Chapter 268: Cold Fortress
Wedge: A world that has been through a long period of time must be a pluralistic structure, not a one-size-fits-all architecture
In the Golden Scale City, Chisheng Hitomi was quietly cultivating in the cultivation room of the branch guild, and the noisy sounds outside did not affect him at all, everything had been planned, and he would leave for the Cold Rin Fortress tomorrow. The main reason for the www.biquge.info is that the flying spirit beast that Qing Qian borrowed from the auction will not arrive until tomorrow, so he has to delay the trip and send back the news from the fortress, this time the beast tide is not ordinary, although it is not a super beast tide, but the spirit venerable is very difficult, so he has made some personnel adjustments. There are dozens of fortresses on the periphery of the entire Zhitian Guild, and the most strategic is this cold fortress, which is like an open fan-shaped sharp corner, flanked by lofty mountains and mountains, and in front of it is a large fan-shaped plain. The farthest part of the plain is the Cold Abyss Mountains, and the smoothest road after the endless beast tide army has left the mountain range is this plain, known as the Cold Plains. Because spirit beasts are not people, they don't know what tricks, and they will go wherever the road is good, so the location of the cold fortress is both dangerous and dangerous, and it is a place where the beast tide must fight. Support teams from other cities have already come to support one after another, and this is the first day of the beast tide.
The day passed faster, and by the second day, there were more than 300 people in the support team, and these people were divided into several groups, led by Lou Xiao, Xuan Feng, Wang Mingjiang, Long Xiaoyao and Qing Qian. Everyone rode together on the fifteen Flash Eagle Beasts Hao Hao Tang Tang and headed towards the fortress, and Chisheng Hitomi did not ride his own Purple Feather Goshawk, because there were three people on it, and if they rode together, they would be exposed, so let the three of Bai Xian ride alone The Purple Feather Goshawk followed. When the team flew over the Clear Quiet Valley, Chisheng Hitomi couldn't help but sigh, now the entire abyss chasm was balanced, the entire Clear Valley fell countless meters, and the cliff on the other side also collapsed, forming a whirlpool-shaped huge pit. The flying spirit beast flew for five days, and after five days, a group of towering mountains and rivers appeared in everyone's field of vision. In the middle of the mountains there was a huge fortress with many houses and camps, and in the middle of the two mountains a thick wall of several kilometers high stuck the huge mountain like a floodgate. From the outside, there are 20 gates about 300 meters above the ground, and from the gates to the ground, there are wide stone slabs like suspension bridges. Huge iron chains are linked one by one, and the thickness of each ring is comparable to a big tree hugged by four people, and finally form a shocking iron chain that pulls the two sides of the boulder slab. Where the slate touched the wall, half of the huge pulleys were embedded in the wall, apparently opening and closing the twenty huge slate doors by agitating the pulleys.
About a hundred meters above is this huge window, which should be for the sake of watching the battle and convenient support, after all, it is very troublesome to open the stone gate every time, and it is harmless for the spirit to gather and jump down in these four hundred meters. Then there are more than a dozen watchtowers similar to bunkers on the top, which are used to observe whether there are flying spirit beasts. Standing on the entire plain, you can see the movement of the entire plain at a glance, beyond the watchtower, the entire kilometer-thick wall has a wall like the Great Wall, because there is no water in this world and the temperature is fixed, so even from such a high top of the wall will not be limited by the sea of clouds and fog. What makes people feel is that there are new places for such a huge wall, and many of the boulders on the wall are new stones, and the other stones are dark black soaked in blood stains, only these new stones are of different colors. It seems that the super beast tide caused the wall to collapse a few years ago, and in front of this huge wall is a huge square, in front of the square is a deep ditch, which has fiery red hot magma, which is said to have been drained from the far and deep underground by ten spirit emperors. Eventually, the magma flowed to other sources of magma, and the part between the two sources that passed through the gateway of the fortress was excavated and exposed, creating a natural barrier.
