The journey out of the Holy City went smoothly, or rather, too smoothly.
There is no need to go through any customs clearance formalities. When foreign travelers leave, they do not take the normal path. They take the "God's Path".
The God of Travel, the people of the East chose this god for no reason. His duties include "travel", and his priority is very high.
That means that when necessary, his church and divine domain can provide extremely high "mobility".
"Now is the time of necessity. The disintegration of the world's defense rules has made many originally restricted abilities unimpeded."
On that day, when the explorers entered the kingdom of God, they left their home planet first, so naturally it was not unnecessary.
It is extremely difficult for the evil god to dig a hole in the earth. The cost of sending something over is also extremely high. Basically, he will definitely lose money, and he may be hunted back to his hometown.
"Cross-space teleportation" is originally prohibited by the rules of the world. In other words, forcibly tearing apart space is a provocation and destruction to the world.
If the explorers were on the surface, they would have to pay a huge price to enter the Kingdom of God, but after leaving the home planet, teleportation becomes very easy.
The same is basically true for other worlds. Most worlds have "immune systems". The destination of Lu Pingping and his party does not.
When they entered this planet, they were teleported directly from the Kingdom of God in the sky, and they arrived at the headquarters of the Church of the God of Travel very easily.
This means that the space defense system of this planet cannot be said to be rock solid, at least it is as if it is nothing.
I'm afraid that all kinds of monsters, monsters, evil spirits and demons can easily come to this world, but this is a good thing for outsiders and explorers.
The priesthood of the God of Travel involves travel, but before, even if the divine power was exhausted, teleportation was extremely limited. Now, teleportation has become cheap and stable between various "churches (stations)".
Perhaps the God of Travel is not a good priest, nor can he provide explorers with any powerful military resources, but just a "fast travel" makes "explorers" from other countries envious.
If you have Explorer status, borrowing the teleportation service is quite simple.
But when they just walked out of the dilapidated church, everyone felt a strong discomfort, or rather
".This is just right."
Walking out of the ruin-like church, what you see is a long night, but it is not true silence.
The starry sky above our heads guides the way, the bright twin moons are too dazzling, and the roar of beasts, the sound of wind, and the faint screams together form the main theme outside this area.
A calm night is not really peaceful.
"Scream? Is it a human voice?"
As soon as the group arrived in the Outland, they noticed something was wrong.
A few kilometers away, there was a place where black smoke and red light gathered, which was also the source of the screams.
"Let's go and have a look."
The muddy mountain road was a bit difficult to walk, and everyone still needed time to adapt to walking at night with lanterns. When they arrived at the location, it was already too late.
The dilapidated carriage was reduced to rubble. In addition to corpses, the messy killing scene also contained strange beasts and mutilated corpse monsters.
The carriages were piled up like a wall, with old wooden boards forming a simple protective layer. Two bonfires were lit at the forefront, but obviously they did not show their ability to drive away wild beasts.
Gray beasts were foraging on the dark ruins, biting and rummaging for scraps of meat on the ground.
When the outsiders arrived, green eyes looked at them one by one. The silver moon, the dark night, and the greedy green pupils together formed this ruthless world.
".Kill them."
The battle was destined to end the moment it began.
Some slightly demonized beasts cannot stop a professional charge.
Lu Pingan immediately took one and threw it to the ground, turning it into a flower of flesh and blood.
He shook his head and gave the young man the chance to fight.
The battle lasted for a minute and then ended, and then it took more time to clean up the battlefield.
"They are all ordinary people. They look like businessmen. There are two holding low-level enchanted weapons. They may be mercenaries or militiamen."
The caravan was attacked by a group of demonized canine-like beasts.
The initially demonized beast is not very strong, and does not even have the ability to leave an impression on Lu Ping An and his party. A single cat can easily handle it.
But for ordinary people, it is quite fatal. Seeing that they were suddenly attacked while resting at night, those fires used to drive away wild beasts have no meaning to monsters.
The corpses were cleared out one by one, and eleven lives ended in a meaningless wilderness.
The next moment, sudden shouts and the sound of horse hooves from the outside attracted everyone's attention.
A vaguely black armored knight walked out of the night quickly, led by a red-haired female knight.
"Don't move! This is the Knights of the Shining Fire led by Schley. We have received a request for help from a beast attack. Who are you!"
The riding beast is covered in armor, and the knight holds torches and enchanted weapons. It looks like he is well-equipped.
They kept a safe distance, but kept their muskets and crossbows aimed at Lu Pingping and his party.
The battle was about to break out, but it still didn't start. The female knight stretched out her hand and stopped her men from making any move.
"We are foreign scholars who have just come out of the abandoned church of the Traveler God. We are botanists who came to the forest area to look for plants. This is our letter of introduction and customs clearance documents."
At this moment, Lu Ping'an was already prepared. He took out the documents that he had prepared for a long time, and then threw them over as they requested.
And each torch came closer, illuminating the corpses on the ground, the corpses of the beasts, and the scars where the merchant died from the mouths of the beasts.
In addition, the help seekers among the merchants said that they were attacked by wild beasts, which made it more convincing.
"Are you outsiders?"
The next moment, I don't know which sensitive nerve was touched, and the arrows that were originally hanging were raised to take aim again, and anger appeared on the faces of the knights.
This is obviously a reality that cannot be concealed, and the racial differences are too obvious.
"Outsiders? Of course, we came here specifically to Shilai. We just came from the Holy Capital today."
"today."
The female knight confirmed the date on the letter and at the same time, whispered behind her.
"Is it them?"
"No, although they are all exotic races, they are not the same species. Those guys are smaller."
Finally, the female knight breathed a sigh of relief and saw Lu Ping'an and his party collecting the corpses, preparing to bury them in peace, and she became a little friendlier.
"Come with us, we are the guardian knights of Schleiland. Please forgive us for being overly cautious. A lot of things have happened recently, a lot."
After the initial unpleasant meeting, the subsequent exchanges became relatively friendly. However, Lu Pingan noticed that the knights always maintained a certain safe distance and occupied the encirclement and killing position. They were still on guard.
But soon, Lu Ping'an realized that there was a reason for such vigilance. If it were him, he might have gone too far.
"A group of outsiders under the guise of philanthropists attacked and robbed local lords and wealthy businessmen, and then ran away with the treasure. We are tracking them."
The narrative of the female knight Catherine is filled with helplessness and exhaustion.
A group of outsiders had come to this remote urban area for a year or two before. They built workshops and provided help to the poor and were very respected.
But just three days ago, they suddenly gave up their "charity", attacked local wealthy businessmen and nobles without any warning, stole some things, and ran away.
Hearing this, everyone on Lu Ping'an looked at each other. This seemed to be an innocent disaster, but it seemed that it really had something to do with him and his party.
Obviously, these are also a group of visitors from outside the world, and may even be of the same race as the Earth. However, it is obvious that they have lost the confidence to continue operating here, so they try to recover the cost as much as possible and then run away.
As for whether it was true charity all along, but ended up running away for some reason, or whether it was just collecting intelligence under the guise of charity, people now know too little, and it is difficult to make a judgment.
This is not good news for Lu Ping'an and his party. I don't know if they succeeded in getting away some "treasures", but running so fast, it is obvious that the situation is not good.
And their "betrayal" naturally caused both mental and physical damage to the local people. It's no wonder that these knights looked at their group with such unkind eyes.
But Lu Ping'an knew how to open the window at this time.
"We are the Rebirth Chamber of Commerce, not a charity. What we value is fair trade. Sir Knight, are you interested in taking a look at our goods?"
