Now it doesn’t take them that long to travel from Black Soil Town to the valley.

On the one hand, they are in good spirits and have plenty of physical strength;

On the other hand, all the monsters and wild beasts along the way had been cleared out, and everyone's main focus was on hurrying on the journey; it took them only four and a half days to get close to the strange valley again.

"Sir, the place ahead is where the great battle took place that night."

Rydar pointed to the woods ahead and said.

When everyone looked over, they saw a forest not far away that was as big as half a football field and was in a mess.

Tall trees were broken in half, with trunks, branches, and leaves falling and flying everywhere.

The low grass and trees seemed to have been hit by a hurricane, falling here and there, and some were even uprooted;

There were also fresh holes everywhere on the ground, which were obviously bombed out by powerful fighting skills.

Just from this battlefield, it was enough to know how fierce the battle between Redar and the monsters was that night! Those who didn't know Redar's true strength, such as Kurami and Grado, had a clear understanding of the combat power of the commander of Wubei Territory after seeing this scene.

At the same time, they also had a more direct understanding of the danger of this operation.

Not only them, but also Ronin.

Fortunately, he had already distributed the more than 700 points of energy essence he had accumulated while on the road.

He first needed a warrior who could stand on his own, and according to Redar, it would take him about a year before he could barely fight against an average gold-level warrior.

In order to deal with the possibility of gold-level enemies, in addition to the sixth-level spell scroll, Roning also added all 500 energy essence points to Ridar, increasing his cultivation progress to 583/1500.

He used all of his remaining 253 energy points on Elrond.

In this battle, Elrond is naturally a supporting role. He only needs to use purification and healing spells on the injured personnel, or use light binding and fatigue aura when the battle situation is not good.

Leave the frontal battle to Redar, McKen and others.

"Everyone, just rest here. After lunch, recover your strength. Then we'll go over and observe the terrain in the afternoon."

Roning was not in a hurry to attack. He first observed closely to see if there was any valuable information.

"Elrond, be careful to maintain the state of your magic."

"Don't worry, sir. My magic power has been refined to full strength and I can fight at any time."

During the journey, even if they encountered sporadic magical beasts, they were all handed over to the knights to deal with. Apart from the fact that Elrond had consumed a lot of physical strength due to the hassle of traveling, he did not suffer any loss of magic power.

Everyone began to rest on the spot.

In the past few days, they could roast the meat of the monsters they killed, but as they got closer to the target point, in order to avoid exposing their whereabouts by making a fire, they could only take out the dry food in the packages to fill their stomachs.

Luo Ning took out clean water and fruit from his space ring and distributed them.

He was not worried about being exposed. If anyone asked him how he could take something out of thin air, he would just say it was magic.

But everyone was just curious, and no one asked.

"This is a spell scroll for healing."

"Although you four junior knights cannot use it, you still have a share. It can be regarded as a reward for everyone's action."

Roning took out twelve spell scrolls and handed them to Tom, asking him to distribute them to everyone.

At the same time, he took out the spell scrolls of Wind Tentacles, Purification, Holy Shield, Pyroblast, and Speed, and gave them to other people to use.

Of course, these scrolls were valuable, so he did not plan to give them to his subordinates. After the operation, if there were any left, he would take them back.

Spell scrolls are a bit like weapons and ammunition. Roning took out so many of them at once, and this battle was fought very well.

Apart from anything else, the market price of a Pyroblast spell scroll was as high as 70 or 80 gold coins, and Roning took out five of them at once, not to mention that there were more advanced spell scrolls! In the eyes of his subordinates, their lord was just a local rich man.

Especially Joffrey, it was good enough for him not to be suspected by the other party when he followed Lei Sen, let alone let the other party give him spell scrolls before the battle.

Roning had no intention of showing off his wealth; he just wanted to be safe and didn't want anything unexpected to happen to these subordinates whom he valued.

After eating, drinking and resting, everyone set out again.

The closer they got to the valley, the quieter the sounds of their conversations became, until gradually only the sound of light footsteps remained.

Soon, they reached the peak behind the strange valley.

The last time that Riedal and his companions came here was at night. They only saw a silver-white line in the distance and guessed based on the sound that it was the sea.

Now it was daytime, and they could clearly see the scenery in the distance. It was indeed the sea.

“How spectacular!”

Jenny's eyes flickered. She had come across knowledge about the sea in only a few books in her collection, but had never seen it with her own eyes.

Now, just by looking from a distance, she could feel the grandeur described in the book.

Except for Kurami who had been to Pointe City and seen the sea, everyone else had more or less the same feeling as Jenny.

Luo Ning had seen the sea before, so he didn't have much to sigh about.

At this moment, another idea came to his mind - the outlet to the sea.

Wubei Territory is surrounded by the sea on the east and north. Is there any place suitable for building a port? Although there seems to be no land to the east of this continent, you can reach the Principality of Vera by following the east coast of Wubei Territory to the south; go north and then west to the north of the Howling Sea, and then go south into the Howling Sea. The east side of the route can reach the capital, and the west side is the territory of the Earl of Howling Island. Going all the way south, you can reach the Pointed City in Wushan Territory.

If the trade in Wubei Territory develops in the future, it seems that sea and land transportation will be more convenient than land transportation.

The key is that Wubeiling needs to have its own port.

However, it is not possible to build a port along the sea. It is also necessary to find a suitable location, such as the depth of the water, the seabed topography, etc.

At the same time, if you really want to build a port, you will definitely need professional people, such as experienced captains, sailors, and harbor construction craftsmen.

It is impossible for the civilians or serfs in Wubei Territory to accomplish such a life.

It seems that Roning will have to go to Pointe City or other port cities to find talents who are familiar with this knowledge.

But that's all in the past. Building a port is not something that can be completed in a few months. It requires enormous manpower, financial resources and material resources.

Roning can make a plan first and then consider how to move forward.

Retracting his thoughts, he carefully surveyed the valley, but because his location was too far from the bottom of the valley, he did not find anything unusual.

They had no choice but to use the trees as cover and move down the mountainside.

The closer you get to the bottom of the valley, the easier it is to see some dead bones, both human and animal.

I don’t know what fierce battle took place here.

"It seems that there is no one patrolling?"

Roning looked around and saw no one in sight. He used the Wind of Detection to confirm the current situation again.

Within hundreds of meters around them, there was no trace of anyone other than themselves.

"Are they all hiding in the cave?"

Luo Ning frowned slightly and looked at the cave at the bottom of the hillside diagonally opposite. It would be too abrupt and rash to just barge in like that.

"McCann, Joffrey, you take Tom and the other three to watch from behind, and the rest of you disperse."

Luo Ning whispered, "Everyone hide yourselves and observe for a while." (End of this chapter)
