Chapter 302: The Realm of Chaos
On the second day, the Griffson Fortress also began the next day's busy inspection and release.
Generally, experienced chambers of commerce will be divided into two teams to be stationed in the fortress for a long time, each caravan not only has to bring their own specialties into Roewe for sale, but more importantly, they will hand over with the branch of the chamber of commerce from Roewe, and take the specialties belonging to Roewe away from the fortress.
The biggest benefit of this is to reduce the huge transportation costs from the middle of the continent to the south of the continent.
However, because of this, only the four major chambers of commerce in the major empires can do it, and even if other merchants have vision, they are unable to meet the hardware requirements in all aspects such as financial resources and power.
Soon, the caravan out of the customs began to set off in two completely different directions, the same Tianmu Forest, the forest in front of the Greaveson was long gone, and several major battles had already completely razed the place.
Han Feng sat in the carriage of a caravan and found that it was no wonder that countless caravans were stranded outside the fortress pass, and the endless convoys were scattered on the side of the road waiting to enter the pass. If the official road behind Griffson Fortress is said to be a sheep farm trail, then the land in front of you can be described as an open plain.
The dense forest is long gone, only a bare patch of scorched earth. The wreckage of many abandoned siege vehicles is scattered on this scorched earth, and occasionally you can see the white bones in the scorched earth. There was no trace of demonic beasts here, only caravans coming and going on the scorched earth, and there was not a trace of green life beyond that.
"The land here has no life, only a strong aura of death!" Han Feng said with a sigh after feeling it slightly
The leader of the caravan who sat in the car with Han Feng was called Joshua, who often traveled back and forth to the Roewe Empire, and was very impressed by the richness of this country, coupled with a good impression, he soon talked to Han Feng about speculation.
Joshua nodded when he heard Han Feng's emotion, and pointed to the devastated scorched earth and said
"After a great war here, the originally lush forest was completely destroyed by the armies of the three empires, and the demonic beasts that thrived here also had to migrate to the forest at the end of the scorched earth, and most of the beast tides of the demonic beasts in the Tianmu Forest will also launch a campaign against the two empires in the middle of the country, in order to retaliate for the destruction of the two empires!
"How terrifying is the destructive power of the beast tide?" Han Feng hadn't seen the tide launch with his own eyes, and he couldn't help but ask when he heard this
Joshua's eyes were slowly overwhelmed by a layer of fear, his lips trembled several times and he tried to speak but unfortunately he didn't succeed, Han Feng saw Joshua's appearance, and only waited for Joshua to calm down before continuing.
"The Scorching Sun Empire was originally a desolate area, and some strange monsters often appeared in the mountains there, some were composed of fire, some were made of stones, and some were demons evolved from minerals, and the demonic beasts of the Tianmu Forest would often fight with these monsters, but as soon as the beast tide of the Tianmu Forest launched, these fire and earth spirits seemed to be afraid and did not dare to appear.
Han Feng, have you ever seen an overwhelming number of demonic beasts pouring out of the forest, destroying the homes and villages of human beings? All the human beings who have no time to escape can only become the snacks of the demonic beasts, and no one survives wherever the demonic beasts pass, and every beast tide is a nightmare. ”
This caravan is a small caravan of the Haoyue Empire composed of 20 carriages, and after hearing that Han Feng plans to go to the Scorching Sun Empire to cultivate, he is also willing to carry Han Feng along the way, but this is also the result of Han Feng paying another 5,000 gold coins. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Han Feng still planned to use the cover of the Chamber of Commerce to slowly familiarize himself with the path. Watching the convoys full of food sneak one after another, Han Feng couldn't help but sigh at the gap in national strength.
There is no grain shortage on the Roewe side, and the land reclaimed is all state-owned, so farmers only need to grow grain and sell it to merchants. The Scorching Sun Empire was located in the eastern part of the continent, and due to years of war, the population of the country was reduced and the climate was harsh. The food produced by the barren land of the Scorching Sun Empire could not meet the needs of the Empire, and food became a major headache for the head of the Scorching Sun Empire.
But fortunately, the mountains and plains of the Scorching Sun Empire are rich in precious minerals, and the mined ores will be continuously transported to the rich Roewei Empire for sale through the purchase of the Chamber of Commerce, and the gold coins and monsters obtained will also be transformed into corresponding grains and specialties and transported back to the Scorching Sun Empire in a steady stream.
