Over the White Hoof Harbor, a dragon-finned whale over 100 meters in size cruised past. The air ripples from the surrounding area made the place look like a world under the sea.
In fact, this is the defensive formation of White Hoof Port. After it is activated, the sea people within White Hoof Port can swim quickly in the air as if they were in the sea.
Because of this, the scene in White Hoof Harbor is very spectacular at this moment. The entire ten legions of the sea clan, or standing on the ground, will float at high places, surrounding the central building. The sunlight reflected in the sky is reflected in the liquid-like air.
In the middle, the reflected waves sparkle.
Even though there are a large number of spells engraved in this central building, under such intensive attacks and the indiscriminate bombardment of war weapons, relatively vulnerable parts such as windows have been breached.
The central building became leaky from all sides, which allowed all kinds of surrounding sea tribes to rush into it and then engage in a melee with a big boss-level orc tribe within the limited terrain. The results can be imagined.
The disadvantage of the Sea Tribe did not last long. Under the human sea tactic, even the leader's team had a boss-level strength per person. They could not withstand it at this moment and could only retreat layer by layer. They had already retreated to the underground level.
The stairs leading to the underground floor were easy to capture, but when the Hai tribe rushed to the corridor, they were taught by the centaurs and horses who had enough spiral arrows. Under the three-meter-long spiral arrows with a full metal structure, the Hai tribe
As many sea tribesmen charged as they did, they were shot and exploded. Not only that, the solar flames attached to the spiral arrows burned the sea tribesmen who were shot to ashes on the spot.
At this moment, in the temporary command post in the front area of White Hoof Port, the leader of the Sea Tribe, Penello, listened to the report of his subordinates with an ugly expression. He had previously left the central building through the space artifact and arrived at the "Ancestral Lighthouse". As soon as he arrived there,
Using the teleportation array over there, we returned to the outer area of "White Hoof Port" and stabilized the various marine legions stationed in "White Hoof Port" as quickly as possible.
But even so, the leader of the Sea Tribe, Perniello, still felt like he had a lump in his throat, because what he ordered to destroy at this moment was the central building of White Hoof Port, which was also the center of all magic techniques in the city.
In other words, once the foundation core of the central building is destroyed, the entire White Hoof Port, whether it is the city wall or the magic under the sea, will be ineffective. Once the orc army attacks during this period, White Hoof Port will be completely destroyed.
Flat wilderness, almost indistinguishable.
As a result, although the central building has been bombarded with holes, the leader of the Sea Tribe, Penello, did not dare to continue to order the attack. The magic center of White Hoof Port is in the treasure house on the lowest floor of the central building.
Nero was not sure whether any of those savage beasts could recognize this thing. Once the magic center was recognized, it would be bad.
Several people in the room were all staring out the window. Through the glass window, they looked at the central building that was under siege. From time to time, explosions came from inside. At this moment, the sensory jellyfish floated in front of it.
, means someone is in contact.
After the leader of the sea tribe, Perniello, awakened the jellyfish, a figure wearing dark golden scales and a head of gray hair like a snake was reflected by the sensing jellyfish. Due to the long distance, the image was not clear.
Seeing the figure on the throne, Penello, the leader of the Sea Clan, immediately knelt down on one knee and lowered his head. The others even knelt on the ground, because the person opposite him was the Sea King, the supreme ruler of the Sea Clan.
"Penello, White Hoof Port has been lost?"
Neptune's tone was calm, and he seemed to have no intention of blaming or punishing.
"Not yet...lost."
After saying this, the leader of the sea clan, Penello, lowered his head, obviously feeling a little ashamed.
"So, the enemy hasn't penetrated the high wall yet?"
"The enemy is being trapped in the underground treasure house."
After saying this, the leader of the sea clan, Penello, lowered his forehead to the ground. He wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
"That is to say, the enemy made a surprise attack into the treasure house?"
