Life is unpredictable.
The most unpredictable thing is that the passing of life is unpredictable. While ignoring the lives of others, you are also being ignored by others.
This phenomenon is particularly serious among the dark wizard community.
…
After leaving Watsonburg, the two men hid all the way to the southwest. In less than a day, they had covered a distance that would take an ordinary army half a month.
At this time, they had basically walked out of the human territory and came deeper into the most famous southwestern highlands. Dolai saw the new city under construction and the army. These were the territories conquered in previous years.
The further west you go, the higher the terrain becomes. Soon, as the altitude increases, the ground rises dramatically, from a few hundred meters to a height of two to three thousand meters. In this geographical location, only some cold-resistant and water-resistant plants can survive, and the most common is grass.
Not all the Southwestern Highlands are geographically high. There are some places, such as the last battle fought by the military, where the ghosts eliminated were at a low point.
After passing the last place with people, Old Poison took Dolai to a higher altitude. At this time, the situation ahead began to become dangerous.
Places without people are always full of endless dangers. Even for level six masters like them, they cannot go to certain places at will.
Soon, they came to a huge ridge.
The ridge is very high. Looking down from the sky, it looks like a stingray in the sky, dividing the entire highland.
To the east is ordinary high ground, while to the west is a valley, and behind it are higher high ground.
At a glance, starting from behind the ridge, some mountains become higher and higher, turning into wasteland and then into endless snow-capped mountains.
Within a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers, there was deathly silence and desolation.
Mountains, rivers, together form an extremely grand and spectacular scene. Nature is truly beautiful.
Seeing this scene, my heart feels broadened.
This place is completely deserted. As far as the eye can see, all areas are not controlled by humans. It is a true no-man's land.
At this time, Tom came out of his invisible state, stood at a very high altitude and looked down, saying, "Go over this ridge, do you see the green area over there? That's where the ruins are. There are actually some small gathering places of dark wizards around the ruins, but they are not very significant."
Dolai was a little surprised. Are all the dark wizards in such a miserable state? Why would they come to such a place where no one even shits?
He turned his gaze over there, looking down from the sky. Under the desolate sky, he indeed saw a large area of green over there, which formed a sharp contrast with the desolate scene around it. There was also a huge lake with water and plants. The dark wizards around should be doing well.
Dole nodded, and the two of them quickly descended toward the ridge.
On the high mountain ridge, the two people were like two black dots, floating down without causing any ripples.
They soon entered the oasis.
The oasis is at a lower place, with an altitude of more than 2,000 meters lower than the ridge. All around the lake, various tenacious plants survive, such as alpine pine, cypress, poplar, etc., and the whole place is full of vitality.
There are indeed signs of human activity around the lake, but they are not obvious.
To the west of the lake is a canyon. Ahead of the canyon is a small hill that is shrouded in mist all year round. At this time, the two men hid themselves and walked silently towards the canyon.
Dolai did not release his mental power, but used his sensory ability to observe his surroundings. This place was indeed full of dangers. The seemingly harmless lake and the wasteland were filled with countless terrifying creatures, poisonous insects, and microorganisms. Even the air was filled with a strange smell.
There was an aura of death looming over the distant mountains, extending all the way to the lake, leading to this situation.
The two men followed the edge of the canyon and went up, and soon they reached the edge of the Misty Mountains. Standing on a huge rock, Tom appeared, and Dole saw this and also appeared.
Tom looked up at the canyon and said, "This is the entrance. The invisible place above is the ruins. There is fog here all year round, and the fog never dissipates. The ruins are inside the fog."
Dolai glanced around and felt a slight chill in his heart. At this moment, he sensed an inexplicable aura around him, and he became more cautious. At the same time, he saw the situation on the top of the mountain and frowned slightly.
Because of the altitude, the plateau area has strong winds all year round, so there is no fog. The strong wind cannot blow away the fog. It is conceivable that there must be a magic array inside to cause this situation. He thought for a while and said, "Don't rush in. I want to observe the situation nearby. I am very interested in magic arrays."
Tom nodded and said, "Don't worry, we are here anyway, but there are other people hiding around, so you have to be careful."
Dole nodded, he had sensed it.
He thought for a moment and said, "In which direction is the secret school you mentioned?"
Tom pointed to the lake in the distance and said, "They are right by the lake. The leader is a fifth-level black wizard named Guluda. He specializes in mental magic. He doesn't dare to come in here. In fact, it is precisely because of the existence of this relic that he can open a secret school. It's called a school, but it's actually just a slightly interesting black market."
Dolai was stunned. Is this possible?
He raised his own question again, "If you say it is full of poisonous insects and poisons, as a spiritual wizard, why doesn't he try to control the poisonous insects here?"
The old poisonous creature's mouth twitched, "I can't do it, so how can he, a spiritual wizard, do it? Unless there is someone who can do what both of us can do at the same time, like you."
He was really envious of Dolai, a pharmacist with strong mental power. He was simply a freak.
In the past, when they were not strong enough, everyone could still think of bullying them. But now, all the Xuan Corpse Bugs have been upgraded to level six, and have practiced a dark-type meditation method that looks very extraordinary. They have already gained a place in the underground wizard world.
Dolai touched his nose and did not refute. He said, "Be careful. I will go investigate first."
The two then separated.
This mountain is not small. It is more than ten kilometers from here to the top of the mountain. Going around the foot of the mountain, it is about four hundred kilometers wide. It is very large, not to mention the special areas such as valleys and gullies around it. If you take a detour, it will be even longer.
There are trees at the foot of the mountain, but only bushes remain in the middle of the mountain, and it turns into grass as you go up. The mountain encompasses the scenes of all four seasons.
When we reached the grassy area, we saw a thick layer of fog covering the mountain, which lasted all year round. It was obvious that something serious was going on inside.
After Dolai sensed that there were people hiding around him, he quietly disappeared. He wanted to see what the wizard formation here was like. If it was of average strength, he could still give it a try. If it was very strong, he would have to consider the issue of retreat.
Following the forest all the way up, Dolai opened up all his sensing powers and did not use mental scanning. He soon encountered several brown bears, gray wolves and the like, as well as a large number of various rodents and rabbits. Moreover, due to the environment, these creatures became very powerful, and some even underwent mutations.
