Chapter 19, The Huge Gambling Wheel
Night soon fell on Obsidian.
Although the strange duel between the two sons of the Zheng family caused a lot of turmoil in Obsidian City, however, it was night. There was another shocking news in Obsidian. The Zheng family's factory was attacked by a group of unknown people. And it was succeeded? Obsidian City turned upside down.
The gates were closed at noon, and the city was filled with stubborn soldiers and glowing earth mechs. When night approaches, all the shops are closed. Door-to-door doors are closed.
On the street, magic lamps loom into a long line. Bands of soldiers armed with crystal guns marched in unison. A noisy sound of mechs resounded through the night. From time to time, there was the sound of sky mecha whizzing past in the sky.
Even His Royal Highness Luke Louis, the third prince from the Buffae Empire, was shocked. The two royal knight squads responsible for his safety were mobilized at the first time. A total of twelve Golden Knights and twelve Golden Mechs joined the search team. The ninth-generation Type 325 Sky Mecha is destined to become a mecha for the Imperial Legion-style troops. Not to mention whether some weaknesses will be exposed, if the kind of mecha that has a leap in technology is imitated by the opponent, it will be a big loss for the Buffy Empire.
For a while, Obsidian City became a pot of porridge. I don't know if I don't check, but I really scared Ye Lan and Zheng Tianhua when I checked it. Unknown individuals suspected of being enemy spies are constantly being searched. Most of these people are people from the Divine Hidden Empire, and they would rather die than surrender after being discovered one by one, and they are not weak. If there is no mecha suppression, it will bring huge casualties to the city defense army in the complex terrain of the city.
Grand Duke Ye Lan was furious. The order was given on the spot. One hundred Sky Mechs were transferred from the Duchy's Navy to Obsidian. (The Principality of Donglin is located in the southernmost part of the Buffy Empire and is a peninsular country)
These mechs were transported by the Navy to the waters of the neighboring provinces of Obsidian City on the same day, and flew all the way directly from the battleship. Begin the most brutal crackdown on the spies in Obsidian.
There are these sky mechs patrolling in the air at all times. Once they are located, even the Martial Saint has no possibility of escaping. For those Martial Saints, being able to deal with the Earth Mecha was already their limit, and they were facing the attack of the Sky Mecha at this moment. It's like no matter how cunning a vole encounters an eagle, how can it have the power to resist, and it will be immediately beaten into a god.
The henchmen in Obsidian began to deplete rapidly. From time to time, people from the Hidden Empire were escorted by soldiers of the city defense army on the streets, who were seriously injured or simply corpses.
(Note, although there is only a one-word difference between the Martial Saint and the Martial God, the comprehension of the realm makes a qualitative gap in combat effectiveness between them, and it is a matter of course that the Martial Saint is killed by the Martial God in seconds.) Compared with the Sky Mecha, the gap between the Legendary Mecha and the Golden Mecha is only the level of the magic circle and the production materials, although the mobility has increased by more than ten times, but it cannot be said to be a qualitative difference. If the quality of the knight is similar, it is still possible for twenty or thirty golden mechs to defeat a legendary mecha. After all, the potential of foreign objects is never inferior to that of humans. This is also the reason why Valkyrie can defeat the legendary mecha, but the Martial Saint can only fight against the earth mecha)
And just like that, three days have passed since the duel. And the spies were basically caught. I didn't find the blueprints. But Zheng Tianhua and others were a lot more relieved, and there were all kinds of signs. The blueprint had not yet been taken out of Obsidian, and the leader of the spies with him, pursued by a team of twelve golden mechs, escaped several times under the desperate cover of his men. But with the loss of his subordinates, he is now basically alone. It was only a matter of time before she was caught.
As a result, the army in Obsidian City searched even harder, how to get the word "powerful". Not only the spies of the Hidden Empire, but also the spies of other countries have caught a lot.
At this moment, with the implementation of the ban in the city, the casinos in Obsidian City are naturally closed today.
Inside a luxurious private room in the casino. The casino shopkeeper looked at the beautiful girl sitting in front of him with tears in his eyes. Legs keep shaking.
He knew that this beautiful girl was the real owner of this casino, Nan Yunxin, the only daughter of Nanyun Zheng, the second master of the Nanyun family. And this usually high-ranking lady will come to this casino today, she never wants to come to the casino. Needless to say, it is naturally about the gambling plate of the duel between the two young masters of the Zheng family a few days ago.
On that day, someone bought Zheng Jia's two million gold coins at odds of one to three hundred. This back and forth is a full 600 million gold coins.
The back of the casino shopkeeper is full of cold sweat at the moment, this time, not only the position of the casino shopkeeper who has worked hard for many years is not guaranteed. I'm afraid that a bad net worth and life will be used by the Nanyun family to vent hatred. The shopkeeper looked at the sturdy middle-aged man beside Nan Yunxin, the hideous muscles, and his old bones were going to be in his hands, so he was not dismantled in seconds? Thinking like this, he was even more afraid in his heart.
"Who bought these two million gold coins, have you found out?" Nan Yunxin's face sank like water at this moment.
"I found out, it was the attendant next to Zheng Tianhua, the second son of the Zheng family. Miss, damn it, I really didn't expect that the second young master of the Zheng family would be a martial god-level master. I thought he was just a speculator...... Woo, I still hope that Miss will see that the old servant has been loyal to the Nanyun family for so many years, and spare the old servant this time......"
