After entering the valley, the further you go inside, the more desolate the environment becomes. There was hardly any vegetation to be seen on the surface, the uninhabited mountain road passed through the sharp rocks with sharp teeth, only the dead grass and thorn bushes grew in the cracks in the rock wall, there seemed to be some withered trees in the distant darkness, and the cold wind from the mountains creaked through the branches like black smoke.

Brando knew that this was because the nutrients of the land were absorbed by the magic tree, and he held a torch to reflect the surrounding stone walls, and there were occasionally a few dry bones of Bai Sensen in the shadows, which looked like goat-like animals, because they had strayed into the forbidden area, and became food for the golden magic tree.

Roman followed behind with a torch, her bag in one hand and looking around nervously and curiously, it was the first time she had been so far from home, as if the dream of a merchant was about to come true from this moment on—the hardships and excitement of the trade route, and the wealth and treasure of the unknown end had always been the reason why merchants and adventurers prospered on this continent.

Besides, with Brando, she felt a sense of security.

Two flames crossed the canyon one after the other, and Brando landed his hand on the hilt of his sword, and as soon as he crossed this area in the game, he entered the territory of a monster, the Blighted Beast.

The Golden Demon Tree is a terrifying monster, or should it be said that it is a class of gold trees. The main body may be an elven sacred tree such as a tree or oak tree, but it can be implanted with the blood of the god by the 'tree herder' and then awaken into the golden tree - the tree herder is one of several major cults in the game, and in this war-torn world, where the fire of Chinese and Ming cannot be reached, darkness breeds, not only the undead sequence exists, but also the soil for the survival of the cult. In the game, the shepherd-like villains act secretively, leaving their presence everywhere, like a thread that lets people know that they have a certain purpose, but no one knows what.

Brando is no exception.

The Golden Demon Tree has two abilities, the first of which is to activate plants. It can turn the shrubs in the land under its control into monsters in human form, called the Blighted Beast. The Blighted Beasts are like the tentacles and spies of the Golden Demon Tree, and they are all over this canyon.

A single blighted beast is level 7 in the game, and its combat power is about the same as that of the guards Brando has seen before, but it has low intelligence. The stronger Blighted Beast is more than thirteen years old, and its awakened first level strength is also a tricky opponent for Brando.

The second ability is the Demonic Fruit. The fruits of the Golden Tree fall to the ground and crack open to give birth to furry savage-like creatures that grow up to two meters tall in a day, and the children of the Golden Tree and the Elite Guards, who are ranked between twenty and twenty-two, are the only thing that Brando relies on when he encounters them is the Ring of the Queen of the Wind.

After decades of accumulation, there are already a considerable number of these demons and blighted beasts in the canyon, and if it weren't for Brando's heart, it would have been impossible for him and Roman to pass through this canyon safely. Of course, the Golden Demon Tree itself is also very strong, after all, it is a monster that has entered the second level of power, but the young man has no intention of provoking it at all - he knows where it is, so naturally he will not approach.

Along the way, only the rustling footsteps of the two people remained, and they looked a little scary in the silence. But Brando felt a hint of familiarity, he used to be the same person who came in with large rolls of rope, torches, oil lamps, hooks, and dry food, and then followed the route he had traveled a thousand times to find trouble with the Golden Demon Tree.

The Golden Demon Tree produced 20 to 30 Oz of power-level equipment, which was almost the best drop at that time, and at that time, players with a little skill would choose to do so - especially the rumored Heart of the Golden Tree, which regenerates 1 life per minute, was an artifact in the early days of the game.

But I'm afraid that the only difference now is that there is a future merchant lady behind her, and Brando suddenly has a feeling of adventuring in the mountains and forests with the girl she likes, and the adventure of the two people is quite romantic, isn't it?

"Brando?" Roman suddenly reminded in a whisper.

Brando turned his head and noticed that the other man's eyes were on his hand, and he was slightly startled to find that the thorn of clear light in his hand was oozing white light from the scabbard.

There are undead nearby! He was shocked, and immediately reacted that even if Madara did not control this area, he might send a small team to monitor it to ensure that no fish would slip through the net. It's just a small team, thinking of this, Brando relaxed a little, a few low-level undead are not enough for him to see, but be careful not to alarm the blighted beasts in the canyon.

He drew his sword, and the light on the sword was noticeably brighter as the Spike of Light pointed in one direction, and Brando immediately knew that the group of undead was in that direction. He reached back and motioned for Roman to move away, then extinguished the torch and moved it step by step.

*****

There is indeed a small group of undead in the canyon, but these skeletons are also in a bit of trouble at the moment. It was the corpse witch Kabuka who led them, and not only did he let the human scout go in Buchi, but he also led a colleague to Rothko to send him here - both to punish him for his disappointing appearance and to remind him not to be too clever in his rush to show his superiors or masters.

Of course, Kabuka understands, but what is more important is how to block the attack of the three-headed monster in front of him.

