Known as Wuthering City, it's probably a favorite place for adventurers everywhere for the simple reason that it's safe and exciting.

When the bitter Gobi yellow wind passes through these craggy rocks that have been etched over the years, it will emit a strange sound like the devil's wail.

But other than that, there are no other dangers in this place, no quicksand, no monsters, no beasts, the only thing to worry about is the possibility of small scorpions.

Except for the sound of the wind that is like a half-hidden and half-exposed singer constantly tugging at the heartstrings of the guests, this place is like home in the desert.

It is not for no reason that Mu En chose the first station here, because within a radius of dozens of miles with Wuthering City as the center and spreading outward, the address and landform can be regarded as a collection of the entire desert terrain. And because there are often tourists, the degree of development and commercialization are not low, so it can be said that safety is guaranteed.

São Paulo also said that when they completely wiped out the desert, this small area would be preserved as a scenic spot or geological sample.

Therefore, I think that the sorcerers should not be able to set up camp here, but the Celestial Cultists in the city are extremely disgusted with these sorcerers, because in the doctrine, the two sides are mortal enemies who do not share the sky, and there is no possibility of the slightest buffer.

And if they want to solve them by force, then they will use practical actions to prove to the other party that they are poor, but their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated. After all, at best, they are ascetics, but at worst, they are a bit masochistic, and the physical suffering will only make them more excited.

Muen tied the camel, which he had named Ansher, to the backlight. I climbed the boulder that had been ravaged by countless years. There are holes between the boulders, showing the shape of a narrow middle on both sides, and there are countless passages connected by them, which can be large and small to howling the wind.

The young man sat on the stone platform, looking at the vast desert and suddenly a heroic feeling poured out, the magician in the desert did not have to worry about dying due to lack of water, because the concentration of free magic in the air has nothing to do with whether the place is suitable for living creatures, and it may be less magical in the air than a densely populated place like the imperial capital.

One thing is certain, however, that there will be a "spring" in every place with a high concentration of mana, and it is unknown how the spring was born, but it is known that some springs will disappear on their own shortly after they appear, while a few will remain and can be taken away. It's just that this thing sounds great, but in fact, it doesn't have much other than to increase the concentration of free magic around it - of course, it can also be used as an energy source for the magic circle, but it is also very restrictive, because the output power of the spring is limited, so the dependence on this kind of thing in the empire is also very low, and there is only a spring in the imperial family in the imperial capital, which is still inherited from the Eternal Empire.

The magic of this place is abundant, somewhat unusual, and if someone is not deliberately drawing a large amount of it, then it is likely that a small spring is buried under the yellow sand.

The natives were in awe of Wuthering City, believing that the remains of the evil king who had brought death were buried underground, and that his soul hovered over the desert, and that if anyone disturbed his rest, he would return to earth with the army that had followed him since his lifetime to the other world.

It just so happened that Gao Ta had a record of this wild history, and he remembered that Mu En hadn't read much of that book - because he didn't need to take the test, he only remembered a few of the things that impressed him better.

This is undoubtedly one of them, it seems that the king was once buried under the desert, and he nailed his brother Osiris into a coffin and floated down the river, but Osiris found the body with the help of his wife.

The rest of the story is very complicated, but in the end, as the legend goes, Osiris gave birth to his son Horus on the day of his resurrection, and cursed his brother to become a monster with the head of a jackal. And Horus also became an orc because he drank the ancestral fountain of the orcs, and the falcon was tall and tall, and took over the power of the sun after the death of the original Amon.

Later, Seth was almost insane, sitting on the throne and hiding behind a heavy curtain, and his methods gradually became violent, and he was called a king who symbolized death.

At that time, the orcs who were driven to the desert returned to the interior, wanting to restore their former glory, under the light of Amun Ra's artifact "Aten", the human army led by Seth fought a decisive battle with the orcs, but when the war was close to the heat, the humans suddenly found that their emperor had become a monster, and they turned against each other.

Later, Seth's eyes finally lost his upgrade, and Osiris, who had awakened from hell, opened his hand representing spells and forcibly stripped Seth's power as a saint from his holy body, and his power replaced the power of one of the original Nine Pillars God, becoming one of the new Nine Pillar God powers. And his infant child, Anubis, was taken away by the orcs, because the little prince had already become a jackwolf.

It was the war of annihilation of the human empire, but after decades of conquest, it was the sub-elf race Atlantis that reigned over the world.

And the current orc sage Nubis is a descendant of this lineage, and their descendants have long known the truth of this matter, and expressed their willingness to protect the dead forever to protect the orc city and atone for the atrocities committed by their ancestors.

