Lord Helanza

The old village chief, Bright, limped and left the reservoir construction site, leaving only a rickety back in the night.

Wait until the Chief Bright disappeared completely in the darkness, Andrew and he walked over from the security post, perhaps because of the power of the "Rage Flame" magic pattern that allowed him to break through the last level. Recently Andrew's strength gained the second advanced by leaps and bounds growth.

The first time was during the awakening period of the'Berserker Soul', and that period of strength soared until his breakthrough turned around and then gradually stopped.

And now with the help of the power of the "Rage Flame" magic pattern, Andrew feels that he can break through the shackles of the intermediate level in one breath, and become a warrior in the later stage of the revolution.

The instructor in the military camp once said that if you want to be promoted to the second rank powerhouse, you must understand your own qi in your body, and the warrior needs to understand'anger', and the martial artist understands'Battle Qi', Swordsman Inspires the'sword qi', and Knight needs to awaken the'halo'. The second powerhouse in the army is as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. Andrew has never understood what anger is. Is it just arousing anger from the bottom of his heart?

Andrew, who has reached the mid-turn strength, seems to have a sudden enlightenment recently. The so-called "anger" can also be said to be a "fighting intent". After reaching a certain level, he can improve his strength, agility, and physique in an all-round way. .

I own the'Berserker Soul'. It is said that once you understand anger, you can form a'furious' posture. It is said that this level of warrior is tireless on the battlefield and feels no pain, even if it is in the orc tribe. The wolf cavalry is not an opponent of Berserker.

"Has your recent strength been promoted again?"

Andrew scratched his head and smiled honestly.

He is wearing heavy armor, and it is a little inconvenient to sit down. He simply sits on the ground, with one leg stretched out, one leg slightly bent, one hand supported behind him, looking up at the night sky, and entering nine After the month, Desolate Land will enter the drier season again.

The stars are shining in the night sky, and there is no cloud.

Andrew said to Surdak:

"Yesterday, a veteran of the militia battalion ran to deliver a letter, saying that they had found traces of the rebels in the Wild West on the edge of the desert. Hidden in the mountain of death, if it weren’t for running out to snatch the oats fields of the refugees in the West Wasteland this time, maybe they haven’t discovered that they are hiding in that area."

He didn’t think it was so serious. I want to investigate it myself tomorrow.

Surdak is a little surprised. The Death Ridge on the West Desolate Land was once a piece of Ancient Battlefield. After so many years, some Nether Souls will pop up there from time to time. It is said that there were temple priests and The priest wanted to purify the area, but then he couldn't stop it.

In recent years, the last village living there has also moved out because of Nether Soul's so much noise.

He is the sheriff of Desolate Land, and this information was also found in the archives of the Helanza City Hall two months ago.

Surdak asked Andrew: "Death Ridge in the Wild West does not mean that weird events always happen there. Every Halloween there are countless wandering Nether Souls appearing in Death Mountain. Why are there still people? "

Andrew explained to Surdak: "It was not discovered by the villagers, but the information passed by a group of refugees who had no permanent homes. There is a piece of fertile land outside Death Mountain. These refugees want to take advantage of this. I planted some oats in the wasteland over there in summer, and when the oats were harvested in autumn, I had to transfer them to Helanza for the winter."

"A group of wanderers?" Surdak didn't expect that there would be a group of wanderers. Run to the wilderness to open up wasteland.

"en."An Delu replied.

Surdak pondered for a while, and instructed Andrew: "To send a letter to Karl tomorrow morning, let him mobilize some guard battalion Knight to come. Let them wait for my news at Wall Village temporarily."

"Yes!" Native warrior Andrew took the command.

Although Andrew was born as a native of the Nanai tribe, his tribe has lived in Vojmara for several generations, and has long become an imperial man with an unnoticeable influence, so he has a strong executive power. As long as it is Surdak's order, it will be completed without compromise.

"Captain, let me go! My detection ability is better than you." Samira walked out of the darkness, not knowing how long she had been eavesdropping in the dark.

Surdak thought for a while, shook the head and said: "I'll go, there is Aphrodite, it will be more convenient for us to connect."

