Mortal Epic of Douluo

The northern mountain range stretches for 1,800 miles, 80% of which is located in the Kingdom of Haagen-Dazs, and 20% is located in the Beiyuan Province of the Tiandou Empire. The average altitude of this section of the Beiyuan Province is less than one thousand meters, and it runs northwest-southeast.

, so instead of blocking the cold current from the Far North for the Northern Plains Province, it actually allowed the wind and snow to wreak havoc within its territory more smoothly and unhindered.

Atreus did not stay in Tianshui City. After meeting the person he wanted to see and getting the items in his plan, it was time for him to head to his next target location.

Fortunately, the day before Atreus and his party arrived at Tianshui City, there was no snow in the sky. In the following days, the weather was obviously getting warmer. The snow began to melt. Perhaps it was spring in Beiyuan Province.

It has really arrived.

However, the melting of the snow caused some troubles for Atreus and the others on their way forward. The road became muddy, the melted snow and mud were mixed together, and the ground became bumpy. Sometimes they had to get out of the car to push.

First heading west and then north, they arrived at the starting point of the eastern section of the Northern Mountains. They unloaded the carriage, because if they did not unload it at this time, the mountain roads later would force them to abandon the carriage. After unloading the carriage, they bought a horse locally.

Horses, one for Liu Yan, one for Fraser, Atreus and Oscar rode on the same horse, and then headed west along the south road of the mountain range.

Walking on the southern path of the Northern Mountains, Atreus recalled the scene when he followed the professor in his previous life while walking on the southern path of the Tianshan Mountains. However, the latitude of the northern mountains was even higher and the climate was colder. On the right were rolling mountains.

, to the left is a wasteland with no roosters crowing for a hundred miles.

People can often be seen on the South Road. After all, the North Plains Province has officially entered spring at this time, and merchants have begun to become active.

Although it is already the end of March, there is still the possibility of snowstorms again. However, these businessmen from the North Plains Province and the Haagen-Dazs Kingdom have already been unable to restrain their restless hearts and organized caravans to travel through the mountain roads.

among.

The sooner the goods are circulated to other places, the higher the profit will be. When the road is completely unblocked, the profit will not be so high. These merchants who risk their lives traveling between the two places bring grain, salt, wine,

Tea, gold, iron and other goods are transported to different regions. They are an indispensable middle and lower class group in society.

After traveling for an unknown number of days, four people and three horses arrived at a place called [Hujian Pass]. On the map, it is a vase-shaped canyon. The entrance to the eastern section of Hujian Pass is extremely narrow and curved, and can only accommodate one vehicle.

Fortunately, the four-foot-wide car is only two miles long. As long as you walk this distance, you can enter the relatively wide "bottle".

Arriving at Hujian Pass, Atreus walked alone at the front of the team, summoning his martial spirit at the same time. There were many east-west merchants traveling along the southern route of the Northern Mountains, and the risks they faced were not only natural, but also

At the same time, there are wild beasts, spirit beasts, and... people, or in other words, bandits.

Although the journey of traveling as a trader is difficult and dangerous, it is highly profitable, and the "occupation" that is more profitable than traveling as a trader is that of banditry.

Where there is business, there will be thieves.

Hujian Pass is obviously a good place to block roads and rob. The eastern section is long and narrow, and the western section also has a narrow opening. You only need to ambush in advance, close the door and beat the dogs, and you can get whatever you want.

So when he came to a place like this, Atreus was very alert, always paying attention to what was happening in front of him and above the canyon.

There seemed to be real movement ahead. Atreus gestured to the Frazier behind, telling her to stop where she was, while he groped forward alone to explore the situation.

After a while, a burst of conversation reached his ears from behind the corner ahead.

"Brother Six, do you think our deal can be successful?"

"Whether it will work or not is up to us. Anyway, big brother has already arranged everything that can be arranged. Whether it succeeds or not depends on God!"