At first, it and its skeletal soldiers killed a thorny, humanoid bush that stood up in the canyon. At this moment, their kind seemed to be coming to the door, there were three of them, and these monsters were shrouded in a pile of withered branches, and under their heads, two glowing fires stared at the undead creatures, and around them there were several broken skeletons.

The battle seemed to be on the verge of breaking out.

What are these root turfs? The green flames in Kabuka's eyes lit up and dimmed.

Seeing that the other party was about to attack again, he had no choice but to harden his skeletal soldier and replace it with a strong bow, draw a dark blue soul fire and ignite the arrow cluster, and then shoot out a rain of arrows - unexpectedly, the two withered beasts were stained with flames and quickly hissed and screamed, turning into two burning flames on the sand.

The Corpse Witch immediately let out a quackling laugh, this thing was stronger than the skeleton soldiers under his command, but as long as it was a plant, it would be afraid of fire. By the way, why didn't it think of this before, it was a mistake. Kabuka raised his bone staff, and with a thud half of the last blighted beast's body exploded, sending sawdust flying in the sky.

Seeing the corpse witch dancing there, and Brando, who climbed up to a protruding white rock, couldn't help but be amused, this is really a thing that doesn't know whether to live or die, dare to use magic here. Magic is one of the favorite nutrients of the Golden Demon Tree, and the Golden Demon Tree's thirst for it is like a drug, as long as there is a trace of magic fluctuations in this area, the latter will immediately find it, and the corpse witch does not know it, it is really a death.

However, he is also in some trouble, after all, he and Roman are also here, and he must find a way to get to a higher place quickly, otherwise he may be buried with these empty souls.

He turned back and pulled Roman up below, and Miss Merchant, seeing the small group of undead below, couldn't help but blink, her bright eyes not scared, but curious.

"I recognize the corpse witch." She whispered.

"Shh

The undead were so recognizable, and Brando was only telling a joke when Roman was telling him. Between skeleton soldiers and skeleton soldiers, between corpse witches and corpse witches, there is almost no difference in appearance except for some differences in soul fluctuations, not only low-level undead, but even they distinguish high-level undead by the ornaments on their bodies or some obvious features.

"I really recognize it, Brando, I saw it from afar last time I was in your house." Miss Merchant's sworn words.

"En, be quiet, it's alarming them, we can't eat and go around."

Brando's eyes narrowed, he could already see some shadows scurrying in the shadows, and the way of action should be that of a withered beast, and he couldn't count them after he had counted thirty, too many, and too dark. However, the corpse witch had not yet ordered the skeleton soldier to extinguish the soul fire on the arrow cluster, and the plant was phototaxis, and he had already made up his mind that the other party was a skeleton of bones scattered on the ground.

"There seems to be a lot of stuff around us, Brando." Roman said.

"Yes, come with me. Bow down, don't alarm them—"

The two men continued to climb higher, with Brando leading the way in front and Roman kneeling on the rocks as he moved forward little by little. Now he began to feel the benefits of carrying Miss Merchant, and she was not at all panicked in such an environment, which was difficult for ordinary people to do.

He remembers that in the game, teaming up with some female teammates to go into some scary places, he would often encounter yelling. And that's not even the most embarrassing, it's embarrassing that some men do the same.

As he thought, he quietly looked down—

Centered around the Corpse Witch and its few skeleton soldiers, the Blightbeast has converged into several torrents. Kabuka finally felt that something was wrong, and it subconsciously recited the spell of the Dark Veil, but only halfway through it saw two crimson monsters burst out of the cracks in the rocks and tear its skeleton soldiers to pieces.

Martha, Lord Roscoe! What the hell is this, there's no need to be monitored here!

Kabuka did not have any attachment to his subordinates, and there was no mercy in the army of Madara. Of course, the idea of preserving itself is still allowed, so it jumped up to the rock behind it, the dexterity and strength of the corpse witch are not low, but ordinary people are easily confused by their mage's appearance.

However, Brando did not appreciate this scene at all, because he saw that the corpse witch was actually coming up from his side.

If I go, you can't choose a good direction?

He didn't even dare to pull out the thorn of light at this moment, otherwise he would have been the target of public criticism immediately with a glow stick in his hand in the darkness.

But he immediately saw a dark red withered beast suddenly jump up and grab the calf bone of the corpse witch. Drag it downward, the canyon is already surrounded by withered beasts at this moment, and the skeleton soldiers are afraid that they will be torn to pieces in the morning, as long as Kabuka hesitates for a second, he will immediately follow in the footsteps.

"Kill it!" Brando couldn't help but shout heavily in his heart.

At the same time, he felt Roman clutching his shoulders tightly behind him, as if he was as nervous as he was, and everyone could see that if the corpse witch leaned in a little more, it was likely that the blighted beasts would find them.

However, the girl's exhalation was like Xinlan, which still made Brando a little distracted, and he glanced back, only to find that Miss Merchant was looking in the other direction in a daze.

Hey?

Brando subconsciously followed his gaze and suddenly gasped.
