Bulwark of Light

Chapter 550 Broken Link Area

"Yes."

All seven spoke in deep voices, and they formed a wonderful spiritual link with each other.

A perfectly closed loop.

This kind of link is more delicate, more stable, and stronger than the "Pupil of the Source"... and the medium that forms the link is not the super power of one of them, but the big robe they are wearing at the moment!
That gown with the "Zhenyue pattern" engraved on it!

"My lord...is what General White Lizard said true?"

One of them thought for a moment before opening his mouth cautiously.

He is a follower of Grand Duke Zhenyue in Guangming City. Because of restarting the mission, he rushed all the way to Central City.

In the intelligence of Bright City.

There is no end to the disaster of the Doru River...Before the Beizhou military completely took over the disaster, among the first batch of transcendents to enter the disaster, there was a believer in the God of Light. At that time, this believer He risked his life to find the [door] to the disaster situation for Guangming City, so he went straight along the main trunk of the Heihe River.

The final outcome... is that believer, whose soul returns to the light.

Together with his soul, the information sent back to the "light" is that the Heihe has no end.

This black river is blocked by a huge snow mountain!

However, General Baili said that he saw the stone tablet and the ancient text at the end of the Heihe River!
Putting these two pieces of information together, they attracted the attention of Guangming City... Hence, Zhenyue's trip came about.

As the Grand Duke of Beizhou, he had just succeeded to the throne, so it was justifiable to participate in this operation, not to mention that he brought followers of Guangming City. With such help, Beizhou has no reason to refuse!

"Cross that mountain, and we'll know the answer."

Meng Xiao looked into the distance, and said in a calm tone, "However, with the reputation of that White Lizard General, why would you fabricate such a news out of thin air?"

"grown ups……"

Bagui, who was following behind, asked in a low voice: "After we enter the 'broken link zone', can we do it?"

"That snow mountain is very unusual."

Meng Xiao narrowed his eyes and said expressionlessly: "After entering, don't rush to find someone, first find the correct path to this snow-capped mountain. When the time is right, I will lock Gu Shen's position...You guys, please do Don't let your guard down, if you die in the snow mountain, I don't have time to collect the body."

Baqui scratched his head.

He said seriously: "If you want to do something... Zhong Yuan's team is a force that should not be underestimated."

Baque paused, hesitated for a moment, and said, "That blond guy is really strong."

Meng Xiao said two words coldly.

"idiot."

Bagui was startled, a little aggrieved, thinking to himself, what's wrong with what he just said?

……

……

"Your Excellency Osmond, we are already approaching Montenegro, and we are about to enter the 'Broken Link Zone'."

The spiritual link between Zhong Yuan and the central control room was successfully established.

On the other side of the screen, an old man and a young man sitting in the central control room did not look relaxed.

From Osmond's eyes, Zhong Yuan vaguely noticed something strange: "Your Excellency?"

"Captain Zhong Yuan, I have some bad news to tell you."

Lin Lin spoke for Osmond and said, "There may be unknown 'supernatural beings' in the disaster area of ​​the Doru River... Other teams found long-buried and destroyed bones in the lower reaches of the river branch. "

"?!"

All team members can hear the spiritual link in the central control room!

After a moment of astonishment, everyone's expressions became heavy.

"what?"

Zhong Yuan frowned and said, "But along the way... I didn't sense any breath of life."

Speaking of this, he looked at Gu Shen.

Gu Shen's blazing fire has also been probing.

Gu Shen and Zhong Yuan looked at each other, and slowly shook their heads... This news also exceeded his expectations. Blazing fire spread around the "Black River". The breath is not sensed!
"You guys need to be careful..."

Lin Lin solemnly reminded: "It may be that the power of death in the main river is too strong, no living beings can survive, but no matter what, we must be careful."

"receive."

Zhong Yuan looked dignified, and his reaction was extremely fast. After learning the news, he realized something deeper——

If there is a soul!
So why didn't the coalition forces notice anything during the first crusade mission?
They... are probably hidden!
In this way, they are not just simple "extraordinary creatures", these things living in the disaster environment of the Doru River may have their own wisdom!

