After a few hours, they had come up with a general plan for Qin City. This plan would continue to be perfected.
Following this, Zhao Fu started to make preparations to open up a passage to the outside world. Because Intermediate teleportation could only take 50 people, Zhao Fu brought 15 Infantrymen, 15 Shieldbearers, and 10 Archers. Because Cavalrymen's warhorses also counted, Zhao Fu did not bring any Cavalrymen.
There were now 40 Cavalrymen, and five of them were Scholars. They were responsible for quickly constructing the teleportation channel, as well as Zhao Fu, Bai Qi, Doke, Doke, and the Goblin Warrior Zhao Fu had nurtured, Gateli, who was holding the Gold grade shield.
Following this, just like when they had gone to the Orc City, they used the teleportation channel to teleport to the north of Qin Village. After all, that was the closest valley to Qin Village, Little Valley.
Just like last time, Zhao Fu and the others appeared 5,000 kilometers away from the Great Qin Village. Just like before, they found a secluded place and set up another teleportation channel before teleporting again. This went on for another 20 or so times.
"System announcement! The area ahead is a border region and has a Void Zone. Teleportation channels cannot be used. "
There was a Void Zone that was roughly 5,000 kilometers wide between the border regions. In other words, teleportation channels could not be used here, and spatial skills were restricted. If one wanted to travel between borders, they could only travel on foot. [0↑ 9 △ Small ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ Net]
Because Zhao Fu had long since prepared for this, and he had asked Holy Light City's Internal Affairs Officer, Qin Nan, about this, he had a good understanding of the situation.
This was why no faction had opened up a passage to the border. Without a Void Zone, they could use a small teleportation channel 100 or so times to reach the outside world. At the same time, there were many ferocious beasts at the border, and if they were unlucky, they might even run into Stage 2 or higher magic beasts.
"Now that we're here, everyone be careful," Zhao Fu said as he briefly explained the dangers here.
After hearing Zhao Fu's words, everyone understood the dangers, and they all became serious. They did not dare to be careless, as this was a matter of life and death.
Following this, everyone made their preparations and started onwards. Perhaps they had reached the border of the Forest of Horrors, and there were fewer and fewer strange-looking trees, leaving more and more empty areas.
Everyone cautiously advanced, and by now, it was already noon. Zhao Fu ordered everyone to rest and prepare lunch.
If Zhao Fu walked 5,000 kilometers like this, he definitely wouldn't be able to cover it in a month. Perhaps some people realized that even if Zhao Fu walked for a month and reached Little Valley, he wouldn't be able to use teleportation channels at the border. In other words, Zhao Fu would have to spend a lot of effort to walk over and then walk back.
Zhao Fu had long since thought of this problem, but Zhao Fu did not want to rely on walking, as that would take too much time and effort. Even if they reached the outside world, they would only be able to walk around for a bit and then disappear.
However, there was an item that could solve this problem – there was a type of Void Beast at the border. If one could kill them, they would obtain an item called a Void Crystal. With this item, one would be able to use teleportation channels at the border. This was what Zhao Fu meant by opening up a passage to the outside world.
However, these Void Beasts were quite rare, and killing them required a certain amount of luck. It was hard to say how long it would take, so Zhao Fu was not in a rush.
After everyone had a full meal, they continued to move forward. Just like that, the day passed peacefully.
The next day, just as the golden sun rose over the horizon, everyone continued onwards. However, they were not as lucky as they had been yesterday. Not too long after, a massive roar sounded out throughout the forest.
Soon, a massive beast appeared in front of everyone. This beast was a massive bear that was three meters tall. What was different from normal black bears was that there was a layer of metal covering its back, making it look like it had an iron back. Zhao Fu decided to call it the Ironback Demon Bear for now.
This Ironback Demon Bear gave off energy ripples that surpassed Stage 1, and this black bear's level was higher than a Commander grade creature. It was most likely a Lord grade creature, and killing a creature of this level would give Gold grade materials and a chance to drop a Gold grade City Creation Stone.
After appearing, this Ironback Demon Bear charged at Zhao Fu's party.
Zhao Fu's soldiers quickly got into formation. The Shieldbearers raised their shields and the Archers drew their bows.
"Fire!"
Bai Qi gave the order, and the Archers shot out arrows. The arrows were incredibly fast, and they tore through the air and reached the Ironback Demon Bear in an instant. However, the Ironback Demon Bear slapped out with its paw, causing a formless energy to blast all of the arrows away. The arrows that were sent flying were shattered into countless splinters.
Seeing this, Bai Qi and the others walked out. They knew that the Ironback Demon Bear's strength was not something that ordinary soldiers could deal with.
Right now, the strongest soldier under Zhao Fu's command was only at Stage 0-7, while ordinary soldiers' cultivation was around Stage 0-5. Most of the soldiers that Zhao Fu had brought were only at Stage 0-5 or Stage 0-6. They could deal some damage to ordinary Stage 1 creatures, but against this Lord grade Ironback Demon Bear, they would not be able to withstand even a single blow.
As such, in order to reduce the number of casualties, Bai Qi and the others came out with him. Bai Qi's cultivation was at Stage 1, Doke's cultivation was at Stage 0-9, Daisy's cultivation was also at Stage 0-9, and Guthrie's cultivation was at Stage 0-8. They also had a few pieces of high-grade equipment, so they were able to put up a fight against this Ironback Demon Bear.
Bai Qi was the main fighting force, and he tangled with the Ironback Demon Bear while Doke and the others supported him.
After a few exchanges, the Ironback Demon Bear was injured by Bai Qi's sword a few times. Bai Qi's Star Slashing Sword was now infinitely close to a Legendary grade weapon, so he was able to easily break through the Ironback Demon Bear's defenses. With its thick hide, ordinary arrows would not be able to pierce through it.
After being slightly injured, the Ironback Demon Bear became furious and madly roared! Its body gave off a powerful aura, forming a formless forcefield that caused the ground to crack.
By now, the Ironback Demon Bear had completely stood up and furiously attacked Bai Qi. Bai Qi also used all of his strength to fight against the Ironback Demon Bear.
Suddenly!
The Ironback Demon Bear opened its mouth and condensed five or six energy bullets, which shot towards Bai Qi. Bai Qi quickly dodged, and the energy bullets blasted out two-meter wide craters on the ground. Even though Bai Qi looked quite wretched, he was still able to dodge the Ironback Demon Bear's attacks.
Just as the Ironback Demon Bear was about to continue attacking Bai Qi, Doke and the others attacked.
