The weather was fine on the day of departure, so good that I bought a special sunhat for Birgit. Of course, it's still good for people like Sam to be sunburned, sterilized, disinfected, and anti-rotten.

Everyone was in a good mood along the way, and although the expressions on their faces made Anak a little confused, I told him not to care, the faces of these guys were all stiff.

In fact, I also had a little doubt about this guy, that is, whether he could fulfill his promise to take me to his chief, at least the respected man in his mouth. And I'm not worried about whether he's going to do anything bad or not.

This thing as a whole is definitely a good thing for me, it's a good thing to find Thunder Cliff in the first place, it's better if they can accept me in the Terror Totem, if both sides accept me, I mean the Rune Totem and the Terror Totem both clans accept me, it will be even better.

I've made some preparations in my mind, including in case it doesn't work. So when everything is in my mind, I don't worry, I don't get irritable, just follow my assumptions, and then leave the rest to Providence!

I was initially attracted to the view of the Barrens, an endless savannah that was very dry compared to the Arathi Highlands, but dry for a group of dead people. And there is actually not much room for their appearance to decline.

Everyone was curious about the animals of this land, and the huge thunder lizard seemed to be the biggest thing I had ever seen on land, whether it was an orc wolf or a wild elephant, it was completely inadequate in front of this thing, this thing was like a moving mountain.

Anak says don't provoke such things, although they don't usually attack them, but once this thing decides that you are an enemy, that kind of berserk will be the biggest and final mistake you can feel in your life. In particular, they emit lightning like electric eels, and he said that he had seen what it was like to be carred by the instantaneous electricity anyway.

The other is a snake that flies in the sky, which they call the wind snake. When we saw the kite-like creatures flying in the sky, Anak said that it was also the overlord of the land, and it was also an existence that should never be provoked, those things could release electricity, their claws and teeth were poisonous, and this silent creature flying in the sky was the enemy of all creatures except the thunder lizard.

Everything else is something that everyone understands normal, such as a lion, a gazelle, a zebra, and a big-headed, hard-beaked, degraded but extremely good running chocobo. He said that in their territory the animal is relatively gentle, and they also hunt them, and the meat of this bird is very strong, but it is also more resistant to hunger. Their meat is the most delicious among the prairie creatures, and the meat of lions is the most unpalatable.

Lion meat is very fishy.

The night sky here reminds me of what it means to be free, and it feels like I'm in love, or suddenly I'm really in love.

Bilgit didn't really say much, and after I took her hand and she didn't resist, she smiled more, sometimes laughing out loud, but she didn't talk much. I don't ask her why she doesn't speak, because I know she will naturally say it when she wants to.

And everyone also knows that I have a different relationship with this girl, although Sam will roll his eyes at the two of us, but that's all, that's all he can do. Anak is a minotaur, he can't see who is good-looking and who is not good-looking, just like we look at their cows, of course, the unsightly ones are long crooked melons and cracked dates, which can naturally be seen, but I really think it's still hard to tell the good-looking and pleasing cows.

And he said that in his eyes, the girl Bilgit was the only one who had no damage on her face and was of normal color, not green, not yellow, not purple or black, and looked quite normal. And after a few days of traveling, he finally discovered the secret of us, we rarely ate and drank very little, and the supplies in the team were basically Anak's food, and he once asked me more than once why I couldn't see us go to the toilet.

I don't know how to answer him better. So I can only say that the heat here evaporates quickly, and it all evaporates through sweat.

After seeing the orc camp, he seemed to be much more free and easy than in Ratchet City, and there are still some people here who know him, but I don't feel that people who know him don't respect him very much, but having such a person really saves us a lot of trouble, although some older orcs will be emotional when they see us, but the orcs still didn't do anything under his comfort.

There were even garrisons in this huge camp, which were not very numerous, but they were more than enough for daily patrols and skirmishes. In addition, there was not much cultivated land around the camp, and it seemed that their main source of food was still hunting.

