The Mountain Country of Couran, located in the northwest corner of the Yala continent, is a country built in the middle of a lofty mountain. The territory of Kuran is all composed of mountains, and more than 300,000 square kilometers of land are all composed of mountain ranges, which is one of the wonders of the Yala continent. It is difficult for a normal person to imagine what it would be like if there were only majestic mountains in the territory of a country, and this kind of doubt can only be solved after seeing Kuran in person.

The territory of Couran is long and narrow, containing eight mountain ranges of varying lengths, covering an area of more than 300,000 square kilometers and inhabiting five million people. In this mountainous country, the predominant race is the dwarves, who make up four-fifths of the population. In addition to dwarves, the second race is humans and orcs, once because of wars and natural disasters, many refugees from other countries fled to the mountain country, where they survived and multiplied, the population of the two races has reached more than 300,000 each, they have adapted to the life of the mountain country, and it is difficult to integrate into the world of their own people in the outside world. The fourth race of the Mountain Country is the goblins, and the descendants of this group of survivors of the Second Age have grown to more than 200,000 people after nearly 10,000 years of development. In the middle of the Tertiary Age, the goblin survivors entered the mountain country with the help of the dwarves, and although they had long lost the technology and knowledge of their ancestors, they were not discouraged by their expertise in scientific research and development, but also developed a lot of new technologies from the beginning. Perhaps because of their height, goblins and dwarves in the mountain country have the closest relationship and the highest level of trust in each other.

There are only three ways to get into Curland. First, climb the Featherman Mountains to the east, then cross Eden Gorge and follow the Eugene Trail all the way to Gard, the gateway to the east. With the exception of the Eden Gorge to the Eugene Trail, the rest of the eastern part of Mountain Country is so steep and impassable that even high-level professionals can climb over these mountains as a very troublesome task, almost an impossible task. As a result, the eastern city of Gar became the only gateway to the east, but since the Featherman Mountains were also not easy to cross, and the winged people did not like strangers to travel through their territory, few people would choose this route.

The second way to get in is by land and water, sailing along the coastline all the way to the northwestern coast, and although most of the cliffs are steep coastal cliffs, there are several natural harbors for seafarers to stop and rest, although these natural harbors are also surrounded by cliffs, but there is a flat land after all, and the port of Garibuel is one of them, and it is the only one of these natural harbors that is operated by people. Landing at the port of Garibuel, crossing the entire port to the col behind the port, you can see the most magnificent project ever built on the continent of Yara, the Garibuel Tunnel. With the help of the goblins' surveying techniques, the dwarves dug a 73-kilometer-long artificial tunnel at the bottom of the cliff behind the harbor, which was evenly maintained at a width of 30 meters and a height of 10 meters, spiraling upwards along the mountain's peak, ascending a gentle slope from the belly of the mountain, and finally reaching Wanghai City halfway up the mountain. The combination of goblins and dwarves is indeed very reliable, and for more than 2,000 years, the tunnel has not collapsed. However, due to the difficulties of navigation and the discomfort of long tunnels, the road is mostly only a freight route, and no one wants to choose this place as a way into the mountain country unless it is absolutely necessary.

The third way to enter, and the one most commonly chosen, is to enter the land of mountains through the gateway city of Chongshan Castle in the south. The location of Chongshan City is on the southern border of the Mountain Country, just at the junction of the Orc Grassland, the Sea Country Kasa and the Mountain Country, and is the most important transportation artery in the Mountain Country, and almost all land transportation will pass through this city, which has led to Chongshan City becoming the most prosperous city in the Mountain Country, and it is also the city with the most complex racial structure in the Mountain Country.

Since the members of Nelly's adventure group chose the land route, they naturally wanted to take Chongshan City as their destination, so they chose a very common route, starting from the Knowledge Capital into the territory of the Neville Federation, going northwest to the vicinity of the Glitter Forest, and then walking north along the edge of the Glitter Forest into the Orc Grassland, and then continuing to the northwest along the forest border inside the Orc Grassland, all the way to Chongshan City. This path is neither the nearest nor the fastest, and it is not even a mainstream choice. From this road, most of the time you can't travel along the wide road, and many times you need to go through the wilderness, which is far more dangerous than the road, especially after entering the orc grassland, maybe when you will encounter a group of monsters or beasts wandering in the grassland, if it is a travel team composed of several ordinary people, it is difficult to reach the destination safely.

