The Mist Forest is located in a vast area north of the northern border of the Hanhai Empire. It reaches the ice field where water drips into ice. Therefore, the northerly the Mist Forest is, the more harsh the environmental conditions are, and it is difficult to survive. There are even poisonous insects and beasts everywhere. Even the most powerful mercenary team dare not go deep into it.

Because the environment in the Mist Forest is extremely harsh, the barbarians living in it have grown up in such harsh environments since childhood, and the fittest survives. The barbarians have become as powerful as wild beasts. However, the harsh environment also makes the barbarians mortality rate extremely high, and their population size has not been able to increase explosively.

In addition to the years of encirclement and hunting of the Hanhai Empire, facing the powerful Hanhai Empire, the barbarians have been driven to a more harsh area north of the central part of the foggy forest, and the barbarians have become increasingly difficult to survive.

Although the leaders of several generations of barbarians wanted to lead barbarian warriors to defeat the Hanhai Empire, so that the barbarians could reproduce and survive in the moist and fertile land in the south, the Hanhai Empire was powerful, and the city walls that were built for thousands of miles and the 200,000 border guards stationed in the garrison became their insurmountable barriers.

Every year, thousands of barbarian warriors die near the city wall. If they have been in the long run, they will face the crisis of extermination. Although the frequency of barbarians attacking south in recent years has become more and more frequent in recent years, when facing the well-equipped Hanhai Border Defense Forces, they have failed in addition to failure, and their strength has been increasingly weakened.

The hunting orders of the Hanhai Empire made the living conditions of the barbarians even worse. The original living environment was very harsh. With the arrival of those hunting mercenaries, countless barbarian tribes were destroyed, and the captured barbarians were sold to various places as slaves, living a life worse than death.

Because of the continuous killing, the barbarians had a blood hatred against the soldiers of the Hanhai Empire who entered the mercenary group of mercenaries entering the fog forest. The battle between the two sides in the fog forest has never stopped. However, driven by interests, the mercenary group still has a steady stream of people entering the fog forest to hunt and capture the savages every year, because in their eyes, the barbarians are like wild animals, eating raw meat and drinking blood, and only knowing how to kill is not worthy of sympathy.

The opposition arising from hatred cannot be reconciled, and the officials of the Hanhai Empire were behind all of this because they wanted to eliminate the barbarians and solve the hidden dangers from the northern region, and even if the means were cruel, they would do whatever they could.

Lin Chuan, the young commander of the Nanchuan Army, sent people to the foggy forest to contact the barbarians in the hope that they could form an alliance with the barbarians who had difficulty in survival. In Lin Chuan's heart, [31 Novel Network       Update Fast] Barbarians are not as unbearable as described by the Hanhai Empire. They also have their own beliefs. They were not born for killing, but were just forced by the harsh environment. If they were allowed to migrate to a warm and humid area to live, they would definitely settle down.

The so-called enemy is a friend. Lin Chuan wants to capture the Far East, but the strength of the Nanchuan army is difficult to compete with the Hanhai Empire, so he hopes that the barbarians can restrain the Hanhai Empire's troops in the northern part of the Hanhai Empire, and his promise to the barbarians was to allow them to reproduce and survive in the Far East, which is also a sympathy for their encounter.

The reason why Lin Chuan did this was not only beneficial to the war in the Hanhai Empire, but also contained a hint of selfishness, that is, the barbarian warriors were very powerful. If they could join the Nanchuan Army and become part of the Nanchuan Army, the strength of the Nanchuan Army would be higher.

Since Jia Hong and the Nanchuan guards crossed the city walls on the northern border of the Hanhai Empire, they went straight into the foggy forest to find the barbarian tribe, hoping to contact the barbarian leaders and finally reach an alliance.

However, the foggy forest is too vast. The towering ancient trees block the sunlight. The light is extremely dim when walking in the foggy forest. From time to time, they will be attacked by unknown beasts. The guards lost more than a dozen people in just one week to enter the forest, while the barbarians are still missing.

In the forest covered with dead branches and leaves, Lei Long and others were advancing towards the depths of the forest in combat formations. All the soldiers were unsheathed their swords and guarding the messenger Jia Hong in the center, ready to fight at any time.

The one-armed sergeant Lei Long held a huge battle axe in his hand and observed the situation around him indifferently. Suddenly, the sound of dead branches being trampled in front of him came. He immediately raised his right hand and stopped. The soldiers behind him were all nervous, staring at the front as if they were facing a great enemy.

Several agile scout warriors drilled out of thick thorns and appeared in the sight of Lei Long and others. Sergeant Zhou Rui rushed to Lei Long panting and said, "Sir, there is no road ahead, it is a steep cliff."

After hearing this, Lei Long ordered the soldiers to be alert. He took out the foggy forest map purchased from the Hanhai people and spread it on the ground, lowered his head to check, but soon he frowned.

"Sergeant Thunder Dragon, what's wrong?" The messenger Jia Hong asked when he saw the Thunder Dragon's frown.

Thunder Dragon replied: "We have reached the edge of the map, and there is an area that has not been explored yet."

These maps were drawn by a mercenary team that penetrated into the foggy forest based on memory, so they were not only rough, but also unmarked in many places. What’s more important is that more places are large blank spaces, which are the so-called dangerous areas.

"From here to the northwest, there were mercenaries there who had met barbarians, so let's turn to the northwest." The chief sergeant Thunder Dragon pondered for a moment, then put away the map and gave instructions.

The team continued to set out and headed straight to the northwest where the savages once appeared.

Sergeant Zhou Rui and five scout soldiers walked in front of the team to continue exploring the way, but there was no road in the dense forest. They could only chop out a road while catching them, and their speed was greatly affected.

"Be careful!" Sergeant Zhou Rui suddenly saw a black shadow jumping out from the front of the left, shouted loudly, and the sword had already slashed out.

"Puff!"

Blood splattered, and the body of an unknown beast with fangs was slashed into two pieces by a sharp sword. The internal organs sprinkled one of the scout warriors, and the attacked scout warriors were also scared.

"Leave quickly, the smell of blood will attract other beasts." The Sergeant Chief Thunder Dragon rushed up from behind. Seeing the killed beast, he immediately ordered that everyone dare not delay and crossed the corpse and continued to move forward. Within a moment after he left, a group of strong wild wolves appeared in the place where they were just standing and began to bite the dead barbarian, dripping blood.

Until nightfall, Lei Long and others did not find the location marked on the map. The Mist Forest was like a huge maze, exhausted and found nothing. In the end, they had to find a leeward valley to build a camp. (To be continued)
