The Great World is divided into two worlds – the Great Wilderness on the ground and the Abyss underground.

The ancestors who entered the abyss in ancient times, after tens of thousands of years of development, built countless underground city-states and evolved all kinds of civilizations.

And Wuzhiyuan City is one of the largest and most populous dungeons in the known abyss!

With a population of millions and dozens of large and small subordinate dungeons and hundreds of remnant tribes, this abyss city is already equivalent to an independent underground kingdom.

The city of Wuzhiyuan is the royal city of the kingdom!

Wuzhiyuan City is also one of the first dungeons to establish contact with the surface world, and through thousands of years of communication and learning with the Great Wilderness Human Race, it has mastered extraordinary power very early and cultivated a large number of transcendental people.

This giant abyssal city is also known as the city of abyssal wizards because of the sheer number of wizards.

Many Wuzhi wizards are good at refining weapons, and generations of talented alchemists have refined all kinds of witchcraft.

The giant-like psionic golem is their masterpiece!

And these wizards and witchcraft have also become the foundation of Wuzhiyuan City.

In addition, Wuzhiyuan City also "produced" a large number of merchants, who not only organized caravans to trade in the abyss, but also ventured to the surface to travel around.

In many vassal states and cities, you can see the figure of Wuzhi merchants!

Chiki is one of them.

He was born into a small family in Wuzhiyuan City.

Zhiqi's people have been in business for generations, and he is considered the most successful.

But Zhiqi's biggest dream is not just to become a successful businessman, he wants to have a higher status in Wuzhiyuan City.

Rise to the ranks of the nobility!

The nobles are the minority who really control Wuzhi Yuan City, and the highest ranks are the lord of Wuzhi City and the lord of the wizard tower, with the title of "duke", and in descending order, they are "Hou", "Bo", "Xun" and "Shi".

Collectively known as the "Five Lords".

And these "five lords" are determined by bloodline, strength and military exploits.

Some people are born noble, they have the title of lord in their infancy, and when they grow up, they are directly promoted to earls, and then send their retainers to obtain military exploits, and the marquis is at their fingertips!

Some people are born ordinary, but have extraordinary essentia, and after cultivating and promoting to the totem warrior or the first wizard, they can be knighted - the lowest noble.

This is very similar to the Great Wilderness, except that as long as the Great Wilderness Giant becomes a sorcerer, he is considered a nobleman.

There are a lot of wizards in Wuzhiyuan City, so the difficulty of knighting is relatively high.

Zhiqi wants to become a nobleman, he has neither a gifted noble bloodline nor an extraordinary essentia.

Money can't buy a knighthood.

The only way for that branch was to seize military merits and rely on military exploits in exchange for titles.

Every decade or so, the city of Wuzhiyuan wags a large-scale war to eliminate potential threats around its sphere of influence and plunder its population and resources.

The ten-year war was the best opportunity for people like Zhiqi to gain military exploits.

Of course, he is just an ordinary person, and he does not have the ability to go into battle to kill strong enemies.

But there is a rule here - the battle exploits of the retainers can be counted on the lord!

Hearing this, Gao Jing almost understood: "Zhiqi, do you want me to become your retainer?"

If that's the case, then Gao Jing will refuse.

He had no interest in being anyone's henchman, even if he could get a powerful battle golem.

"No, no, no!"

Zhiqi hurriedly shook his head and explained, "It's a general!"

A warlord is actually a kind of retainer, but there is a big difference between him and a real retainer.

First of all, only totemic warriors and great warriors are qualified to become war generals, and secondly, war generals can be loyal to the Lord and can be hired by the Lord and have great freedom.

To put it simply, if the general feels that his master is not good, then he can pat his ass and leave, and the good bird chooses the tree to perch!

After listening to Zhiqi's explanation, Gao Jing nodded.

I feel that being a mercenary general, that's still acceptable.

But he had a question: "Zhiqi, you are not short of money, can't you invite a powerful general?"

"I'll tell you the truth. ”

Zhiqi smiled bitterly: "I have an opponent in Wuzhiyuan City, his status is higher than mine, his strength is stronger than mine, he has always been against me, I have no way to run to Blackwater City to develop." ”

"In the last ten-year war, I invited a few good generals, but they were all assassinated by him, and I think in the next ten-year war, it will be difficult for me to hire the right people. ”

This time, Gao Jing completely understood.

Zhiqi's battle puppet is obviously not given for nothing, and Gao Jing needs to fight with his life, not only to fight against Zhiqi's opponents, but also to win battle merits on the battlefield, the difficulty can be imagined!

"High view is under the foot. ”

Zhi Qi looked at Gao Jing with blazing eyes, and there was a hint of fanaticism in his eyes: "You are the most talented warrior I have ever seen, I believe that after studying in the Nilo God of War Martial Hall, you can become the most powerful warrior among our people." ”

"So, I'd like to ask you to help me make this wish come true, in addition to this battle golem..."

He stretched out his hand and pointed to the two maids next to him: "Xiao Yun and Xiao Dai are also given to you, they are still first daughters." ”

The two maids blushed faintly on their faces, and lowered their heads at the same time. Yao’e

Xiao Yun also peeked at Gao Jing.

Which girl is not pregnant with spring, although Zhiqi treats them very well, it is not bad if they are replaced by Gao Jing as the master.

Gao Jing was speechless.

He felt that Zhiqi was about to be stunned in order to be a nobleman.

After thinking about it, Gao Jing asked, "When is the next ten-year war?"

"If there are no accidents, it should be two or three years later. ”

Zhiqi replied: "We still have a lot of time to prepare, but it is possible to advance or postpone it, and it is not 100% certain. ”

"In that case..."

Gao Jing pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "I can represent you in the ten-year war, but I can't guarantee that I will be able to get enough merits for you to be knighted." ”

Gao Jing mainly felt that this war was a good opportunity for him to sharpen his face.

But he couldn't do everything he could for Zhiqi's ambitions.

In case of irresistible danger, it is necessary to protect yourself.

Gao Jing said ugly things in front of him, so as not to cause trouble in the future.

"I believe in you!"

And Zhiqi's arrogance exceeded Gao Jing's expectations, and the big fat man pushed the Void Ring on the table in front of his eyes: "Whether it succeeds or not, this battle puppet is yours!"

Gao Jing smiled.

Or took the priceless Void Ring.

Zhiqi reminded him of a character, and that was Lü Buwei in the last years of the Warring States period in the main world.

Really dare to bet big!
