A strange world

Chapter 727 Section 124. True Identity

Annan and the others set out early in the morning.

In view of the situation in the Serens Mountains, Blom personally led the team. There were a total of fifteen elite knights and three elite mages. The team was much smaller than the one that went to Metallic Territory, but all of them were elite.

Even if they encounter a rat tide and a vampire squad, they can escape unscathed.

The road into the mountain is in a small town at the foot of the mountain called Huangniu Town. It used to be the only way for mercenaries and hunters to enter the mountains, but it was abandoned because of the war between the rat people and the vampires. It took them two days to get here.

The town of Wild Bull, which had been looted and destroyed, was in ruins. It was unclear whether they were humans, vampires, orcs, ratmen, or all of them, with dead bones scattered on the roadside.

It was evening in less than two hours, and it was not a good idea to go into the mountains at night... They temporarily found a house in the town that was barely complete, with one wall missing. The knight picked bricks and wood from the ruins to reinforce the place, set up a fence to prevent impact and a simple horse barrier outside, and Lemon cleaned the garbage in the house.

At dusk, the last ray of light was about to disappear. The knights withdrew into the temporary camp, and the mage placed surveillance eyes around the camp.

As darkness fell, the sound of bats flapping their wings was everywhere outside.

Bonfires can drive away wild beasts, but they become a drawback here. The bright light will attract some uninvited guests, so they only place two magic lamps in the camp for lighting.

The first night was uneventful except for a few bats landing outside the camp at dawn.

"Humans, you are not welcome here..."

Three skinny vampires threatened, fearful of the strength of the team.

"I'm not human!"

Annan stood up in Blom's playful eyes and said: "I am the knight of the Crimson Princess, and we are both of the same blood clan!"

"Crimson...Princess..."

The scarlet pupils of the three vampires suddenly became brighter, and they turned into three giant bats rising up and swooping towards Annan.

Blom grabbed the hardwood bow, drew it full, and fired.

Boom——

The huge bat in the middle fell with the sound. Lemon brewed a water blade, and the huge bat head on the left spurted blood. The only remaining one was easily controlled by other mages.

They were just three ordinary vampires, and they wouldn't even have a chance to meet the Crimson Princess in the Crimson Castle.

Annan asked the last vampire entangled by the live rope in confusion: "Why did you attack me?"

"Zhizhi——"

The giant bat raised its head, its chest expanded rapidly, and exploded!

The mage's hand pulled Annan out of the scope of the self-destruction, and the mage accompanying him released a strong wind spell to blow away the scarlet plague released by the vampire.

"It seems that they are the enemies of the Crimson Princess." Annan said. For example, they are people from the Grand Duke of Borodia.

The mages burned the three bats to ashes and set out in the early morning.

As the sun rose, they encountered no more vampires...but the Skaven began to appear.

"Rat Pack! Formation!"

A wave of nearly a hundred ratmen appeared in front. Twenty elites easily solved the battle, but then the second wave, the third wave... the fifth wave...

At least there are only a few dozen, but at most the number is close to thousands. It was just noon, and they were still outside the mountains.

After finally surviving the day, they camped in a hidden valley, and a vampire came unexpectedly.

This is a battlefield for ratmen during the day and a battlefield for vampires at night. They start a tug-of-war at the dividing line between morning and evening...

So the question is, what are they robbing?

The next day, as they went deeper into the mountains, the intensity of the rat-men they encountered increased. In addition to ordinary rat swarms, rat tides and rat swarms mixed with elite rat-men began to appear all over the mountains and plains.

Annan was in danger several times, the most dangerous of which was passing over a rat nest, which was completely emptied by them. If Annan hadn't opened the portal in time and allowed the sound of musketry to ring out in the mountains, they would have been reduced in number.

Even so, the team of twenty elites began to suffer injuries.

Blom suggested that if Annan wanted to continue to advance, it would be best to send three major legions.

He had to admit that the legions of ordinary people had a huge advantage over the rat men.

They are a group of rangers who do not need much training to be able to form combat effectiveness in a short period of time - this is Blom's evaluation of the Musketeers.

"No." Annan thought this was a bad idea: "The bigger the noise we make, the easier it will be to be targeted, and we may even be attacked jointly."

But it's getting harder and harder for them to move forward.

"I know a way..."

An indifferent whisper suddenly sounded in his ears. Annan was slightly startled and realized that it was the little spider speaking.

"where?"

"Just you...go forward..."

Annan did not answer immediately, but raised his head.

The overlapping mountains in the distance and about a third of the route on the map represent that the real difficulties are yet to come...

This won't work... Unless Dean Blehim and Mr. Swaro are escorted, there is absolutely no way to pass through normally.

"I know a way, but I can only go there by myself. You go back first."

"but……"

Blom wanted to say something else, but Annan interrupted him: "It only takes me three seconds to open the portal. If I encounter danger, I will summon you."

"All right……"

They return to Liberty City, including Klein and Lemon. Soon, only the little spider and the silly cat were left around Anan.

"Where am I going?" Annan lowered his head and asked.

"Along the bushes..."

Next, Annan followed the instructions of the little spider like a puppet. It's strange... The place he walked was not special, but he was not discovered. Sometimes he even walked right past the eyes of the rat camp and walked past the faces of bats. The two groups didn't have the slightest suspicion.

But the credit goes not only to Spider-Man, but also to Annan. He trusted the little spiders enough. If it were anyone else, they would have discovered him if he hesitated even a little.

On the third day of traveling alone, Annan crawled into a canyon on a gloomy morning and followed the guide to a hidden cave that was only as wide as a wine barrel.

"This is it...let me out. I have to walk the rest of the way by myself."

Annan poured out the little spider: "Who are you?"

"My name is Rose..."

Annan had no idea what this name meant: "Who named you?"

The silent little spider gave up communicating with Annan and crawled into the cave without looking back without saying goodbye.

"Go north along the canyon and you will leave the mountains smoothly without being blocked..."

Annan looked at the pothole blankly, and suddenly a white shadow passed in front of his eyes. Reflexively, he reached out and grabbed one of his hind legs.

"Let me go quickly, I want to go with you!" The silly cat caught by Annan couldn't help shouting.

Annan opened his eyes wide in surprise: "You can also speak..."

"Are you surprised? Idiot! Let me go!"

Annan let go of his hand, Silly Cat fell to the ground, and then seemed to be dragged into the cave by an invisible force, only shouts floated out.

"No need to wait for us!"

Annan stood alone in front of the pothole. At this time, no matter how slow he was, he realized that the little spider and the silly cat were not that simple...

Eliminate all impossible situations, and whatever remains is the truth no matter how impossible it is.

So...Lily is actually a god! ?
