"Sir, there is a space rift over there!"
Standing on a raised earth mound, the big stone pointed to a strange dark crack several miles away.
In fact, there was no need for the big stone to point to the earth bag at the highest point in the vicinity. Nalant was also the first to notice the existence that he had never seen before.
It was a dark crack that appeared on the ground out of thin air. Its existence was very abrupt, like a deep crack being torn out of a beautiful landscape painting, making the originally normal grassland change into something strange.
And around this crack, there is still a strong black air emerging.
To be honest, this was the first time Nalant had seen such a thing.
Tear apart space and open a passage. This was something that even in the technologically advanced society of the past life, it could not be done.
"Sir, this is indeed a space crack of dark creatures, but it is so small in scale. This is the first time I have seen it!" Old White, who was specially attracted by Nalant's arrival this time, also looked at the distant creature without blinking. A reduced version of the space crack, with doubts on his face.
"Yeah!" Nalant nodded, there was no doubt about the space cracks of dark creatures.
The only thing that remains to be seen now is how much of a threat this spatial rift poses to him.
Immediately, Nalant picked up the telescope in his hand and looked towards the crack in space.
At this moment, apart from the black energy, there are no other dark creatures in front of the space crack, because there is a group of more than ten dark creatures four or five miles to the southwest.
That should be the dark creature that walked out of the space crack before and headed directly towards the depths of the grassland.
At that moment, Nalant continued to stay on this breakthrough with his telescope.
He wanted to see how often these dark creatures teleported over.
If the frequency is not too high, then the pressure he faces will be much less.
"Sir, look, a dark creature is about to teleport over!" After just waiting for about ten minutes, the space crack in front of him changed.
I saw that the originally weak death energy suddenly became thicker and continued to flourish from the cracks in the dark space.
And the space around the space crack also began to ripple, as if stones were thrown into the calm lake surface.
And with the change, the next moment the figure of the dark creature slowly walked out of the space crack.
The skeleton soldiers walking at the front were the skeleton soldiers. As more than a dozen skeleton soldiers walked out slowly, a death knight appeared one after another from behind, plus two large bugs that Nalant had never seen before.
This should be the bug that looks like a bedbug that Dashiru said that day.
"Sir, that is a second-level corpse-eating insect. Its teeth are so sharp that it can even bite through iron blocks, and the carapace on its back is also extremely strong. Ordinary guards cannot deal with it with swords!"
"Fortunately, sir, you have the sacred thorns. You only need to use the sacred thorns to make an iron whip and whip him as you did last time!"
Old White immediately gave Nalant an explanation at this time.
"Well! Come on, let's go there now. It looks like this crack should transmit a wave every hour. It means there are about a dozen dark creatures in the light!"
Nalant nodded and immediately calculated the frequency of the appearance of dark creatures. The distance from the group of dark creatures in front plus his waiting time was still an hour.
However, this is also good news. At least he can guard against such a large number of dark creatures.
At this moment, among the dark creatures that had just come out, the death knight seemed to have noticed their presence and had raised his head to stare in their direction.
"Yes, sir!"
"Knights of the Storm, get ready for battle! Let's go!"
Immediately, Nalant drove directly out of the dirt bag with his subordinates.
Ho ho ho!
When Nalant and others went downhill, the death knight also began to roar.
Although there are only a dozen of them, there is no fear at all.
Under the leadership of the death knight, they crashed straight into Nalant and the others.
"Knights of the Storm! Charge!"
Without Nalant's orders, Quick immediately issued orders to the Storm Riders upon seeing this.
Immediately, twenty-five knights broke away from the team, accelerated their speed, and began to charge.
The five knights rushing at the front had already taken out a three-meter-long iron whip.
Facing this iron rope made of sacred thorns, needless to say what happened to these dozen dark creatures. It was just a few minutes after the death knight died that they had basically no fighting power.
The only person who could resist for a moment longer was the corpse-eating insect that Nalant saw for the first time today.
Although this beetle has short legs, it rushes very fast and has a hard shell, just like a small loaf of bread.
However, with the flexible movement of several knights, they would be killed with one whip after another with the iron whip.
"Sir, all dark creatures have been dealt with!"
"Well, clean up the battlefield and the team will move on. We will go directly to the front of the space crack!" Nalant nodded, very satisfied with the battle between Quik and others.
Of course, the most important thing is that a system prompt came from his previous thoughts.
"Ding! The host's subordinates killed a third-level death knight, and the reward energy points have been distributed!"
Following this voice, Nalant's energy points, which had been reduced to 93 points, returned to 94 points.
"Energy points are a good thing. Save more. When you are almost there, I will play hard to get strange fruits!"
"Yes, sir!"
Soon, Quirk and others took the broken swords and broken armor left by the dark creatures to the carriage behind them.
"Sir, the corpses of these two corpse-eating bugs are also valuable!" Just as the team was packing up their loot and moving on, Old White suddenly reminded them.
