Chapter 727: Exploring the Defense Line
Cliff, or a geological fault structure.
The thousand-foot-high rock wall extends east and west, like a mountain range, separating the border between Bloody Hills and Death Canyon. In the middle of the entire border, a rift valley with a width of a hundred feet is the ground corridor leading to Bloody Hills.
If it is a flying unit, there is no need to enter the rift corridor step by step. You can directly fly over this boundary-like geological fault and travel between the front and back halves of the courtyard.
The crystal frost of the Snow Ridge Ranch, the dark blue of the Goblin Kingdom, the lush green of the Mechanical Forest, and the gray and white of the Death Canyon.
When you step into the territory of Bloody Hills, the main color of the earth is a brown copper color.
There is more fertile land here than in the front half of the courtyard, and there are also harder rock formations than in the front half of the courtyard.
"How is it? Do you want to go to the rift corridor to take a look?" The dragon flew along the edge of the broken wall. When Mu Hua asked Odysseus, the dragon under his feet trembled obviously.
"No, the Adventurer's Guild has collected information about the corridor. I don't want to get caught in that trap." Odysseus shook his head.
"Mu, if you really want to punish this stupid dragon, let him scout the corridor himself." On Odysseus' shoulder, the mini Tamara flapped her dragon wings, also rejecting Mu Hua's suggestion.
Rift Valley Corridor, a canyon passage connecting the north and south of the courtyard.
There are thousand-foot-high rock walls there, which gradually flatten to the north and extend for thousands of kilometers. At the end is the Shanhai Silver Lake surrounding the area where the Lord of the Courtyard is located.
The canyon itself is nothing. It is a few hundred meters wide and forms a boundary. The road is not rugged.
It's just that in recent years, various human forces have spent a lot of reconnaissance equipment to detect the Rift Valley Corridor. There, countless spider demons are hidden in the rock walls on both sides of the canyon.
Those spider demons are like watchdogs of the Bloody Hills. Not to mention other monsters that may be hidden in the rock wall caves, if you rashly break into the Rift Valley Corridor, you will inevitably fall into the spider demon's siege.
"Punishment? Dryden, do you think you should be punished?" Mu Hua said to the dragon carrying them with a joking smile.
"My Lord, please forgive me. I will never steal the magic core again. I promise. If I find anyone else who dares to steal the magic core in the future, I will report to you as soon as possible." Flying eastward along the broken wall, the dragon Dryden begged for mercy.
In the past, Mu Hua used summoned beasts to control flying horses. After all, the dragon flying in the sky is more conspicuous and it is easy to be attacked by concentrated fire. Using summoned beasts as mounts, you don't have to worry about taking care of them. Just summon them again when they die.
With the continuous improvement of Mu Hua's strength, the enemies he really needs to face are getting stronger and stronger. The dragon summoned beasts delivered by the summoning skills are not good enough. Mu Hua is also willing to train a war horse specially for him to ride.
And the dragon in front of him cannot be regarded as the object that Mu Hua wants to train for the time being. This guy hides the spoils of war privately. Why not hide magic stones and magic cores?
There are more evil dragons in the family these years, and Mu Hua is no longer as careful about them as in the early years. In order to expand the dragon tooth soldiers and forge high-end weapons and equipment, Mu Hua also wants to dismantle a few evil dragons for parts.
Under various circumstances, this evil dragon was dragged out by Mu Hua. If it is not dead, he will make up for it. If it is dead, he will cut it into pieces, all as a warning to those dragons in the family who like to hide resources randomly.
"Don't dare to kill you. Don't think that I won't kill you because I have invested resources in you. You are all treasures. It's not a loss to kill them after you are fattened up. Let's go, go up."
Mu Hua said coldly, and Tamara on Odysseus's shoulder shrank her neck. The dragons are naturally strong and are not a group race. It is common for evil dragons to kill for money.
Unlike the dragons in charge of Friday, Tamara is also one of Mu Hua's friends. She knows that Mu Hua is really thinking about getting some evil dragons and fattening them up to kill them.
"Ah~!" Following Mu Hua's instructions, the evil dragon Dryden was a little proud in his heart. He was Friday's follower, and he still thought that Mu Hua was reluctant to kill him.
Flying over the broken wall, Dryden spread his dragon power and spread his wings to invade the bloody hills.
