Chapter 203: The Goliath Gap

The people of Gaoshan Fort stayed in the tribe for a few days, and they had the right to cultivate.

However, Richard was not completely idle, and took the opportunity to figure out one thing - after four or five days of continuous observation, he found that he had indeed not seen a snake elf mummy clocking in on time at the end of the Gejin passage. In other words, the tripartite space rift theory that Elder Myra talked about should be inseparable from ten.

This result completely shattered any previous illusions, and also made the lord very disappointed.

However, disappointment is not always a good thing, and since it is impossible to return to his hometown in a short time, he has to start thinking seriously about how to live here.

It's not that Richard boasted, if the goal was just to survive, there was no difficulty with the level of force of the Alpine Fort. But if you still want to think better, you need to put a little more thought.

When the waning moon was about to turn into a full moon, the hundreds of strong men in Gaoshan Fort gathered again, everyone with helmets and knives unsheathed, ready to cut people or be cut at any time. There are also more than 600 Tiger Spirit Tribal warriors led by Senid, standing with them.

After drinking a bowl of fruit wine made from rose nuts, a large army of nearly 1,000 people lined up in two long columns and marched towards a border node in the Great Twilight Forest.

Of course, there is a reason for such a stirring up of teachers.

Elder Myra once said that the forest was full of undead and monsters. At first, Richard thought that maybe the Great Twilight Forest had some special geographical advantage, and he didn't have to worry about external dangers, so that the tiger spirits could live in a corner here.

Later, as we communicated, it became clear that this was not the case - based on thousands of years of experience, the Great Twilight Forest was not very attractive to monsters, and the occasional intrusion was not a problem. But on the night of the full moon, the full moon phase will bring the monster's ferocity to its peak, and it will become far more dangerous and irritable than usual.

They will roam in groups during the night, and will even attack the Great Twilight Forest, unleashing their brutality.

Although this kind of thing does not happen every month, as long as it happens once, it is tantamount to a danger for the living beings who live here. Therefore, for thousands of years, the tiger spirits have long been accustomed to sending tribal warriors to defend on the periphery on the full moon day of each month.

The reason why Alpine Fort set off with him this time was the result of Richard's own initiative.

First of all, whether the defense is successful or not obviously has a lot to do with every living creature in the Great Twilight Forest. Now that you have to live here, your lord doesn't have to worry about entrusting your safety to others. Secondly, he must also see with his own eyes what is going on outside the forest, which is the basis for his next decision.

"The border is so long, can you have a few people to guard it?" Richard began to talk with Senid again.

Compared with the forest path I walked before, the road to the forest border is much better, at least I don't have to worry about the Earth Walking Dragon getting stuck. It seems that the monsters outside the forest are a big problem for the tiger spirit, so for the needs of the war, they have to invest a lot of manpower to repair and maintain the road.

"Because there is a tall natural rock wall on the periphery of the forest, and there are six openings in it. "Senid was wearing a pair of straw sandals today, and he didn't paint on his body. If you ignore the wild and explosive figure, it looks a lot like a typical peasant dress.

His level of martial arts is undoubted, and he is extremely good as a warrior. But when it comes to the heart, it is not necessarily better than that of ordinary farmers. As soon as I talked to a certain foreigner who was full of physical and mental eyes, the little bit of information in my stomach was like opening the floodgates and releasing water.

"The monsters act almost completely instinctively, as long as you hold these six gaps, you don't have to worry about being broken in by the monsters. ”

"Then why don't you just fill in the gap?" the lord looked at Senid as if he were looking at a fool.

"Earlier there were at least forty or fifty gaps in the stone wall, most of which had been filled, and the remaining six had been deliberately preserved. Senid paused, then continued, "Monsters actually have the ability to climb over stone walls, and if you leave a few gaps, they won't have to fight over them. But if we don't leave a single gap, and let the monsters scatter and climb over the stone wall, we won't be able to defend the whole line at all, and it will be more troublesome. ”

"Oh. Richard suddenly realized.

It seems that although the tiger spirits may not know the word "Wai Sanque Yi", the concept has already been used well.

"The gap we are going to is called 'Goliath', and it is usually in charge of us and another tribe. But this month we are on duty, and we can't see them after we go, which is a bit of a pity. Senid smacked his lips.

"What a pity?"

"Forehead......," Senid said with a little embarrassment on his face, "The valley grapes they grow taste very good, and it's rare to have a chance to taste them." ”

"Hahaha. The lord laughed maniacally and patted the Tiger Ranger on the shoulder. Startled a group of birds to leave the nest with their wings, just like a group of planes swooping into London, sprinkling puddles of white bird feces everywhere, and slapping on the ground with a "pop" and splashing thick pulp.

"Shoot! shoot me down!" a cry of rage drifted into the distance.

............

Three days were spent in a hurry, and the wild fun was not boring.

It was only as we approached the border that the exuberance of the deep forest seemed to come to an end, the dense trees began to thin, and the grassy earth began to bare again.

As far as the eye could see, the grass was withered and yellow, and everywhere were tall dead trees that had completely turned into dead wood, with messy and sharp branches, like the fingers of a witch stretched out in the dark night. All this is not pleasant, but it also allows the vision that was originally constrained by the forest to fly again.

"Huh. Richard looked up in shock to see a dark red stone wall at least twenty blades high rising from the ground in the distance, spreading to the sides until the end of his vision. Considering the vast area of the forest at your feet, if the stone wall can really wrap the entire forest, the amount of earthwork can only be described as unimaginable.

"That's the Goliath gap. Senid pointed to a crack in the stone wall.

The lord bent down to pick up a piece of rubble, and placed it in the palm of his hand for a moment to make out it, and the dense bubbles on it made him frown. This kind of honeycomb stone is not common, and the tall stone walls surround it, which has already made an idea come to his mind.

"The Great Twilight Forest can't be on a huge crater, is it?" asked Richard with a look of disbelief on his face, casually throwing the volcanic stone back on the ground.

"An extinct volcano, to be exact. Senid shrugged, "Otherwise, there wouldn't be a stone wall like this to protect us." ”

"Preferably an extinct volcano...... Vera looked down at her feet, as if trying to see through the layers of earth and the scorching magma surging below.
