Chapter 1363 Endless Ridge
"Something's wrong!" After walking a certain distance, Sylvia suddenly whispered.
"I discovered it too." Leo responded simply.
What the two of them said was wrong was not with the three Powell family members, but with the surrounding environment.
They all discovered that the surrounding space was different from normal space. A seemingly short distance actually required walking a long way to reach it, as if the distance on this road was unknowingly being stretched while walking.
Longer.
If calculated in this way, the foot of Mount Truber, which seems to be only a day away to the naked eye, may actually be farther away than they estimated with their eyes.
Obviously, this situation should be caused by the special power shrouded in Mount Troub.
The three people leading the way obviously heard the conversation between Leo and Sylvia. They were afraid that the two of them would think it was the three of them, so they quickly explained: "There are endless ridges from here to the foot of Mount Trubo.
, the environment here is very weird, the distance to the eye is completely different from the distance at the right time. It takes about two days for our lumberjack family to walk this way, but it takes more for ordinary people to walk this way.
Time can’t even run out at all.”
Another person also continued: "In the past, the Ot Federation sent many people here to explore Mount Trub. In the end, very few people were able to reach the foot of the mountain. Most of them died on the road to the endless ridge.
His body is still on the road, and you two will be able to see it when the time comes."
Another person continued: "I heard that all this seems to be because a certain god offended the mysterious existence on the top of Mount Trubo and was killed here. His body turned into an endless ridge, cursing everyone who entered here.
Only those who possess the seal of the holy covenant can avoid this curse."
When talking about this, the three people seemed to realize something and looked at Leo and Sylvia in unison. It was obvious that Leo and Sylvia's behavior along the way was completely different from the ordinary people they knew.
, they don’t seem to be influenced by Troubberg Mountain at all, they feel like they are members of the lumberjack family.
At this time, someone couldn't help but be curious and boldly asked: "Which family do you two belong to..."
"We are not from a lumberjack family." Leo denied.
Although Leo denied the three people's speculation, it was obvious that none of the three people took this statement seriously. They all thought that Leo and Sylvia might be the illegitimate children of a member of a lumberjack family outside. They came back this time.
Want to settle accounts with their father or mother.
All the thoughts of these three people were written on their faces, and naturally they were noticed by Leo and Sylvia. They had no intention of explaining that their thoughts were already focused on the legend about the Endless Ridge mentioned by the three people.
Although this legend sounds a bit exaggerated, as if the lumberjack family is deliberately improving the mysticism of Mount Truber, so this legend has not been spread to the outside world, but if you think about it carefully, it will come back, and this legend seems to make sense.
, Leo could even deduce that the time when the god fell was when Mount Truber broke away from its main mountain range.
According to normal conditions, a natural disaster that can cause the connection between two mountain ranges to break will inevitably affect the surrounding areas and cause changes in the topography of the surrounding areas.
For example, the big impact that formed Beiluk Lake directly changed the topography of that area, turning hills into lakes and hills into plains. And that big impact was definitely not enough to completely break the connection between the two mountain ranges, so
The force that caused the mountains to break was far greater than that big impact, and the impact caused by the fall of a god was almost the same. The fall of the Eagle God in Velen World is the best example.
However, judging from all the records about Mount Troubo, when the link fault occurred on Mount Troubo, there were no other natural disasters caused by the aftermath, and there were no major changes in the topography. This is obviously contrary to common sense.
, the only thing that can be explained is that a mysterious and powerful force controlled the aftermath of the impact.
Now bring in the lumberjack family's legend about the endless ridge, and everything will fall into place. A god unexpectedly launched an attack on the mysterious existence on the top of Mount Truber, and fell. The impact caused by the fall made the special
Mount Lubo broke off from the main mountain range, but the aftermath was limited by the mysterious existence of Mount Lubo, and the corpses of the gods after their death formed the current endless ridge.
To people in this world, the idea of a god turning into a mountain ridge after his death is a bit ridiculous. But for Leo, he had seen hills turned into giants, so naturally he would not think that the corpse of a god turned into a mountain ridge.
What is the problem.
And the reason why Leo was sure that this endless ridge was transformed from the corpse of a god was because the unknown power he felt here seemed to have an energy fluctuation, and this energy fluctuation gave him a sense of decay and decay.
It feels very similar to the rotten aura exuded by the corpse of the Eagle God in the streams of the Dibia Mountains.
As for why the corpse of the god on the Endless Ridge did not become like the corpse of the Eagle God, this is also easy to explain, because this corpse is always washed by the mysterious power of Mount Trubo, producing more corruption.
It will be neutralized quickly and won't cause any trouble at all.
As for the neutralized corrupt energy, it is likely that it is the reason for the space stretching phenomenon of the endless ridge. After all, if the unknown power of Mount Trubo also has the ability to stretch space, then it will definitely be the same in the previous forest.
This happens, not just on this endless ridge.
The three guides led the way, while Leo was thinking and walking leisurely from behind. Sylvia on the side did not disturb Leo's thinking, but walked aside, talking from time to time.
He knelt down and picked up a strange-looking stone from the ground.
The main reason why Sylvia picked up this stone was because she sensed through the instinct of the Abyss Dragon that this strange-looking stone was not just a stone as it seemed. He felt that these stones
There might be power contained in them that even she didn't know about, so she picked up these stones and prepared to show Leo what they were after a while.
After walking for several hours, the group arrived at a temporary rest cabin built by a lumberjack family.
