The purple-black mist made it completely different from the surrounding clouds, and it looked more like the kind of shadow clumps seen in the desolate wilderness.
"What is that?" Hao Ren couldn't help but asked curiously.
"That's the 'Chaos Tearing Point' closest to the southern border," An said. "The mountain people call it 'Hogus Hut'. We'd better bypass that place when we're on the road tomorrow, although it's still under the control of the forces of order.
However, the Chaos Tear Point often expands suddenly, so there is no guarantee that accidents will not occur.”
This taciturn "King's Secret Agent" rarely spoke a lot.
"Chaos tearing point?" Hao Ren scratched his chin, "I seem to have heard Veronica and Aniya talk about this."
"That is the realm of chaos that is permanently solidified. Even in the state of the Land of Order, the tearing point will always be shrouded in chaos. The Cassuan Temple is located in such a tearing point. Before Princess Veronica finds you,
It had been devoured for a thousand years, so that almost no one in the secular kingdom knew of the temple's existence."
While Hao Ren and An were discussing the tearing point of chaos, another wave of teams had arrived deep in the hills.
Lily looked up at the mound in front of her that was shrouded in purple-black mist and exuded an unclean atmosphere. She felt that the light that had finally dimmed on her body was beginning to light up again.
Behind her, Carathius's Sanctuary Investigation Team, the Knights from Black Crow Fortress, and the "Wolf Guards" composed of high-level warcraft overwhelmed a large group of people, all of whom looked nervous and looked at them as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Looking at the chaotic fog in front of me.
"Head Wolf," Karasius warned aloud, "The Tear Point is very dangerous. Its internal environment is almost the same as the Land of Chaos, even weirder. Please think twice."
"But I smell some strange smells around here..." Lily blinked and sniffed as she said, "Smell, sniff... sniff... I want to go there!" (To be continued.)
