The atmosphere in the city lord's mansion was a little depressing, and the appearance of ghouls cast a dark cloud over the border pass.

"Today's events must be vigilant, the origin of the ghouls must be thoroughly ascertained, from today onwards, the manpower of the customs inspection will be doubled, the scope of the inspection will be expanded, and the relevant equipment will be fully equipped before entering the abyss to investigate clearly. ”

The city lord gave the order, and the enemy had already arrived at the door without knowing it, which made them feel scared for a while.

"Those minions are not difficult to solve, the key is the ghouls, how many of them are there, and how strong are they?"

"And the most important question is, what can be done to restrain them?"

Yun Yi and the others left the City Lord's Mansion, but the discussion in the City Lord's Mansion did not stop.

There are more than 20 fortresses along the Great Wall, the largest of which is the ancient city of death. The ancient city is located on the northern border, and the living environment is extremely harsh. Far from luxury, it has its own flair.

Everyone here can go into battle to kill the enemy, and the days of licking blood from the knife edge are even more commonplace.

The ghoul thing is only the first time, and the skeletons and dried corpses are the main theme here. Their origins cannot be traced back and are said to have existed longer than the Great Wall of Frontier Passes.

After the baptism of the long river, the ancient city has accumulated a rich heritage, which is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

As he integrated into this place and gradually deepened his understanding of it, Yun Yi was more unable to see through this ancient city. Take the swamp thousands of miles away as an example, you can deduce one or two, the ancient city is not a place of leisure.

Five days later, the Pavilion reassigned equipment to everyone, the most different being the sword. After the sword is unsheathed, the light is dazzling, and people dare not look directly.

It is said that the newly configured sword was forged in the Sky Fire, and the Earth Fire Mine was also equipped. Sky Fire and Earth Fire were stored in the past, and even if they were used less than once, they must be equipped at this time.

......

"Are you sure?" asked two people standing in a remote dilapidated house at night, one of whom was slightly hoarse.

"Not yet, but it shouldn't be wrong. The other replied respectfully, a young man.

"The stakes are so great that if we don't get it, we destroy it. If someone else gets our hands on it, it's hard for us to get ahead. ”

......

The border pass is overcast, it can be said that the mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is full of buildings, and everything is full of fog.

The next day, the Shoutian Pavilion sent additional manpower, and the team that went out of the city to inspect became three teams. One of the teams patrols the area above the abyss, while the other two teams enter the abyss. Because of their experience in fighting ghouls, Lin Heng's team entered the abyss with another team.

It is rare that there is no wind or snow outside the gate, and it is very calm, which makes their mood a little better.

The abyss is a natural protective barrier, but it doesn't seem so safe anymore.

The patrol team finally came to the edge of the abyss, and the wind below was chilling.

"Shall we go down?" asked the member of the other team, a little nervous, for there was no safe place to go.

"Don't worry, we're well prepared, those monsters don't have to be feared. ”

"It's too dangerous to go down from here, this mission can't be completed in a day or two, you have to be prepared to stay here for a long time. Patrol along the abyss first, if you can find a suitable place to go down, it's best to go down, if you can't do it, you can join up with the people in the other fortresses, there are more people, and it is safer. ”

After agreeing on the agreement, the two teams patrolled east along the abyss.

"Yun Yi, why do you think that you want to join the Heaven Guarding Pavilion, isn't it better to seek the path of immortality and be free?" Liu Jia of the same team asked suspiciously, almost every student of Luo Yu Academy knew Yun Yi's past life. With a prominent status like his, the pursuit should be higher.

"I don't deliberately pursue any of them, everything is spontaneous, and it may be more interesting to experience different lives!" Yun Yi replied, looking very casual.

When asked about himself, Liu Jia couldn't help but sigh, and after a short period of distraction, he said: "Because only protecting my family and defending the country is what I should do most." ”

Yun Yi was stunned for a moment, and probably guessed Liu Jia's identity in his previous life, compared to it, his will was far less firm than Liu Jia's.

"There are horses ahead, pay attention to concealment. ”

The team was nervous, the situation at the border was confusing, and the slightest movement could make people nervous.

"It seems to be the centaurs of other fortresses. Lin Heng said in a low voice, but he stared intently ahead, ready to rush and kill at any time.

Sure enough, not long after, a voice came from ahead, and they were spotted.

"It's the brothers of the dead city, and we're from the Bald Fang Fortress. ”

"It's not an enemy, it's the brother of the Bald Fang Fortress, the closest to the ancient city. When the other party approached, everyone confirmed that there was no danger.

When they joined up with the people of Bald Fang Fortress, both sides breathed a sigh of relief, their teams grew stronger, and their confidence was a little stronger.

"Bald Fang Fortress?" Yun Yi couldn't help but think of Xia Xun, the deputy commander of the ancient city who died a few days ago, as if he came from this fortress.

"Captain Lin Heng, I didn't expect you to really come to us, my captain is right. Let me wait like this, please!" The person who spoke obviously knew Lin Heng, but his position was not as high as Lin Heng's, and he was ordered by his captain, so his words seemed very polite.

"I didn't expect to meet Brother Xia here, but I forgot that you have a way to go down to the abyss here, and fortunately you didn't patrol to the west. Lin Heng smiled with a happy expression.

"Brothers, let's keep up!"

