Lord of War

Chapter 13: .The Land of Black Soil

   "A land of black soil?"

  Not everyone knows the meaning of the word "black soil".

  Cecilia and Du Luen will know, and Sean will not be surprised at all. Because the term "black soil" was handed down by magicians, and the Kingdom of Puerto Roa is a country dominated by magic, Du Luen would know that "black soil" is not unusual.

"You know that there is a land of black soil, why didn't you tell us clearly at the beginning!" Du Luen suddenly disappeared from him at this moment like a grumpy beast, the elegance and etiquette of the nobleman, "Do you know the black soil? The danger of the land!"

   "I know." Xiao En said calmly, "Remember what I told you? This is the Forest of Starfall, a place I know better than you."

   "You..." was overwhelmed by Sean's calm aura, Du Luen didn't know what to say for a while.

   "What the **** is the land of black soil?" Old Peter also frowned. At this moment, he noticed the panic and fear in Du Luen's heart.

  The atmosphere became a bit cold.

  Fear began to breed in the crowd.

   "Let's set off first, and said while walking on the road." Shaun did not answer immediately, but urged everyone to prepare, and then set off immediately.

  Although after the development and revolution of "Sheng Shi", "Miracle" has indeed been improved to a large extent, especially in the aspect of ai, it has achieved the ultimate. But after all, there is still a big gap between the game and reality. At least in the game, Sean has never heard of anyone who will receive such a grand treatment from the wind-stripe black wolf tribe, even if there is a dubuff of "ethnic hatred" on him. , Is far from being strong enough to require the Black Wolf King to take action in person.

  Sure enough, there is still a big difference between games and reality.

  The team quickly set foot on the itinerary again. Perhaps it was caused by the changes in the attitudes of Cecilia and Du Luen. The whole team was in an extremely tense atmosphere. Sean knew that this would speed up the team's physical and mental consumption, but at this time, he had no time to adjust the psychological factors in this regard, because he himself had to concentrate his attention to prevent possible occurrences. Any accidents.

  But if Shaun doesn’t answer, it doesn’t mean that the others in the team will be silent.

Although Harley’s figure is a bit fatter, he has lost weight in the past few days. At this moment, even though he is still out of breath when running, he can at least say a few words: "Mr. Du Luen, after all... the black earth... is... what?"

  Du Luen's face struggled, his eyes fell on Sean's back: "That lunatic!"

   But in the end, he could only sigh helplessly: "You should all know that when the Ash Age comes, there will be no light in this world, and even the order of the old age has completely collapsed..."

  Hearing Du Luen's words, Sean couldn't help but also remembered the official background setting of "Miracle".

  At the end of the Twilight Era, Manmin’s hatred of the gods was so great that he couldn't repair it, so Manmin no longer believed in the gods, and the angry gods gave the punishment, and the whole world became chaotic. And because they no longer believe in the gods, the people who have lost their divine power have to turn to other aspects of development. They have begun to come into contact with the realm of elements, so they can display magical means without the help of divine power, which makes the gods feel Because of panic and fear, in order to re-establish the majesty of the gods, the gods finally launched a protracted war with the people.

  It was a defeated war that historians called "Twilight of the Gods".

  After the war, the gods no longer existed, but the people did not usher in their so-called ideal world. The alienation power left by the divine power and the elements broke the order of the entire world, and lost the protection of the gods, and the sky has lost its color. Desolation and ruins have become the most common scenes in the entire world, just like flames. The remaining ashes afterwards.

  Because of this, this era is called the Age of Ashes.

"In the Age of Ashes, there is no light in the world, and even the air is turbid." Du Luen said in a deep voice, "but these are not the most terrifying. What is truly terrifying is the omnipresent dark power in the world. In these dark powers Under the continuous invasion, any species will be taken from life. Only some places in the entire world that still retain the power of the remaining order can survive."

"These places are called the Ark." Cecilia took Du Luen's words softly. "After all, the gods did not abandon the people. At the last moment of that war, the God of Order may have realized something, he In the end, I sacrificed myself and turned into countless recovery fires.... The reason why the Ark can keep the people alive is because there is a recovery fire in the Ark. Only the power of order generated by the recovery fire can withstand the invasion of dark forces. "

"Those places that are invaded by dark forces are called the land of black soil." Du Luen glanced at Cecilia, he was also a little curious about Cecilia's identity, of course, he was more surprised by her. Talent, "You don’t know that the land of black soil is normal. After all, other places adjacent to the Kingdom of Selian are rich lands and powerful countries. But in fact, there are still many black soil lands in this world, such as Portoro. Going further east, the Kingdom of Asia is a land of black soil. It is a place without light and heat, let alone food."

