Chapter Ninety-Seven: Hostility

Since the number of light elements used by Rowan was not large, it did not cause any waves in this dead world.

The gargoyle had no value to gather, and the team rested for a moment and continued to move forward.

In this place, whether it is fighting qi or magic, it is consumed very quickly, and the recovery is also very slow, so they use a little less, so they use other things to recover, such as the energy potion used by the warriors, this medicine is not expensive, it can restore a small amount of physical strength and fighting energy, before coming in, everyone has a distribution, after all, this ghost place is too unfriendly to ordinary warriors.

The empire's investment in this matter every year is very huge, and the consumption of several dangerous places on the periphery of the Thunder Mountain Range alone is more than half, and the consumption of personnel and medicine is almost spared, and a county sends a legion out, spending a lot of money and baggage. The Thunder Mountain Range spans the entire Sacred Forest Empire, bordering five counties, that is, five legions, a legion of 30,000 people, plus local garrisons, and major nobles, all of which have more than 400,000 people invested, for any empire, once a year, this is definitely a huge consumption.

Before he came, Rowan thought that the interior of the Sacred Forest Empire was quite calm, and the calm was simply terrifying, but after coming here, Rowan knew that the peace of the Sacred Forest Empire was also exchanged for human lives, and within a county, there were almost thousands of soldiers consumed every day, and the situation was still getting worse, and after this sweep, almost twenty or thirty thousand people stayed here forever, and he realized that the Sacred Forest Empire was not completely in peace.

The Holy Forest Empire is like this, the Renault Empire on the other side of the Thunder Mountain Range Rowan can't imagine it, you know, they are completely out of the mountains, and they face all kinds of terrible demons every day, what kind of life should it be, it makes people shudder to think about it, no wonder they are a junior magician with such excellent spell-casting skills, without enough spell-casting skills, I'm afraid they are all dead.

Thinking of this, Luo Wen's heart suddenly sank.

The team moved forward, and soon, in the afternoon, after killing three or four waves of monsters, Rowan's team advanced almost ten kilometers as agreed, and began to return the same way, and today's mission was over.

Be cautious when you go, and don't have so many scruples when you come back, and even then, you were attacked twice and killed five gargoyles.

Luo Wen walked all the way, but he didn't find any decent medicinal materials, which made him a little strange, you know, they went more than ten kilometers deep.

However, thinking that there are often adventurers who come in here to secretly collect medicinal materials, Rowan is also relieved, Death Canyon is hundreds of kilometers long, if someone really comes in to collect, it will definitely have priority over Gukou.

The team of five warriors and one mage quickly retreated to the valley mouth, and found that most of the people had returned here, but the number was much smaller, they were covered with blood, their expressions were depressed, and some of them were cold and did not say a word.

The teams were withdrawing one by one, and soon, most of the teams withdrew, but there were some teams that did not withdraw, and when the sky was hazy, Louis, as the main commander, gave the order with a gloomy face, and turned back to meet the enemy, and those people must not come back.

At the meeting after the war, Rowan did not participate, but returned directly to his camp and began to recover, although he did not consume much, but the consumption of mental power was not a lot at all, probing around, detecting the enemy's situation, the consumption was quite large, and he seized the time to recover, and then he counted his harvest today.

Today's biggest gain is to feel the characteristics of the death element, the death element in the King's Canyon is very strong, even if he is not in the King's Canyon now, Rowan can clearly feel the death element in the air. These insights were today's gains, and he remembered that among the necromancy, there were several very useful death magics, such as the most troublesome debilitating magic and slow magic, which were the signature magic of necromancy.

The characteristics of the death element itself are decay, decay, dead silence, etc., it has the opposite attribute of the qi of the living, and attaching to any living force will reduce their activity, or even completely neutralize the activity, so that a living person becomes a dead person, so the death element is the most formidable element, and ordinary magicians will not easily try it, unless they have this kind of physical characteristic that can cultivate the death element.

The greatest possibility for a living person to cultivate the death element is to train himself as neither human nor ghost, but there is also a kind of person who cultivates the death element without doing anything, but is like a fish in water, this kind of person is naturally suitable for cultivating the death element, but among the ten thousand magicians, this kind of person will not appear one.

Necromancer also has its strength, in addition to all kinds of weird magic, after cultivating the necromancer magic element, it is easy to communicate with the undead world adjacent to the real world, from which to summon powerful undead warriors, knight bone dragons, etc., a necromancer represents the undead legion, as long as his spiritual power is enough, it is easy to stand at the peak of this world, this is the most powerful key to the necromancer.

Rowan has the attribute of affinity with all elements, naturally he is not afraid of the invasion of the death element, but he has not used their magic at all, after coming into contact with the death element today, he has a lot of feelings in his heart, which makes him broaden his horizons and understand the truth, the whole person seems to have cleared some of the fog in front of him, and the whole person seems to have changed, becoming silent and silent. But these are all appearances, and his heart is still hot.