And Seth, the Lord of Death, is buried in this desert, accompanied by countless gold, silver and jewels.

Because of his elder brother, Osiris forgave the naughty child the moment he saw his brother really fall. With tears in his dead eyes, he placed his brother's favorite treasures in the deep grave, and lay back in the coffin that his brother had given him and killed him.

Mu En looked at the yellow sand under his feet, and sneered, the people buried under him can't be resurrected even if the king of heaven Lao Tzu comes, although the cemetery may not be under the Wuthering City, but the aborigines' worries are really unfounded, but they don't blame them, unless they are people who like to turn over the old paper piles so much, they may not know.

Twenty kilometers further east, there is an oasis, but it is not safe there, after all, this kind of place represents a possible settlement of large animals in the desert, and because of the underground river, there will be quicksand and swamps, and strangely, this rare state of life in the desert is not under the control of the apostle Paul, which is undoubtedly unusual, so Mu En plans to adapt to the surrounding terrain first and then go to where to go, anyway, the dry food is enough, and it is good to drink water and directly transform it with some magic power.

Ordinary magic water is actually not drinkable, because too high a purity may make people dehydrate faster, but Mu En has received strict training after all, although the control of magic power is not as earth-shattering as someone's, but it is also a first-class level in every sense. It can be said that in some aspects, he even surpasses his senior brother Anschel.

also sat for a while, Mu En saw that it was not too early, and even if he quickly adapted to the complex terrain, he should go down to roast Anschel, after all, the camels had not eaten in the past few days, the hump was deflated, and the fat reserves were estimated to be not enough.

Speaking of which, his mount seems to have always been the same name, and he has the potential to be a good man at first glance.

As the sun deflected and began to fall rapidly towards the horizon in front of him, Muen's figure flickered, and brilliant electric light swayed behind him, creating colorful sparks in the dry desert.

But as the saying goes: handsome is no more than three seconds.

Because Mu En wanted to exercise his quick reflexes in some situations in a fast way, but apparently he overestimated himself, so his head was stuck in a stone crevice at the moment, and his nose and cheeks were scratched, but fortunately he slowed down in time, otherwise he estimated that his hand would have some small problems.

The current situation is a little embarrassing, because Mu En's hand can't pass, if you want to urge the magic to break the card owner's own wind erosion rock, it is estimated that you will not be able to see people, but now you can't retreat, and the posture is still upturned, which makes Mu En very embarrassed.

The most important thing is that Mu En has never practiced all the magic, gold, earth, spells, and spirits, and knows a little about the others, so he can't use magic to assimilate the surrounding elements and get rid of himself.

But I have to say that Mu En's luck was very good, and he was only stuck for ten minutes, and a voice sounded behind him.

"Friend, are you alright?" said the speaker, with a strong local accent, but certainly not local. and more inclined to ...... Orient.

Mu En swore that he had already condemned himself to social death in his heart at that moment.

"That...... My head card is mastered. "Although Mu En is a northeasterner by blood, because he has lived in the central plains for a long time, he doesn't know the dialect there except for the official dialect.

After saying that, Mu En seemed to hear the sound of the people behind him not holding back laughter, which made him feel even more embarrassed.

"It's okay, it's okay, listening to your voice, it seems that you are not very old, how can you come to such a place alone?"

"It's just that he's not big and immature, but he's almost twenty years old. This time I came out mainly to experience the experience, but also to see the scenery by the way, I originally wanted to shuttle at the entrance of the cave, but I didn't expect the entrance of the cave here to suddenly narrow, and I was caught off guard by the owner. ”

"I see, twenty years old is still very young, which makes me envious. As for people, they have to walk around while they are young. The man stepped forward and stretched out a soft magic power that made Hou Muen feel as if the rocks around him had turned into butter, allowing him to get out easily.

"Thank you. Mu En covered his face with his hand when he broke away, looking like a smear, but in fact, he quietly retied the veil he had taken off before.

After doing this, he looked up at the man, who was middle-aged and dark-skinned, and looked like a person who had been on the road all year round. The man saw Mu En looking at him, and said with a simple smile: "You're welcome, you have to help each other when you go out, and no one can guarantee that you won't encounter any trouble outside, and you still have to do it." ”

"You're right, but I don't know how my uncle found me?"

