Lord of War
13. The land of black soil
"The land of black soil?"
Not everyone knows the meaning of the word "black soil".
Cecilia and Duroun would know, and Sean wouldn't be surprised at all. Because the term "black soil" was handed down by magicians, and the Kingdom of Portoroa was a country dominated by magic, it was not uncommon for Duluen to know that "black soil".
"You know that there is a land of black soil here, why didn't you tell us clearly at the beginning!" Duroen suddenly looked like a violent beast, the elegance and etiquette of aristocrats completely disappeared from him at this moment, "Do you know that the black soil is The danger of the land!"
"I know." Sean said calmly, "Remember what I told you? This is the Forest of Starfall, a place I know better than you."
"You..." Deterred by Sean's calm aura, Du Luen didn't know what to say for a while.
"What exactly is the land of black soil?" Old Peter also frowned. At this moment, he noticed the panic and fear in Duroen's heart.
The atmosphere became a bit gloomy.
Fear began to breed in the crowd.
"Let's go first, talk while walking on the road." Sean didn't answer immediately, but urged everyone to get ready, and then set off immediately.
Although after the development and revolution of "Prosperity", "Miracle" has indeed been improved to a large extent, especially in terms of AI, it has achieved the ultimate. However, there is still a big gap between the game and the reality. At least in the game, Sean has never heard of anyone who would be treated so grandly by the wind-patterned black wolf clan, even if there is a DUBUFF with "group hatred". , and it is far from being strong enough to require the wind-patterned black wolf king to personally take action.
Sure enough, there is still a big difference between games and reality.
The team soon embarked on the journey again, perhaps caused by the changes in Cecilia and Duroun's attitudes, and the entire team was in an extremely tense atmosphere. Sean knows that this will speed up the physical and mental consumption of the team, but at this time, he has no time to take into account the psychological adjustment of this aspect, because he himself must be highly focused to prevent possible occurrences. any surprises.
However, if Sean didn't answer, it didn't mean that the rest of the team would be silent because of this.
Although Harley's body is a little fat, he has lost some weight in the past few days. Although he is still out of breath when running, he can at least say a few words: "Mr. Is... what?"
Du Luen's face struggled for a while, and 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, the world will no longer have any light, and even the order of the old era will completely collapse..."
Hearing Duluen's words, Sean couldn't help but think of the official background setting of "Miracle".
At the end of the Twilight Era, Wanmin's hatred of the gods has become too great to be repaired, so Wanmin no longer believes in the gods, and the angry gods will punish the gods, and the whole world will become chaotic. And because they no longer believed in the gods, the people who lost their divine power had to start developing in other areas. They began to come into contact with the field of elements, so that they could display magical means without the help of divine power, which made the gods feel panic and fear, so in order to re-establish the majesty of the gods, the gods finally launched a protracted war with the people.
It was a lose-lose war that historians call "Ragnarok".
After the war, the gods no longer existed, but the people did not usher in their so-called ideal world. The alienation power left over from divine power and elements,
The order of the entire world has been broken, and the protection of the gods has been lost, and the sky has lost its color since then. Desolation and ruins have become the most common scenes in the entire world, just like the remaining ashes after the flames burn.
Because of this, this era is called the Age of Ashes.
"In the Age of Ashes, the world did not have any light, and even the air was turbid." Duroen said in a deep voice, "but these are not the most terrifying, what is truly terrifying is the ubiquitous dark power in the world. Under the continuous invasion, any species will be deprived of life, and only some places in the entire world that still retain the power of the remaining order can barely survive."
"These places are called arks." Cecilia took Duluen's words softly, "After all, the gods have not abandoned all people. At the last moment of the war, the god of order may have realized something, he In the end, he sacrificed himself and turned into countless revival fires.... The reason why the ark can let the people continue to live is because there are revival fires in the ark, and only the power of order generated by the revival fire can resist the invasion of dark forces ."
"The places invaded by dark forces are called black soil." Duroen glanced at Cecilia, and he was also a little curious about Cecilia's identity, of course, he was more surprised by her. Talented, "You don't know that the land of black soil is normal, after all, the other places adjacent to the kingdom of Serian are rich lands and powerful countries. But in fact, there are still many places of black soil in this world, such as Portoro A little further east of the Kingdom of Ya is the land of black soil, a place without light and heat, let alone food."
