Chapter 193: The Wasteland Village

Huangling Village is a small village with a population of more than 300, located in a hilly area more than 100 kilometers west of the Xifeng Mountains.

The village of Huangling has many mountains and few lands. The real source of income for villagers is to use human specialties to the city of sinking not far away, and exchange various strange things with the Forgotten. The Forgotten is the self-proclaimed by the residents of the City of Sinking, and the villagers of Huangling prefer to call them monsters.

Lizardmen, taurens, lions, lichs, demons, etc., all kinds of strange creatures can be found here. Below the City of Desolation, there are underground cave groups that run through half of the Bell Empire. There are countless plane cracks connecting various planes. Sometimes, some creatures who have traveled through plane cracks for various reasons come here. They struggle here to survive, and those who survive will eventually come to this city of Desolation.

The food supply of the city of sinking is mainly due to some cavemen tribes in the cave group. Those cavemen rely on the light and heat of the ground springs and lava to plant some ground moss and raise some creatures that rely on ground moss for their livelihoods. The excess food will supply the city of sinking. Of course, when there is no excess food, they must also ensure the supply of the city of sinking. The city that gathers creatures in various planes has never been a good place.

However, except for food, the cavemen were in short supply. There was a lot of minerals in the underground caves, but the cavemen were not able to extract them. Therefore, more supplies must be provided by humans.

This is how Huangling Village was built. The City of Desolation needs human supplies, and the human world also needs novel items from various planes in the City of Desolation. Huangling Village is a place to transit.

Those who can stay in such a deserted place and trade in non-human creatures in the sinking city are not good people. Mercenaries, deserters, thieves, and bandits are the main components of the members of the deserted village. A small number of native residents have also been damaged by these extremely vicious people. Therefore, ordinary regular business groups will not appear here, and the only result is that they will swallow the goods alive.

Therefore, when the villagers heard the dull sound of horse hooves on the road outside the village, they all picked up the guys and rushed to the fence at the entrance of the village.

Regular business groups will not run to such places. Merchants who dare to run to such places will generally contact them in advance. Therefore, uninvited teams with a large number of horses are likely to be regular soldiers.

In such places like this, where there are a large number of vicious people, it is impossible for the empire to exist peacefully. Since the deserted village has been established, the army's clearance operations will occasionally occur. However, once it is adjacent to the city of sinking, it is impossible to garrison for a long time. In addition, the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the clearance costs are too high, so such an action can only be carried out once a day.

The method once and for all is naturally to clear out the bandits here and then build a military fort here to guard the main road. Unfortunately, the city of sinking requires human supplies. The construction of a military fort blocks the trade route. The only consequence will only provoke the monsters in the city of sinking.

After several construction and destruction cycles, the military finally gave up this futile action and just allowed the bandits to gather. Then, the impact was really huge, so they sent troops here to make a deal.

Wherever they were, the villagers in Huangling Village were very familiar with the army's advance and suppression, and almost formed a pattern. When the army arrived, they searched the guys first to see if they could fight. If they could fight, they would beat the army back. If they couldn't fight, they would run away quickly.

Because they are not kind, the proportion of the more than 500 villagers with combat capabilities is very high. Nearly 400 men and women picked up their weapons and came to the fence. Then they were stunned. A torrent of steel was crossing the small hill opposite, rushing towards the entrance of the village with great momentum.

All the villagers of Huangling Village can guarantee that they are absolutely not dazzled. What they see is a heavy iron cavalry. Both men and horses are wearing thick heavy armor, but the one in the lead is holding a staff, which is inappropriate.

However, when the villagers of Absolute Leader saw this scene, they had no absurd feeling at all. Instead, they were dry and at a loss.

The Huangling Village is located in some hilly areas, with a steady terrain. Not to mention running, it would be great to stand firm in the mountain path. However, this team of heavy-armed iron cavalry ran the speed of the light cavalry on the hilly mountain roads.

In the novel and biography, when a good horse is described, it is often described as climbing mountains and crossing the mountain, like walking on a flat ground, but those who have ridden horses know that it is simply a dream to want to walk on a flat ground between mountain trees.

So many people think they are dreaming that even if there are really thousands of horses on flat ground, it is impossible to have dozens of them appear at a time, right?

If there is such a horse, it must be used in the most elite troops, which means that the heavy-armed iron cavalry that came is likely to be the elite troops of the empire.

Isn't the Trisha Alliance fighting the Abyss monsters? How could their most elite troops appear in such a deserted place when they have time? Everyone looked at each other and was at a loss.

I don’t know who suddenly shouted: “Are we…run first?”

Hearing this call, the villagers at a loss suddenly scattered and rushed to the opposite side of the mountain road where the heavy cavalry came.

When the villagers of the deserted island led the village to escape, they did not open the fence gate that was blocked on the mountain road. The leader took out a scroll, then tore open the seal and threw it on the fence.

With a violent explosion, the entire fence was blown up.

A whole team of heavy cavalry rushed through the fence without stopping, passed through the Huangling Village, and ran towards the direction of the city of sinking.

The villagers who were running around heard the sound of hooves and realized that the heavy cavalry was not coming for them. The villagers who breathed a sigh of relief all said that this was the case. How could they provoke such elite troops? Even the doors were bombed with scrolls. They really burned with too much money.

This team of heavy cavalry was naturally led by Gris. He didn't want to waste too much money, but took the opportunity to test the power of the scroll he made.

In fact, due to the material of the scroll, this level 5 explosive reel only exerts the power of level 4. If it can be replaced with the skin of the middle and high-level monsters of fire, the power can be even greater.
