******************

After passing Yunwu Mountain Pass, although there are still many zombies on the road ahead, there is indeed no "must-pass" road.

With Nini in front of the guide, the three people easily walked around the foot of the Gnove Fortress. No one could know the history of this fortress. It had a strong dwarf and human architectural style, but today it had fallen into the hands of thousands of Gnoves. As for whether the Gnoves had established cities or tribes here, whether there were social organizational structures... no one studied these. When seeing Gnoves, they did not distinguish their age and gender and talk about their rural feelings, but they drew their swords as soon as possible.

The fortress was built on a tall cliff in the Yunwu Mountain Range, built along the mountain. At the foot of the mountain is the Yunwu River with deep and rapid waves. It was originally supposed to be a long hole guide bridge across the moat and leading to the city gate, but now it has collapsed and disappeared at all. What is left now is a long cable bridge that I don’t know who built across the river and the skeleton made of steel cables. Such a project can be humans or dwarves, and it cannot be a gnoll.

After crossing the bridge, walking up the mountain is the zodiac fortress, like walking down the mountain is the complex Fat monster cave - it is a weaker monster with equal strength and strength from goblins. Now it is mostly used as a vassal, slave and food reserve of the zodiac fortress. In addition to entering the zodiac fortress to rescue Dana Hei, the deepest part of the Fat monster's cave also has a long-distance target, a magic book that increases charm.

This book actually gave Lu Yuan the most headache. Lu Yuan didn’t have the ability to be sensitive, while Annie and Mu Mu could not have the ability to perceive and intelligence. Mu Xing was going to leave, and all the first five types of books could be given up - but no woman would give up the magic books that increase charm!

Lu Yuan gritted his teeth secretly and got it first! If I force me to choose, I will use it myself! Anyway, our charm has increased, and everyone will benefit, right?

************

It was already dusk when I really walked to the foot of the mountain.

"I'll save Danahei, and I'll leave it here to you. You can help Nini find that book. Whether it's found or not, we must evacuate before dawn."

The Fate monster has poor strength, but it is extremely large in number, so it is impossible to conduct a large-scale search at the foot of the mountain. The best way is to use the little black cat Nini's invisibility and shadow jumping ability to let Nini search by herself and Mu Xing can assist.

After explaining to Mu Xing, Lu Yuan turned to Minsk and said, "Before I come back, your only task is to protect Mu Xing's safety."

To attack the Gnoll Fortress directly, unless I am crazy, I still have to use the old method of secretly sneaking in.

"Leave it to Minsk, I swear with my honor. I will not let the lady be hurt." Minsk said.

"Oh, I'm talking to it," Lu Yuan pointed at the hamster Bubu.

"Squeak~"

"Okay, then I'll think you agreed."

Lu Yuan walked alone to the bottom of the cliff and took out a small strand of hair. This was the hair given to Minsk by the witch Danahei. Unfortunately, this stupid man didn't know anything and failed the witch's thoughts in vain. Lu Yuan calmed down and cast a rare second-ring spell "MarkedObject" obtained from the legendary wizard Ilminster. This spell can help the caster track his tracks based on tracking the items he carried.

After casting the spell, his hair automatically burned to ashes, and Lu Yuan had a vague mark in his mind. According to Lu Yuan's current spell casting level, he could maintain the marking here for at least five days. He took off his mage's robe and carried the "Heart-thorn" long sword behind him. He gently stretched, grabbed the rocks and cracks of the cliff, climbed up like a monkey, and soon disappeared into the twilight.

A ten-meter-high city wall built on a cliff that is hundreds of meters high can not stop Lu Yuan's footsteps. In the kingdom of Feren, unless you can fly, climbing from here is absolutely impossible. But when this impossibility becomes possible, the rest becomes surprisingly simple.

There are only two air-to-air crossbow towers built on the wall on the side of the cliff, which can be without crossbows and without any guards. And since the castle is built on the mountain, it is basically the highest point here, standing here. The "hunter mark" in my mind becomes both stable and clear.

