"What about Nameless Mountain?"
Chen Fan looked toward Nameless Mountain. It wasn't a mountain range, but a lone mountain standing in the Jiangbei Wasteland. It wasn't even particularly tall, only a few hundred meters high.
"That one isn't." The man shook his head. "Nameless Mountain really is just an ordinary mountain."
"When formation Vein Patterns manifest, they always form mountain ranges, never a solitary mountain."
"The Eternal Night Continent is vast."
"I don't know exactly how vast, because I haven't traveled across the entire continent myself. I'm only responsible for communications and miscellaneous duties in Western Region One."
The man took a Ghosthide Map from inside his clothes and spread it across the table. "Your region, the Four Regions of Jiangbei and the two regions of Kansai, is collectively known as Western Wasteland Island."
"This is Yellow Springs Pass Canyon. See these continuous mountain ranges on either side? Those mountains are manifestations of Formation Patterns, and the canyon between them is a breach left by a shattered node. Eternal Night Hall established a defense line here."
"Originally..."
The man hesitated slightly. "Originally, the purpose of the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line was to stop the undersea strange tide from entering the Eternal Night interior through Yellow Springs Pass Canyon after we abandoned Western Wasteland Island."
"About 2,700 kilometers from Yellow Springs Mouth is the nearest Eternal Night front to us. It's called Eternal Night Western Region Black Tortoise Frontline One."
"That defense line is 108 kilometers long."
"It's also one of the defense lines the main force of the strange tide is attacking."
Although he knew Eternal Night Hall had no choice, he still found it difficult to say aloud that they planned to abandon Western Wasteland Island. Chen Fan looked at the Ghosthide Map the man had brought out.