More than 30 bridges spanned the hot magma, and after crossing the bridge, they still passed through a clearing of the building, and there were dense and staggered lines on the clearing, which seemed to be in formation. Finally, on the kilometer-high wall, two majestic huge golden characters are still clearly visible across the distant mountains, and the name of this fortress is the word Hanrin. Countless spirit beasts rushed out from the endless plains and forests, and the roars of fighting were heard one after another, this battle between man and beast had begun and continued. Hitomi Chisheng and the other team flew to the place where the spirit beast landed, and looking at this fortress from behind, it was different. The stone gate is still there, but the huge chains are gone, and nothing else is special except for the towering walls. Come to think of it, there is nothing to defend against inside, and there is no need to make it look like the outside, just like the deadbolt is only inside the house, and the lock is outside. "But the Golden Scale Team of Golden Scale City", after landing, there were already people waiting there, because someone had been sent over to spread the news before, "Not bad! Take us to meet the lord", Chisheng Hitomi stepped forward, and Lou Xiao gave him a lot of science along the way, and the lord was the one responsible for everything that was to be plugged. To some extent, this fortress is the lord's territory, although it is within the jurisdiction of the guild, but because of the frequent months of garrison, the lord's family has lived in this walled castle for generations. The people of the guild did not object to this phenomenon at all, because only those who had been stationed for countless years could establish a clan, and such a clan would be more than one in the fortress, and there would be competition between them. And then there's the fact that no matter how powerful they are, the annual beast tide is a difficult time for them to face, and the peace and tranquility of the places under his jurisdiction with the guild in the rear are closely related, so it can be said that both sides need each other. Whenever the beast tide comes, the guild will send support teams, and the outer cities will also come to support, not only to defend the fortress, but also more importantly, that is, merit. The merits of the fortress, if the level of a spirit's spiritual cultivation represents his absolute status, then the merits of the fortress symbolize prestige. The reason why many spirit people in the Fighting Spirit Arena in Golden Scale City before saw the golden sword badge of Chisheng Pupil would take the initiative to withdraw from the challenge was because of the golden sword badge on his chest, and the original owner of this badge, Ling Jian, was a person who had achieved outstanding feats in the fortress, and almost everyone respected him. This feat has an extremely special prestige and status within the guild and within the fortress, so many people come here mostly for merit, and only the team sent by the guild really comes to support, of course, their purpose is also meritorious, and the two are not contradictory. A group of people walked through the market, the street was full of people buying and selling all kinds of potions and spiritual weapons, and most of them were orcs, these orcs were all spirits and monsters, and they were also considered a big family, but all the power and elegance were peerless. After a lot of years, the blood of the spirit monsters has thinned and declined, and finally become these orcs now, they can't move an inch in the places where humans live, and only these fortress places are their habitats, and from this point it can be known that places such as the Chaos Domain and the Wonderful Domain must have been unconnected for a long time.
After passing through the market, there are camps, each of which is divided into independent courtyards, and the stone plaque at the door clearly indicates the support team stationed in the camp. However, the camp is all set up on the left, and on the right is the garrison of different orcs, I think it should be the living race of the cold fortress, because there is a lot of competition and change in the fortress, and a year has passed, so Lou Xiao and the others don't know what race the lord is at this time. Walking into this walled castle, hundreds of people walked side by side in five teams and it seemed more than spacious, not so much a wall as a castle. Its interior can be said to extend in all directions, stairs and empty doors alternate one after another, and each staircase and door are the same, after a turn and eight turns, even the red pupils are circled, simply don't care about anything, and keep following the lead. Along the way, the white crystals dangled in front of me, and I don't know how long it took and how many stairs I climbed, and finally came to a solemn corridor. It is not so much a promenade as a promenade-type conference hall, and the entire decoration has changed since entering the door. The rough stone wall was plated with a layer of white jade, and the white crystal light was not as strong as before, and it became a lot softer. More than ten meters after entering the door, there are two rows of seats on the left and right, there is nothing special behind the seats on the left, and the ones on the right are different, and there is a huge badge hanging on the wall behind each seat on the right. And they are all beast-shaped badges, there are white eagles, there are silver wolves, in short, all kinds of badges all the way to the end.
The red blanket was spread all over the floor to the bottom of the first three-step staircase, which was made of white blankets, and above the staircase was a large chair, and on the wall behind the chair hung a huge bird badge, the kind of bird Hitomi had never seen. However, there was this badge hanging all over the wall, and it was clear that this badge was the coat of arms of the lord's family. The other chairs were empty, except for a man sitting on the first seat, his face was handsome in a robe, and there was a faint coldness and murderous intent between his eyebrows, and there was no trace of any of the birds on the badge behind him. This red pupil was not surprised, all the spirits and monsters who have achieved cultivation have two original lines, one human body and one original body, and there are not some beast-like body hair characteristics like described in ghost novels. "Lord! The Golden Scale City support team has arrived", the waiter bowed and said, in this world, Chisheng Hitomi has never seen anyone who kneels easily, even if it is a servant, he is bowing. The man opened his eyes, a pair of golden pupils emitted a suffocating cold light, and many people in the team did not fight a spirit, "The white pupils of the Golden Scale City support team of the Zhitian Guild have seen the lord", Chisheng Hitomi arched his hand and said. The lord's gaze swept over everyone, and finally his gaze fell on the badge on Chisheng Hitomi's chest, "Golden Sword Badge", the man sat up straight, "Thank you for coming from afar, I am the lord of the Cold Fortress, you can call me Tiankun."