If you know how to hide, you must know how to attack!

"By the way... there is one more thing."

Lin Lin lowered his voice, and said: "Gu Shen, you have to be careful, you will soon enter the 'broken link zone', in addition to the possible 'extraordinary creatures', you also have to beware of those guys following behind."

Lin Lin knew that it was impossible for Gu Shen not to notice.

"thanks for reminding."

Gu Shen said seriously: "I will come back alive."

"Not only do you have to come back alive...but you also have to come back unscathed." Lin Lin said quietly: "You are a distinguished guest invited back by Her Majesty the Empress. As the host of Beizhou, I hope that after the mission is over, I can send you back to Nagano safely."

Gu Shen smiled brightly.

The howling wind blows past, and the gray snow is wrapped in a gust of mist. The originally unstable spiritual link is broken. On both sides of the screen, two young people who are separated by miles and look at each other have not yet seen each other. Before he had time to say more, he was forced to end the conversation.

Zhong Yuan put away the communicator and exhaled a foul breath.

He looked at the Montenegro in the distance, and the illusion of "separation" began to emerge in his mind.

It was a scene I had dreamed about more than once.

"Let's go, everyone."

The blond man held his breath and said in a low voice: "This time, follow me up the mountain and see what is on the other side of the mountain..."

Central control room.

After Lin Lin's mental link was broken, his mind was quite restless.

All the teams have basically been notified once... except for Zhong Yuan's team, which has been walking on the road of the main river, and no so-called "skeletons" have been found. The other teams have more or less noticed that the creatures have been active. Mark of!

Now, all he can do is wait!
After completing the intelligence task of communication, Osmond looked much calmer.

Holding hot tea, he said calmly: "Xiao Lin, have all the teams completed the notification?"

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Lin Lin came to his senses: "Only one team is an exception...that team disconnected their spiritual link ahead of time, and the central control room couldn't build a communication platform with them."

Needless to say, I know which team it is.

Osmond smiled.

In his only remaining eye, there was a deep smile, and he asked with a little irony: "What should I do? Contacting the team leader is a big deal. Would you like to try again?"

Of course Lin Lin heard the irony in the commander's words.

"Your Excellency, we have done our best."

He said calmly: "The signal on Grand Duke Zhenyue's side is too bad...I'm afraid this news won't reach him."

"Yeah, we've tried our best, it's really... a pity."

Osmond took a sip of his tea and sighed, "In that case, we can only wish him good luck."

Lin Lin raised the teacup in front of his desk and clinked glasses with Commander in a tacit understanding.

With a bang.

The moment the two clinked cups of tea, they couldn't help laughing.

……

……

The reason why the Duolu River is named as the Duolu River is because General White Lizard saw a stone tablet at the end of the "Black River".

According to the ancient inscriptions on the stele, there is such a name that "makes sense".

But there are no steles in Montenegro.

At least Zhong Yuan didn't see it, neither did General Bai Li... So Black Mountain has no name, it can only be called Black Mountain at present, but this doesn't mean that this mountain is an ordinary mountain.

Under the promotion of Yuanjia's 75% combustion efficiency, it didn't take long for Gu Shen to see the scene of the black mountain magnified dozens of times before his eyes.

A huge black shadow straddles the sky and the earth.

As if... absorbing the snow from the entire world, the black covering the mountain peaks is all paved with gray snow flakes falling from the iron dome.

Snow is the cleanest and purest thing in the world.

Available here.

But it is vaguely stained with evil, ominous, and disaster.

The mental strength of everyone in the team is very tense.

Yuan Yuan clearly felt that the sense of oppression brought to him by this black mountain...was stronger than that of the [Maze]. His memory was erased during the mission to go out of the fortress in Gubao. , so only the early exploration memory is preserved.

The danger of the [Maze] is the final wrong guidance!

But [Montenegro] is different...

Thousands of meters away, you can feel the invisible spread of "coercion", as if it is a huge door plaque carved in plain text, just hanging in front of the mountain, warning visitors not to enter easily.

