Dosiloya, the youngest son of a city in the north, seemed to have an unknown conspiracy against the White River Valley.
The only good news was that he was ready to temporarily stop his operation against the White River Valley.
This was the information Amber had gathered, but combined with Ma Wen's memory, it was enough to make an accurate judgment.
As a legendary player, Ma Wen was very familiar with the history of the game. Whether it was the various events announced by the officials or the clues obtained by the players from the quests, they were all deeply recorded in his mind.
In Fernand's Continent, the players officially entered this world as "Golden Sons" and arrived half a year after the Cataclysm.
Now, it was half a year before the Cataclysm. If it were anyone else, they would be both unfamiliar and familiar with this world.
But they certainly could not remember every detail like Ma Wen.
"If I remember correctly, the mayor of River Beach City is also a grade 3 wizard. She has been studying witchcraft for a long time, so she let someone else take over her position. "
"In this case, the middle and upper echelons of River Beach City are actually very corrupt. They lack effective supervision and management. "
"But at a certain time, almost after the outbreak of the Black Ganoderma, the mayor of River Beach City suddenly came out of seclusion and killed the believers of the God of Plague while cleaning up the problems in the City Hall."
Ma Wen recalled these details in his mind.
If he guessed correctly, this was most likely the problem that Mr. Dosiloya encountered.
He had a good relationship with the upper echelons of the City Hall and was related to the acting mayor, but so what?
River Beach City was not his territory after all!
The real mayor was very likely to show up. No wonder he had such a headache.
As a result, Ma Wen was relieved.
At least in the short term, the White River Valley should not be affected.
This was a critical time for the summer crops. This year's grain harvest was very important. The White River Valley had just experienced a Gnoll invasion and could not afford a second storm.
"Keep staring. If you discover anything unfavorable to the White River Valley, report directly to Anna! "
Ma Wen ordered.
"Understood, Master."
After saying this, Amber's figure slowly disappeared.
Ma Wen, on the other hand, left River Beach City in the middle of the night.
Following the predetermined route, under the guidance of the moonlight, Ma Wen did not take the main road. Instead, he took a shortcut!
If he had followed the normal path, he would have wasted too much time. Ma Wen had taken a shortcut filled with danger!
Of course, after the crisis, it was very likely that there would be great benefits.
…
To the north of River Beach City were two very obvious hilly areas.
In the northwest was the Silent Hills where the criminals were entrenched. Back then, Ma Wen had once sacrificed the Lich's broken finger in the abandoned altar of the Dead Hills, obtaining a little Agility Blessing and two Elven fighters.
To the northeast was the territory of the Necromancers — the Hills of Despair.
The real main road happened to be in the middle of the two hills, winding northwest, passing through the Crow's Claw before continuing northeast.
It was almost a zig-zag route.
The fundamental reason was still because of the power of the Necromancers.
Many years ago, there was a Legendary-level Lord of the Dead who turned the hills into a blessed land for the dead. Even the mayor of River Beach City did not dare to enter this area easily.
There was a Legendary-level Lord in deep sleep, and there were also three Grade 3 Necromancers guarding the place. It was said that there were also Liches and Bone Devils.
Normal people did not dare to enter the Hills of Despair. In fact, they could not do this either.
Because the Necromancers regarded the Hills of Despair as their own territory, they had built barriers on both the north and south sides, making it difficult for non-necromancers to enter and exit easily.
The southern barrier was the Valley of the Dead.
Walking along the small road, after about half a day, Ma Wen arrived at the Valley of the Dead!
…
[You have discovered the Valley of the Dead, your Knowledge-Geography + 1]
[Knowledge-Geography (Valley of the Dead)]: The southern barrier of the Necromancers, no living beings are allowed to enter.
At dawn, Ma Wen stood in front of the Valley of the Dead. The chilly wind blew, and his Vitality of only 9 points was obviously uncomfortable.
But he still walked in without hesitation!
Ten steps later, a scarlet stele appeared in front of Ma Wen.
[No living beings are allowed to enter]!
This was a paradise for the dead!
Other than the Necromancers, no living beings were welcome here.
Ma Wen was a Ranger, and under normal circumstances, he could not enter the Valley of the Dead. If he tried to force his way in, the guards here would not hesitate to tear him to pieces!
