I Forged the Myth of the Old Ones
Page 209
He looked back at the deep forest, maybe it used to be farmland, school, and home.
But now, it's all badlands.
This is also the reason why Kingdom of the Night needs to resist the demonic tide. It is indeed a way to avoid the demonic tide and let the residents retreat from the influence of the demonic tide, but this will inevitably lead to the collapse of the land, and there is no way to retreat in the end.
"If you seek peace through struggle, you will live peacefully; if you seek peace through compromise, you will perish peacefully."
Lu Jian said with emotion.
"well said!"
Birmingham's eyes widened when he heard Lu Jian's words, and there was a kind of relief in it that he "is worthy of being my little brother".
"If everyone can have your consciousness, then there is no need to worry about the demon tide destroying us, because if one me falls, there will be tens of thousands of me."
"Is there anyone else who is unwilling to resist the demon tide?"
Lu Yi heard the meaning of Birmingham's words.
"Many people, their perception of the Black Forest is not intuitive, and they think it is just a monster. They are in a safe inland and have lost their sense of crisis."
Although he is young, Birmingham looks concerned about the country and the people and is very ambitious.
And like the dry water town that Lu Juan visited before, the people of the Hai family, the townspeople there are ignorant, ignorant, and numb. Now it seems that they are probably in a safe environment, which instead allows the cult to breed.
With internal and external troubles, the Kingdom of the Night is in danger.
Lu Jian saw that the commander was communicating with a mage and the person in charge of Heisong Town.
"You must leave here immediately and go to Black Castle. The red moon will rise soon, and the tide of magic will come. It will become colder here, and there will be more monsters. With your weapons, there is no way to defend against it."
The commander spoke to the person in charge of Heisong Town in an orderly tone.
"We will be evacuating tonight, and the last batch of materials has to be loaded. These rangers will also go to Black Castle with us."
The steward pointed to the herbs and animal furs that hadn't been put away, as well as the wood that hadn't been treated.
"This time the tide of magic is eternal darkness, and the magic infection will reach the front line tonight, there is no delay."
A mage looked at the sky exposed among the trees and said solemnly.
"Eternal darkness? Isn't the magic tide frost?"
Lu Jian asked subconsciously.
Hearing Lu Jian's words, the mage looked over strangely.
"Who told you that?"
The mage, the commander, and the people in charge of Heisong Town all stared at Lu Jian.
Birmingham was speechless, but after a moment of silence, he still stood in front of Lu Trip.
"He's probably just misremembering"
"You get out of the way."
The sorcerer said something, which made Birmingham completely unable to move, and could not even utter a word.
The mage looked at Lu Jian, the man's eyes were dark blue, and he looked about the same age as Lu Jian.
"According to the observation of the Observation Center, this time the magic tide is eternal darkness, the sixth of the twelve magic tides. When the eternal darkness comes, the whole world will fall into darkness without light. If you are in the darkness for more than After a while, it will be devoured by monsters."
The mage's words made other people look in fear. The magic tide sometimes occurs once a year, sometimes several times a year. In recent years, there have been at least three times a year. Veterans among the rangers have experienced many times. , Naturally, he is very clear about the horror of each magic wave.
"What about Frost?"
Lu stumbled without fear, he had never seen it anyway, so he should listen to popular science.
"Frost is the third demon tide, and the master is the winter wolf. The howling of the head wolf announces the arrival of the demon tide. In the frost, the temperature will drop below freezing point, and the low temperature alone will kill most creatures. , the breath of the winter wolf can destroy most of the barriers."
The mage explained vividly, causing many people to stop their work and lean over to listen.
"According to the Observation Hub's observations, there is now a large-scale long night phenomenon west of Black Castle, which is a sign of the approaching darkness. As for the frost, the current temperature is far from the severe winter that is approaching frost."
He took out the map, and he could see that most of the map was the Black Forest, one of which was circled, and he could also see the location of the Black Castle Fortress and Black Pine Town.
This is already considered the depths of the Black Forest, and only the shadow of the city can be seen on the edge of the map.
Just looking at the intricate forest makes people feel suffocated. This is a world where humans are far weaker than monsters.
"The monster we hunted before that"
Lu Jian thought of the gray wolf with six legs and four eyes.
"These monsters are everywhere in the Black Forest, probably because the long night covered the Black Forest, so they escaped from their original place of residence."
The mage explained.
"I see."
Lu Bian nodded.
