Chapter 262 261.The Living Forest

  The layout of Heisong Town is different from other places.

  Ordinary small towns, extending in all directions, a road runs through the town, and buildings are built in line with the roads, row upon row.

  Hey Pine Town is more like a fortress than a city.

Surrounding the town, there are high barriers, on the barriers are pointed wooden thorns, under the thick planks, rangers in leather armor are stationed at the gate, and on the tower, they look like a battle. The appearance of the state.

  This is a small town on the edge of the Black Forest. It can be regarded as the deepest place where ordinary humans live in the Black Forest.

Lu Zan could see the older men working. They cut down the trees in the Black Forest and made them into timber and transported them. There were also some who were basking in animal skins, dried meat, and all kinds of herbs. It seemed more like a temporary place here. A stronghold rather than a small town of life.

  "There are no people here all year round. People will stay here only when they are relatively safe. In two days, they will leave and return to the outside of the Black Forest."

   explained Birmingham.

   "Why don't they live outside the Black Forest, it should be safer then?"

   Lu Yi couldn't help asking.

  "This used to be outside the Black Forest"

   Birmingham's voice became low.

  "The Black Forest is alive. Every demonic wave is an expansion of the Black Forest. The places swept by the demonic wave will breed trees and eventually become part of the Black Forest. This is why we have to resist the demonic wave."

   "In other words, this town was originally a small town outside the Black Forest, but it was gradually engulfed by the forest because of the arrival of the magic wave."

  Lu Yi has a clear understanding.

  It seems that this is the real way of pollution in the kingdom of night.

The magic wave at the time of the blood moon will slaughter humans and pollute the land. The Black Forest takes the opportunity to expand, like a fungus blanket covering the earth. Perhaps this foreign land was originally a normal planet. The Black Forest is only a small part, but it is accompanied by the magic wave once. After another invasion, the Black Forest eventually covered most of the land. After the Black Forest completely occupied the last inch of pure land, the Kingdom of Night would also fall into Eternal Night.

  He turned his head and glanced at the deep forest. Perhaps it was once a farmland, a school, and a home.

   But now, it's all bad land.

  This is also the reason why the kingdom of night needs to resist the demonic wave. It is indeed a way to avoid the demonic wave and let the residents retreat beyond the influence of the demonic wave, but this will inevitably lead to the fall of the land, and ultimately irresistible retreat.

   "If you seek peace through struggle, you will survive, and if you seek peace through compromise, you will die."

  Lu Yi said with emotion.

"well said!"

  Birmingham heard Lu Zin's words, his eyes widened, and there was a sense of "worthy of my little brother" comfort in it.

   "If everyone can have your enlightenment, then there is no need to worry that the demonic wave will destroy us, because there is one me down, and there are tens of thousands of me."

   "Is there anyone who is unwilling to resist the magic wave?"

  Lu Kizuna heard the meaning in Birmingham's dialect.

   "Many people, their perception of the Black Forest is not intuitive, they feel that they are just monsters, they are in a safe inland, they have lost their sense of crisis."

  Although he is young, Birmingham looks like he is concerned about the country and the people, and he is very ambitious.

  Like the town of Dry Water that Lu Zan had visited before, the people of the Hai family, and the townspeople there were ignorant, ignorant, and numb. Now it seems that there is probably a safe environment there, which has allowed cults to breed.

  Internal and external troubles, the kingdom of night is at stake.

  Lu Yi saw that the commander and a mage were communicating with the person in charge of Heisong Town.

  "You must leave here immediately and head to the Black Fort. The red moon will rise soon, and the magic wave will become colder here and there will be more monsters. With your weapons, there is no way to defend."

  The commander spoke to the steward of Heisong Town in an orderly tone.

  "We will be evacuated tonight, and the last batch of materials have to be loaded into the truck. These rangers will also go to the Black Fort with us."

  The steward pointed to the herbs and animal skins that have not been put away, as well as the untreated wood.

   "This time the magic wave is eternal darkness, and the magical invasion will reach the front line tonight. It is urgent."

  A mage looked at the sky exposed among the trees, and said solemnly.

   "Eternal darkness? Isn't the tide of frost?"

   Lu Zan blurted out subconsciously.

  Hearing what Lu Kie said, the mage looked over strangely.

"Who told you that?"

  The mage, the commander, and the steward of Blackpine Town all stared at Lu Kizumi.

  Birmingham was speechless, but after a daze, he stood in front of Lu Zie.

   "He may just be confused"

   "You get out of the way."

  The mage said something, which made Birmingham completely immobile, unable to even speak a word.

  The mage looked at Lu Nie, his eyes were dark blue, and he looked similar to Lu Nie's age.

"According to the observations of the observation hub, this time the magic wave is eternal darkness. The sixth way of the twelve demon tides. When eternal darkness comes, the whole world will fall into darkness without light. If you are in the darkness more than After a while, it will be swallowed by monsters."

The mage’s words made others look fearful. Sometimes the magic wave is once a year, sometimes several times a year. In recent years, there have been at least three times a year. The veterans among the rangers have experienced many magic waves. , Naturally knows the horror of each demonic wave.

   "What about the frost?"

  Lu stumbled without fear, he had never seen it anyway, so he should listen to popular science.

"Frost is the third demon wave, and the dominator is the winter wolf. The howling of the wolf announces the arrival of the demon wave. In the frost, the temperature will drop below the freezing point, and the low temperature alone will kill most of the creatures. , The breath of the winter wolf can destroy most of the barriers."

Master    explained vividly, causing many people to stop their work and come over to listen.

  "According to the observations of the observation hub, there is now a large area of ​​long night phenomenon west of Heibao. This is a sign of the imminent darkness. As for the frost, the current temperature is far from the severe winter when the frost is approaching."

  He took out the map, and he could see that most of the map was the Black Forest, one of which was circled, and he could see the location of the Black Fortress and Black Pine Town.

  This is already the depths of the Black Forest, and the shadow of the city can only be seen on the edge of the map.

  Just looking at the intricate forest makes people feel suffocated. This is a world where humans are far weaker than monsters.

  "The monsters we hunted before then"

  Lu Zan thought of the gray wolf with six legs and four eyes.

   "These monsters are everywhere in the Black Forest. It may be that the long night covered the Black Forest, so they escaped from their original residence."

   explained the mage.

"I see."

  Lu Zan nodded.

  Although he still felt that the voice he heard in [Madman’s Knowledge] was not false, perhaps the frost was hidden in the dark night.

  On the other side, the mage looked at Lu Zin who was leaving, and gave the commander a wink.

   "I'm going to the Grey Tower to request the observation data of the most recent year, maybe this time the magic wave is really unprecedented."