However, it is the most comfortable of all the routes, because thanks to the high speed and high mobility of the magic car, it is easy to find nearby villages or tribes as resting places along the way, regardless of the territory of that country. The fact that you could spend the night in a warm inn or in a bed in a house by following this route, without even having to be on the lookout for the dangers of the wilderness, transformed the expedition from an adventurous journey to a comfortable one. As for the danger, if you can encounter a danger that would be feared by four Legendary-level adventurers plus a former demigod, then I am afraid that there will be no villages and tribes along the way.

No one would question the plan of the route drawn up by Pannis and Catherine, and everyone understood why they had made this choice, and they all supported it equally.

"Boom boom", on the vast orc grassland, accompanied by a low roar, the two magic motor cars ran along the waist-deep grass at high speed, and the grass stalks on both sides whipped on the body of the locomotive passengers like whips, but with the ** strength of their legendary level, such whipping and tearing were as if they were just touching lightly, and they could not bring any pain at all.

Now it is Pannith and Freya who are driving, Freya's magic car is in front, Catherine is sitting in the back seat with her waist around her, of course, it is not a simple thing to want to wrap around Freya's waist, but after all, it is the powerful Catherine, she actually did it. Although there were only two people in a car, Catherine's heavy equipment and Freya's heavy body made it impossible to mourn the poor magic car beneath them. Pannisy followed not far behind Freya, Vivien sat in front of Pannis, her petite body curled up in his arms, Lina sat behind her with her arms around Pannis's waist, her long silver hair dancing in the air with the wind carried by the high speed.

Summer has passed, and it is the early autumn of the year, and although the sun is still hot, the weather gradually cools down in the evening. Especially in the grasslands, day and night are like two different seasons, which can be difficult for newcomers to the grasslands to adapt.

"It's almost time. Catherine turned back from the front and shouted to Pannis, "It's time to find a place to rest." I just saw traces of someone grazing, there should be a nomadic tribe nearby, so let's rest there tonight. ”

"What did you say?" Pannis also responded with a roar, "The wind is too strong for me to hear." ”

"I said it was time to find a place to spend the night," Catherine shouted in a louder voice, "Look at the sky, if you don't find a place, you'll have to sleep out at night." ”

"I still don't hear you. Pannis continued to yell, "Say it again. ”

"I say......" Catherine just shouted, suddenly stunned and thought of something, and immediately glared at Pannis with a murderous gaze: "You bastard, you are behind us, the wind blows to you, and the sound is floating to you, what the hell, it would be strange if you couldn't hear clearly." You remember for me, and when I get off the bus, I will have you good-looking. ”

"Sister, beat him. Lina, who loves to be boisterous, poked her head out from behind Pannis, and shouted with a smile: "When he said he couldn't hear clearly, he couldn't help but laugh until his stomach trembled. This person is so hateful, it will be uncomfortable if you don't chase him with a sword for a few days, you must educate him well. ”

"Yes, beat him. Vivien, who let go of her mood, curled up comfortably in Pennis's arms, and secretly released a windproof barrier in front of her face, and she was very bad enough not to prepare one for Pennis. At this time, when he heard the dispute, he immediately waved his small fist and shouted loudly: "He definitely did it on purpose, I can hear it clearly if there is a windproof barrier in front of me, not to mention that there is no one on his side." ”

"You secretly used the enchantment to ignore me. Pannis shouted dissatisfiedly: "What about the family, the love for each other, how can you be so cruel to me." ”

"It's for your own good, kid. Vivien was in a good mood and exclaimed with a sad look, "Only through the tempering of the wind and the rain can you really grow up." Alas, you don't understand me, and I'm actually very heartbroken. ”

"You're such a nice guy. Pannis rolled his eyes and shouted, "But you're talking about rock eagles, not humans." Humans will only get sick after being tempered by strong winds and rainstorms, and I don't think you'll be able to make a mistake. ”

"You stupid people. Catherine roared angrily in the magic car in front of her: "Have you had enough, if you play again, you will all stand on the grassland for me tonight to blow the cold wind." ”

"Ah, the eldest sister is angry. Lina and Vivien laughed, one retracted her head behind Pannis, the other retracted into Pannis's arms, pretending that nothing had happened, and Vivien did not forget to complain loudly: "It's all your fault, Pannis, you see that you have made the eldest sister angry again." ”

"Hey. Pannis's eyes widened, "Is it really appropriate for you to say that?

"Don't make a fuss. Freya suddenly shouted, "I already feel the warmth of the campfire, I can already smell the aroma of food, it must be ......"

"When you see the tribe, you say, you idiot. Unable to wield her staff, Vivien could only flick her fist regretfully. (To be continued.) )