The opposite Sea King was surprised, but from the beginning to now, the King of the Sea Clan has not blamed the Sea Clan leader Penero. The other party has guarded White Hoof Port for many years, and this place is within the scope of the main battlefield, which should be the sea.
The Sea Clan and the Beast Clan are competing for land. Seventy percent of the reason why the Sea Clan has occupied it for so many years is due to the personal ability of Penero, the leader of the Sea Clan.
"yes."
The leader of the Sea Tribe, Perniello, gritted his teeth and admitted that he did not defend himself by saying that the enemy came in with the eldest son of Yuanlong. He did not even mention that the enemy was a super elite team composed of hundreds of orcs.
After finishing the communication with the Sea King, the leader of the Sea Tribe, Penello, sat at the table with a gloomy expression. In his opinion, it didn't matter whether he lost face this time, but the magic center of White Hoof Port must not be destroyed.
Not to mention the high cost of that thing, once the various buildings in White Hoof Harbor lose the blessing of magic, they will be as fragile as dead wood under the attack of the orcs.
"Sir, the beast race has never been good at driving spells, so my subordinates think that those savage beasts don't know the center of the spell at all. How can they recognize something they have never seen before?"
The dwarf adjutant spoke, and he naturally guessed the worries of the sea clan leader Penello, but as soon as the dwarf adjutant finished speaking, many buildings in White Hoof Harbor became a bit dim, especially the several hundred meters high alloy city wall, which had been lost.
That feeling of indestructibility.
This made several sea tribes present think that the magic center in the treasure house was destroyed. The sea tribe leader Penello looked even more ugly, but it also helped him make up his mind. Since the magic in White Hoof Port was destroyed,
Then we must keep this elite team of beasts here forever.
Just as the leader of the Sea Tribe, Perniello, was about to give the order, a Sea Lizard Tribe herald ran over quickly and reported: "Sir Peniello, the enemy has closed our magic center, causing more than half of the people in White Hoof Port to be destroyed.
The technique has stalled."
Hearing this, the leader of the Sea Clan, Penello, felt his heart skip a beat. This time, among the beast tribe, there were not only people who knew the technique, but could even turn off the center of the technique.
After a while, Penello received news that the enemy lord who led the orcs to attack here wanted to talk to him.
At the same time, on the fifth floor of the underground treasure house, the place was slightly dark. Su Xiao poured the last bottle of inhibitor onto the technique center, which further silenced the technique center and only weak fluorescence could be revealed.
Su Xiao picked up the air detection device nearby and found that the Hai Clan had not injected poisonous gas into this place, so he took off the gas mask on his face. Naturally, he had no intention of negotiating with the Hai Clan, but he would not continue to deal with the Hai Clan here.
The clan is at odds with each other.
The reason is that the [Initial Mark (Large Fragment)] he just obtained has been activated, and it will take 40 minutes for this thing to quiet down, obtain ownership rights, and be able to store it in the storage space.
Under normal circumstances, we are now having a big fight with the ruthless brother, Demon Scythe Tyride, Thunder God Egg, the four ranger brothers and others. In this battle, there is actually no one of our own to talk about, because in the Void
In the tree's notarization, there is only one winner, and that is the person with the most "Initial Mark" fragments.
However, one thing is that as long as you obtain the "Initial Mark" fragment, no matter how small it is, you can avoid the penalties for the corresponding mission.
Su Xiao estimated that in a one-on-one duel, there is a high probability that she would not be a match for the ruthless brother and the Demon Scythe Tyride. Both of them have reached the ultimate limit of the ninth level. The reason why they did not advance towards the "extremely powerful" should be
I am accumulating, or waiting for some kind of opportunity.
Under such circumstances, the ten marine legions surrounding it are the best defense. At present, both the ruthless brother and the Demon Sickle Tyride and others have actually arrived in the area around White Hoof Port. After seeing
After the sea tribe's army surrounded this place, all the contenders suddenly were no longer interested in this "initial mark" fragment.
