Heart of Empire Chapter 126: Cross the mountains

One hundred percent guarantee that there will be no problems along the way? No one dared to say this. But at least, Dane is absolutely sure that walking through the Broken Dragon Peak passage he designed must be much more reliable than piercing through the orc army head-on.

After finally confirming the problem of the route, the whole army set off again just after dawn on the second day.

On the first day after embarking on the journey, the Eastern Expedition Army felt the deep malice from Broken Dragon Peak, for no other reason, this mountain road was too difficult to walk.

Broken Dragon Peak is the collective name for the mountainous area at the southernmost end of the Central Mountain Range. At the beginning, the meaning of Broken Dragon Peak only refers to the abrupt, cloud-like peak in the north of everyone's line of sight. It is said that many years ago, there were legends of dragons haunting the Broken Dragon Peak. In addition, few people who approached Broken Dragon Peak could come back alive, which further strengthened the reliability of this statement. Later, this name gradually evolved into a general term for the entire mountain range.

Of course, it is impossible for the Eastern Expeditionary Army to head north desperately, and really step into the territory of the adult green dragon Ignir. It is said that at the highest point of Broken Dragon Peak, there is not only this green dragon living there, there may be other giant dragons, and there is even an entire dragon kingdom on it.

It's just that these are just legends, and no one can come up with real proof. Even Jieer, who has lived in the Duanlongfeng mountain area for hundreds of years, has only seen Ignir at most. Even in Dane's system map module, there is no further and more marked range of other dragon activities.

Dane is somewhat skeptical about the claim that there is a kingdom of dragons on Broken Dragon Peak. He wasn't interested in messing with dragons, one or many. Let other idiots get the title of Dragon Slayer Warrior, he has no interest at all—at least not now.

After setting foot on the mountainous area of ​​Broken Dragon Peak, the target of the Eastern Expeditionary Army turned directly to the southeast. According to their current marching direction and speed, Dane can roughly calculate by using his own map module that if he continues to move forward for six days, he can basically cross the entire mountainous area.

This road is not the shortest, nor is it the smoothest, but it must be the most suitable for the more than 3,000 of them. If you choose the shortest route in a straight line, there are too many stone-scale cliffs in the middle, and even some extreme terrains, even an elite team, is not sure that they can walk over it, let alone a 3,000-strong army with luggage. And if you choose the gentlest road, although the mountain road is much easier to walk, there should not be too many territories of poisonous insects and beasts to pass along the way, and the length of the entire route will be more than doubled. More importantly, It is also possible to enter the range marked by the map module as the territory of the green dragon, which is definitely not worth the loss.

But it's just the current road, which still makes the soldiers complain endlessly.

An obvious manifestation is that the marching speed of the army has slowed down. On the way from White Wolf Fort to Broken Dragon Peak, the Eastern Expeditionary Army can even march at a high-intensity marching speed of more than 70 kilometers a day for four consecutive days. However, during the whole morning of the first day on Broken Dragon Peak, the army only ran about ten kilometers, and the physical exhaustion was even worse than walking in the wasteland. Seeing how tired the soldiers under him were, they had to extend the half-hour rest to two hours.

And it was during this rest period that Dane's troubles came.

At this time, Dane had just had a meal with Delin, Faro and the others, leaning against a rock and closing his eyes to recuperate. Not long after closing his eyes, he heard footsteps.

Opening his eyes, he saw Jieer, Radis, Chapple, and a brown-haired man whom Dane didn't know, but who clearly wore the logo of the Pure Sword Mercenary Corps, coming hand in hand.

As soon as he covered his head, Dane basically guessed what they wanted to say without the four of them opening their mouths.

Sure enough, when the four came over, Jieer spoke first.

The head of the Smir Mercenary Group first introduced Dane to a person he didn't know next to him; "This is Irons, one of the deputy heads of the Pure Sword Mercenary Group. He came from the capital Cinderella. Although Irons is young, he is already a high-level shield knight."

Dane gave this guy a strange look, he was quite familiar with the Pure Sword Mercenary Group. He basically knew not only Alexandrina, but also many more respectable characters in the Pure Sword Squad. But I have never heard that there is such a number one figure as Irons in Pure Sword, and he is also a high-level shield knight.

From the looks of it, it should be a newcomer to Pure Sword, and then maybe because of strength, or maybe because of other reasons, he took the position of deputy head.

Of course, these are just Dane's guesses. In fact, he didn't care much about Irons, he was just a guy with a strength of around tenth level. In the circle of mercenaries, he might be regarded as an out-and-out master, but he really couldn't get into Dane. Dharma eye.

What he cared more about was the sentence that Jieer said after introducing the person:

"Dane~IndoMTL.com~ After such a long journey, you can also see that the road is really difficult to walk, and we don't know what threats are waiting for us. I really I don't know, where did you get such strong confidence to guarantee the safety of this journey?"

Dane didn't get up, still leaning against the huge rock. He sized up the four people in front of him, thinking about how to deal with it.

Yesterday, he had already fooled around for the time being by saying 'I have mastered a safe passage to Broken Dragon Peak'. But, obviously, Jier and the others didn't believe it—otherwise, it would be impossible for the four of them to come together. You know, not to mention the two mercenaries Jayer and Irons, Chapple and Reddis, but apart from Morno, they are the second and third figures in White Wolf Castle. Don't look at the two of them, although they haven't spoken for a while, but since they came with Jieer, it is tantamount to making their position clear.

So, Dane changed his mind and thought of another saying: "General Morneau has a high-precision magic map, you all know it?"

Jere didn't know, Irons didn't know, but of course Chapple and Radis knew. So, Dane continued: "It just so happens that I still have a high-precision biological distribution map of Broken Dragon Peak in my hand. The safe passage I chose was that General Morno and I strictly followed these two maps. jointly produced."

"It is absolutely impossible to change the road. Besides, do you... have any other opinions?"
