Chapter 42, Chapter 43: Choice and Rumor

(PS: Four more, one is still before.) οΌ‰

After a small bonfire feast, a few people such as Ishanjiu and Ai Yi drank some wine, and the rest did not drink at all, after all, this is still a wilderness, and they are still strangers to each other, and it is normal for each to be wary.

However, after Ishanjiu and his guards learned that the leader of the Green Arrow Adventure Group was a second-order magician, they were much more enthusiastic than at the beginning, and they all spoke with humility, and then at night, they saw Ai using magic on a big tree, and the elves all entered the tree, and a few humans were also called in, Ishanjiu and his guard leader glanced at each other, their eyes were full of envy and jealousy.

"There are really magicians who come out to start an adventure group, I always thought it was all rumors, but it turned out to be true. Yi Shan sighed for a long time before he said.

His guard leader's name is Robert, who is a rare advanced golden rooster breed in the Eagle Clan, and Robert also smiled bitterly at this time: "And it's also a second-order magician, this is a magician of the elf clan, for the elf clan, unless it is the top 100 clans of the ten thousand clans, they are all treated as high-level magicians...... These young masters and young ladies from rich families are really incomprehensible. ”

"It's right if you don't understand, otherwise we will be the young master and miss of the rich and noble family. Iyamahisa said with a smile.

Robert shook his head slightly, but there was no doubt about it in his heart, at the previous dinner table, he also confirmed again and again that these elves are not ignorant ordinary citizens, they have indeed experienced bloody battles in the wild, which can be seen from the spirit, and at the same time, there is no blood smell of intelligent creatures, there is the blood smell of Warcraft on their bodies, so these people are really members of the adventure group, and they are also the kind of adventure group that is orderly and kind.

Compared with the ordinary Eagle Race, the eyesight of the Golden Rooster Race is not too good, but the sense of smell and the spirit vision are far more than those of the Eagle Race, so he can smell the bloody smell that ordinary people can never smell, and he can also distinguish the details, and at the same time, he is very keen on grievances, resentments, ghosts, curses, etc., this ability has allowed him to avoid many disasters for Ishanjiu in the past few decades, which is the hole card of Yishanjiu's business group.

At this time, Yi Shanjiu showed a philistine expression and said: "But I'm really lucky, I met a second-order elf magician on the way, we can't be lazy, it's best to leave some contact information after entering the alliance, I think this magician also needs some channels to buy magic herbs and the like, right? This is friendship, there is a lot of friendship, and we will be considered acquaintances of this magician in the future, if this adult can be promoted to a high-level magician, something will flow from her fingers, and it will be enough for us to be useful...... I'm not willing to sell blue salt for the rest of my life. ”

Robert also nodded slightly when he heard this, he took out his precious first-order enchanted weapon and looked at it again and again, and then said to Yi Shanjiu: "Old Yi, I have also used this enchanted weapon for almost ten years, right?

Yi Shanjiu played haha and kept changing the topic, but Robert didn't follow, pulling Yishan Jiu to keep asking, and the two gradually walked away.

In the tree camp, there were many fewer humans at once, and the entire tree camp seemed much empty, and the elves surrounded Hao, listening to Hao's analysis of this business group.

"It is indeed a very ordinary small country business group, the head of the mixed-race business group, several Eagle Clan guards, and some very ordinary mortal employees, this is a very ordinary small country business group, the annual rate of return is about two hundred and fifty spirit stones, in addition to paying the salaries of employees, the salaries of guards, weapon maintenance, and the maintenance and consumption of livestock, vehicles, etc., there is also a part of it that is counted as working capital, and the annual deposit is estimated to be only about thirty spirit stones. ”

Hao recalled various details and said: "According to this analysis and deduction, this small business group is estimated to not survive the impact of the next Ten Thousand Races War, and will go bankrupt in the third year when the Ten Thousand Races War completely breaks out, but there are some hidden things in this business group, it is estimated that it is the personal adventure of the head of this business group, but these are all small things, in short, it is safe to follow this business group into the Plant Alliance." ”

All the elves are relieved, these days, they are more and more convinced of Hao, and at the same time, they really understand why the Wan clan is so miraculous about the wise man many times, just a meal, this merchant group in front of Hao even has no secret of the bottoms, who can resist it.

