"It's been quiet tonight."

"Hmm."

"Strangely calm, could it be a bad sign? ……”

"Hey! Don't say such unlucky words! ”

In front of the sentinel monitoring the Misty Forest, two soldiers who had just finished their evening shifts were yawning and gossiping.

The Misty Forest was supposed to be a forest shrouded in fog all year round and constantly breeding demonic beasts, but just a few days ago, the fog suddenly dissipated, as if the carnival that had lasted for 50 years was over, and the forest had never been so calm.

In the lives of all Altalya nationals, the Misty Forest should be shrouded in thick fog, and the Misty Forest without it is like the sun rising in the west, which makes people have to worry.

It was not only the mutation of the Misty Forest that was annoying, but also the terrifying projection of the void, the deafening sound, and the terrifying sight that made all the people of Altalia still feel uneasy.

These days, God's talk that day is still the hottest topic of conversation in the tavern, and whenever someone gets up, everyone joins in to discuss things about God.

The undercurrent of the upper echelons of the kingdom surging around the "God" speech has also become a hot topic.

The wrath of the king, the sudden death of the cardinal, the official appointment of the chief knight Lilith, and the running of the merchant guild these days...... The entire upper echelons of the country, which were originally calm, have undergone earth-shattering changes around what happened that day.

These changes have undoubtedly had far-reaching implications, touching every aspect of the country, but they are rarely felt in this remote outpost guarding the Misty Forest.

In the dark forest, with the faint morning light, it penetrated through the gaps in the leaves, shining two blurred shadows.

"When Chang - When Chang - "

What seemed to be the sound of a tree tapping on a tree trunk was approaching the edge of the Misty Forest.

"Hey!"

One of the soldiers on the watchtower suddenly pushed the arm of his companion next to him and stretched out his hand to point deeper into the forest.

"There's someone there!"

In the misty forest, countless demonic beasts cannot enter at all, and even if the mist dissipates, no one dares to test the forest's ability to devour humans.

In such a place, and at this time just after midnight, there could be no human presence in the forest.

There shouldn't have been anyone in the first place.

"When Chang - When Chang - "

The sound of something striking the trunk of the tree was undoubtedly getting closer and tighter, and the two sentinels clenched their fists.

Their job is to monitor the forest for any changes, to notify the adventurers wandering around as soon as they spot a monster appearing, and to notify the knights when they spot a large-scale beast tide.

However, there is no indication in the work instructions on what to do if a human is found.

"When Chang - When Chang - "

From the forest, two black figures emerged.

"Dangchang!"

The last knock resounded throughout the forest, leaving a distant reverberation.

"It seems to have arrived." A deep, thick male voice rang out.

"Supreme Lord, we have already stood on the land of the Kingdom of Altalia." Another, rather weak-sounding voice rang out.

The sun bloomed over the horizon, the last of the morning mist lifted, and two figures appeared on the edge of the kingdom of Altalia.

A tall and incomparably tall man, like a giant, and the people around him are incomparably smaller, only reaching his legs, forming a strong contrast.

Standing here are none other than the Dominator's clone Dongfang Mu, and his partner, Nia, the Scourge Messenger.

"Human, or monster!"

"It's a monster! Even if it is a human being, a human who can come out of the fog must be a monster! ”

"Monsters!!"

The two sentries standing on the watchtower panicked.

……

Under the watchtower, two sentries are being taught a lesson by the garrison's sergeant major, Patch.

"When I saw two humans, I called all the elites of the Knights, do you know how a team of silver-level knights came here and found that there were only two opponents?!"

Patch was dark and thin, and although he spoke fiercely at this time, he could hear that he was not blindly reprimanding, and there was still love for the soldier in his voice.

And the two humans who came out of the misty forest hurriedly used the countermeasures corresponding to the beast tide, and they were bowing their heads to listen to the training at this time, and they couldn't think of refutating at all.

Now, both of them feel like they're making too much of a fuss, in other words, there's nothing wrong with being cowardly.

Just because of the hectic situation of the two just now, there was a team of 5 silver knights, these guys are all veterans of a hundred battles, any one of them can take charge of themselves, and their actions are equivalent to making their own garrison team lose face in front of their superiors.

"So," Patch turned his face to the two travelers who had emerged from the Misty Forest, "who are you?" ”

Dongfang Mu patted his chest and said, "My name is Dongfang Mu, this is called Nia, and she is my partner." We are adventurers, coming here from the east side of the Misty Forest, through the Misty Forest. ”

His words were the same as they were against the Silver Knights, but they still aroused the suspicion of the garrison.

"Adventurers?"

"Through the Misty Forest?"

These soldiers had an expression of "whether this guy understands what he is talking about" on their faces, and they didn't believe Dongfang Mu's words at all.

Dongfang Mu nodded and said: "The ancestors of my family are all adventurer families planted by Lord God on the eastern edge of the Misty Forest to guard the periphery of Altalia, because of the notice of Lord God a few days ago, I came to Altalia to help in the battle according to the clan motto handed down from my ancestors." ”

"Guarding the perimeter of Altalia? What do you need to protect on the outskirts of Altalia? ”

"Hey, you're not saying there are other enemies over there in the Misty Forest, are you?"

"Hahahaha...... This guy is so hilarious! ”

"That's it, we're all soldiers who have been guarding Artalia here for a long time, don't you say, the demonic beasts we defeated are just fish that escaped from your family!"

Dongfang Mu calmly glanced at the laughter of the people around him, and pretended to touch his head: "Oops, it seems to be questioned." ”

Nia whispered beside him, "My lord, if you want to know greatness, you must have at least 1% greatness, and if you want to look directly at the sun, you have to risk being burned, Supreme Lord, you don't have to worry about the thoughts of bugs. ”

Dongfang Mu waved his hand to Nia, indicating that he didn't care.

His words caused a burst of laughter from all the soldiers present, and it was clear that everyone did not believe it.

In everyone's worldview, the east of the Misty Forest is the end of the world, just as the other side of the ocean is the end of the world, and the Kingdom of Altalia is the only human civilization that exists in this world.

And this man of unknown origin and heavily wrapped in heavy armor actually said that he came through the misty forest, and also said that their clan guarded Altaria, which obviously shocked everyone's worldview, and naturally attracted ridicule.

However, in the midst of this group of ridicule, there are also people who fall into thinking and become worried.

Patch is just that.

"You said you came from the end of the misty forest, the end of the forest, what is it?" Patch asked.

"At the end of the forest, is the world." Dongfang Mu said slowly.

Seeing everyone's blank faces, Dongfang Mu explained: "The land area of the Kingdom of Altalia, in the entire world, probably only accounts for less than one thousandth. ”

"Whit......" Patch's pupils dilated suddenly.