"Then why don't we just bury the fire of recovery?"
"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 of the black earth can be restored. In this world Above, there is an organization called the Pioneers Guild. Their responsibility is to find the fire of recovery, to restore the land of black soil to a land of order, so that people can go to reclaim new land and build new homes. However, the land of black soil is also very Dangerous, and according to the strength of the dark power generated by the dark vortex, the dark power on the black soil is also divided into strong and weak. ... Some places where the dark power is relatively weak, even we can go, and some dark power In a relatively strong place, even the legendary powerhouse would not dare to trespass."
Having said this, Cecilia paused for a while, and then said in an unquestionable tone: "Since Sean dares to bring us, it proves that this black soil can be passed through even by us. . . . ...but even if we can get through, the dangers of the Black Earth are by no means something we can take lightly."
Cecilia's words clearly reminded everyone that the road ahead is not a dead end, but if you take it lightly, you will still die.
Behind him, the howls of the wolves came one after another, and even mixed with a few more high-pitched roars.
Hearing these wolf howls, everyone couldn't help but start to rejoice. Sean's judgment was accurate, and even the fear of the land of black soil was not so strong.
Of course, Duroun is the same.
After all, as citizens of the Kingdom of Portoroa, most of the people of Portoroa have seen the land of black soil with their own eyes, so they naturally have a relatively full understanding of the fear of this land. And Duroen's understanding of this land is even deeper than that of ordinary people of the Kingdom of Portoroa, because he is a pioneer officially registered by the Pioneer Guild, and he once had the experience of entering the land of black soil to fight.
This time, because it was going all out, and there was less harassment from the monsters, the team's advance speed was a little faster than before.
However, people can still notice the changes along the way.
The scenery along the way became more and more withered: the huge trees that grew extremely lush in the Starfall Forest disappeared, replaced by dead trees whose branches and leaves had fallen. Looking around, the bare withered trees in the field of vision make people feel chills, and the environment is so silent that it adds to the heavy pressure on everyone, as if there is an invisible huge mouth in front of the darkness. To devour everyone.
And as the team progressed, the ground was no longer hard ground, but dark mud like scorched earth, as if the nutrients of the entire earth had been extracted cleanly. The originally silent environment also made a little more noise at this time - the abnormal sound of the team stepping on the mud, like a bell sounding again and again, sent everyone's nerves. All stretched tight. It should have been a windless environment, but there was always the whirring sound of the wind blowing from the dead trees, squeezing the spirit of everyone a little bit.
However, everyone has not fully adapted to the current environment, so they ushered in a new challenge: the low temperature air pressure made everyone feel cold in their hands and feet, and the armor, which had no weight at all, became abnormally heavy at this moment. Even the hands holding the sword and the shield became a little numb and sore.
Duroen's eyes became sharp.
He glanced at Sean and wondered why Sean didn't remind him at this time, knowing that when they felt the low temperature air pressure, it meant that they entered the land of black soil. Within the scope of the Black Earth, the spirit will be eroded by dark forces all the time, and the will is easily disintegrated without warning and attention.
Just as Duroen was thinking about it, 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 dark shadow, everyone in the team was lost for a moment. No matter how fast Duluen and old Peter reacted, the trance for nearly a second just now was irreversible. . By the time the two men reacted, Sombra had already found the leader, Sean, who was less than a centimeter away from him. No matter how fast the two of them were, it was too late to support him.
But at this moment, a light blue brilliance suddenly swept out of Sean's hand.
Everyone only heard a small sound of "click", the black shadow had already fallen beside Sean, a skull fell from mid-air, and slowly rolled to Du Luen's feet. Only then did everyone see clearly that the black shadow that was thrown out was actually a skeleton.
Sean slowly dropped the sword that he slashed out, his face solemn, and 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 shadow of the dead tree, because that is the favorite place for the enemy to stay. Trust your companion, there will be someone to pay attention to you where you cannot see out of the corner of your eye, because we are one team."
At this moment, Duroen finally knew why Sean didn't remind everyone at the beginning.
Because many times, actual actions are far more persuasive than words.
As long as you glance at the current team, you can know that the spiritual influence brought by entering the land of black soil has disappeared without a trace at this moment, and it is replaced by an elite team full of cohesion and vigilance!
