The snow kept falling, the sky looked oppressive and gray, and such a cold world was not very suitable for habitation, but at the bottom of the valley there was a village inhabited not by humans, but by some strange-looking crow people.

The old knight Gail's knee injury had not fully recovered even under Zhang Lin's treatment, and he still walked with a limp, but judging from his expression, the pain was much less.

At this point, the snow was so thick that it almost completely covered the calves.

"Be careful with the ground under your feet, we can't tell if it's solid underneath." As he walked, the old knight poked the ground in front of him with his sword from time to time, just like where Zhang Lin and Ciris had fallen before, and the snow above many of the pits could hardly bear the weight of a person.

At the end of the mountain road on the left side of the suspension bridge, there is a wooden ladder more than ten meters high, which is very hidden under the ice and snow, and you can't notice it if you don't poke your head out.

Follow the wooden ladder to a narrow mountain road on the edge of the cliff, the snow and ice in this position are much smaller, and the fog is not so dense, and you can see the scene in the cliff at this time.

Beneath the hillside where the church was located stretched out of the hill countless huge roots that twisted and twisted, on which some Millwood warriors walked aimlessly, and some soldiers in different costumes carried blazing torches or spears.

At the base of the cliff is a frozen river, and at a deeper point, a four-storey circular building can be seen, somewhat resembling an ancient Roman arena, but too small.

Gale noticed the two of them's gaze, "Milwood's hometown was destroyed by the Abyss, they were exiled into this world, but their arrival also brought corrosion, and those Farran Wraiths also wandered here in pursuit of the purpose of destroying the Abyss, this is like a shelter for those who have lost their homeland," Gaelgan laughed a few times, "The arena, that old building, was gradually abandoned when the last knight who came to Astra became the champion, and in the end, the knight who lost his goal was buried here." ”

There are many stalactite-like ice picks on the cliff, which are as crystal clear as gemstones, but they can only be smashed into pieces because they block the way.

The three of them came all the way to a slope connected to the bottom of the mountain, and Ciris walked up without much thought, but his feet slipped and he slipped directly down the slope, and at the same time, Zhang Lin was pulled by her.

The old knight looked at the two screaming and sliding down, shook his head, untied his robe and spread it under him, and then slid down at a slower pace.

The temperature below the canyon was much better than on the mountain, and the snow on the ground was only a thin layer, and there were knee-high weeds everywhere, and the two people who had rushed down the smooth slope fell into the grass with a thud.

"Let's settle down." Before Zhang Lin complained about Cialis pulling him down, Cialis took the lead and made him hold back the words in his mouth.

After waiting for a while, he saw the old knight come down, "You young people are just impatient. ”

You can already see the village not far away, built on a hill and surrounded by a wall about four meters high, through which you can see many houses made of gray stone bricks.

Walking along the fence towards the open gate, there was a lot of stagnant water that had not yet completely melted, and in the water lay some crowmen with stripped hair, and their gray skin stained with mud looked a little disgusting.

They were all lying on the ground weakly, and if they couldn't see the ups and downs of their bodies from their breathing, they might have thought that they were corpses.

"They have given up even hope, and they just need to wait for the eldest lady to draw a new picture." Gail frowned as he looked at the lying corpse.

Although he deliberately avoided these crow people, Zhang Lin still accidentally stepped on a crow man, "Eh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." ”

The crow man who was trampled did not jump up and fight hard, but rattled, raised his head and glanced at Zhang Lin with his beaked face, and then hung his head weakly and continued to lie in the stagnant water.

Because of the presence of these guys, this stagnant water emits a foul smell that makes people want to get away from it quickly.

"What is this?" Ciris also accidentally stepped on a mass of brown mud with weeds dragged behind the Raven Man, which was frowned upon to the touch, even through his boots.

"That's a piece of grass." Zhang Lin glanced at it and smiled, "The sharp weapon in the projectile." ”

"Can you not be so disgusting!?" Hilliston was furious, complaining about Zhang Lin while cleaning the filth from his boots on the stone bricks of the fence.

The entrance to the village was now like a waterway, and large red mushroom blankets grew in the pools, and the blood-red things on the walls and various corners where sunlight could not reach them, these blood-red things were the same as they had been seen in the cave before, which was uncomfortable, especially since the area covered here was quite large.

There were some active crow people in the village, they were not interested in everything around them, they did not have the desire to attack like living corpses, they just wandered like ghosts, but there were also some kneeling on the ground, praying to the church on the hillside in the distance, and even more disgustingly, there were some people with swollen eyes lying on the fungus blanket and nibbling on the blood-colored fruit in the shape of insect eggs, they were more like flies than those raven people.

"Gail, you're back? Hasn't the priest lit the fire yet? ”

Gale led the two to a house, where he saw a raven man leaning back by the fire to keep warm, looking up at the old knight, who looked a little decadent, but not as dull-eyed as the fellows who wandered outside.

"It's burned, but it looks like someone stopped you," Gail sighed, "Have you met any other outsiders?" ”

"I saw a black knight send the eldest lady to the library at the back of the village, I don't think the eldest lady has any intention of resisting?" The Raven Man looked at Gale a little strangely, "Are those people trying to stop the flames from burning this corrupt world?" ”

"Damn, I hope that guy didn't hurt the eldest lady! I have to go right away. ”

"Then hurry up, Gail, we are all waiting for the priest to set this world on fire, waiting for the eldest lady to draw a new picture, there are more and more corrupt things outside." The Raven People are somewhat listless, and they, the Raven Aborigines, are becoming more and more difficult to survive with the effects of the Rot.

Aredell is a world painted by the blood of dark souls, so when the world is corrupted, the blood that makes up the world also begins to deteriorate, and those red fungus carpets that grow everywhere are such corrupt things, and the only way to destroy them is to burn the world with flames.
