"I'll leave it at that, if you're going to Rift Valley, then it's absolutely not going to work!"

In the tavern of Furcres, the lame man paused the crutches in his hand, and the green bricks on the ground were smashed into a small pit by the crutches.

"Calm, how many times have you said it, isn't it just a trip to the Rift Valley, what's there to make a fuss about."

Uncle Locke crossed Erlang's legs and took a puff of his pipe, still with a heartless smile on his face.

"Fuss?" The cripple's voice raised an octave again: "How many times have I told you about the current situation of the Rift Collar, don't you know?" Not to mention that the people stationed in the town are all from the Carlin family, and if you go to the Rift Territory, don't even think about hoarding it out! ”

"What's wrong with Carlin, that little rabbit cub didn't know how many times I was beaten at the beginning, and his soldiers still dared to do something to me?"

Uncle Locke looked indifferent, knocked his pipe on the corner of the table, and was so angry that he couldn't stop slamming his crutches, and the trouser leg of his left leg that had been tied up fell off and fell in mid-air.

Not far away, Isu and Sean, who were sitting at another table, both had speechless expressions, more than half an hour had passed since Uncle Locke's caravan arrived at Phocles this afternoon, but these two people were still arguing on the same issue, but the members of the two caravans were calm, they should eat and drink, and they had just put the two tables together, and a group of people had made a drink.

Sean said that he was "too lazy to drink with those rough men", so he and Isu found a small table alone, and while eating, they introduced the identities of Uncle Locke and the old cripple to Isu.

The old cripple's real name is Bowen, and like Uncle Locke, he was originally a soldier of the Demon Army, and he also belonged to the same team, and the relationship between the two was naturally iron, but during the Blood Rebellion, the Demon Army was ambushed by a long-planned ambush.

In that battle, Bowen was almost killed, and at the moment of death, Locke blocked the fatal blow with a secret method, but the price was that Bowen lost a leg and could only rely on crutches to act, while Locke was because of the use of secret methods, his strength was greatly reduced, and he saw that his strength was hopeless, so he simply retired with his old friend.

After the story, Isu also guessed that it was nothing more than when the demon army expanded, Bowen and Locke were recalled to the recruits as instructors, and then these two idle guys joined the old Davin's Arrow Chamber of Commerce, and each took a caravan to become today's Uncle Locke and the old cripple.

In this case, this Sean should also be a member of the Demon Army, right?

Isu glanced at Sean without a trace, and did not say his own inference, looking at how much Uncle Locke and the old cripple took care of Sean, Sean must be the descendant of the demon army soldiers who died in the original battle, which is not a happy thing.

On the other side, Uncle Locke and the old cripple quarreled a few more words, and finally reached an agreement.

"That's it, don't fight with you old stubborn, I'll go and hand over to that group of young men, and tomorrow, I'll accompany you on a trip to the Rift Valley." The old lame man paused on his crutches again, and looked at Uncle Rock helplessly: "I really don't understand, why do you value that little guy so much." ”

"You'll find out when you're on the road."

Uncle Locke took a puff of his pipe and grinned, but there was an emotion called remembrance in his eyes that slowly overflowed.

"Heh, it looks like I'm getting old too." Uncle Locke laughed to himself, knocked down his pipe, and shouted again, "A bunny bunny! When you're full of food and drink, hurry to work! Tomorrow morning on the road! ”

"Got it, uncle!"

The members of the two caravans burst out laughing, and immediately dispersed.

As Isu knew, the Old Battlefield was located in the wasteland east of Phocres, and Uncle Locke's caravan set out from Phocres and traveled for another two days before reaching the outskirts of the Old Battlefield in the evening of the third day.

"I've long heard that the old battlefield is full of dead air, but I didn't expect that even the periphery has this scale of dead air."

Looking at the wooden wall built along the edge of the woods, Uncle Locke couldn't help frowning, but the old lame man looked like he was commonplace, and took two steps forward to talk to the sentry guarding the door.

Isu didn't feel the existence of dead qi, after all, his current mental power was no different from ordinary people, but he felt the impact of dead qi on his body, since the caravan approached the old battlefield, he always felt that there was a yin qi drilling into his body, and he had already sneezed a lot along the way.

"Let's go, we will spend the night in the camp tonight, stay in the old battlefield for a day tomorrow, and set off early the day after tomorrow."

After negotiating, the old lame man returned to the caravan and threw another necklace to Ysu: "Bring this talisman to allow you to damage your body to a certain extent with the power of death." ”

"Thank you."

Isu thanked him a little embarrassed, but the old cripple didn't pay attention to him, but explained some of the rules here to everyone who came to the old battlefield for the first time, and this undisguised dislike suddenly made Isu even more embarrassed.

But embarrassment is embarrassment, these rules that the old cripple said still have to be listened to, Isu is not a member of the Sharp Arrow Chamber of Commerce now, in essence, he is still a lone ranger, in case he offends any force, it is not something he can afford.

As a new land of the undead, the old battlefield naturally attracted a lot of forces, but after more than a year of competition, the basic power framework has been decided, and the balance between the various forces has barely been reached.

Among them, the most upstream are the three "large" forces, namely the Thieves Guild stationed in the east of the old battlefield, the Garfield family stationed in the southwest of the old battlefield, and the magic academy stationed in the northwest of the old battlefield, which controls two-thirds of the resources of the old battlefield with a three-legged position.

Among them, the Thieves' Guild is the main exporter of materials, after the Bloodclan disaster, the Thieves' Guild returned to Rift Town, preparing to re-entrench in the Rift Territory, and the old battlefield was regarded by the Thieves' Guild as an important financial route for the day, by collecting and reselling various undead materials to provide a stable flow of funds for the Guild.

The Garfield family is a necromancer family in Cellodiel, this family has not produced a legendary powerhouse for a long time, and has been frequently suppressed by opponents in recent decades, so after learning of the existence of the old battlefield, he decisively withdrew from the competition in Cellodil Province, and brought his family to the old battlefield, ready to accumulate a wave of strength.

Due to the family's own demand for undead materials, the Garfield family does not sell undead materials to the outside world, but will buy a large number of undead materials from some scattered and small forces, which is the most popular in the old battlefield area.

The Wintercastle Mage Academy is purely here to play soy sauce, and among the three major forces, the area occupied is also the smallest, and the strongest in the camp is only a few high-level mentors, which is simply ashamed of the identity of "one of the three major forces", but Rao is so, and no one dares to invade the area occupied by the Magic Academy, after all, no one wants to just occupy this area, and a portal suddenly appears in front of him, and a group of legendary mages pop out of it to teach him to be a man.

So the academy has been in a state of salted fish, enclosing an area to play a stand-alone machine, but it has become a small transparent.

In addition to the three major forces, there are also a large number of "miscellaneous fish forces" and small groups that are also living in the old battlefield, but the strength of these "miscellaneous fish" forces in the old battlefield, the strongest comprehensive strength is only slightly higher than the caravan, and the old cripple has brought it over in a word, as for those small groups? Sorry, the old cripple isn't even in the mood to introduce.

According to the usual practice, after entering the outer area of the old battlefield, the caravan went straight to the camp of the Spell Academy, after all, the relationship between the Chamber of Commerce and the Academy is still good, and it is safer and more secure to be stationed in the camp of the Academy.

However, before the caravan could enter the academy's camp, several academy instructors came out first.
