Chapter 1714: Gorgon Devil in the Black Pine Forest

Before I explored the basic situation of the Dragon empire, Hao Ren had heard the name of the Changfeng Mountain Range. This is a very short mountain range. It is located in the southern part of the empire near the black pine forest and the cliff sea. The so-called cliff sea is the "world rift". "A narrow sea that is connected to it is also the natural boundary of the empire, and the Changfeng Mountains start from the cliff coast, and gradually extend to the inner inland of the empire for a hundred kilometers, becoming part of the southern hills.

This short mountain range is not eye-catching in the empire, but it is notorious because it is one of the most prominent dividing lines of the black pine forest. The south side of the mountain range is a vast and rich population area, and the north side is In the endless black pine forest, the giant trees in the black pine forest that have been extremely vigorous have spread to the half-waist of the northern foot of the Changfeng Mountains and have stopped on a dividing line called the “razor front”.

The elves who were fascinated by the mysteries of the black pine forest were curious about this. They extracted some of the stones on the north side of the Changfeng Mountains to study them. They found that these stones had the magical power to interfere with the life cycle of the black pine forest, so they wrote on these stones. Rune, made of a special rune stone brick Greenway Road green forest barrier inlaid rune stone bricks are like this.

But that is already something hundreds of years ago.

Because the elves have exploited a large number of rocks to make runes, and the instability of the black pine forest itself, the “razor front” of the Changfeng Mountains has undergone two large-scale displacements in these hundreds of years. The mountain itself has undergone several serious collapses under the erosion of the black pine forest, and the end result is that this mountain has become an insurmountable natural danger for ordinary people. Even those elves who can stand in the mountains are not willing to walk. In addition, the black pine forest connected to the north of the Changfeng Mountains belongs to the “lost forest land”, that is, there is no forest road, and the area where ordinary people enter will be lost. Therefore, no one will ever try to enter the forest from there, and the Imperial Corps naturally There is no sentry post there.

In fact, in addition to the entrances and exits of the forests that have been explored around the Black Pine Forest, the Imperial Corps has always been undefended for this vast forest except for walking along the forest roads and roads, from other places. Entering the jungle is only a dead end, and there is absolutely no need for fortification.

So when I heard Kem’s words, Hao Ren was quite curious: “Over the Changfeng Mountains? How did you turn over? Are you afraid of being trapped in a lost forest?”

"For the sword-breaking knight, the Changfeng Mountains are nothing," Kem smiled. "Go straight up the mountain, then jump in the direction of the forest, and be trapped in the lost woodland...you don't Do you know that the Broken Sword Knight will not get lost in the Black Pine Forest."

Upon hearing this, Hao Ren exchanged his eyes involuntarily.

"What you mean is that the sword-breaking knight can walk freely in the black pine forest, yes," Vivienne looked at Kem's eyes. "That is... you are not here to see ordinary people." Those who are in the 'forest roads', but those who are really... roads."

Kem nodded slightly, and when he looked at Hao Ren and his party, his eyes changed. "I thought you would know about it. After all... you are like me, you can come into this lost kingdom."

Leah blinked and looked at Kem with interest: "Is it your name to call this lost kingdom, interesting... It seems that you are not affected by the various illusions of the black pine forest."

Hao Ren took the remark: "We have a few temples from a hidden temple. There are some special ways to walk freely in the black pine forest. But because we don't ask the world, we don't know much about the outside world, and we don't know clearly. The sword knight's business. In fact, the name of the broken sword knight is heard from these friends."

As he spoke, he pointed to Avina and Charlemagne standing next to him.

"World Tree Temple," Charlemagne nodded. "The names of their organizations. My sister and my soldiers were rescued by them, so they went."

"I haven't heard of it," Kem shook his head. "But it doesn't matter. There are always some secrets in the world that we don't know, especially when the whole world is divided into two. Anyway, you saved me. A life, I will help you as much as possible if you don't violate my knight vows."

Of course, I need help. The intelligence that a sword-breaking knight can tell is the greatest help. But Hao Ren is not good at saying it right now, so he asked about Kaim’s experience after entering the black pine forest: "We didn't say it beforehand. What happened to you and your knight companions? Have you been attacked after entering the black pine forest?"

According to Cam, he entered the black pine forest with several sword-breaking knights. After that, they were equal to the pursuit of the Imperial Corps and the Black Sword Knights, but now he is alone and seriously injured. In the ruins of the "Lost Kingdom", the knight companions disappeared, and only part of the scars on Kem's armor were traces of the black steel mechanical sword cutting, and the other scars were obviously not injured by the sword. These all illustrate one thing: Kem and his comrades were attacked by something else after entering the black pine forest.

