Invincible Chapter 674
The caravan left the base, and traveled at a speed of about 10 kilometers per hour in the area ravaged by evil.
The farther away from the city-state, the more obvious the influence of evil.
When Kane and his party traveled eastward from Wharton to Zuatu, they directly broke into the territory of Zuatu, thinking that since then, all the eastward areas are normal areas. Even if the vegetation is not living very well, it still has life, not A deformed creature or simply barren.
By now, Kane and Rohan have understood that these so-called normal areas, from a macro perspective, are just oases in the sand sea, and outside the city-state boundaries, they are basically eaten away by evil.
To describe it vividly, evil is like the black erosion area on the soap bubble. This colorless area is like an expanding black spot. The final rupture of the soap bubble is caused by the collapse of this area.
The same is true of evil, it is like an eternally hungry monster, constantly destroying the living area, turning it into a barren land. Even the Negative Realm, which is more terrifying than it, has the characteristics of a deadly abyss.
In the morning Rohan received bad news.
It was Kane who used the special communication method between the main body and the echo body to tell that the detection of the Heart of Darkness failed.
It was a very helpless failure. Kane, Ysera, Alexstrasza and the dragons could not find anything in the place that should have been the Heart of Darkness.
That's pretty much the last thing Kane wants to see.
All the prophetic information became unreliable at this moment, and the clues were completely broken.
Kane's latest speculation is that the Void is behind all this.
Well, only the Void series that "returns everything to nothing" has the ability and motivation to play this level of world destruction.
However, this is just speculation, with no real evidence and little sense of timing.
Rohan didn't know what Kane planned to do next.
But he still trusts Kane very much. When creating the echo body, the division of labor is clear. Kane is the macro-oriented, while he is the detail-oriented. The core goal is to find out the truth and find the key monster.
That being the case, Kane doesn't need to worry about traveling the world or finding a piece of land to support himself. If he is needed, Kane will naturally tell him.
On his side, Kane did not have a rigid arrangement. He fully utilized the qualities of a senior reincarnator to explore and explore ways to find clues and solve various problems encountered.
Therefore, Rohan was not discouraged by the bad news. On the contrary, he became more competitive, hoping to prove his worth. Even if he still can't escape the fate of a meteor that is fleeting in the end, he still wants this flash to shine brightly.
In fact, Rohan's guess was wrong. Kane quickly made a decision after discovering that the Heart of Darkness did not exist, and the prophetic information was useless, with just one word, "Withdraw!" '
In the words he told Alexstrasza and Ysera: "Azeroth has countless crises, and we don't have time to spend too much time in this world. This round, I will admit defeat."
After hearing this, the two queens also expressed their understanding.
Kane regards the fight with the boss behind the scenes as a long-term round contest.
In the first round, the unnamed high-ranking priest successfully sacrificed, bringing Kane and others down to this world.
Now Kane simply admits that he lost this round, and he doesn't want to have to exhaust his hair stem.
Where did you lose?
Kane has the ability to go back. He will go back first, and then open the passage from there to take the dragon army back.
And this series of operations cost a lot. Lost at this point.
These energy sources are enough to fight 3-4 big battles with the Scourge. Now that they are ready to make such a fuss, of course they will lose.
But that's not all. When Kane is free and ready, he will come to play the second round.
As for when that was, sorry, can't say for sure.
Before that, he played against the master behind the scenes of the unknown priest, took away his savings for many days, and created shadow trolls, holy light puppets, etc.
What should I do?
Kane thinks that this can only be regarded as a small victory, just like when two armies are at war, in a certain local encounter, his own scouts lead the battle group and eat up a small group of elite troops of the other side.
Kane didn't think that the owner of the nameless priest was the boss behind all of this. Kane thinks that the other party is not that forceful enough to come up with such a grand operation of devouring the world.
It is precisely because of this kind of thinking that Kane also thinks it is a normal arrangement for Echo Body Rohan to stay in this world.
Searching for intelligence, looking for a suitable bridgehead to establish a point... The two armies confront each other, and the reconnaissance brigade is doing these things, which are very similar in nature to Rohan's current course of action.
So, in the early morning of the second day when Rohan continued to slowly go to Helgra with the caravan, Kane disappeared directly after completing a contact with Rohan.
The dragons passed the time by practicing on the Asylum. Anyway, Kane had already assigned them homework, which was very suitable for killing time.
As soon as Kane left, some gods who had been hiding before came to life.
They can also be regarded as the landlords of the Zandalar Islands. When it comes to hearing and eyesight, they are naturally not comparable to Kane who has just arrived, especially in Sanctuary. It can be said that they have their eyeliner everywhere.
