The Dark Land falls between the trading capital of Sadin and the Iron Spear Ridge. There are only a few ways to reach the two places. , One passes through the dark land, pays the head tax, usually not embarrassed by the bandits in the fierce land. The two are going through the borders of the commercial road, and the commercial road bypasses the dark places, but it takes a few more days. The third method is waterway, but the waterway is not available throughout the year, and the port and docks are limited, and it often takes more detours than the commercial road. If it is a short-distance business trip, rarely choose water.

So for most caravans, the only choices are the first two methods. The vast majority of people choose to go through the Dark Land, even though there is a poll tax and there are risks. But commercial road may not be a good choice. When border commercial road passes through different territories, it also needs to pay customs duties to the local lords. Tariffs in some territories are not cheaper than dark places, or even higher.

The only guarantee is that there will be no bandits on the business road.

The dark place is one of the three most fierce places in the empire, and thieves are like hairs. But in the end, the reason why this dark world can exist to this day is because of the imperial inaction. With the strength of the Balkan Empire, any army sent out is enough to smooth the dark place. This is a truth that can't be more simple. However, until now, the dark place still exists, which makes many people confused.

In fact, after the imperial inaction, what is involved is the long-standing power structure of this human empire. Several elite divisions of the Balkan Empire were guarded at the frontiers or border gates and other throat places. The military affairs were busy, and they would not move to other places. Therefore, in a place like the Dark Land, if you want to wipe out the thieves in it, the army of the nearby lord must be used, and it will become a local affair.

In this way, it gives the interested person a lot of maneuverability. After all, the imperial royal family's control over lords everywhere is limited, and the empire can only intervene forcibly unless the lord commits major dereliction of duty like the black twilight. It is not difficult to imagine why the former Prime Minister Nebot’s policy of depriving the troops of various territories was introduced, and it was strongly opposed by the whole country. The reason lies here. If the policy of cutting the army is implemented, the interests of the lords in various places will suffer a huge blow, and the empire's control over the lords will be strengthened as never before, and will no longer be as loose as the present structure.

The dark place is preserved under the power structure of the empire through the manipulation of some big figures. Naturally, this place has also become an important tool for those big men to seek private wealth.

In the dark place, there are so-called agents. These agents usually serve the big people, convey their meanings, and communicate with the band of thieves in the dark places, playing the role of a bearing.

Meggis is one of the many agents in the Darklands, and he is also the man who brought an important turning point in Joey's life.

If it hadn't been for Meggis, there would be no such thing as Joey the Undead in the Dark Land. At that time, Joey was in his prime, and Wolf Warriors was only a second-rate bandit with dozens of murderers, and Joey hadn't even broken through the twentieth level. Had it not been for that sunny afternoon, he had promised to cooperate with Meggis, he would not have received a steady stream of support. The big man behind Meggis gave him equipment, horses, and vital things.

The source crystal stone!

It was an item made by a royal alchemist, and the recipe came from an ancient technology that had been lost. The source crystal stone can provide the user with a large amount of non-attribute source power, so as to instantly fill up the source power required for a level or even a gap of several levels. Usually this kind of marketable and priceless thing is only used by the children of the royal family and the rich and powerful, let alone people like Joey get a source stone, they have never even heard of it.

With the support of the boss behind Megis, Joey was able to break through the 20th mark in one fell swoop, and the wolf was able to grow rapidly. In the end, in just ten years, Joey became the number one powerhouse in the Dark Land, and Wolf Warriors also became one of the big four powers.

It is no exaggeration to say that everything that Joey and Wolf Warrior now have is based on Meggis and the big man behind the representative.

Megis has rarely come to the dark places in recent years, so as soon as Gang passed through, Joey became a little more nervous for no reason. This agent will be here now, and something must have happened.

In a hall of the Temple of the Undead, Joey met Meggis. He is still the same, wearing a fur cloak that is not expensive but warm enough. Even at this moment when winter has passed, Meggis, who has lived in the north, still can't take off his thick winter clothes, which seems to have become a habit of him. Joey was even in a trance. When he first met Meggis, he was a handsome middle-aged man. But now, he is already an old man in sixties. And because there is no source of power, he is much older than Joey.

His head is covered with cream and hair, and his handsome face has already climbed into wrinkles. Bend down and leaned on crutches, Megis was too old to walk.

Joy exhaled a depressed breath and opened his arms to greet him: "Mr. Meggis, my dear friend, why are you here at this time."

Megis grinned and revealed two rows of yellow teeth: "While I am not dead, I want to see you again. Joey, you are the biggest gain in my life. Probably after this meeting, next time, we can only See you in hell."

Joy embraced the old man's shoulders enthusiastically, and said to Gunn on one side: "Go and prepare the best wine for me. Tonight we have to prepare the grandest dinner for Mr. Meggis, the forever friend of Wolf Warriors."

Meggis didn't stop it, because it was the courtesy he deserved.

After Gang En went down, the old man put away his smile and said: "I smell a fishy smell, and the smell of herbs. Why, your old thing is hurt? Who hurt you?"

"It's just a small matter."

Meggis shook his head: "Even if you were shopping back with someone, there would be no smell of herbs on your body. Now you need herbs for healing, Joey, we are all old."

Joy was silent.

Meggis slapped haha ​​and said, "Whatever it is, even the big figures in the Ten Saints, but they only live longer than us, they will be old and die. We have no feelings. "He tapped Joey's chest with a cane and said: "This time, apart from seeing you the old guy for the last time, that adult has a message for you."

Joy squinted his eyes: "My lord hasn't spoken for years."

"After all, this time the matter is very important." Meggis shrugged, "Otherwise, I don't have to crawl out of the coffin and run like this." Then the agent lowered his voice and said, "My lord wants you to kill. A person, at all costs, even if you destroy all the wolves, you must strive to kill this person in the dark place."

"What!" Joey shook his whole body and exclaimed in exclamation.
