Chapter 14: Death Canyon

The Valley of the Dead is thousands of miles away from Punk Town, even if it is a master of the Holy Domain, it is impossible to really walk in a straight line, although the master of the Holy Land is powerful and can float in the air for a short time, but he does not have the ability to fly for a long time.

The Death Mountain Range, which was originally inaccessible all year round, has become lively during this time, and it was originally just a handful of secrets that were circulated at the top of the continent, but at some point the news leaked out, making countless mercenaries flock here.

The Secret Realm of the Saint King, for these top forces, it is indeed nothing, and the ones sent are only some ordinary Sacred Domains, but for ordinary mercenaries, it is different.

There may be a lot of holy domains on the continent, but most of the holy domains rarely appear in front of people, and even among the royal families of mortal countries, there are very few masters of the holy domains, which is why the Holy See, the four great families have such an extraordinary status on the continent.

How many years can a country inherit, the longest, an empire called Caesar's Empire in history, almost occupied two-thirds of the Terran settlements, almost unifying the Terran race, even now, the Caesar Empire has disappeared in the long river of history, but many of the laws and structures of the Caesar Empire were adapted on the basis of the laws formulated by the Caesar Empire.

Such an empire that almost unified the human race failed to break through the millennium, only lasted for more than 900 years, and then collapsed and solved, and since then, no country has been able to exist for such a long time, rising and falling, no matter which world dynasty, it seems to have become an iron law.

The anti-Ming Church, such a force as the Four Great Families, the Church of Light, that is a behemoth that has existed since the time of the gods, from an ordinary sect among countless beliefs at that time, to today, it has almost become a behemoth of the nation's faith, and how many years it has been inherited, I am afraid that even the current pope can't say.

Among the four major families, except for the Golden Family, the other families all rose in the War of the Gods, even the Golden Family with the worst background is a big family that has been inherited for thousands of years, and whether it is the Holy See or the four major families, the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and there are naturally those who are arrogant and domineering like Jet and have no natural ability, but these forces are very strict about the education of future generations, like Jet, even if it is a descendant, can obtain some privileges, but it is definitely not the key cultivation object of the family, the descendants of the real family's key training, It is definitely an elite who is educated by elite education, so that generation after generation is constantly in the process of removing the chaff from the chaff.

Although the country is rich in the world on the surface, when it comes to heritage, it is absolutely impossible to compare with these forces, and the cutting-edge masters are not on the same level, even if the mass foundation is solid, people will send a holy domain at will, and your royal family will be clicked, and it is useless for you to have many people to support it.

And after these families have enough background, in order to maintain their transcendent status, they will naturally secretly suppress these empires at the master level, as for the church, the reason why people believe in gods is because they have a desire for gods in their hearts, but for those who are really capable, they believe in themselves more, and the power of faith ultimately comes from the poor.

And how can the faith of the poor be maintained?

War!

There is a saying in China, called rather for the peace dog, not for the troubled world, just ten words, the terrible and cruel of the troubled times, the people living in the troubled times, even the life can not be guaranteed, at this time, it is natural to pray for the protection of the gods, at the same time, it is also the time of the most belief in the gods.

But most of the time, people are a forgetful race, if the world is unified, the politics are clear, and the people have no worries about food and clothing, in this case, people who do not have too much ambition will be content with the status quo, at this time, there is no fear of the gods in the troubled times, praying for peace of mind, although still believing in the gods, but definitely not as pious as in the troubled times.

So war, is the soil for the survival of religion, in this point, the church and the four major families are surprisingly consistent in their practices, the country must have, otherwise there is no basic order, it will be very difficult to spread the faith, but it must not be made too strong, but anyone who can become the master of one side, especially the kind of founding master, usually has a strong desire to control, and does not want to have a second voice that can influence their own decisions under their rule, once they really grow up, It is not a blessing for religion or for a power of extraordinary status such as the Four Great Families.

