This ti the trip is not short, Roland finds Sif and Lisa to explain matters to them.
He first asks Sif and Lisa if they want to go together.
Sif really wants to go, but she shakes her head decisively.
"I’m a professional in the authority system, and my fighting style is completely unrelated to magic. I’ll go when there’s a chance."
Even though she wants to go, it takes a lot of ti to go back and forth, and there are many things recently, so she chooses to stay.
Other than Roland, the person she trusts the most is indeed herself.
These past few months, she hasn’t synchronized her brand-new thinking abilities with the Magic Mirror, causing the Magic Mirror’s problem-solving skills to remain as they were months ago.
Simply put, it’s a political novice.
Seeing Sif’s expectant look as if she wanted to say sothing, Roland smiled and said, "Don’t worry, I’ll pick out the best gift for you."
"That’s not what I an, the gift doesn’t matter, you need to be safe."
Sif’s fingertips touched the Magical Weapon Pistol Roland gave her, with a slight smile at the corners of her lips.
Roland laughed heartily, saying nothing more.
She might as well have written ’want’ on her face, yet she says the gift isn’t important.
Sif can stay, but Lisa must go, and Roland’s insistence is based on a simple reason.
To see if Sura can give Lisa so praise.
The three disguised their identities, took a boat south along the Rodinia River, and disembarked at Val City Pier.
The pier was still busy, but the soldiers maintaining order were listless and their eyes vacant.
It was obvious they were all bewildered.
Val City State is finished! Yet they still had to stand post for the last few days.
The Executive Officer inford them of the results of the Hansa eting and tripled the last month’s salary.
When Executive Officer Tony tearfully announced this news, everyone remained silent.
Although it was tough, no one resisted.
They were being divided up by several major powers, not even the strongest country could withstand it, what could they do?
Wiping away tears and sighing, at least they’re earning their salary.
In at most two weeks, after completing the transfer of power with various countries, the Val Governnt would formally cease operations.
Thinking back to the spirited young officer he encountered two weeks ago when disembarking here, and looking at the current desolate scene of the pier, Roland also felt so emotion.
Even in a globalized era, the law of the jungle remains a fundantal rule, only it needs more refined packaging as civilization develops.
Sura didn’t know what happened here, though he found the soldiers’ low morale a bit odd, he didn’t pay much attention.
The three left the city, heading towards the White Mountain where the hidden Teleportation Array is located.
About thirty kiloters south of Val City State lies Rodinia Continent’s most famous White Mountain.
White Mountain is the tallest and most magnificent mountain range in the entire western part of the continent, with many areas covered in snow all year round, looking like a lying white giant dragon from afar, thus its na.
This mountain range is a life-forbidden zone inside, said to have powerful monsters deep within White Mountain.
Given the technological level of humanity in this era, trying to defeat them in the monsters’ lair is extrely difficult.
Lead bullets from firearms have a hard ti breaking through the defenses of large wild boars and black bears, let alone stronger monsters.
Fortunately, the Teleportation Array wasn’t far from the mountain entrance, no need to go deep inside.
In the evening, the three stopped outside the mountain entrance.
Activating the Magic Array at night would be too eye-catching, and White Mountain becos a wildlife haven at night. To avoid accidents, Sura suggested resting outside the mountain for the night before heading in.
Roland certainly had no objection.
It was common knowledge that going into the mountains at night is very dangerous, he didn’t want to seek thrills deliberately.
Thinking of his tendency to encounter enemies, Roland felt safety should co first.
Bonfire, tents, off-road, barbecue.
Lisa sprinkled the carefully prepared seasoning on the tender at of a boar leg, skewering the prepared tender at over the fla to start the barbecue.
Catching a whiff of the aroma wafting from the fire, Sura couldn’t help but tease:
"Roland, I thought you were joking, I didn’t expect you actually have a monster-attracting trait."
Roland felt a bit embarrassed too.
Just an hour ago, while chatting with Sura, he ntioned why he didn’t want to enter the mountains at night.
Sura didn’t take it seriously at first, however, a huge wild boar charged out.
The wild boar’s eyes were blood-red, with a body as strong as an elephant, smashing directly through two small trees.
This wild boar was obviously stimulated by sothing, staring straight at Roland and the others, howling as it charged forward.
This wild boar was strong, but it picked the wrong opponents.
Even a mature male elephant would be no match for two Transcendents and a Mage.
Lisa intimidated with flas to control its position; Sura used magic to alter the terrain; Roland pulled out a pistol and fired shots at the boar’s eyes and nose.
Blinded, the boar grew even more frantic, unable to see directions.
Roland drew a short sword, precisely piercing the boar’s heart.
After a fountain-like spray of blood, the boar collapsed beneath a giant rock over a hundred ters away.
Based on Roland’s estimate, the boar weighed at least six to seven hundred kilograms.
At such a weight, this was clearly no ordinary boar but possibly demonized.
In recent years, as the Sixth Return Day approached, incidents of beasts attacking people have beco more frequent.
Abnormally behaving wild animals were crudely nad demonized beasts.
In short, magical beasts.
Demonized beasts had minor conflicts with humans before quickly retreating into forests and mountains.
Human organizational ability and equipnt were not on the sa level as in the primitive era.
While one rifle might not take down a demonized beast, dozens of well-trained soldiers using specially made bullets could easily hunt them.
Demonized beasts have much higher intelligence than ordinary beasts, naturally they wouldn’t engage in such unprofitable endeavors.