Hao continued: " And although this business group is small, it is complete, has a wide range of contacts, and has a lot of contacts, especially the lower level of people are more connected, these are all good things, and then you can interact with it more, in this remaining section, and they have reached a consensus, and contact more in the future, after we enter the plant alliance, we need a channel to buy and sell materials, especially magic medicinal materials, we buy them ourselves, the need will be too much, and it is easy to encounter all kinds of contradictions, be deceived, be stalked, etc., if there is a channel of this business group, it will reduce our big trouble。 ”

Speaking of this, Hao said to Aiyi: "Miss Aiyi, these days, if you encounter something on the road, you might as well use more magic to come out, and then you can show some annoyed expressions from time to time." ”

Then Hao said to Noldo: "Mr. Noldor, when you interact with the people of this merchant group these days, you can occasionally say after drinking or during dinner that the head of the group is worried about becoming a high-level magician. ”

Nuo Duoran nodded, and then Hao said a few words to the other elves, which was nothing more than asking these elves not to expose the truth in the future.

Then, Hao carved some topographic maps on the floor of the treehouse, a long straight road, and then a circle, in which the names of several cities were written, and then Hao wrote a lot of words around these cities, which were the surrounding villages of these cities.

Although the Plant Alliance is only an alliance, it is certainly not comparable with the Elven Empire, whether it is civilization, population, heritage, or size, but it can be called an alliance, then it must be a force with the Holy Throne and the gods, the population is estimated to be tens of billions, and the area is also extremely vast, just on this border line, there are as many as seven or eight cities, plus towns, villages, the number is at least hundreds.

All this information was recorded in Hao's memory, and he now wrote it all down silently, and then carefully looked at the map, analyzing the location of these towns, the size of the towns, the population of the towns, the specialties and surroundings of the towns, etc., and then he drew a circle on one of the cities and two towns, and then thought about it for a long time, and then crossed out the city, and in the end, he only looked at these two towns.

The elves next to them are watching Hao's movements, they also understand that Hao is choosing the next destination, for this, in fact, the elves want to choose the city, after all, after the elves established the empire, the culture has developed for so many years, and ordinary elves have long been accustomed to the urban atmosphere, convenience, safety, etc., as for the plants, there are a few kinds, but the wilderness, the real jungle countryside, is not what the elves like.

However, they also know that Hao's decisions are often extremely far-reaching, which is related to the development of the team, and they can't say anything based on their preferences, so watching Hao pick and choose, the remaining two towns don't seem to satisfy him, and many elves are suddenly anxious, and they all look at Ai Yi vaguely.

Ay was also helpless, so he coughed lightly and said: "God, we know that you are very cautious, not to win, to lose first, and also to find a safe place as a station, and also to find a way back, but don't you think the towns are already very safe? Even if we don't go to the city, the town should be fine, if it is really the countryside, in addition to agricultural products and farmland, it is also difficult for us to develop." ”

Hao Wenyan nodded slightly, then looked away from the countryside, and continued to go back and forth between the two towns, many elves were relieved, and Ai Yi smiled and said to Hao: "God, in fact, sometimes I think you are too cautious, although the strength of our team is not strong, but with me as a magician, there are warriors, your strength is not weak, and you are still a wise man, and we are not conspicuous, will you have too many concerns, will you be too cautious." ”

