1094. The strange master (3)

This place is located in the northeast corner of the entire Black Tower base, and of course the ornate buildings above have long disappeared. However, the maze-like underground corridor sleeps deeper, and the roads there connect to the base base of the tower.

Moss, everywhere, these rare little things spread and shine in the maze, and the three of them walked towards the depths of the ground from here.

No one could have imagined that the corridor was originally part of the magnificent royal palace of the Kunting people. The walls were carved with exquisite reliefs, which depicted a magnificent scale of life. They included palaces, temples, houses, stables, arched city gates, columns, artworks, towers, defensive walls, terraces, and gardens.

The corridor is filled with complex passages, and ancient stone steps are built. The bottom floor of the stone steps is the road leading to the entrance to the tower foundation.

The cold air blew from different directions, and the three of them walked down, as if they had arrived at a wide and dark intersection.

The faint green light is bright and the impermanence is destroyed. Zhuge Yun, who is standing here, sensed the intersection of different time and space, and even imagined how many people passed by here at that time.

Feeling the fluctuations of life, the light on the moss becomes more dazzling, just like an invisible hand fiddling with them.

While paying attention to the movement of energy, Zhuge Yun patrolled the surrounding buildings and suddenly said to Quintasha, "Are you familiar with this place?"

"I... haven't been here for a long time, but I just vaguely remember the direction. Why did you ask that?"

Quintasa was stunned for a moment and answered like this.

"I'm just curious. Besides that, I want to know what the next Northern Expedition will be like? Why do believers here only follow you?"

"This question... are you just curious?"

"right."

Kuntasha looked at Zhuge Yun's calm eyes while looking at Zhuge Yun's calm eyes, and felt a chill slowly pouring into her heart. Where did this look seem familiar?

"Beizheng is not what everyone imagines..."

On the way, Quintasha once again told the long-standing past.

The Kunting Empire did invest a lot of money in this dispatch of troops. It took a whole year just to gather the troops of various clans and train them.

The day of going to war is here.

Ten thousand war horses neighed, flags fluttered, armor shone, and the cold light on the weapons made the earth shine in an instant.

The thirteen ancient city gates in Xiannadu were opened at the same time, with flowers paving the way, and pebbles as thick as thumbs were filled with the passage. Tens of thousands of security teams were arranged along the way to maintain order. Among the marching team were temple priests, mysterious psychics riding elephants masked, soul-forging masters of lions and tigers under their crotch, and countless nobles and generals.

The army's equipment, supplies and various supplies were plundered from the empire's jurisdiction to the best of its ability. The long army lined up by the army took a whole day to pass through the most spacious streets of the empire. This was just the vanguard, and the main force did not enter the city.

This scene, this scene, is unprecedented in the empire and is spectacular.

In addition to making the people along the street stunned, they also gained a deeper understanding of the empire's prosperity and the grand grand show of the royal family.

In addition, many families that support the imperial royal family also brought the most powerful "human and god" troops. These people have powerful abilities and can fight against hostilities with one, and their strength is unstoppable. The reason is that they have cultivated more powerful spiritual power than ordinary people.

There was also a more special force, wearing scarlet armor, short swords and swords, as if they had just drunk the blood of the enemy.

The priests were wearing robes with gold patterns, complex and gorgeous, chanting monotonous and loud prayers, and slowly passing through the imperial royal tent at neat steps. In the middle of the team was a huge wooden magic array carried by thirty-two people. A tall young man with black hair wrapped around his forehead was sitting in the center of the magic array, nearly three meters tall - Quintasha.

The spectacular ritual of expedition was noisy and flaunting, and the vanity of the people in power was greatly satisfied, but this could not conceal their ignorance and the many difficulties they were about to face.

If you want to go to the Northern Mainland, you must first solve the transportation problem.

The solution is to rebuild the channel connecting the two continents of Mu and the northern border. This time-consuming and labor-intensive project not only affects the strategic supply problem of the army, but also affects the lifeline of the army's march and retreat. It is not to be said that it is important.

The huge rift on the ground lasted tens of thousands of kilometers, crossed the frozen plateau and penetrated deep into the tall snow-capped mountains and the deserts in the northern border. It was like a natural barrier and could not be crossed.

However, since ancient times, there have been cable bridges built by our ancestors in several unusually narrow places on the cracks. I don’t know when these cable bridges were built, showing the great wisdom of the builders.

At the beginning, the cable bridge may have only ropes and wooden boards connected, but in countless years that followed, it was constantly strengthened and renovated by neighboring people, and replaced the ropes with iron ropes. The number of iron ropes became more and more, and the scale of the bridge became larger and larger, almost becoming the only available passage connecting the two continents.

The Kunting Empire had always had heavy troops at major bridges and roads. It built border passes very early and organized garrison troops to reclaim mountainous areas. Many nearby border residents and adventurers coveted various unique products from the Northern Continent: such as precious metal minerals, so they often traveled between the two places due to interests.

But these people dared not go deep into the north, at most a hundred kilometers. After finding the needs, they did not dare to stay and retreat immediately within a few days.

However, it was not impossible for a bold dreamer to settle down in the Northland and build houses. However, it was soon discovered that the Northland was too terrifying. From a long period of months to a few weeks, the house they had just built would be destroyed by the unknown aliens who suddenly came to kill. Not only that, some people never came back after going.

The escapee described that these aliens looked ferocious, cruel and bloody, and could eat human flesh. They couldn't bear to look at the scene, and they had never heard of the cold methods.

After that, countless horror legends began to spread, and the Dark Continent was named after it, and no one dared to go there to find a permanent place to live.

Of course, those in power in the empire had heard of these rumors, but they thought they were all nonsense: those alien races were barbaric and uncivilized, and although they were bloodthirsty and cruel, they would only attack unarmed good people, and they were more like a mess of sand and would soon be completely wiped out by the army.

Stimulated by all kinds of greedy hearts, crazy desire to conquer, and more important soul crystal resources, the Kunting Empire would never give up this piece of fat, so it was only possible to continue moving forward.

Because the army was too large, they thought of introducing seawater to fill the natural chasm and crossing the northern border with warships. So they dug ditches from one end of the sea far away. However, after a few trials, the cracks on the earth seemed like an endless abyss. The sea water disappeared instantly and could not be filled at all, leaving only spectacular waterfalls.

In the end, out of helplessness, they had to choose the slowest and least reliable method: reinforce the bridge cables and build more and larger bridges so that the army can pass smoothly.

According to the original plan of the empire rulers, the most important purpose of this northern expedition was to obtain the soul crystal and attack the so-called alien races.