Along the way, the mercenaries hired by the caravan lazily leaned on the cart and took a nap, and the desolation along the way lasted for two days and one night before slowly showing some green. If you look at it from the map, you can see the distance between the entire Tianmu Forest and the Realm of Chaos at the junction of the two countries, which has been marked with a black arrow, indicating that this place has been conquered by the iron hooves of the two empires, and between the two countries with the Realm of Chaos as the dividing line, there is a Night Moon Swamp separating the two countries.
It can be said that the Realm of Chaos is actually a weak area in the Night Moon Swamp, and every time the beast tide in the Night Moon Swamp also makes the flow of people here, countless mercenaries, thieves, and teams with dreams of making a fortune gather groups here to go deep into the Night Moon Swamp. As for the passage of the caravan to the Scorching Sun Empire, it is also located in the Realm of Chaos, and all caravans must be prepared to pass a huge toll once they enter the Realm of Chaos, and obtain a pass token.
The caravan that gets the pass token can also be protected by the major forces of the Chaos Lord, and if you think the toll is too high? Sorry, what awaits you is an endless number of interceptions until the entire caravan is swallowed up.
The Realm of Chaos lives up to its name, but it's just a mess, this is the Three Regardless Zone, Haoyue has the right to manage this realm, but it has no real name. With the passage of time, the descendants of the god of war formed by the mercenary union, the magic wings formed by magicians, and the chaotic world alliance formed by the major forces in the Scorching Sun Empire, and the adventurer alliance established by groups of civilian warriors jointly distributed the benefits here.
In the Realm of Chaos, there will be fights all the time, and when the caravan enters the range of the Realm of Chaos, all the mercenaries cheer up and look around vigilantly.
Finally, the Realm of Chaos has arrived, and as long as the Realm of Chaos enters the trade route opened in the Night Moon Swamp, you can enter the Burning Sun Empire. Han Feng asked for a map of the Scorching Sun Empire during the exchange of the caravan Joshua, but Han Feng did not intend to continue to move forward with the caravan, the chaos here was exactly what Han Feng needed, and there was no need to worry about any laws here, and everyone was respected by the strong.
When the caravan entered the Chaos Domain, Han Feng also looked at the Chaos Territory from the car.
The walls of the Chaos Territory are not only ten meters high, and the city walls are also made of local materials and built with boulders and then watered with molten iron, the original black stone walls have also turned dark red with the tide of beasts again and again, and the dried and coagulated blood is still very clear, and with these traces of blood, a strong and pungent smell of blood is constantly coming from the city wall. One can imagine what this town has experienced every time the beast tide is launched.
The so-called city gate is no longer a gate, but a thorn wall of the same height as the city wall, the entire thorn wall is extremely thick, the whole body is smelted with dark iron, there are countless black iron steel thorns on it, each steel thorn is two meters long, although Han Feng does not know when this thorn wall was cast, but just from the dark red thorn wall emanating a strong smell of blood, you can see how much the impact of the demon beast this wall withstands.
The walls of thorns were wide open, engulfing the incoming caravans like a bottomless maw. From time to time, caravans came out of the inside, and caravans continued to enter the town, basically these caravans in and out looked at each other vigilantly, and the weapons in the hands of the mercenaries were also clawed.
Once in town, Han Feng said goodbye to Joshua and began to wander alone.
Although there are not many shops on the street, there is indeed a constant stream of people on the street. However, everyone was far away from Han Feng and looked back and pointed from time to time, and Han Feng also found that there were many eyes staring at him in the dark. There were people on the street who gathered with weapons to fight, and when they saw Han Feng dressed in black, they quickly ended the fight and hid to the side to make way for Han Feng, and Han Feng also noticed the trace of fear in the eyes of these people.
Quickly swaying on a street corner, Han Feng hid in a corner and pondered his findings.
"In terms of strength, most of these people are at the level of war generals to war kings, and they are very fierce with each other, but I didn't show my strength, why do these people, including pedestrians, avoid me?"
Han Feng began to think back, from the moment he entered the town, everyone saw that there was a trace of fear in their eyes, what were they afraid of? first, he didn't have a weapon in his hand, and second, he didn't show the momentum of a war emperor. Is it because of your own behavior?
After thinking about it for a while, Han Feng quickly understood the origin of these people's fear of him, and it was this black cloth.
Aisha had mentioned before that the real master of the Chaos Realm was Divine Punishment, and only the people in the Divine Punishment were dressed in black in the Chaos Lord, and once the others found out that they were pretending to be Divine Punishment, the outcome was usually very miserable.
However, Han Feng didn't plan to change his clothes, speaking of which, Han Feng could be regarded as being stained with the light of divine punishment, and now Han Feng has four or five tokens of divine punishment assassin in his hand, including three tokens of silver killers.