Hao sighed softly and said, " There are problems with your thoughts, there are never too many concerns, and there are never too many cautions, this world is always full of all kinds of accidents, I never let fate or luck determine my future, for example, there may be countless necromancers around in the next second, or the city we go to will be sacrificed to the lower planes by the power, or the plant alliance will become a battlefield for the holy gods, or the holy gods will directly attack us, or we have internal personnel who betray and divulge our secrets and whereabouts, causing us to be hunted down, or suddenly encounter a large-scale natural disaster, or there is a low-latitude hidden existence that is heavily polluted and corroded aroundEither the master-servant contract you signed with me is actually fake, or the legacy I have gained is actually a trap, or you are all already monsters corrupted by the low latitudes, or we are all powerful pawns and toys, or we are all characters from a certain book, and we are all being maliciously written and treated...... If you're not careful, a hundred lives will die quickly. ”

(...... This is already more cautious than usual, isn't it? It's not an exaggeration to say that the victim is paranoid. οΌ‰

All the elves heard it with a secret pain, but they couldn't say anything, it turned out that along the way, thanks to Hao's caution, a large number of disasters that could be wiped out were avoided, such as the Eyelid Beasts, such as several landslides in the hilly area, all of which were spent by Hao's caution.

Ay laughed and teased at this time: "You are so cautious and worried, why don't you just build a floating city, that thing is the safest, and when you encounter an enemy of the Holy Throne, you can also hide in the subspace and escape to the outer plane, is there a safer place than this?"

"Floating City...... "Hao thought about it seriously.

Ai Yi immediately pulled Hao and said: "Wait, wait a minute, you don't really have this plan, right? Don't be kidding, that's the war weapon that only the Arcanist can make for mortals to use against the Holy Throne Gods, since the records of history, there are only three floating cities, all of which fell when the Logic Clan fought against the Titan Clan, since then, almost all the members of the Logic Clan have been in seclusion, and they haven't built another one for so many years, I'm afraid that the cost of building a floating city is greater than becoming a holy god, right? We have no technology, no materials, no personnel, what do you want!"

"Well, Floating City is exaggerating. Hao frankly admitted, which made the surrounding elves breathe a sigh of relief, and then he continued: "But the floating magic tower should still be able to think of a way." ”

"Floating...... Magic Tower!?" Aye muttered with wide eyes.

Hao nodded and said, " In terms of magic towers, I have also had a detailed understanding that any magic tower can increase the combat power of magicians, according to the different layers of the magic tower, different functions, different manufacturing materials, the increase is possible from seven or eight times to seven or eight times, and the territory that can be protected is also from a few kilometers to hundreds of kilometers, at the same time, the magic tower is also divided into many subspecies, variants, advanced varieties, such as the abyss magic tower, which is the most favorite of the magicians in the lower plane, which can condense the abyssal consciousness on the magic tower and produce a huge abyssal corrosion effect on the surrounding area, as well as the geocentric magic tower, which is dominated by the aura of the underground world, Greatly strengthen the defensive and offensive nature of the magic tower, which is famous for its mobility, the magic tower is divided into space magic towers, such as subspace magic towers, projection magic towers and the like, but these are too expensive, and they also need to be made by at least a strong demigod or above, we can't think about it, but the floating magic tower, as a magic tower with both mobility and defense, the fastest flight speed can reach about 6,000 kilometers per hour, with the increase in the rank of the magician, you can also take the magic tower for space door teleportation, and the interior can also condense subspace, such a magic tower can accommodate tens of thousands of people are idle, if we have a floating magic tower, this can be regarded as almost invincible below the holy gods. ”

Many elves were speechless when they heard this, and Gray, who was particularly sensitive to money, asked directly: "God, how many spirit stones do you need to build a three-story floating magic tower?"

Hao said bluntly: " It's almost about 80 million spirit stones, and it is necessary to let at least some of the high-level magicians sacrifice part of their permanent spirit and magic power to carry out the magic enchantment of constant levitation and anti-gravity for the magic tower, and at the same time, they also need a large number of extremely precious minerals that are priceless, and this price is priceless, so even in the Elven Empire, the number of floating magic towers with three floors and above is less than a hundred, which are basically controlled by the royal family, the principalities of various places, as well as the military and the Supreme Council, and even some big nobles, magic families, and magic schools are not there。 ”

All the elves looked at Hao with a kind of gaze that you understand, and Hao didn't feel ashamed at all, he said directly: "This is only one of our options in the future, and it doesn't necessarily have to be made by ourselves, you know, we are now an adventure group, how can the adventure group stay in one place all the time? How can it not take on the adventure mission? How can we not go to the wilderness to explore?"

