The light screen of the detector showed the records of the past hundred years, as well as many statistics of the Cracked Scale Forest.
As Hayashi River and Amod read on, their expressions turned serious. According to the records, in the past hundred years, the two observation stations in the Cracked Scale Forest had experienced seven such tragedies, and every time, no one had survived.
What happened last night at the observation station of the Split Scale County was the eighth tragedy.
The conclusion was — the curse in the depths of the Cracked Scale Forest.
"Miss Yi Xing, is the curse of the Cracked Scale Forest real?" Ah Mo De's face was filled with fear. He started to panic again.
For the residents of the Split Scale County, they had heard about the curse in the depths of the Split Scale Forest since they were young. It had become a shadow in their childhood.
Of course, as the grandson of the White Dwarf Army Commander, and his teacher was a Mechanic Master, Amod knew many secrets of the depths of the Cracked Scale Forest. He also knew that the so-called curse was not real.
He was simply afraid of this kind of strange phenomenon …
Hayashi River looked at Yi Xing. He knew that the recording in the detector was only for others to see.
The upper echelons of the Scaled Rift Canyon definitely had some secrets that no one knew about.
Last time, on their way to the Split Scale County, Yi Xing had probed the edge of the Split Scale Forest. At that time, her nervous expression had made Hayashi River feel strange.
Yi Xing took out another detector. It was the one he had used last time. He turned it on and handed it to the two of them.
Di di …
Looking at the recording on the screen, Hayashi River and Amod's expressions changed. They glanced at each other in shock.
"The chaotic energy flow of [Blazing Alloy] …"
According to the records, there was a huge amount of [Blazing Alloy] stored in the depths of the Cracked Scale Forest, where the Cracked Scale Furnace was abandoned.
The energy fluctuations of this alloy would erupt every once in a while, like a terrifying turbulence that could directly crush a living being.
This was the truth behind the curse of the Cracked Scale Forest.
That was why the Cracked Scale Forest was so dangerous. Even airships were forbidden to fly above the forest …
"The eruption of this kind of chaotic energy flow has no fixed pattern, and its intensity is also fluctuating."
Yi Xing frowned, her face serious. "But once it reaches the observation station, the energy turbulence will be very strong. We must set up defensive measures. Otherwise, once the energy turbulence engulfs the entire Scaled Canyon, it will be troublesome. "
Amod muttered, "It shouldn't be that bad. I've never heard of such a tragedy in the history of the Cracked Scale County."
The White Dwarf was restless. He was very afraid and wanted to go back.
Yi Xing glanced at it and said, "The history of the Split Scale County is less than a thousand years old. Why do you think it was built?"
Hearing this, Amod's face was filled with fear and the white dwarf's face became even paler.
Lin Chuan didn't say anything. He was a little scared and didn't want to stay there anymore. He wanted to go back.
"Don as. If it's really that dangerous, I'll escape faster than anyone else. My life is very valuable. "
Yi Xing smiled. He was very happy that he had finally scared this young man. "After so many years, we have developed a very advanced defense interference device. As long as it is placed around the forest, it can reduce the fluctuations of the chaotic energy flow."
"The Scale Hua is. as, the as, as, as you. This Mountain Scale Forest. Forest as
The Grey Smelter, Blue Agate Manor, and the Cracked Scale County were in charge of controlling the energy turbulence. These three forces were in charge of monitoring the Cracked Scale Forest.
Flipping through the records, Hayashi River finally understood why the higher-ups of the Cracked Scale Canyon were so lenient towards the adventurers.
The more [Blazing Alloy] the adventurers excavated, the lower the frequency of the energy turbulence, and the lesser the damage to the Cracked Scale Canyon.
Even if the adventurers had any gains, they would have to sell the [Blazing Alloy] to the White Dwarf Kingdom. They were not allowed to bring it out of the country.
The White Dwarf Kingdom offered a high price for the [Blazing Alloy], 10% higher than the market price.
This way, a trade chain was formed. This was the reason why the mercenaries and adventurers came to Grey Smelter.
However, without any defensive equipment, it was extremely dangerous to venture deep into the Cracked Scale Canyon.
Such a trade chain was formed by the lives of countless people.
"People die for wealth …" Hayashi River muttered.
"Get ready. We'll set up the energy interference equipment in the afternoon. Once it's done, you can come to my Blue Agate Manor to taste some fine wine. "
Yi Xing smiled and looked at Hayashi River.
The latter understood, as well as the item that Yi Xing had promised.
