Chapter 164: Twisted Netherworld
The soldiers of Qiuye Chamber of Commerce were trained in the Chamber of Commerce's own territory. Their levels are at least above level 20, and there are many elite soldiers with elite templates of more than level .

With these soldiers, both setting up camp and daily guarding are left to them, and the professionals can sit on camels or their own mounts. They don't have to worry about being attacked by wild beasts on the road. Anyway, if there is an ambush, the first attack will be on the guard soldiers. They can even close their eyes and sleep while traveling.

The caravan set out in the morning and reached the edge of the realm by noon.

A soldier rode his warhorse back and forth along the caravan, shouting:
"The team is about to leave the realm and enter the void. Everyone, cheer up and be ready to fight at any time."

Chu Cheng, who had been resting with his eyes closed, finally opened his eyes, stuck his head out of the window, and saw the darkness at the end of the road ahead.

It's still daytime on this side, but it's night on the other side.

The two Devil Tyrannosaurus Rex at the front of the caravan dived into the darkness, just like diving into black ink, slowly blending into it and disappearing.

The team moved forward, one by one disappearing into the darkness.

Soon it was Chu Cheng's camel's turn. He watched the darkness approaching him, and then everything in front of him suddenly went dark.

But it was not completely dark. It was as if one had entered a thick fog. The vision and perception were greatly distorted. One could only see and perceive within a range of less than two meters around him. Nothing could be seen beyond that.

However, I could hear the voices, as well as the commands and chaotic sounds coming from the front.

Chu Cheng opened the panel and saw a series of data:
"Hint: You are affected by the environmental domain, your vision is suppressed by 99%, your perception is suppressed by 99%, and you receive 5 points of shadow damage every 10 seconds in the twisted domain."

Less than half a minute later, a point of starlight suddenly appeared in front of us, and quickly grew into a ball as big as the moon, which was extremely eye-catching in the darkness.

Ten seconds later, a second ball of light appeared in the darkness.

The third regiment, the fourth regiment.

After a few minutes, someone came to their camel and hung a lamp in a place in front of their carriage that seemed to be specially used for hanging lamps.

After being lit, the light illuminates the surroundings and extends to twenty or thirty meters away.

Although it can't illuminate too far, it is enough to see the road. Using the light ball in front as a coordinate, you can ensure that you won't get lost.

At this time, Chu Cheng looked at the panel again and the prompt had changed. The suppression had changed from 99% to 90%, and the original environmental damage was gone.

He looked around curiously, and at first glance he saw that the ground under their feet was not the flat ground as they had imagined, but a pitch-black void. Wisps of black air twisted and swirled in the void, but they walked as if on flat ground and did not fall into the void.

Chu Cheng was aware of this situation, as the information he had collected previously contained content related to this.

The main reason is that the world is not completely broken, and the underlying rule framework of the world is still intact. The world itself has a repair mechanism. After unknown tens of thousands of years of repair, the world's laws and the infiltrated laws of the void have gradually merged through billions of times of repair and destruction, thus forming this peculiar region that is similar to the void but not the void, but has some of the characteristics of the void.

To put it bluntly, the void between the fragments of this realm is not the bottomless void between the worlds.

This dangerous void-like Jedi is called the Twisting Realm in this world.

In this twisted realm, there live a large number of twisted monsters that are affected by twisted laws and the void, also called shadow monsters.

The bodies, blood and souls of these monsters have been distorted. They have no intelligence and cannot communicate. They will attack living people crazily when they see them and will not stop until they are dead.

They are now located on the edge of the outpost base. Every once in a while, a strong man will lead a team of professionals to go out for a cleanup, so it is relatively safe.

Chu Cheng was only curious for a few minutes, and all he saw was the unchanging darkness and distortion. He soon lost interest and looked away.

It’s better to look at Fang Xi than this, the beauty is much more pleasing to the eye.

There was no need for a veil in front of him, the cloak was pulled down, revealing a delicate and flawless face.

Although her appearance is slightly inferior to Fang Ziling, who had once glimpsed her beauty, she is also a rare top-level beauty. There is no flaw in her appearance from any angle, and she is quite attractive. In addition, her figure is also top-notch.
"Let's play a game of chess!"

He took out a Go board and placed it on the table, looking at her with a smile. Fang Xi tilted her head and thought for a moment, then nodded.

"Okay!"

"You move first, black."

She pinched a black dot with her slender fingers. The black and white contrasted with her skin, which was so white and tender that it seemed to be dripping with water.

Playing chess with a beauty is extremely pleasing to the eye. Winning or losing is not important at all; what matters is that it looks good.

Chu Cheng did not hide the admiration in his eyes, and Fang Xi also knew his evil intentions and did not reject or dislike his gaze, which was very obvious encouragement.

It just so happened that they had nothing to do, so they played chess and chatted, and their relationship progressed by leaps and bounds.

As time went by, the caravan quickly passed through this twisted dark area and arrived at the No. 2 stronghold.

This is a territory fragment with a total area of ​​7,000 to 8,000 square kilometers. Half of the land is plains, and the other part is mountainous areas and forests. There is a river and a small lake, and the stronghold is built beside the lake.

Here along the river and lake there is a city, six towns, and hundreds of villages of various sizes, with a population of over 100,000 and millions of acres of reclaimed farmland.

The caravan entered the stronghold and stayed there for a day, selling some daily necessities and purchasing a batch of food.

The next afternoon, the caravan passed through the realm fragments and entered the twisted realm again.

After another two days of traveling, the team appeared at outpost No. 3.

This fragment of the realm is full of mountains and is not suitable for farming, but it is rich in mines, with more than 20 mines of various sizes.

The caravan sold a batch of daily necessities and food, but did not purchase any minerals. They will take them away when they return.

This is inter-dimensional trading, harvesting various resources from foreign realms to supplement the insufficient resources in the main world.

After leaving outpost No. 3, the team entered the twisted realm again.

Darkness enveloped the caravan. Chu Cheng retracted his gaze and said to Fang Xi with a smile:

"Today we are playing Gobang, I will let you win"

"Roar!"

Suddenly, a huge roar was heard from the front. The two of them stopped and looked forward quickly.

At this time, someone rode up ahead and shouted:
"There is an ambush by the Shadow Tribe. The team stops. The camels gather towards the flashing light. All professionals are ready to fight!"

Chu Cheng raised his eyebrows and immediately became alert.

After following the caravan for so long, we finally encountered a shadow monster.

The two team members in the other carriages of the camel beast jumped out one after another, quickly equipped themselves with weapons and armor and prepared for battle.

"Roar!"

Another deafening roar of a beast came from another direction. A huge sound wave swept through, and the black edge of the light kept undulating like waves.

"The sound is different. There is more than one such beast."

Chu Cheng also drew out his weapon and stared intently at the darkness thirty meters away.
