Following the instructions of the Holy Mirror and the powerful energy fluctuations that could be sensed even hundreds of kilometers away, Joshua flew all the way from the southeast of Grandia continent towards the Shaya Mountains.
The map obtained from the small town of Alleyn shows that this place was the junction of the two empires, with the Shaya Mountains and the Forest of Anchuan as the dividing point. The two countries built many semi-permanent fortifications to confront each other. Due to the many years of The two countries have never had any other conflicts other than proxy wars, so this place has gradually become a transportation thoroughfare and commercial hub.
However, this was almost thirty years ago. After the catastrophe, most of the armies in the Ulan Empire were dispersed by endless shadows of death. After all, the soldiers and rural bandits who lost supplies and equipment were no different. Far away, although the border legions of the Gru Empire lasted longer, they only lasted a few more years. Due to the endless invasion of the undead at night, all grassroots production in the two empires was almost completely shut down, and only the deep mountains and old forests could have a moment of rest. .
"The Forest of Anchuan is one of the few absolutely safe neutral sanctuaries in this world."
In the sacrificial hall of the small town of Alleyn, the old heroic spirit said this. At that time, he had a look of emotion on his face, as if he knew some secrets that others did not know: "A powerful being named Urbandeni lives there. In this forest, no matter who offers a sacrifice, it will protect that person. In addition, it is also an ancient life that has survived for at least nearly a thousand years and knows many secrets that humans have forgotten."
"Soldier, if you are looking for something or want to know any news, you can ask it."
But it is obvious that there are strong men fighting in the Anchuan Forest today.
Pushing all the way, Joshua wiped out at least tens of thousands of dead shadows. Of course, Joshua could detect that a fierce battle had occurred not long ago in the Shaya Mountains that was now shrouded in dust clouds. Of course, he could also discover that in the dust and fog, There is a huge being that is resting.
This unknown existence has a height of more than 400 meters in its upper body alone, and it is constantly absorbing the surrounding earth and rocks, condensing them into rock armor, making its body larger and larger. The warrior can see that its left arm is damaged. It was seriously injured, and it was seriously injured using a technique that Joshua was extremely familiar with.
Similar to the self-destruction of the Molten Star, or the power of the Sunlight Spear.
—This is probably the 'Lord of the Dark River' Urbandeni whom Alleyn spoke of.
The warrior suddenly understood. There was no doubt that this being who looked comparable to the Titans indeed had the confidence to open up a so-called absolutely safe shelter in this dangerous apocalyptic world, and yet he approached so rashly. There is no doubt that he will be attacked by an alert opponent.
But...what does it matter
If you want to ask for information properly, you need to show your strength.
Making an excuse for himself, the corner of Joshua's mouth showed a smile that was very familiar to the Shenji siblings behind him. He whispered: "Hotaro, Rin, you guys step back first, I will go and check the situation."
Due to the different rules of the alien world, a thought flashed through the minds of the Shenji siblings who could only maintain the form of weapons.
—Look at the situation, Master, you are obviously looking for a fight!
But regardless of the spiritual complaints about his weapons, the warrior had already dodged and flew rapidly towards the Shaya Mountains.
And sure enough, what greeted him was an angry punch from Titan.
Being bombarded by arrows of light, causing all the stone armor on his body to turn into lava, the giant arm broke through the dust mist and struck directly at several times the speed of sound. At this time, Urbandeni was like a lava demon from the abyss of hell. It did not distinguish the difference between the warriors and the previous dead shadow commanders at all, but simply vented its pain and anger.
"Death!" roared the giant.
"Well done!"
Looking at the punch that was like a mountain sweeping across, Joshua's eyes lit up. He stood firmly in mid-air, his muscles all pulsating. The battle energy that had been refined was circulating in his body. The energy fissioned layer by layer in his body, releasing a majestic force. With incomparable power, the warrior then opened his arms like this, letting his fists wrapped in golden light, like two suns, stretch out straight, like ants facing a speeding carriage, with the front facing the giant's weight. before hitting.
The next moment, the two came into contact.
The ants stopped the carriage.
Boom!
The roaring sound that shook the mountains rang out, and the two terrifying forces were oppressed to the extreme in an instant - it was like a nuclear bomb exploding on the spot. With large swaths of dust and mist rolling, a deadly translucent shock wave swept over the already shaky place. The Shaya Mountains caused the rock structure to collapse, with one-third of it collapsing. Countless rocks fell from the sky like rain.
After the explosion, the body of the huge rock giant could be seen falling backwards uncontrollably. Urbandeni stretched out his left hand, as if trying to grab the mountain to support his body, but it only left five traces on the mountain wall. There were deep finger marks, and the next moment, a mountain-like mass hit the ground. An impact like an eight-magnitude earthquake caused the earth and rocks to surge like water.