"Hey, who doesn't want to eat fat sheep? But where there are fat sheep, there are always hounds. I'm afraid our nine wolves can't bite those dogs."

"If you can't bite, you have to bite! The last time we opened was seven months ago. If we continue like this, we will starve to death sooner or later! Don't forget, isn't Lao Ba's death just because we ran out of money?!"

"Laoba...Oh, sometimes I really regret it. Why did I take this path?"

"I regret having a ball?! Old Seven, we are all wanted people. Since we are on this road, even if there is a cliff in front of us, we have to fly over it!"

...

Atreus calmed down and restrained his body. He did not rush to observe the situation behind the corner, but after listening for a while, he confirmed that there were only two people in front of him.

He couldn't help but feel unlucky. When he came to a fork yesterday, because the road to Hujian Pass was shorter, taking the other road would require a detour of at least one-third longer, so he volunteered to take Oscar and the others on this road.

road. However, they never thought that they would actually encounter bandits. It was really a rooster giving New Year greetings to a weasel - and they fell into a trap.

While he was making calculations in his mind, a vision appeared, a firework rose in front of him, and the two bandits in front were suddenly startled.

"With these fireworks, it seems that Big Brother and his colleagues have a hard time cracking the bones. Sixth Brother, what should we do?"

"I can't care about that much anymore. This deal must be taken down, and we must go over and support it!"

"But won't we keep this promise?"

"I can't care much anymore, Lao Qi, activate your martial spirit and let's go!"

Then there was a wave of soul power. Based on perception alone, the two bandits were not strong. One was much weaker than him, and the other was slightly weaker than him.

When the two bandits completely disappeared from his consciousness, Atreus immediately retreated.

Fraser could tell at a glance that Atreus's demeanor was different from before, and immediately asked: "How is it? Is there something going on?"

"I found two robbers in front of me, but it seems that the target is not us, or they haven't discovered our existence yet. By the way, did you all see the fireworks just now?"

Everyone nodded.

"That's their partners asking for support. It seems that the target they intercepted is a bit difficult for them. The two bandits have already gone to support. What do you... think?"

Fraser replied: "You want to help, right?"

Atreus nodded and replied in a positive tone: "When the road is rough, I should draw my sword to help, but I led the wrong way, and I am afraid of making the same mistake again, so I listen to you."

"Do you know how many people there are? Also, do you know their strength?" It was Liu Yan who asked this question. He never talked nonsense.

"The two bandits said they were [Nine Wolfs], and they called them [Sixth Brother] and [Old Seventh]. The sixth brother's soul power is about the same as mine. He should be about the strength of a great soul master, and the seventh brother should be the middle one.

First-class soul masters. If they are ranked according to their strength, then there may be two who are weaker than the seventh one. The five above the sixth one should all be great soul masters. There may even be...

Soul Lord exists."

Atreus looked at his friends and saw that he was a quasi-great soul master at level 20 and had not yet attached a soul ring.

Oscar is a level 22 great soul master with no fighting ability.

Fraser's soul power is now level 23, his swordsmanship is superb, and he has no rivals in the academy except Liu Yan.

Liu Yan's soul power is the highest among the people, reaching level 25. He has both offense and defense, and is also the strongest combat power among the four.

Fraser gently stroked the [Rose] in his hand and said loudly: "Once you pass Hujian Pass, you will enter the Kingdom of Haggardas. Since I am a citizen of the Kingdom, I have to take action."

Two votes.

Fraser expressed his stance, and Oscar also spoke: "Arry, we are brothers. As long as you decide, I will definitely support you!"

The three of them looked towards Liu Yan.

Liu Yan always looked calm. He said word by word: "Their target is difficult. Together with us, we can fight."

In terms of being good at dancing, I am not as good as my elder brother; in terms of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I am not as good as my third brother; in terms of talent in cultivation, I am also far behind my younger sister.

The sect is based on business, and although the son is not talented, he still has great ambitions.

Therefore, I would like to personally pick up Douheng, go deep into the northern border, and open up trade routes.