It was called the hills, but it was an endless plain terrain with mottled forests. Looking down from the sky, there were almost no peaks on the ground.
The branches of Shanhai Silver Lake spread out a tortuous water system on the bloody hills. As the evil dragon took off, some winged demons fled in panic near the broken wall.
On the vast land, you can still see the strong light of magic bursts from time to time. Those are some demons fighting in the wilderness.
The monsters in the bloody hills are mainly demons, but the demons here don't seem to be actively preparing for war against humans. There are fights everywhere, and demons are hunting each other.
"Roar~! Roar~!" The evil dragon in the sky flew along the edge of the broken wall. There were demons fleeing on the ground, and there were demons roaring in protest.
It was a wild scene, and there were almost no buildings on the Bloody Hills. Except for the underground demon palace, there were a few castles built on the surface. There were demon nests with magma surging around the castles, and most of their main space was underground.
It was much more difficult to clean up the demons entrenched in the Bloody Hills than in the several demon areas in the first half.
"There are many winged demons here. Even if they are not winged demons, it is not difficult for them to jump down the fault. It seems that we must build an air defense line." Flying along the border between the Bloody Hills and the Death Canyon, Mu Hua frowned because of the flat terrain below.
"The Rift Valley Corridor must be cleared and blocked, and the entire border must be warned. At least a warning system must be built a hundred kilometers away." Odysseus said.
"Let Thursday take its floating monsters to patrol the defense line, but we need to catch more floating monsters. Their growth and energy storage are inseparable from the abyss. If it involves a high-intensity protracted war, the two teams will have to rotate defense." Mu Hua thought.
The floating monster becoming Leviathan cannot be said to be evolution. It is a more complicated transition than evolution. Thursday has completed the transition of Leviathan. Whether it is the courtyard or the human world, it has no problem wandering outside for a long time.
But let's not talk about growth. Similar to charging, if the floating monster wants to maintain its combat power, it must return to the abyss to swallow clouds and spit out mist. Otherwise, it is not that they cannot absorb enough magic power, but that they will consume a lot of power when they move.
If you don't prepare magic stones, magic cores, demon gold coins and other things for them to swallow, they will fight for an hour and lie down for a year or two. Using them to fight a tug-of-war with the demons is simply not enough, which is basically equivalent to giving food to the demons.
"The border is more than 5,000 kilometers long from east to west. The demons are cunning. With the number of floating monsters under Thursday's command, they will definitely not be able to block it. In addition, the dragon group under Friday's command is unstable."
"We really don't need help from other forces? If we block the Bloody Hills, the Adventurer's Guild also has the obligation to assist."
"Abigail, Tennyson, the Adventurer's Guild, they should all be able to send some joint defense fleets." Odysseus said.
"The Adventurer's Guild's obligations are not so easy to accept. After fulfilling their obligations, they naturally have to take some power. The first half can be given, and the second half must be fully controlled by us." Mu Hua frowned.
Abigail is an old ghost god. Her power has now developed steadily. She sent a fleet to Mu Hua at the beginning, but Mu Hua was just fighting with the monsters at that time. The fleet stayed here purely to waste energy and accumulate rust, so Mu Hua asked her to pull it back.
In the Kingdom of Galaposo, Odysseus should be confident that he can get a fleet from Tennyson, but he is a hoarder, and that guy is arguing about the premium standard.
The Adventurer's Guild can definitely complete the border blockade, but according to how much they invest, they will inevitably obtain corresponding benefits and power here.
If the Adventurer's Guild contributes more here, and finally really pushes the Lord of the Courtyard, it is possible that they will control the core of the courtyard.
The Adventurer's Guild has many obligations, but obligations are always linked to power, and power is often placed before obligations.
There is nothing to say about their spirit of public welfare and dedication, but if you let them contribute and then argue with them about power, it is a bit taken for granted.
Mu Hua resisted other forces from intervening in the defense blockade of Bloody Hills. Odysseus, who has already entered the core of Mu Hua's power, also knows his own advantages.
He did not object to Mu Hua's somewhat greedy attitude, and the two of them could not help but focus their attention on the floating monsters in the abyss.
Regardless of whether they were captured or abducted, it was not impossible to expand the number of abyss monsters in his own family.
However, the only thing that worried Odysseus at the moment was that if he created a large Leviathan tribe, then as the seventh Leviathan king, he would be embarrassed. (End of this chapter)
