The Afsu Basin is the last barrier between the Winged Kingdom and the Northern Wasteland.

Cattle and sheep are everywhere, villages are dotted with villages, and large man-made canals keep the northern heat at bay.

Tobacco grass can be seen everywhere, swaying in the wind on the slopes, valleys, and plains. Even on the side of the road, you can vaguely see a few tobacco grasses, tender and green vitality, tenaciously competing with wild grasses for soil nutrients.

In the fields, the breeze is blowing, and the colorful scarecrows show their true faces!

Old farmers with scorched faces and emaciated bodies were tirelessly working in the fields. Even though their clothes were already soaked with sweat because of the scorching sun, and they were all sluggish and tired, the white teeth they showed because of their bright smiles were so clear.

Everyone carried a shotgun behind their backs, and some even had pouches strapped to their waists, and even ordinary labor, these dangerous creatures never left them.

Between the fields, beside the road, from time to time, a line of militia passed by. All of them were well-equipped, and the leather armor on their bodies reflected a dazzling glare in the sunlight.

The carriage drove by, and the group of militiamen saw that the sign of the Black Dragon Knights did not stop them, but they also cast their vigilant gazes.

The body is tense, and he is always ready to draw his gun and shoot.

The folk customs here are unusually strong.

Gu Cheng looked through the gap in the curtains, looking at the green crops around them and the soldiers guarding them at all times, his eyes gradually became a little solemn.

After nearly a month's long journey, Gu Cheng and the six members of the Black Dragon Knights got along relatively well. can't talk about friendship, but you can sometimes talk about a sentence or two.

As the distance between the borders got closer and closer, there was no one who did not open their eyes during the period and dared to hit the idea on Gu Cheng and the seven people.

The Black Dragon Knights are the strongest legion in the kingdom and the ace army of the Winged Kingdom.

No matter where you are, you will be given the most solemn reception by the local officers and lords.

In a sense, this army, which is of great significance to the kingdom, represents the face of the entire country.

Even if there are only six people, it is not one or two thieves, or some families in China dare to provoke at will.

Best of all, there's no precious oil and water to be harvested!

The son of a viscount who has lost his position has not entered the weight of the lords of all parties.

Even the Viscount of the Rhine himself, who occupies a position in the kingdom, is only in the lower middle class.

Gong, Hou, Uncle, Son, Male!

Obviously, the viscount can be in a corner, and being an earth overlord is already the best result.

During this journey, Gu Cheng also discovered a very interesting phenomenon.

As time passed, the distance between himself and others from the center of the kingdom also increased.

According to normal logic, poverty, hunger and cold, this is the daily situation of the people on the border.

But the truth is the opposite: the closer you get to the border basin, the richer and more ferocious the peasants become.

All of them wore leather armor of great value, and even reached the luxury of a revolver in their hands.

This once made Gu Cheng think that he was heading towards the capital of the kingdom.

Strict vigilance, five steps and one sentry, ten steps and one post.

In this last leg of the journey, it's really not an exaggeration at all.

Gu Cheng naturally knew that the root of all this should be related to ,,, tobacco grass planted in the field.

After all, there are still a few boxes of leftover Huazi in his arms that he doesn't enjoy, and Gu Cheng also has a certain understanding of this thing.

For example, precious, luxurious.

In the past few days, I have also shared the pleasant experience of Huazi with the knight chief several times!

From his receptive attitude, Gu Cheng had already realized a lot.

Later, after a casual conversation, it was learned that the owner of the weapon shop did not exaggerate the price of Huazi very much, and the price of a small Huazi was indeed as high as 100 Wallare.

Tut-tut, that's crazy.

"Lord Luke, sending it here is already our limit.

For the rest of the journey, I hope that Your Excellency will not do some stupid things.

We'll stay at the border for a few days, and once you've crossed the border half a step again, don't blame us for the ruthlessness of our spears.

Take care. ”

Gu Cheng got out of the carriage and opened his mouth to talk to the knight chief!

Although the other party has been silent, the helmet and armor are completely untouched!

But Gu Cheng felt that the two sides got along quite well, at least there were no accidents halfway, and he was very cooperative.

Thank you for taking care of each other for a month, and begging for a batch of horses by the way.

It's that simple, shouldn't it be too much, right?

But several black shadows crossed directly in front of his eyes, and bursts of smoke and dust flew directly confused his eyes.

Cover your mouth and nose, squint your eyelids, and wait until the dust dissipates, where are the traces of the six Black Dragon Knights in front of you?

"As for it? Anyway, we've been working together for a month! ”

Gu Cheng glanced at the carriage that had no horses, and then looked in the direction where the six people had disappeared.

There was a mixture of tastes in my heart, and I couldn't cry or laugh inexplicably.

Is he so annoying? Or has his prestige already intimidated the knights?

Looking at the rolling yellow sand and the raging heat wave of the desert, Gu Cheng couldn't help but pull his cowboy hat to block the oncoming heat and dust!

