Chapter 686: Descending on the Green Lake
Before leaving, Sharoman summoned the apprentices of Cesar and Nana again and told Cesara an important thing.
The 'Chain of Balance' that he came into contact with during this period of time was indeed the highest circle within the association that dominated everything, but the people he came into contact with were only representatives of a dozen core forces, and the person in charge. I haven't participated in a single meeting involving the core members of the Chain of Balance.
In about half a year, the association will hold a summit in the Eastern Regions to reach a new strategic plan on the issue of the Heavenly Mountains, the Divine Vein Network Project, the invasion of the Outer Regions, and the scourge of demons and the sea of blood. At this summit, all the top calamity gods will attend, and Sharoman will naturally not be an exception. This kind of grand event that can open your eyes and make friends, the two disciples of Cesara and Nana naturally cannot be absent.
After explaining the important information, Cesar stayed in the Society's lair for a few more days, and finally waited for Emma and her party. After the handover was completed, under the eyes of Milk and others, Cesar took a group of pets to the junction of the Central Regions and the Western Regions, and began his journey to become a god.
......
Although he had been in contact with the veins of the world and the divine domain before, when it was finally his turn to build a divine domain of his own with his own hands, instead of appropriating the fruits of other people's labor, Cesar was extremely apprehensive in his heart. Before arriving in Green Lake City, he had been tossing and turning, sleepless all night, secretly wondering what his territory would look like, and his emotions were very high.
But when Cesar's family drove to the Lord's Mansion after the aircraft landed in 'Green Lake City', his heart was deeply hurt by what they saw on both sides of the road.
If the scale and prosperity of the 'Steel Frame City' is ten years behind the top metropolis such as 'Balance City', but it is still full of towering black and white forests and endless spaceships between buildings, then the Black Carpet City is obviously 20 years behind, and it is a third-tier city that does not enter the stream, although the scale is small. But it also has its own characteristics. Since the crash of the super battleship, the development situation has been booming.
Then it was Cesar's turn to choose the 'Green Lake City', which was obviously the ancient decay of the last century. The concrete road is narrow and dilapidated, the pavement is dilapidated, and there are even obvious cracks, and there is no one to maintain it. It's not just steam-style trucks on the road that have been phased out. It is also a modern style of retro and environmental protection with ox carts and donkey carts that defecate anywhere. Both sides of the road are lined with low, old-fashioned buildings that look like slums. There were few passers-by on the streets, and there were no vendors on the streets, but weathered cow dung and dog droppings, which could be seen everywhere.
Well, there is also a group of bear children who run away without wiping their butts and lifting their pants after pooping, which is really remote and backward, ignorant + unhygienic!
"Have we traveled back a hundred years? How could it be so decaying?, and the impoverished areas of Rezhou were no more than that, right?!" Camilla asked with a look of disappointment as she pushed Cesar's shoulder.
"That's right, this is it. ”
Cesar's face was not good-looking, no wonder the association was so generous, the entire city was given to him along with the sub-divine veins, and even the Marentha Empire did not object, but instead granted himself the title of 'viscount', and packaged and gave away the land within a radius of thousands of miles. They have all become their own 'viscounts'.
It turns out that this place is too remote and too backward!
The location of Green Lake City itself is not good, it is at the junction of the three main worlds of the Central Regions, the Western Regions, and the Northern Regions. Just like the dead end in Go, both directions are blocked, and you can only expand in the opposite direction to the middle domain, with low development potential, but you have to suffer from the interference and suppression of the other two main veins.
In addition, this top-level secondary vein itself is a 'death attribute'. However, it is under the jurisdiction of the Central Underworld, which does not belong to the 'supreme death power' in the Middle Domain. The Central Underworld controlled all the True Death Divine Veins in the Central Domain, forming a huge 'Hades' with four top-notch disaster-level 'Death Reapers'. Without the support of the powerful Death True Divine Vein, the future of this remote sub-divine vein became even more dim.
Third. Green Lake City itself belongs to the territory of the Marenza Empire, but it has been occupied by the Northern Regions, and then it was strongly occupied by the Association, and the ownership has been unknown for a long time. In addition, it is not a transportation hub itself, and there is no economic pillar industry. Unable to make any money, the North, the Guild, and the Empire all stopped building the Green Lake City, leaving it in ruins and decay, turning it into a trivial area used to ease conflict.
