Chapter 265: Sunset Mountains

After going to a small shop on the street and buying a detailed map of the northern border, Linsey continued on his way.

He was going to cross the Sunset Mountain on the border between the two countries and enter Abomato from there, and he had no intention of returning to the Northern Legion, although the journey from the Legion-controlled dense forest would save almost two-thirds of the distance.

He didn't want to hear anything more disrespectful about his uncle, Nicholas. Although he had a strong relationship with the soldiers of the Northern Legion, he could not guarantee that he would not lose control and attack his uncle after hearing the slanderous and sarcastic remarks.

He always believed that his uncle Nicholas was innocent and did not betray the empire at all, but was doing things for the empire in another way, with the same purpose as the soldiers who defended the country, all in order to enable the people of the empire to live a peaceful life of peace and security.

With the map in hand, he hired an old carriage, and Linsey sat in the carriage and drove slowly towards the border.

Everywhere they passed, in addition to travelers, the most were explorers and mercenaries.

Sunset Mountain is not only famous for its many magical beasts, but also has a special and important position due to its abundant ore to support the empire's economy.

These explorers and mercenaries are there to hunt for magical beasts, or to hunt for treasures in areas that are not yet controlled by the imperial government, to dig for diamonds and gold, etc.

Three days later, Lynsey was on the border.

What catches your eye is a majestic mountain, stretching for thousands of miles across the border between the two countries, and everywhere you look, there are verdant undulating lines, against the background of the blue sky and white clouds, it looks extraordinary.

It is the famous Sunset Mountain.

Seeing that a group of people around him had entered the mountain along the rough stone steps that had been carved out, Lin Xi stopped and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

He naturally remembered what his father, Byrd, had said.

It was still his father who hid it from himself, using the memory carving stone to record the words on the stone in advance, and then put it into the space ring, and it was not until a year after his father's death that he successfully removed the memory carving stone and got the information left by his father.

One of them is about Sunset Mountain and his ancestors.

Five hundred years ago, a war broke out between the Nochi Empire and the Apomato Empire at Sunset Mountain.

At first, there was no major fuse in this war, and the two countries have always been antagonistic, just like the skirmishes that are often staged between the two countries on weekdays, and it cannot even be called a war, not even a small-scale war.

But then events turned out to be more than everyone expected, and the situation changed again and again, and the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and no one would have imagined that this conflict would lead to the largest war between the two countries in 500 years of history!

The two sides continued to send troops into the battlefield of Sunset Mountain, until in the end, even the god-like ninth-order peak powerhouses participated in the battle!

This is something that is unique in military history.

A martial artist at the peak of the ninth order, the appearance of one alone is enough to determine the outcome of a medium-sized war, so until the critical moment of the country's life and death, all empires will have a tacit understanding and will never send such a terrifying combat force into the battlefield!

But at that time, almost all of the ninth-order peak powerhouses on the bright side of the two countries were dispatched!

No one knows why these people are doing this.

After the end of the war, nearly ten ninth-order peak powerhouses died in battle!

This is an absolute catastrophe!

In this disaster, the only ninth-order peak martial artist of the Yuke family also died in battle.

After the incident, the empire spent a lot of effort to find out the cause, but never found anything, and the people of the Yuke family did not believe the vague explanation given by the empire in the end, and insisted on investigating, but they never got any useful clues.

However, the successive generations of the Yuke family have always believed that the reason why even the powerhouses at the peak of the ninth order were forced to participate in the war back then must be because they were caught in a shocking conspiracy.

However, it is a pity that as the Yuke family is declining day by day, its strength is not as good as before, and it has not been possible to find out who this conspiracy is related to.

After losing the backbone of the family, the Yuke family has plummeted since then, and has never been able to regain its former glory.

Five hundred years later, the family is left with only one father, and the father only gave birth to one of his sons, and because of the relationship between the Five Elements Elf Clan, the father died tragically, and the Yuke family almost existed in name only, until now, the murderer must have thought that the Yuke family has been erased from this world by them.

As for many people in the Empire, they don't know that there is a family named Yuke in Noki City, and this family still has the only building in Noki City.

Lin Xi is standing here at the moment, and his heart is really full of thoughts.