This shopkeeper is also a crying bar, and before he said a few words, he began to cry and howl, while crying, he did not forget to make a code and gesture to the running hall behind him.
Those who ran the hall had already been bought by him with a lot of money, and they also cried with the shopkeeper: "The shopkeeper has been loyal in the past few years, and he has worked hard for the affairs of the casino, and I hope Miss will spare him this time to ......"
For a while, the luxurious private rooms of the casino became like a mourning hall, and these runners cried with the shopkeeper and cried in the dark. The expression is called a heart like a knife, five insides like burning, and the liver and intestines are broken. After all, Nan Yunxin is a little girl who has not been involved in the world, how can she know the doorway inside, and she was a little upset by their crying. Immediately shook his hand and said, "I'll clean you up when I come back." ”
As he spoke, he walked towards the door with the middle-aged strong man who came with her. Looking at her back, the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that this level is over for the time being.
"Miss, where are we going?" out of the casino, the middle-aged strong man asked Nan Yunxin angrily.
"Hmph, of course we are going to visit the Zheng family, otherwise we are really going to prepare 600 million gold coins and others to get them?" Nan Yunxin said angrily.
Of course, Zheng Xiyuan didn't know all this.
When he returned, he placed a curse on An Xizhong. In this way, Anxi became his confidant as he wished. However, his strength is still too low. I thought of the spirit grass in my courtyard. Zheng Xiyuan thought to himself that it was time to let them play a role.
Let Anxi go to Lingxiao Pavilion and order a Dan furnace, 100,000 gold coins will go down, plus Zheng Xiyuan didn't want any gorgeous patterns. Ling Ye didn't fool him. Within a day, this Danding, made of the hardest and most heat-resistant metal on the continent, Xuanyin Stone, was sent to the Earl's Palace.
Everything is ready, before alchemy, Zheng Xiyuan wanted to see Ye Ruoxi first, and she still owed herself a promise! But remembering that Grand Duke Ye Lan was still in Obsidian City these days, Ye Ruoxi naturally accompanied her. There was an old man who was in the way, and Ye Yun's eighth wife, as a member of the Ye family, was naturally there, so there was no need to find it uncomfortable by herself.
I picked some spirit grass from the courtyard. began to refine the pill, and he practiced this elixir called "Washing the Pulp Pill". This elixir can quickly improve a person's cultivation system. Enhance human potential. Speed up your practice. It is extremely useful for early cultivators.
Although Zheng Xiyuan doesn't look down on the practice of cultivating fighting qi, he still knows that the elixir of washing the marrow is a spiritual pill that changes the system. It is the most helpful for the cultivation of Dou Qi.
There are still too few masters around him, and Zheng Xiyuan decided to artificially raise X into a batch. This kind of marrow cleansing pill was naturally refined by him in a big furnace.
At this moment, Zheng Xiyuan was sitting in the firewood room of his own courtyard, pinching the fire control technique with one hand, and beating a trace of the three-flavor true fire into the Danding with the other. But I was thinking about the events of the past few days.
That woman named Lin Yuxun really caused a lot of trouble for herself. I glanced at the design I was carrying in my arms. Zheng Xiyuan's own thing, of course, will not watch it being taken away by others. If you want to take it, you have to give it away yourself. So the night before the duel, he went and replaced the blueprint with an old-style mech. Anyway, the layman can't see the difference.
At this moment, Lin Yuxun is estimated to be the one he takes, if Lin Yuxun knows, they have lost nearly a thousand masters before and after, but what they finally get is only the design of the eighth-generation sky mecha that is common on the mainland, and it is estimated that they will vomit a basin of blood on the spot.
You ask Zheng Xiyuan how do you know where the design is? Of course, Zheng Tianhua will not be idle, and he will say when he sees people.
But when Zheng Xiyuan's divine sense monitored Lin Yuxun, Lin Yuxun's subordinates "reported" to him. The information provided by these spies of the Hidden Empire is really quite accurate. With Zheng Xiyuan's elusive skills. The blueprint came to hand in a few clicks.
However, Zheng Xiyuan still didn't expect Grand Duke Ye Lan to be so ruthless, so he directly transferred the only sky mecha unit in the imperial navy fleet. Changing the design is also like taking off your pants and farting. He still has to think about how to save Lin Yuxun, if he is caught by his father or Grand Duke Ye Lan, this chick will probably be killed, let alone take away the design drawings. Won't her maid Mei Jiao Niang just go to the soup in this way? No, no, no. Zheng Xiyuan thought that he had to make a quick move. Just Lin Yuxun's three-legged cat's kung fu. If it weren't for Zheng Xiyuan letting Lin Yuan secretly help a few times a few times, she would have been enjoying torture in the cell of Obsidian City at this moment.
Speaking of Lin Yuan, the old man, has the same surname as Lin Yuxun, Zheng Xiyuan guessed whether the two of them were related. Lin Yuan said that he didn't know Lin Yuxun, but he said that he had left the Shenyin Empire and traveled on the mainland for more than three hundred years. I can't figure out that Lin Yuxun is really a descendant of their family.
Thinking about this in his heart, there was a knock on the door of the firewood room, but it was Zheng Rong, the housekeeper of the Zheng family.