Stepping on the sand that was a little awkward, Gu Cheng felt the heat coming from the soles of his feet, and left the area directly and decisively.

Stepping into the boundary, the strange heat eased a little.

Hiss~!

The temperature at the edges has already exceeded 40 degrees, right?

If you keep moving forward, it's worth it.

Sure enough, without horses and means of transportation, there is no possibility of survival in this wasteland.

Sitting on a big rock, Gu Cheng felt that he should go back, find a way to get a horse first, or wait for the night to fall.

The plague god had already flown back and brought himself very unfortunate news.

The nearest wasteland town would have taken a day and a night to reach it with normal foot strength.

Under the scorching sun, Gu Cheng was not sure that he would be able to reach his destination with a bottle of sheepskin kettle in his arms.

During the last break in the section, Gu Cheng also made some brief preparations.

I bought a linen cloak to shield myself from the wind and sand, and by the way, to cover up the terrifying ammunition clip on my body.

His outfit is too eye-catching, and Gu Cheng has never been a too high-profile person.

Carefully calculated, the various objects on his body are really a bit heavy.

Demon God Wheel, Universal Glasses, Steam Gloves, Two Revolvers, One Spear, Three Ammo Clips, Water Bags!

By the way, there's also a clown ragdoll.

It's a hot day, and this furry thing is really a heat-producing artifact in my arms.

Just as Gu Cheng covered his head with a cloak, he was ready to take advantage of the shade of the big tree next to him to take a good rest, wait for the night to fall, and then see if the climate of the desert would change!

Bang!

A gunshot rang out in the sky without warning.

The bullet hit the surface of the boulder beneath him, blasting the stone out of a gap.

A Ghost tumbles down from a boulder and hides in a side corner.

Gu Cheng took out his spear and squeezed the bullets into it with a little skill.

Quietly probe, another splash of stone fragments!

The cowboy hat was also directly knocked away by the opponent's sharp marksmanship.

Fortunately, Gu Cheng finally saw the guy who did the black hand to himself.

“mmp！ It's really a bunch of brainless, conscientious guys. ”

Gu Cheng scolded a little angrily.

It was not the sand bandits that Gu Cheng imagined that he had done to him.

It's the six members of the Black Dragon Knights who went and returned.

Six spears, always in the dark.

It seems that he has been waiting for a long time, and this wave of operations really made Gu Cheng a little scolding.

There's no way, my current skills are really not the opponent of the other six.

With his back against the boulder tree, he has forced the other party into a corner.

The only way out is to flee into the depths of the desert.

It's a bunch of rigid and cold war machines.

Gu Cheng pressed his body firmly to the ground, and his head didn't dare to tilt up at all.

I was afraid that the other party's hand would tremble, and the stray bullet would unluckily solve itself.

"I surrender! I left the border immediately. ”

Gu Cheng fell to the ground and slowly retreated towards the desert.

Firmly fastened his cowboy hat with a hole in it on his head, endured the burning sensation brought by the sand, and honestly retreated beyond the border under the watchful eye of six guns.

Thankfully, these guys still have a little conscience. Perhaps thinking of the meager friendship along the way, the other party did not do the kind of immoral thing that resulted in one shot.

On the other side, looking at the down-and-out baron who was prostrate on the ground, little by little withdrawing from the border.

The only midshipman in the team asked, puzzled.

"Why don't we just shoot? Violation of the law is a capital offense. ”

The chief knight lowered the barrel of his rifle and put it back on his back.

Looking at the figure that had disappeared in the distance, the knight's faint words came out.

For the kingdom has commanded us to exile, not to be shot on the spot. Do you understand? Cadet Knight. ”

Feeling the burning gaze under the knight's gilded helmet, the apprentice knight quickly stood up straight, pounded his right hand on his left chest, and made a standard knightly salute, not daring to question it again.

"Understood."

patted the newcomer who had just entered the industry on the shoulder, and the team did not stop any longer, and went directly in the direction where they came.

After Gu Cheng's lesson this time, he can be regarded as having no intention of taking advantage of the cold.

Competing with a cold machine is purely self-inflicted!

The boiling air around him kept lapping on his face, and Gu Cheng only felt a burning and stinging pain.

The sun in the sky is like its nemesis, causing great hot damage to the hardened cells on the surface of its skin.

After a period of self-adjustment, the sand is secreted in large quantities and covered on the surface of the hardened cells.

This kind of stinging is like Jiao Xue encountering the decline of the hot sun to get some improvement.

Perhaps because of his race,,, Gu Cheng could feel every cell in his body protesting against this very hot weather.

As if he had encountered a natural enemy, he kept giving feedback on the war to Gu Cheng, the generalissimo of soldiers and horses.

If their intelligence is higher, their bodies may be in a mess at this moment.

Although he will not rebel, all kinds of voices that hinder him from moving forward will also fill his mind.
