Chapter 83 The Source of the Monster

Deep in the dark mountains.

The pioneering team has been active here for a month. After initially establishing a firm foothold, Gao Wen will send various exploration teams every day to search for materials, survey the terrain, and go to the mountains in the south, the forests in the west, the east mines, or the wilderness on the other side of the Baishui River. The mountain route of the famous serf is one of the natural mountain trails that have just been discovered in recent days. But although it was newly discovered, there have been exploration teams and soldier patrols coming and going several times, but no traces of monsters have ever been found.

Those aberrations are undoubtedly new here.

The road into the mountain is not easy to walk. Although Gawain and Amber have amazing foot strength, there are two other serfs who are ordinary people who can't walk so fast. It took them nearly an hour to finally approach the fork where the monster attacked before. near the mouth.

As she got closer and closer to that place, Amber, who was usually careless and jumpy, couldn't help but get nervous, she held the small dagger tightly and lowered her voice: "It's been so long, those monsters should also be Wander away"

"Not necessarily, you don't understand the 'habits' of the aberrations," Gawain looked at the rocky mountain road ahead and the overgrown plants on both sides of the mountain road. His eyes stopped on a steep mountain wall that seemed to collapse at any time. After a long time, he lowered his voice and said, "They are not normal life forms, they do not need to eat in a magical environment, and they have no clear purpose of action except for the instinct of attacking intelligent life and tending to the source of magic. If there is a human or magical response, they will swoosh, but if not, they will wander aimlessly, or stay in place. Of course, if there is a certain number of them, the action is unpredictable. "

"So what is the aberration?" Amber muttered, his eyes constantly moving between the shadows among those trees, not to be alert to the enemy hiding in the dark, but to constantly find escape routes.

Gawain shook his head: "It's hard to say. There is a conjecture that humans have become aberrants after being attacked by chaotic magic, and there is another saying that a channel to another world has been opened in the magic tide, and the aberrations are from other from the space, but in fact none of the claims has been confirmed.”

Amber pouted, thinking that even someone like Gawain who had fought with monsters for twenty years in his last life couldn't tell where the monsters came from. It seems that the so-called experts and scholars in the kingdom's interior are even more unreliable in this regard. .

And just as her eyes swept around, a trace on the ground suddenly caught her attention: "Hey, there seems to be something over there!"

On the stone wall not far ahead, you can see the cracked rock, and dry blood can be seen between the cracks in the rock.

When the two serfs who were in charge of leading the way saw the trace, they shivered like chaff.

"Looks like it's around here,

"Gao Wen clenched the pioneer's sword, and felt any subtle changes in his surroundings, "Raise your vigilance. "

Amber swallowed and followed Gawain carefully and turned to the other side of the fork, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Suddenly, Gawain stopped, and an instinctive alertness from this body permeated. Under the guidance of this alertness, he quickly hid behind a boulder and probed to the other side of the mountain road.

Four gigantic humanoid creatures that looked like giants of flesh and bones appeared in the field of vision. They staggered and patrolled the mountain road. There were no facial features on the faces flowing with red mud, but chaos and blasphemy continued to spread between their chests and abdomens. , An indescribable whisper.

Oh, whispered.

"One, two, three, four," there was a warm breath in the ear, and Amber's low voice came from behind, "it seems that the serfs have encountered them. It seems that they haven't found us yet, you go first, I'll wait until you can't see me before running."

However, Gawain ignored this elf's humiliating daily talk, and his eyes were fixed on the abdomen of one of the aberrations, where he could see a gray-black object that had been distorted and decayed. He couldn't tell what it was at all, but Gawain saw it after reading it carefully: it was a weapon of the Gondor Empire standard!

He closed his eyes, sensed the surroundings, and confirmed that there were no more monsters nearby, and then should Amber: "Wait, I will charge forward, you sneak over to backstab the last one, hold the next one, and I will deal with the other two. Join forces to resolve the battle."

Amber blinked and nodded happily: "Okay, wait for your action."

Although she deliberately gagged and said some weird things before, it was clear that when it came time to do the right thing, she was still unambiguous.

The two serfs who led the way had been scared by the monster and couldn't move at this time, but they mustered up the last courage to cover their mouths. They didn't scream in panic or run away. This was a pretty good performance for them. , Gawain nodded to the two of them, told them to wait quietly, and then raised the sword of pioneers.

The magic power was injected into the blade, and the scorching light spurted out from the blade, and Gawain's armor was also covered with a layer of pale white shimmer, and then he jumped up and directly crossed dozens of meters. The distance, fell from the sky and slashed towards the monster that had just reacted.