Therefore, Su Xiao never thought about negotiating with the leader of the Sea Clan here, nor did he care that the Sea Clan blocked the space in this area. He checked the progress of obtaining the mark:
[Currently holding initial mark: 5.1%.]
It is equivalent to getting one-twentieth of the initial mark, which is quite a lot. If you can get more than 50% of the initial mark, even if you get 50.01%, as long as you don't get ripped off, you will win.
The notarization rule of the Void Tree this time is that at the moment when the progress of this world ends, the person who holds the most initial marks will immediately obtain all the remaining mark fragments.
Su Xiao took out a soul crystal (complete) and took a bite with a click. All she could say was that even if she had eaten all kinds of 'delicacies' with soul characteristics, classics never go out of style, and soul crystals are this classic.
While Su Xiao was savoring the taste of soul, Ergoin hurried over and saw Su Xiao throwing the last piece of soul crystal into his mouth. Even with Ergoin's courage, he couldn't help but stop because he felt,
Every time their lord eats souls, his eyes always have an inexplicable penetrating feeling.
"explain."
"Sir, the leader of the Sea Tribe, Penello, sent an envoy to negotiate with us, and the envoy claimed to know you."
"Let him in."
"yes."
Ergoin turned and walked up the stairs, and after a while, he brought back a sea dwarf.
When Su Xiao saw this Sea Tribe dwarf, he felt a little familiar. After recalling it, he remembered that it was the Sea Tribe adjutant he had let go before.
"This lord...my lord, instead of both of us losing, there is actually another way to solve the current situation,"
The dwarf adjutant spoke, maintaining respect and not losing the dignity of the Hai Clan side.
"2000 Soul Stones."
"What?"
The dwarf adjutant didn't react for a moment. The originally planned deal was for the surrounding sea legions to retreat and allow the lord team to leave. However, in exchange, the lord team was not allowed to destroy the magic center before leaving.
As a result, before the dwarf adjutant could tell the negotiation terms, Su Xiao had already taken the lead in making an offer.
The dwarf adjutant also wanted to try to negotiate, but found that the surrounding orcs began to look at him unkindly, so he could only retreat wisely and reported Su Xiao's conditions to the leader of the sea tribe, Penello.
Less than ten minutes later, the dwarf adjutant once again walked into the underground treasure house. This time he brought with him a bargaining chip. It was impossible for the Sea Tribe to pay the soul stone, but other materials could be discussed.
Seeing this situation, Su Xiao knew that the opponent this time was more difficult to deal with, so he simply asked Baha to negotiate with the dwarf adjutant. Penello, the leader of the sea tribe who was guarding this place, had a good reputation. It would be difficult to scheme against this guy.
Su Xiao checked the existing reputation value and found that the reputation value had become 1295 points, which meant that temporarily capturing the central building allowed him to gain more than 13,000 reputation points.
Finally no longer losing reputation, Su Xiao opened the task list, and sure enough, the first camp task changed, showing that he could obtain the fief in a compromise way, but he had to return to the main city, Eternal Ring City first.
The core purpose of Su Xiao's formation of the Lord Team is to obtain the fief, and after obtaining the fief, use the Lord Team to deal with the restless city lords on the fief. Now that the initial goal has been achieved, there is no need to continue taking risks on the main battlefield.
[Tip: The notarization time limit has expired, and no contractor has come here to compete for the initial mark (fragment). You have obtained the right to hold this initial mark (fragment). 】
After receiving this prompt, Su Xiao stood up from his seat and released the Blade Demon at the same time. A crystal war hammer gathered in the hands of the Blade Demon.
Arriving at the inner side of the treasure house, the ground here was already covered with space array diagrams. Su Xiao stood on the teleportation array, and a large black semi-fluid poured in. Then Ergoin, Harvey and other orcs rushed into this black semi-fluid.
within the fluid.
After the last Centaur was submerged, Su Xiao controlled the Blade Demonic Spirit to smash the center of the spell. From the beginning, he had no intention of negotiating with the Sea Clan. In other words, the Sea Clan had similar thoughts and was delaying.