This camp is called Crossroads, and I feel so familiar with the name, I should have heard it before, and there is such a place in my vague memory, but I ...... I really forgot or was a little confused.

Because it is really not very popular here, so we stayed there for half a day and then left in a hurry, Birgit asked me if I was slaughtered, I smiled and said it doesn't matter, the poor family is rich!

The road to the south is much smoother, and it really responds to that sentence, the road opened with gold is really much easier to walk, and this road is called the golden road.

But he couldn't tell why it was called the Golden Road. Does this lead to a place full of wealth, or is there a lot of gold at the end of this road? According to him, he had also wondered if there were any mineral deposits or treasures around the road, but according to his own investigation, he found that there was nothing related to gold on the road other than the golden yellow soil.

Along the golden road all the way south, and when we came to another camp, he told me that we would soon be in their territory.

This can't be called a camp in the strict sense, although the architectural style here is really no different from the camp, but the people here look very strong, and the people here seem to be the same as the people at the crossroads. The name of this place is Taurazu, and the word Taurazu means front line in the Minotaur language.

Half a day's walk west from here will be his hometown, and the Minotaurs stationed here are known as the Taurazu warriors, who are the first line of defense to protect their homeland.

In fact, after arriving at the Taurazu side, you can clearly find that the color of the land here is much darker, the color of the land is not as dazzling as the north, showing a darker brownish yellow, of course, the trees here are obviously more lush than the north, and there are more animals wandering than in the north.

They say it's the front line, but I see that many of the garrisons here have the same coat color as Anak, and those guys are much better to Anak than they are at the crossroads, but that's all, their attitude towards us can't be said to be unfriendly, anyway, they just ignore it, and their eyes are full of contempt and disdain.

He said that many of them were brothers from their tribe, and then I felt that it was the front line, but I felt more like the unlucky ones who had been sent out to fight on the border. Naturally, Arnack didn't admit it, and I felt that his refusal to admit it was probably just about his own face.

Despite this, my companions watched me along the way, and Sam once again expressed his doubts to me and asked me if this guy was good. We've all come here, and if you can't do it, you have to keep going.

And when we saw a very high wall, Anak told me that it was finally there, and I couldn't help pouting when I faced the wall of wood and earth and stone that was built against the hill as far as the eye could see, and it reminded me of the Stormgard and the Gilnethsians.

I do not deny that such walls do have a defensive effect, but in my experience it is only a matter of time before they are breached or crossed. But those who are hiding inside may be complacent because they have such a wall.

After walking into this Great Wall, I officially entered the hometown of the Minotaur, and the scenery gradually unfolding in front of me once again made me feel a little trance, and the feeling of déjà vu became stronger and stronger. I told Bilgit that I must have been here.

She was curious to ask me why I said that, and I told her that I had an impression or a memory in my mind and that I was sure I had been to this place. She smiled and told me that when she was younger, she used to have some dreams that would happen in the dream, and then somehow she would remember some scenes in them, and then one day in the future, when she was doing something or experiencing a certain scene, she would suddenly feel that she was familiar with the scene, as if she had experienced it all over again.

I said that what you said was different from what I felt in my dream, and I was sure that it wasn't a dream, that I had actually been to this place. Birgit smiled and said, "Were you a minotaur in your previous life?"

I laughed too, but I told her that even if I was a minotaur in my life, I wasn't the kind of grass eater.

She told me that this was the case, maybe it was a dream, but it was destined that you would definitely come to this place.

I told her that the girl in the dream was supposed to be her.

She asked me, wasn't that girl a cow? I said that if I was indeed a cow in my previous life, then she who ran with me in this field was also a cow. She doesn't be coquettish, but she does have a shy expression and she looks good when she smiles.

In fact, her explanation made me feel very comfortable, not only destined to come to this place, but also destined to meet her. Honestly, this is the only time I've been able to feel happy and happy in a long time. Not to mention that after becoming a dead person, even when I was alive for such a long time, I forgot what love was, what happiness was, what happiness was, and what was heartbeat.