Behind the stele, there was a vast fog. If he tried to barge in recklessly, he would be eaten by the monsters in the fog.
Ma Wen stopped in front of the stele, and lightly knocked on the scarlet words on the stele.
His knocking was very rhythmic, three light knocks, one heavy knock.
This repeated three times, and suddenly, a shrill scream rang in his ears!
"Damn it! It's a Fear check again! "
Ma Wen covered his ears and could not help but mutter.
With the Bellflower badge, he naturally would not be scared by the Fear spell of a small vengeful spirit.
He successfully passed the Fear check! The Fear spell was ineffective!
At this time, the importance of the Headless Maiden's gift was reflected. If he did not have the Platycodon emblem, Marvin might have hesitated to cross the Hills of Despair.
However, with this weapon, he was much more confident.
…
However, although the Fear spell was ineffective, the vengeful spirit's voice was still very sharp, which made Ma Wen very uncomfortable.
It was a female vengeful spirit. She had a pretty face, but she looked a little crazy!
Since she appeared, she had been screaming non-stop, and all the animals within a ten-mile radius, if there were any, were awakened by her.
"Shut up!"
Ma Wen shouted angrily, "Open the door!"
The female vengeful spirit suddenly pounced on Ma Wen and screamed, "No living beings! No living beings! "
"I am not an ordinary living being!"
Ma Wen said calmly. He casually took out the Dark Forest spell book from the Void Conch!
This was the Necromancy spell book that the Corpse Robber had traded with the low-level Necromancer in the Hills of Despair!
There was an identification mark on the book that allowed Ma Wen to enter the Hills of Despair smoothly!
"So it's a dirty Corpse Robber!"
The female vengeful spirit's intelligence was very low, but she actually recognized the mark, which made Ma Wen a little frightened.
In the next second, she pulled the stele, and a door instantly opened.
"Why did you change your appearance? You must have used some Crafty Trick to make yourself more handsome! "
"Go in, you dirty Corpse Robber!"
Ma Wen let out a long sigh. It was indeed easy to fool low-level vengeful spirits. He did not say a word and went through the door.
…
A cold wind.
The sky was dark, the land was dark, and there were white bones everywhere. There were wails everywhere.
"Is this really a place for people to live in?"
Ma Wen quickly walked on the land of the Hills of Despair, and could not help but complain.
From time to time, the wails of the undead could be heard, which made one's nerves go numb. Could one really sleep in a place like this?
How thick were the nerves of those Necromancers …
A group of bats flew in the sky, and they circled around Ma Wen for a while, but did not make a move.
Most of the undead had their minds corroded by negative energy, and did not have much intelligence, so it was easy to fool them.
But Necromancers were different, and they were extremely cunning.
What Ma Wen did not want the most was to meet a Necromancer.
Especially a high-level one, he was completely no match for them.
But fortunately, this land was vast enough, and the Necromancers were basically otakus. Each of them would plunge into their coffins or tombs to research for ten days to half a month, and rarely came out for a walk.
So Ma Wen was relatively safe.
"It will take at most ten hours to walk from the Valley of Ghosts to the Guillotine in the north."
"After the Hills of Despair, it is that guy's territory. Further north is the Moonlight Woodland, and I can take a hot air balloon to the Three Ring High Tower. "
"As long as this part of the road goes smoothly, there will be no problem after this!"
Ma Wen thought as he maintained an even pace.
This kind of constant speed was the most energy-conserving. Ma Wen's current physique was average, so his endurance was not good, so he had to use it sparingly.
He followed the route in his memory and walked for about six hours without encountering any danger.
Until he arrived under a large locust tree.
There was clearly something wrong with this locust tree.
Ma Wen stopped in his tracks.
At this moment, someone jumped out of the locust tree!
It was a pale young man, and he said to Ma Wen, "Something bad has happened, run, run!"
Before Ma Wen could react, a rumbling sound came from behind him!
Ma Wen's expression changed, and he could not help but curse, "Damn it!"
"Could it be an undead riot?"
The young man nodded his head cooperatively. "Yes, I accidentally …"
"Run!" Without another word, Ma Wen broke into a run!
