Chapter 37: Rumors
“.... Then let's separate them here?" Ao Xingfeng said with some embarrassment, as a 25-year-old person psychophysiologically, although the little beauty has a crush on herself and will steal fun, but after all, she is not even 18 years old, so she will not give birth to any ghost animal thoughts.

"Hmm.." Tia said reluctantly, and then the convoy continued along the trail, while Ao Xingfeng and his party walked from the place where they had just been ambushed in the woods.
Arriving at the place where the Templars had been ambushed, the corpses of the heretics were filled with a large amount of blood, attracting the wolves, tigers and leopards in the forest, and the beasts saw someone coming, bared their teeth and roared low, warning the humans not to continue to approach.
"Where are we going next, Lord Holy Envoy?" asked Ao Xingfeng on a horse with one of the Templars, who asked.
"Let's go to Iroma, I'm curious about the multi-racial country. Ao Xingfeng said, and the Templar captain responded, and the knight squad rounded the trail and headed in the direction of the city of Mela, on the edge of the southern province of Maleni.
The Templar captain had a map in his hand, looking at the direction of the sun to identify their location, and it took about half a day for the team to reach the woods on the outskirts of Mela City without encountering any danger along the way.
After the previous sweep by the Templars, the number of undead in the southern provinces of Maleni was pressed to the bottom line, leaving only the burned city of Mera and the corpses of the undead in one place.
The Templars were working in an orderly manner to set up the camp, and Ao Xingfeng and Diamas had nothing to do, so they sat by the fire and chatted.
"Diamas, have you ever been to Iroma?" asked Ao Xingfeng.
"I've been to Pompeii once, where it's really a hodgepodge, there are all races, elves, orcs, half-orcs, dwarves, giants, etc., and some races that I have never heard of, interesting but interesting, but the law and order are more chaotic. Diamas said.
"Oh, what's the anecdote?" asked Ao Xingfeng curiously.
"I once bragged to a few mercenaries in the tavern, and a lizardman came in outside the door, and a guy from the mercenary group beat the lizardman without saying anything, and then the lizardman left the tavern without saying anything, and after a while I was almost drunk, and I guessed that I went back to the hotel, and guess what? There was a large group of lizardmen outside the tavern, and without saying a word, all the people present in the mercenary group were beaten half to death, and none of the passing guards dared to step forward to stop them. Diamas recalled the situation and said eloquently.
"What about later? The mercenary group won't stop there, right?" asked Ao Xingfeng, rubbing his hands around the fire.
"Indeed, this was originally the mercenary group, the leader of the mercenary group later brought people to the scene, the lizardman had already left, he didn't listen to the persuasion of the people around him, he had to go to the lizardman's camp to find the field, called a few mercenary groups to follow and pull the wounded over together, how could I not see this good show? There are many guys who have the same idea as me followed. Diamas swallowed as he spoke, then continued.
"The lizardman's camp is not too big, everyone added up to probably less than 50, almost 300 people here, the group of lizardmen is really brainless, the situation is completely at a disadvantage and refuses to bow down, the two sides fight, good guys, the group of lizardmen are all good hands, relying on a wooden stick can be tied with 5 mercenaries, it didn't take long for the mercenaries to fight the commanders on the mercenaries' side, and they rushed up to knock over a large number of lizardmen. ”
"Just when everyone thought that the situation was settled, passing by a lizardman in a cloak without saying a word, he pulled out a big knife and rushed up to do it, the big knife danced so that a wind and water were up, none of the three mercenary group leaders were his enemies, and he cleanly dealt with the remaining mercenaries and warned them not to oppress the lizardmen, and turned away without accepting the lizardmen's thanks, it was really cool!" said Diamas wistfully.
"Then what do you think of my strength?
Diamas glanced at Ao Xingfeng with strange eyes and said, "Even the chief knight of the Templars is not your opponent, what do you say? ”
"So hanging?" Ao Xingfeng said with some surprise.
"Otherwise, why do you think the Holy See can fight all the dark forces on its own?" said Diamas.
"Okay, okay, I don't know what happened to Tia and them, if we haven't met heretics since we separated. Ao Xingfeng said worriedly.
"Since the heretics are coming for you, then Tia and them should not be in danger, even if they encounter a small number of undead, they will have enough strength to deal with it. Diamas said as he lay on the ground and looked at the stars.