He really did not want to go with them, but with his status, he would have to take over these matters in the future.
Hayashi River frowned slightly. He sensed that Yi Xing did not reveal all the secrets. Was the strange figure that Baimi, the survivor from last night, had encountered an illusion, or was it real?
…
In the afternoon.
Hover cars set off from the observation station and drove south along the forest road.
The fog in the forest became thicker and thicker. It filled the surroundings, and visibility became worse and worse.
In the car, Hayashi River and the rest were fully armed and equipped with interference equipment.
Buzz …
The square-shaped interference equipment was activated, and countless tiny light waves spread out and covered the surface of their bodies, forming a layer of interference light shield.
Hayashi River used his mental energy to probe the interference light waves, and found that the frequency of the two was somewhat similar.
He wondered if this meant that mental energy could also resist the energy turbulence of the Blazing Alloy.
"Meow …"
The Blue Kitty also wore an interference equipment. The little fellow twisted its body, not used to it.
After the sudden death last night, Yi Xing was worried about leaving the little blue cat at the observation station, so she brought it with her.
"Sister Yi Xing, how did you choose the location of the two observation stations?" Hayashi River asked before they reached their destination.
Yi Xing shook her head. She did not know either. The two observation stations had existed before the Split Scale Prefecture was built.
It was said that the two observation stations had been built longer than the Gray Furnace.
As they spoke, the hover cars stopped, and everyone got off one after another.
Gusts of cold wind blew, revealing a gloomy coldness. In the fog, the trees in the forest were black, and so was the ground.
There was a fork in the road ahead, and a road sign stood in the middle. The road sign had long since rotted.
Hayashi River looked at Yi Xing, a little confused. This was the destination …
Di di …
Yi Xing held the detector and frowned. "The intensity of the turbulence ahead is a little high. The hover cars can only go up to here. Without the interference equipment, the cars will malfunction."
Hearing this, Hayashi River also frowned. He dispelled the idea of releasing the Little Whites, and only activated Little White 1 to try and monitor the surroundings.
The Heart Warrior level bodyguards and the army elites walked on the periphery, surrounding Yi Xing and the others in the middle. They slowly moved forward.
Around the forest, the cold wind blew. Amod got closer and closer, wanting to stick to Hayashi River.
"Brother, if you really encounter danger like this, we'll both be dead." Hayashi River rolled his eyes, reminding the young white dwarf not to be so afraid.
"There's no choice. I've been afraid of these things since I was young, and never dared to come near the Split Scale Forest, "Amod muttered.
He was good at hammering people, but he was afraid of these strange things from the bottom of his heart.
After moving forward for a while, Hayashi River found some interference equipment. After his spiritual energy overflowed, it could stay in the surroundings for a long time before it was destroyed by the turbulence.
The mechanical white mouse's [Night Vision Eagle Eye] was also somewhat useful, but it could not monitor a radius of a thousand meters. It could only reach a distance of 200 to 300 meters.
Suddenly, Hayashi River turned his head slightly. He 'saw' a few corpses in the forest beside the road. Their bodies had all exploded, as if they had been crushed by a huge force.
From the clothes of the corpses, Hayashi River judged that they were from the Gray Bar Mercenary Group. They had been dead for a day.
His footsteps slightly paused, and Hayashi River followed the team and continued forward.
After moving forward for another half an hour, they could vaguely see a building shrouded in fog.
"We're finally here …"
Yi Xing spoke, her expression slightly relaxed. Moving forward in such a dangerous forest, she was also a little nervous.
Everyone present heaved a sigh of relief. This place was filled with strangeness. After setting up the interference equipment, they should quickly leave.
Suddenly, the eyeball pattern on his forehead lit up, and Hayashi River felt some pain. He could not help but be shocked, and just as he was about to warn them …
Plop plop plop plop …
Everyone present fell to the ground, including Yi Xing, they all fainted.
"Meow …"
The Blue Kitty jumped down from Yi Xing's shoulder and looked at its master. One person and one cat squinted at each other.
Hayashi River: "…"
Blue Kitty: "…"
"What the hell is this? Why did they all fall? What happened to protecting the weak … "Hayashi River secretly shouted.
Roar …
A low roar sounded, and in the dense forest on the side of the road, a huge figure appeared and slowly walked over.
Hayashi River's expression changed, and he suddenly closed his eyes and fell to the ground.
At the same time, the little blue cat also swayed for a while, fell to the ground, rolled a circle, and hid under Amod's disheveled hair.
