Chapter 209: Weird Valley



The team is led by Commander Ridal of Wubei Territory, and its members are four junior knights: Tom, George, Wharton, and Dandy.

They traveled all the way north from Black Earth Town and had been living in this forest for nearly a month. They had long since finished the food they had with them.

But this is not a big deal. There is no shortage of wild animals, wild vegetables, wild fruits and magical beasts in the woods, and they have no shortage of food.

In this raid, Redal basically played the role of a raider, and all the wild beasts and low-level monsters encountered were left to the four junior knights to deal with.

This can not only eliminate the points that threaten the territory, but also temper the courage of the knights and improve their combat capabilities.

Rather than calling it a mopping-up operation, it can actually be said to be a military training operation.

This was true for Redar's team, and also for the mopping-up team led by McKeon and Joffrey.

Now, except for Rogna, Kurami and Horn, most of Ronin's professional knights are training in the mountains and forests.

Whoosh~ Redal jumped down from the towering tree. He had just taken a rough look at the surrounding environment.

"I vaguely heard the sound of waves up there. I guess if we go a little further north we'll be close to the end of Wubei Territory."

Wubei Territory was blocked by the Wushan Monster Mountain Range in the west, and connected to the sea in the east and north. Now that Riedal heard the sound of waves, it meant that they were about to reach the northernmost point.

"Oh, the sea, I've never seen it before!" Tom said with some longing.

The other three also nodded. They had lived here since they were young and had heard of the sea, but had never seen it with their own eyes.

However, this did not prevent them from telling each other rumors about the sea.

What magnificent waves there are, a wave can even overturn a cow and other strange sights.

As Riedal listened to the discussion of several people in a serious and lively manner, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Speaking of which, he seemed to have quite a few memories of the sea in his mind, but most of them were about sailing on the sea with men and horses, and he didn't know where the destination was.

"Okay guys, stop with your lame stories."

The commander interrupted the conversation and said, "If you want to know what the sea looks like, why don't you go over there and take a look?"

Everyone smiled awkwardly, immediately picked up their weapons, and continued to head north.

There is a saying that goes, "If you run too far up the mountain, your horse will die."

Even though Riedal heard the sound of the waves, it still took him a long time to walk out of the woods.

When night fell, when they climbed the last peak in the moonlight, their view suddenly became clear, and they had a feeling of "after many twists and turns, you think there is no way out, but when you look up, you see a village with willows and flowers."

Going down from this hill is a concave valley, and the opening of the valley faces the vast ocean.

“Is that silvery white the ocean waves?”

"Wow, it's so wide!"

Under the night sky, although there is moonlight, the sea is pitch black. Only the surging waves reflect the moonlight, presenting a silver ribbon.

It’s a pity that they arrived a little late. If they had arrived at the beach during the day, the feeling would definitely be more magnificent than it is now.

Among the five people present, only Redar frowned slowly.

He could sense a chaotic elemental energy in the valley below, which gave him a vague feeling of uneasiness.

Moreover, the color of this valley is very strange.

Although the shadows cast by the mountains under the moonlight made the light in the valley not very good, Riedal felt that the valley was a little unusually gloomy, and there seemed to be a lavender light surging.

“There’s something wrong with this valley.”

The people around him finally noticed the solemn look on Redal's face. They quickly put away their expressions of wonder and joy at seeing the sea and looked around carefully.

But their senses were not as sharp as Riedal's, so they couldn't figure out what was going on.

"Sir, what's wrong?" Walton asked cautiously. He had never seen the commander with such a solemn expression.

Riedal shook his head slowly. This was just his feeling and it didn't mean anything.

"Let's go down and take a look."

Tom was already on high alert. They quietly held their knight swords in their hands and followed behind Rydar.

From the top of the mountain to the foot, although everyone was very careful, they did not encounter any danger.

But when they approached the foot of the mountain, they saw a scene that made their scalps tingle.

At the bottom of the valley, humans were decomposed to the point that only gray-black skeletons remained! Cold moonlight, salty sea breeze, and densely packed human skeletons...

Tom and others have experienced a lot of fighting these days, and ordinary scenes can't scare them, but the scene before them makes their scalps tingle.

"My lord, what is going on?"

George stuttered.

Riedal also looked tense. It was hard to imagine that such a scene would occur in the uninhabited northern border of Wubei Territory.

"Don't panic, stay alert!"

He whispered, "This might just be a battlefield from long ago."

Riedal came to a corpse and picked up the long sword on the ground. It was already rusty and broke into two pieces with just a slight shake.

It was obvious that this group had been dead for a long time.

"If they are a tribe of savages who escaped here, then it should have been more than ten or twenty years, right?"

Two tribes of savages fighting each other caused such a tragic scene? This seems unlikely. After all, they are all fugitives. Who would fight to the death? "Sir, there seems to be a cave over there."

Tom pointed down the opposite hillside and there seemed to be a huge cave.

Riedal frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then walked slowly over there.

He is now a Silver Knight and can handle most dangerous situations.

Moreover, they came out this time to eliminate the hidden dangers in Wubei Territory. It is impossible for them to encounter such a thing and dare not investigate because of fear.

Tom and the other three followed. It was safer to follow the commander than to stay where they were.

"There's something strange about this cave."

The more tense Riedal's expression became, the closer he got to the cave, the more chaotic the elements of heaven and earth around him became, and the colder the air became, as if there was ten thousand-year-old ice hidden in the cave.

Finally, they arrived in front of the cave.

"There are footprints here!" George exclaimed in a low voice.

There was a lavender light shining in the cave, making the ground at the entrance flicker.

As light and darkness alternated, several people could clearly see footprints left on the soil.

Is there anyone in this cave? Rydar raised his eyes and looked inside. There must be danger, but his desire to explore was getting stronger and stronger.

Do you want to go in and take a look? Or should we observe from outside for a while?

Just as he hesitated, the sound of footsteps came from the cave.

"Damn it, it's time to go on patrol again."

"I don't understand, Nebula. No one comes to this godforsaken place. Why do you have to patrol?"

"Hush! How dare you say that about the guard officer? Aren't you afraid of death?"

"Hehe, if he wants to kill us, it depends on whether the captain allows it. It's not like he's the only one who's good in bed."

It was an ordinary conversation, but it made the people outside feel nervous.

"Back off and hide!" Redal ordered quickly.

The five of them quickly dodged to the side, hiding behind the huge rocks nearby. (End of this chapter)
