Chapter 635 Archieland Province

The night was dark and cold.

There are forests everywhere, dozens of miles away, no one inhabited, a crooked crescent moon hangs in the sky, and the light sprinkled is faint, like milk diluted with a lot of water.

The faint light reflects the ups and downs of the mountains in the distance. There are many tents on the mountainside, and piles of bonfires are lit. There are knights standing guard at high places. The glowing tents are like quiet stars. It's very lively to watch, but it's lonely to watch from a distance.

"It's a little cold outside, you can sit in the carriage."

Shirley came to Anyang with a sword.

Anyang raised his head, the fire reflected his eyes faintly glowing, he waved his hand and said, "No need."

Shirley stopped talking.

Out of the corner of Anyang's light, he occasionally glanced at the people gathered in the distance.

The talent and the apprentice seem to have reached a certain tacit understanding.

Whether it was from Capital College or directly admitted by Silent Tower, such a situation was formed.

As a result, these more than 100 people were divided into many large and small groups, but they were not rigorous and professional, and some people were even in several groups at the same time. Anyang feels that this is probably similar to the QQ group in the real world. Some people are in a group with his fellow villagers, and at the same time, they are in a group with his classmates and friends, but these groups can involve vital interests.

This should also be what the Silent Tower would like to see.

No matter what their aptitude is, the apprentices are at least exposed to the knowledge of the mysterious people before the talented ones, and they have more power than them now.

The purpose of such a small group is that the apprentices provide knowledge and protection for the talents, and the talents serve the apprentices, such as doing some chores, or helping to deal with the relationship with the mercenary group. more comfortable things.

No matter who the two parties are, the more they pay, the more they will undoubtedly get.

Equivalent to an equivalent exchange.

Anyang Neng could faintly guess that the Tower of Silence and even the entire mystic world is such a way of getting along.

Now, it is no doubt that everyone can be familiar with the equivalent exchange of interests in advance, and at the same time, it can also allow the talented people to contact the knowledge of some mysterious people through the apprentices in advance, so that they will not be half-understood when entering the tower of silence, which can save the tower of silence. A lot of knowledge popularization time, just in line with the formal style of the mysterious person who values ​​time very much!

As more and more casualties appeared along the way, some talented people from aristocratic backgrounds also accepted this model, and this was also the last step for them to let go of their arrogance.

Flynn hasn't made any public appearances during this time, and it seems like a natural fit!

He never cared about these things, but his attitude was quite condoning. Like anything else that delays the trip, he will definitely question Tris, but if it's because of the delay between the talent and the apprentice, he will ignore it, obviously to make them slow down the road. A mind that grows slowly.

Of course, there are also some people who did not participate in these things. Most of these people have certain confidence in their own force, or are arrogant, or are not good at dealing with people.

The most special is the Anyang four.

They are an unbreakable small group themselves, and they have extremely strong power. They are all first-class talents, and the rest cannot be divided or inserted between them.

Nor do they need to unite others.

The only exception is Lydia, because Anyang has been looking for her several times these days, and has also revealed the intimacy between the two, so in many people's minds, Lydia has been tacitly accepted. The fifth person in the Anyang group of four, what is more interesting is that many people can't flatter the Anyang four people, so they start to turn their attention to Lydia.

Is it just Elidia's seriousness...

Three more days passed.

In the past few days, they have been attacked one after another, and the small group has become closer and purer. The way of doing things with Tris and the mercenary group has also changed, giving everyone the possibility to fight for themselves.

At the same time, disputes inevitably arise.

For example, food and beverages are no longer distributed equally according to the head, but are directly distributed to the leaders of each regiment. The specific distribution depends entirely on the open and secret struggle of various means, such as accommodation and the like.

Those who are arrogant or do not like to be in contact with people have no choice but to find groups to join.

The rest who are still alone have a certain strength.

Or have a better relationship with the mercenary group...

"Grumbling..."

The wooden wheels grunted as they rolled on the ground, the horse snorted from time to time, and the narrower road and bumps along the way made the carriage more difficult.

