The game has become a real alternate world-Chapter 744 - 426: The City in the Rift Valley

The team set off again.

This time, there were no surprises along the way; everything was very calm.

Several nights passed.

"We're almost there."

Laharu said, looking up at the giant eagle circling in the sky.

They weren't solely relying on the eagle; it seemed the eagles' calls in the sky had distinct differences.

After all, they had encountered such eagles more than once or twice on this journey.

Soon, they saw a patrol unit in the distance.

There were less than 20 people on horseback in total.

As this large group approached, they pounded their chests with their fists.

"Welcome back, brothers."

The Wolf Cavalry at the front responded as well.

As they slowly advanced, more and more scouting teams noticed them, almost every moment coming over to take a look.

However, this did not affect their pace.

"What are they doing?" Alicia asked.

Anita raised her head to look over.

Not far away, there was a group of emaciated civilians; their clothes were dirty and tattered.

They were crawling on the grass, seemingly searching for something, with some baskets and backpacks beside them.

"They're looking for something edible," Huerbei said, glancing over.

"What do you mean?" Lululuse asked casually.

"We've been fighting the rats for half a year, and many of the food production areas have been destroyed, leading to a food shortage.

So we can't let everyone eat their fill; we must first ensure the warriors are fed."

At this point, Huerbei didn't elaborate further.

It wasn't something he was proud of.

But everyone present understood what his words implied.

This large group passed by the side.

The refugees searching for food lifted their heads slightly, their eyes fixed on the vast herds of cattle and horses, unable to look away.

"If Alphonse saw this scene, he'd definitely be hopping mad," Miguel West couldn't help but say.

Kana nodded in agreement.

Ever since joining the Night Watchers, Alphonse's farming techniques had become increasingly extraordinary.

He could no longer stand seeing others endure hunger.

"Don't worry, once we clear the path, food will flow in continuously, so they won't need to go hungry anymore.

Especially since Alphonse arrived here some time ago."

Upon hearing this, Miguel West looked up, surprised: "What? I didn't know. What about the Mother Tree?"

"What? I remember you were quite against him helping care for and study your Mother Tree; isn't this perfect now?" Bobo asked.

Hearing this, Miguel West quickly said, "That has nothing to do with me; I was on the approving side, so don't pin that on me."

Nonetheless, this was indeed good news.

As they approached, large camp areas appeared, filled with tents that had a distinct prairie style.

These tents were scattered around, some rather haphazardly.

Apparently, they could retreat at any moment.

This method made it difficult for the rats to cause significant harm to the citizens of the Green Land Kingdom on such expansive grasslands.

Soon, they encountered a hill, with a narrow path in the center.

Apart from that, it was an endless plain.

There were no signs of a city.

Until they passed through the path.

The world opened up, revealing a natural wonder before them.

It was a massive chasm.

A gigantic gorge descending downward.

On the opposite cliff, they could see excavated areas where a city seemed embedded.

The entire city on the cliff extended inward beneath the grasslands.

They had to circle around the cliff wall to reach the other side of the gorge.

"Wow!"

The crowd couldn't help but gasp in amazement.

"Impressive, right? Everyone who comes here reacts this way," Huerbei said proudly.

This Cliff City could indeed be called a miracle.

As they circled the cliff, they could see not only on the opposite side but also many residents on the surrounding cliff walls.

Most common were the places where giant eagles were raised, with many eagle-like creatures flying in the gorge.

The herders with their flocks seemed to be on the upper path, making a long circuit, seemingly settling on the opposite grassland, where their cattle and sheep herded together.

Soon they reached the city.

A city embedded in the cliff.

"This city really has a Dwarf style," a Dwarf Night Watcher couldn't help but say.

Hearing this.

Kana looked at the city, recalling its background.

He didn't know much about it and rarely came here, but he knew a bit about its background.

"You could say that; this city indeed has some Dwarf connections."

Hearing Kana say this, those nearby naturally turned their heads to listen.

Obviously, Kana was about to recount some ancient history.

"The specific time is untraceable, but this city was initially built by a Dwarf Tribe.

They intended to build a magnificent Dwarf metropolis on this gorge, because they found a vein here."

This matched well with the Dwarfs' original intention of city building.

"Then why was it abandoned?" a Dwarf asked.

It must be abandoned if it was built halfway and not completed.

"It's said that the discovered vein was a mistake, merely a shallow deposit.

Before the city was completed, the vein was exhausted, and there were no more valuable deposits nearby.

At that point, continuing to build the city was meaningless, as the Dwarfs didn't seem to like such a large prairie area.

So this city with its rough outlines, though repaired for two or three decades, was abandoned."

"That's actually not long," a Dwarf interjected.

For Dwarfs, that's indeed the case.

The subsequent history was self-evident—it was just the natural history of the city.

Upon hearing this, some Wolf Cavalry looked unsettled, while others had an epiphany.

After all, they fought here; many of the Wolf Cavalry warriors grew up in city life, with many well aware of the city's past history.

This place was indeed not carved out piece by piece by their ancestors, but built upon existing contours.

However, it still resulted in such a magnificent city.
