They could never have imagined that all of this was due to a high-ranking demon sitting in the leading carriage.
If they knew, I'm afraid their mood wouldn't be so relaxed.
Day after day, two days and two nights of journey led this team into the depths of the desolate eastern region, where the shadows of those dilapidated cities could be seen from afar.
The places where the demons once resided have been completely transformed under the baptism of war, and the presence of a large number of demons has also turned many cities into ruins.
As they were about to reach their destination, Shen Yanxiao and the others encountered a group of people on the way.
A human team consisting of three to four hundred people.
It's not uncommon to see demons in barren lands, but it's very strange to see humans.
The group of people were camping in a forest, building bonfires, and gradually entering and exiting a nearby cave.
They were pushing carts in their hands, and carts of dark ore were being transported out of the cave.
Shen Yanxiao ordered the team to stop, got off the carriage, and looked at the group of abrupt humans.
What are they doing? "Shen Yanxiao looked at the people and asked Uncle Nine beside him.
Jiushu said, "They are mining minerals, and the barren land has been abandoned for a long time. However, the resources here are indeed the most abundant in the Guangming Continent. The four countries want to cultivate this area precisely because of the inexhaustible resources here. Look at the ore on their cars, which is obsidian. Obsidian is extremely rare in the Guangming Continent, and weapons forged from obsidian are incredibly tough. If used to build city walls, even with dense magic and artillery, there will probably be no gap in every March or May
Shen Yanxiao raised his eyebrows slightly, realizing that this seemingly perilous place holds the richest treasure of the Bright Continent.
But there's one question she's curious about.
The eastern part of the desolate land belongs to the jurisdiction of the Longxuan Empire. As far as I know, the winners of recent college competitions have all stayed in the desolate land for less than two or three months before leaving. We should now be considered the only team of the Longxuan Empire. So where did those people come from? "Shen Yanxiao smiled.
Jiushu said, "Judging from their attire, they don't look like people from the Longxuan Empire. They should be personnel from other three kingdoms stationed in barren lands
Shen Yanxiao sneered coldly.
Are you really bullying me? No one in Longxuan? You actually reached out your hand onto my territory
There was an agreement within the four countries that although it was not possible to cultivate barren land in a short period of time, the barren land was divided into four regions: southeast, northwest, and north. Even if no one successfully cultivated this area in the Longxuan Empire, according to the Four Nation Treaty, people from other countries must not occupy anything here.
Now, it's better that Shen Yanxiao just stepped into her territory and saw someone stealing resources that belonged to her.
And it's a blatant plunder!
Don't worry, the foundation of the other three kingdoms in the barren land is already deep, and we haven't built a city yet. If we have a conflict with them at this time, it will be very detrimental to us. "Uncle Jiu saw that Shen Yanxiao was a little angry and quickly comforted him.
Shen Yanxiao sneered and said, "Do I have to watch helplessly as what belongs to me is taken away by someone under my nose? I can't say I can't hate it, I can only swallow my pride
For now... it can only be like this, "Uncle Jiu sighed. It was well known that the progress of the Longxuan Empire in the barren land was at a disadvantage.
