The distortion did leave many traces of pollution during the wandering process. Although the aura of chaotic magic has quickly dissipated, due to the timely discovery, many clues still remained.

Following the polluted aura that would appear from time to time, Gao Wen and his party continued to move forward in the dark mountains and gradually approached a mountain gap located southwest of the camp, and this gap made Gao Wen feel alert.

This is the lower terrain in the dark mountains and the easiest pass to cross. If those monsters came in from this gap... then they would soon sense the human breath of the pioneer camp and rushed down from the mountain to attack the camp.

The group of three climbed up a huge rock and looked at the gap in the mountain in front from afar. There were not many plants covered with the rocks. The exposed gray-white rocks were as dead as broken bones. The entire terrain was like a sharp axe. Under the gap, a disturbing gray-black mist could be clearly seen rising.

Gao Wen immediately asked Hetty to use spells to cover the three people's various auras, including magic. The third-level mages have certainly limited abilities in this regard. This aura shielding can not hide any intermediate or above profession. However, Gao Wen is very clear about the shortcomings of the distorted body: after leaving the environment of the magic tide, their perception will become very slow and their thinking ability is low. As long as they do not clearly feel the breath of magic or intelligent creatures, they will not react.

After completing the hidden work, the three of them carefully touched forward. Before they could get halfway, a rotten breath had already come from the front.

"Don't vomit..." Hetty whispered dry retching, while his fingers grabbed the staff with a little force: she was so familiar with this breath that it even appeared in her nightmare more than once, awakening her from the dream. A few months ago, the entire old Cecil leader was destroyed in this breath.

Knowing that those monsters could sense magic fluctuations, and their own shielding spells had limited effect, Heti restrained the urge to release the breeze shield and carefully followed Gao Wen, bypassing the rocks and ancient trees blocking the way ahead.

Gao Wen, who was walking in front, suddenly made a gesture: "Hide in front."

The group of three people hid among the rugged rocks. Amber was brave enough to poke his head out from under Gao Wen's shoulders, and the next second he had goose bumps all over his body.

The mountain road below was shrouded in a layer of gray and black mist, and the plants there withered and mutated. Fierce and terrifying spikes and tentacles grew from the rocks and soil. Countless clusters of soft creatures squirmed and rolled between the earth and rocks, looking disgusting. Groups of flesh and blood were staggering forward on this mountain road that seemed to be a road to hell. The chaotic face was filled with flesh and blood, and the blasphemous and low murmur sounds came from their chests and formed a buzzing resonance in the air.

What makes people even more chilling is that many of these flesh-and-blooded giants have rotten and tattered ancient weapons stuck in their bodies. Amber even saw that one of the giants had an empty human skeleton stuck in the abdomen. This disgusting evidence proves Gao Wen's judgment:

This is a devil army that wanders from the wasteland of Gondor and originates from hell.

Amber immediately grabbed Gao Wen's arm and expressed her clearest thought at the moment in her life with the lowest and lowest voice: "Boss, I don't want the salary, please let me go..."

"Shh" Gao Wen held Amber's head, but his eyes were scanning among the monsters. He confirmed over and over again, and finally breathed a little relieved, "Fortunately, it's not the worst."

"Isn't that bad?!" Amber looked at Gao Wen and felt like he was watching a lunatic. "Such a large group is enough to tear down the entire camp three times!"

"Don't be scared by the surface. In fact, the number of them is not as large as you imagined." Gao Wen knew what kind of wrong perceptions would an ordinary person have when he saw a distorted army for the first time, so he explained patiently, "Those mist and the surging growth on the ground will make you feel that there are a lot of numbers, but if you count carefully, the number is probably less than a thousand..."

Amber was stunned for a moment and carefully estimated the number of flesh and blood giants shaking in his sight: "It seems that there are only a few hundred..."

But then she reacted: "But there are only 800 people in the entire camp, and there are still 700 people who can't fight!"

"But it is much better than my worst expectation," Gao Wen whispered. "What I was most worried about at the beginning was that their number exceeded that 'line' would increase rapidly, just like it grew out of the air. We suffered a lot in this. The two thousand enemies in the report may have grown to 3,000 or even 4,000 when they met... But you see, there are no new distortions growing out of the air, which means that their number did not exceed that line, or exceeded a little, but it has not yet reached the level of natural growth..."

