When the players began to flood into the Blue Dragon City, Ling Chen spent almost all of his next time riding his horse and galloping.

The plains are followed by the mountain forest area, and the mountain forest area is roaming with level 20 to 30 monsters, and there are many types, and there are various hidden traps, which are much more dangerous than the plain area, and the mountain forest area is a medium-sized town. On the Shenyue Continent, in addition to the main city, the secondary city. There are countless towns and villages in large and medium, and towns outside of the main city will also sell corresponding return scrolls, so these towns not only hide various large and small missions and provide supplies, but also can use the return scrolls of these towns to move quickly. Therefore, every time Ling Chen passes through a town, he will stop to buy the return roll of this town, and then ask the NPCs here for the most convenient way through Silent Soul Ridge.

The only hidden quest is that the difficulty is so high that the first step of this quest is even more difficult...... Going straight east from Qinglong City for more than two hundred kilometers, if you just run, it is just a matter of consuming some time, but there are countless monster territories along the way, and the more you get back, the more dangerous the high-level monsters. To reach the quest point safely through the territory of all these high-level monsters, it is not possible for ordinary players to do it.

Ling Chen ran non-stop, running from night to early morning. He had clearly noticed that the farther east he went, the sparser the towns became, and the rarer they became. The place he was in now was desolate, the mountains were chaotic, and it was obviously much more difficult to run than when he first left Blue Dragon City. And obviously, this is a good place to be infested with all kinds of predators. So along the way, Ling Chen has never relaxed his vigilance and always keeps an eye on his surroundings. Level 13, such a level is high among players, even if he doesn't practice for three days, no one can catch up, but in the entire Forgotten Continent, this is the level that is completely at the bottom of the strength. And in this dangerous place, a random monster is enough to kill him.

Stepping out of the territory of the forty-fifth level monster sawtooth blood leopard, Ling Chen came to a safe area and finally stopped. When he was about to go offline, the intercom rang and the sound of Yunfeng was heard.

"Haha, Ling Chen! Did you hear it, an all-night desperate upgrade, and now it's finally in Qinglong City. I'm in the square right now...... Damn, the scale of this player is too terrifying, and the transfer hall can't be squeezed into it at all. By the way, where are you now? My sister Mengxin arrived last night and has changed jobs, let me take you to meet her, she will be pleasantly surprised to know that the helper I found for her is you. ”

"The guild your sister is going to set up is called 'Heart Dream', right?" Ling Chen asked.

"Yes."

"How many are there now?"

"Uh...... Ahem, in fact, the 'Heart Dream' has not really been established until now, and it has not appeared in the previous game world, and there is no personnel base, so it can only start to develop gradually after arriving in Qinglong City. So, initially, it could only appear in the form of the smallest guild model, the studio, and then it developed little by little. Now, counting you, it's a total of ...... Five people. ”

Ling Chen: "......"

"Well, I also know that the number is terrible, but ...... Alas, no matter what, I can't sit idly by. This is her last struggle, and I know her nature, even if I know it's impossible, I have to try...... She said that even a small and almost completely invisible hope is still hope, and there is always the slightest possibility of existence, and if you don't even have the courage to try and give up, that is the real sadness. Yun Feng sighed several times in succession. All along, from what he said and what he did, Ling Chen could feel that he really loved his only sister...... Just as he loved Shuiruo.

Ling Chen was silent for a while, and then said, "This is what she said?" ”

"Hmm."

At this moment, Ling Chen had a slight desire to see this girl named "Yun Mengxin", at least in her persistent temperament, she was really similar to him.

"I just arrived in Qinglong City, there must be a lot of things to deal with, let's stabilize it for a day or two. I also have a task at hand. Let's talk about her in a day or two. Ling Chen said. Because of Shui Ruo, he will definitely help Yun Mengxin until he reaches Yun Feng's expectations. But it is indeed too difficult to support a girl who can now be said to have nothing in two days.

"No problem! Just contact me when you're free! By the way, that Ling Xiao ......"

Syllable!

Ling Chen hung up directly, and went offline to make breakfast for Shui Ruo.

In the afternoon, Ping'an Town.

According to what the Qinglong City Lord said before, Ping'an Town is the closest town close to the Silent Soul Ridge, and if it continues to the east, it will be no longer inhabited, because less than fifteen kilometers away, it is the "gloomy place" that everyone fears. The name of Ping'an Town was also apparently chosen by the villagers to pray for peace. After all, they were so close to such a dangerous place, and they couldn't help but worry about disaster at any time.

Arriving in Ping'an Town means that it is already very close to Silent Soul Ridge.

Frankly speaking, the reason why Ling Chen didn't spend more time on leveling up and was in a hurry to come here was mainly to gather enough information as soon as possible, and then have enough time to prepare. His current strength is in the Forgotten Continent, and he is completely at the bottom of the bottom, so many masters of the Forgotten Continent have not been able to come back alive when they go to the Silent Soul Ridge, he really can't find any reason to believe that he can do more than them.