Martin said next to him: "My lord, I heard Triss say that the people behind it will become less and less crowded, and the road will become more and more deviated from the main road. We may have to change to a carriage."

"Well, you can deal with this matter."

"Yes, my lord."

"It seems that something is wrong with the mercenary group today."

"Yes, this is related to Lord Flynn calling all the members of the mercenary group to talk yesterday..." Martin suddenly lowered his voice and approached the carriage and said, "I heard Lord Tris say that Lord Flynn suddenly relieved the mercenary. Some restrictions on the Corps!"

"Have some restrictions lifted?"

Anyang frowned.

Martin nodded and continued: "Yes, in the past, Lord Flynn stipulated that the knights of the mercenary group should not have more contact with everyone, but he told them a few days ago that if they are friends with someone, they will be silent when that person is silent. After the towers become real mystics, they can give them the power of great knights, and even recruit them into the silent towers and make them the guardian knights of the mystics!"

"That's right, no wonder!"

A hint of doubt flashed in Anyang's eyes.

Does Flynn want to draw another line between the mercenary group and the crowd? Does he want to make the competition more intense to choose the strongest, or is it just a tradition or a random thing?

What a pain in the ass method!

Flynn's words have already led to a lot of mercenaries coming to show their hospitality today, but Anyang has always maintained a nonchalant attitude, not approaching anyone except Tris.

He didn't need anyone's help.

Tris is also strong enough.

And he also has his pride. Even if he has to play a trainee once in this world for knowledge and unique power, it is indeed a bit worthless to be in the company of these people.

One afternoon has passed...

The relationship between the mercenary group and everyone is obviously closer.

After all, this is not a one-way designation, but a two-way choice. When everyone was initially surprised and excited because the knight approached them, they soon realized that things were not easy.

Neither are stupid!

The Cavaliers need to find a person who is not difficult to approach and has a certain talent, and ensure that their role in him is not icing on the cake but a helping hand, so that they will be remembered and appreciated. And everyone also needs a knight who suits their own appetite and can protect themselves and take care of themselves on the road.

The relationship between the future mystic and the temporary guardian knight!

This series of changes in group relations, the understanding of the mutual choice between knights and the crowd, I don't know how many dirty transactions broke out, especially most nobles are very indulgent.

And civilian children can't stand the temptation!

Anyway, after about three days, it was difficult for Anyang to see a loner when he left the carriage. Generally speaking, the apprentices would be greeted and embraced, and most of the talented people would go with the knights.

Of course, there are also talents who were not selected by the knights.

Their job is to champion others...

The small group of four in Anyang is still unshakable, and Lydia has not had much contact with other people, but no one dares to treat her unfairly with the powerful force of the four of Anyang.

Kang Fei originally wanted to rely on him, but it turned out that this road would not work, and she recently got closer to the research madman from Metropolis College. The trainee's strength and potential were very good, and he lived in the same building as Anyang at that time. Of course, Conoco wasn't the only one who got close to him.

Anyang's previous neighbors also lived very well.

Although Winnie is mentally deficient, she doesn't have many attacks, mainly because many talented people don't know that Winnie has a second personality that is full of aggressiveness and always wants to destroy the world. Apart from all this, Winnie's combat power is actually the top among the trainees, so she is supported by many people.

It's just that she has to stay far away from everyone every time she sets up a tent, and no one dares to live with her, so she is quite comfortable by herself. But no one knows if she is at ease.

She is still a very kind girl at heart.

Anyang's life has not changed from before.

When he was in the carriage, he practiced, meditated, read books, read books on arcane magic and spell systems, and rarely got off the carriage, except to show his face in front of everyone during meals or overnight stays.

Of course, he would occasionally come down for a walk, or visit Lydia.

When the convoy is attacked, it will also come out to see the fun.

Martin purchased a slightly smaller carriage on the final pass into Archiland, and abandoned the previous one.

Sure enough, once entering the Archilan Province, the road immediately narrowed, and the previous carriage could not go at all. At the same time, the road has become desolate, there are few pedestrians around, and even the thieves who accompanied him all the way have disappeared, it always feels like walking on undeveloped land somewhere.

