68. Gap Rift

Tedes didn't stay in Void City for two days in the end, and the entire army had just finished camping thinking they could rest, but they had to be disassembled and put on the road, if it weren't for the fact that these were the private troops of the Boulder family, I am afraid that they would have already complained a long time ago.

It's just that when they thought that the Peace Council might intervene in the territorial dispute for arbitration, Sean and the others were not so good.

The Peace Council can be called one of the most powerful forces in this world.

They do not belong to any of the powers or countries on the continent, nor do they have the purpose of making a profit like the Chamber of Commerce of the trading capital, and they are solely committed to the peace of the world. It is precisely because of this ideal of the Peace Council that various countries and forces hate this organization, because in the eyes of the people of the entire Miracle Continent, the people of this organization are some crazy people.

But in fact, the powerhouses of this madman organization are also the most powerful of all the forces in the entire continent, and their tentacles are also all over the entire Miracle Continent. However, since experiencing a joint encirclement and suppression by more than a dozen powerful forces, the Peace Council has really reined in a lot, and most of the time it appears as a peace arbiter, specializing in arbitrating disputes over the territories of various countries, in the name of reducing wars in order to protect the peace of the Miracle Continent.

However, Sean is well aware that the Peace Council appears as an arbiter on the surface, but behind the scenes, there is a direct force organization similar to the heretical inquisition of the Church of the Lord of Morninglight, and the name seems to be called the Harmony Scale, with a golden scales and green branches and leaves as a coat of arms. The supreme leader of this directly subordinate armed forces agency is a self-proclaimed peacemaker, and even the original party in the game has not found out what his identity is.

But in the game, there were players who mixed into the organization, and then they cried.

Because the Peace Assembly actually has mandatory terms of service, after joining, it is not allowed to secede, and the peace Assembly is urine. Will there be fewer people offended? Almost at the moment of joining, all other forces on the Miracle Continent were hostile, except for the less combative forces such as the Druid Council and the Book Society, as well as some chambers of commerce that remained neutral.

Especially with the obvious dark forces such as Deaththorn, the Black Army, and the Medusa Chamber of Commerce, it is even more mortal enemies.

In any way, Sean didn't want to offend the organization too soon, because this is a bunch of crazy people who have no emotion to speak of.

There were several games on the game forums where players hated the most hated presence of the game, and the Peace Council has never been on the shortlist, because if it is, then it is the number one without exception.

And Sean, in addition to not wanting to offend this organization, has no intention of cooperating with them at all.

This is simply the existence of whoever touches and who dies. It is even more frightening and terrifying than those cults.

The best way to avoid dealing with this headache-inducing organization is to take advantage of it.

In other words, to get the territorial paperwork in hand.

Therefore, after the final discussion, it was decided that Asuna would come forward to negotiate with the Kingdom of Dabiang, and this document must be obtained no matter what. Otherwise, if the Kingdom of Dabion cheats, the Peace Council will formally intervene in the arbitration at that time. Then there will definitely be a "forced honeymoon period". If that happens. All Sean's actions now will be in vain, and I believe that Asuna will definitely not want to see such a situation, so she will definitely do her best.

As for Sean, he can't intervene in this matter for the time being, and he still has a lot of things to do.

On the fifth day after the negotiations, Sean and Cecilia left Panda with a team. Continue further south from Panda Town, preparing to pass through the Gap Rift and enter the Savage Lands.

This time, Sean didn't go to catch slaves, but wanted to find out if this wild place was exactly the same as the wild place he remembered.

The entourage was accompanied by the twenty-two slave hunters who had more than five years of rich experience in slave hunting. There were also forty bears and forty elite Northland barbarians and Tini who were in charge of guarding the Black Swan Castle in the first place, a total of one hundred and five people. With the exception of the slave hunters, the Bears and the Northlanders were equipped with standard standards - the Bears were equipped with forty shock shields and a heavy hammer; The Northland Barbarians were equipped with a half-body shield, a spear, a bow, two pots of arrows, and three iron spears that could be thrown.

In addition, at the request of Andrei, the leader of the twenty-two slave hunters, a few other things were prepared, including plenty of dry food, drinking water, and something useful in the wilderness. Naturally, all of these things were carried by the bears, and these honest stupid big men didn't care about the weight at all anyway - the shock shield, which seemed too heavy for even the Northland barbarians, was like a toy in their hands, and they even had the strength to lift a heavy hammer to fight.

This is a truly elite force.

But unfortunately, Sean's system doesn't seem to recognize these people as an army, because no matter how Sean names the team, True Eye doesn't have any data about the army, which makes Sean really helpless, so he can only be treated as an adventurous team. However, in this way, as the leader of this team, Sean's passive skill [Desperate Survival] can naturally play a role.

