Chapter 172: Stop, Don't Run
To create magic equipment, of course, you can't use people, you must use the corresponding magic materials. Therefore, Ji Ya not only needs the help of the heroes, but also the alchemy materials. Therefore, Zuo Zhe still needs to collect alchemy materials. I knew that I still needed these magic materials, and when I looted Gold Town and Hongye City before, I shouldn't have stared at gold.
However, Zuo Zhe currently has a large number of valuables such as silver and jewelry that cannot be used, and he can buy items even without robbing them. In the previous time, Zuo Zhe asked the watchers to go deep into the hinterland of the Hegemony Kingdom, in addition to planting nails one by one inside the Hegemony Kingdom, he also had the idea of exchanging the non-gold wealth on hand for daily necessities, spell casting materials and other items. And it just so happens that if you want to use the group teleportation skill to teleport to the undead king city underground, the ** division needs a lot of spell casting materials. Relying on Zuo Zhe and others to collect these spell materials alone is not only time-consuming, but also may not be able to collect them all, and the better way is undoubtedly to buy them.
Therefore, Zuo Zhe is ready to go to the hinterland of the hegemony kingdom. Considering the image problem, the people who followed the trip on the bright side this time were set as ** division, paladin, watchman and Ji Ya. Of course, both the watchman and Ji Ya had to wear a cloak and a mask. Although the law of "red face and trouble" is not correct, it is not completely unreasonable. Whether it is the watchman or Ji Ya, if he sees the words with his true face, it will have the effect of unforgettable and even lingering on passers-by. Then, it's time for the gentlemen or aristocratic slave owners to come up and tease and even take away the beautiful women.
Although Zuo Zhe is not afraid of these troubles, he also doesn't want to cause such troubles, after all, time is limited, and it is important to do the right thing.
After the group teleported, the ** division took Zuo Zhe and others to appear in a relatively remote location outside the city of Baye, the king capital of the hegemony kingdom, but it was not too far from the city. With the perspective of the prophet Thrall and the owl of the priestess of the moon, Zuo Zhe and his party quickly determined their goal, prepared in the woods, and waited for the prey to be delivered.
Baye City, the royal capital of the Baye Kingdom, is a city built between mountains, surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing water on one side, and its defense can be called impregnable. Historically, no matter what the name of the city is, it has the same name, "Royal Capital". Well, except for internal rebellions, or internal and external alliances, this city has never been conquered from the outside by a simple army!
Therefore, at this time, the defenders of Overlord City were not worried about a simple invasion by foreign enemies, but only worried about internal rebellion and internal and external cooperation. And it is precisely based on such concerns that the city gate inventory of Baye City is very strict, even to the point of being strict. And within a few hundred meters inside and outside the city gate, it belongs to the area where absolute (jìn) stoppers stay. If someone stays in the area, they will be questioned and even arrested by soldiers. In fact, only by entering the first layer of the Urn City in the Tyrant City could the residents stop their rapid journey. In the first layer of the Tyrant City, there are also walls between the different areas, restricting the people of different sub-cities to their respective streets and alleys, and once it is necessary to reach a time such as wartime, the Tyrant City will be under full martial law. At that time, people in different streets and alleys will not be allowed to go out. In the passage between different streets and alleys, there will be soldiers patrolling back and forth frequently, and flying pets in the air will also shoulder the responsibility of air patrol.
At this moment, although the Hegemony King City has not entered a state of war, the inspection at the city gate has also been strengthened a lot. The previous invasion of Hongye City (qíng) taught Zuo Zhe a lesson, that is, teleportation and group teleportation skills can also be detected. Unless you can erase the spatial fluctuations during teleportation and group teleportation, you should not teleport into the city. Well, except for the watchmen. After all, the watchman can teleport continuously, and even if the other party finds out, they can't help it.
Although Zuo Zhe has repeatedly stated that he doesn't want to let himself become a rat on the street, he doesn't want to provoke too much revenge
But!
But!!
But ah!!
The Terran peasants felt a lot of gold in the city! Moreover, the difference between the city and the city was that there was not only one place where the gold was distributed in the city, but more than ten!
Nima, the gold reserves in Baye City are even more than the gold mines! Sure enough, robbery is the fastest way to get money!
Yang sighed, Zuo Zhe mourned in silence for the injustice of this world, why can't the commoners even wear open crotch pants, but the nobles live a rotten life of drunkenness? Rotten, rotten, such a rotten dynasty must be overthrown!
"Obviously, I just want to rob, but I have to find such a high-sounding reason for myself, hypocrisy!" said a scolding, Ji Ya's pretty face under the wide hood was very disdainful.
Looking at the city wall with a height of more than 20 meters and made of huge stones from a distance, Zuo Zhe suddenly wanted to ask a question, such a high city wall and such a closed environment, the air in the city must be very dirty, right?
