With Vivian's super-outstanding sword "Breaking the Evil Slash", everyone was directly silenced on the spot.

For civilians who are not capable of fighting, being able to stab a professional in leather armor to death with a single sword is already extremely powerful.

But for other Arthur or Player Adventurers, they knew that it would not be difficult to kill a first-level adventurer with a single sword.

The difficult thing is to be able to use such an amazing sword.

None of the people present were confident that they would be able to block that sword at that time.

This directly made Zhao Xu's next journey a lot cleaner, with fewer flies to disturb.

Later, when entering the barren ruins, the surrounding fog slowly emerged, and they were like deep gauze, blocking the light of this heaven and earth.

Even if you look high in the sky, it is still difficult to see Arthur's huge and incomparably blazing sun.

At the same time, the floor of the barren ruins is not the gravel and gravel road of the previous scene, or the flat stone floor, although it also has a hard flat layer for the carriage to move forward, but the top seems to be a layer of fine sand barren ash.

When a large number of people walked on these barren dust, the dust raised deeply suppressed everyone's sight.

At this moment, even if Zhao Xu didn't use mist spells, the visual range in front of him still didn't exceed more than ten meters.

And when night came, the surroundings became even more invisible, accompanied by terrifying howls from time to time.

Even if these civilians want to hurry, they will honestly make a simple camp and rest overnight at this moment.

Although succubias like Vivian usually don't have the habit of camping, this time when she traveled with Zhao Xu, she still deliberately carried the materials for camping, and set up a tent in three or two clicks.

At this time, everyone lit a bonfire and silently roasted the fire in this winter.

At this moment, in the night, Zhao Xu could only barely make out the glow of more than ten other bonfires, and the farther ones were difficult to see because of the dense fog of this ruin.

At this moment, Zhao Xu and Vivian were sitting side by side at the entrance of the tent, leaning on the curtain above their heads to block the scattered snowflakes in winter.

At this time, he also looked at the book in his hand, and Vivian, who was sitting next to him, relied on the clean water created by Zhao Xu with the Zero Ring Divine Technique "Water Creation Technique" for simple grooming.

As for the other people along the way, they were not so lucky, and after entering the barren ruins, they were unable to replenish the water source, so the water they brought in was extremely precious drinking water.

Zhao Xu's water creation technique, each caster's level is 4 liters of water, he is equivalent to being able to create about seventy percent of the remaining amount of bottled water at a time, and there must be no problem with drinking water.

This is also the reason why Vivien can safely bring out a basin to wash her hair, and most of the others at the moment are dusty.

A few children played with the ashes, and were severely taught by their parents after making their faces disgraced.

At this time, several players who happened to set up the tent opposite Zhao Xu also began to tell ghost stories, and they reorganized some common ghost stories on the earth with Arthur's background, and combined with this cold and bone-chilling snow scene, it also made everyone feel cold.

Zhao Xu had heard most of them before, but Vivian listened with great interest at this time, and even the comb was half-hung on her hair, and she didn't pull it down anymore, and she listened directly.

The few people who got together, looking at the beautiful Vivian, also listened carefully to their descriptions, and they were even more interested.

At this time, the steward of their caravan, who was also the steward of the Elasi family, Mr. Gao De, who was not young, coughed deliberately before he slowly spoke: "Do you know how this barren land was formed? ”

Such a question concerning his own practical interests immediately aroused everyone's interest, and several guards who were eating dry food and bread stared at him closely.

In Arthur, who doesn't have much entertainment after dinner, a group of people sit together and brag to each other, which is actually the most common pastime.

Even putting a circle of coarse ale wine in front of them, and then a mood master who compares martial arts, it can be said that there is not much difference between them and the earth.

Zhao Xu did test his "knowledge and skills" at first, and even in his previous life, he had heard people mention the legend of this ruin.

"I'll tell you." At this time, the housekeeper Gao De quietly opened the aluminum can wine bottle he carried with him and took a sip of wine, "This is the site after the Great War. ”

"Cut." Suddenly, a group of listeners around them made disdainful sounds.

Including Zhao Xu, his curiosity fell directly to the bottom.

In his previous life, he knew the news, and he even had contact with him on the spot.

