Chapter 519: Chapter 548: entering the Blackrock Forest for the first time…
Translator: 549690339
That day, Pu Yunchuan and his group decided to continue the exploration mission. The next day, they said goodbye to Mirren and his group and set off on their journey.
After entering the Blackrock Forest, it was not as dangerous as they had imagined. Along the way, they had encountered very few mutated creatures. At most, they had seen some mutated plants. Moreover, the danger level was not very high.
Therefore, according to Pu Yunchuan’s analysis, the mutated monsters they had encountered outside the forest should already be at the top of the food in the black stone forest. And because of its existence, many creatures had left this place.
Before coming here, the developers in the base had also analyzed it for him. Because of the explosion of the Black Goat map, many places’ecosystems would be broken. It was very likely that a place would be occupied by a creature!
It was very obvious that Pu Yunchuan and the others had encountered such a situation. As a result, they could not see any larger carnivorous creatures throughout the forest. It was no wonder that the creature would hunt outside the forest…
On the other hand, Pu Yunchuan and the others had attracted a lot of larger piranhas while they were bathing. At that time, they were so scared that they ran around naked. After that, Pu Yunchuan’s suggestion to catch some fresh fish was decisively rejected by everyone.
The Blackrock Forest was not big. The few of them walked out of the forest and headed towards the Blackrock Trail before the sky turned dark. Then, they encountered the first unexpected thing… …
That was the first barrier that the Blackrock Plains faced against the humans: the Blackrock Trail checkpoint had been abandoned… …
The Blackrock tribe, which had the strongest witch doctor inheritance, was originally the biggest force in the Blackrock Plains. As the strongest tribe in this position, they enjoyed the most resources while also shouldering the heavy responsibility of defending against the humans.
As a result, the Blackrock tribe spent a lot of manpower to set up a checkpoint camp at the entrance of the Blackrock path. They also stationed troops there, using the narrow terrain here as a military defense and early warning.
Firstly, because of the terrain, this place was very difficult to break through. Once the human invaders were discovered, they would use smoke or flying birds to inform the rear, then, it would be convenient for the Blackrock tribe’s higher-ups to organize other small and medium-sized tribes to defend against the human invasion!
Wesker was very familiar with this model. He had spent almost his entire military career in the seven cities in the northwest, and this generation of Emperor Jiawen was also a king who was good at conquering, over the years, he had accompanied many generals to attack the Blackstone Plains. Every time he came here, the first thing he did was to calculate how to seize this place at lightning speed, so that the Blackstone tribe would not have time to organize defense!
In history, there were not many people who could do this. There were only three people in total. They were Marshal Rox, the Red Dragon Duke, Lady Isabelle, and one of the ten great legends of the Empire’s golden generation, Lady Alice!
Wesker did not know if his group could take down the Blackrock path quickly. However, Lady Isabelle had also said before they came that there was a high possibility of internal strife happening in the Blackrock Plains, the garrison on the Blackrock path might not be as strict as before. Their first mission was to test the authenticity of this conjecture.
If this place was still the same as before, Pu Yunchuan and his group would quickly retreat back to Gondolin…
That night, Wesker had a group of officers discuss tactics with Pu Yunchuan. In the end, they decided that Pu Yunchuan would lead the group and organize the ape-like mutant soldiers who were good at climbing to carry out a lightning raid…
If the gate in the Blackrock path was successfully opened, the signal would be sent out, and Wesker would lead the team to launch a general attack. However, when Pu Yunchuan led the team to break in the next day, they found that the Blackrock camp had no resistance at all… Only a few veterans who were starving to death…
After the interrogation, they found out that just as Isabelle had said, there was a huge internal disturbance in the Blackrock Plains. It was said that because of this huge change, the five gold tribes in the Ogle Plains had left one after another, two of them had come to the Blackrock Plains, and with the addition of the middle-and high-level tribes from outside, the situation in the plains was very intense. Almost three months after the change, the garrison troops here received the call from the higher-ups of the Blackrock Plains and withdrew!
Those who stayed were all veterans who had no connections. According to these veterans, the supplies here had been cut off since the fifth month. They had sent letters to the higher-ups, but there was no reply… …
It seemed like something big had happened in the tribe!
Faced with such a situation, Pu Yunchuan asked curiously, “Then why didn’t you guys escape?”
At this moment, Pu Yunchuan had removed his makeup to make it easier for the battle. He had displayed the posture of a Green Titan, while the soldiers around him were basically mutated. They looked more like subspecies than humans.., in addition, Pu Yunchuan was proficient in the tribal beast language, so the veterans here did not have much resistance. They thought that they were also tribes that had fled from the outside world.
Hence, they told the situation with a bitter smile…
The Blackstone tribe was a rare tribe with a witch doctor culture. The ones who held great power within the tribe were all high-level witch doctors. These witch doctors were good at not only healing but also witchcraft that harmed people. On the prairie.., they were an existence that even brave warriors feared.
In the Blackrock tribe, these warriors were also afraid of the witch doctors of the upper echelons. Once they were caught as deserters, they would face a GU type that was even more terrifying than death. It was said that after being tortured by a Gu.., the beastmen would suffer so much that their souls could not be freed. Sometimes, they would even be created into terrifying gu men!
Under such terrifying oppression, these veterans would rather starve to death than try to become deserters…
Witchcraft?
When Pu Yunchuan heard this, he immediately thought of some old horror movies related to Hong Kong Island and Thailand on the internet, using some inexplicable rituals. Then, worms could grow out of the bellies and heads of people thousands of miles away…
F * cking creepy…
Therefore, Pu Yunchuan curiously asked Wesker and the others about this.
Wesker heard him and said solemnly, “The witch doctor in the Blackrock tribe is indeed mysterious. Sometimes, people don’t even know when they were poisoned, but it’s definitely not as mysterious as the outside world thinks. Usually, they use water, food, air, and other factors to make you fall for it, and usually only the witch doctor can operate it from nearby…”. “…”
Pu Yunchuan heaved a sigh of relief and thought to himself, “It’s good that it’s not that strange…”. “…”. Then, he asked, “Since there are no defenses here, should we continue to explore?”
As soon as he said this, the surrounding generals started to hesitate. With less than 1,000 people, it would be quite dangerous for them to wander around the Beast Clan’s headquarters…
However, this was a rare opportunity. Just as Lady Isabelle had said, the orcs were in a large-scale civil war. This was a great opportunity to fish in troubled waters. If they missed this opportunity, it would be very difficult to have such an opportunity in the future…
Therefore, after discussing for an entire afternoon, everyone finally felt that they should regroup and continue their journey. However, once they reached the Blackstone Plains, their future was a problem.
Just as they were hesitating, Pu Yunchuan suddenly came up with an idea…
