lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Knight's Journey!
In front of the rolling mountains, a ten-meter-high fence runs through it, separating the forest on the side of the mountain from the road on this side.
Smoky Crystal Mountain Range Station, where a full two thousand imperial soldiers are stationed.
Showing the mission statement issued by the Princeton Royal Academy and paying the taxes for entering the station, Qiao Jin and his team were allowed to enter.
Although it is an ordinary post in the saline-alkali forest, the completely militarized management rules make everyone who enters here unconsciously infected by it. They have their chests straightened up and respect the mighty power of the empire.
Yesterday, Locke just learned that the salt forest they are going to enter is a place where super-order beasts exist. The Omor Empire, as early as hundreds of years ago, dispatched heavy troops to group the salt forest. Surrounded.
Those fences strictly limit the boundary between the monsters inside the saline forest and ordinary people outside. Through the breath of power that is constantly emitted in the station, no one will doubt that as long as there are monsters who dare to cross the thunder pool, welcome Theirs is a devastating blow.
In fact, not only the saline-alkali forests, including the Shiwanda Mountains in the north, the Southern Cross Forest, the Morre Plateau in the northwest, and the coast of Baikal in the east, the Omor Empire has heavily troops in these areas.
It's just that it is possible that the saline forest is too close to Princeton to receive this higher standard of treatment.
The strength of Tier Beasts is enough to slaughter the city and destroy the town. That Super Tier Beast will launch Weilai. It is estimated that the main cities of local provinces will suffer.
Their destination this time is in the outer area of the central part of the saline forest, where most of the monsters are at the intermediate level. Unless they are particularly lucky, they will encounter advanced monsters.
Both Tier Beasts and Super Tier Beasts live in the central swamp area of the saline forest. They are tens of thousands of miles away from their mission location, so don’t worry.
After a day of repairing the post in the Smoky Crystal Mountains, everyone went straight into the saline forest.
Because of the swamps and wetlands, the horse-drawn carriages were parked at the inn, and a group of people entered on foot.
Walking also has an advantage, that is, there is little movement, as long as you are cautious, it is enough to avoid most of the dangers.
Holding the map purchased from the Smoky Crystal Mountain Station, Locke stood on the tree, looked up at the general terrain around, and determined the direction before jumping out of the tree.
"To the southeast, I have to walk another five kilometers!" Locke said to Qiao Jin who was walking over. Although their mission location was in the outskirts of the saline forest, it would take at least a week to arrive.
The places marked on the way are the camping sites they discussed last night.
"Okay, you lead the way, let's go." Qiao Jin waved to Angelina and the others, and followed Locke forward.
The saline forest is very different from some forest land that Locke entered before. The trees here, the lower ones only reach Locke’s knees, most of them are cacti and shrubs, and the taller ones can reach more than ten meters. It takes a lot of effort to climb up.
The salient features of the environment exposed the concealment problem of the group of people. Today, they have hit and missed and broke into the territory of two groups of demonized creature families.
These demonized creatures living in the periphery of the saline forest, there are few lone rangers or very strong single creatures. They live in groups as a unit, which is their main way of survival.
The first wave is fire ants, which are dwarf creatures. When Chris accidentally stepped on one of their dens, Ullala suddenly appeared in a large area. Fortunately, there are not many members of this fire ant group. , After Dini and Mina cast several water and cloud magics one after another, they finally dispersed them.
Successful contact in crisis did not let everyone relax. Fire ants are such weak creatures because of their large numbers and strong fire resistance. The strongest of the three teams of Locke, Qiao Jin and Angelina are not special. Good way.
But it was also this encounter, letting Locke know why Mina was the slowest in the squad of magicians.
She turned out to be majoring in cloud magic, not to mention the cloud system, it's the upper branch system-Qi system, which is also the most unwelcome one among many magicians.
No matter how rich the collection of magic books of the Imperial Royal Academy, there are few records of this type of magic. Mina can only take it step by step.
The second wave of demonic creature attacks was a small tribe of scorched salt wolves. Locke liked wolves very much. Moonlight wolves had a particularly deep impression on him and killed two or three on the spot.
The few scorched salt wolves saw that something was wrong and immediately slipped their feet. In the muddy and swampy places like the salt-alkali forest, which was their home field, they disappeared in a slip of smoke.
The heroic appearance of Rocker's sword and slaughter of three scorched salt wolves also surprised everyone in the team. They are not afraid of creatures like scorched salt wolves, but as a gregarious wolf belonging to a beast, few people Will choose single hard.
The two attacks in a day were just an episode in the progress of the mission. They had to reach a leeward cliff before dark, which was the camp they marked last night.
Angelina, the little scorpion dragon, was simply released today by Angelina. The swamp is the favorite residence of the scorpion dragon. As soon as the little scorpion dragon came out, he was very excited and ran around in big strides, yes. Curious about everything.
You know, this scorpion dragon was hatched in the main city of Princeton, and it can’t even get out of the gate in the yard. Strictly speaking, this is the first time it has come into contact with a new environment, or Its favorite wetland environment.
Originally, the little scorpion was so noisy that Angelina wanted to take it back. Unexpectedly, because the little scorpion belonged to the higher-ranking beasts, it would be very important to the lower-ranking beasts and poisonous insects. Deterrence.
Since the little scorpion dragon came out, there have been almost no creatures such as poisonous insects and ants around. If it weren't for the bones hidden under the bushes and the ubiquitous cobwebs to remind everyone, they thought they had come to an ordinary forest.
Since the potential threat was driven away, everyone simply let Little Scorpion Dragon play by themselves.
The hideous appearance of the little scorpion dragon and the sharp blue barbs did not scare everyone, but attracted the great interest of Joe King, Chris and others.
As magicians, Qiao Jin and others are very curious about creatures such as pets. They have not found a suitable beast, so they have not signed a contract so far. Chris and Bob, the two knights, were killed by the little scorpion dragon. The cool appearance attracts.
"It would be great if I had such a mount." Bob looked at Angie playing there with eyes. Locke imagined Bob, who was less than seven meters tall, riding on Angie, who was less than two meters away. , What a picture.
Even the little girl, Dainyi, dare to touch Angie’s head. Angie is two years old, and a child with intelligence close to seven or eight years old can feel it right away, so let it be. Everyone touched it back and forth.
Among them, Locke and Angelina secretly gave it an order not to move, but Angie's venom can poison the intermediate beasts.