After he heard Hao Ren’s question, Kem hesitated, but still said: “We met the Gorgon demon.”

"Gorgon Devil?!" Charlemagne was shocked. "In this black pine forest?"

"Yes, although it's hard to understand, it's true," Kem sighed softly. "We originally planned to go straight through the middle of the forest and head to the north, but suddenly met the Gorgon demon near the northern end of the Black Pine Forest. The attack, and the lord-level Gorgon I and my comrades were hit hard by the fall of defense. In the end, I was alone and escaped, but after returning here, I lost consciousness and waited. Wake up... I saw you."

Hao Ren looked at each other, Lily curiously asked the next Avona: "The Gorgon demon... What is it?"

"You don't even know this?" Elvina squinted in surprise, but still explained, "At the northern end of the world, there is a space passage that traverses the rift in the world. We call the large area behind that space channel. As the abyss of Gorgon. The Gorgon Abyss is a broken wasteland burned by flames. There are countless broken and twisted boulders, and the Gorgon demon is the monster that lives in the waste soil. They are cast in steel and rock. The body is covered with thunder and energy flames, even if the lowest level of Gorgon demon has a combat power above the hundred soldiers."

"But although the passage of the Gorgon abyss is open, only a part of the demons will pass through the passage into the world, which is a blessing in misfortune," Charlemagne continued. "In addition, although the entrance and exit of the Gorgon abyss lie in The world is cracked, but not in the middle. Most of it is located in the territory of the Dragon Empire. There is only a small piece of the White City Federation that extends to the Eastern Hemisphere, so the pressure of the Dragon Empire is several times greater than ours. On the federal side of the White City, Iso led the establishment of the 'Sentinel Fortress' to monitor the Gorgon abyss and resist the Gorgons who occasionally ran out of the space channel, and on the side of the Dragon Empire..."

After waiting for Charlemagne to finish, Kaim took the initiative to say: "It is the fortress group established by the Northern Army Corps, and the sword-breaking knights led by His Royal Highness Princess are also assisting the garrison. In fact, the final trial of becoming a sword-breaking knight is bare-handed. Fighting a low-level Gorgon demon, only after passing this test, can we graduate from the trainee knight and get the qualification to walk and perform tasks throughout the country."

Hao Ren nodded slightly and compared it with the information scanned by the previous detection probe. The previous detection probe did find an unstable spatial fault at the northern end of Lahren, but this planet was seen from the inside out. Divine cover and transformation, unstable spatial faults and special energy bursts abound, he did not care, but did not expect that the space distortion point in the north of the planet turned out to be such a special place.

But when he mentioned the northern part of the empire, he suddenly remembered something: "Wait, Kemm, you said that the Northern Army of the Empire is responsible for guarding the abyss of Gorgon? Is that the six northern provinces? They are now with Kang. Princess Stans began to go south, what about the fortress in the north?"

Lily also reacted at once: "Is it because the fortress in the north is left unattended, so the Gorgon devil ran out and even ran into the black pine forest?"

Hao Ren nodded while listening to Lily’s words, and thought that if this was the case, the sudden reversal of Princess Constance would really be a big hole for everyone. The Imperial Northern Army was used to guard Gore. The tribute to the abyss, now with the "rebellion army" led by the princess to go south to fight the Imperial Corps and the Black Sword Knights, then what about the demon ran out of the abyss? Let them sweep the world?

No... The Princess Your Royal Highness should not do this stupid thing.

Sure enough, Kim shook his head immediately: "His Royal Highness will not be so reckless, she has already taken into account the defense of the northern fortress group when mobilizing the Northern Army. As far as I know, she has made some special means The Gorgon abyss has temporarily stabilized, at least for one to two years..."

“Can she stabilize the abyss of Gorgon?” Charlemagne’s expression was like hearing the Arabian Nights, but a broken sword knight was so convinced that he did not believe it. “Well, even if it’s true. The Gorgon demon that appeared in the black pine forest... is not a good sign."

Kem is obviously worried about this. He frowned and squatted in the same place: "So I have to go to the north as soon as possible to find out what happened... but there is a lord level in the forest to the north. Gorgon, and I don’t know if there will be more demons lurking in this forest, it’s..."

"Then let's go together," Hao Ren suddenly interrupted Kem's words with a smile. "You take us on the road you planned, and I can see what the Gorgon demon looks like."

Kem was taken aback and looked at Hao Ren with his eyes up and down: "What do you say? You know that there is a Gorgon demon there, but you have to go to 'look'?"

"There is no way," Vivian sighed. "Because we have to go to the north."