In fact, he has one more sentence. I didn't say anything, just'this way is safer. '

Samira saw Surdak's decision, so he didn't insist on it anymore, just asked:

"When will we leave?"

Surdak sits on the big rock Get up, patted the dust on her body, and said:

"It shouldn't be too late, I will leave tonight."

……

Rita just gave the stable The trough was filled with fodder, and before the Gubolai horse had eaten a few bites, he saw Surdak hurrying back from outside.

Go to the living room and take a look at Old Sheila, then go to the stables to saddle the Gubolai horse and lead the horse to the door.

Natasha started Surdak wearing long riding boots and prepared the horse again. Knowing that he was going to go out, she ran out of the kitchen and asked:

"Why did you just come back? Are you leaving?"

Surdak explained: "The traces of the rebels have been found in the western barren land. I’m going to investigate it. I’m worried that they will not be able to find them in hiding when it’s too late. Hidden in Desolate Land is our biggest hidden danger. Now an arrow tower guard post has been built at Paglos Mountain Pass. It is much more difficult for them to flee to Oak Ridge than before. They must be solved."

When Natasha heard Surdak say this, her pretty face turned red, and she lowered her head and whispered in a low voice: "Then you be careful."

Although she was a little bit sad, Natasha and Rita Together, I helped Surdak put on that heavy set of "Earth Shield" armor, and the armor was added to the body. Suddenly, the whole person became burly and taller.

Riding through the village of Wall, the native dogs in the village are obediently and honestly shrunk in the kennel and dare not run out.

The market at the entrance of the village is empty, and some simple sheds have not been demolished, which makes the small market at the entrance of the village seem a little messy.

Taking advantage of the night, passing through the vegetable field cultivated on the side of the river beach, a dark vegetable field looks lush and green from a distance.

After Surdak left the village, he walked all night. Surdak only took out his sleeping bag just before dawn, spread it behind a huge rock, and slept for a while. Wait until dawn to mount the horse and continue to move forward.

The more you go west, the more desolate you feel. The original within the valley at the Pagros Pass is still a bit green, but when you go to the depths of Desolate Land, it is almost a wasteland full of rubble Some barren hills are simply a monolithic mountain of stones. When a warhorse steps on these rubbles, you must be extra careful, for fear that a certain piece of weathered stone will instantly shatter and easily break the horse's legs.

There are no high mountains along the way, at most there are only some huge and exposed rocks on the surface, one piece the size of a small hill.

Basically you can’t see the river, you can’t even find the dry riverbed, and occasionally you will see the limestone iguana crawling out of the rock crevices to bask in the sun. With the sound, these timid limestone iguanas will quickly get into the cracks in the rock.

Some rocky ground grows thirsty with almost no leaves. This weed is covered with thorns and few leaves. When it is close, it is very piercing. Its spikes seem to have a unique toxin. Once it is pierced, it will feel extremely painful and unbearable.

The noon sun almost burned the ground. Surdak saw a tired Gubolai horse and decided to find a place to take a rest. Maybe it would have to wait until the sun turns to the west. It's so vicious to move on.

Surdak took off the saddle and began to shave the horse sweat on the Gubolai horse, and then took out some grains and fodder from the magic backpack and let it stand in the shade of the big rock.

Simple ate some toasted oatmeal and jerky, Surdak leaned against the boulder and squinted his eyes to sleep. After getting up, he climbed onto a boulder to observe the terrain all around, and the Gubolai horse bowed his head. With the thirst in the crevices, its thick lips didn't seem to be afraid of spikes.

There is no village at all in this area, and it is deserted.

It is considered the most desolate area in Desolate Land. The veterans of the militia camp can know the situation on the western wasteland. Surdak believes that the villagers in that village have some connections with the refugees over there, but these things He didn't want to bother, maybe he married a woman among the refugees and became his wife.

If it weren't for these rebels who were so hungry, and must ran out to grab the oats from the refugees, no one would have thought that the rebels would hide in Death Hill.

There is a section of the road far away from the desert on the edge of Desolate Land. It has just passed summer, but there is no greenery here.