It was precisely because of this majestic and coercive warning that Zhong Yuan made the move to enter this mountain alone during the last operation.

But this time, it was different.

This team is to explore the secrets of "Black Mountain"!

After approaching Montenegro.

Gu Shen's state of mind became extremely peaceful.

The pendant no longer trembles, because it is too close to the danger itself, and then reminding it will cause the host to make a wrong judgment. At this moment, the pendant, like Gu Shen, has fallen into absolute calm.

Gu Shen knew that this black mountain was the lifeblood of a place connected to the Duolu River!
Because the underworld fire inhabiting his spiritual sea just trembled a bit!
The "source of lifeline" that really affects the underworld fire is hidden behind the mountain... It is very likely that it is hidden in the "stone tablet" that General White Lizard saw!
Gu Shen took a deep breath.

"Everyone... Please hold my 'blazing fire' tightly."

He kept fighting against the Dou Zhan golden hoop, and the small blaze that he squeezed out after going through all kinds of hardships was subdivided again at this moment and turned into eight extremely small flames. In the middle, the flickering disappeared for a while, as if it would go out the next moment.

Gu Shen's heart moved.

These few wisps of tiny flames were divided into everyone's hands.

Zhong Yuan squinted his eyes, carefully sizing up Gu Shen's "Blazing Fire", the ability of this East Continent's S-level genius, few people know the specific function... But judging from his long-term observation and his current performance, "Blazing Fire" seems to be biased towards the spiritual support system, and its killing power is very average, which cannot be compared with Mu Wanqiu's "Judge" who is full of murderous intentions.

A few seconds later, this ray of flame stood firm in the cold wind, seemingly weak, but never extinguished.

This "toughness" is really surprising.

It's just... this ray of spiritual flame is really too small!
Zhong Yuan grasped the blazing fire silently, and a warmth came from his palm... Looking back, the other people in the team were also like this. The snow has also begun to melt at this moment.

"call……"

Someone let out a long sigh of comfort.

This voice was clearly transmitted to everyone's heart lake by the blazing fire.

"This is……?"

Someone exclaimed: "Mr. Gu, can your blazing fire 'link' our spirits? Just like [The Eye of the Source]?"

"Yes."

Gu Shen smiled and didn't say much.

【Blazing Fire】can do much more than 【Pupil of Source】, this is not a level of ability... There is no comparison.

The pendant has sounded an early warning.

Gu Shen was thinking about the way to enter the mountain on the way. There was an unknown "disaster" before, and there was "hunting" by Zhenyue later. He is not a fool, even if he didn't have the previous agreement, he would not reach the destination Just parted ways with Zhong Yuan, and then set foot on Montenegro alone.

These extraordinary people are powerful teammates...

Link up with "Blazing Fire"!To ensure that everyone's spirit is stable!
At this time... it's time for me to do my best.

"The 'floating snow' in the disaster area of ​​the Doru River is spiritually corrosive... You should know the mental toxin that swept the 'Gubao Fortress'?" Gu Shen said slowly: "I settled that plague. , my 'blazing fire' naturally restrains these toxins. Holding this fire, stepping on this mountain, no matter where I am, I can feel it in my heart, so I won't lose my bearings."

"The poison of the Duolu River and the poison of the river have the same source... If you can cure one, you can cure the other." Zhong Yuan said, "After entering the mountain, everyone holds the 'flame'. At that time, we will lose our way, and at that time, I am afraid that no matter how many of us there are, we will not be able to escape the fate of being separated and lost."

The flight speed of the team gradually slowed down, and the altitude gradually decreased.

That powerful spiritual coercion continues to spread...

In the end, Yuanjia couldn't fly off the ground, and everyone's feet actually stepped on the snow. The black snow flakes melted continuously in the jet of the exoskeleton device, turning into sunken black puddles.

The gray dome is reflected in the black puddle.

The great black river is reflected in the gray dome.

The members of the team stood at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the huge black mountain of unknown height.

"Boom--"

The next moment, a majestic snowstorm swept past, engulfing everyone's figures——

After the black snow dissipated.

At the foot of the mountain, it was empty again, and it was deserted and silent.