"Well, what's the use of the corpse of a corpse-eating insect?"
"Sir, the shell of this corpse insect is very hard, harder than ordinary iron, and lighter in weight, so the armies of the great nobles in the Holy Continent all use this corpse insect shell to make shields, and they are also high-quality shields! "
"Oh? Quick, put it away then!" Nalant nodded. The shell of this corpse-eating insect is indeed hard. If it can be used as a shield, it will be very practical.
After the shells of the two ghouls were also loaded onto the carriage, Nalant and others immediately moved toward the crack in space.
When they got closer to the space crack, which was more than 500 meters away, the front had turned into a scorched black, and even the snow was very sparse, and only a thin layer could not cover the ground at all.
Nalant was also very curious about this so-called death place, so he immediately rode a white dragon and stepped on it.
After entering this death place, he immediately felt the difference.
In an instant, his whole body was wrapped in a strong death aura, and even the thick cotton clothes could not help him. It was actually more uncomfortable than before when he was lying on the snow that was only a few dozen centimeters thick.
In addition, Nalant also started sensing the conditions in the surrounding space.
In his induction, within the range eroded by this death energy, all kinds of fighting energy elements and magic power around him were almost missing, and there was only the dark aura of death and evil.
"Sir, fortunately, the size of this space crack is not too big. It only covers an area of more than 500 meters in so many days. If the space crack in the Holy Continent were to erode the surrounding four or five miles of land in a week, and that Dark creatures appear in thousands."
"Well, let's go, let's plant the sacred thorns first!"
Narant could imagine how terrifying such a space crack would be, and he didn't know whether he would be able to complete the main mission of the system in his lifetime.
When Nalant and others approached more than ten meters in front of the space crack, the atmosphere around them became colder.
The dark space crack in front of him seemed to be the abyss of hell. Staring into it, the hairs all over his body would stand up unconsciously.
And all of Nalant's guards looked even pale.
"Sir, you can just plant these thorns here. With the nourishment of death energy, they can grow faster!" Old White, as a person from the Holy Continent, is well-informed about this situation.
Although there is no fighting spirit in his body now, his complexion is still natural.
"Well, let's get started!"
"Yes, Lord Lord!"
Following Nalant's instructions, several barbarian coolies immediately began to carry down the sacred thorns loaded on the carriage, and then began to dig holes in the ground.
After these days of growth, after absorbing the death energy of the three-headed hell dog and Bessie's innate power, ten more sacred thorns matured.
In this way, Nalant brought a total of fifteen plants this time, five of which were the first ones to mature.
Although most of the branches have been removed by Nalant, there are still three or two branches on them, and the roots are intact. They can still survive if they are planted like this, and they still have restraint against dark creatures.
Needless to say, the speed at which the barbarians worked was only a matter of minutes. Fifteen large semicircular pits were dug.
Immediately, the sacred thorns were placed one meter wide at intervals.
Originally, if conditions permit, one can put thorns directly next to thorns, so as to directly block the dark creatures. Unfortunately, Nalant only has a few mature sacred thorns on hand, so he can only wait and see later.
And when the fifteen sacred thorns were planted, there was no need to water them. The branches and leaves began to emit a soft white light, which was brighter than ever before.
"Sure enough, it is a treasure that can restrain dark creatures!" Nalant couldn't help but sigh.
Death energy is a fatal poison to other plants and living things. Even ordinary people will die if they stay here for three to five days.
But the sacred thorn was like a powerful medicine, and it immediately became full of vitality.
Without this sacred thorn, it would be impossible for Nalant to suppress this spatial rift.
"Ah, sir, look, the land under the sacred thorns is turning white!" At this moment, the little girl Shirley, who was standing among the crowd, exclaimed.
It turned out that as the sacred thorn began to absorb the death energy, the black land of more than ten centimeters around its root was fading at a speed visible to the naked eye, slowly returning to its original color.
Of course, it will take time to completely restore the land. It's just that the sacred thorns have just been planted now, so the changes in appearance are so obvious.
"Sir, relying on these sacred thorns, we should be able to restrain the invasion of death energy, but it will probably take at least more than a month to completely restore the surrounding land!"
"Well, as long as you can restrain it!" Nalant was not in a hurry, but now he was very curious about something, so he paused and continued: "Old White, since dark creatures can use the cracks in space to come to our area. Continent, have any of us humans ever traveled to the dark world through space rifts?”
"This... Sir, I have never heard of anyone going to the dark world, because when dark creatures appear, it means a catastrophe, and all species are retreating. If it were not for the sacred thorns, I am afraid that the sacred continent would have been destroyed by darkness. Biological occupation!"
"Of course, it could also be because my status is too low, so I don't know if anyone has entered!"
"Okay!" Nalant nodded, this matter can only be explored later.
Next, Rinalante and others did not leave, but continued to stay where they were and wait.
Although the sacred thorns are planted, the effect must be tested.