The Gnoll Fortress may have been a mixed military and civilian fortress in the past. For safety, countless people's houses were stuffed into this huge fortress, squeezing the entire fortress like a pigeon cage. Fortunately, there are stone and soil buildings here, otherwise there would be no need to consider the Gnolls' issue in the North.

There are tall walls everywhere in the fortress, with densely packed "dove cages" crowded with each other, and the aisle under the wall that only two people can pass sideways. The aisle inside the fortress, against the high walls on both sides, looks more like a tunnel, with extremely narrow and complexity. In the evening, when the light is not good, there are giggles everywhere, so Lu Yuan had to venture to walk and jump on the houses and walls.

What’s funny is that it’s probably because orcs like gnolls have poor intelligence. When they see something flying over their heads, most of them will be “woofed” a few times, and then they will leave it alone.

And here is a fortress with thousands of werewolves living! There are roars everywhere, it is a paradise for dog lovers.

After passing through a row of barracks, Lu Yuan came to a place with huge deep pits.

This deep pit looks like a kind of beast-fighting pit for ornamental battles. The walls are covered with barbs. A few rooms like "caves" are taken out near the bottom. The beasts, orcs or slaves from the past are locked there. Because this big pit is more than ten meters deep, the side is tilted like a bucket, and it cannot climb up with bare hands. There is no ceiling on it. The only thing that can go up and down is that a person can only walk on the side, hovering on the walls of the big pit.

As long as people are locked at the bottom of the pit, no matter how many people are, they can be guarded with just a sword. Lu Yuan suspected that this was the one who was used to keep the zombies, because humans treat alien races like this. They are detained in the open air and feeding them directly from the top of the pit... But now the zombies have become their masters, and this deep pit has begun to be used to imprison humans.

Lu Yuan followed the mark and successfully touched the edge of the pit. Unfortunately, when he arrived here, it was no longer a problem that could be solved by stealth. He took out his staff, looked at the zombies standing by the pit, murmured the dragon's words in a low voice, sprinkled a handful of white sand, and performed the "sleeping technique". As the sand fell, several zombies began to fall asleep at the same time, and one of them even slept directly at the edge of the pit. Lu Yuan passed by and twisted his neck one by one. The zombies had a very sharp sense of smell, and if they used a sword, they would be discovered soon.

At this time, the werewolf turned over sweetly, then rolled and fell down, and fell to death with a bang. Lu Yuan jumped down without thinking.

"Ah~" Danahei, who was curled up at the bottom of the pit and was not locked in the "cave", was startled by the falling gnoll, but she just screamed and was covered by a big hand.

"Shh~" Lu Yuan, who fell to the bottom of the pit, covered Dana Hei's mouth that he wanted to shout, and said softly in her ear "Minsk". Dana Hei immediately relaxed. It seemed that Xiao Ming had a high position in her mind.

"Relax all over." Lu Yuan took out the rope and tied the two people together quickly. Let Dana Hei fix it on his back. However, Dana Hei had nothing to relax, and she almost collapsed there. She hadn't eaten for a few days, just relying on the rain to support her. If she hadn't relied on a few tricks to scare the gnolls, she might not have lived today.

"It's leaving." After saying that, Lu Yuan reached out and pressed the wall, and his five fingers were grabbing. When the decayed wall was broken, Lu Yuan's figure rose upwards. Even though he took someone, Lu Yuan still silently followed the original path and returned to the top of the cliff, and then he jumped down without hesitation. Dana Hei on his back looked at the high wall of the Gnoll Fortress that was quickly away, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

With a snap of his fingers, the flying feathers dragged Lu Yuan and landed on the ground in a daze.

The rescue operation ended successfully without any danger.

"What are you doing?!"

When they were about to reach the meeting place, Lu Yuan saw hundreds of zombies surrounded by people there. And there were zombies coming one after another in the distance. Now Mu Xing and Minsk could only fight back to back against one wall. Lu Yuan shook his head, had to raise his staff, draw out his long sword, shout "I'm dry tofu!", and then rushed in.

With the series of fireballs opening the way, Lu Yuan instantly cleared a large area of ​​space ahead. The responders Mu Xing and Minsk rushed out.

"What are you doing?!" Even Lu Yuan had to be annoyed, and his work that was originally smooth was messed up in the last moment.

