Buzz——!!
"Dear passengers, the next stop is Tanagawa City..."
With a dull hum, the green train slowly stopped. Lin Qiye and others got off the train and checked the time.
"According to the original plan, we will split up. Pangpang and Anqingyu will go to buy survival supplies, and Cao Yuan and I will look for a car from here to Anta County."
The other three nodded.
Lin Qiye looked into Baili Pangpang's eyes and earnestly instructed: "Once we arrive in Anta County, there will be no shopping malls where we can purchase survival supplies, so all the equipment must be purchased here. Don't forget."
Baili Pangpang patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Lin Qiye simply ignored his assurance and turned to look at An Qingyu beside him. The latter nodded to him, and Lin Qiye immediately felt relieved.
The reason why An Qingyu and Baili Pangpang were brought together was to prevent Baili Pangpang from losing things. With An Qingyu watching, this matter was definitely a safe bet.
The four of them agreed on a meeting time and then quickly separated.
Tianhe City is already a city on the border of Daxia. Its infrastructure is relatively underdeveloped, and the streets are deserted with basically no people to be seen. Anta County is the northernmost county in Tianhe City and is even more deserted. Not to mention trains, there isn't even a passenger transport center.
The only way to get to Anta County is to drive or hitchhike.
Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan searched for a long time near the station and finally found a driver going to Anta County. After paying the deposit, they returned to the agreed place and waited.
About an hour later, Baili Pangpang and An Qingyu returned to the meeting place.
"How is it? Have you bought everything?" Lin Qiye asked An Qingyu directly.
An Qingyu's expression was very strange. He pondered for a moment and said uncertainly: "I have bought everything, but..."
"Just buy them all." Lin Qiye nodded.
Baili Pangpang took out four cold-proof clothes and a mountaineering bag from his pocket. Lin Qiye put some food, water, and survival necessities in each bag, and then handed them to everyone.
In fact, with Baili Pangpang's [Free Space], they didn't need to carry backpacks at all. Lin Qiye did this for two reasons: first, to disguise himself as adventurers and hide the straight knife in the backpack to prevent the local night watch team from getting suspicious. Second, to prevent everyone from getting separated and losing supplies.
It is worth mentioning that Lin Qiye had just sent the applications for joining the other three people to Ye Fan, so An Qingyu’s straight knife, badge and cloak were not yet in hand. However, for the current reserve team, putting on cloaks to do the mission is tantamount to directly telling the local Night Watch team that they are here, and then trying to prove their identity will cause a lot of trouble.
He zipped up his winter clothing to the top, put on his furry cold-proof Lei Feng hat, put his hands into thick gloves, and put on the heavy dark mountaineering bag. Lin Qiye looked at himself in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction.
It has the flavor of a northern traveler.
…
After nearly five hours of bumpy ride, the four finally arrived in Anta County.
A five-hour drive is enough to pass through four or five cities in the south of Daxia, but this place is close to the border of Daxia and on the edge of the primeval forest. The distance between cities is extremely far, so a five-hour drive is only considered normal time.
Lin Qiye got out of the car and was slightly startled when he saw the scene in the distance.
At the end of the blue sky, behind the rolling mountains, the mist connecting the sky and the earth is like an endless white wall, winding around the other end of the horizon...
The mists clung to the border of Daxia, rolling violently like sea water covered in a glass tank, unable to move forward even an inch.
That is the end of the earth and the beginning of the sky.
"That's... fog." An Qingyu was also stunned when he looked at the foggy wall in the distance.
They had never seen anything like it.
If they had not come to the city on the border of Daxia this time, they might never have imagined what the so-called foggy border was like.
"It's hard to imagine that such a foggy border extends over 50,000 kilometers..." Cao Yuan said with emotion.
Lin Qiye slowly retracted his gaze and said, "Let's go and take a look at the Night Watch base here first."
"Go to the Night Watch stronghold?" Baili Pangpang was stunned, "Aren't we supposed to avoid contact with them?"
"We are adventurers now, and approaching them will not reveal our identities." Lin Qiye shook his head, "Besides, the primeval forest is too large. We have no specific clues about the location where the mysterious beast appeared. Just rushing into the primeval forest like this is like looking for a needle in a haystack."
"We have to pretend to be travelers and get clues from the night watchmen stationed here?" Cao Yuan frowned slightly, "Will this be too difficult?"
Lin Qiye looked up into the distance and spoke slowly, "Perhaps, we can use a more direct method..."
…
Half an hour later.
"Qi Ye..." The corners of Baili Pangpang's mouth twitched slightly, "Are you sure this is the base of the Night Watch?"
At this moment, the four of them were standing in front of a short and dilapidated two-story building and fell into silence.
This is already the very edge of Anta County. Looking around, there are only barren trees and old dirt paths all around. Within a radius of three kilometers, there is only this two-story building standing here alone.
This building seems to be very old. Most of the red walls on the outside have fallen off, and the open space at the door is also uneven. On the right side of the stairs in this building, there is a yellowed white metal plate with a few large characters written on it.
——Anta County Forest Protection Bureau.
Lin Qiye nodded. "This is the place Commander Ye wrote in the message. It should be correct."
The reserve team of the special team has the authority to know the information of the night watch team stationed in any city. On the way here, Lin Qiye asked Ye Fan for the information of the night watch team in Tianhe City. Unexpectedly, the night watch teams in Anta County and Tianhe City are independent of each other.
The reason is that the distance between the two cities is too far, and Anta County itself is near the primeval forest, so a separate Night Watch outpost was set up here.
However, as far as Lin Qiye knows, this night watch team stationed in Anta County only has two people including the captain, and their realms are not high, all of them are only at the "Chi" realm... If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the team with the smallest number of people in the entire Daxia Night Watch.
"Let's go in and take a look first." Lin Qiye said.
