Chapter Seventy-Four: The Black Dragon Society
Hearing Yang Hu's shout, Haoxing asked, "General, do you know this Black Dragon Society?"
Yang Hu nodded: "The Black Dragon Society is the largest killer organization in the Huiyue Empire, spread throughout the Huiyue Empire. Even if it is a martial venerable, they can kill to death! It can be said that as long as they can afford the price, there is no one who the black dragon will not be able to kill!"
"However, because the black dragon will kill too many people, it has caused the anger of Emperor Huiyue, and he has sent elite soldiers to take more than a dozen of their dens. The leader of the Black Dragon Society, the Dragon King, issued a statement that he would not kill innocents indiscriminately in the future, but only kill people who killed people for no reason, and compensated a large number of spirit stones, which calmed the anger of Emperor Huiyue. ”
"What? When did I kill someone for no reason?"
In Haoxing's impression, it has always been others who took the initiative to kill him, counterattacked by himself, and never killed anyone for no reason.
"You can listen to this kind of thing, as long as it doesn't involve too much, the emperor won't care. After all, if they really provoke the people of the Black Dragon Society, they will kill innocents indiscriminately in the city, and the losses will be even greater!"
"Then do you just let them develop like this? In the end, if it doesn't end well, it will only end up losing a sum of money, and everyone else will die in vain?"
Looking at the indignant Haoxing, Yang Hu sighed heavily, how could he not be like this back then? Even if he rushed to the court to confront the emperor, what could he do?
"There are some things that you don't understand right now. In this world where the strong are respected, the weak are destined to be bullied! And all we can do is do our best to protect the weak. ”
Looking at the bright moonlight, Haoxing silently stepped on Xiaojin and flew back to the inn.
Perhaps, it really is.
At the same time, in a dark corner of the Huiyue Empire, a black eagle slowly landed. A man in a black and black suit walked down from the eagle, and behind the man, there was a man who walked tremblingly and was bleeding from his chest. The man in the suit looked around. He whispered a few words, and after a few breaths, a small teleportation array appeared, sending the two to an unknown place.
......
After such a fuss, everyone in the White Tiger Army had no intention of cultivating again, and after paying the shopkeeper a sum of money, they set foot on the road to the Holy Light City again!
As the main city of the Qinglong Domain and the imperial capital of the Huiyue Empire, the specifications of the Holy Light City are naturally much higher than those of other cities. The size of the city alone is enough to be worth fifty Kurosawa Castles!
The tallest building in the City of Light is the Stargazing Tower. The whole body is dark, and the tower body is carved with the four sacred beasts of the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, and the Xuanwu. It also uses the flame gold crystal to inlay several vast star maps, which are magnificent and eye-catching. The top of the tower is hundreds of zhang high, only leaving a place to stand on its top, and carved with many mysterious formations and stargazing instruments.
The materials used to build the Stargazing Tower are also unusual, but they are made of the Star and Moon Ore after being refined by the Earth and Fire, and it took hundreds of fourth-grade refiners several months to cast it. On the day of casting, the blue lotus fire and thunder came to the world! The thunder split for more than three days, and then the colorful neon appeared, and the green lotus fire and thunder disappeared into the clouds.
In terms of defense, the Stargazing Tower is enough to compare to the high-grade mysteries!
The second tallest building belongs to the Purple City of the Huiyue Empire. The Purple City is a city within a city, and the color palette is mainly purple, gold, and red. The building has been built for thousands of years, and has been eroded by the years, and each rock, material, and well has its own unique story.
There are four gates in the city, named after the four divine beasts, located in the four directions of southeast, northwest and northwest. There are a total of nine main halls, ninety-nine branch halls, as well as bedrooms, back gardens, imperial dining halls, internal affairs offices and other buildings, adding up to just nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine!
One of the most representative buildings is the Purple Gold Palace, which handles the political affairs of the Huiyue Empire. The length and width of the hall body are 59 zhang each, symbolizing the 95 supreme! The top of the hall is 19 zhang high, adopts the heavy eaves structure, the purple gold gilt stone is carved as a whole, the top of the hall is inlaid with nine Rui beasts of different forms, which makes people dare not look directly!
The entire Purple City is serious, majestic, and exudes an air of extravagance.
In comparison, the Holy Light City on the periphery of Purple Gold City was not so magnificent. However, compared to the main cities of the Four Domains, it is still much better.
......
"Tomorrow, the martial arts exercise of the four armies will begin, you will stay honest with me, especially Haoxing, you are not allowed to leave the room for half a step!" At the door of the Hongtian Inn, Yang Hu glared at Haoxing and rushed to the venue of the fourth army's martial arts exercise.
As soon as the silver chase order came out, the Black Dragon Society killers who came to assassinate Haoxing were afraid that there would be a steady stream. It's just that in the Holy Light City, the void is all over the ground, and there are as many martial artists as dogs. The killers of the Black Dragon Society did not dare to act here, but on the way back, I was afraid that there would be constant trouble.
Haoxing shrugged and walked into the No. 1 room. When the door was closed, one hand stopped it.
"Haoxing, let's go out for a walk, I haven't been to the Holy Light City. ”
It was Xiao Lan, the only woman in the White Tiger Army who spoke, and one of the ten people who participated in the competition. has been in the army for a few months, no one knows her identity, and she is usually very arrogant, without the reserve and subtlety of a woman at all. When it comes to fighting, it's just two words, tough!