"Hey, you're not a small movement, there are sparks and lightning all the way, and the crackling sound is even more special than the wind in Wuthering City. ”

"Makes you smile. ”

"Little things. Eh, since you're here alone, why don't we go together, and take care of each other, it's not for me to blow, there is a high-level magician among us travelers, and there is definitely hope for ascent, so don't panic when you encounter something by his side. ”

Mu En became vigilant when he heard this, thought carefully for a while, and politely refused: "Still no, in fact, my friend is also waiting for me, the direction is not quite the same as yours, I will leave after two days of shopping by myself." Or trouble to take care of. ”

"It's not me saying, since the legend of something like a sandworm has endured for a long time, it must not be groundless, you come and go alone, and it is easy to be targeted. ”

"Don't worry, the road I walk is a layman road, and it will not be dangerous if it was trampled by the previous tourists. Eh, speaking of which, uncle, why did you come out to travel at this juncture?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man was stunned for a moment and asked rhetorically, "What kind of bones?"

"Don't you know?"

"I don't know, I got here more than a month ago. Actually, I won't hide it from you, I'm a university professor who studies geology and folklore. It's not easy to get some money these years, I didn't spend the holidays with my family this year, but spent time in this place where birds don't, and the worst thing is that I haven't found anything yet. ”

Mu En smiled and said with relief: "Don't worry, I'm sure you can definitely gain something." Oh, by the way, do you know where the magic of freedom is most abundant in this area?"

The two were talking here, and there was a sound of footsteps outside, and Mu En immediately shrank back an inch after noticing it, but it was not cowardice, but a very particular fighting posture against the wall.

The man who claimed to be a professor smiled and patted him on the leg and said don't worry, it was his student.

Then he walked out of the cave and waved at the people below to signal that it was all right.

After that, the two teams parted ways, after all, Mu En was still on a secret mission, and he was hooking up with these scholars to slow down the progress of both sides.

After the incident just now, Mu En was also a little afraid, after all, if the hole just now was smaller, it would not be a problem for the head to be stuck, and I was afraid that my neck would be broken, so Mu En decided to stay by Ansher's side honestly to roast the fire.

That night, Barton came to Simon's cage, although now Simon can be said to be quite open, but he is still very speechless and is hung up every night, and the angry Simon is in his heart to scold the eighteenth generation of the man in front of him who looks very elegant.

"You know what, we're looking for someone. ”

Simon originally saw Barton coming over and wanted to pretend to be dead, so his eyes drooped weakly and looked like he was ignoring, but when he heard Barton say this, his eyes suddenly opened, and his eyebrows were furrowed.

"He really lived up to expectations, I thought that I might go over there to leave him some clues, but I didn't expect that he could deduce our approximate location with such broken clues, and he deserved to be the fourth in the academy. ”

The man who was hung on the cross didn't say anything, just stared straight at Barton, as if threatening, and Barton certainly saw it.

"What's the matter with your disgruntled eyes? Do you want to threaten me too? But don't worry, I won't kill him, he's not my ultimate goal, and with such a gifted man, I want him to serve true justice. ”

Simon couldn't help but sneer when he heard this: "Slaughtering innocent people is what you call 'justice'?"

Unexpectedly, Barton sighed and said, "Actually, I don't think it's good either, but the power of the Infection Origin is really difficult to restrain your bloodthirsty desires in the early stage. But at my level, isn't it normal?"

"I remember you killed a lot of people and ate a woman's head. ”

"Killing is not an end, it's a means. As for the woman...... It was an accident, he was so much like my daughter. ”

"So you killed your daughter, is this also justice?!"

Barton sighed, took two steps back, patted his belly and said, "The person you love the most should be together forever, and how to be together for a longer time should be in the belly of the person who can live the longest." ”

"You won't live long, stop dreaming. ”

"By you?" Barton left the prison with a nonchalant smile.

Simon looked around, there were fewer and fewer people in the cage, and it was clear that these sorcerers had not embarrassed them at all, but they had fallen like this, which made it difficult for Simon to understand.

Do those noble morals refer to the shitty rulers who use them to brainwash the people at the bottom?

It really makes Simon feel sick, and it should make anyone sick.

For they had little excuse, they had not been beaten, they had not been converted, but they had spent a few days in this gloomy dungeon, and they began to sing praises to the sorcerers, about how rotten the place where they once lived.

But it's because of people like you that this place is so rotten.

"Your Excellency...... Are you here to save me?" Simon always looked so energetic, but his hands and body had been scarred by the hemp rope, and he had no way to recover, in fact, he had already felt that his spirit had been tensed to the limit, and it would not be long before these sorcerers did not need to do more, and the most gentle nightingale of the empire would never be able to make a sound.

But even so......

"Don't come...... No one is worthy of ...... here."

Then he seemed to feel the world spinning and fainted.