Time is just delaying time to wait for the most elite assassination team to arrive.
The moment the space array under his feet was activated, Su Xiao discovered that a translucent film enveloped the surrounding area. This was obviously a space blockade deployed by the enemy.
At the same time, outside the central treasure house, a space tower emitted a white light, indicating that it had begun to block transmission.
When Penello, the leader of the Sea Clan in the temporary command post, saw this scene, the murderous intent in his eyes became even colder. He knew that the center of the spell had been destroyed at this moment. Even if he had not received the report from his subordinates, he could
Be sure of this.
"Sir Penello, with this space, no one can escape using space magic, please don't worry."
An old man from the sea clan with an octopus beard spoke. He was the magician responsible for the space seal in White Hoof Harbor, but the octopus magician had just finished speaking.
Boom!
There was a muffled sound, and the space tower that had been blocking space transmission just now exploded, sending debris flying all over the sky, as if the space tower had been hit by a train.
The leader of the sea clan, Penello, the dwarf adjutant, Black Omen, and the banshee Dita all looked at the octopus magician. The octopus magician's beard twisted and looked at the broken space tower in shock.
…
The space flipped, twisted, stretched, and finally spiraled around, throwing Yuanlong's eldest son, Ergoin and others out. This place was a lush valley, with waterfalls falling and water vapor rising. Baha had set up a node here in advance,
Let everyone be teleported here.
As soon as he was thrown out of the space vortex, the eldest son of Yuanlong returned to the form of Yuanlong. He staggered a few steps as if he was drunk, and then a dragon wing held the towering rock wall like a hand, and with a "wow" sound, it turned away yesterday's body.
After vomiting out his dinner, the anger in his erect eyes no longer showed, but he began to feel confused.
A captain of the Centaur clan tried to stand up from the ground. He had never been like this in his life. He was lying on the ground with his legs spread wide. Sitting not far away, Vicious Teeth put two fingers into his mouth.
After a while, a broken tooth was dug out.
Originally, Su Xiao planned to use the teleportation array to return to Iron Castle City again, but at the unanimous request of Ergoin, Harvey, Viper, Vicious Tooth and others, Su Xiao left them here on standby while he took Bubo Wang with him.
, Amu, Baha returned to Iron Castle City.
Just after the space transfer ended, Su Xiao arrived at the temporary station, driven by Bu Bu Wang. As soon as the vehicle left the courtyard, the towering steel chimney of Iron Castle City came into view first. The faint filthy smell in the air was unique to Iron Castle City.
the smell.
Driving to the back city area, Su Xiao arrived at the supply office. When he pushed open the door of the material exchange room, he was choked by the oncoming smell and his vision went dark. After holding the door frame with one hand for 0.5 seconds, the darkness in his vision faded away.
.
The sound of cooking came, and Caesar was cooking something in a big iron pot on the stove. When he saw Su Xiao coming, Caesar looked surprised and stepped forward and said: "My dear friend, you came just in time, watch what I'm cooking."
How about the recovery potion?"
"..."
Su Xiao didn't speak. He kept a few meters away and glanced at the boiling and rolling brown viscous liquid in the iron pot. He didn't comment, or in other words, with his "rudimentary" level of pharmacy, he really couldn't see through the potion.
Element.
It seems that the taste of this potion is not very good. After opening the window, Caesar took the iron pot off the stove, cooled the potion and put it in a potion bottle. He picked up a bottle and handed it to Su Xiao, saying: "Look
Is there anything that needs improvement?”
"..."
Su Xiao took the potion and found that it was indeed a recovery potion, but it had rather strange properties:
【Thick Potion】
Origin: Nicholas Caesar.
Quality: white ~ holy spirit level.
Type: Restoration Potion/Debuff Potion/Liquid of unknown composition.
Drinking effect: After drinking, there is a 33.33% chance of vomiting, a 33.33% chance of fainting, and a 33.33% chance of immediately recovering 95% of maximum health.
