More than a hundred years ago, in order to fight for this no-man's land about 200 kilometers wide, the two empires launched a major war, and more than 2 million soldiers died here, and then the blood moon ascended to the sky, causing the shadow power of the entire continent to be strengthened dozens of times, and countless soldiers killed in battle became undead, and the battle ended. This war was named the Blood Moon War, and at the same time, this no-man's land also became a terrifying undead zone, and the two empires that had broken their heads for this reason also gave up, and at the same time signed the armistice treaty, this area was classified as a permanent neutral zone, and named it Death Marks, in honor of the soldiers who died on the battlefield.

It didn't take long for many necromancers and dark professionals to take a fancy to this "treasure land" where the undead were rampant, so they settled here, and even established a small neutral country - the Shadow Alliance, and Death Valley is the capital of the Shadow Alliance, and it is also the only academy on the mainland that specializes in cultivating shadow and death professions.

But the Ice and Snow Empire and the Fran Empire feel a little unhappy when they see this newborn little country, we have been fighting so hard for so long, and as a result, you kid ate the meat, what is this like? So they all sent troops to attack the Shadow Alliance, and they were surprised to find that although this country is small, its combat effectiveness should not be underestimated, and its main members are thieves, shadow priests, necromancers, in addition to a large number of undead creatures and dark creatures. This structure makes the Shadow Alliance destined to be unable to play the Corps hedge like other countries, but the decapitation tactics and the Sea of the Undead tactics are played very slippery, the two great empires tossed for half a year, and the losses of more than 100,000 soldiers were lost, but they didn't defeat the Shadow Alliance, so they had to pinch their noses and admit the status of the Shadow Alliance.

The problem, though, is that the status of the Shadow Alliance is recognized. And the peace treaty signed, the French Empire and the Ice Empire tossed the Shadow Alliance in other ways - refusing to connect the Shadow Alliance to the teleportation network of the continent of Akara, and prohibiting any professional and professional unions from establishing a work site in the Shadow Alliance.

This trick tosses the Shadow Alliance enough, there is no teleportation network, and the Shadow Alliance built in the undead is like an island in the sea, and it is very difficult to travel. The absence of professional and professional unions also brought the development of the Shadow Alliance to an impasse.

However, there is a solution to everything, and after discussing with various professional unions and professional unions to no avail, the top management of the Shadow Alliance slapped the thigh and decided to establish their own professional unions and professional unions. Thus Death Canyon was born, becoming the first and only academy city on the continent to specialize in the Shadow Department and the Death Department. At the same time, it has also developed various specialties with the characteristics of the death system and the shadow system, and has also developed a directional teleportation system, which can teleport people from the city to the approximate location of the border of the death scar, and the return to the Shadow Alliance requires the use of positioning teleportation scrolls, which perfectly avoids the inconvenience of the country not being connected to the continental teleportation network.

However, this makes it easier for the inhabitants of the Shadow Allies to get in and out. It will be difficult for others to enter the Shadow Alliance, unless they have a flying mount, they will have to team up with other teams who want to enter the Shadow Alliance, after all, the density of undead in the Death Marks is too high.

……

Blackstone Fortress, the northernmost border city of the French Empire and the closest city to the Shadow Alliance.

"It's cold." Coming out of the teleportation array, the cold wind made Lin Wen shiver, the temperature on the side of the Blackstone Fortress was at least ten degrees lower than that of the fortress station. It's like dripping into ice. After two seconds, the magic array on the inner lining of the shadow shark skin on his body raised his temperature before Lin Wen felt more comfortable.

Stamped on the spot. Dispelling the last chill on his body, Lin Wen walked towards the north.

The vehicle used to go to the Shadow Alliance this time was a modified Banshee gyroplane, also because of the size problem, this special Banshee was disassembled into parts and stuffed in Lin Wen's backpack, if Lin Wen hadn't asked Lori for 5 16 checkered Demon Pattern Backpacks before leaving, this Banshee really couldn't take it.

Now it's time to get out of the city and find a flat place to put the banshee up. Then you'll be able to quickly travel to the Shadow Alliance.

However, when leaving the waypoint, Lin Wen noticed that half of the waypoint of the Blackstone Fortress had been closed for some reason, which meant that he could only teleport to the Blackstone Fortress from elsewhere, but could not teleport out of the Blackstone Fortress. At the same time, there were not many civilians on the road, and almost all of them were adventurers with swords and swords. And each of them had serious expressions, as if they were going to participate in some big war.

Did something happen? Lin Wen muttered in his heart, but in line with the principle that more things are better than less, Lin Wen didn't ask more, but accelerated his pace and walked towards the north gate of the Blackstone Fortress.

The gate was closed, and a line of guards guarded the heavy city gate, and in front of it stood a middle-aged man who looked like a team leader.

"Stop! Adventurer. The team leader stretched out his right hand to Lin Wen.

"What's going on here?" Lin Wen asked.

"Looks like it's a newcomer." The team leader pointed in the direction of the gate, "Little one, this is the Blackstone Fortress, and behind this gate is the famous Death Scar. The Blackstone Fortress is about to be besieged by tens of thousands of undead. I announce that you have been drafted, and now immediately go to the military headquarters of the fortress to report and participate in the defensive battle of the Blackstone fortress. ”

After saying this, the squad leader's face softened slightly: "Welcome to the Blackstone Fortress, I know it's quite unpleasant to encounter this when you first arrive, but now if you go out of the city, you will have to face tens of thousands of murderous undead alone, this is not a joke." What's more, when the defense of the city is completed, the road will naturally open, and there will be a lot of rewards, which you will like. ”

"How long will that take? I still have something to do. Lin Wen said.

"Look at the number of undead, the fastest is half a day, the longest is one to two days, and it won't be delayed for long."

Emergency conscription, there is indeed such a clause in the agreement signed when he first became a mercenary, when the fortress suffers from a series of non-war invasions such as undead and Warcraft, each mercenary has the obligation to assist in defending the city, and the mercenary level of the disobedient mercenary is reduced by 2 levels, and he is not allowed to take the task within 3 months.

This punishment can be said to be very, very heavy, you must know that it is difficult to improve the mercenary level, Lin Wen was busy for several months before he was promoted from the lowest F level to D level, if he directly dropped two levels, it would be fatal, then even the teleportation array could not be used.

In this regard, Lin Wen could only pinch his nose and admit it. (To be continued.) )