It is said to be a hut, but in fact it is more like some kind of primitive cave house. They used the existing cave on the side of the ridge, built it with bricks and stones, and then added a wooden door to create such a temporary resting hut.
.
The cabin does not seem big from the outside, but in fact it is very spacious inside. It is more than enough for a dozen people to live in it. The lumberjack family has prepared some items needed for daily life. In addition, there is a water tank in which
Some water was brought in, but this was not transported from other places, but was formed by condensation water dripping from the top of the cave.
"It will take almost half a day to walk to the next resting point, and it will definitely be night by then. Walking at night on the Endless Ridge is very dangerous. Not only is it possible to miss the point and fall down the ridge, but you are also likely to encounter some monsters that come out at night.
, such as giant monster bugs, which are very immune to our power, so we’d better rest until tomorrow day and leave during the day.” A member of the Powell family explained vigorously.
"Okay." Leo did not force them to travel overnight. He was not in a hurry to reach the foot of Trubo Mountain. In fact, he didn't mind staying on the Endless Ridge for a few more days.
Hearing Leo's words, the three of them all breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to prepare food and light the fire in the fireplace to prepare for the night.
Leo and Sylvia also walked to the stone chairs in the corner of the cave and sat down.
"Look what this is?" Sylvia took out the strange-shaped stones she had just seen and showed them to Leo.
Leo recognized at first glance that these stones should be the bones of some kind of animal, and they also contained some power. After analysis through the spiritual network, he found that there was also a trace of energy fluctuations unique to the abyss hidden in these powers.
This trace of energy fluctuation may not prove that these fossilized bones are abyssal creatures, but it is very likely that these bones were some kind of creatures that were infected by the abyss during their lifetime. This is consistent with their previous judgment that Mount Trubo had an adult.
The Kalita Demon echoes.
Leo told Sylvia his analysis and judgment, but Sylvia did not fully accept Leo's statement because she felt that the trace of abyss energy contained in the bones might not be what Leo expected.
That's just the abyss energy produced after being infected by the power of the abyss.
So, she asked Leo to find a way to extract the trace of abyssal energy from these bone fossils. She felt that perhaps after being exposed to the purest abyssal energy, the inherited memory of the abyssal dragon could inspire more useful knowledge.
Although the surrounding environment was not suitable for casting spells, things like extracting energy were not too difficult, so Leo agreed to Sylvia's request, put away the Amulet of Distorted Power, and then cast a spell to extract it.
During the extraction process, the unknown forces around him also caused some interference. However, because he was holding on to the fossil and did not let the spell he cast far away from his body, the interference was not great.
Soon, Leo extracted all the fossils that Sylvia had seen. After the trace of abyss energy was extracted, all the fossils immediately turned into dust, as if this trace of abyss energy was supporting these fossils.
shape.
At the moment when all the abyssal energy was extracted, Leo did not hand over the extracted abyssal energy that was imprisoned to Sylvia, but looked at the energy with all his thoughts, as if he was attracted by this energy.
Like triggering certain memories.
Sylvia naturally noticed Leo's abnormality. She did not disturb Leo and quietly waited for Leo to return to normal.
The three guides on the side looked over from time to time while doing their work. They didn't understand what Leo and Sylvia were doing. They just saw the stones that they thought were everywhere, and they suddenly changed in Leo's hands.
It turned into powder, and at the same time, a silver-gray light group appeared in the palm of Leo's other hand, and when they saw the light group, they kept having some inexplicable thoughts in their hearts, such as turning that light group into
If they take it away, the light group can give them incredible power and so on.
If it were in the past, the three of them might have rushed forward and snatched away the light ball without hesitation, but now the three of them did not dare to make any move that would cause misunderstanding, even if they kept having similar thoughts in their hearts, because this
The allure of things is far from comparable to the pressure brought to them by Leo and Sylvia, and they naturally know how to make the right choice.
After a while, Leo came back from his contemplation, handed the abyss energy in his hand to Sylvia, and said to Sylvia: "Do I know where this abyss energy comes from?"
"Where are you from?" Sylvia asked curiously as she took it.
"Holy Ruins." Leo said a name that he had not mentioned for a long time.
When Leo said this answer, there was still some confusion on his face. He did not expect that he would see a product from the Holy Ruins here, although he did not know where this abyss energy came from.
But it was impossible for him to misidentify the unique dead silence and despair in the energy aura of the Holy Ruins.
"The holy ruins where everything ends?" Sylvia confirmed.
Leo didn't answer, just nodded.
At this time, Sylvia also unlocked Leo's ban, took the abyss energy into her body, and used her own abyss dragon power to assimilate and absorb this abyss energy.
Just after she integrated this abyss energy, the inherited memory of the abyss dragon seemed to have been touched by some mechanism, and a large amount of knowledge poured into Sylvia's mind.
Although Sylvia also received the infusion of the inherited memory of the Abyss Demonic Dragon when her bloodline evolved to a higher form, that infusion was always within her tolerance and would not bring any burden to her.
But this time, the inherited knowledge she obtained was completely beyond her ability to bear, and she could not build a database in her mind like Leo, who had rich experience and could not analyze the knowledge pouring in from the outside.
She stuffed it into the database and slowly analyzed it. She could only bear it completely passively. For a moment, her brain felt like it was about to be expanded. A sharp pain from what she had done before occurred in her brain. She even
I couldn't help but groan in pain.
Leo on the side naturally discovered Sylvia's anomaly, and also deduced that something might have happened to Sylvia, so he put his hand on Sylvia's forehead, using the power of nightmares to imitate Sylvia.
