Chapter 70: I'm sorry
Another huge demonic monster slowly fell backwards after letting out a roar that shook the valley, and when the huge body smashed to the ground, everyone standing around suddenly felt a tremor from the ground, and a group of birds in the mountains and forests outside the valley in the distance vibrated their wings and swirled in the air, and were alarmed by this sudden tremor.

"Boy, where the hell is the altar you are talking about?" Watching a petite girl leap off the huge corpse of a monster, the contrast between the sizes of the two seemed so abrupt. It's just that Odkin already showed a trace of exhaustion on his face, so he had to turn his head to look at Zachary, who had just helped the girl kill the monster.
This is already the fifth monster they have killed in this valley, these monsters that have been completely transformed by demonic energy, either with amazing agility or terrifying strength, if it weren't for the extraordinary strength of the young man next to him, who could react immediately to block the attack for them, otherwise Odkin thought that he and the two young girls and another young man standing next to the monster's corpse would have died in this valley.
Fortunately, although these monsters were extremely powerful by the demonic qi, so that the young man around him was also messed up several times, but it was also because the demonic qi in the valley was too strong, so that the monsters that could not withstand the high-intensity transformation of the demonic qi died in the valley, so that the valley was full of monster wreckage that had been invaded by demonic qi beyond recognition.
It's just that until now, Odkin has not seen the location of the altar that Zachary said.
The small valley is not large, surrounded by towering mountain peaks, and you can only see a small sky when you look up from the valley, but there are countless such small valleys in the Andes Mountains, which stretch for half of the eastern continent.
In such a small valley, although the presence of monsters made the group unable to walk fast, they were almost halfway through and almost reached the middle of the valley, but Odkin still did not see the slightest sign of the existence of the altar.
"It's almost there." As a result of the battle, a large area of the surrounding trees had been swept down by the battle, revealing a small patch of the sky above the jungle that was densely covered by dense foliage, and after looking at the surrounding peaks through this gap, Zachary confirmed that they were almost close to the center of the valley.
"Not far ahead is the middle of the valley, where the altar is."
Oldkin glanced at Zachary suspiciously, though the young man had shocked him in the short day and a half, whether it was the unknown altar in the valley, the purpose of coming here, or the young man's exaggerated strength compared to his age.
But Odkin didn't say much, but silently walked to a tall tree around him, and jumped lightly to the top of the canopy, but in a moment he jumped down from the tree and stared at Zachary with strange eyes.
"Boy, could you be mistaken, when I looked up there, I saw only a grove of trees, and there were no altar ruins at all."
"Elder, who told you that this altar was built in the valley?"
"Boy, are you kidding me? What are you doing here without being in the valley! Hearing Zachary say this, Odkin couldn't help but jump in anger.
"Elder, what are you anxious about, since there will be such a demonic qi gushing out in this valley, do you think the altar does not exist yet?" After a slight pause, Zachary turned his head to look directly at Odkin, "Elder, do you support me in opening the seal?" ”
Clutching his long beard, which he had carefully groomed every day, Audkin didn't know what to say, what Zachary had said had been around him all along. Based on his experience as a mercenary for so many years and the fact that he has traveled to many places, it is undeniable that what Zachary said is very reasonable.
It's not that Odkin hasn't seen orcs, orcs' strong physique and natural strength have made many orcs become mercenaries to travel to the continent, so there is no shortage of orcs to become his teammates in his decades of mercenary life, and he has also heard those orc teammates complain about the barrenness of the land in their kingdom and the cold climate, which makes their orcs live very hard.
Therefore, Odkin knew that what Zachary said was not wrong at all, after enduring hundreds of years of poverty, the orcs finally couldn't bear it, they couldn't sit back and watch their race become weaker and weaker, especially when watching the human race become more and more prosperous, the elves lived in peace and contentment, and the dwarves, halflings, and goblins all had a good time.
The glory of the past boiled in the hearts of these orcs, and they wanted a warm environment, a fertile land, so that they could save their clansmen who were struggling with hunger and cold, they could change the fate of the orcs who were constantly weakening, and they could fight for their former glory.
In this war, in the absence of external forces to threaten the safety of the orcs, the orcs will definitely not stop fighting.
But Odkin was also entangled in his heart, he didn't know the feasibility and safety of Zachary's plan, if when they unlocked part of the seal, there happened to be people with evil forces on the other side of the passage, then the entire Eastern Continent would once again be shrouded in the nightmare of eight hundred years ago.
"Boy, I don't know what to choose." Odkin sighed helplessly, even if he had been to many places and experienced many battles, he was just a mercenary, and what great insight could he have, he was just experienced.
Decide the fate of everyone in the Eastern Continent, this thought in his heart made Odkin shake his head and smile bitterly, looking at Zachary with an indifferent face with a little admiration, he didn't know how this young man took on such a heavy pressure, the fate of countless lives in the Eastern Continent would be determined by his actions.
"Boy, I hope your choice won't bring disaster to the mainland again."
In the end, the old mercenary sighed and looked up at the sky, without the idea of stopping Zachary, if Zachary made a mistake, it would be a big deal to throw his useless old bones on the battlefield with the group of madmen in the Western Continent.
Zachary didn't miss the look in Oldkin's eyes, knowing that the elder had made a decision to wipe his ass if he was out of the basket.
For the elder's decision, Zachary couldn't express his respect for him in words, and could only say in a firm tone: "Elder, please rest assured, how dare I come here without a little preparation." ”
For Zachary to make such a promise, Odkin only smiled and nodded.
Zachary knew that Oldkin didn't believe him too much, but thought that his actions might be able to stop the current scorching war, so that the blood of the good camp would no longer be shed because of infighting, so that he would no longer stop him.
So after greeting Joanna and them, Zachary led them on to the center of the valley, thankfully, no monsters jumped out to attack this time.
Zachary, who was finally ahead of the curve, quietly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw a clearing through the bushes that blocked his view, and then turned his gaze to the ruined stone monument in the center of the clearing, which was hidden by weeds.
Joanna, who followed him out of the woods, looked around curiously, looking for the altar that Zachary had spoken, and when they found nothing, they followed Zachary's gaze to the stone tablet in the grass that had been mottled by the wind and sun.
