“Roar!”

As he passed through a hill, a terrifying monster suddenly emerged from the dark lake. It was a Level 60 Giant Crocodile King, and its two-meter-long bloody mouth charged at Lorne.

[Angel’s Descent]

Lorne flew as fast as he could away from the battlefield.

It was also thanks to his Agility attribute that he had been able to escape from such a terrifying monster.

“Looks like invisibility is not omnipotent.”

Lorne had used the effect of the [Ghost Shadow Necklace] earlier, but the other party had still discovered him.

From this, it could be known that when the difference in level between the two sides was more than 20 levels, Ghost Shadow’s invisibility would be seen through.

“After approaching the Dragon Ridge, the monsters became more and more terrifying.”

Lorne had arrived at the edge of the two maps. From here, he could see the mountain range that looked like a dragon’s back.

Behind that place was the border of Iron Skull City.

There was an icy plain of calamity that had existed for hundreds of millions of years. It was a restricted area that was sealed in ice.

Ten thousand years ago, a group of greedy and tyrannical people appeared in the Dark Abyss. They were affected by the power of darkness and became the degenerates of humans. They hid in the Empire Alliance, and there were even some who held immense power.

Later, the war between darkness and light erupted, and the alliance army of the Empire and the army of the rebels fought a long battle.

The final result was naturally the Light faction obtaining the final victory.

As for the rebels, they were driven to the northernmost land of extreme cold, which was the current icy plain of calamity.

Unfortunately, such an extreme environment did not cause the traitors to die.

On the contrary, the rebels created a small ‘Dark Abyss’ in a huge crack in the glacier!

It was also because the dark power in that crack had always existed that that place gradually became the current icy plain of calamity.

In order to prevent the other party from invading, the dragons had specially built a Cold Desolate Dragon City on the Dragon Ridge.

Now that Cold Desolate Dragon City was gone, what replaced it were the large cities built by humans, Iron Skull City, and the countless fortresses at the border.

Of course, Lorne did not want to go near the Dragon Ridge. It was much more dangerous there.

Fortunately, according to the information of the dragon, Walter, the location of the Cold Desolate Dragon City was close to the Lake of Death.

Most importantly, there was a huge extinct volcano near the Cold Desolate Dragon City. This was important information to find the city.

Lorne took out the Dragon Soul Compass and carefully followed the map.

….

Soon, it was the last day of the event.

Lorne had been searching for two days at the border between the Dragon Ridge Mountain Range and the Lake of Death.

In the past two days, Lorne had been in a terrible state. The Bosses he had encountered along the way were too powerful. Even when he used the Ghost Shadow Necklace, he had been attacked by countless monsters.

In the hands of Bosses above Level 50, they only needed one finger to crush a young adventurer like Lorne.

Fortunately, he had the help of his pets. Despite the difficulty, he passed through the monsters safely.

Today was almost over, but he still could not find the mysterious Cold Desolate Dragon City.

At this moment, the Treasure Seeking talent suddenly made a new discovery.

Ding!

“Congratulations on discovering an undetectable [Unknown Mine], the coordinates have been recorded for you!”

An undetectable mineral vein?

Lorne looked at the notification on the system interface and was stunned.

This was the first time he had detected an ore vein of such quality.

“Look again…”

Sensing something, Lorne quickly commanded his pets to spread out and move forward.

…

Ding!

“Congratulations on discovering an undetectable [Unknown Mine], the coordinates have been recorded for you!”

“Congratulations on discovering an undetectable [Unknown Mine], the coordinates have been recorded for you!”

“Congratulations on discovering an undetectable [Unknown Mine], the coordinates have been recorded for you!”

Ding!

[Treasure Seeking] continued to flash. It indicated that it had discovered special mineral veins one after another, and every once in a while, a notification would appear.

Wasn’t such veins too rich?

Moreover, after entering this area, the [Treasure Seeking] talent could not detect what the mineral veins were.

“Looks like I’m really close to the Cold Desolate Dragon City this time.”

Lorne’s sleepiness vanished. He gathered himself and quickly headed in the direction he had planned.

After crossing a huge mountain range, the surrounding monsters became more and more concentrated. There were often hundreds of them, and their levels were terrifyingly high.

Due to the high level of the monster, there was no way for Lorne to resist it. The weak him could only rely on the reconnaissance of the Long Tongue Bat to slowly advance.

Before this, the [Angel’s Wings] equipment had evolved, and his overall attributes had also been greatly enhanced. Coupled with the invisibility effect of the Ghost Shadow Necklace and the help of his pets, he had barely survived in this area.

Just like that, he spent more than two hours running out of the region covered by the high-level monsters.

It was no wonder that the players of the Dark Guild could not find the location of Cold Desolate Dragon City.

If they came to this place, unless a million troops attacked this defense line together, it was impossible to reach this area safely.

Lorne continued forward, heading up the mountain range, hoping to obtain a map of the area on the mountain.

From the map, he had arrived near a circular mountain range, which was very similar to the huge extinct volcano that Walter had mentioned.

However, he was not sure if that area was the extinct volcano or the situation around it.

According to the information provided by Walter, Cold Desolate Dragon City was near the extinct volcano.

This information was very accurate.

But the problem was that as a dragon, the vicinity he spoke of might not be what humans thought.

That might be a long distance.

Therefore, considering that his mission was about to end, Lorne had to figure out the direction before continuing forward.

Just like that, he walked up the towering mountain and arrived at a cliff.

The moment he stood there, Lorne’s eyes widened as he stared at the scene below.