There are already hunters catching limestone iguanas in the wilderness. Surdak remembers that this time last year, Wall Village also began to organize manual hunting of limestone iguanas, but this year Wall Village was undergoing a major renovation, and people were everywhere. In places, the villagers of Wall did not have time to run into the wilderness to hunt the limestone iguana.

After walking for two days in a row, Surdak finally saw a large gray mountain range in front of him in the evening, and finally saw some greenery here.

There are some withered weeds all over.

In the twilight, a large oat field appeared at the foot of the mountain.

There are still a few dilapidated thatched houses over there. The materials here are scarce. Only two houses have roofs made of wheat straw. One house is filled with blue smoke and a group of refugees gather there. It looks like it's dinner time.

A corner of this wheat field was destroyed, and Surdak rode a horse moved towards the group of refugees.

Those refugees looked at Surdak numbly. Apart from the child, there were only a few women and old people. They wore ragged linen clothes and grass skirts. Their situation was even worse than that of the natives on the plane. Residents, these refugees only have fifteen or six people. They were surrounded by a clay pot, and they were silent when they saw Surdak walk in. Although there was fear in their eyes, they showed no signs of escaping.

Surdak jumped off his horse and strode over. He glanced at the oatmeal in the earthen jar. There was even some uncleaned bran floating on the rolled oatmeal.

"Are you all refugees?"

Surdak stood in front of the group and asked.

The so-called refugees are people who have no empire status. These people are not protected by the empire's laws.

They have nothing, only a little ridiculously more freedom than those slaves.

In the Grimm Empire, there is no real freedom. Those financially free nobles still have the constraints of family responsibilities, even members of the Imperial Family don’t just do what they want.

"Yes, sir."

Among these people, an old man who seems to be physically strong cowering said to Surdak.

"I heard that you found a rebel army here?" Surdak asked.

No one answered, everyone was silent.

The little children and women look shiver coldly. The little children are skinny, like a piece of Xiao Zhugan spliced ​​together, with a big head on top.

Women are also hungry because they can’t eat enough to make their faces yellow and thin, and they don’t look very good. The hard life makes them look much younger than they really are, and they don’t have a lithe and graceful body at all. , Under the scorching sun, the skin is a little dark.

"Where are the men?" Surdak asked the old man.

The old man lowered his head and replied in vague words: "They ran away a long time ago. We have no strength to run, nor can we escape, we can only guard this oatmeal..."

Surdak looked at the oat field that had only been ruined by a corner, and did not ask any more questions.

He did not continue to stay in the refugees' gathering place either.

Get on your horse and continue moving towards Death Ridge.

In Death Ridge at night, the mountain road is very difficult to walk.

But for Surdak, it’s not that difficult here, and it didn’t go too far to find a hidden sea of ​​rocks, where people and war horses are hidden.

In order to broaden his vision, Surdak gritted his teeth, took out the last three salamander heads from the magic pocket, arranged a sacrifice ceremony, and exchanged for himself to return to'insight'.

The night in front of me immediately felt like a black gauze was lifted off by an invisible big hand. Although it looked like a heavy haze in front of me, it was only a few kilometers away. The scenery all fell into the eye.

He waited quietly for a while in the crevices of the stone, and saw a refugee woman in tattered clothes sneaking along this mountain road towards Death Ridge, her footsteps vain, but The running direction is very clear.

Sure enough, as he thought, some of these refugees have been completely involved in the rebels, which also explains that after the rebel men ran away, the rebels did not wantonly destroy Yan. In the wheat field, they are actually waiting for the day when the oats finally mature.

Surdak soothes the horse, follow closely from behind to follow the woman.

The road at night is very difficult. The woman walked for a long time before finally crossing a valley. Surdak saw the guard standing on the stone cliff patrolling from a distance.

If it weren't for women to lead the way, it would definitely take some twists and turns to find this group of rebels hiding so deeply.

Surdak climbed to the top of the high mountain and found a group of war horses within the valley, where the rebel army’s temporary garrison looked like a cave.

The life of this group of rebels is really difficult, there is almost nothing here.

Surdak did not approach the group of rebels. They were very vigilant. Surdak worried that if he was discovered, he might be in danger.
