Chapter 919: Forgotten Valley
Explosive ten more: Congratulations to the book friend "Thousands of Miles in the Void" for being on the fan honor list, of course, I would like to thank other book friends for their support to me, thank you.
Ryan strode down the trail, the tall trees around him turning into low bushes along the way, and when Ryan stepped on the soft, flat grass, he was officially on the Forgotten Valley. Although the area where Ryan is located at this moment is only the outskirts of the Forgotten Valley, it is already a taboo place for those mercenary groups that cannot be approached, unless they come to hunt deliberately, they must avoid as far as they can, so as not to be swallowed by the roaming legendary demonic beasts as food.
The wild run for several days finally ended, but without waiting for Ryan and them to take a break, a group of three-eyed jumpers ran over the grass in the distance, this is a herbivorous monster, their hind legs are thick and powerful, and they tend to take off and jump more than ten meters away after running with force, which looks like they are jumping and jumping, and at the same time, in order to avoid hunting their own carnivorous monsters, this antelope has a total of three eyes on its head, in addition to the two on the front, there is also a natural enemy behind the head that can be observed at any time to try to sneak attack, which is also the origin of its name。
Now this group of about fifty or so three-eyed bungeals are running towards Ryan along a completely irregular trajectory, it seems that they are avoiding something, these three-eyed bouncers are quite fast, and they are still out of the field of vision of Ryan and others before about a few breaths, and after a short period of ten seconds, they actually ran over a distance of several kilometers and came to a place of more than 100 meters near Ryan. When these three-eyed jumpers saw that there were also many fierce legendary demonic beasts on Ryan's side, they immediately drew a big arc and greatly changed the direction they were fleeing.
Chasing after these antelopes is a lightning cheetah with a slender body jumping up and down with a small arc of electricity, this kind of monster is born with wind attributes, so the speed of running is comparable to the fleeting lightning in the sky, under the gaze of Ryan, this lightning cheetah actually dragged a long afterimage behind him, and took advantage of the opportunity for the Sultan to slow down slightly when the front of the bouncer turned, and then pounced on the young three-eyed jumper running at the end to the ground.
Of course, the three-eyed bouquet that became the prey was not willing to accept its fate, and it desperately struggled to get rid of the lightning cheetah, and the lightning cheetah just opened its mouth and bit the back of the neck of the three-eyed bounc, no matter how it struggled, it would not let go. Seeing that the natural enemies behind them had already captured their own kind, the three-eyed jumpers did not have any such thoughts, but accelerated their speed and continued to run, and soon disappeared into the distance of the valley.
Such a scene can be seen in many places, it can be said that this kind of situation of the weak and the strong is not surprising, but now what is happening in front of Ryan and them is all legendary-level magical beasts, the group of more than fifty three-eyed jumpers is the legendary level, and the lightning cheetahs chasing and preying behind him are also at the legendary level, and the resurrected legendary demonic beast corpses that Ryan carries behind him are definitely terrifying in other areas, but when it comes to the periphery of the Forgotten Valley, there are not as many as a group of legendary-level three-eyed jumpers that are not a threat, so it is no wonder that the Forgotten Valley is a forbidden area for the Lost Peak。
The lightning cheetah that successfully captured the prey bit the three-eyed bungee hard, and the crackling sparks splashed out from the body of the prey, so that the three-eyed bungee quickly lost consciousness, after subduing the prey, the lightning cheetah suddenly found that there was a large group of fierce monsters less than 100 meters away, and it scared a whole body to curl up, at this moment the lightning cheetah was more like a frightened cat, it pressed its upper body down and clinged to the ground, carefully observing the movement on Lane's side.
After about ten seconds, the lightning cheetah found that something was wrong, usually it would definitely be aware of the powerful monsters around it very early, and would not cross the border to hunt if it said anything, and the other legendary monsters would attack as soon as they found out that the lightning cheetah had violated the territory to maintain its majesty. As a result, now the dozens of demonic beasts whose strength is no worse than that of the lightning cheetah are actually standing in place so stupidly, ignoring everything that is happening here. Of course, the lightning cheetah didn't know that the monsters it saw had long since turned into corpses, it stretched out its claws and tentatively patted the unconscious three-eyed jumper on the ground, and after finding that the monsters on Lane's side were still ignoring it, the lightning cheetah immediately picked up its prey without hesitation and ran away as fast as it could.
