"The front...the front is the city of despair."

In the staggering footsteps, a man in ragged clothes looked at the narrow and cramped line of sky canyon ahead, his dim eyes rarely revealed a bit of brilliance.

The ragged man turned his head and glanced at the following people behind him, his hoarse voice was a little bit of joy, "Hongsheng, hold on, we are going to the place."

"Brother, I already feel it."

Behind the ragged man was a young man with disheveled hair, chapped lips, and wrinkled clothes that there was not much of the original style.

At this moment, the young man named "Hongsheng" was slightly squinting his eyes, feeling the breeze blowing gently from the sky in the valley.

The cool breeze, especially with a slightly humid breath, refreshed the spirits of the people who had gone through the trek and thirst.

"Everyone cheer up, we are going to the place."

The ragged man watched the sluggish young man lift up a little, his peeling cheeks twitched a little, and then he called out to the seventy or eighty people who followed.

"Here, finally here!"

"We actually walked here alive."

Among the dozens of people behind, someone cried a little excitedly after hearing the words of the ragged man.

But most of them still looked at the line of sky canyon ahead with numb face, and there was no wave on their face. The difficulty of this journey had already hollowed out most of them. If it weren't for a bit of anger, at first glance, you might think these people are walking dead.

"Let's go, third brother!" The ragged man's nose twitched, as if desperately sniffing the water vapour floating in the air, and it seemed that he had experienced too much hardship, and finally arrived at his destination unconsciously. Points ups and downs.

A group of people used swords and spears to turn, or they helped each other, walking along the gorge of the sky.

The water vapor in the gorge is rich, and due to the extremely steep mountain wall, everyone can feel a strong damp breath as soon as they enter.

Compared with the tens of thousands of miles of desert survival, the heat and dryness, suddenly cool at this time, have caused many dying pedestrians to unconsciously lift their spirits a little bit.

"Wait!"

A group of dozens of people entered the antenna and walked for an unknown amount of time. Suddenly, the ragged man walking in the front stopped and raised his right hand high.

Even though he traveled along, he didn't know how many injuries he had suffered, and his physical condition was less than one-tenth of the time when he was in full bloom.

But with the strength and willpower far superior to others, he has been firmly at the forefront of the team. At this moment, he suddenly raised his hand to stop everyone, even those who were already weak to the extreme, could not help but stay vigilant. .

Thousands of people set off from the "Dragon City" in the East Continent, and after all the hardships, there are only seven or eighty people left. It can be said that each of these people is not weak in their original strength, and it is even more of a person with a firm mind to reach this point.

And they had already recognized the ragged man in front. They came along this way, and they didn’t know how many dangers, storms, thirst, hunger, desolation, monsters...every hardships and obstacles, they only survived under the leadership of the other party. Come down.

Just when everyone stopped and became quiet, many people began to take out their swords and looked around vigilantly.

Tick-

Tick-

A faint sound of water droplets suddenly appeared in everyone's ears.

"this is……"

Chu Hongsheng pursed his chapped lips almost subconsciously.

It’s been four or five days since the last time we passed the water source. After that, the water source all the way relied on digging a sand pit, collecting a little dew from the morning. Even now, although it can still persist, the thirst of fire in the throat is already It made him think of water flow the first time he heard this sound.

"There is water!"

At the same time, on the other side, at this time, many languishing pedestrians were cheered up.

Pairs of green eyes kept scanning left and right. By now, everyone may not be sensitive to other reactions, but the feeling of water is the most sensitive.

Moreover, according to common sense, there should also be water sources here.

After all, this broken mountain range is continuous and isolated from water vapor, but that is in a big way, but now, they are already in the broken mountain range, and there should be water around them.

"Brother—"

Listening to the clamoring crowd behind him, Chu Hongsheng cast his eyes on the man standing in front of the ragged man. Seeing him as if he didn't respond much to the water around him, he couldn't help but call out softly.

Chu Hongchang frowned, first stretched out his hand to press down the turbulent crowd behind him, and then looked around constantly.

Except for pedestrians on the eastern continent, this one-line sky canyon is rarely walked all year round. Moreover, it is said to be a thin line of sky, but the ground is actually quite open, but...

Chu Hongchang instinctively felt something wrong. It seemed that after entering this gorge, he felt as if he was being stared at by something in the shadows.

and--

After Chu Hongchang glanced around, quietly under a mountain wall, he saw a few thick bones. Although no bones can be seen, it is clear that this one-line sky canyon is not a smooth road.

Tick, tick—

The sound of falling waterdrops sounded again.

"Look! Up!"

Suddenly, a voice screamed from behind the crowd.