If it was before, this skill would naturally have a great effect, but now the effect of this skill has lost nearly half of its effect. Since Sean was already a lord, how could they be starved of food and water unless something happened that he didn't want to see?

After a simple supply from Panda Town, they set off again, and after nearly half a month of trekking, Sean and the others finally came to the Gorge Rift.

The Gap Rift is a canyon formed by a broken mountain range, but its mountain is extremely steep and precipitous, even orcs known for their endurance can hardly climb such a valley, and the valley is not only one mountain wall is so steep and precipitous, but the whole mountain is like this, the land is red and grassless, and the rocks are almost as sharp as swords, even if you only have to see these sharp stones in the mountain path of the canyon.

It is said that even a bear-man with thick skin and rough flesh cannot resist the cutting of these sharp rocks. Even the slightest touch of your hand will immediately leave a scar. And it's impossible to find any food here, and if you don't bring your own food and water, it's a fool's dream to get through this canyon, which takes about a week to complete.

It is for this reason that the Gap Rift is known as one of the six gateways to the Savage Lands.

From a distance, the mountain road in the Gap Rift Valley looks like a scene of a ray of sky, but when you get closer, you realize that the mountain road is far wider than you think, and at least it is no problem to accommodate hundreds of people walking side by side.

Although Panda is not a rich territory, the land is not particularly barren.

It's just that it was originally a green space with grassland terrain. When it grows in front of the canyon, it is forcibly blocked, as if there is a death line dividing the two worlds of yin and yang.

One step away, but it is two completely different worlds that are barren as blood and verdant as jade.

"Please put it on, sir." Andre handed Sean a hooded cloak. "It's windy and sandy inside, so if you don't wear this. It's easy to get scratched. ”

Sean took the cloak. Then he put it on, and the other slave hunters had already put it on, and at this time he was assisting André in distributing the cloaks to the Northland barbarians. For the Northland barbarians and ordinary people, although the Wild Land is not really a wild place, the climate and environment are indeed relatively harsh, so it naturally needs some protective measures. Even the tribes that were born and lived in the wilderness. Sometimes you also need some thicker clothing for protection.

The only ones who are immune are the Grey Elves, Barbarians, and Orcs.

When everyone had put on the new cloak, André gave the order to advance, and the twenty-one slave catchers immediately dispersed skillfully. Among them, the werewolf and several gray elves that Sean had seen before set off first, and in the blink of an eye, they had disappeared from everyone's sight.

Sean knew that these people were scouts who were in charge of going out to investigate.

There is only one mountain road in the Gap Rift, so if there is an enemy, it is inevitable that it will happen. However, judging from the actions of these werewolves and gray elves, it can be seen that Andre's slave hunting team is indeed very cautious and experienced, no wonder Vivien will keep this team. According to Sean's understanding, very few slave catchers can be active in the wilderness for more than two years, and if they have more than three years of experience, they will generally be hired by other families with slave catching teams, so it is difficult for Sean to imagine that such a slave catching team with more than five years of experience in the wilderness has not been disbanded.

After entering the rift valley for about two or three hundred meters, the wind began to howl like a knife.

The reason why the stones in the mountain road are so sharply weathered has a lot to do with these strong winds. However, it is a more threatening wind for ordinary people, and it is nothing for orcs, and of course it will not be comfortable, and the strength of this wind can be withstood even by the Northland barbarians, but as the mountain road goes deeper, this kind of wind will become stronger, and even the orcs will have to tense their bodies at that time.

Sean and the others lowered the veil on their hoods one after another.

Whether it is a cloak or these black veils, they are not ordinary cloaks and veils, but a special kind of special to cope with the climate and environment of the wild land. The cloak looks ordinary, but it is actually made of a kind of monster's hard skin, which can effectively block the howling wind, and the inside is a kind of beast's pubescence, which will feel comfortable when worn behind you, and the layer between the hard leather and pubescence is specially tanned soft skin, which can effectively absorb the pressure caused by the wind.

The black veil, which is also soaked in special magic potions and spells, will not block the wearer's vision, but it can effectively block the violent wind and sand, even in the environment of sandstorms. And most importantly, this veil can also block the detection and sight of the outside world, which means that as long as the person wearing this cloak does not actively reveal his identity, outsiders will not be able to discover his gender, age, appearance and strength.

This is already a default unspoken rule for slave hunters in the wilderness.

But at this moment, Andrei suddenly raised a hand, and the whole team immediately stopped.

Sean followed Andre's gaze and saw a strange pattern on the ground.

There were two circles, but one large and one small, with a cross drawn in the larger circle. (To be continued.) )
