Lord of War
68. The Canyon Rift
In the end, Tedes didn't stay in the Void City for two days. The entire army had just set up camp and thought they could rest, but they had to dismantle and go on the road. Already moaning.
However, Xiao En and the others were not in a good mood when they thought that the Peace Council might intervene in the territorial disputes for arbitration.
The Peace Council can definitely be called one of the most powerful forces in the world.
They do not belong to any power or country on the continent, and they do not aim to make profits like the Union of Chambers of Commerce in the trade capital. They are completely committed to world peace. It is precisely because of the ideal of the Peace Council that various countries and forces hate this organization, because in the eyes of the entire Miracle Continent, the members of this organization are all lunatics.
But in fact, the powerhouses of this lunatic organization are also the most powerful of all forces on the entire continent, and their tentacles are all over the entire Miracle Continent. However, after experiencing a joint siege by more than a dozen forces, the Peace Council has really restrained a lot. At present, most of the time it appears as a peace arbitrator, specializing in arbitrating disputes about the territories of various countries. Reduce wars in order to protect the peace of Miracle Continent.
But Sean is very clear that the Peace Council appears as an arbiter on the surface, but behind the scenes there is a military organization directly under the heresy jury of the Church of the Lord of Morning Light. The name seems to be Harmony Libra, with The golden scales and green branches and leaves are used as the coat of arms. The highest person in charge of this military organization directly under it is a person who claims to be a peace envoy. The exact identity is not even discovered by the sophisticated party in the game.
But in the game back then, some players got mixed into this organization, and they cried.
Because the Peace Council actually has mandatory terms of service, and after joining, it is not allowed to leave, and the peace council is pissed. Will there be fewer offenders? Almost at the moment of joining, all the forces in the Miracle Continent were hostile, except for forces that did not fight much, such as the Druid Council and the Scroll Association, and some chambers of commerce remained neutral.
Especially with the obvious dark forces such as Deaththorn, Black Legion, and Medusa Chamber of Commerce, they are even more deadly enemies.
No matter how you look at it, Sean doesn't want to offend this organization prematurely, because this is a group of lunatics with no emotions at all.
In the game forum, some players held several times about the most hated existence in the game. The Peace Council has never been on the candidate list, because if it was there, it would be the well-deserved number one without exception.
Apart from not wanting to offend this organization, Sean also has no intention of cooperating with them at all.
This is basically an existence where whoever touches it dies. It is even more terrifying and terrifying than those cult organizations.
The best way to avoid dealing with this troublesome organization is to take advantage of it.
In other words, it is to get the territorial documents.
Therefore, after the final discussion, it was decided that Asuna should come forward to negotiate with the Dabion Kingdom, and this document must be obtained no matter what. Otherwise, if the Kingdom of Dabion is playing tricks, the Peace Council will formally intervene in the arbitration at that time. Then there will definitely be a "compulsory honeymoon period". If that happens. All of Sean's current actions will be in vain. I believe Asuna is definitely unwilling to see such a situation, so she will definitely go all out.
As for Sean, he can't intervene in this matter for the time being, and he still has a lot of things to do.
On the fifth day after the negotiation ended, Sean and Cecilia left Panda with a small team. Continue to go south from Panda Town, preparing to enter the wild land through the canyon rift.
This time, Sean didn't go to catch slaves, but wanted to see if this wild land was exactly the same as the wild land in his memory.
Except for the twenty-two slave catchers who have more than five years of rich slave hunting experience, the accompanying personnel. There are also forty bearmen, forty elite northern barbarians who were in charge of guarding Black Swan Castle, and Tini, a total of one hundred and five people. Except for those slave catchers, the equipment of the bearmen and the northern barbarians are all standard and standardized. The equipment of the bearmen is forty impact shields and a heavy hammer; A bow, two pots of arrows, and three fine iron short spears that can be thrown.
In addition, according to the requirements of the leader of Andre's twenty-two slave catchers, some other things were also prepared, including a large amount of dry food, drinking water and some things that are very useful in wild lands . Naturally, all these things are carried by the bears. Anyway, these simple and honest big fools don't care at all that these impact shields, which are too heavy even for the barbarians in the north, are like toys in their hands. , and even have the strength to lift the hammer to fight.
This is a truly elite force.
But it's a pity that Sean's system doesn't seem to recognize these people as an army, because no matter how Sean named the team, the Eye of Reality didn't have any data about the army, which made Sean really a little Helpless, so it can only be treated as an adventure team. But in this way, as the leader of this team, Sean's passive skill [Survival from Desperation] can naturally play a role.
If it was in the past, this skill would naturally have a great effect, but now the effect of this skill has lost nearly half of its effect. Because Sean is already a lord, unless there are some accidents that he doesn't want to see, how can they lack food and water?