It can be seen that the giant's punching right hand has been completely turned into lava by the high temperature. The rocks in the depths are already full of cracks and look almost broken. The breath of the sun comes from it, tearing the atmosphere apart and bringing up the blazing heat. wind.
On the other side, because the warrior's own mass was too small, his whole body was now knocked away by this huge force and submerged into the clouds.
After flying thousands of meters upside down in mid-air, Joshua relied on his fighting spirit to stabilize his body and barely stop his movement. The aftermath of the giant's fist turned into a tornado and spread in all directions, causing the clouds around him to flash with thunder.
"It's a bit awesome."
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, the warrior completely neutralized the power of the giant's punch. He took a long breath in mid-air. There was a trace of electric light flashing in the hot breath with the smell of blood. It was the rapid operation and release of the extraordinary organs in the warrior's body. With the residual energy released, his fists were also bloody and fleshy at this time, and even the bones of his arms were distorted.
Even Joshua couldn't completely resolve the tens of millions of tons of upright and simple blow. From the arms where the flesh and blood collapsed, the blood flowed out rapidly like a fountain. However, the warrior's blood seemed to be alive. After flowing out, it Scabs formed quickly to cover the wound, and the twisted bones reset themselves with the peristalsis of muscles.
For Joshua, who was already close to the state of perfect body, this was just a minor injury.
Not far away, the skeleton puppet master driving the crystal golem suddenly made the golem he was sitting on stop flying.
"Not reinforcements?"
It said to itself with some confusion: "A fight has already started?"
The mist figure, which was extremely ethereal, as if it didn't exist at all, made an indistinct sound again.
"No, the opponent is a living person. If we go back now, it will only cause both sides to join forces to deal with us." The caster thought for a while, then shook his head and made a decision: "Moreover, this is not a real battle, they will end it soon. .”
The truth is exactly what it says.
The fallen Titan struggled to get up. It stretched out its arms and climbed onto other surrounding peaks, and then managed to stand upright again. Then, Urbandeni's angry voice rang through the sky.
"Human! You and the group of dead shadows are not together, why do you want to provoke!"
After exchanging blows with the warriors, the giant immediately realized that the possessors of this extremely pure life energy could not be the spirits of the dead who had resurrected from their long rest. Even if they were the God of Arrows who could control the arrows of the Sun God, the arrows There is also a hint of deathly silence in the meaning, which is a breath that only those who have died can possess.
Joshua's life energy naturally does not have this aura. On the contrary, his power contains enough vitality to regenerate dead trees. It has nothing to do with the shadow of death. Urbandeni knew on the spot that he was probably taking action. wrong.
But it is also very aggrieved - because it sensed the warrior's fighting spirit, it decided that the opponent was the enemy, and then took action with all its strength to vent its anger. But now, since it knows that the opponent is not the enemy, Urbandeni, who has been injured, will never He will find a strong enemy for himself.
Of course, Joshua couldn't explain this kind of problem. After hearing the giant's question, he knew that there was no way to continue the fight, so he sighed with regret. However, there was a glimmer of light in the warrior's eyes. , he got some information from the opponent's punch.
The Lord of Anchuan didn't use much skill in this blow. The Titan simply used his own strength to add mountain-moving power to his punch, but what Joshua knew was not that These.
He felt something similar to the aura of the Earth Divine Sword—the Ember Earth Sword that almost killed him!
—This world is indeed inextricably linked to the Mycroft Continent. The soldier thought so. But the specific connection still needs to be inquired and analyzed.
Slowly flying back to the Shaya Mountains, the warrior with two weapons floating behind him had to listen to the nagging of the Shenji siblings behind him.
"Master, this time it's obvious that as long as you just walk by normally there won't be any conflict, why do you have to fly over so arrogantly..."
"Yes, from the looks of it, this giant is very powerful. If it hadn't been injured in the previous battle, even Master you might not have been able to do anything to it in your heyday."
The silver-haired girl's voice echoed helplessly in the warrior's mind: "It's okay to look for those dead shadows. This giant is obviously at least a neutral party. What if it turns into the enemy?"
Hotaru and Rin's opinions and complaints were very pertinent, but to Joshua, who was deliberately trying to test the giant's strength and see how his strength was recovering, they were meaningless.
He came to the top of the Shaya Mountains again, but this time, the giant did not punch.
"The peak of heaven... When did a strong man of this level appear in the Gru Empire..."