The Templars set up their tents, and the bells around them returned to the campfire and sat down, and Captain Oton said, "Your Excellency, you don't seem to know much about your level of strength, do you need me to help you get some questions?"
"Hmm? Ao Xingfeng looked at Orton and asked.
"We compare the strength level to a pyramid, there are 12 layers, starting from the ordinary people at the lowest end of the pyramid, and the others are soldiers, soldiers, elephants, horses, artillery, chariots, generals, handsome, kings, emperors, and demigods. The average strength of the Templar knights is around the car level, with a few exceptions, such as our knight commander, Lord Arthur, whose strength is between the rank of handsome and the rank of king. It's better than the Great Knight!" the Templar said proudly.
Ao Xingfeng always felt that where had he heard these terms? By the way, except for ordinary people and people above the monarch level, weren't the others the chess pieces in Chinese chess? Such a magical continent actually used Chinese-style chess as a division of strength? What is the situation? Could it be that there were also seniors who had traveled here before him?
"These terms are a bit weird, what's going on?" asked Ao Xingfeng, pretending not to know.
"Actually, this division of strength was not created by the Irene Continent, but came from the distant Dongzhou Continent, where the people seem to have clearly demarcated the boundaries of strength a long time ago, there seems to be a special tool over there that can detect people's real strength, there was a Templar knight chief who used that kind of instrument, and the strength was divided into the car class, and since then, the people of the Irene Continent have also begun to use the calculation method of the Dongzhou Continent to divide the boundaries of human strength. Orton said in an orderly manner.
"Has anyone been to the Dongzhou Continent personally?" Ao Xingfeng said with great interest, and in the dark he always felt that there seemed to be something related to him in the Dongzhou Continent.
Orton shook his head and said gloomily: "For thousands of years, countless explorers have tried to cross the Sky Sea and the Abyssal Sea to the legendary Dongzhou Continent, but all of them have failed, and the only one that can connect with Dongzhou is the Broken Islands, and they can only rely on Dongzhou's unilateral connection. All the items that Dongzhou had left for Irene were sold for an astonishing price at the auction house, even if it was two bland little sticks. ”
Ao Xingfeng thought of chopsticks, could it be that the Dongzhou Continent really had any connection with the China of the earth? Ao Xingfeng's heart was like being scratched by a kitten, and he really wanted to go to the Dongzhou Continent immediately to take a look.
"If there are any other legends about Dongzhou, you can tell them all. Diamas, who was lying on the ground, also pricked up his ears and waited for Orton to speak.
"According to the people of the Dongzhou Continent who drifted to the Broken Islands, there are only two races in the Dongzhou Continent, one is the human race and the other is the demon race, and the two sides have been fighting for thousands of years. I heard that the strong people there are very terrifying, and almost all of them have the ability to break mountains and split mountains. It's really hard to imagine what a terrible scene that kind of battle between strong men will produce. Orton imagined the sky falling apart and couldn't help but be a little afraid.
"But the most unbelievable thing is that there are no gods on their side, only an existence called immortals, and it seems that human beings can rely on their own cultivation to reach that realm, which is really blasphemous, a mortal actually wants to be on par with the gods. Orton smacked his tongue and said.
"Aren't there humans here who have become gods because of their godheads?" Ao Xingfeng asked with some confusion.
"Those thieves who have just stolen the knowledge of the true God, the product left behind after death, that kind of thing is called Godhead, what a nondescript thing!" Orton said with some annoyance.
"Okay, are there any other rumors about Dongzhou?" Ao Xingfeng asked.
"There is also a very outrageous one, it is said that two thousand years ago, the Broken Islands were originally a continent called Nain, and for unknown reasons, they provoked the immortal-level powerhouses of the Dongzhou Continent, and they were smashed into pieces by the strong man's understatement, and they became the current Broken Islands. It's really ridiculous, how could the mainland be smashed by someone? And it's still such an understatement? It's just a rumor. Orton said with a smile.
Ao Xingfeng frowned, remembering the immortal cultivation novels he had read on the earth before, the powerhouses in them were more terrifying than the other, what kind of broken mountain splitting mountain is just a sneeze, okay? If the Dongzhou Continent is really like those immortal cultivation novels, Ao Xingfeng has to hurry up to improve his strength, if he encounters an unreasonable powerhouse in Dongzhou in the future, then he really doesn't know how to die. For a while, Ao Xingfeng, who was a little happy because of his strength, pressed a boulder in his heart, and I am afraid that it is still a long way to go to reach that realm.