And now that I'm dead, I still have this feeling that only a living person has, and I'm very satisfied.

When you are happy, everything in front of you becomes beautiful, not to mention that the scenery here is so beautiful that everyone says that it is indeed a good place.

It's called Mogaolei, which means low-lying grassland in the Minotaur language, and it is indeed a huge basin, and the terrain will gradually decrease, and the further you go, the milder the climate, the more humid the air, and even the grass on the ground will gradually change from golden to tender green and then gradually spread to more verdant green, and the fragrance of the earth and grass reminds me of those joyful pictures of being able to play in the grass.

And when she stood far away on the hillside, under the blue sky and white clouds, on the grassy hills, in front of the mountains, the wind blew her skirt, and she gently pressed the hat that shaded the sun to prevent the wind from blowing away. Later, even if you don't have to close your eyes, you can still remember that scene at that time, and although I thought that it would be nice to have a camera machine like a dwarf, this kind of beauty engraved in my heart may be more precious than a photograph.

Our carriage walked on the green grassland, as we descended from high to low, and the infinite scenery in front of us was always unfolding before our eyes, until the terrain became generally flat, and Anak pointed to a sign on the side of the road and told me that this was the road to Thunder Bluff.

Around the road, you will see some large and small villages, the Minotaur does not build houses, their homes are all the kind of big tents, although simple but their decoration is not at all, and it is only after contact with them that I gradually feel the reason why the Minotaur are bullied.

This land really feels more gentle than the Arathi Heights, and how can a bloodthirsty and belligerent killing race grow in this gentle land? Even if there were warlike people, there would certainly not be too many of them in such a place.

Anyway, I feel very comfortable here, the warm wind and warm air, even the sun overhead at noon will not dry out people's skin. Minotaurs also plough and cultivate, in addition to which there are also cattle and hunters.

In the eyes of ordinary people, it is understandable to herd cattle, sheep and ducks, but this group of minotaurs is herding Kodo beasts.

Kodomon is a unique creature of the land, never seen in the east, it looks dull, and the large Kodomon is about the size of a dwarf man-made tank. Despite their size, these creatures roam the savannah in groups and leisurely, or lie on their stomachs and graze quietly on the grass. Anak told me that these things don't just provide enough meat. It will also be used as a mount for everyone when they need to transport large quantities of supplies over long distances or ride.

Actually, I was a little surprised by this topic, they are minotaurs, and I have the impression that cows have a lot of stamina and can run for a short time. It stands to reason that they are creatures that are fully capable of running like horses, but Anak asked me rhetorically, you humans can also run and pull goods, so why do you need mounts?

Makes sense!

It took us four days from leaving the Great Wall to actually seeing Thunder Bluff!

Mogaure is indeed not a small place! Also, if there are only 10 square kilometers, it is estimated that it will not be able to feed many people.

The appearance of Thunder Cliff shocked me, and it was just afternoon when I got there, and the sunset of the grassland impressed me, it was so beautiful!

And Thunder Cliff is indeed a very peculiar existence, the rolling mountains can only be seen in a long distance around Thunder Cliff, and in this flat clearing, there are several huge ...... standing proudly I don't know a more precise word to describe whether this is a platform or a mountain.

It's really abrupt! It's just that there are a few mountain-like things popping up on the flat ground...... And the mountain is round and very steep, just on such a few large platforms, you can see a lot of buildings on the big heights, and there are people living on them.

Anak took us to a village at the foot of Thunder Bluff, where he settled us down before he said to go find the leader of their tribe and he would return soon.

Sam was suspicious of his actions, and it was normal to think this way in a place full of minotaurs, so I asked him if he was afraid, and he said that he was not afraid but worried that this guy might not be able to do it. I said that it's all here now, the first ninety-nine steps have been taken, and now it's just this step, whether it's good or bad, I have to try, and even if that guy really can't do it, I have my own way.