Although he still felt that the voice he heard in [Knowledge of the Madman] was not false, maybe Frost was hiding in that night.
On the other side, the mage looked at Lu Trim who was leaving, and gave the commander a wink.
"I'm going to ask the Gray Tower for the observation data of the last year. Maybe this time the magic tide is really unprecedented."
===262. Shadow===
It was already afternoon when we left Heisong Town, the setting sun in the afternoon could hardly penetrate the towering tree crowns, and the entire forest fell into darkness again.
"No one knows the exact appearance of Yongye. Some say it is a shadow, some say it is a giant black wolf, and some say it is a man with a dark body. If the family members stare at it, the shadow will start to squirm."
On the way back to Castle Black, the mage might have been interested in Lu Jian's words, so he rode on his horse and began to tell about Yong Ye.
His name is Jonah, and he is a mage sent by the Gray Tower to resist this evil tide. He has experienced the last evil tide and is considered a veteran.
"Shadows will start to squirm?"
Lu Jian pretended not to understand, but actually wanted Jonah to say more.
"To put it simply, when you stand still and the shadow starts to move by itself, it means you have been targeted."
Jonah said quietly.
"That's why we have to stay under the light when facing the eternal night. Only in this way can we confirm their movements, and the powerful sunlight can resist the attack of the eternal night, so the night after the magic tide begins is very important. "
"Then how should Yongye kill?"
Lu Jian asked curiously again, and Birmingham next to him had given up stopping him, and instead followed Lu Jian to listen to Jonah's story.
"Hehe, Eternal Night cannot be killed, and even the leaders of the Twelve Demonic Waves cannot be killed. In other words, there may not be anyone who can kill these guys in this world. When they appear, they usually represent The creatures in this entire area have been completely killed, in fact, there have been zero sighting reports about the source of these demon tides so far."
Jonah smiled helplessly.
"What about Frost, what is Frost afraid of?"
Lu Bian was reluctant.
Anyway, no money, just ask a little.
"Frost is afraid of flames and high temperatures. When resisting the frost wave, the fortress will ignite a fire. As long as the fire is not extinguished, it will be difficult for Frost to break through the fortress. Of course, when Frost arrives, the temperature will rise." With the unprecedented severe cold, ordinary flames will soon be extinguished, and even using magic can only last for a short period of time, what we have to do is to prevent Frost's family members from entering the fortress."
Jonah glanced at the snow on the ground.
wow-
Suddenly, some unknown creature was moving on the canopy of the tree, and a large pile of snow fell, just falling into the crowd, causing a commotion.
"Cold and cold"
Birmingham's back collar fell into a block of ice, making him cry out.
A group of people were laughing at the rangers who were in a hurry, but Lu Jian felt that something was wrong.
He felt that the forest on the left side of the road became deeper and deeper than before.
"Mr. Jonah, is there something wrong over there?"
Lu Jian pointed.
Jonah looked that way.
His face quickly turned livid.
"Rearrange formation, it's an enemy attack."
He raised his hand, and a crystal emitted a strong light, illuminating the entire forest.
Lu Jian saw that the shadows of those trees became deeper and deeper under the strong light, and suddenly, those shadows moved.
Without any change in the incident angle of the light, these shadows moved as if they had their own vitality.
A shadow twisted and entangled with the shadow of another tree.
The next moment, the tree where the shadow originally belonged seemed to be sent into a wood processing machine. Many deep scratches suddenly appeared, its branches fell off, and the leaves turned into debris and fell.
Those shadows are avoiding the glare.
But the falling leaves obscured the light in Jonah's hand to some extent, and Lu Jian watched the distorted shadow shift from one tree to another, approaching the team.
hum-
At this time, another ray of light came on, coming from another mage.
The No.3 mage also turned on a strong light at the same time. Under the illumination of the three rays of light, those shadows had nowhere to hide, as if they were suppressed and remained motionless.
"This is Yongye's family, how did they get here through the sentry tower?"
Jonah muttered to himself, and at the same time, the commander raised the torch in his hand.
The flames flickered, and although those shadows could not move, they looked hideous.
"The outermost sentinels didn't even notice that they might have been captured by Yongye's family in an instant."
The commander said that he directed the team to move forward, at least for now, under the suppression of the strong light, these shadows could not approach the remaining people.
At this time, Lu Jian noticed that a ranger standing outside, under his feet, the shadow suddenly trembled.
"Your Shadow"
Hearing Lu Jian's words, the man's expression froze.