"Hmph." At this time, the housekeeper Gao De, hearing everyone's resentment, immediately emphasized: "What I want to say will naturally not be so simple. ”

"The reason why this land is in ruins is actually related to the gods." Butler Gao De whispered.

Immediately, everyone present and heard it all showed a thoughtful look.

"At the beginning, it was said that he was an immortal powerhouse who blocked the blow of the ancient gods. It's just that the power of that blow is too huge, and even though it was removed, the energy still penetrated into the ground under his feet. ”

"In the end, the land lost its original brilliance, and everything died, as if it had directly drained its vitality completely."

Only then did the housekeeper tell the legend he had heard one by one.

After his support, everyone's hearts couldn't help but be fascinated.

The overflow of energy alone made the land that spanned a long distance under his feet turn into nothingness.

How terrifying was that blow back then.

At this time, Vivian also looked curious, and she whispered to Zhao Xu: "It's like the overflow of negative energy has erased life." But now we don't feel it now. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Xu also nodded.

It's not uncommon for a while and a half to wipe out all vitality, but it's a bit strange that this land has been wiped out of its vitality for more than a few years.

In general, it must be a negative energy core that has the ability to continuously overflow nearby.

However, Zhao Xu and a group of them, not half of them have been exposed to the shadow of negative energy.

"Hey, you can't explain why there's such a fog that can't be seen directly."

Suddenly, someone didn't scare him all at once, although he didn't raise the question that Zhao Xu thought, but he also touched another direction.

What is the fog that has persisted for years?

Butler Gao De smiled generously at the moment, "I don't know about this, anyway, since I can remember, Xiluo and the Northern Alliance have organized no less than ten exploration troops, trying to find out the source of this barren ruinland." ”

The barren ruins and this mysterious fog inherently provided the Northern Alliance with a perfect barrier in the eastern direction, but it also invisibly limited its expansion direction.

"Butler, when you say this, I also remember, the legend is that the fog in this barren ruin land is actually conscious."

At this time, a young wanderer deliberately raised his voice.

He directly drew the attention of the whole audience, and his heart was even more satisfied, "Secretly told you that although the barren ruins land is mixed between two major forces, a mysterious sacrifice ceremony is quietly held every year. ”

The sacrificial rite needs to be carried out quietly, naturally because the Orthodox Church forbids living sacrifices.

"Hey, when you say that, I get hairy. We set out this time, but we didn't make any offerings to this barren ruin in advance. ”

Saying that, everyone present smiled embarrassedly, the soldiers fled for their lives, where can they take care of so much.

It's just that people who don't usually make a living by crossing this road are desperately remembering whether this really happened.

Thinking about it, everyone's eyes fell on the look of the housekeeper Gao De, and the medicinal material industry run by the Elasi family had to communicate with the Northern Alliance to some extent.

So they must have walked this path before.

At this time, the housekeeper's face was also pale, "Before we entered this place, according to custom, we buried a freshly killed live bird in a special location. ”

As if sensing that everyone was a little creepy, he immediately explained: "But this is just our long-standing custom, just to ask for peace of mind, and the tradition of doing this is to be very low-key and quiet, so it is likely that you have traveled with the caravan and have not been in contact." ”

Everyone also understands a trace of the housekeeper.

This road is deserted, they rashly made sacrifices, let other people who did not do what to think, if there is no preparation in advance, everyone carries dry food, what are there live poultry there?

However, at this time, Zhao Xu's face was slightly stiff.

"President?"

Vivien was keenly aware of this, and she couldn't help but lean sideways next to Zhao Xu, and at the same time, her hand directly touched the hilt of the Holy Avenger behind her.

"What's wrong?"

Zhao Xu listened to Vivian's concerned inquiry, but his face was a little grim, "Sometimes, it's okay not to give it down." ”

"If you don't give enough, that's the big problem."

"Under the nest, there will be no eggs."

Saying that, Zhao Xu looked at the tents that were built like a hill under the darkness.

"Hey, go back to sleep when you're sleepy." At this time, a woman diagonally opposite the bonfire patted her partner on the shoulder, and from the beginning, the other party drooped his head as if he was asleep.

Who knows, she patted so lightly.

The poet did not wake up violently, but just like that, he fell down and fell into the bonfire.

The fireworks spread to the poet's body in an instant.

But he didn't wake up anymore.
