The path of living sacrifices, as the name suggests, is the way to send living people to churches as sacrifices, and some people are forced to take this road by being locked in cars, while others are persuaded to take this road voluntarily.

But without exception, these sacrifices suffered greatly before they died, for Eldridge loved to eat the living while enjoying each other's struggles and wails, and it was hard to imagine that he had been named a saint.

At this time, there was no convoy of sacrificial goods on the road, some abandoned carriages were lying on the side of the road, several poorly dressed people were carrying axes to cut trees on the side of the road, and another person was sharpening one end of the cut wood with a firewood knife, and after cutting, someone picked up the wood horizontally and carried it to a distance.

If it is just an ordinary lumberjack, it should not do the sharpening step, and if the sharp trunk hits a person, it will definitely end up in the intestines.

One of them saw Zhang Lin walking from the side of the tower, greeted his companion and walked over.

"I thought that when the church people closed the door, no one would come down, and there were still living people on it."

"Why do you think that, aren't you a villager of the settlement?" Zhang Lin felt a little strange why this person would make such a judgment.

"Of course not, we have always lived at the bottom of the mountain, except for the undead who appear and will be sent up the mountain, no one else will run to that damn village," the lumberjack shrugged, his expression and tone were quite taboo about the undead settlement, "It seems that you came down from the mountain, we heard the bell ring before, and many people left, what is going on on the mountain?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just that there are more immortals, and there's something strange."

"Forget it, you don't look like you know much......" the lumberjack muttered, placing his logging axe, which was holding a little green in his hand, on the raised stone beside him, and then picking up a relatively clean stone and sitting down, "Where are you going, church?" I don't want to go to the Farran Fortress, although the undead legion is no longer there, but there are still a lot of demon Gollum who serve them, and some desperate explorers want to go to the catacombs to find some antiquities but those guys have their heads cut off......"

"I'm just going to deliver a letter to the secluded church," Zhang Lin interrupted the lumberjack to continue, "You know a lot about the Flange Fortress?" ”

But the next moment, Zhang Lin regretted that he had asked such a sentence.

"It turned out to be a herald, but you don't look like you," the lumberjack looked at Zhang Lin again, and then gushed again, "The people of our village were also the attendants of the immortal squad a long time ago, and it is really strange for the living to serve the undead, but the immortal squad is so powerful, an army can destroy a powerful kingdom that is touched into the abyss...... By the way, those demons I talked about before, they are demons after all, and some disobedient ones will be punished with a cross, and the punishment knows no, it is tied to a cross and the body is torn apart......"

In the case of inconvenience, Zhang Lin had to listen patiently to the end, and he should listen to the story, but this thing has a match and no match, obviously not good at this, but it is just pure talk.

"How do I get to the church?"

"It's very simple, that is, forward, then left, right, left, and forward, back and forth, it's good to go back and forth, this is not a city, and the road is not easy to walk."

Zhang Lin stared at the other party in a daze, the easy road to walk will be blinded by you if you say this.

The latter was stared at by Zhang Lin a little hairy, thinking that this person would not have any habits, so he shrank back, "Is there any more problem?" ”

"No, it's gone."

After that, Zhang Lin was about to leave, but the lumberjack stopped him again, "Eh, friend, do you see those guys over there?" ”

Zhang Lin looked in the direction pointed by the other party, and saw several humanoid creatures with black feathers listening to something around a fellow person with a wooden cane.

"Those crow-looking creatures call themselves taboos, and they come from a world in a painting, and I can't imagine any other world in the painting. These guys were almost treated like monsters by us when they first appeared, don't do anything to them," the lumberjack said as he said where they came from, and then the conversation changed, "The one in the lead is a storyteller, who specializes in telling stories about spreading fire, and after getting acquainted with it, the villagers also like to listen to him, really, it's obviously not as good as me......"

Zhang Lin decided not to listen to this guy anymore and walked forward without saying a word.

The lumberjack indulged in his world for a long time before realizing that there was no one in front of him, shook his head, picked up the axe beside him and returned to work.

"Who was that guy just now?" The lumberjack's companion asked.

"Oh, as soon as the letter is delivered, I'll say it......" The lumberjack topic resumed.

Another lumberjack knocked on the guy who was asking, "Tell you to ask, work, work." ”

The basic place of work of these people is on this road at the foot of the mountain, and even they rarely approach the swamp below, and even when the flames are strong, there are many dangers. Even so, there are still people who try to enter the ruins of the French Fortress or Casas in search of treasures and lose their lives.

Occasionally, you can see abandoned camps left behind in areas that are not hidden by swamps, or shelters under artificially cleared ruins.

Zhang Lin did not meet the bandits mentioned by Grerat, but met some magicians from the Piheim Academy, who came here to find the magical heritage of Ulashlu, most of them focused on the items they found, and were silent, only a young mage named Orbeck chatted with Zhang Lin a few more words, unlike those colleagues, he directly found the crystallized old man who left the Great Library a long time ago to assist the Fran Immortals, and the other party was not so difficult to get along with, and provided him with a lot of ancient scrolls.

The poisonous insects near the swamp did not cause much trouble to Zhang Lin, and these reptiles carrying poisonous fungi on their backs were not fast, but their camouflage would make some daredevils realize that it was too late when they were shrouded in poisonous fog.

However, compared to these poisonous insects, the most deadly are the mutated crabs in the swamp, which are the size of a basin in their juveniles.

Zhang Lin happened to see an explorer exploring in the swamp being smashed to the ground by a mutant crab rushing from behind, and before the unlucky guy could recover from the mud on his face and the sharp pain in his back, the huge crab claws stopped him and lifted him up, and with his screams, the crab claws swayed continuously, and finally the guy broke in two with a click.

This is the end of not paying attention to the surrounding environment when picking up things, Zhang Lin mourned for the other party for a second.

It's not that no one has thought of dealing with such a monster that is more than three meters tall by going around the pillar, just from the broken trees in the swamp you can guess what will happen to them.

But this kind of mutant creature that is rampant and domineering like a chariot can't be without weaknesses, and even this guy will take the initiative to expose the weak abdomen of the crab shell cracked after his mutation during the attack, even if he doesn't use a hot weapon, Zhang Lin followed the opponent's movement and stabbed the sword directly from the place between its abdomen and the pair of bubble eyes, such an attack almost killed it at once, and soon the guy who buried many explorers became a motionless "big stone" in the swamp under Zhang Lin's follow-up mending knife.

Some of the explorers who saw this scene seemed to have learned something, and wanted to reproduce Zhang Lin's movements, but the second guy who was clamped in half proved to them that there are some things that are about talent and skill.