"Yes, yes, and us!"
"But the general has just ......"
"Come on, it's almost two hours for him to come back, it's enough for us to play!" The old wolf didn't wait for Haoxing to finish speaking, and dragged Haoxing out with Xiaolan.
Reluctantly, Haoxing still chose to "join the same stream", after all, he also wanted to go out to see and learn.
"Follow me!" Rushing out of the inn, Xiao Lan rushed towards the wide street like a wild horse that had escaped the reins.
"Slow down!" Haoxing shouted, chasing after Xiao Lan.
"I said Xiaolan, how do I feel that you are very familiar with this place, but I have been here a few times, but I am not familiar with you. You won't live here before, will you?" the old turtle took a few breaths and smiled at Xiao Lan.
"Why, I've just been here once before, and my memory is better. ”
But Haoxing could clearly feel that Xiao Lan's eyes were a little evasive when she said this, as if she didn't want to mention it.
Then look to the side, there is a majestic Dan Tower, with three floors, and the tower is octagonal. The tower is engraved with mysterious runes, and the higher you go, the smaller the tower becomes. A red orb on the top kept spinning, emitting a scorching red glow.
Pointing to Danta, Haoxing said, "That's what you're not talking about, is it?"
Xiao Lan grinned: "Haven't you yet taken the alchemy level, go and try it." ”
To be honest, Haoxing was also preparing to take an alchemist badge in the Holy Light City, but he didn't think about what level he would take.
"At least bring me a fourth-grade alchemist back, otherwise don't say you're my apprentice!"
A soft snort sounded from Haoxing's mind, making Haoxing sigh: "How easy is it to talk about a four-grade alchemist, and besides, isn't this too eye-catching?"
"What are you afraid of, you just have to be high-profile, so that Emperor Huiyue will notice your value, so as to protect you. ”
"Won't you be caught doing research?"
"What do you think, that's before, now you, the main thing is to prove your worth. Otherwise, on the side of the Black Dragon Society, I can't do anything. ”
After hearing this, Haoxing was stunned, since he knew Yun Lao, he seemed to have never said similar discouraged words.
"Hey, nerd, what are you thinking!"
Xiao Lan slapped it suddenly, pulling Haoxing's mind back, and Cancan smiled and said, "It's okay, let's go in." Then he took the lead and walked towards the Alchemist Guild.
"You guys say how Haoxing has been babbling lately, I don't know what I'm thinking. ”
"Maybe the four armies are going to exercise soon, so I'm a little nervous. ”
"Don't talk about it, let's go in and have a look. ”
Danta has a five-person wide gate, made of red sandalwood mixed with agarwood, which looks simple and elegant, exuding a unique fragrance.
There was a ten-year-old Dantong at the door, greeting all kinds of people coming in and out. There are those who seek pills, there are those who see doctors, and of course, there are many people who wear alchemist robes.
According to the rules of the alchemist, the first to ninth grades wear white, blue, green, blue, yellow, orange, purple, red, and black robes, and wear a corresponding badge. The badge is made of hundred-year-old spar stone, which can withstand the nine blows of the Void Period without damage! The badge of the first-grade alchemist is engraved with a star, the second-grade alchemist badge is engraved with two, and so on.
The status of the seventh-grade alchemist is much higher than that of the domain master. The badge is made of millennium crystalline. It is no longer engraved with stars, but is represented by a crescent moon.
Not to mention the eight-rank alchemist, even in the entire Huiyue Empire, there is only one person, and that is the president of the Alchemist Guild, Nangong Wentian!
And Jipin, since the catastrophe three thousand years ago, the mainland has never heard of it again. Now, it's just a legend.
"May I ask if you are here to ask for Dan or to get the qualification of an alchemist?"
Dantong in front of the door was very polite, stretched out his hand to invite Haoxing in, and exuded a very infectious smile.
Haoxing nodded secretly: It is worthy of the headquarters of the Alchemist Guild, and even the Dantong who guards the door is the sixth level of the psychic period!
"I'm here to qualify as an alchemist. ”
"Presumably this is your first time testing in the Alchemist Guild, right?"
Seeing Haoxing nodding, Dan Tong said again: "The assessment location of the first-grade alchemist is in room No. 1 on the first floor, you can just go in directly." Then he turned and went back to the door.
"Wait. ”
"Any questions?"
"May I ask where is the assessment location of the fourth-grade alchemist?"
A look of disdain flashed in Dantong's eyes, but he quickly returned to normal. said: "You want to obtain the qualification of a fourth-grade alchemist?"
"Well, I want to try it. ”
"It's in room No. 4 on the first floor, but you can only go back when you have the qualification of a third-grade alchemist. Although he didn't believe that Haoxing would be able to get the badge, Dan Tong still answered the question.
"Little one, you don't have to go, you don't have to go, you don't have to be embarrassed. A man in a cyan robe happened to pass by, heard Haoxing's words, and mocked contemptuously.
In his opinion, Haoxing was already talented if he was able to obtain a first-grade alchemist, but it was absolutely impossible for a fourth-grade alchemist!
"You tell Brother Lao Tzu again, be careful that Lao Tzu beats you so that you can't get out of bed!" An angry roar came from the door, causing everyone in the lobby on the first floor to look over.