"It's decided, it's this town, Sulan City, an inconspicuous town on the border of the Plant Alliance. Hao pointed to a small circle on the map he had drawn.

Everyone looked at it, and then tried to recall the town called Sulan City from their memories, but there was no doubt that no one had any memory, this was a very ordinary small town of the Plant Alliance, not even a city, it was normal for them not to know.

Hao said frankly: "The reason why I chose this town is very simple, first of all, it is located on the border, no matter what happens, we can quickly leave the Plant Alliance and enter the wilderness, at this point, there are many towns and cities to choose from, which can only be regarded as one of the reasons to choose it." ”

"Another reason is that this city is on the border, which is one of the transportation arteries into the Botanical Alliance, and after that, going deep into the Botanical Alliance, there are more than seven cities that need to pass through this town, and the three religions and nine streams will converge there, which is one of the advantages. ”

"The third reason is that there are many wilderness areas around this town, namely two forests, a grassland, a hill, and mountains in the distance, which are geographically suitable for hiding and escaping, and if things are not harmonious, we can escape into the terrain at any time. ”

"The last reason, there is a legend in this Suran City, legend has it that there was a spiritual magician born in this Suran City, and this is a talented spiritual magician, he carried out cruel life experiments in the underground around this Suran City, secretly used civilians of many races to conduct experiments, live experiments, for which thousands of people died, and in the end, all the clues pointed to him, and even the Holy Throne lowered the doppelganger to hold him accountable, but he had no remorse, and even the Holy Throne doppelganger planned to arrest and conduct experiments, and even almost let it succeed, and finally, the Holy Throne God came directly and beat it to ashes, and his magic tower and all the treasures are hidden in a space underground, where it is said that there are countless evil spirits and curses around, and there are bound demons and devil guards summoned by this spirit magician, no one finds that treasure, and the person who finds it cannot return alive, and over time, no one looks for it anymore, but it is said that the magic tower of this spirit magician is a floating five-story magic tower. ”

Hao stopped when he said this, the elves were full of incredulity, and Noldor said directly: " This is not credible, it is estimated that it is a rumor in the market, a talented spiritual magician, and then it is a holy god, although this step is extremely difficult, but after the war of all races, in the case of the arrival of the two emperors, this is almost the strongest combat power that the alliance can use externally, he just wants to conduct biological experiments, it is estimated that the alliance or the holy position will find many experiments of hostile races for it, why be killed because of this? It is not logical. ”

The rest of the elves all nodded, but Hao just smiled and didn't explain much.

This story was when he was searching for various information about the alliance around the Elf Empire, he saw it in a geographical magazine, and this magazine also said such words in a ridiculous tone, but this magazine was more rigorous, and it also took some city logs, books, old newspapers and the like of some old libraries in Sulan City, and on it, Hao saw a photo, in which it was a ruin, and a dilapidated log, the content of the log was a poem, at that time, Hao had a lot of time, and there was nothing else to do except study every day, so he deduced the content of this poem carefully and boringly, and then combined with the geography of Sulan City, as well as the surrounding environment, the place where the Holy Throne God War may have taken place, and then he found that the content of this poem was actually a map, a map of the underground passages, and he kept this matter in mind at that time.

As for why this spirit magician was treated like this, and why he kept doing life experiments of various races, especially the races of the Plant Alliance, the reason was very simple......

This spirit magician is a hybrid in the lower plane, and he tries to change his bloodline life factor and completely solve the tragic experience of the half-blood.

At the same time, in the tent of the merchant group outside the tree house, Yi Shanjiu, the head of the merchant group, was lying in the bed, he subconsciously touched a strangely shaped necklace on his chest, and his eyes were a little dazed for a while.

"A magician? a high-level magician...... Is it?"