In the Titan's deep rock eye sockets, two purple flames were burning. Urbandeni stared at the warrior in front of him, and an instinctive guess flashed in his heart: "No, some time ago, there was a fluctuation in space and time at the southeastern edge. This should be a strong man from another world... But why is the aura on his body so similar to ours? Why did he come to this world? "
In the continent of Grandia, powerful people from the outside world occasionally come to communicate. After the two parties exchanged some knowledge and information, they never met each other again due to the barrier of time and space. However, because of this, everyone has a different understanding of the differences. Although visitors to the world may be surprised, they are not ignorant.
"Wandering in multiple worlds in order to find a way to break through the sanctuary?"
Joshua didn't care what the other person was thinking. He just landed on the top of a mountain and stared at the behemoth in front of him.
-really! It is definitely related to the Mother Earth Goddess!
The soldier immediately confirmed the opponent's identity.
In the past life, in the late period of the Great Demon Tide, many divine mists from the boundless heaven were broken through by many elite players. [Raging Lan], [Ringyang Sea Breeze], [Hundred-Headed Demonic Snake], [Rock Mountain Giant], came from the war. God, the incarnation of the ocean, the divine mist of the ancestral behemoth and the Mother Earth, were the last ones to be conquered.
The last challenge of the Earth Mother Goddess, the Mountain Titan, is to defeat a 'Mountain Titan' whose height is more than a thousand meters tall, and whose every move will cause continent-level natural disasters!
Different from the common elemental Titans, the Chongshan Titans are direct descendants of the Mother Goddess of the Earth. They can ignore the conflict of elements and use multiple elements to build their bodies, carrying all the power like the earth. But now, it is probably dark in front of them. Joshua has already seen multiple attributes such as 'earth', 'fire', 'water' and 'plants' on the giant of the Lord of the River, which is enough to prove the identity of the other party, a Titan with the blood of God.
Neither party spoke first, but looked at each other cautiously, studied each other, and analyzed the information on the other party. However, not long after, Joshua, who had roughly completed the analysis, took the lead and said: "This is the first time we meet, the powerful Titan, you should be the one." The owner of this place, Urbandeni, the Lord of Anchuan?”
The giant, who had not seen through the soldier for a long time, snorted coldly and acquiesced to his identity.
For Joshua, because he did take the initiative to provoke - of course, the giant on the opposite side also felt that he took the initiative to attack, so the attitudes of both him and Urbandeni were quite peaceful, not because of the previous The anger generated by the fight, and even the opposite, the warrior had a very good impression of this powerful Titan.
"Humanity."
The giant opened his mouth and made a sound that made the mountains tremble: "Why did you come here? With your strength, you don't need my protection, so you just want to ask for information?"
"Yes." Joshua neatly took out a handful of original crystals including the fragments of the Holy Stone Seed, which he had flown all the way. After sensing the powerful energy fluctuations below, he went to look for them. After getting it, the warrior used his fighting spirit to suspend these dazzling gems in the air, and said loudly to the giant: "I want to ask some questions, and these are the sacrifices presented to you."
"... It's okay, just ask."
Glancing at the gems in mid-air, Urbandeni nodded slightly. Although there were not many raw crystal fragments, the quality was indeed very good. For the sake of these gems, the giant decided not to care about the other party's injury to him. .
—Anyway, it’s very tricky, and you may not be able to defeat it.
And Joshua also asked his own question.
He described the appearance of the red-haired dragon-winged girl in detail, and also pointed out the style of the robe on her body. The warrior could tell that the other party was being hunted by the shadows of death, and the number must be quite large. For this continent, this should not be a trivial matter that can be easily forgotten.
After hearing this question, a strange expression appeared on the face made of Titan's rock.
"I can answer this question, but can you tell me why you are looking for the other person and whether your intentions are good or evil?"
Joshua thought for a few seconds. He felt that there was no need to hide this matter, so he stretched out his hand and pressed it on his heart.
The cyan light of order began to fluctuate, which made Urbandeni, who sensed the fluctuations in Hilya's robes, froze.
"As you can see, I'm here to find this long-lost companion."
Joshua said frankly: "I come from another place... Your Excellency, the Lord of Anchuan?"
The warrior was about to introduce his origin and the reason for looking for the other party, but he saw the Titan in front of him shaking his head.
"...Human, if you ask this question, I won't accept your sacrifice."
Urbandeni turned his head and looked towards the southwest of the continent. Purple flames were tumbling in the giant's eyes: "She should be on the other side of the continent now."
Before that, the semi-positioning portal that had been constructed by the Lord of Anchuan had been transported to the dragon-winged girl in a desolate wilderness. She was looking around with a confused look on her face.
"Where... is this?"
