It was not difficult to save these Templar warriors. After finding the keys from the cultists, Fina and Fang Zheng quickly opened the Chaos Shackles that bound the Templar warriors. Without the shackles, these Templar warriors looked much better.

"Thank you both for your help."

The leading Templar warrior nodded to Fang Zheng very respectfully to express his gratitude. Fang Zheng had already explained his identity to them before. To Fang Zheng's surprise, these Templar warriors had more or less heard of his "heroic deeds". It seemed that after Knight Conan came back, he told them many times in the base what happened in the Shadow Canyon, so these Templar warriors were quite respectful to him.

Of course, this is also a good thing for Fang Zheng. At least he doesn't have to spend too much time talking to gain the other party's trust.

"No need to be polite. In fact, the reason I followed here, in addition to saving people, was mainly to find out what these cultists were planning to do. Do you have any clues?"

"this……"

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, the leading Templar warrior named John showed an ugly expression on his face.

"I'm very sorry, Master Fang Zheng, we don't know the real purpose of these cultists. They have been very tight-lipped along the way, and we can't find any clues at all. The only thing we know is that these cultists intend to take us to the Dark Swamp..."

"Dark Swamp?!"

Hearing this, Fina next to her suddenly cried out, her eyes widened, staring at the temple warrior in front of her in surprise.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, they said they would take us to the Dark Swamp..."

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Looking at Fina's pale face, Fang Zheng frowned and asked. Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Fina was stunned for a moment and then shook her head.

"No, Mr. Fang Zheng, maybe I'm overthinking..."

"Anyway, you should tell me first. No matter what, it is at least a clue. I think these cultists took their captives to the Dark Swamp, not for tourism."

"Then... I said..."

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Fina hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke in a low voice with gritted teeth.

"That... If I remember correctly, deep in the dark swamp... is the ruins of the forgotten kingdom... Summer..."

"Summer?!"

Fang Zheng hadn't reacted yet when he heard this, but the face of the Templar warrior named John changed drastically.

"You mean to say that these cultists intend to take us to that cursed and corrupted city?!"

That’s the place…

At this time, Fang Zheng finally understood what Fina was talking about.

As mentioned before, a long time ago, this continent was full of wars. Because a certain country sacrificed all its citizens under threat and opened the door to hell, the entire continent went through a dark period of more than 150 years. It was only after that that the countries on the continent signed the "Violet Covenant" and ended the war.

And the instigator was Summer.

According to the historical records Fang Zheng saw in the temple, Sammer used to be a very wealthy small country, but with the spread of war, their country was threatened by a neighboring country called Kadra because of its wealth and superior geographical location. At that time, it was one of the most powerful countries on the continent. It valued Sammer's location and wealth, so it sent a large army to invade Sammer, wanting to completely annex it.

The Sammer people were strong and brave. Although there was a huge gap in strength between the two sides, they still fought bravely. But even so, the whole country was eventually destroyed by Kadra, and their capital, the City of Glory, was surrounded by the army. The emperor of Kadra sent someone to give the Sammer people an ultimatum, requiring them to surrender within three days, otherwise he would massacre the capital.

Under heavy pressure, the people of Samar finally agreed to Emperor Kadra's request and opened the city to surrender three days later.

But on the third day, the City of Gloriousness still did not open its gates. The angry Emperor Kadra personally led the army to break through the city gates, and then they saw a horrifying scene.

The city was littered with dead bodies.

The bodies of men, women, children and even babies formed a huge and evil magic circle. Just as Emperor Kadra entered the city, the magic circle was activated.

It tore apart the entire space, and at the cost of the entire city and the souls of all the unjustly killed people of Summer, summoned one of the most powerful demons in hell - Gretus Drake Babu.

The dark army destroyed the entire army of Kadra in an instant. Then they began to spread to the surrounding areas. The ruler of Sammer signed an agreement with the devil with the souls of all his people, requiring them to destroy all countries that had invaded Sammer or ignored them when they were in war. Babu was happy to implement this agreement. The devil's army destroyed Kadra and the surrounding countries, and then began to invade every corner of the continent crazily.

In the next 150 years, the entire continent fell into darkness, death, blood and chaos. The Dusk Legion on the border of order was dispatched in large numbers, and darkness and demons also raged in the flames of death and evil. Countless countries were destroyed and disappeared in the flames.

Finally, under the leadership of the Holy Kingdom and the Magic Kingdom, the remaining forces on the continent united and launched a desperate counterattack. A group of warriors favored by the true god formed a death squad. What followed was the routine of Hollywood blockbusters. They dressed up as evil fallen and sneaked into the glorious city that had turned into a dark demon nest. There, they burned their souls to summon the power of the true god, completely sealed the space channel, and expelled the demon god Babu from the main world. The demon army, which lost its support, was also weak and was eventually destroyed by the coalition forces.

This dark war lasted for 150 years, and countless people lost their lives in this battle against darkness. Not only that, the most important thing was the invasion of the world of order by Chaos. You know, before that battle, Chaos was still far away from this continent, but now, why is the Fortress of Order built not far from the edge of the Dark Swamp?

Because the vast territory that originally belonged to Kadra has now become a paradise for the minions of Chaos!

The cause of all this was simply a big country trying to annex a small country.

It was after that that everyone finally understood that one should never push a country into a dead end, otherwise... who knows if it will drag others down with it.

"But hasn't it been completely sealed? I remember the records saying that it was the Goddess of Order who sealed it herself."

"I thought so too, but I'm always a little worried... I'm sorry, maybe I think too much..."

Looking at Fina's hesitant expression, Fang Zheng did not fail to understand her thoughts. It was like a police officer going out on a mission to catch a criminal. If he caught a murderer and he was involved in guns and drugs, it was normal and understandable. But if you caught a criminal and found out that he was planning to destroy the world with a nuclear bomb, you would doubt your life at the first moment.

This script is unrealistic.

"No matter what, we just need to catch these cultists and interrogate them to find out what they are trying to do."

Fang Zheng waved his hand and was about to say something else, when suddenly at this moment, Nymph's voice rang in his ears.

"Master! I detected the energy fluctuations of the wizard. He has returned to the camp!"

"oh?"

Fang Zheng's eyes lit up when he heard Nymph's answer.

"It looks like we'll soon find out what's going on."