After witnessing the lightning cheetah with a string of afterimages, Ryan and the others embarked on a journey again, when the temperature in the air dropped to the lowest point of the day, they had already set up camp next to a lake in the Forgotten Valley, and when a few dark elf maids quickly lit a bonfire to keep warm, a large group of three-eyed bungeals quietly appeared on the other side of the lake that was at least several kilometers wide, and this group of at least a thousand legendary three-eyed bunchs walked to the lake in turn to drink water in order, and put them far away in the other three directions"Sentinel", if there are any more magical beasts such as lightning cheetahs running to hunt for food, they should be able to give early warning and let the vast majority of their companions in the entire colony escape.
Because he didn't have dim vision, Ryan couldn't see things from a distance of several kilometers, but he unleashed his spiritual power and used the "Magic Vision" spell to detect his surroundings instead, which did so more clearly than the dark elf maidens who had a racial talent. When he looked at the thousands of legendary-level three-eyed jumpers drinking water, a question also surged in Ryan's heart, why there were so many legendary creatures in this place, so that even this kind of jumper, which was almost no threat, had actually reached the legendary level.
Ryan asked the Heristel mistress sitting next to him for advice on this question, and the latter smiled and said the answer: "Actually, the reason is very simple, it is nothing more than the law of the other world. A long time ago, the strength of the demonic beasts here was naturally similar to that of other regions, but for some reason, the strength of some of the demonic beasts here suddenly increased a lot, so the entire biological environment was changed accordingly. The first thing these three-eyed jumpers do when they wake up every day is to run faster than the lightning cheetahs, otherwise they will become food and lose their lives. It's the same with the lightning cheetah, if it can't catch up with the three-eyed bounc, which is faster than yesterday, it will starve until it dies. As a result, the strength of these magical beasts increased day by day, and finally there was a situation where such legendary creatures were everywhere now. ”
After listening to the words of the Heristian mother, Lane's heart moved slightly, as if he thought of something, but for a moment he couldn't think clearly of this fleeting inspiration, and while he was thinking hard, the words of the Herister housemother came to his ears again: " Speaking of a race to be strong, it is far from enough to rely on racial talent or the birth of a few geniuses in the race, you must have natural enemies, and there must be a sense of crisis that always hangs over the head of the entire race, so that the whole race will run forward without stopping, and never dare to slack off, because if you stop, you will become the prey of others like today's three-eyed jumper. ”
Herest's words cleaved through Ryan's mind like lightning, and the content that Ryan had been thinking about before suddenly became clear, if human beings also have such a natural enemy, of course, the strength of the natural enemy must be just right, it can't be too strong to destroy human beings directly, and it can't be too weak and quickly lose its usefulness, so how can human beings dare to do what they did before?
How long did the Holy Alliance Empire be founded, and the second majesty of the empire actually began to suppress the magicians who helped the human race defeat the undead legion, which not only greatly reduced the split power of the entire Magician Guild between the north and the south, but even made the split imperial capital and the Mochizuki City Magic Academy hostile to each other, so that after the vicissitudes of the years of magic, the magic strength has fallen to the point where the birth of a legendary mage is celebrated by the whole country, which is really sad.
Why did Fernando II dare to act like this, it was not because of the lack of threatening natural enemies: orcs escaped, the undead were retired, elven dwarves lived in seclusion, and the entire Eslar continent was determined after the war, and as a result, the magical power that could develop by leaps and bounds fell again under the squeeze and rejection of the rulers and the priests of light and holy knights, without the hard support of the staff of the guardian of the earth, there was no Victor ** division suddenly emerged, but I was afraid of the former Meren** The feat of single-handedly banishing the demigod Lich Cons plane projection will no longer exist, let alone the situation of multiple realm powerhouses.
"It's no wonder that the kings of the other world want to provoke a thousand-year war, in fact, this is also a very important law, it seems that human beings must continue to participate. However, now that the number of human beings is too small, it seems that it is necessary to encourage fertility internally and increase the number of allies externally to increase the momentum of human power. Also, to create enough room for adventure, I think it is possible to turn the Hengduan Mountains in my hometown, the frozen plateaus in the north, and the cursed swamps of Cassano into battlefields for adventurers to increase their strength, just like the roads we traveled back then. Ryan said silently to himself in the bottom of his heart.
Thinking of this, Ryan looked up at the extremely gray sky above his head, and continued to say in his heart: "The human world is still too narrow, we must let them go out to broaden their horizons, I think it is better to increase the number of portals to other worlds as soon as possible, so that the strongest among the human beings can have more adventures and battles in the underwater world, the netherworld and even the other world...... In short, I can't shelter the clansmen too much in the future, the original ** master Meren made such a mistake, although I thought about this clearly before, but I always can't help but follow his old path, otherwise even if I kill a few demigod kings in the other world, the human compatriots in my hometown still only care about what to eat for dinner today, and the other world is too far away for these ordinary people. ”