Fourth, the name of Green Lake City comes from a 'super poisonous lake' not far from the city, which is also the core area of this 'plague attribute top sub-god'. Because of the terrifying attribute of 'plague + death', the environment is harsh for thousands of miles, poisonous weeds are everywhere, and fierce beasts are rampant, ordinary people do not live more than fifty, and only a very small number of intelligent races are willing to stay and live here.
For a combination of reasons, despite its location on the border of the Middle Regions, Green Lake City has remained in the last century. Cities are ruined, sparsely populated, and lifeless, while the suburbs are not only infested with ferocious beasts and miasma, but also a large number of corpses that have died in the wilderness after nightfall, turning into undead spirits and wandering around.
From the map, the area with the 'Green Lake' as the core radiating thousands of kilometers is basically deserted, with only two dilapidated paths, leading to the Marensa Empire in the west and the nearest city in the Middle Regions. Finally, there is an ancient freight railway, which goes directly to the Northern Regions, which was originally built by the Northern Underworld to transport death-attribute herbs and ores from Green Lake City, but now it lacks maintenance, and it is too backward, and it has been abandoned for four or five years.
There are no markings on the map except for a lake, punctuation of a city, two bad roads, and a railroad. There are no large-scale small towns nearby, and they are all blank.
"It's really biased!"
After visiting the dilapidated Lord's Mansion, Cesar gave up the idea of moving in directly, and released two thousand zombie laborers from the Nest of Food, as well as a dozen Demon Fly Niangbao foremen who barely reached the average level of discipline, and asked them to repair the house, and he drove Nana and Camilla and others out of the city to observe the situation of the sub-divine veins.
The Magic Guided Car from the Association is quite powerful, and in addition to the turbo acceleration function, there are also modes such as magnetic levitation, as well as diving. Green Lake City is so desolate that he can't even see a single airship that is slowly being eliminated, so Cesara doesn't have to care about any 'air driving rules' at all, and he is quite willful and does all kinds of difficult actions in the sky.
Soon they were out of the city and flying over the desolate suburbs, where they saw a calm, dark green lake in the distance. There are many names for 'Green Lake', such as 'Pool of Poison', 'Plague Swamp', 'Cauldron of Death', etc.
From afar, it is a calm and waveless dark green lake, green and black, as far as the eye can see, like a dull piece of malachite. But when Cesar lowered the car to the ground, he realized that the view was just a trick, and this 'green lake' was like a third-rate witch adding countless disgusting poisonous substances to the cauldron and mixing it with a viscous liquid. They are constantly churning and bubbling, emitting wisps of green smoke, and the slime that splatters out makes the stones corrode and is daunting.
"It's disgusting, like a big pot of snot filled with green dye!" Camilla said, leaning against the glass window, with a look of disgust.
"What a picture!" Elsa nodded approvingly, sitting in the passenger seat.
"I regret it at last!" Looking at the endless green lake, the dense churning bubbles, Cesar rubbed his temples in pain, this move was wrong.
Turning up the speed to the fastest, Cesar drove around the Green Lake for some distance, roughly figuring out the structure of his territory. The Green Lake is a ribbon-shaped lake with a capital 'L' that is filled with a highly poisonous plague liquid. After the exploration just now, he found that the lake water contained a wealth of 'poison and death' energy, and in addition, every drop of dark green liquid contained a large number of various special plague pathogens.
This kind of plague is not as simple as bacteria or viruses, they have been infected by the power of escaping gods for a long time, and their form has mutated to surpass ordinary bacteria and viruses, and it is somewhat similar to the demonic virus, and has become a very strange life, with terrible pathogenicity, mutation, and immortality. The undead near the Green Lake are generally infected by these plagues, and they have mutated on the basis of low-level zombies, with plague attributes, and their appearance is biased towards the style of carrion, which is very unappetizing. (To be continued.) )
PS: The bitter Cesara has been in trouble for so long, and finally ushered in his first divine domain, is this the rhythm of buying a house to marry Bai Fumei and walking to the peak of life?
