Due to severe dehydration, Jekyll's condition has been extremely bad. If he does not receive treatment, he is likely to be unable to survive tonight.
The giant blade-toothed tiger opened the way in front. When Lei Zhentian and his group took half a night to arrive at the Black Forest, it was already midnight.
Above everyone's heads, bloated black clouds slowly moved across the sky, as if they were a group of hunched old women, bending their backs and carrying their waists, struggling to move from the front of the moon step by step, trying to completely cover the moon.
Walking in the Black Forest, with half a foot thick of flesh and blood, Bellinger, Jacks and a group of teenagers, every step he stepped on, his feet seemed to be trapped in the deep mud. This sounded so hard that his whole body felt a little soft and numb.
Occasionally, the faint moonlight that was sprinkled from the gaps in the clouds, and with this insignificant light, Jacks looked at his feet carefully.
When he saw a large pile of flesh and blood, and the heads of the evil dragon man with his eyes raised and separated from his neck, he felt his whole body tremble. When he thought of the legend about the wetland swamp in his mind, he was so scared that he was dizzy, and his heart was frightened, just like the road under his feet, which was the way to hell.
Quickly cross the Black Forest and come to the snow-covered core area. Lei Zhentian deliberately bypassed the Dragon Pond, avoided the evil dragon Cecily, and came to the feet of the "City of Glory and Faith".
When the heavy steel city gate slowly pushed open to both sides, four barracks trainers led twelve distinctly-clad Yongquan guards, arranged on both sides outside the city gate.
Looking at such a fantasy and magnificent building and the elite guards with distinctive armor made the thirteen tribes' teenagers, I don't know if they thought they had arrived in hell or heaven.
Living in a primitive tribal society, they have never seen such a magnificent white city. I'm afraid they have never even heard of it.
Standing under the city of "City of Glory and Faith", looking up at the entire building, the most attractive thing is undoubtedly the white tree standing on the top of the mountain.
It is like a mirror, the round moonlight reflected at its feet, like a small moon, reflecting in the sky with the moon breaking through the clouds.
Because he was worried about Jekyll's injury, when Lei Zhentian was about to step into the city gate, he realized something was wrong.
When Lao Lei turned around and saw everyone standing in front of the city gate in a daze, shrinking timidly, staring at the silent guards of Yongquan, and not daring to take a step arbitrarily, he remembered that he seemed to be missing something.
"I'm too anxious and have arrived at the territory, so I don't have to worry about these few seconds. With the existence of the Holy Spring, Jekyll shouldn't have any major problems. And some things must be explained here."
After thinking about it in his heart, Lei Zhentian quickly sorted out his face, then solemnly glanced at everyone, and said seriously, "As long as you step into this city gate, you will no longer belong to the Hyena Tribe, no longer a Hyena Infantry, no longer a Wasteland Hunter."
Looking at the confused eyes of everyone, Lei Zhentian's voice became more powerful, "As long as you step into this city gate, you will be the first people of the 'City of Glory and Faith'. From today on, this is your faith and your source of glory. The word I want to say is not actually easy. We call it - home!"
"A person who is willing to step into this city gate will not be allowed to call me my name from now on, nor will he call me the leader anymore. He just needs to call me... Governor!"
After thinking about it over and over again, Lei Zhentian temporarily defined his identity as a governor-general identity similar to the consul.
Hearing the four words "Governor General", the Spartan Barracks training officer and twelve guards of Yongquan were astonished as if they were conditioned, and immediately chose to kneel on one knee.
Influenced by the sixteen NPCs, except for the two or three people who were injured with difficulty in mobility, the other tribes made the same moves in a daze. After all, they didn't know what the four words "Governor General" meant.
Lei Zhentian showed his surging eyes. He was very satisfied with everyone's choice. As the saying goes, there is no order without rules.
The fortress should not be left without a master for a day. It has been determined from now on its position of governor and leadership. Although it seems a little embarrassing, it is definitely a meaningful thing. It will have great benefits for the future development of the territory.

Walk into the city gate of the "City of Glory and Faith" and follow the arch of the spiraling stairs and go up. In the center of the square close to the top palace, there are three water columns of sky. There are three fountains, one large, and on both sides are two relatively small fountains. The large fountains are coming from the bottom of the square to the top, and the water columns spray out like clusters of huge fireworks.
The water columns on both sides look much smaller, but the construction of the juvenile spring is much more spacious. A large number of white bubbles appear in the boiling spring water, constantly rising upwards.
Unfortunately, Yongquan's designer Lei Zhentian didn't care about appreciating his own masterpiece at this moment.
Unlocked Jekyll from the back of the saber-toothed tiger, and with the support of two or three injured teenagers, they were soaked together in the boiling and warm spring water. The storm of mist quickly rose and quickly wrapped them in it.
Whether the Holy Spring Water has a magical effect of healing the body is basically impossible to tell with the naked eye. Lei Zhentian’s heart is not sure. He can only treat the dead horse as a living horse.
"Let's sleep in the square today!"
In addition to ordering everyone to stay overnight in the square, Lei Zhentian always pays attention to the movements of the few people in the spring.
In addition, Lao Lei also had a more concise attitude. He ordered Yongquan to guard the city gate below to be responsible for the guard. After all, although this fortress city is large in scale, except for this limited dozens of people, there was an empty and desolate scene everywhere.
The wetland swamp was originally covered by haze, but due to the existence of the holy tree of faith, it forced a thick cloud and fog to split, like a wide irregular belt, which divided the clear sky into two halves.
Over the "City of Glory and Faith", the moon poured down bright light through the gaps of clouds. The white clouds moved past and gradually disappeared in the distance. Compared with the dark and dull sky of the black forest and wetland swamp, half of the sky was clear and the moon seemed particularly bright.
The carvings are carved with white stones, because the presence of Yongquan, the temperature in the square is not cold.
On such a night, the snowflakes that had stopped flying like cotton wool. A heavy sense of fatigue came, and Lei Zhentian gradually closed his eyes. He was really tired for more than ten days, and it was not until now that he had a rare feeling of relaxation.
As for the four Spartan barrack training officers, as well as the giant-blade-toothed tiger, they were guarding the surroundings of Lei Zhentian without saying a word, and always paying attention to any slight movement around them.