Touching the stubble on his chin, Zuo Zhe wondered if if it would cause something like a plague (qíng) if germs were released from it. If Zuo Zhe were to attack the city, Zuo Zhe would poison the groundwater. So, such a city may seem impregnable, but in fact there are many problems. Moreover, what is the disposal of every domestic waste produced by the residents of the city? Even if you just send troops to besiege this city, this city that cannot sustain itself will not last long, right?
The shared vision he received from the Prophet Thrall led him to discover one thing, and that was that all of the above problems had been solved. Although the urban sanitation of the Baye King City is not excellent, it is at least not bad, not only is there no ancient city that is full of feces (qíng), but there will also be no manure pits at the door of each house. Moreover, to Zuo Zhe's surprise, the height of the buildings in the city of the Tyrant King is generally more than three floors! You must know that the higher the height of the building, the more people live in it, and the more garbage will be produced per (rì), which will have a heavier burden on the city's logistical support. And this hegemonic city has only three or two gates facing the moat! Among them, the larger gate in the middle is only open to the nobles and other privileged classes.
"It's really not bad, it seems that there are still a lot of secrets in the Hegemony City!" According to normal judgment, such results must be related to supernatural energy such as magic and fighting spirit. Moreover, there must be a dungeon of varying size beneath the surface of this castle. Well, that's the conclusion given by Yimin, because there are quite a few gold distribution points deep underground.
Viscount Sturt's territory is near the city of the Overlord King, and Viscount Sturt is a loyal supporter of the royal family. Therefore, Viscount Sturt directly placed his family in the royal city, and he even joined the royal family's descendant troops. Rise up, Viscount Sturt still has some royal bloodline, (nǎi) (nǎi) is a member of the side branch of the royal family. The night before, the Grand Duke actually betrayed the kingdom! Although the royal mage group attacked with all their strength and killed the Grand Duke before the Grand Duke withdrew to the northern territory, the Grand Duke's son Bacon Riel brutally attacked and killed the Marquis of Red Fox, taking advantage of the chaos to capture Hongye City in the north!
In order to defend the dignity and territorial integrity of the kingdom, the royal family issued a conscription order, requiring the nobles in the country to send troops if they had soldiers, and those who did not have soldiers to pay for them, and follow the royal family's victorious army to conquer the traitors in the north.
(shēn) is a die-hard fan of the royal family, and Viscount Sturt immediately responded to the call and mobilized all his private soldiers, leaving only the militia to guard the territory. However, it was not enough to be just Viscount Sturt, who was ordered to go to the territories of the other nobles to supervise and urge the other nobles to speed up their actions, and to assemble on the south bank of the Pilian River within 5 days.
And now, Viscount Sturt has returned to the Tyrant King City, reporting the results of these two works to his superiors, and incidentally reporting the negative response of some nobles.
More than ten horsemen roared from afar, and it would not take long to pour into Chengzheng However, when they turned a forest at the foot of a mountain and were about to see the tall walls of the Overlord King City in the distance, the cavalry led by Viscount Sturt found a middle-aged man with a haggard face and an extremely tired face at the edge of the woods!
And the first time Viscount Sturt saw this nobleman, Viscount Sturt and his personal guards jumped in their hearts. Because, this person Viscount Sturt recognizes, and he is very familiar with it! This person is the city lord of Hongye City in the north, the Marquis of Red Fox!
It seems that he didn't expect to meet an acquaintance, and the Marquis of Red Fox, who was hesitating and pacing in a circle in place, suddenly changed his complexion, and immediately fled in a panic towards the woods behind (shēn)!
"Chase!" Seeing the Marquis of Red Fox fleeing, Viscount Sturt, who was still suspicious in his heart, immediately rode his horse and chased in the direction of Marquis Red Fox's escape! Seeing the Viscount riding in pursuit, Viscount Sturt's subordinates also immediately chased into the woods! After all, the other party had started to run, so did he still sit outside the woods and watch the other party escape? As for the bow (shè) arrow, didn't you see the luxurious clothes worn by the other party (shēn)?
The woods here are not large, and they are near the royal capital, so Viscount Sturt, who is a third-order fighter, is not worried about being ambushed at all. As a result, Viscount Sturt fell into Zuo Zhe's preset circle (tào) without the slightest defense, and the "Marquis of Red Fox" who turned around and ran away into the woods was disguised by Zuo Zhe with Transfiguration Fu. Well, the body of the Marquis of Red Fox is placed in the space ring, and it is no problem to disguise it, and even the accessories on Zuo Zhe (shēn) are all "original"! In order to play more likely, Zuo Zhe also specially learned from Ji Ya! I want to ask Zuo Zhe why he wants to learn acting from Ji Ya? Because the more beautiful a woman is, the better she is at acting!
"Stop, don't run!"
