Chapter 1147: Section 708: Transaction (1)
At noon, Malin led the caravan south once again, spending a night at the outpost they had reached before. The next day, Malin guided the caravan along the mountain path by the river. Malin initially thought the caravan wouldn’t be able to pass, but surprisingly, the caravans used machine beasts. These hexapod mechanical bodies could be operated by humans known as operators using Spiritual Energy. Large-scale operations would require a terrifying amount of Spiritual Energy, but half of the caravan was made up of operators—meaning that controlling one beast was quite simple and only required basic skills.
Therefore, Malin only needed to sit on the third beast where the person in charge was located and guide them.
According to the person in charge, they had never been to this eerie place before, describing it as a blindfolded horror environment.
Malin specifically marked the path on the map for them. Although adventure groups had entered this area long ago, except for the river and some safe areas along the river that had been explored and marked on public maps, most places were only marked on the Adventurers’ Guild internal map in New Hangzhou.
The person in charge said that knowing or not knowing those places made no difference; they were either dangerous or extremely dangerous. These caravans could deal with small-scale zombie tides or a few mutated beasts, but the dangers in the Dark Zone were incredibly perilous and fatal for them.
Thus, if it weren’t for Malin and Sage Yu’s identity, this caravan wouldn’t have been able to enter the Dark Zone at all—after all, there are plenty of opportunities to earn money, but if you lose your life, then you have nothing left.
By noon, Malin and the caravan arrived at his hometown.
In just one day’s time, Malin scratched his head as he looked at the fortress ahead—what are these zombies up to?
With this doubt, Malin walked over and stood alone in front of the large gate assembled from various scrap metal sheets.