After a simple resupply from Panda Town, they set off again. After nearly half a month of trekking, Xiao En and others finally came to the Canyon Rift.
The Canyon Rift is a canyon formed by cutting off mountains, but the mountain is extremely steep and precipitous. Even the orcs who are famous for their endurance can hardly climb such a valley, and the valley does not only have one mountain wall It is so steep and steep, but the whole mountain is like this, the land is red and not a blade of grass grows, and the rocks are almost as sharp as swords, even if they are only on the mountain path of the canyon, these sharp stones can still be seen.
It is said that even a bear man with rough skin and rough skin cannot resist the cutting of these sharp rocks. Even if you just reach out and touch it lightly, a scar will be left immediately. Moreover, it is impossible to find any food here in the canyon. If you do not bring your own food and drinking water, it is simply a dream to pass this canyon that takes about a week to complete.
It is precisely because of this that the Canyon Rift is called one of the six gateways to the wild land.
Looking from a distance, the mountain path of the Xiadi Rift Valley looks like a scene of a line of sky, but when you get closer, you find that the width of this mountain path is far beyond imagination. At least it is no problem to accommodate hundreds of people walking side by side. .
Although Panda Territory is not considered a fertile territory, the land is not particularly barren either.
It's just that it was originally a green land of grassland terrain. When it grew to the front of the canyon, it was abruptly blocked, as if there was a death line separating the two worlds of yin and yang.
One step difference, but there are two completely different worlds, barren like blood and green like jade.
"My lord, please put it on." Andre handed a hooded cloak to Sean. "It's windy and sandy inside, if you don't wear this, it's easy to get scratched."
Sean took the cloak. Then he put it on, and the other slave catchers had already finished wearing it, and they were assisting Andre in distributing cloaks to the northern barbarians. For the northern barbarians and ordinary people, although the wild land is not really a wild place, the climate and environment are indeed relatively harsh, so naturally some protective measures are needed. Even if it is a tribe that was born and raised and lived in a barren land. Sometimes some thicker clothes are needed for protection.
The only ones that are immune are gray elves, barbarians and orcs.
After everyone put on the new cloak, Andre gave the order to move forward, and the twenty-one slave catchers dispersed skillfully immediately. Among them, the werewolf and several gray elves that Sean had seen before set off first, and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.
Sean knew that these people were the scouts who went out to investigate.
There is actually only one mountain path in the Canyon Rift, so if there are enemies, it is naturally unavoidable. However, judging from the actions of these werewolves and gray elves, it can be seen that Andre's slave hunting team is indeed very cautious and experienced. No wonder Vivian will keep this team. According to Sean's knowledge, very few slave hunting teams can be active in the wild land for more than two years. If they have more than three years of experience, they will usually be hired by other families with slave hunting teams, so it is hard for Sean to imagine such a situation. Zhi, a slave catcher who has more than five years of experience in living in a wild land, thinks that he has not been disbanded.
About two or three hundred meters into the Xiadi Rift Valley, the wind began to howl like a knife.
The reason why the stones in the mountain path are weathered so sharply has a lot to do with these strong winds. However, for ordinary people, it is a relatively threatening gust of wind, but for orcs, it is nothing. Of course, it is not comfortable enough, and the strength of this kind of gust of wind can be tolerated even by the barbarians of the Northland. It's just that as the mountain road gets deeper, the strong wind will become stronger, and even the orcs will have to tense up.
Sean and the others put down the veils on the hoods one after another.
Both the cloak and these black veils are not ordinary cloaks and veils, but a special one specially made to cope with the climate and environment of the wild land. The cloak looks ordinary, but it is actually made of a kind of warcraft's hard skin, which can effectively block the howling wind, and the inside is a kind of wild animal's soft fur, which will make you feel comfortable when you wear it. The interlayer between the fur and the down is specially tanned soft leather, which can effectively absorb the pressure brought by the strong wind.
And the black veil, also soaked in special magic potion and blessed with spells, will not block the wearer's line of sight, but it can effectively block the violent wind and sand, even in a sandstorm environment. . And the most important point is that this veil can also block the detection and sight of the outside world, that is to say, as long as the person wearing this cloak does not actively reveal his identity, outsiders will not be able to find out his gender, age, appearance and strength.
This is already a default unspoken rule for slave catchers in wild lands.
But at this moment, Andre suddenly raised a hand, and the whole team stopped immediately.
Sean followed Andre's gaze and saw a strange pattern on the ground.
Those are two circles, but they are one big and one small, with a cross drawn in the bigger circle. (To be continued) [] If you like this work, you are welcome to come to (m) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.

I will try to write out the updates of today's two chapters before noon, so that I can be more serious when I am busy with other work at night, and I don't have to worry about the updates here. ...Finally, ask for a few more monthly tickets.