Ping'an Town is very small, and there are only a few hundred people in the whole town, but there are all kinds of shops that should be there. However, with the exception of the main city, there were no energy crystals sold in the item shops in all the towns he passed by. Obviously, selling hedrons is a privilege only in the main city.

"Hello uncle, how do you get to Lonely Soul Ridge?" Almost every house in Ping'an Town is closed, and there are few pedestrians on the streets. Ling Chen finally waited for one, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

"Oh, it's about fifteen kilometers northeast from here...... What the!? You're going to Lonely Soul Ridge? The middle-aged man who reacted showed a frightened look on his face, and then hurriedly stopped: "Young man, you should be an adventurer passing by here, right?" Don't go to that place in Soul Ridge, it's a place of complete death, and no one who goes there ever comes back alive! I've lived here for decades, and I still feel chills all over my body when I think of the name of Lonely Soul Ridge, don't go! ”

The frightened expression on the face of this middle-aged man was not at all false, having lived in the nearest town to Silent Soul Ridge for so many years, he was still so frightened when he heard this name, he could imagine what a terrible place it was, Ling Chen asked, "Why is that place so terrifying?" Could it be that there are very powerful monsters inside? ”

"Well, no one knows about this at all." The middle-aged man shook his head: "There is a gloomy place in front of the Lonely Soul Ridge, surrounded by ghosts, and there are groups of terrible undead and zombies wandering in it. Although the undead aura in the gloomy place is terrifying, if you are prepared, you will not die, our village is only a dozen kilometers away from the gloomy land, and it will also be affected by the death aura there, so the village has a way to resist this necromantic aura a long time ago. But even so, once anyone passes through the gloomy place and enters the confines of Silent Soul Ridge, no one will be able to come back, just like disappearing from the world. Young man, you should be an adventurer from another world, right? Otherwise, you won't be unaware of the horror of Silent Soul Ridge. It's one of the forbidden places that everyone in the entire Forgotten Continent fears, so don't go near it. ”

Necromantic breath?

Ling Chen nodded: "I see, thank you for telling me here." By the way, what is the method you just said can ward off the breath of necromancy? ”

"Oh, it's a food unique to our village, and after eating it, it can reduce the effects of necromancy for a certain period of time, and it's so delicious that I haven't eaten enough of it for decades. This kind of food is sold there, and after you taste it, you will definitely understand what is delicious in heaven! The middle-aged man pointed to a small room with a closed door and said, with a look of satisfaction and intoxication on his face, as if he was reminiscing about the "delicious taste that only exists in heaven" in his mouth.

Ling Chen remembered the location of the room, thought for a while, and then continued to ask, "Is there a plant called 'Black Flame Grass' on the Silent Soul Ridge?" ”

The middle-aged man nodded: "In the ancient records about Silent Soul Mountain, there is indeed information about Black Flame Grass. But since Silent Soul Ridge became a forbidden place, it is unknown whether there is still the existence of Black Flame Grass. Speaking of Black Flame Grass, some time ago, there were several waves of teams from Blue Dragon City who went to Silent Soul Ridge in search of Black Flame Grass without listening to our persuasion, and they haven't come back yet, and they must have turned into dead souls there. Young man, remember my words, and don't go near there. It's a lot scarier than you think. ”

After talking to the middle-aged man, Ling Chen walked around Ping'an Town for a long time, and every time he saw a townsman, he would go up and ask, but he didn't get any other useful information. The people here would look frightened when they heard the words "Silent Soul Ridge", and then desperately tried to prevent him from going to that place. Without further questioning, Ling Chen came to the room that the middle-aged man was referring to, pushed open the door, and a white hot air suddenly rushed to his face.

"Hello, adventurers from afar, come and drink a bowl of our unique delicacy here to drive away the chill on your body, I believe you will understand what is the delicious taste of heaven after tasting it! You may even want to stay here forever and be with such a delicacy for a lifetime. A skinny old man said with a smile on his face while holding a steaming bowl.

…… What kind of food is it that really delicious? Ling Chen stretched out his head to look at the big bowl in his hand.

Rice Porridge: A porridge made from rice, which restores health for 10 minutes after use, and weakens the effect of necromantic breath to a certain extent within 10 minutes. Selling price: 3 credits.

Ling Chen: "! @#￥%……”

"Let's have twenty bowls." The corners of Ling Chen's mouth twitched, and without saying a word of nonsense, he took out six gold coins and traded them to the old man. Twenty bowls of rice porridge can take effect for 200 minutes, he came this time to explore the way, he didn't think about completing the task, twenty bowls should be enough. What's more, he remembered that when he left Blue Dragon City, he only had a few gold coins left on him, and he couldn't buy too much if he wanted to.

So, Ling Chen, who had prepared twenty bowls of hot rice porridge, drove the cloud horse and went straight to the Silent Soul Ridge in the northeast.