Due to their own weakness, they did not dare to show their faces in public, showing their demeanor in front of Kane and his party. They are aware of Kane's divinity (mainly caused by the little finger of the left hand, which is vague and general perception, leading to misrecognition), knowing that Kane is capable of defeating and devouring them, then they will be worse than now, It may even disappear completely.
And now, the opportunity has come.
While they were actively making preparations including exploration, they planned to contact Ysera and Alexstrasza, and at the same time warned their clergy and believers not to get too deeply involved in the affairs of the Sun Temple.
They didn't realize that Rohan was the echo body of Kane, but they noticed the excitement of the sun god Sabei, and guessed that the guy seemed to want to benefit from the foreign gods and complete self-salvation.
They actually have the same purpose as Sabey.
They don't want to perish with this world that is heading towards destruction.
It's just that they chose non-violent means, which naturally has a lot to do with their weakness and lack of combat power.
Sabei seems to be hard. To be honest, they are happy to see that no matter who is weakened, it is a good thing for them.
As for why the priests exploited them like that, they would still remind and warn them.
The core is that the time concept of gods is not comparable to that of mortals. They have plenty of time to watch you build tall buildings, watch you entertain guests and friends, and watch your buildings collapse.
The god of faith is subject to the power of faith. But times are different, their own conditions are different, and the spiritual outlook of the clergy of the denominations and the conditions of the believers they shepherd are also different.
Compared with mortals, one of the advantages of gods is that gods continue to come back again, and they have the opportunity to extend the operation for a long time. Whoever can have the last laugh is the biggest winner.
For them, sometimes suffering from temporary anger and enduring humiliation is also for survival.
It doesn't take long, after hundreds of thousands of years, these priests and believers have long been ancient, and the deeds at this time are gradually forgotten. Even if there are records, they have become rumors. questioned.
At that time, if conditions permit, they can put up the signboard again and get their face back.
It was precisely because of the warning of the Loa gods that Zu Atu's second hunting team failed to make it.
All the temples have said that the failure of the Tusk Cavalry to return and lose contact is enough to explain the problem. The other party may have powerful helpers to respond. Zuatul is not afraid of fighting because of the large number of enemies, but he will not fight blindly.
Why do you want to fight against it at the cost of losing your troops? Can you get a lot of benefits, or a powerful force?
Therefore, either the Sun Temple can persuade everyone, including using money, or the Sun Temple can play on its own, and stop thinking about using public power to handle its own private affairs.
Uzula was naturally extremely annoyed, and even decided that Rohan was the target she was looking for because of the annihilation of the Tusk Cavalry.
But her IQ is online, and the alarm bell has already sounded. Thanks to the public combat power that was destroyed this time, if the temple's combat power is brought up this time, will the Sun Temple be able to survive in the next few days? I'm afraid there will be question marks if I stand still in Zuatu.
The enemy is so powerful and doesn't have enough combat power, so let's bear with it first.
This time Uzula did not act arbitrarily, she asked Sabei for instructions, and when she reported again, she played a word game, which made people feel that the initial stage of her operation was very smooth, successfully found the target, and dispatched the combat force in time. His combat power was unusually strong, so he was stumped.
Relying on such a report, Uzula covered up those shortcomings in the operation. Sabei also tried her best to say a few words to her, and agreed to her plan to unite with the power of other city-states, the Sun Temple, and work together to take down the powerful enemy .
So, while Rohan and the others were moving forward, the Temple of the Sun had sent pterodactyl knights to deliver letters to the Temple of the Sun in various city-states, including Helgra.
Like yesterday, after marching for a whole day, the caravan camped in the evening, this time it was far away again, because the porters and pack animals were in good condition, and Dajia also wanted to stay as far away from Zuatu as possible.
The environment here is already very bad. Not only is it barren and desolate, but it is also dangerous. There may be monsters lurking between the jagged rocks and the misty dust.
In the past, Darga's caravans traveled to this area and basically relied on a dog after camping.
The dog's keen sense of smell can distinguish the abnormal monster from the fishy and rancid smell, so as to warn.
But this time with Rohan, there is no need for a dog to be the protagonist of the night watch.
As the son of nature of an advanced combat class, creating a place of nature is the basic ability of Rohan. And basically he doesn't need to pay for the dry goods himself.
Yesterday, it relied on the spirit and flesh essence of the fang knights. Today, through accelerating reincarnation, many distorted things in an area are destroyed in advance, and then like entering a new stage, a small piece of natural beauty is created in the mode of planting and sprouting. Place.
This is equivalent to a safe house, and Rohan has a lot of advantages in it, not to mention there are two velociraptors, their digestive system is unusual, there are few things they can't digest, and they can even eat certain stones.
With these two gluttons foraging nearby all night, the chances of the camp being attacked would be much smaller.
However, tonight is not a person, but a god, and Gongke came to the door...