Not long after, several rows of tents appeared on the snow in front of them, and in front of the tent stood a large flag, on which a bald tooth pattern fluttered in the wind.

Yun Yi looked into the abyss not far away, the terrain here was different, and it was not steep. There is a path to the bottom of the abyss, and it is gentle.

"It's no wonder that there are so many Sky Pavilion guards stationed here. Presumably there is a sentry down there. "The location here is extremely important, and it is necessary to deploy troops to prevent the monsters from under the abyss.

Yun Yi probably understood the importance of this place after taking a look, in addition to the people of the Bald Fang Fortress itself, there were some people.

It is estimated that there are four or five teams, plus two teams on their own side, it is estimated that there should be sixty or seventy people.

Since the city lord of the deceased ancient city had given the order, naturally no one would dare to slack off, and after a while, people gathered people and horses, preparing to enter the abyss.

Entering the abyss is dangerous, so the Bald Fang Fortress has arranged for a deputy commander to enter with him.

A group of people gradually entered the abyss along the gentle route, during which Yun Yi noticed that there were many places where extremely hidden sentry posts were arranged, and if it weren't for his strong soul thoughts, he really wouldn't have found it.

The accompanying deputy commander often went in and out of the abyss, and was well aware of the situation below, and with his rich experience, the road was safe.

"The road ahead is getting steeper and colder, so you have to be on your guard at all times, and after a little while, you will enter the danger zone. ”

All the way was through the route that was proved to be dangerous, and everyone also felt the unusualness ahead, where the fog was wafting and full of mystery.

The abyss can be several kilometers deep, and it is almost to the bottom along the way, and the surrounding steep cliffs are smooth, and the bottom is occasionally a few strange dry grass and trees, which will crumble at the slightest touch.

"It's so quiet!" Zhang Feng's teeth chattered, and his eyes scanned.

Everyone walked very carefully and did not dare to make too much noise.

"Click!

The sudden sound made people suddenly creepy, as if they were being stared at by something in their backs.

In an unknown place, everyone didn't dare to release the Soul Qi at will, because those monsters were extremely sensitive to the Soul Qi.

The sound grew clearer and clearer, and when the fog was lifted, there were some strange branches swaying in front of me.

When the line of sight was clear, someone almost shouted, but fortunately the person next to him covered his mouth, but his eyes were full of horror.

There are no less than ten strange trees in front of them, and they all look very permeable and hideous. What was even more terrifying was that the branches were covered with decaying skeletons, and the heads of these skeletons were pierced by the horrible branches.

The wind under the abyss blew up the hanging bones, and there was a "click" sound again.

It's one thing to hear, but after seeing it clearly, especially when the ten trees are shaking together, more people can't restrain themselves.

"What are you afraid of! Do you think you're still alive? What is the difference between them?" the lieutenant commander was able to restrain himself, and he let a few people recover with a low shout. I imagined my state, and I didn't feel scared anymore.

Although Yun Yi's heart was also pounding, he was much better than others. He hadn't seen this kind of scene before, and when he recalled what he had seen in the forest outside the Ancient Netherworld Pass when he first arrived at the Nine Nether Netherworld, the fear at that time was countless times greater than now.

"Fortunately, these corpses are different from those monsters, keep going. ”

The deputy commander ordered, judging from his years of exploration experience, this place is not a place of great danger and danger.

After another four or five miles, the front became spacious. When we entered the seventh mile, a smell of blood came, and there was also the sound of fighting.

After crossing a corner in front of me, I finally saw a disgusting scene.

I saw that there was a pool of four or five zhang square not far ahead, it was a blood pool, not only the smell of blood but also a smell, I was afraid to look at it, I was disgusted when I smelled it, and the strange thing was that the blood pool had not yet coagulated.

"It's those monsters!"

Some of the walking dead at the pool of blood were swallowing the blood, and even arguing with each other about it, as if they were really wise.

However, the blood that had been swallowed flowed out of their leaky bodies and spread to the ground.

"Wow!"

Finally, someone couldn't bear it anymore and spit it out, and the soul qi of the whole body poured out of his mouth.

Yun Yi secretly said that it was not good, and sure enough, the movement here alarmed those walking corpses, and following the breath of the soul qi, they quickly approached here.

"Rubbish!" the deputy commander couldn't help but be angry when he saw that the person who poured out his soul qi was actually from the Bald Fang Fortress, and cursed in his heart.

"Everybody get ready to fight and kill these disgusting. ”

He looked back at the man and said viciously, "If you have the life to go back, see how I clean you up." ”

The lieutenant commander was the first to rush over, and then a great battle broke out. Don't look at those walking corpses who are not very powerful, but the movement here makes them more and more numerous.

Yun Yi rushed to the left and suddenly, and the black knife in his hand attacked quickly, as if he had entered a no-man's land.

Suddenly, there was a chirping sound in the sky, and a dozen eagle-like birds appeared. They circled, then swooped down, claws grabbing the skeletons and tearing them apart, shards of bone flying above them.

"It's the people of the Eagle's Beak Cliff Fortress, they can connect the soul qi and the soul beast, gain insight into the opportunity, and detect the enemy's situation, they should have discovered us. It's so good to come, to hell with these!"

The sudden help made everyone tremble, even if there were more and more enemies, they had their own invincible fighting intent to kill them.
