Chapter 269 Bloody Corridor
After leaving the Thunder Bluff, there is still a sea of clouds that cannot be seen at the end. Compared with the other side, the clouds here move faster, resulting in more electric light.
Ivan discovered another elemental creature, a half-meter eel condensed by thunder, which drilled in the clouds in groups.
More than an hour later, a gale belt appeared in front of us, which was the end of the sea of clouds.
"Wizard Ivan, leave it to me."
"Okay."
The swamp ant condensed a circle of light yellow protective film to protect itself and the people it carried. After being recognized, it rushed into the gale belt slowly.
In terms of strength, the swamp ant is also a creature at the top of the third level. Even the gale belt that ordinary first-level senior wizards cannot stop naturally cannot block its way forward.
After breaking through the gale belt, new land came into view, as well as the blood-red light in the sky.
"The Blood Corridor is truly worthy of its name."
"Wasn't this also caused by the battle between powerful creatures?"
"Yes, this place is exactly the same as the sea of clouds behind us."
Hearing Ivan's answer, the Queen of Silkworms couldn't help smacking her lips.
The blood-red light covering the land in front of her eyes was really eye-catching. It seemed that there was a blood-red sun hidden in the depths, shining all around, covering everything nearby in the blood-red light, and also making the land extremely desolate.
This place has a disordered force field and violent elements, which is equivalent to a survival restricted area.
"Are there any living creatures in it?" The Queen of Silkworms asked.
"Of course there are, but due to the particularity of the environment, the creatures born often have some defects, most of them have perverse temperaments, and will attack people for no reason." Ivan did his homework in advance and signaled the ants to take a detour.
Due to the existence of the Blood Forbidden Zone, they can only take a detour from the right edge, which is the only relatively safe way.
No one knows how many strange creatures the Blood Forbidden Zone has bred, and what those creatures are capable of. Naturally, there is no definite safe path.
However, the characteristics of most creatures are to bully the weak and fear the strong.
The swamp ants showed their aura to the surrounding area, and avoided 95% of the harassment from creatures. As for the rest, one person and two insects could easily deal with it.
After a long detour, the blood-red light around them became barely perceptible, and the green mountains and green waters occupied the field of vision again.
"Look, there is a human city."
"This is normal. Special environments are prone to nurturing special items, such as some mutant magic plants. Secondly, the concentration of elemental particles here exceeds that of the Moon Clamp Peninsula by 60% to 70%. For wizards, it is a good place to live."
Ivan also knew that many wizard families in the Moon Clamp Peninsula had opened up settlements here, including the Thousand Lights City of the three major families headed by Wakin.
Before he left the Mona Ant Land Hut, Dean Wakin invited him to visit the Thousand Lights City many times, but he never agreed. He was unfamiliar with the place and it would only increase embarrassment if he went there.
"You two should be alert. There are many bandits and villains who escaped from China Continent and are hiding here. This is a truly chaotic area."
"I'm afraid they don't dare to come."
Looking at the eager Silkworm Queen and the Marsh Ant, Ivan didn't know what to say. How could a wizard who has always been kind to others cultivate two insect pets who love fighting?
One side is the restricted area, and the other side is the human settlement.
The blood-colored corridor is a different kind of madness under the calm.
Ivan was originally going to bypass it and head straight to the China Continent, but the outbreak of an incident disrupted his plan.
Without any signs, the blood-colored light expanded, constantly covering more areas.
"There is a big movement!"
"Turn back, let's find a city to rest first, and wait for the restricted area to recover."
The blood-colored light expanded rapidly, and the dazzling halo made it difficult to see what was inside. They could only hear the sound of "booming" footsteps, and the steps were particularly heavy.
Ivan didn't dare to stop and ordered the marsh ants to rush to the human settlement at the fastest speed.
The speed of the marsh ants was reassuring, and the blood-red light could not keep up.
Ivan had the mind to look back. The light in the distance seemed to have undergone multiple folds, making it very unreal, until a glimpse of it was refracted.
He could see clearly that it was a leg similar to a pillar supporting the sky. The height of the owner could be analyzed from the size of the leg. The elemental giant that was like a small mountain in the sea of clouds before was completely dwarfed by this one.
'Illusion? Mirage? '
'Or a giant made of light? '
A big question mark appeared in Ivan's mind, but he had no intention of investigating it. He ordered the marsh ants to run from one city to another, and finally came to a city far away from the blood-red light-Luoguang City.
Luoguang City is not the private territory of any family, but a commercial city established by a chamber of commerce called 'Luoguang', willing to entertain any wizard passing by.
After entering the city, Ivan discovered a phenomenon.
The ordinary people here are not so ordinary. Many of them have undergone blood transformation. It seems that blood transformation is a very common thing, which is very different from what he imagined.
On second thought, the energy here is violent, which is not conducive to the survival of ordinary people. Blood transformation may reduce the loss of life.
In Luoguang City, wizards have their own living areas. After asking for directions, Ivan came to a large tavern.
"Sir, welcome to the Fire Wolf Tavern. Do you have any instructions?"
"Is there a quieter compartment?"
"Yes, yes, sir, please come this way."
In the tavern hall, as soon as Ivan walked in, the voices of conversation around him immediately dropped a lot. Whether it was the owner of the tavern, or the adventurers and wizards who gathered together to drink, they all looked at him with awe.
Ivan guessed that the problem must be in Thunder Bluff.
Someone there passed his message here first, or sold it here, telling everyone that a strong man who should not be provoked had come.
The situation here was obviously different from the Moon Clamp Peninsula.
He didn't care about anything. It was a good thing that no one bothered him. After arriving at the compartment, he asked the owner to serve him a table of dishes. Just bring whatever you want.
Soon, all kinds of dishes filled the round table, which were delivered by the owner himself.
"Sir, please tell me if you need anything."
"When will the road to China Continent return to normal?" Ivan asked the most critical question.
"It will take two or three days at the shortest, and five or six days at the longest. There is news that treasures have appeared in the newly covered area. If it is true, then we have to calculate it according to the longest time, and it will take five or six days to return to normal." The owner said everything.
"Okay, I got it. I'll call you if I need anything." Ivan waved his hand.
He had just arrived, so he couldn't go treasure hunting because of an uncertain piece of news. The restricted area of the Blood Corridor was not just a talk. It was easy to get stuck in it if you were not careful.
While Ivan was eating and drinking leisurely, the airship of the Ancient Tree Spine was accelerating to escape from the area covered by the blood-red light. It looked so hasty.
"Crack, crack."
The airship sank suddenly, and the tail made a sound of being squeezed too much.
Deacon Tim looked back and saw a giant hand at the stern. The light condensed into a hand and tightly pinched the two sides of the hull, as if ready to tow the airship back.
"Speed up, maximum acceleration."
At this moment, his blood was almost coagulated by fear. He hurriedly gave orders while flying towards the stern with a sword.