"But even if there are only so many, it is not something that the current camp can deal with," Hetty whispered worriedly. "Ancestors, their current direction of action is towards the north of the mountain. Sooner or later, they will reach the near the camp, once the camp is exposed to their perception..."

Amber's two pointed ears trembled uneasily in the air: "Didn't you say that these distortions will wander randomly or stop in place without sensing magic reactions or humans? Maybe they will not leave after walking for another period, and stop in place for a thousand or eight hundred years..."

"Don't put hope on this. Although their number will not increase, it will also exceed the critical point of natural demise. I hope that these nearly a thousand monsters will stay in the mountains and be neighbors with us forever? Dream," Gao Wen frowned, "We must find a way to solve them..."

Amber looked at Gao Wen silently: "Then I have a plan..."

Gao Wen was a little surprised: "Do you have a plan?"

"That's right. I'll sneak over and kill one first. Then you, the legendary knight, drove down to earth and jumped out. A war charge, killed more than 990 left. Your great-granddaughter, put a few arcane fireworks next to you to help you liven up. When you go back, you claim that this number of monsters is defeated by the two of us. You continue to farm with peace of mind. I'll find a tavern to brag... Oh, don't leave, I haven't finished..."

Halfway through the opening of the guy, Gao Wen knew that she was actually in a state of serious nervous and random analysis again, so he didn't listen to what she was saying in the next few words, but looked up and paid attention to the surrounding terrain. At this time, he finally found a route to bypass those monsters, so he pulled Rahti's robe and then carefully began to take a detour from the side.

Amber was stunned for a moment, stopped analyzing randomly, and obediently fled into the shadow and followed Gao Wen's pace.

The three men walked around the course of slow-moving distortions, and found a path between the rocks, and along the direction indicated by the corrupted path, they approached the mountain gap in the Dark Mountains, and finally found a highland that could allow their sight to cross the rocks and look out to the south of the Dark Mountains.

Gao Wen climbed up the rocks and looked into the distance.

On the other side of the mountain... I almost thought of the Smurfs if I accidentally got it.

There is no group of cute smurfs on the other side of the mountain. There are only the ruins of civilization, the wreckage of the world of order, and only the wasteland of Gondor, shrouded in chaos and darkness.

Although the real Gondor wasteland is still farther away, the aura of that polluted land has appeared on the sky on the other side of the dark mountains and crossed a certain dividing line. The sky on that side is like an eternal dusk, and large and dirty clouds hang down from the sky, showing a sense of oppression that almost swallows the earth. Under the cover of this strange sky, the earth presents a strange posture as if it is twisted and twisted in another world.

Starting from the southern foot of the Dark Mountains, an endless dark forest covers all the mountains and a small half of the strip plain. Even if it is far away, Gawain can see that there are many twisted forest called the "Black Forest" that are straight into the sky. The mutated giant trees are slowly swaying and extending poisonous tentacle-like branches towards the sky; while the further belt plains rise with mist, and the fog continues to present the illusion of passing cities, fortresses, palaces, etc., and then you can see a barrier like an aurora.

The barrier that seemed to be an aurora was the only thing in sight that could be reassuring and pleasing to the eye. At this distance, it looked like a hazy shimmer ribbon, but in fact it was extremely tall and magnificent. The layer of "glitter" connected the sky and the earth. It seemed to be a fragile light curtain, but it was thicker and stronger than the mountains. On the basis of the light curtain, you can see one neatly arranged tall towers.

The light curtain is maintained by the powerful energy released by the tower.

The light curtain is the magnificent wall, and the tower under the light curtain is the Sentinel Tower. This system blocked the entire wasteland of Gondor and prevented the demise of all living beings on the continent.

Everyone knows that this barrier was built by the elves' silver empire, but in fact it is so beyond imagination that the technology and resources required to build it have exceeded the limit that any intelligent race can bear alone. Even the powerful elves' silver empire cannot bear it independently. So in fact, the elves only took the lead in taking half of the resource pressure and provided all the technology. Then all forces on the mainland, including the Dwarf Kingdom and the Gondor remnants, jointly undertake the other half of the material tasks, and then built the barrier.

It was really an exciting era.

But it is also an era where terror covers the earth and no one can sleep.

Amber's head swayed under Gao Wen's shoulders. She looked at the polluted land on the south side of the mountain with nervousness, and looked at the barrier further away with amazement.

Even with the obstruction of a magnificent wall, the breath of the demon tide still pollutes a vast area outside the barrier, but compared to inside the barrier, even the dark forest is already a complete paradise.