The Death Element was just an episode, and the next morning, the team continued to advance, and today their task was still to advance ten kilometers, on the basis of yesterday.

However, on the grounds that he was unwell, Rowan threw all the light elemental bottles on his body to Daley and did not go in again. It's not interesting for him to go in, and if he is weak in combat, he might as well stay outside.

Daley took these small bottles with both hands, and did not have the idea that this was a waste wood in his heart, but was full of gratitude, with these small bottles, they could quickly kill gargoyles above level four, and reduce the consumption to a minimum, but this thing cannot be used indiscriminately, the light element is in a death element, just like a torch in the dark, if it is not used well, I am afraid that it will be besieged.

After Rowan explained the precautions, he plunged into his tent and continued to study the enchantment.

He brought with him a lot of materials, various solutions and metal materials, all kinds of utensils, etc. According to the proportion, a certain amount of metal materials are kneaded into the demon's fur, and after molding, these furs are made into thousands of pieces of cloth according to a certain shape and rules, and then enchanted one cloth by another.

The enchantment operation is very complicated, the beginning is to analyze the material, analyze the material ratio, and after the analysis, find the usable rune magic array according to the material, and the last step is to prepare the solution and carry out the enchantment operation, which is very complicated.

At the end of the day, Rowan had only completed the enchantment of more than 20 pieces of materials, and a lot of data had been recorded in the small notebook.

The team was stationed here for a week, and finally, after paying hundreds of lives, finally completed the task, early in the morning, the team continued to the next place along the Leishan Mountain Range, at this time, Rowan clearly felt a dignified aura surrounding him.

Now, they've basically done half of the task, only half is left, and the next half is quite easy, I don't know why there is such an atmosphere.

Rowan also wanted to ask what happened, but he didn't ask in the end, anyway, no matter what happened, he just had to pay attention to his own safety.

The team pulled out and slowly moved to the southeast, and soon, the team continued to decompose, and the second squadron merged with the Sakurayama family and one other family to form a new squadron, and the loss of garrison personnel was too serious, and one squadron was directly broken up, and the others were shunted to other squadrons.

This is also one of the factors that make everyone's expressions solemn.

Coming to the next location, Rowan looked up, 10,000 grass and mud horses flew over, and in front of him was a cliff more than 400 meters high, and there was no way to go, but it still had to be cleaned up, if it went up, in case there was a group of demons on it, and it would not be able to escape.

But spit and spit and spit out, they still have to go up, even if it takes three days, they have to go up all of them.

Not enough for the people of this world to have excellent physical strength, to the intermediate warriors, there is no such thing as anyone climbing the mountain and falling, there is no road, a punch and a hole in the stone, isn't there a way.

The cliff more than 400 meters high, more than 1,000 people, spent a full morning, from reconnaissance, to risk removal, to normal climbing, more than 1,000 people arrived in a neat and orderly manner.

After reaching the top of the mountain, Rowan realized that there was really a relatively gentle slope on top of it, which extended to the front of a large mountain in front of him. He looked behind him and saw an endless barren grassland, stretching out to the point where he couldn't see it, where the view was wide and the surface was quite calm, and seeing this kind of scenery, he couldn't help but feel a calm mood in his heart.

The buffer zone between the Sacred Forest Empire and the Thunder Mountain Range is like this, no ordinary people dare to come over and plant, resulting in perennial barren grass here, but there are not many trees growing here, because the empire will send mages to spray tree suppressants to prevent trees from growing, and a specially formed barren grassland, whether it is a large demon or a small demon, will not like such a place, artificially forming a buffer zone.

At this glance, thousands of miles of fertile plains, after this fertile field, is the beautiful motherland rivers and mountains, just this kind of scene, it makes people breathe a long sigh in their hearts, this is the great Sacred Forest Empire.

Of course, Rowan certainly wouldn't have that kind of thought.

The soldiers looked back behind them, and their spirits seemed to be high again, it was this plain that raised them, and there were their parents, families, and children, and they were suddenly full of energy.

At this time, Rowan suddenly felt a slight hostility coming from the crowd, he was stunned for a moment, pretending not to care at all, and his mental power slowly looked over, ready to find the source of this hostility, but at this moment, this hostility disappeared again.

He turned his head pretending to look at the scenery and found that this hostility came from another family in the team, but he didn't know this family, and he didn't have any intersection with this family, how could there be hostility?

His mind turned a thousand times, and he found that he seemed to have no enemies other than some enemies of interest in Yorkshire, and he thought for a moment, came to Daley's side, and whispered a few words.

Daley glanced at the family over there and smiled, "This family, like us, is a candidate family for the rank of earl, they rely on the Yorkshire garrison, but they are not attached to any medium-sized families. ”

Rowan nodded, and stopped talking, if this guy was attached to the Yorkshire garrison, then who would have nothing to do and trouble him, or was there someone from a certain family in the Imperial garrison?

It's also possible!