He said that as a race outside of this land, they had never been in contact with each other before, and it might be a bit rude for us to come here so rashly. I didn't think much of what he said, although the minotaur could run, jump and talk, but as a human being, the red tape didn't necessarily have so much to say, and on the way to the road, I had asked Anak about their customs, and there was no habit of having to bring gifts when visiting.

Although the head of the cow is tall and full of hair, but these cows are really different from my impression, they will have a special smell, is the smell of the grass after slightly fermenting, but it is not very smelly, not fishy and not foul, and this group of guys is still quite clean, the family that entertained us has two heifers and two calves, the hair on the body is very smooth and clean.

We were all amazed by what they ate, and the unpretentious minotaurs made bread that had just come out of their oven and was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, a wheat flavor that I had never tasted in Lordaeron. They also make wine, wild grapes, blueberries, wild strawberries and other berries, and of course, their ...... Milk!

When we found out that it was the cows' own milk, I saw Sam's expressions on their faces, and I felt a little embarrassed, Sam's eyes widened and he put down his cup in embarrassment.

The girls and women who accompanied us laughed straight, and we were a little embarrassed. They immediately teased us, wasn't it the milk of cows that used to drink milk, but now we drink the freshest milk, why are we embarrassed. The heifers didn't seem to be embarrassed at all when they brought their milk just now, but as human beings, we were a little hard to accept. But in spite of this, in the end, everyone drank this precious gift under the gaze of the heifers.

The dinner that night was still good, slate omelette, roast wolf meat, cheese, and some plant-based vegetables that they grew that I didn't know either. But we really couldn't eat these vegetables in the end, and I guess I wouldn't be able to digest them if we didn't have four stomachs or rumination ability after eating.

Anyway, the night was full of laughter, and it was the first time I had seen the Forsaken show the kind of behavior that only living people have.

Anak came back in the middle of the night, and he was happy to tell me that it was done! And let us go with him to their prince tomorrow morning. And when I asked if there were any questions or things that needed attention, he told me that you just need to reflect you and your value.

He said it in general terms, and in order to ensure that the meeting tomorrow morning would go smoothly, I had a long conversation with him all night, of course, over a drink.

The leader to be seen tomorrow is the leader of their Terror Totem Clan, the Magasa Terror Totem known as the Great Witch. Since it is a great witch, it must also be a woman, according to Anak, their terror totem has always been more radical, radical means belligerent and xenophobic, this great witch's parents fell in the early years of the war against the centaurs, which also caused her more radical personality.

She was a great witch and a high priest, a high shaman, and he was a truly psychic person, and the wind knew what we said, the earth knew the way, the wind knew it, the earth knew it, the water knew it, and everything we did knew it. He warned me not to lie in front of her, and that the Earth Spirit would tell her the truth when she doubted you.

I was stunned when I heard this, is it really so amazing? Anak told me very seriously that this was true.

And when I asked him what his preferences or temper were for the great witch, he only said that his preferences were unknown, that he had a quick temper, that he was stubborn, that he was a hardliner, and that he had wrapped us up in front of her, hoping that I would not lose face when I met his chief tomorrow.

I didn't feel tired after a sleepless night, so I let everyone clean up their faces early in the morning, and walked on the grass with some dewdrops in the bright morning light, and the sun steamed the water on the grass blades into the air again, and the fresh smell was refreshing. And in the morning glow, the tall image of Thunder Cliff is really more breathtaking.

Coming to the bottom of the thunder, several of the minotaur guards looked at us, spoke to Anak, and let us climb the elevator of the Thunder Bluff.

According to the goblins, they helped the minotaur to repair, and to be honest, they repaired quite well. The elevator is about five meters square, and it is made of very thick wood, which is reinforced and bundled with metal to ensure stability.

When I looked at the Thunder Cliff from the bottom up, I felt its towering and huge, and when this elevator rose higher and higher, I felt more about what is the momentum, what is the vastness, and what is the vast world.

In our shock, the elevator reached its peak, and what caught our eyes was not bustling and noisy, but an orderly and busy, prosperous but peaceful scene.

"I kind of like this place too." Sam said involuntarily.