   "Then just bury the resuscitation tinder, right?"

"It's not as simple as you think." Cecilia shook her head. "Only in the dark vortex in the Black Earth, can the revival fire be buried and the order in the Black Earth can be restored. In this world On the above, there is an organization called the Pioneer Guild, whose duty is to find the resurgent fire, restore the land of black soil to a place of order, so that people can reclaim new land and build new homes. However, the land of black soil is also very important. It is dangerous, and according to the strength of the dark power generated by the dark vortex, the dark power on the black soil is also strong or weak.... Some places where the dark power is relatively weak, even we can go, and some dark powers are relatively weak. Strong places, even legendary powerhouses dare not trespass."

Speaking of this, Cecilia paused for a while, and then said in an unquestionable tone: "Since Sean dares to bring us, it proves that this land of black soil can be passed through even by us.... However, even if we can pass, the danger of the black earth is definitely not something we can take lightly."

   Cecilia’s words clearly remind everyone that the road ahead is not a dead end, but if you take it lightly, you will still die.

Behind   , the howls of wolves came and went one after another, and even a few more high-pitched roars.

  Hearing these wolf howls, everyone couldn't help but start to rejoice. Xiao En's judgment was really accurate, and even the fear of the black earth was not so strong.

  Of course, Du Luen is the same.

  After all, as citizens of the Kingdom of Puerto Rico, most of the people of Puerto Rico have seen the land of the black soil with their own eyes, so naturally they have a fuller understanding of the fear of this land. And Du Luen's understanding of this land is even more in-depth than the ordinary citizens of the Kingdom of Portoroa, because he is an officially registered pioneer of the Pioneer Guild, and has once entered the black land to fight experience.

  This time because it was a full rush, coupled with the lack of harassment from Warcraft, the team's forward speed was a bit faster than before.

  However, everyone can still perceive the changes along the way.

  The scenery along the way became more and more withered: the huge trees that grew extremely luxuriantly in the Starfall Forest have disappeared, replaced by dead trees whose branches and leaves have fallen. Looking around, the bare and dead trees in the field of vision make people feel chills. Coupled with the silent environment, it puts heavy pressure on everyone, as if there is an invisible huge mouth in front of the darkness. Want to swallow everyone up.

  As the team progressed, the ground was no longer hard ground, but a pitch-black mud ground like scorched earth, as if the nutrients from the entire earth had been extracted. At this time, the soundless environment is also a little more audible-the pattering and pattering of the team stepping on the mud, like a urging bell ringing again and again, all the nerves of everyone Taut. In the environment where there should be no wind, there is always the whining sound of the wind blowing over the dry tree, squeezing everyone's spirits a little bit.

However, everyone has not fully adapted to the current environment, and they ushered in a new challenge: the low-temperature air pressure made everyone feel cold in their hands and feet. Even the hands holding the sword and the shield became a bit tingling and sore.

  Du Luen's eyes sharpened.

  He glanced at Sean, wondering why Sean didn’t give a reminder at this time, knowing that when they feel the low temperature, it means they have entered the black soil. And within the scope of the black soil, the spirit will be eroded by the dark power all the time, and the will is easily disintegrated without reminding and paying attention.

  At the moment Du Luen was thinking, the team happened to pass a dead tree, and a dark shadow suddenly rushed out from behind the dead tree.

At the moment of seeing this black shadow, everyone in the team was lost for a moment. No matter how fast Du Luen and Old Peter reacted, the trance of nearly a second just now cannot be reversed. . By the time the two people reacted, Sombra had already approached the leader, Shaun, who was only less than a centimeter away from him, and even if the speed of the two was fast, there was no time to support them.

   But at this moment, a light blue brilliance suddenly swept out of Xiao En's hand.

  Everyone only heard a slight "click", the black shadow had fallen beside Xiao En, and a skeleton head fell from mid-air, slowly rolling to Du Luen's feet. At this moment, everyone could see that the black figure that threw out was actually a skeleton.

Xiao En slowly slashed out the sword and let it go, his face solemn, and he said solemnly: "Welcome to the world of darkness and death, the land of black soil.... I only have one piece of advice for you. Stay vigilant enough. At the same time pay attention to your feet and the shadows of dead trees, because that is where the enemy likes to stay. Believe your companions, there will be someone to pay attention to you out of the corner of your eye, because we are a team team."

  At this moment, Du Luen finally knew why Shaun didn’t remind everyone at the beginning.

  Because in many cases, actual actions are far more convincing than words.

  Just glance at the current team, you can know that the spiritual impact that was originally brought by entering the black soil has disappeared without a trace at this moment, but instead is an elite team full of cohesion and vigilance! ;
