Chapter 16: Scarlet Canyon!
(Chapter 2 arrives!) Thank you for the tips of GDFHDGGGG and Xiaoyaoyi brother! Ask for collection, ask for tickets, ask for tickets, ~~~~~)
Scarlet Canyon!
"That's where the endless blood of both humans and orcs is stained red!"
"The grave of the weak! The Holy Land of the Strong!"
"A blood barrier stained red with countless bloods!"
"Where danger and opportunity are equal!"
In the information Rhodes gathered from his family and the Gods Game Space, it was this place that described the Scarlet Canyon as an unusually bloody and dangerous place. Among the information collected in the game space of the gods, there is only a series of rather abstract information, such as "located at the junction of the Far North Mountains and the Western Sekel Mountains", "the length should be more than 900 kilometers, the maximum width is more than 120 kilometers, and the terrain is extremely dangerous", "It belongs to the territory of the Sail Kingdom in the Five Northern Kingdoms, and it is far away from the Taran Kingdom".
Even if Rhodes threw out the spiritual coordinates along the way and obtained more detailed information from the Talan Kingdom and the Sail Kingdom, it was really difficult for Rhodes to have a real feeling of this kind of information separated by a layer and subjective consciousness, not to mention that most of it was hearsay or even extremely exaggerated.
But now that Rhodes has seen the real Scarlet Canyon with his own eyes, he understands how steep and magnificent the Scarlet Canyon in this world is!
According to Rhodes's estimates, there are still at least dozens of kilometers away from the Scarlet Canyon, but from here you can see the towering Far North Mountains and the Sekkel Mountains (Note 1), which are at least several thousand meters high (Note 1), although they are much lower (compared to the Far North Mountains).
According to the information gathered by the game space of the gods, the Far North Mountains stretch from the northern pole all the way here, and the Seckel Mountains that spread from the wild forests also extend here in an arc from the territory of the Western Dominion Alliance. I don't know how many dangers and monsters there are in these two vast mountain ranges that can be called Jedi and natural dangers, and after the Orc Empire was driven to the Orc Wasteland, the possibility of a large-scale breakthrough of the human defense line from other locations was strangled into the cradle!
Originally, Rhodes didn't believe it very much, but now after seeing the real Far North Mountains and the Sekel Mountains, he has to admit that these two mountains definitely belong to the kind of places that are not suitable for anyone to live!
If you have to make a comparison, probably the Himalayas on the earth of Rhodes in the last life are an example, basically in the age of cold weapons, I have never heard of a large army being able to pass through that place and directly invade the Celestial Empire - and that is still the situation where there are no supernatural forces on the earth!
Now this is a magical world full of wild monsters and ferocious beasts, and the Far North Mountains and Savage Forests are famous in this world's dangerous areas, in which all kinds of Jedi and powerful magical beasts can make anyone fearful, and the annihilation of many strong and powerful legions such as humans, elves, orcs, and a large number of strong legions proves the danger of it.
Therefore, when the Orc Empire was defeated and retreated to the Orc Wilderness, it was found that if it wanted to invade the human world on a large scale, it could only break through from the Blood Canyon!
For thousands of years, behind the name of the Blood Canyon is truly made of the blood of countless humans and orcs, and it is a veritable "Blood" Canyon!
"Let's go!" Seeing that the people around him were all looking at the blood-colored canyon in a daze, Rhodes, who was the first to wake up, was not angry, but showed a trace of excitement and excitement in his eyes. However, Rod quickly suppressed this expression, and then opened his mouth to wake up the others who were still immersed in shock.
"Ah yes! Master Rhodes!"
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
The famous saying that Wangshan runs a dead horse has once again been verified in another world!
After seeing the Scarlet Canyon, it was already three hours after Rhodes and his party rushed to the Scarlet Canyon - this was still the speed at which the group was basically non-stop!
However, when they were still about ten kilometers away from the Scarlet Canyon, Rhodes and his party were stopped by a patrolling cavalry.
"Are you from that kingdom? What is the intention of coming to the Scarlet Canyon?" After stopping Rod and his group, the bronze knight wearing the enchanted knight's armor looked at Rhodes and asked loudly.
"We are the people of the Kingdom of Taran! It's the escorts who have come to join the Hurricane Corps!" Seeing the indifferent expressions of the dozen or so cavalrymen who were following the Bronze Knights, the Tamon Knights, as the leader of the team, hurriedly stood up and showed an item like a badge on his hand while explaining.
"Huh? Let me see!"
