A crisis ended in such a dramatic process.

"Haha, the show is over, it's time for me to leave." Draven put away his throwing axe.

"Boy, if you want to learn my stunts, remember to come to the great Glory Executioner Delevingne." The eccentric guy left a dashing back.

"Why haven't you left yet?" Koterina said angrily.

"We don't need you to care." Rui Wen said coldly.

"Okay, finally this sister saved us, we still have to thank us." Edward grabbed Riven, but Riven didn't refute.

"Even if you kid has a conscience, get out of here quickly, you won't be so lucky next time." Caterina jumped onto the eaves and disappeared from view.

"Hiccup!" The giant man burped, then patted his stomach and said, "You haven't drunk yet, as long as you have wine, how about I escort you for a ride?" ”

Of course, Edward wanted to agree, but it was ultimately up to Rui Wen to decide.

"Here you go." Rui Wen still said coldly.

"Okay." The giant man took the barrel and drank it dry in two sips.

Later, Edward and the others learned that the giant's real name was Gulagas, but he liked the nickname "barrel" more.

The barrel is very talkative, and if he drinks too much, he will tell a lot of things he has seen, so it can be seen that he is a very experienced person.

At the same time, he didn't say a word about Riven's family, but Edward found that the cask's cloudy eyes always became very gentle when he saw Riven.

If Riven speaks, the barrel will shut up immediately.

It's a little funny to see Edward, it's really iron-clad and tender.

Walking on the road, Edward and the others also discovered the difference between the rich and the poor in the Principality of Wolves.

Because there are many mountainous areas, there is not much farmland suitable for cultivation in the first place.

The peasants in the fields were thin and dressed in very shabby clothes.

Even if you encounter those bandits with weapons, they all seem to be middle-level professionals, but they are wearing tattered clothes, which shows how poor they are here.

As for the bandits here walking on the road in broad daylight, it is nothing, but the poor people have nothing to rob.

Although there were several children on Edward's side, the huge size of the barrel was too intimidating.

No one in a team of less than ten people dared to mess with this.

Even a team of twenty or thirty people was sent away by the barrel play.

Especially the barrel is especially hilarious to bounce those people out with his big belly. reminded Edward of the rubber man tricks in the anime he had seen before. (One Piece Luffy, my favorite manga.) ）

However, if you encounter some aristocratic castles at night, you will find that they are very gorgeous inside.

But as crude as it is, the nobility here is all powerful high-level professionals.

There were three principalities before and after. The Exclusive Beast Principality is obviously the richest, and the people are basically well-off, and there are very beautiful scenery and environments.

The people of the Bucks Principality are very comfortable, and although they live a simple life, they do not have any worries and hardships.

The Principality of Wolves is located in the worst and most inhospitable place.

But it's more than where everyone is going next. It seems that the Principality of Evil Wolf is not so difficult.

Barren Wilderness knows from the name how barren this place is.

Legend has it that this place experienced a great battle between the silver city-state and the necromancer, resulting in a perennial lack of vegetation.

At the same time, because of its proximity to the Shurima Desert, the climate here is very arid, and many places gradually desertify every year.

As an abandoned place, there are quite a few small countries or city-states here.

These small countries are constantly attacking, grabbing scarce resources.

It's also a cursed place because there's a cursed river.

Legend has it that the "River of the Dead" was cursed by the souls of the dead because there were too many corpses that died here, and the souls kept floating in the river, and those who came to the river would be killed by the souls and dragged into the water.

After walking for a long time, Edward and the others finally arrived here.

From afar, he asked, and there was a foul smell.

"I said don't go there. It smells poisonous. Reluctantly, the barrel was hired by several barrels of dwarven liquor to escort the group directly to the silver city-state.

It is very resistant to reaching the Silver City-State Barrel from the Barren Wilderness, and it is relatively safer to go to the Silver City-State from the nemesis of the Wolf Principality.

But Edward had heard of the strangeness of the place, and he had to come here to see the river.

"Let's try it first, and then we'll go to the Principality of Bull." Obviously, Edward wanted to go around all the principalities, but unfortunately the Falcon Duchy was overseas, and the Duchy of Kimbe was also to the south.

Looking at the somewhat black river, Edward was indeed amazed, but as a necromancer, Edward did not find any undead energy. Originally, Edward thought it was an earthly river Styx.

Judging from the bones deposited on the shore, we know that many people have indeed died here. But the main reason is not the power of the undead, but the spread of falsehood.

The black river also has a lot of precipitation on the bank, but what is revealed is a colorful and strange color.

Smelling the faint smell of rust in the air again, Edward suddenly sounded some news from his previous life.

"The river is supposed to be caused by heavy metals. It seems that there must be a very large mineral deposit in a place upstream of the river. On second thought, Edward guessed pretty much.

However, people of this era should be very frightened when they see this river, because the metal toxicity in the air will definitely make you sick if you smell it, and the water that drinks this river will definitely hang up.

"In fact, if the source of pollution is removed, the river should be able to recover after a period of precipitation, after all, this river is a living water." Edward muttered to himself.

Leaving this shocking-looking river, everyone had a little palpitation. After all, this kind of curse is still terrifying.

"They went to the Devil's River, they are the cursed, kill them!" Walking through a crossing, suddenly someone shouted on the uphill slope, it looked like a group of villagers, but now these people picked up stones and threw them at themselves and others.

Naturally, these stones did not do much harm to everyone, and Edward blocked them all with an air shield.

"Magician! It's a magician! The group of villagers saw that Edward had actually cast a spell, and they ran away one by one.

"What! Let's just teach these guys a lesson. Ash said unhappily.

"No, stay here, I'll track them down." Edward said cautiously.

Edward's sudden solemn expression made everyone become serious.

Riven nodded slightly, and Edward left alone.

"Ahh Edward wouldn't really teach those ordinary people a lesson? I'm just talking about playing. Ash said with some regret.

"No, I'm afraid Edward is trying to verify something, didn't you find anything strange about those villagers?" Rui Wen asked rhetorically.

"You say it's their skin." Ash suddenly realized, "Then I'll go and see it too." ”

"No, haven't you forgotten the curse here?" Riven frightened.

"Isn't Edward afraid?" Ash retorted.

"Maybe he's really not afraid." Ruiwen is always more sensitive than the confused Ash, and Edward's eccentricity is definitely not to be talked about, so Ruiwen always feels that Edward has too many secrets.

Following the villagers, Edward discovered that their villages were not far from the River of the Dead.

When he entered the village, he saw that as Edward thought, the people in this village had all kinds of strange diseases, all kinds of deformed and spotted skin, which made what he saw shocking.

However, depending on the situation, these people are not too pessimistic, but are still trying to live.

Why do they want to live here? There's a cursed river not far from here?

(To be continued.) )

PS: Regarding human nature and people's hearts, this question is also left to everyone, can you guess it?
