Just when the man was about to go back and count the number of people, an old man came to him on horseback not far away.Seeing the old man, the magistrate couldn't help laughing.

"Old guy, I really didn't expect you to come too?"

"Of course, this is what the lord has ordered, how can I not come?"

Hearing the magistrate's words, the old man smiled and patted the "pioneering badge" on his chest.

"To be honest, when I heard that the poisonous fog on the northern canyon dissipated, I even thought I was hallucinating... I said, are we really going to open up a new territory?"

"Of course, that's why we're here."

Facing the old man's question, the magistrate nodded vigorously, then he stretched out his hand, took out a pipe from his pocket and put it to his mouth.

"We haven't expanded our territory for many years. If it weren't for this accident, I am afraid that in a few years, there will not be enough places to live in."

"Yes………"

Facing the magistrate's complaint, the old man also sighed.The Western Continent has a vast territory, but many places are dry wilderness, without rivers or lakes.There is no way to live in such a place, let alone grow crops.Even if it is used for grazing, it will starve and thirst the livestock to death.

After so many years, most of the resource-rich areas have basically been firmly controlled by the nobles and merchants of the Flame Kingdom.Ordinary people like them want to change their destiny in one step, they can only look forward to the discovery of "unexplored land".

I don't know whether it's luck or misfortune. Just a few days ago, the patrolling soldiers who went out discovered that the poisonous fog of chaos covering the northern canyon began to dissipate. It was precisely because of this news that their lord gritted his teeth and integrated a team. Head to Northland Canyon to see what's going on.If it has really been transformed into "unexplored land", then they will occupy it immediately!

Most of the team this time were soldiers from the territory, and some professionals.They are responsible for occupying favorable positions in the unexplored land, clearing out the remaining monsters there, and at the same time figuring out what kind of resources the unexplored land has——although the land of chaos is suffocating, when the chaos recedes, the wealth they leave to mankind And the treasures are also mouth watering.

Plants with magic power, spring water that can live forever, spirit crystals that contain powerful power...all of these may appear in the "unexplored land".And as long as they can obtain these, then they will be able to ascend to the sky in one step, possessing inexhaustible glory, wealth and high status, money, wealth, women, land, and manor.Anything they can think of, they can get!

Then, as long as you climb over this hill, you will almost arrive...

"Da da... da da..."

At this moment, the magistrate saw a cavalry galloping towards him not far in front of him. Seeing this scene, the magistrate's expression couldn't help but change slightly.If the cavalryman was as expected, he should be the scout he sent ahead to observe the situation... Could it be that something happened?

"Big, my lord!!"

At this moment, the scout was also riding a horse and quickly came to the sheriff.He saluted in a hurry, and then spoke.

"It's not good!"

"what happened?"

"I've found the unexplored land...but it looks weird there, and...I saw the banner of the Iron Shield family!"

"Those damn thieves!"

Hearing the scout's report, the magistrate's face sank. Although this undeveloped land was the closest to his lord's territory, no one stipulated that only neighboring families were eligible to develop it.On the contrary, every development of unexplored land will be accompanied by bloody battles and scrambles. After all, if one's enemies occupy the territory near one's own, it is definitely not a good thing.

Not to mention, the Iron Shield family and their lord are mortal enemies!

"Quick, everyone follow!!"

At this moment, the magistrate didn't hesitate anymore, he hurriedly took the flag next to him and held it up high, then swung his whip vigorously, and galloped forward quickly.Watching the sheriff leave, the other soldiers hurriedly followed behind the sheriff and rushed forward.

"Damn...that dirty flag!!"

Just as the sheriff rode his horse over the hillside, he immediately saw another group of cavalry not far away. The captain of the cavalry headed high held a red flag with an iron shield pattern drawn on it, and rode his horse towards the gallop forward.The other party also seemed to be aware of the existence of the sheriff. The cavalry captain turned his head and glanced this way, and then accelerated again.

"asshole!!"

Seeing this, the magistrate also waved his whip, and rushed down in a hurry. At the same time, he also raised the blue flag in his hand with a sharp sword drawn on it——this is the family emblem of the lord he is loyal to!

Be sure to get into the wilderness before those damn bastards! !

The Kingdom of Flame does not have any hard and fast rules for the development of unexplored land. However, for such contenders, whoever sets foot on the unexplored land first obviously shows that who is superior, and can severely damage the morale of the other party. .This has nothing to do with profit, it is all about the face and glory of the family!

The cavalry of the Iron Shield family and the Sword family almost went hand in hand. Although there was no discussion at all, it was clear that whoever set foot on that land first would win!

But... why is this "unexplored land" purple?

The closer he was to the "undeveloped land", the more strange the magistrate was. He had already seen that the land was completely different from the unexplored land he had imagined.If he remembers correctly, this land was always shrouded in chaotic mist before, and there were bottomless quagmire and swamps everywhere, but now...why is it that the ground seems to be covered by purple things everywhere? ?What exactly is that?

Could it be that this is the "special product" of this unexplored land?

This question flashed through the sheriff's mind, but he didn't have time to think about it.Because right now he and the cavalry captain of the opponent are almost at the same pace, leaving everyone else behind.It can be said that now is a battle between myself and the opponent, as long as I can set foot on this land before him, then... I will win...! !

"hiss-----!!"

But what the sheriff didn't expect was that just as he was about to set foot on the purple land, suddenly, the war horse under the sheriff's feet hissed and stopped suddenly.But the sheriff on horseback never thought that such a thing would happen, he was thrown flying, and fell heavily to the ground.

"Wow!"

"what!"

Accompanied by the screams, the magistrate only felt the burning pain of his body as if someone had thrown it on an iron plate, but when he turned his head, he was surprised to find that the cavalry captain was not far from him. He kept screaming with a distressed face... What the hell is going on?

"Damn horse!"

The sheriff complained, stood up gasping for breath, limped to his horse, and tried to hold it forward.But this time his war horse refused to move forward. On the contrary, it shook its head and retreated desperately, as if there was some terrible threat ahead.And the next moment, I saw that the horse broke free from the sheriff just like that, turned around and ran away!

What the hell is going on here?

Looking at the war horse running away, the magistrate was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.And at this moment, he felt as if someone lightly touched his shoulder.

"Why, I have nothing to say to you!"

The sheriff didn't turn his head. He could think with his toes that the bastard cavalry captain must be planning to laugh at himself, and he obviously wouldn't give him this chance!

"........."

But the person behind him didn't seem to care about the sheriff's tone at all, but patted him on the shoulder again.

This time, the magistrate finally couldn't bear it any longer. He suddenly pulled out the long sword from his waist, turned around and started yelling.

"You fucking want to hit..."

However, before the magistrate finished speaking, he just stood there in a daze.

What he saw behind him was not the cavalry captain he had imagined, but a monster that was as tall as two people and full of sharp thorns, like a giant snake. It just waved its two front Claws, a pair of blood-red eyes stared coldly at the human in front of him.

"……………………"

At this moment, the sheriff only felt that his mind was completely blank.
