Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Hao Ren was stunned for a moment before he shook his head. "Damn, the wifi outside the country is really unreliable. I wonder if Vivian heard my last sentence."
The female knight named Lavinia was still standing in front of him. She blinked when she saw Hao Ren's strange behavior. "What's wrong, Sir Guardian?"
Hao Ren quickly adjusted his expression and waved his hand with a smile. "It's nothing. I just remembered something in the past. After all, I have just 'woken up,' and sometimes my memory is messy. Where were we just now? "
"You are going to find your old friend." Lavinia could not help but look doubtful. Apparently, she did not believe some of what Hao Ren said. "Do you have a clear goal? My family does not have much influence in the kingdom, but my brother has a wide network and likes to get to know some historical hermits and scholars. Maybe they can help you. "
Hao Ren was stunned. He was looking for a husky who had just fallen here a few days ago. What could a bunch of old scholars do? It was better to find a few masters who could make bone soup. Hao Ren could line up a few pots at the city gate, and as long as Lily was within a hundred miles, he would be able to summon her. But he could not say this out loud, so he just complained in his heart. Outwardly, he still had to be polite. "Thank you. If you can really do it, I owe you a favor."
After a few more polite words, the female knight named Lavinia was called away by her companions, leaving Hao Ren scratching his chin thoughtfully.
The sound of iron boots knocking on the ground woke him up from his thoughts. Hao Ren looked up and saw the valiant Veronica standing in front of him. The princess nodded slightly to him. "Sir Guardian, it's time for us to go."
After a short rest, the knights not only readjusted their mental state but also greatly recovered their physical strength. When they went into battle again, they were full of energy. This time, they had nothing to worry about. Under the leadership of the princess, the team began to move at full speed toward the northern fortress.
As the saying goes, the mountain in front of you dies. Even if the combat professionals in Collow were as strong as superhumans, it would still take them half a day to travel from the Shadowy Forest to the northern fortress. But since he had just regained contact with the outside world, Hao Ren's mood had become lighter. He regarded the journey as a sightseeing tour. Although he was still surrounded by the twisted and dark world of Chaos, the fortress shrouded in light in the distance was still a stunning sight. As he walked side by side with Veronica and Morian, he inquired about the history of the fortress, which was built in the 22nd year of the founding of Taros, and the mountains in the distance gradually became clearer.
But just as they were about to reach the foot of the fortress, a palpitating feeling suddenly surged in Hao Ren's head. He immediately stopped and looked in the direction of the fortress. At this distance, the towering white rock wall of the western fortress was already in front of him. The ancient rune protection and eagle relief on the wall were clearly visible. At the top of the 33 magic towers in front of the fortress, the gold-edged Taros eagle flag with a blue background was fluttering in the wind.
Veronica was a step behind when she realized what was happening. The royal princess furrowed her brows as she sensed that the presence of Chaos was close at hand. The evil energy that was the enemy of Order had stimulated her bloodline, startling her.
The princess waved her hand and made a warning gesture. The knights immediately crouched down, and under the cover of the nearby rocks, the team climbed to the top of a hill. Hao Ren lay beside Veronica and looked out.
He saw a wasteland covered with grayish-white gravel extending out from the hill to the towering white stone walls of Fort West in the distance. And on the wasteland, a patch of grayish-black "mud" was surging towards the walls in waves.
It was not mud, but a monster born from the Chaos.
Monsters attacking the fortress!
On this side of the Shadowy Forest, the Chaos no longer appeared in the form of fog, but in the gray-white gravel that covered the ground. Black smoke was constantly spewing out from the barren land. When the black smoke left the ground, it quickly swirled and condensed into a hideous monster in a few seconds. Thousands of monsters condensed from the black smoke rushed toward Fort West in a disorderly manner, like waves crashing against the embankment. There were so many of them, and they were so densely arranged that they looked as thick and muddy as mud covering the earth from the distant hills. Hao Ren could not help but think of the Black Tide he had seen in Hercules' sealed cage not long ago. At this moment, the tide of monsters in front of him was even more powerful than the Black Tide of that day.