"It's more desolate than the backcountry in the South!"

Anyang sighed with emotion.

Shirley quickly pursed her lips and continued, "I used to hear that Archilan Province is a place full of legends, but it seems that some monsters really exist."

Anyang smiled.

In the folklore of this world, Aqilan province is probably similar to Shennongjia, or the place where vampires originated in European legends, and the demon mountain in ancient Chinese legends. There are also quite a few knightly novels or rumors mentioning the province of Archilan in Ain's memory, but most of them are related to monsters.

Anyang thought it was just a random rumor before...

Martin said from the side of the car: "In fact, we are not aboriginal people on federal land. Have you heard of it?"

Shirley nodded: "I've heard of it."

"I also just realized that this is actually true. There used to be many other races living here. After the initial residents of the Federation came here with the nobles' army, they preempted their living space. Now, except for the fierce slaves who retreat Except for the confrontation between Howling Forest and the Federation, most of the others are in Archielan, because they hate people and often attack humans, which makes it almost uninhabited."

"But why haven't we heard of it before."

"I don't know how many years ago, people have long forgotten, and there has always been a mysterious person from the Silent Tower guarding the Archilan Province. The Federation does not need to control it, and it is estimated that it will not dare to control it."

Shirley scanned the surroundings and asked again, "So the Federation just allowed such a large piece of land to be occupied by them?"

"It can't be said that it is not them that occupy this land, but the Tower of Silence. Although I don't know why the Tower of Silence ignores them, I only know that they hate mysterious people the most. Tris said that the talented people who pass by every year. And trainees will be attacked by them, and there are also slaves!"

"Isn't the slave in the south?!"

"Most of them are in the south, and there are also here. Some people say that the slaves here are the mysterious people in the slave slaves in the south specially sent to block the new blood of the Tower of Silence. I don't know the specifics."

"I see."

These days, because Martin has been in charge of contact with Tris, he has learned a lot of things. Every day, he is responsible for popularizing a lot of knowledge with the three people that he didn't know before and couldn't see in books.

Everything is not much different from what Martin said.

It was only the second day after entering the Archiland province, and there were hardly any traces of human beings. This province seemed to belong to the Federation in name, and there was only one tattered road.

Forest, endless forest!

Roads full of fallen leaves and overgrown with weeds lead to unknown places, tall and dense trees can sometimes even shade the sun, and in broad daylight they can act as zombie movies!

This also caused trouble for the vigilance of the mercenary group!

An Yangneng could clearly feel that the vigilance of Tris and all the mercenaries had increased a lot, as if he was worried that a group of enemies would suddenly be thrown out of the bushes, and that was exactly the case.

Just the third day into the Archiland province—

The convoy walked slowly and leisurely on the road. The road between the two mountains was unreasonably narrow, with dense woods and bushes on both sides, as well as two sloping hillsides.

A group of slaves lurked silently in the jungle. They even washed their bodies and covered the smell of their bodies with wet soil until they hit the team with the most fatal blow!

"Roar!"

"Roar! Roar!..."

All over the mountains and plains are the roars of the slaves.

From the jungles on both sides, the slave troops, whose size is comparable to that of a tiger, are constantly rushing out, and their speed is faster than that of a war horse!

They chose a road without cover, the apprentice's fragile body was vulnerable, and there was no place to hide from the spell. They also chose the most exhausting afternoon of the mercenary group, and the first round of attacks was the location of the academic noble talent, which happened to be the most vulnerable place!

Immediately hit the mercenary group by surprise!

"Ah, help!"

"Kill all these beasts for me!"

"Monsters, so many monsters!"

"Roar!"

...

Shouting, shouting, and roaring sounded together.

Facing the fierce slave slaves, the noble children were powerless to resist, and soon they were killed and injured in a large area. The smell of blood gradually spread, and many people ran helplessly and shouted loudly.

The mercenary group will also soon fight with the slaves!
