Chapter 321 Starry Night Mountain Range
Starry Night City, named after the Starry Night Mountains in its territory, is the last medium-sized city in the western border of the Sun and Moon Empire.
The Xingye Mountains, the destination of Yechen and others, was located in the southwest of Xingye City, on the coast, and on the other side was a cliff that was thousands of feet high.
At the same time, the Xingye Mountains are also the only land soul beast settlement on the entire continent that is near the sea.
At dusk, in a restaurant near the mountains in Xingye City, Ye Chen and his four were sitting on the dining room in the corner, with only a pot of tea on the table.
Although this place belongs to Xingye City, it is still far from the real human settlement. This restaurant is also specially set up for those who are exploring the Xingye Mountains.
"I finally arrived here. What should I do next?" Xu Tianchen sighed lightly and sought Ye Chen's opinion.
Although they bypassed the crowds, both Ye Chen and Xu Tianchen knew that Xu Tianran would definitely be staring at him.
Ye Chen looked at the guests in the restaurant and said calmly: "Wait."
"Wait? What are you waiting for?" Xu Tianchen was a little confused.
Ye Chen chuckled and shook his head, without explanation.
Now that he doesn't know anything, he will probably encounter an unsolvable crisis, so he needs to confirm some news first.
No matter which world you go to, there is always a constant truth. Restaurants are always the most well-informed places.
Such a terrifying death forest appeared in his own territory, and it was impossible for him to not attract the official attention.
The reason why the news has not spread in Ming Dynasty is only one reason, which can be covered up.
However, this is the closest place to the Starry Night Forest. As long as you pay attention to it, you will definitely get what you want.
After all, Xu Tianchen is just a prince who has been in Mingdu for many years. Although he has done his best, his experience in this area is definitely not as good as Ye Chen.
Liu Yaxuan is different. Her family's status in Mingdu can only be considered medium, so she has been in contact with people from all walks of life since she was a child, and she still understands these common sense.
As for Yue, this girl has been immersed in her own world, and it is difficult for outsiders to see what she is thinking.
It was just the meal time, but there were not many guests in the restaurant, only less than ten, and everyone was taciturn and left after eating in a hurry. No one discussed the matter of the Starry Night Mountains.
Ye Chen frowned slightly, but even so, he was not without gains.
The lack of people means that the situation in the Starry Night Mountains has spread among these explorers' circles. And judging from the expressions of these people, it is not daring to discuss them, perhaps because the official ban was issued.
Although these explorers were all outlaws, they certainly did not dare to go against the officials of the Sun and Moon Empire.
As for the purpose of the official doing this, it may be that it is fear of causing panic among the people, or it may be for some other purpose.
But no matter which situation is, in short, the situation in the Starry Night Mountains is not optimistic at present.
Thinking of this, Ye Chen stood up and walked to a dining table not far away, and asked, "Brother, I just came from the inland area. I want to ask what the situation in the Xingye Mountains is, why are there so many people missing?"
A middle-aged man in his forties sat at the dining table. After seeing Ye Chen, he waved his hand and said, "The Xingye Mountains have been officially martial law, and we explorers can only get some benefits from the periphery. Don't ask so much, and I dare not tell you if I ask too much."
The man was a little silent, lowered his head and quickly ate two bites of rice, not saying anything more.
Ye Chen nodded and returned to Xu Tianchen helplessly.
The other people in this restaurant should be in the same situation as the middle-aged man, so it doesn't make any sense to ask any questions.
"The information we know so far is limited, so we can only take one step at a time, pack up our things, and let's set off now." Ye Chen frowned.
"Ah, why are you in a hurry? Don't rest?" Xu Tianchen asked in confusion.
Ye Chen shook his head: "The Starry Night Mountains have been blocked by the official. If we want to enter, we can only enter at night. After all, as long as we are explorers, we know the reason why it is not appropriate to act at night, and the official should also know this."
Xu Tianchen no longer said anything. Little experience does not mean he is stupid. Naturally, he understands that Ye Chen is trying to take advantage of loopholes.
The Xingye Mountains are just a small soul beast settlement, among which the highest cultivation soul beast is only ten thousand years old, and it is difficult to touch.
So Yechen chose to act at night, but there was no big problem with him. The original plan was disrupted. After entering, it depends on their adaptability.
The four of them made up their minds and immediately checked the supplies they brought. After confirming that they were correct, Ye Chen took out a golden soul coin and placed it on the table, got up and walked towards the door.
......
The restaurant was only five miles away from the real Starry Night Mountains. Four people rushed down at full speed. In just two or three minutes, they arrived at the foot of the mountain.
The entire mountain range covers a very wide area. Although it is located in Xingye City, its real area is at least ten times that of Xingye City.
At this moment, Ye Chen's palpitations became stronger and stronger, and at the same time, another voice was calling him.
Ye Chen was sure that these two feelings did not come from the same thing, but he was not sure what they were.
He didn't know what was waiting for him ahead, but since he came here, he must find out.
In order not to attract official attention, the four of them could only put away their flying soul guide and hike into the mountains.
Stepping into this forest, Ye Chen finally understood the origin of the name of the Starry Night Mountains.
Before entering, the entire starry sky was no different from other places. What’s strange is that as long as you step into the Starry Night Mountains, the stars in the sky will instantly become extremely gorgeous.
And after careful examination, the size of each star and the light emitted are different, as if connected to this mountain range is a starry sky with different introductions.
Ye Chen was not immersed in such a beautiful scenery, and his mental power naturally spread out to a range of 1,000 meters, and he could see all the details.
It is obvious that the official defense location of Sun and Moon needs to continue to go deeper.
At this time, Xu Tianchen suddenly spoke, "Be careful Yechen. If our country officials want to isolate a place, in addition to sending troops, they will set up soul detection guides every distance. Once discovered by the soul detection guide, the orderly trained troops around will immediately surround them, and as long as they are considered to be enemies, they will be wiped out immediately."
Ye Chen nodded, almost forgot that this was the Sun and Moon Empire, so he should be careful.
He is not afraid that no matter how many people the so-called army, he will solve the problem of soul-like skills in one field, but he and Xu Tianchen are currently sensitive figures, so it is better not to cause unnecessary trouble.