If this hadn't happened back then, where would the Yuke family go?

Will it become the Ryan family it is today? Will it have a pivotal position and absolute voice in the imperial army?

Will the population of the family multiply, and will the father no longer suffer sudden disasters?

But there are no ifs.

The world also does not believe in tears of regret.

What Lynsey can do is to look directly at reality and continue to move forward with firm conviction.

"Father, you wait, I will definitely find out the secret of Sunset Mountain and find out the truth. ”

Lin Xi said silently in his heart, and then strode towards Sunset Mountain.

The rudimentary stone steps are only paved for the first few sections of the mountain, and after less than a hundred meters of climbing the stone steps, the road ahead becomes very different.

The stone steps are gone, and the sides are lined with shrubs and trees, lush, and in the middle of it is a path that has been stepped out by passers-by for a long time, and the path winds upward, steep and dangerous.

At first, a few mercenaries and explorers could be seen in the vicinity of Linxi, but as the mountain became steeper and steeper, the area of the hillside became wider and wider, and everyone scattered and busily went to their own future.

Lynsey had never been to Sunset Mountain, but walked with a map in his hand and the trail under his feet, and he didn't know how long it would take to climb over the majestic mountain and enter the territory of Abomato.

Soon, Lin Xi could only hear his own monotonous footsteps, and the sounds of birds and other animals next to him, and there was silence all around, as if so many people had all disappeared at once.

After walking for a while, Lin Xi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The more I look at the map in my hand, the more profound it becomes.

It's not that the map is intricately labeled, it's that the location it refers to is so vague that it's hard to tell.

At that time, when I bought this map in a small shop specializing in selling equipment for long-distance travel, the owner of the shop also swore that this map was like a military map hanging in the combat command room of the Northern Army, and the location was marked completely according to the parameters of the military, and as long as you walked on the map, you would definitely not get lost in the Sunset Mountain, and you would be able to walk safely to the territory of Abomato.

From here, the reference to the place becomes blurred.

Fortunately, there is a trail underfoot.

As long as he walked and observed, with his experience of living in the dense forest, it was not difficult to get out of Sunset Mountain, at most, it was possible to take some more unjust roads.

What Lin Xi didn't know was that people who came to Sunset Mountain usually chose to go together. Some of these people are either familiar with Sunset Mountain, or they are simply people from the mines in Sunset Mountain. People like him who go forward alone, although there are eggs, are extremely rare.

This kind of person who chooses to walk alone will reach a fairly strong point of strength.

Because in addition to the endless stream of Warcraft, some mines will also fight the idea of travelers.

After traveling for half a day, Lin Xi came across a small mine specializing in silver mining, which belonged to the Nuoqi Empire. This mine is relatively formal, and the mine owner saw that Lin Xi was still going alone, and specially persuaded Lin Xi a few words.

Later, as I went deeper and deeper into Sunset Mountain, I saw more and more mines, some large, some small, some state-owned, and some privately mined, and I met several groups of hooligan-like people, all of whom belonged to the thugs raised by private mines.

Of course, in the end, they all hit themselves with the robbery, and one by one they were taught by Lin Xi that their noses were blue and their faces were swollen, and they fled crying for their fathers and mothers.

During this period, there were also a lot of various demonic beasts, but because they bypassed Sunset Mountain to the neighboring country of Abomato, they did not need to go deep into the depths of Sunset Mountain, so the strength of these demonic beasts that gushed out was mostly below the sixth order, Lin Xi killed several sixth-order strength of the demonic beasts, and after encountering individual seventh-order demonic beasts, he did not entangle with them, but walked away quickly, in this way, he traveled a lot of distance without danger, and after climbing a higher point, Linxi looked happily at the bottom of the mountain.

Now he is on the real border of the Apomato and Nochi empires. Behind him is the Noqi Empire, and in front of him, walking down the downhill road, is the territory of Apomato.

Right now, as long as he goes down the mountain and reaches the flat land, he will really pass through Sunset Mountain.

Joy was written on Lynsey's face.

He happily moved on.

Apomato, I'm finally here!

Uncle, wait for me, I must figure things out!

Lin Xi's excited mood shuttled through the middle of the mountains.