Everyone in the crowd raised their heads in the direction of the voice. Suddenly, the group of seventy or eighty people suddenly agitated, suddenly screamed like a pot of hot oil.

When Chu Hongchang raised his head and looked upward, his heart suddenly shook.

On the mountain wall above everyone’s heads, on an obliquely raised stone pillar, a thick giant python hovered around and wrapped around it, like a dustpan, with its head drooping down, in the mouth of the open blood basin, viscous saliva continued. Dripping.

"It's a monster!"

Chu Hongchang slammed a sharp spirit, grabbed a long sword used for crutches in his hand, and suddenly shouted.

The people who followed him, at the same time, their hearts shook wildly, and all raised their weapons.

This road was difficult and dangerous. At first, many people had already thrown away the weapons in their hands. After all, compared to facing the harsh living environment, the weapons of swords and spears were not only heavy, but also useless.

But after going deep into the desert and encountering numerous attacks by monsters and monsters, the weaker and defenseless exiles either died in their own hands or entered the belly of various monsters.

In such a world where order has collapsed, the only things to rely on are the companions around you and the swords and guns in your hands.

Hiss--

The giant python, entrenched on a mountain pillar tens of meters above everyone’s head, might have just wanted to sneak attack while everyone was on the way, but it seems that because of Chu Hongchang’s big drink, it also noticed that the "prey" had discovered it. .

Now he no longer hides his body, but slid down from the stone pillar above. Along with the movement of the giant python sliding body, the fist-sized stones on both sides of the mountain wall suddenly fell down.

However, due to the huge size of the giant python, due to the support on both sides of the mountain wall, it fell silently.

But when the python really landed on the ground and appeared in front of everyone, a group of exiles who had experienced various dangers still couldn't help but take a breath.

They had seen a lot of monsters along the way, but they were not as shocking as the giant python in front of them.

After the giant python fell, the one-line sky canyon more than ten meters wide was almost completely blocked by it.

The eyes were like lanterns, staring at the crowd, the biting chill was like a knife.

Especially on the top of this giant python's head, there is a big red bag that bulges, as if it has horns, but the heat is still a little worse, and it has not fully emerged.

"I have long heard that the demons in the Forgotten Land are raging. I didn't... I didn't expect that before crossing the Broken Life Mountains, I would encounter such demons..."

The warning signs in Chu Hongchang's heart soared to the extreme as soon as he saw this giant python.

Especially when I saw that the giant python had a red envelope on its head, it seemed that it was not far from the flower dragon, and his heart sank to the bottom in an instant.

In terms of his physical state in his heyday, plus the powerful companions of No. 70 or 80 around him, facing such a demon python who has not yet reached the level of "low demon", even if it is more difficult to deal with, it is not without chance. .

But now, after the trek for more than six months and a year, everyone has almost reached a state of exhaustion. Even if they can barely afford weapons, they still want to escape from this demon python's mouth. not easy.

"Brother!"

After the giant python fell next to Chu Hongsheng, he couldn't help but shrank up, his voice trembling.

This Forgotten Land has been exiled criminals for hundreds of thousands of years. There have been many rumors that this Forgotten Land is full of monsters and dangers, but I never expected that this has just arrived in the Tianxian Canyon of the Broken Mountain Range.

It's not really a place of despair, but he has already encountered such a terrifying monster, which makes Chu Hongsheng's heart cold.

"Don't be afraid of Hongsheng, you and the others slowly withdraw, I will stay and stop him."

Chu Hongchang's eyes flickered, and the long sword in his hand was dragged to his side by him and blocked in front of everyone.

"You go first!" After Chu Hongchang finished speaking, he shouted at the others without looking back.

The skinny body bowed slightly, but it was not flinching to escape, but the muscles were tightened, and he made a posture to respond to the attack of the giant python that was not far from the realm of "lower demon".

"Brother!"

"Brother Chu!"

"School lieutenant!"

There was a shout from the crowd behind.

Everyone lives and dies together to this day, seeing that they are about to leave the desert, but they really didn't expect such a scene waiting for them.

It's no wonder that from ancient times to the present, many people have been exiled to the Forgotten Land, but after crossing the "Dragon City" of the Eastern Continent, only those who have come out have never returned.

There are demons everywhere in Gein, and it is truly a desperate situation.

Now, everyone present is very suspicious, crossing this strait-line canyon, on the other side, is there really a city of exile like the "City of Despair".

Hiss--

The giant python resembling a dragon spit out a snake letter and made a harsh hiss.

In the face of dozens of humans, it did not immediately launch an attack. For a behemoth like it, this area is completely its territory, and it does not worry about the escape of the people in front of it.

However, after waiting for a long time, the giant python could not bear the hunger, ready to attack!

"Go!"

