Chapter 227: The Great Purge
Originally, you could go in by paying the money, which was a very simple thing, but Chen Mulai was really unfortunate and didn't catch up with the good time.
According to the Boss of the Five Scumbags, not long ago, the "Dawn Fortress" in the north suddenly dispatched a large number of Arctic guards to carry out a round of cleaning of all areas near the Great Wall of Desperation.
Any warrior of unknown origin, even creatures close to the Great Wall, was mercilessly captured, banished, and slaughtered by the Arctic Guard.
Such a big movement naturally made people panic in the vicinity.
Originally, Cape Doom has always been at odds with the Arctic Guard, and every year, a large number of Inhumans and materials are smuggled from Cape Doom, bypassing the Great Wall of Desperation, and going back and forth between Bitter Salt City and Cape Doom.
This kind of behavior is tantamount to a capital enemy, if it was placed in the first European emperor, he would have killed the horn of doom all over the field and blood.
Even when the strength of the royal family was still strong, Doom would not dare to do business with Inhumans so blatantly.
But with the decline of imperial power, the princes of various places rose together, constantly attacking each other, fighting openly and secretly, and no one cared about whether the Doom Horn was an enemy.
To put it mildly, all the big forces in the world really never do business with the demon clan, I'm afraid there are only a few, and some of them have no contact with the demon clan because they are too far away from the permafrost wasteland.
There is no way, interests are the most important thing, in this chaotic situation in the world, very few people really care about what demon clan is not a demon clan, as long as they can make a lot of profits, they dare to risk the world's disapproval.
Even the "Ouroboros", which has been committed to destroying the world, still has a lot of forces willing to do business with them, who calls it high-risk and high-return, the more the demon clan and the "Ouroboros" are such forces that everyone shouts about, the more willing they are to pay a high price, and even willing to accept obviously unequal trading relationships.
If you don't do such a good deal, naturally some people will rush to do it.
But the Arctic Guard is definitely a mortal enemy who does not have any dealings with the demon clan, so their relationship with the Doom Horn is not good, and there are often large and small frictions, and sometimes it even turns into a local war.
And most of the time, it is the Arctic Guard who takes the initiative to attack the Cape of Doom, who calls people to have an impregnable and indestructible "Great Wall of Desperation", if you have the ability, you will fight, and I will lose if you fight.
Fortunately, the Arctic Guard lacks the support of other big forces, and it is not an exaggeration to say that there is a lack of food and clothing, which is also a helpless thing, they have been stationed on the Great Wall of Desperation for generations, and they have long been integrated with the Great Wall.
The permafrost wasteland where the Great Wall of Despair is located is a real bitter cold place, the environment is so bad that it is a mess, and the supplies produced are not to mention self-sufficient.
In this case, the situation of the Arctic Guard is also Wang Xiaoer's New Year, which is not as good as a year, and the offensive against the corner of doom is getting weaker and weaker.
In recent years, as the Demon Clan's fighting faction sharpened its sword towards the Great Wall, the pressure on the Arctic Guard had increased sharply, and it was no longer possible to care about the routine suppressive attack on the Doom Horn.
Baiyan City has also lived a comfortable life for a few years, if it was placed in the past, it would have to face the sweeping pressure of the Arctic Guard every once in a while, so that the city lord of Baiyan City wanted to move away and start anew several times.
It is precisely because the comfortable days have passed for too long that the sweep of the "Fortress of Dawn" seems so sudden, making everyone dazed and afraid.
Baiyan City is also panicked, the inner city has been under martial law since then, all people of unknown origin have been "invited" out of the inner city, and those who do not cooperate will have no good end, and it is the best result to be caught and sent to the slave camp.
They all began to drive people out, so naturally there is no such thing as paying money to enter the inner city, and it is not absolutely impossible to enter, there must be a guarantor or introducer, and the five scumbags of the war must not think about it, and stay in the outer city honestly.
What followed was an overwhelming amount of gossip, saying everything, but the most reliable news came from the inner city, and it is estimated that Baiyan City had the intention to appease people.
According to them, it turned out that the reason why the Arctic Guard suddenly carried out a big sweep was because the demon clan in the north made an earth-shattering move - the frost fortress was actually defeated by the demon clan, and a super big sinkhole was also built.
In other words, the Great Wall of Desperation, which has always been thought to be unforeseen by the world, has been carved out of a super hole in the middle by the demon clan.
The Doom Corner is too far away from the Frost Fortress, and there are horns like White Rock City, and there is not even a systematic intelligence agency, and the news received every day is not second-hand, I don't know how many hands it has passed, and the timeliness and authenticity are greatly reduced.
Chen Mu speculated based on intelligence that when the Frost Fortress collapsed on the side of Baiyan City, the gap sinkhole didn't know how long it had been fighting.
And the "Dawn Fortress" has the Arctic Guard's own intelligence transmission agency, so it is natural that the shocking news of the collapse of the Frost Fortress will be known for the first time.
Chen Mu guessed that the reason why they sent troops on a large scale to sweep the periphery of the Corner of Doom must also be inseparable from the war in the gap sinkhole.
As for the specific inside story, he is neither the Arctic Guard nor a combat faction, so he naturally doesn't know what the idea of fighting on the Dawn Fortress side is.
In Baiyan City's view, a big hole in the middle of the Great Wall of Desperation should be a good thing in theory, at least in the short term.
Even if you think about it with your ass, you know that for the Arctic Guard, the collapse of the Frost Fortress is definitely the same super bad news as the sky has fallen.
In any case, they will definitely do everything possible to rescue the battle situation on the other side of the gap sinkhole, if they can block the gap, naturally everything is easy to say.
But if it can't be stopped, and the demon clan really goes south, it will definitely not be good news for all the human forces close to the Great Wall of Desperation.
I used to do business with the demon clan, which was separated by the Great Wall of Desperation, knowing that there was a North Pole guard guarding it, it was impossible for the demon clan to cross the border on a large scale, and they could earn their hard-earned money with peace of mind.
But now that the Frost Fortress has collapsed, if the demon clan occupies the gap sinkhole, they can naturally come and leave as they want.
For those forces that are far away, the impact is not great, anyway, separated by 108,000 miles, no matter how ferocious the demon clan is, they must first deal with the country of eagles before they can continue to go south, right?
As for Baiyan City, you have to be careful, although the gap sinkhole is in the middle of the Desperate Great Wall, and the Doom Corner is a little lower in the easternmost part of the Desperate Great Wall, the distance between the two sides is definitely not close.
But no matter how close it is, it is still in the territory of the Eagle Country, and White Rock City is still in the outermost part of the Doom Corner, not too far away from the "Dawn Fortress", once the demon clan moves south and invades the Eagle Country, White Rock City will definitely not be able to escape.