This is also the reason why Viscount Tris, who was the heir of the Laisen Province at the beginning, ******** wanted to join the Church of Light, the country has no future, think about a province, even the fifth or sixth order can be counted among the masters, you know how big the gap between the two sides is, it can almost be regarded as two worlds.

As soon as the news of the secret realm was spread this time, it immediately excited a large number of mercenaries who were begging for a living in the area of Punk Town.

In history, there are too many precedents, a certain inconspicuous mercenary accidentally broke into the secret realm of a senior, obtained the inheritance, and suddenly became a holy swordsman or even a holy domain powerhouse, and even many founding emperors were because they obtained the inheritance of a certain holy domain powerhouse and created a certain empire for hundreds of years.

This kind of thing, not only in the mercenary world, but even sung by the bards, for these ordinary mercenaries at the bottom, the Sanctuary is too far away from them, as for the realm above the Sanctuary, not to mention the bards, it is not clear to many powerful mercenaries, but it is just the treasure left by the strong people in the Sanctuary, which is enough for these mercenaries to hang their heads on their waists and rush forward, who knows if they will be some lucky ones?

"Not stupid!" Zhuo Ao was standing on a cliff at the moment, looking at the groups of mercenaries rushing towards the Death Mountain Range below, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

It is impossible for the church and the four major families to take the initiative to announce these news, even if some mercenaries guess that the four great families and the church are here, something big must happen, but they will not rush to the mountain of death so frantically.

Some people want to fish in troubled waters, although even if they add these mercenaries, they may not be able to play any role in front of these behemoths, but they can muddy the water and hide themselves well.

The only one who has the motivation to do this in Punk Town is he, the Lord of Punktown, and the only snow elves who know and have enough influence in Punk Town.

In fact, even if they didn't, Zhuo Ao would have found an opportunity to get the news out, and now it saves themselves a lot of effort.

There are still seven days left before the barrier is completely broken, and he has to rush to the Valley of the Dead as soon as possible to see if there is a chance to enter the barrier before other forces, others can't do it, but it doesn't mean that he can't do it.

Death Mountain Range, the deeper it goes, the more dangerous it will be, not only the probability of encountering powerful demonic beasts will continue to rise, but also there are many dangerous areas such as poisonous gas, swamps, etc., which are annoying, if you are not careful, you may die inexplicably inside, and even if you are a saint-level person with the ability to fly, in the depths of the Death Mountain Range, you don't dare to fly casually, the domain awareness of Warcraft is very strong, and this kind of consciousness, in the more powerful Warcraft, the more obvious it is.

The Holy Master is strong, but air combat is not the strong point of human beings, even if it is a Holy Master, if you are flying over the Death Mountain and are suddenly attacked by a group of dragons, you will have to die, and don't wonder why people are beating you in groups, your behavior, in the eyes of others, is provoking the majesty of others, and you deserve to die.

Although Zhuo Ao is not a native of another world, he knows very well about these survival common sense, although he has not been able to get the information he wants in Punk Town, but in the process of collecting intelligence, his understanding of the Death Mountain Range is no less than that of a senior mercenary.

So instead of using the bamboo dragonfly to hurry, he took up the light power and rushed in the direction of the Death Valley according to the magic map given by Celine.

Thousands of miles away, but in the Death Mountain Range, the terrain is intricate, if you really want to walk, you may not be able to walk two thousand miles, even with the speed of Zhuo Ao's light power, it took four days to reach the outskirts of the Canyon of the Dead.

Feeling the cold air around him, the Valley of the Dead really lives up to this name, according to the terminology in Maoshan Technique, this kind of place is the place where the Nine Yin converge, which can trigger the evil breath of the earth, even if you don't use Taoism, throw the corpses of dead people or beasts here, and after a long time, you will definitely become zombies.

Death Canyon, above which is a cliff, is not exposed to sunlight at all because of the topography, and is shrouded in an eerie atmosphere all year round, just as you step closer, you can smell a foul rancid smell.

The ground is full of cracks as if it lacks moisture, and when you step on it, you feel fluffy, as if the ground is empty.