Chu Hongchang watched the giant python twisting its huge body, suddenly grabbed the long sword in his hand, suddenly shouted, and then rushed out.

He used to be the strength of the first level of spiritual energy entering the body, and even the distance from the second level is not too far.

It's just this journey, coupled with the various methods that he had endured before exile, and he didn't have one ability. But at this time, there was no other choice but to fight hard.

"Fight!"

Following the tattered people behind Chu Hongchang who looked like beggars, the other party took the lead in attacking the giant python. Not only did they not retreat, but one by one aroused the last trace of blood.

"Anyway, it's all death, I must be brave!"

Since the defeat and capture, and the exile all the way for tens of thousands of miles, to this day, most of these people have already lost hope.

Along the way, if it weren't for Chu Hongchang's support everywhere, these people would have been gone.

By now, most people are like walking dead, but after all, there is still a breath.

Seeing that the road ahead is not clear, and the back is desperate. At this time, many people burst out the last trace of madness, holding swords and other weapons in their hands, they are about to fight for the giant python in front.

Advance is death, retreat is death, it is better to fight!

boom!

At the moment when everyone was full of strength, Chu Hongchang, who was the first to rush out towards the python, flexibly opened the giant python's open mouth, and the long sword in his hand slashed on the giant python's neck fiercely.

Sparks are flying!

Although this giant python has not reached the level of "low demon", it has been entrenched here all year round, shed its skin sharply again and again, and the hardness of the scale body is no longer what ordinary stainless steel weapons can harm.

On the contrary, Chu Hongchang's attack aroused fierceness. The huge disclosure was like a hill, suddenly twisted and hit Chu Hongchang's body.

Suddenly.

Chu Hongchang flew out like clouds and fog, and smashed against the nearby mountain wall.

The giant python's long body twisted, and two lantern-like eyes fell on Chu Hongchang who was thrown to pieces, his huge mouth opened, and he bit at Chu Hongchang again.

"Master school lieutenant!"

"Brother Chu!"

"Brother!"

The restless crowd in the rear made all kinds of shouts immediately.

But the crowd gathered far away, and there was no time at all. They could only watch the giant python open its mouth, as if to swallow Chu Hongchang in one bite.

at this time.

boom!

There was a muffled sound.

On the mountain wall, a huge black shadow suddenly fell and stood in front of the giant python.

The burly shadow suddenly grasped the open jaws of the giant python with both hands. The powerful and terrifying force actually withstood the giant python's attack.

Hiss--

The python's upper and lower jaws were clamped, and it suddenly made a hissing sound, and the head twisted, but the power of the black shadow in front of it was amazing. It was unexpectedly unable to free its head from the opponent's hand for a while. Nor could he shake this burly shadow out.

For a moment, the giant python's thick body and tail slapped hard.

The rocks and mountain walls on both sides burst into a loud bang, and sand splashed under the giant python's scales like gold and iron and the tyrannical force.

The giant python's huge body twisted, and after the upper and lower jaws were clamped by the burly night, the body and tail almost instinctively twisted towards the burly night.

With the size and strength of a giant python, as long as it is entangled with its body and tail, even a crocodile dragon can hardly break free.

But at this moment, the burly dark shadow was more sensitive and jumped up abruptly, avoiding the thick and long body that the giant python wanted to entangle him.

Instead, he jumped to the head of the giant python, his hands full of sharp claws clasped fiercely on the scales of the giant python, and then as if riding this giant python, he strove to the side of the mountain wall again. Hit the past.

The rumbling noises continued one after another.

Chu Hongchang and the other exiles were stunned when they saw the sight in front of them.

A giant python monster had already made them feel desperate, and the black figure that suddenly jumped out of the giant python to fight with the giant python was obviously also a humanoid monster.

It was terrifying and terrifying, and from the brief encounter between it and the giant python, it even had the upper hand, making everyone feel shocked.

"Take the sword!"

Suddenly a voice rang above the mountain wall.

A blue light fell ~lightnovelpub.net~ The burly black shadow, who was trying to subdue the giant python, suddenly turned sideways, grabbed with his right hand, and caught a huge two-meter wide sword.

The sword is about a foot wide, and the blue light is exquisite, obviously to match the burly and hideous shadow.

I saw a blue ray of light passing by like a horse, and the giant python, which was still struggling frantically, had fallen off its entire head. Only the thick body and tail were still trembling left and right.

With a thump.

Another tall figure fell from the dodge.

This is a humanoid monster with a gray body and bone spurs.

He looked at Chu Hongchang, who had just gotten up on the ground, and looked at those panicked and unidentified people, grinning with sharp teeth.

"A new exile? Hey, welcome to the city of despair!"
