The border between the Kingdom of Nergal and the Principality of Orebor is a barren rocky valley.

Because the terrain is rugged and there are a large number of ferocious monsters hiding there, the two countries simply designated the valley as a buffer zone.

At this time, a black-haired young man was sitting cross-legged among a piece of barren rocks.

The young man was wearing a loose green robe and facing the depths of the valley with his eyes closed.

A long black knife without a guard and wrapped in bandages was stuck in the ground next to him.

Tap tap...

It was unknown how long it had been, but suddenly footsteps appeared in front of the young man, and they were getting closer and closer.

The person who came was a humanoid creature nearly three meters tall.

It has four thick arms on its body and eight eyes arranged in four rows on its face, with pupils flashing red.

On the humanoid's back, four short spears were embedded in the skin.

The creature with four arms and eight eyes looked at the black-haired young man sitting cross-legged opposite him, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"I didn't expect to come across food right after arriving at the land. It looks delicious!"

The four-armed, eight-eyed creature stuck out its green tongue and licked its lips, revealing a mouth full of fangs.

As he approached the black-haired young man, he took the four one-and-a-half-meter-long scarlet spears behind him.

Bang!

When it was about a hundred meters away from the black-haired young man, the four-armed creature suddenly disappeared on the spot.

The next moment, the ground cracked where the four-armed creature disappeared.

His figure had already appeared in front of the black-haired young man, and the short spear stabbed at the latter's head.

"hehe……"

A hint of sarcasm flashed in the four-armed creature's eyes, but the next moment he was shocked.

The attack of the ninth-level [Strider] was actually blocked by the opponent with a broken knife wrapped in bandages!

Bang!

The energy generated by the collision of weapons of both sides spread out in all directions, and the boulders and the ground in the valley made a series of explosions!

The four-armed creature frowned and quickly rolled back and retreated.

After landing on the ground, he looked at the black-haired young man and asked, "Who are you, sir?"

The black-haired young man half raised his eyes, glanced at the other party and replied: "You came down too early!"

The four-armed creature snorted coldly upon hearing this: "You must be a [Godwalker] from the lower world as well. Since you have come down, why can't I come down as well?"

The reason why the four-armed creature was wasting time talking to the other party was because he couldn't figure out where the black-haired young man came from.

[Godwalker] is actually the body that houses the soul of God when the God from the divine world descends to the earth. It is usually a believer.

Under the influence of the power of rules, the strength of the God Walker depends on the power of faith that the gods from the divine realm are willing to pay.

Once the Strider dies, the power of faith will dissipate and cannot be recovered.

God's strength is linked to the power of faith he obtains.

However, it is not easy for most gods to obtain the power of faith.

Therefore, when nothing is wrong, few gods are willing to descend upon the body, as it would be a huge loss if an accident happened.

His purpose of this trip was to accomplish something, so he injected a large amount of power of faith into his body, causing his body's strength to reach the ninth level, the peak of the Earth Realm!

But from the moment of fighting just now, the four-armed creature knew that the opponent was also a ninth-level one!

Moreover, the other party exuded divine power, indicating that he was also a [Godwalker]!

In the world of gods, he is just a small god.

I live in hiding every day.

If the shell dies, the loss of faith power will cause his strength to regress by decades.

That's why he wanted to test the other party's background.

"It's fine if you didn't get spotted by me. But for an unlucky guy like you who was spotted by me, there's only one fate."

The black-haired young man stood up and hefted the unguarded broadsword onto his shoulder, his robe fluttering in the wind.

He looked at the four-armed creature, his black eyes revealing a coldness, "That means death!"

Swish~!

When the syllable of "death" fell, the black-haired young man disappeared from the spot and appeared behind the four-armed creature.

The tip of the knife, flashing with cold light, has already touched the opponent's spine.

At the critical moment, the four-armed creature roared, and its back squirmed, and suddenly scarlet limbs grew out, the tips of which stabbed towards the black-haired young man's head.

In order to dodge the arthropods, the black-haired young man gave up the attack and retreated backwards.

But then the two began a fierce fight.

The entire valley was filled with loud roars, and mountains began to collapse one after another.

The monsters living in the valley fled madly into the distance, even forming waves of beast tides, causing great damage to the towns on the border of the two countries.

I don't know how long it took, but the noise in the valley gradually subsided.

The [Strider] has turned into a giant spider, his body twisted in a strange posture and stained with blood.

It fell to the ground helplessly, dying. Looking at the black-haired young man walking towards it with a black knife in his hand, its eight eyes were filled with anger and fear.

"You... you are not the [God Walker], you are the [Earth God Hunter] He Zeng! Just wait, I will report this to the God Realm... The gods will judge you..."

Phew!

A flash of black light flashed by, and the eight-eyed spider's head rose in an arc in the air.

"Judge me? In the underworld, I have the final say!"

He Zeng smiled and shook his head, then stretched out the black knife. The power of faith that had dissipated around him was slowly gathered on the knife.

These powers of faith were accumulated by the Eight-Eyed Spider for decades, but they were actually absorbed by the enemy.

If the real body of the God Realm knew about this, he would be shocked and then angry to death!

The headless body on the ground slowly returned to its original state as it lost the power of faith.

This is just a Black Mountain spider monster.

Looking at the collapsing valley around him, He Zeng raised the black knife and placed it behind his back.

During this process, the bandage on the handle is automatically wrapped around the blade.

The figure of the black-haired young man walked farther and farther away, leaving only a murmur behind.

"More than a thousand years have passed. The seals have loosened a bit, and the guys up there are almost unable to hold back. Where are you hiding now? Or... have you not woken up yet?"

…

The Kingdom of Nergal is bordered by the Storm Sea to the south, the Demon Realm to the north, the Roland Empire to the west, and the Principality of Orebor to the east.

The Dwarf Kingdom is still northwest of the Roland Empire.

In normal times, caravans or mercenaries would venture through the Demon Realm and rush from the Kingdom of Nergal to the Dwarf Kingdom.

Although it will be dangerous, the journey can be reduced by at least two-thirds!

But this is wartime.

There are a large number of monsters at the border of the Demon Realm. If you force your way through the Demon Realm, you will most likely be targeted by high-level monsters.

So Annuo planned to rush from the western border of the kingdom to the Roland Empire, and then reach the Dwarf Kingdom from the Roland Empire.

The journey is long, and it would take an ordinary person half a year to get there.

But Anno is not an ordinary person.

In just three days, he walked more than 800 kilometers and arrived at the border between the western border of the kingdom and the Roland Empire.

"Sasier, cross the forest ahead and you will reach the Roland Empire! Speed ​​up and try to find a village to spend the night before dark!"

"OK!"

Sasier howled and ran quickly towards the setting sun.