When he saw what looked like a badge in the hand of the Tamon Knight, the Bronze Knight, who had an indifferent face, couldn't help but let out a surprise, and then urged the half-breed war horse under his ass to step forward and stretch out his hand.
Knight Tamon was also very aware of current affairs, and directly handed over the badge that seemed to have a silver texture in his hand.
"It is indeed the insignia of the Knights of the Hurricane Legion! Please follow me!" The bronze knight with a flame pattern on the armor on his chest said to Rhodes and his party in a very polite tone after taking the silver-like badge and coming up with an answer after carefully checking and comparing it.
As a member of the human garrison in the Scarlet Canyon, the Hurricane Legion is of course a companion, and Rhodes's party, who are close to the Knights under the Hurricane Legion, are of course looked down upon.
"Thank you!" The Tammon Knight put away the badge handed back by the other party, and then shouted to the people behind him, "Hurry up and follow!"
When the group followed the patrol in front, Rod, who was riding on a horse, suddenly showed a hint of relaxation on his face, but his eyes were full of caution when he looked at the black giant city wall in the blood-colored canyon.
"The power of the magic detective has shifted! Sure enough, it's a bloody canyon."
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Half an hour later, in front of the black city wall in the blood-colored canyon, Rhodes and his party looked up at the towering black city wall, and everyone's expression was extremely surprised or shocked.
Well, the group has seen a lot on the road, and it is not unseen that the city wall with a maximum height of fifty meters in the several county towns entered. But with the walls that looked at least a hundred meters tall and looked like a mountain, surprise was not something to be ashamed of, at least Rhodes was shocked when he saw it for the first time.
The black rock walls, which are more than 100 meters high and at least 80 kilometers long, are truly spectacular!
Rhodes felt that this magical world with magical powers could easily do this, and in the era of cold weapons on Earth, building this kind of project would be no less than building the Great Wall or the Grand Canal - the Scarlet Canyon was not the only giant wall called the Black Barrier!
"Hah! Stunned, right? But don't be ashamed, because most people have this expression when they see the black barrier for the first time" When Rhodes and his party were stunned, Stark, the bronze knight of the Flame Legion who had just reported his name to Knight Tamon and Rhodes, smiled kindly, and then comforted Rhodes and his party.
Well, although the warriors in the Scarlet Canyon are not very friendly to strangers, as Rhodes, who also belongs to the Scarlet Canyon Garrison Legion, has a relationship with the Hurricane Legion and intends to join, is still looked down upon by Stark, at least in terms of attitude and tone, it can barely be regarded as a friend.
"Stark Knight, are we going straight into the Scarlet Canyon like this?"
Listening to the Stark Knight's words, Rhodes, who withdrew his gaze from the waiting crowd in front of the giant city gate on the side, opened his mouth and asked with some curiosity.
Rod saw with his own eyes that the people who were waiting for most asked about the origin, and then easily entered the Scarlet Canyon. Although the detectives of the Gods Game Space knew what was going on, Rhodes still pretended not to know and asked Stark Knight to see if the other party was planning to fool him
"Hah! You'll know this when you enter the Scarlet Canyon, it's not that simple anyway."
As for Rod's question, Stark bought it a little.
"Isn't it just magic detection, I think I'm a mysterious god" Looking at Stark, who was a cold-faced and cool brother on the surface, but was actually a chatter, Rod couldn't help but pout, muttering to himself in his heart.
When he first came into contact with Stark, the Gods Game Space alerted Rhodes to the detection of magical energy. At such a close distance now, the magic energy fluctuations from the black barrier were even more clearly felt in the game space of the gods. Even Rhodes already knew that there were five mage towers behind the entire black barrier!
Rhodes's own mental activity was not expressed on his face, and he still looked ahead with a "curious" expression.
Compared to Rod, the Tamon Knight and the others looked at the Black Barrier with excitement on their faces.
After almost five months of arduous travel, they have finally reached their destination and are about to enter the Scarlet Canyon!
"Come in with me!"
After waiting for a while, Stark, who had been chattering and using his talent for chattering to the fullest, watched the vacancy in front of him before stopping, and then spoke and motioned for Rhodes and his party to follow him into the Scarlet Canyon.
"Keep up!"
With the shouts of the Tamon Knights, Rhodes and his party followed the Stark Knights and his party to enter the black barrier like a hill!
(Note 1: Sekel Mountains, "Sekel" is an orc word meaning danger.) In fact, the entire Sekel Mountains are linked to the largest wild forest on the continent and the elven forest in the south, and the wild forest and elven forest are all extremely dangerous areas for the human race, just like the Far North Mountains, Nightmare Glacier, and Storm Sea. )