Side effects: After using this medicine to restore health, there is a certain probability of causing severe diarrhea, or soul chills and other adverse reactions.
Rating: 1~1000 points.
Introduction: To be determined.
Price: TBD.
…
Su Xiao still didn't understand the general ingredients of the potion and asked Caesar. Caesar hesitated for a long time and didn't say anything. It was obvious that he was improvising and created this potion. Even he himself didn't know the formula.
This is in line with Caesar's style of preparing potions. Others put whatever the recipe says, but Caesar puts whatever he has.
Su Xiao came to the wooden counter, and Caesar came to the counter. The quartermaster's authority was activated, and the camp store was activated at the same time.
Su Xiao first submitted the [Faction Mission·Capture/Surprise Attack on White Hoof Port] and received a total of 6850 reputation points. Although he had previously occupied the central building of White Hoof Port, the damage to the buildings of White Hoof Port was not great. These 6850 points,
Basically, they are all rewards corresponding to destroying the magic center.
There are actually thousands of points left in the follow-up, but it is necessary to destroy those buildings where the spell has failed. Under the circumstances at that time, there was obviously no such opportunity. Su Xiao opened the camp store and the list appeared in front of him.
[Existing reputation value: 8345 points.]
1. Soul crystal core.
Stock quantity: 2190 pieces (replenished from time to time).
Su Xiao flipped through [Soul Crystals] and found that out of the 22 [Soul Crystals] in stock, there were only 14 left. Lord-level reputation was in front, and it turned out that they couldn't stop the ruthless brother and the priest for too long.
【You have paid 7800 reputation points.】
[You get soul crystals x 6.]
With only over 500 reputation points left, Su Xiao was not in a hurry to exchange it for soul crystal cores. Once he had a fiefdom, the way to gain camp reputation every day would be stable.
Even if the situation of the fiefdom is relatively bad, as the lord of a fiefdom, you can still get 100 to 3000 reputation points every day, and send legions to the main battlefield. Each legion can bring Su Xiao 300 reputation points per day.
For a lord with up to five orc legions, he can steadily earn 1,500 reputation points every day. This does not include the additional reputation gain when his legions perform meritoriously on the main battlefield.
"How are the preparations going?"
Su Xiao closed the camp store. When he heard this, Caesar across from him smiled particularly treacherously and said, "I'm going to leave this afternoon."
Caesar plans to go to the Sea Tribe this afternoon and find a way to become the quartermaster of the Sea Tribe camp.
Su Xiao took out part of the alloy seal box obtained at the White Hoof Port Material Depot and asked Caesar to break the secret space pattern on it. Caesar did not agree to a 50-50 split, but chose not to take any of it. It was not that Caesar stopped being greedy, but that
It was because he wanted to get a share of the pie after Su Xiao obtained the fiefdom. Of course, Su Xiao had no reason to refuse.
After handling all kinds of trivial matters, it was almost one o'clock in the afternoon. Su Xiao went to the main city, Yonghuan City, through the space tower.
The fog of space dissipates around the surroundings, and the scent of grass and trees floats into the nose, making people feel comfortable. Compared with the dirty air in Iron Castle City, Yonghuan City is much better, but compared to some remote cities, it is still not as good as it is.
After getting on the bus, the sizzling sound of frying and a slightly familiar aroma wafted over. Su Xiao heard the sound and looked around. At the kitchen counter in front of the bus, a snack similar to fried meatballs was being cooked. This was the main thing.
It is a famous snack in the city. After a while, Su Xiao, Bu Buwang, Amu, and Baha sat in a row on the seats by the window, all holding a few strings of fried meatballs, and their chewing movements seemed to be more synchronized than last time.
When the bus stopped, Su Xiao had arrived in Sancheng District. He walked to Commander-in-Chief Kane's residence. When he arrived at the main entrance of the residence, he found that there were several times more guards on both sides of the main entrance than the last time he came.
