This world clearly harbors countless crises.
Yet it is silently protected by an invisible hand.
The dinsion war that was enough to shake the entire Endless Continent and brought an end to the era shall not be ntioned for now.
Just underground, in unknown territories and terrifying dangerous zones like the Burial Ground.
Such as the Evil God Forgetter transford by Suturing Mage Gu Lanqi in the Burial Fortress that Zong Shen encountered earlier.
There are many more such things across the continent.
These are all potential danger factors.
Once these factors fully erupt, they would act as the fuse for chaos across the continent.
The simplest example is the Burial Ground not far from Zong Shen Territory.
The entire Burial Ground has hundreds of thousands of undead.
A leftover issue from the last era after the dinsion war.
If the undead in the Burial Ground fully awaken, not only Boss Bang will suffer.
Even Lentax Giant City will be implicated.
However, the Burial Ground is suppressed by the Tower of the Dead left by the Blood-Burning Demon.
Just acquiring three Demon King's Secret Orders can control the undead within.
In tis of peace without any disturbance, those undead won't awaken.
They will remain in a state of semi-permanent sleep underground.
And within the continent, similar dangerous zones like the Burial Ground are not unique.
At this mont, Zong Shen felt that the perceived stability of the entire continent is actually very fragile.
A strong sense of crisis swelled in Zong Shen's heart.
Standing alone, he silently pondered for a while.
Evidently, the space node beneath the Desert Zone is both a crisis and an opportunity.
Unknown regions often contain unique treasures with environntal features.
Among them are so treasures that have long disappeared from the outside world.
The native races living in unknown regions are also a form of wealth.
As long as one is strong enough, they can kill them or enslave them.
After a good while, Zong Shen retrieved his thoughts.
Returning to the team resting by the roadside.
Everyone was resting in the empty ground nearby.
Patting away the ashes and dust left on the armor,
Simultaneously letting Pigsy, Sentinel Black Panther, and the warhorses begin feeding.
Replenishing their hunger level and the physical strength consud from continuous trekking.
At this speed, they should arrive at the territory around early morning.
Which is slightly earlier than the ti they anticipated when departing.
After resting for twenty to thirty minutes.
Zong Shen prepared to get on the road again.
All the Immortal Gun Cavalries also mounted their horses.
Zong Shen was about to put on his battle helt when he saw dust rising on the dirt road in the distance.
Even the ground beneath their feet was slightly trembling.
Heading from west to east, the destination should be Boss Bang.
He held his battle helt under his arm, gesturing for everyone to wait on the roadside.
Such loud noise and movent must be at least a hundred cavalry.
Soon, the dust cloud reached near Zong Shen's group.
And without stopping, charged past them on the dirt road.
All were Tier 2 Avalon Light Cavalry.
At least a squad's quantity.
The leader was a young man with brown curly hair.
He wore no full-cover battle helt, just had a face scarf to block the dust during the long trek.
His horse was draped in light armor.
Taller than general grassland horses, but inferior to Dragon Scale Warhorses and Andalusian Warhorses.
The entire cavalry unit was organized into three columns, rushing towards Boss Bang.
A Bauhinia Flower Military Banner was raised at the back of the troop.
This light cavalry's identity was already clear.
They were the forces sent by Boss Bang to support Odu Village.
The brown-haired, curly-headed leader should be Baron Bezos' eldest son, Harold.
Zong Shen could have figured out their identity with just his toe.
Seeing the other party busy rushing, seemingly not noticing them, Zong Shen put on his battle helt.
Signaled to continue moving forward.
Everyone mounted their steed and moved onto the road.
Gradually accelerating to full speed, heading towards the territory.
From the rear Light Cavalry squad, Harold glanced as they passed behind Zong Shen's group.
Only realizing after running for one or two kiloters.
Though he did not catch Zong Shen's appearance, he noticed the large wild boar under him.
Harold signaled his adjutant riding alongside to halt the entire force.
Seeing Harold's order, the adjutant took out a red flag from his waist.
Raised it above his head, softly waving it.
The rear Light Cavalry gradually decelerated from the end to the front.
Harold and the adjutant pulled at their reins.
Cavalry marching requires commands to halt.
Otherwise, blindly stopping or reducing speed at the front could easily cause a rear-end collision.
Ultimately leading to large-scale chaos.
Therefore, standard cavalry units have a set of signaling thods.
Used for commanding charges, deceleration, maneuvering, and stopping tactical commands.
Flag signaling is a relatively common one.
After all the Light Cavalry had halted.
Harold reached out to unmask his scarf, his upper face visibly darker than the lower face.
All from dust and dirt stains from high-speed trekking.
He curiously turned back for a glance.
Then took out a sheepskin scroll from his saddlebag on the side of the horse.
