Gangduolin is a heavy pass built by the Gangwu Empire to defend against the north. It has a large number of resources. It connects 70% of the defense line in the northwest. It is one of the eight major passes of the empire and has the most solid defense barrier in the northwest...

The climate here is dry and cold, the conditions are harsh, the residents are brave and good at fighting, and have a strong sense of resistance. Unlike the southern grasslands, which are always comfortable, Gangduolin has faced the invasion of major golden tribes of the Orcs for many years, and the folk customs are extremely fierce. Basically, boys over ten years old can ride horses and shoot arrows, and they will not even be weaker than a regular soldier in the south when they pick up weapons...

But even such a strong local nation has gradually begun to fall into an atmosphere of despair these days...

From three months ago, an unprecedented dark magic has enveloped the entire north. Wherever the darkness is shrouded in the dark, creatures have become bloodthirsty and cruel. Even plants have become human-eating creatures under the corrosion of dark forces. The forests in the north are expanding to the naked eye. The residents who escaped from Fangmeirusi City said that the forests in the north are like they are coming alive, constantly expanding, and they swallowed the entire city of Meirusi City in less than a few months!

As for what is in the expanded forest, no one knows because no one can come out alive.

Other cities have to face the endless tide of mutant beasts. Lions five or six meters high, bisons twice as large as Gado beasts, pythons dozens of meters long, and the most terrifying thing is the insect creatures, the tiny insects that could be killed with one slap. Once again, they all became extremely dangerous, becoming as big as a human. The soldiers saw mosquitoes as big as a human, and took their companions into the air and sucked them into a mummy!

I heard that the largest pass Normandia was flooded by endless insect dynasties. Fortunately, they were prepared and asked the mages to prepare flame shields in advance, which avoided the same fate...

There are many legends about this dark invasion... Many, anyway, as the descriptions of people who have been escaping from outside, there is already a Shura hell outside.

Gundolin is a famous stone city. The outside environment is extremely difficult. At first glance, there are white granites. Many people hate to live here because there are stones and stones, and they are not angry at all. But because of this, in the face of this dark invasion, Gundolin can last for so long and stay away from forests. Rivers, which once criticized, have now become the biggest advantage of Gundolin. Because it is far away from rivers and forests, Gundosheng faces very few mutated creatures, and gives people here enough time to react. The strangled mutant power is too small, which makes the soldiers' mutation situation not as bad as other cities.

Gundolin, a stone city that once looked down upon by countless people, has now become the only surviving hope in the northwest.

But the more this happens, the more desperate the Lord Mike, who is in charge of the city, becomes. He has been stationed in Gondolin for many years and is well aware of the operation mode of the city.

Gundolin itself has no production capacity. This terrain was originally a stone forest. Because of its advantages, it was developed by the second-generation emperors as a barrier to the northwest. It cannot be self-sufficient, but actually requires 70% of the northwest to supply supplies.

Of course, as a major city of border troops, in order to prevent being surrounded by beasts from being unable to be sent in, Gangdulin's grain supply was originally very sufficient, enough for the military and civilians of Gangdulin to eat for more than half a year. In addition, there is a master who can call the rain, so it is not a big problem to save a little, and it is actually not a big deal to fight for a year.

But that was only aimed at the military and civilians of the city. Since the inexplicable dark tide attack, refugees in the northwest have basically gathered here. Now the population here is almost three times that of normal situation.

Moreover, those who can successfully escape here are all relatively excellent soldiers. These soldiers eat much larger than ordinary residents. The most important thing is that they are more hostile!

Most of them have experienced many battles from outside to here, and many soldiers have undergone certain mutations. After the mutation, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers has become much stronger, but their hostility has also increased a lot. At any time, they feel that they are enduring their bloodthirsty nature. Normal residents seem very alert to these mutated soldiers, which makes those soldiers more introverted.

Now, the mutated soldiers seem to have been hugged together, and they are in a strife with Gondolin, the city lord...

This made him regret letting these soldiers come in. When he let them in, one was the bottom line and kindness of both humans, and the second was because other cities around him were constantly falling. He hoped to absorb these soldiers who fled to strengthen the city's strength. But at present, since the Gundolin is in desolation, there seems to be no threat from a large beast tide. On the contrary, these mutated soldiers may be the real hidden danger to the destruction of Gundolin...

"How to deal with it?" The city lord Mike became more and more worried. Now that the food in the city is getting short of food, it has begun to streamline food three days ago. The food distributed is half as high as before. Hunger has made each other's conflicts deepen. You can hear locals complaining about the wandering soldiers at any time on the street, and even humiliating them in person.

But when Mike was nervous, the mutant soldiers seemed extremely calm these days, and they looked exactly the same as the violent appearance a few days ago. But the more they were like this, the more creepy it made Mike feel that these mutant soldiers are more like a beast ready to hunt, and everyone is dull and cold...

It's time to think of a solution...

Finally...After being worried for so long, Mike finally made a decision...

Instead of being frightened, it is better to start first!!

---------------------------------------

And just after Mike made up his mind, on the same day, two newcomers came to Gondolin...

It was Puyunchuan and Isabel who came through mountains and rivers. The journey was more difficult than expected. It was really different to have someone familiar with the terrain leading the way. Isabel perfectly inherited Alice's ability as a top scout, and avoided the mutation zone with great precision along the way, leaving Puyunchuan almost without any dangers along the way.

But what he saw along the way made Pu Yunchuan frightened. For example, he saw a bison twice as big as the Gado beast from a distance and was suddenly swallowed by a giant python that suddenly emerged from the pool. The giant python was much larger than the snake chief halfway up in the mountain in the Black Water Division. Pu Yunchuan was curious about how the pool contained such a terrifying giant snake, but then he saw a group of terrifying mosquitoes wrapped around the giant python all the way, sucking it into a huge mummy...

Moreover, they could clearly feel it when they were wandering on the edge of the mutated forest. The forest was expanding, like a living creature, slowly expanding outward. When they walked on the edge, they could clearly feel the forest's desire for themselves!

Anyway, although Pu Yunchuan has not encountered any danger these days, the mental blow has been extremely huge. He swore that he would never get close to the forest again...

The guard seemed a little surprised at the time and the survivors came to Gondolin. However, although the guards on the periphery had a ferocious and ferocious face because of their mutated faces, they seemed very kind to him and Isabel, and they even took the initiative to distribute hot water and food to them...

But as soon as they entered the city, the residents looked at them with disgust...

What's going on? Pu Yunchuan couldn't help but wonder.