Su Xiao was walking on the corridor of the homestead, when a woman wearing a black gauze skirt, as if her whole body was covered with black mist, came towards her. Her beautiful face made it difficult for people to look away, but Su Xiao could not look away.
The reason why I opened my sight is because this is a fortune teller, a very strong fortune teller.
The woman in the black skirt couldn't help but speed up her pace after passing by Su Xiao. For some reason, as a fortune teller, she subconsciously felt that the person she passed by was dangerous.
Su Xiao looked at the back of the black skirt who was walking away. If such a powerful fortune teller could recruit him to the fiefdom, the follow-up plan would be much smoother.
"Hmm!"
The coughing sound of Commander-in-Chief Kane was heard.
"Bai Ye, if something happens to my little daughter recently, I won't be done with you."
After speaking, Commander-in-Chief Kane opened the door and motioned for Su Xiao to come to the castle to talk.
"Looking at her age, I thought she was your granddaughter."
"Adopted daughter."
During the chat, Commander-in-Chief Kane walked into the study and motioned for Su Xiao to sit wherever he wanted. After Kane sat down, he picked up an object that looked like a pipe, stuffed some tobacco into it, sucked and puffed out the smoke, and lit it.
"I'm ready for the fiefdom matter."
Commander-in-Chief Kane took out an approval document personally approved by the Beast King from the drawer, allowing Su Xiao to directly obtain a fiefdom. The seven major families would surely come to cause trouble, which would be very detrimental to Su Xiao, Kane, and the Beast King.
But if Su Xiao assists a young lord to manage a fiefdom, the seven major families will not be able to find any problems.
Among the more than 100 lords, there is a little girl whose parents were killed and who had no choice but to inherit the fief for a short time. At this time, there is only a "loyal" housekeeper beside the little lord to assist her.
A butler alone cannot make a difference. The problem is that the butler colludes with the two city lords in the fiefdom. The three collude with each other to evade the power of the small lords and make it appear that the fiefdom is controlled by them.
Su Xiao is not worried about this situation. One of the purposes of establishing the Lord Team is to deal with the troublesome city lords in the fiefdom.
Su Xiao put away the approval document, and Commander-in-Chief Kane, who was opposite the desk, knocked on the cabinet beside him with his knuckles. After a while, a black figure walked out of the shadows and whispered in Commander-in-Chief Kane's ear.
something.
"I know, let's go down."
After taking a sip of tea to moisten his throat, Commander-in-Chief Kane said: "Those people you mentioned before are likely to go to a gem shop in Wucheng District in a few hours. Also, don't stay in Yonghuan City.
Make a big fuss."
"oh."
Su Xiao stood up and walked out of the study. After leaving the mansion, she took a bus to Wucheng District.
Three hours later, the gem shop in Wucheng District.
The store door was pushed open, and Mo Lei, who had just sold a batch of gems, was in a good mood. Standing on the street, she stretched and was thinking about what to eat tonight.
"You two, stop dragging your feet. It's so slow to sell some gems. I'm getting hungry."
As Mo Lei spoke, she looked around the surrounding shops, looking for a place for dinner tonight. Inadvertently, she saw a man sitting on a bench across the street holding today's newspaper. This made her eyes gradually become serious, and she took a step forward.
She retreated to the gem shop behind her, checked her eyes, and met the person she was most afraid of, and her mentality collapsed.
The two whirring shop doors in front of Mo Lei stabilized. Apostle Yue and Sister Hao on both sides of her, who were about to push the door open, were both puzzled by Mo Lei.
"What's wrong with you? You look like you've been robbed."
Hearing Hao Mei's words, Mo Lei pushed open the door of the shop in front of her. Apostle Yue and Hao Mei looked through the crack in the door and happened to see the man sitting on the bench across the street. Their expressions suddenly changed.
They all froze, took a small step back, and stood together with Mo Lei. The three of them looked at me, and I looked at you, and their mentality changed a lot.