At the same time as he jumped out, a hazy shadow also flashed in the air, and then the last of the four monsters shook his body. Chaos roared, but Chrysanthemum was hit hard and fell to the ground after a critical hit.

Amber emerged from the shadows and began to swim around the other monster that had already reacted. Her little dagger had no effect at all when it hit places other than the monster's weak point, and could only splash out some red mud. Or sparks, so as soon as the fight starts, you shout, "Boss help!"

Gawain's long sword had already been cut off, staggering the first aberration, and then instead of chasing him, he turned around and rushed towards the monster with an ancient sword stuck in its abdomen, just as he expected. Just like that: Although a sword in the stomach is not fatal to this monster, it will also affect its activities. In the face of Gawain's fierce offensive, it only resisted twice, and was cut directly from it. two paragraphs.

If you have the power to cut the enemy in two, it doesn't matter if you hit the weak spot or not.

The aberration in front of him let out a chaotic and inexplicable roar, and its murmurs before death were mixed with powers that could disrupt people's minds, but Gawain didn't care about the momentary trance in his mind, twisting his body with force, the blade was already cut. Hit the enemy who was slashed by his first sword.

Then, in the shameful cries of Amber's wailing, the last enemy was also successfully beheaded.

As the giant made of flesh and mud fell heavily to the ground, and quickly decomposed into chaotic elements in the air, Amber also fell to the ground with a butt: "Oh my god, I'm exhausted, it seems that I still have to strengthen myself. "Escape Technique"

Gawain looked at the wreckage of the monster lying on the ground and said without raising his head: "Isn't it time to improve the frontal combat effectiveness of normal thinking at this time?"

"Let me tell you, my current frontal combat effectiveness is already at my personal peak. I am very self-aware. What are you studying?"

Amber only noticed that Gao Wen was squatting next to the wreckage of one of the aberrations, with his head down and researching, so he asked curiously.

Gao Wen beckoned: "Come and see."

Amber obediently leaned over, and she saw that the aberration fell to the ground, and a large amount of flesh and blood on the body had "evaporated", leaving only a blood-red skeleton (the skeleton will take a few days to completely dissipate) . And on this terrifying skeleton, there is a piece of metal that has been severely twisted and corroded.

Amber blinked: "What is this?"

"The soldier's sword of the Gondor Empire," Gawain said in a serious tone, "You can't go wrong, it's the model used by the empire's northern outpost back then."

Although Amber's personality is eccentric, he is not stupid, and he reacted instantly at this time: "Wait! This monster has this thing on it, so it came from the wasteland of Gondor?!"

Gao Wen nodded silently.

"How is this possible!" Amber felt the cold sweat spread from the back of his head to his heels in an instant, "The entire wasteland of Gondor is surrounded by magnificent walls built by elves, those sentry towers are not decorations, how could these monsters run out? of?!"

Gawain was silent for a while, and suddenly said faintly: "The magnificent wall has been standing there for seven hundred years."

Amber-faced twitched and smiled dryly: "Hey, don't scare me, maybe these monsters were locked out of the wall from the beginning, dangling between the Dark Mountains and the Sentinel Tower, and then just swayed here this year. "

"Impossible, the aberrations will gradually disintegrate after leaving the magic tide environment, unless their number reaches a new chaotic magic environment," Gawain dismissed Amber's last hope, "These monsters cannot survive outside the wall. Seven hundred years, so they ran out of the wall."

Amber thought for a while, then shivered: "Mom!"

"Don't say anything," Gawain looked into Amber's eyes, "It doesn't have to be that bad. I was there when the Sentinel Tower was erected. I know those things have the function of self-healing and load balancing, so it's unlikely. It will be completely shut down. The biggest possibility is that one of the sentry towers has temporarily lost power due to its age, but the barrier will heal itself in a short time.”

Amber swallowed: "What does it mean in human words?"

Gawain: "It's just that there may be a hole in the barrier temporarily, but it will fill it up by itself."

"Then you didn't say it earlier," Amber quickly patted his chest, which was not very present, "scared me."

However, Gawain still frowned: "Don't be too busy to relax, it is obvious that there is a problem with the magnificent wall, even if a hole is made and repaired, it is enough to prove that it is aging, and the small hole will turn into a big hole sooner or later. of."

"Then what?!"

"No, I have to take a look, even if the wall is still there from a distance," Gao Wen suddenly got up, "Stay here and guess, you will never be at ease."

"Then I" Amber stood up, her mentality swaying violently between cowardice and recklessness, but in the end she was still infected by Gawain's attitude and gritted her teeth, "I'll go with you!"