"Minsk must fight against evil!" Xiao Ming shouted spiritually, and then said, "I want to save Dana Hei!" After that, he waved his giant sword and rushed back.

"Minsk! Minsk!" Dana Hei on Lu Yuan's back shouted his name. Did you laugh? You must be so happy to see Xiao Ming like this?! From now on, this guy belongs to you! The excited Minsk finally saw Dana Hei on Lu Yuan's back, "Dina Hei? Dana Hei! You evil, the mage who kidnapped the princess! Hand over Dana Hei!"

Lu Yuan was black. He quickly untied Dana Hei and said to her, "I've had enough! I'll leave this stupid person to you in the future!" After that, he threw it directly to Xiao Ming.

"Don't worry! I will protect Dana Hei!" Minsk shouted and took Dana Hei, carrying it on his back without hesitation.

"I'm talking to Danahei!" Lu Yuan was crazy, Xiao Ming was too good at responding.

"Bub knows that you saved Dana Hei, you are the partner of justice! You are a good person now!" Minsk fixed Dana Hei with his belt while issuing cards. Fortunately, he has an IQ problem, but his basic combat and survival skills are not a problem.

"Minsk, what's wrong with him?" Dana Hei asked weakly, and by the way, the bread and water handed over by Lu Yuan. Dana Hei tried to distract himself through conversations, so that he would not eat too fast or too ungraceful, but on Xiao Ming, who was like ADHD, he could not do this at all.

"Bub and I are both very good and very happy!" Xiao Ming answered quickly.

Lu Yuan pointed at his head, made a few heavy punches, and then spread his hands-"It's just broken..."

"I understand~" Danahei covered Xiao Ming's quick answering mouth and expressed his understanding.

"Mu Xing and I are broken, Dana Hei, you command Minsk to break through! Immediately!" Lu Yuan stopped and happened to stand in front of Mu Xing. He released the "spider web technique" to cover Mu Xing's directly behind. The two walked together for a few steps, and then Mu Xing used the "entanglement technique". Lu Yuan used the "fireball technique" to ignite the previous spider web, interlaced several times, and finally separated the large army of the werewolf behind him.

"Cross the bridge!" Lu Yuan and Mu Xing, who were running on the suspension bridge, saw Minsk, who was carrying Dana black, fighting two tall Warcraft.

"Cut his neck! Big idiot, I said my neck! Stop and chop it again!" Lu Yuan was about to ask if Xiao Ming was crazy again, but when he heard the witch Danahei's guidance excitedly, he was even more excited than Xiao Ming. The previous steady feelings were all pretended! Damn, I finally knew who was contagious about Xiao Ming's brainlessness.

Lu Yuan did not waste time in the United States. He waved the Glazed Staff and guided it briefly. A huge white hand appeared, and then slapped the front of the two Warcraft! Only the sound of bone breaking and flesh piercing the flesh and blood were heard, and the two Warcraft who turned into corpses in the air flew towards the other end of the bridge. At this time, the Six-Ring Spell "Bigby Flying Highway" was a perfect killer weapon. Lu Yuan seemed to remember something, and ran in front faster. When passing the Warcraft corpse, the sword light turned and cut off one of the Warcraft's wrist guards.

If they hadn't emerged, Lu Yuan wouldn't have remembered that there would be a good magic item here!

**********

By the bonfire at night, Mu Xing smiled and showed the charming legendary book "The Book of Leadership Style and Influence". Lu Yuan also showed the clean wrist guards, but Mu Xing is now enjoying life and is not interested in these adventure equipment. Lu Yuan took out a small notebook and crossed out the article "Gnoll Fortress, save Dana Hei, get the Charm Book, Agile Wrist Guard" on it.

"GOTIT" he whispered the joke he had agreed to with Annie and the others.

"I don't know, how are they doing now?" Mu Xing and Lu Yuan sat back to back and said quietly.

"It should be better than us, right?" Lu Yuan said guiltily. He was chased and chopped by the werewolf along the way. So what about Ding Mumu who was sleeping in the flower and sleeping in the willows, and Anne who was the leader of the Flame Fist Mercenary?