Because there was no Hercules here to restrain the scale of the tide of monsters, these pure monsters born from the Chaos were more ferocious, more ruthless, and more endless!

Countless such explosions bloomed on every section of the wall, and the shock wave even shook the physical part of the fortress. The white stone wall trembled in the explosion, and gravel kept bursting out from the gaps between the boulders. From a distance, it looked as if the outer wall of the fortress was spewing smoke.
This was the most thrilling event in Collow: the evil forces dormant in the Chaos rose up and directly shook the barrier of the World of Order!
In the past seven years, and in every tide of Chaos in the past 100 centuries in Collow, this kind of battle was repeated countless times. Although the Light of Order could stop the infiltration of the forces of Chaos, the forces of Chaos also had their own way of attack. The monsters born from the twisted laws were the cannon fodder and vanguard of this war. Every once in a while, they would attack the World of Order. If they broke through a barrier, then the border of the land of Order would retreat, and the living space of mortals would shrink again.
In Veronica's knowledge, humans and elves had lost more than 40% of the land on the Ansu Continent alone. The once fertile wilderness, the peaceful and quiet Shadowy Forest, the lush Dark Swamp, the beautiful Gray Sea … With the extinguishing of the Furnace Towers, the Spire of Flames, and even the Sunscorch Tower, the barrier was broken, the line of defense retreated, and the mortal races traded space for time. These once peaceful lands had become forbidden zones of death in the Chaos. All of this was caused by the scene in front of her.
The Chaos was coming.
Veronica clenched the sword in her hand and gestured to the knights with the other hand to get ready for battle.
In the front line of the Chaos, the forces of Order would be weakened, and the dark side of the Sea of Carnos would become active to the point that it could materialize at any time. Even if the knights hid outside the battlefield, they would be discovered by the ubiquitous evil forces sooner or later. So the battle was inevitable.
In the front line of the Chaos, cowardice and escape were meaningless. Whether you had the courage to draw your sword or not, the only outcome was to fight.
The knights unsheathed their swords, and the power of magic began to surge in the air. The runes on the royal armor lit up one by one, reflecting the determined faces of the young people.
In Collow, every tide of Chaos was a process in which the mortal race kept retreating and dying. The dark side of the Sea of Carnos erupted from all corners of the continent and devoured everything along the way. The mortal race was always fighting bravely, but looking at the wasteland around them, even an outsider like Hao Ren could see the situation of the war. The forces of Order were constantly shrinking, and the mortal race was only using their flesh and blood and layers of defense to resist. All they were doing was delaying.
Before they could retreat, they would drag it out until the Chaos dissipated, until the Sea of Carnos calmed down.
No one felt that there was anything wrong with this. This was how their ancestors had survived. If there was anything to complain about, it was probably that they were the generation that coincidentally happened to be in the Chaos Outbreak's generation. They were far less fortunate than those who lived in peaceful years.
"Are you going to help with these people?" Hao Ren turned his head and glanced at Veronica.
The princess knight pointed at the battlefield with her sword. "Rush down the ramp on the left and hit the monster's flank. If you can use your powerful explosive magic to temporarily stop the Chaos from condensing, we can open up a gap. I will send a signal to the fortress before that. As long as the fortress guards have the most basic military training, this cooperation will be successful. We will rush into the safe zone, and the flow of the Chaos will be disrupted. "
Hao Ren did not quite understand what 'flow of the Chaos' meant, but he believed that Veronica was an expert in this field, so he agreed to the plan. But he was still a little curious. "You are really not afraid at all."
"Most of the cowards have died in the past seven years," Veronica smiled valiantly and raised her sword. "The barrier will eventually collapse, but not today!"
The knights roared in unison, "The barrier will eventually collapse, but not today!"
