Chapter 269: Territory (End of Volume)

"Is this the calamity brought about by ...... Old King?"

The earth, torn apart by the inability to bear the weight of the old king, has 'healed itself'.

But a "plague of doom" has spread through the Gaine Forest.

Using the Giant-Footprint as the origin of the plague, the entire forest is eroded and polluted.

The apocalyptic plague has formed an "overlapping space" in the footprint-covered area, and the plague inside has even developed self-awareness, forming a plague agent.

It is necessary to go deep into the interior and completely kill the pestilgen in order to eradicate the plague in this area.

There are thirty-nine 'great footprints' in the entire Garne Forest.

The Holy City has sent the Plague Knights, who are the best at dealing with such incidents.

It is required that the plague be cleared within ten days, and at the same time, the "Holy Knights" will be assisted by the side, and after the plague is eliminated, the contamination of the sacred essence in the relevant area will be completely dispersed.

Han Dong, who was riding in the [Crow Emissary's Car], naturally also saw the 'fully armed' Plague Knights.

The knights wore bizarre "gas suits", gas masks tailored to their personal preferences, and dark tunics inlaid with different epaulettes.

Even the horses under their crotches wore a kind of gas mask on their faces.

The surface of the horse's body has also been artificially modified, and a large number of hoses are attached to the outside, which seems to play a role in assisting the transport of substances in the body...... Allows horses to gallop through the Plaguelands without being affected.

There is a real 'sense of apocalypse' for such a force to move forward in the forest.

"Sir, don't you need to assist the Knights in dealing with the plague?"

"Plague of this magnitude can barely be ranked tenth since the establishment of the Holy City...... The old king did not take the initiative to send the plague, but he did not want to stay when he chased you.

Led by the Plague Chief, all the plagues in the Gain Forest can be cleaned up in a week. ”

"Hmmm......"

When Han Dong heard this, he was shocked.

It seems that in the early days of the establishment of the Holy City, mankind suffered unimaginable terrorist invasions and apocalyptic disasters.

The carriage galloped.

Han Dong carefully observed the situation inside the forest.

The fissures in the earth have healed, leaving only a scar-like stripe on the surface of the earth.

In addition, the plague-contaminated trees are also using their own "miniature suckers" to slowly remove the plague that has invaded the trunk as much as possible and survive.

"Strange...... How do you feel that the land and forests themselves have a strong ability to heal themselves? Resist the exotic plague to the greatest extent, although it can only delay death. ”

Mr. Black and White explained simply: "Yes, the world ruled by the Old King has changed...... Even forests, mountains, and rivers that are not managed by "title deeds" have a certain ability to regenerate.

As long as the damage is within their reach, the land will repair itself.

Otherwise, if the world was still two hundred years ago, it would not be able to withstand the existence of all kinds of 'high positions'...... As living things evolve, the world must evolve with them. ”

"I see."

Listening to Mr. Black and White's explanation, Han Dong became more interested in this world.

"So, isn't the area with "title deed" management more self-healing?"

When the carriage drove out of the forest.

What appeared in Han Dong's eyes was an intact "Stuart Manor".

Wheat fields, small towns, cemeteries, and castles are restored to their original state as if nothing had happened here.

Of course.

Self-recovery is limited to the most basic earth, wood, stone, and water.

The swollen Dr. Doctor's factory won't be repaired.

When Han Dong stepped down from this land, he had a feeling that the whole area was one with himself, and he could monitor the details of every inch of land at any time.

Almost at the same time.

Dr. Swelling rode one of his favorite tin ghoul mounts, and came to the surface through the nearest underground passage and rushed to Han Dong.

"Emissary!!"

As Dr. Swelling knelt down, he glanced apprehensively at the crow carriage on the side.

"Doctor, don't worry...... This is my mentor in the Holy City, Mr. Black and White. Without my husband's help, my identity would have been revealed. ”

"Greetings, Mentor of the Emissary!!"

Mr. Black and White as he stepped out of the carriage.

A thick juice similar to sweat continued to spill out of the pore of the doctor's head.

Because of his extraordinary brain ability, the doctor is stronger than the Inhumans of the same level in terms of perception, and can intuitively feel the power of Mr. Black and White.

A wave of the opponent's hand is enough to make someone's head hit the ground.

"Envoy, what do you think about the 'defense issue' that I talked to you about last time?

Except for me, all the family officials have died, and the [Mother] has been taken away by the former king.

We need to fill the manor with enough garrisons and residents as soon as possible...... I'm afraid I won't be able to protect this area alone. ”

When the doctor had just finished asking this sentence.

Quack!

A large number of crows are heard from the forest area.

Led by four "Raven Elders", the same size as the last convoy escorted...... The entire tribe and tens of thousands of crow people have come from the forest area to the large manor.

"Doctor, is this new resident enough?"

As Dr. Swelling stared at the four Raven Elders who had reached the "Alien" level, his head was sweating profusely.

"Enough, enough! Enough is enough...... In other words, if you are not here, who will take care of the manor for you? ”

The doctor himself is still a certain distance away from reaching the "alien demon".

As a result, the Doctor worries about whether his future position on the manor will become a kind of researcher who can only work as a coolie.

"The same...... Doctor, you're the Director of the Underground Zone.

As for the Ravens who are fully occupied in the manor, the four elders are jointly responsible for the management and security of the ground area.

The status of an elder is the same as that of you, a doctor. ”

Quack Quack~~

Han Dong's willingness to give such a shelter to the Raven tribe is the greatest gift...... As for such an arrangement, the elders have no opinion.

Moreover, there is a specialization in the art industry.

In some ways, Dr. Swelling is far more powerful than the Raven Elder.

The doctor will also launch the "Enhanced Raven Man Project" in the future, and when the underground experimental area is completed, he will conduct experiments and transformations to address the shortcomings of the Raven Man's physical level.

A mutually beneficial and win-win relationship is formed between the two.

"Thank you...... Thank you, Messenger! I'm going to ...... We will meet all the requests of adults. ”

can be so reused, and can sit on the same platform as the crow people who have reached the [Alien] level.

For a moment, the doctor was so excited that a large number of filthy tears overflowed from his eyes.

"You first try to rebuild the laboratory with the existing supplies with the Raven Man...... In the future, I will slowly establish a channel for material supply. ”

"Good!"

Saying this, Han Dong turned to the four Raven Elders.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this will be your new home from now on."

As soon as this statement came out.

Tens of thousands of crowmen knelt down together and wrapped their bodies with black wings to express their sincerest gratitude.

At the same time, Han Dong took out five almost identical "land deeds" from his backpack.

Each was given to the four elders, as well as Dr. Swelling.

"You don't need to know which 'title deed' is genuine, just keep it in what you think is the most secret place to make sure that no one can steal it.

I may not have many opportunities to go out of the city in the future, so the big manor will be left to you to take care of. ”

"Don't worry, we will guard this land for your lords." The elders exuded an aura of fear, showing their loyalty and determination.

Of course.

From time to time, the Raven Elders would glance at Mr. Black and White with their feathered eyes.

I could feel a homologous aura from this gentleman, but the rank was far above them...... Just staring at the black masks can make their feathers flutter with nervousness.

Mr. Black and White stared at the majestic scene of tens of thousands of crows kneeling, and couldn't help but smile under the mask, and transmitted a message to another person in his heart:

"Shiro, that's my choice."
