Chapter 46: Action

The morning sun is shining. (Book ^ House * Small} Say + Net)

The smell of blood in the valley of the Fishbeam Tree was gradually dissipating, and the loot left behind by the Steel Fang Regiment had been sent down by the big Jon, but the faces of the pioneers were clouded with a layer of gloom in addition to excitement and greed.

After a night of precipitation, they all knew their situation very clearly.

After killing the younger brother of the Iron Sword Regiment, they have no way out, even if they come to the door with their eyes open, whether the Iron Sword Regiment can take them in is still one thing, and Rhodes will definitely not let them go.

There is no way to retreat, and this group of people can only hold on.

Early in the morning.

A few of Jon's minor leaders drove the kobold slaves to the wood, and they moved the piles of lumber to strengthen the wooden fence on the outskirts of the valley.

According to the big man's report, they plan to spend a day building a 20-foot-high, 5-foot-thick wooden fence at the mouth of the valley, and the platform behind the fence will be removed, and they will build two wooden guard towers.

This group of pioneers is not cowards, and the people who dare to be the first to share the cake either have a greedy heart or are the kind of reckless men, and it is clear that they are a group of people who know the times, and after knowing that they are going to face the Iron Sword Regiment, they are eager to build the valley into an iron wall.

Rhodes was happy about it, too.

Although he didn't plan to defend the valley, the swordsmen were not a group of people who liked to defend, and for them, the best defense was offense, but he felt that it was always good to let a group of men who had nowhere to vent their physical strength do something.

The kobold captives in the valley and some of the guys who later took refuge all need to be polished, and these physical tasks can also be a good drain on their energy.

Behind the valley.

Rhodes stood on a high ground and looked down on the foreground, where there was a very beautiful landscape of pale red, with dark red leaves and gray bark as white as bones, and there were about thirty or forty fish beams.

It was not what he expected.

In this small piece of Yuliang wood forest, there is actually a particularly tall tree in the middle, it seems that it is at least a hundred years old, this already belongs to the category of ancient trees, like this level of ancient trees in the hands of the tree herdsman, after a simple point can catalyze a strong tree warrior.

And the fish beam wood tree species is peculiar, and the kind of demonized warrior usually has some special specialties that surprise people.

"Boss! Sure enough, I found it! ”

The voice of surprise came from the woods, pulling Rhodes' thoughts back to flying.

Below, Jon walked towards Rhodes with a small, delicate vermilion fruit in his hand.

Fish beam tree fruit!

This kind of xenomorph tree is very special, it is impossible to spread seeds without adult trees, and even if the seeds fall to the ground, the growth rate is very low, and usually, the accumulation of this century-old tree over a hundred years will develop such a small forest.

In fact.

The thirty or forty Yuliang wood forests in front of him are relatively rare, and under normal circumstances, the survival rate of Yuliang trees is outrageously low, and Rhodes even wonders if there are any treasures buried under this valley.

Hundred-year-old fish beams are usually effective for sowing, but Rhodes knows that the real value of this ancient tree is not in the sowing, but in the strange fruit.

The fruit of the fish beam wood is very strange, and it does not have the calming effect of the fish beam wood itself, but it has a peculiar effect on the wurm species.

It can "purify" the bloodline of wurmmon.

As we all know, dragons are a group of absurd** extraordinary creatures, they love all kinds of shiny treasures, and their habits are even more chaotic.

There are many kinds of dragons on the Ash continent, and there are many dragonborn intelligent creatures, and even overseas, a group of dragonmen have established their own small kingdoms, and the probability of giving birth to spellcasters among dragonmen is still very high, so the strength of the overseas dragonman kingdom even exceeds many people's imagination.

The effect of the fish beam fruit came from that dragonborn country.

It cleanses the Dragonborn's bloodline of impurities.

Strengthening the bloodline is a way to improve the strength of these guys who rely on the bloodline of the dragon.

But what Rhodes wanted to do was to use this batch of fruits to domesticate a batch of mounts.

Time is running out for Rod.

Whether it is a real catastrophe or the strategic plan of Xiliu City, there is a sense of imminence, and now that he is facing the Iron Sword Mercenary Group, he needs to quickly improve his strength, whether it is his own strength or the surrounding forces.

Yuliang wood is a precious resource, but there are not many forces that can consume this precious resource in the vicinity of Xiliu City.

The official power of Xiliu City is one, and the shield emblem consortium that is about to settle in Xiliu City is also one, but this requires a process of digestion, selling Yuliang Mu and buying a batch of resources, but these resources cannot quickly increase their strength.

Instead, selling to the mage of the Tower of Dim is in his best interest at the moment.

The Tower of Dim is a group of mages similar to dark wizards, they have a lot of potions that can increase their strength, as well as many strange items that can increase their combat power, but unfortunately, the Tower of Dim is a little far away from him, and it can't quench his thirst.

But.

When Rod saw the hundred-year-old fish beam tree fruit, he had such an idea.

"Boss, there is a lot of fruit on the tree, but what's the use of these?" Jon looked at the basket of fish beams that his subordinates had gotten, and was a little confused.

Rod glanced at Jon and instead of explaining, he asked, "What happened to what you arranged?" ”

"The monkeys have set off early this morning, and they should be back at camp by noon, and the news will spread immediately," the big man said in a deep voice.

Spread the word!

This is Rod's first move, taking down the Steel Tooth Regiment does not mean that he has enough capital, in fact, Rod's current power is not even as good as a second-rate mercenary group.

If it weren't for his superior personal strength, almost one person could wipe out half of the other people's regiments, and this rabble really didn't have much effect.

He needs to muddy the waters.

Send people to the Osm Watchtower camp to spread the news, their first pioneers have succeeded, and once the news is returned, many scattered people will be moved.

The current situation is that the major mercenary groups are busy digesting new territory, and the scattered people are not satisfied with the interests of hunting monsters, and once his news spreads, it will immediately give birth to batch after batch of pioneer groups.

Although this news may anger the Iron Sword Order, prompting them to come and retaliate in advance.

But Rhodes didn't care.

Sooner or later, they will be on the opposite side.

Spreading this news muddies the waters on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is to damage the prestige of the Iron Sword Regiment.

The explosion of the development boom is conducive to the invasion strategy of the Emerald Territory in the Weststream City, and the officials of the Westflow City are biased in favor of Rhodes in this position, and it will take a little effort for the Iron Sword Regiment to eat the Seth Guard Tower camp and the resource points around it.

Rod also didn't believe that the top brass of Iron Sword would give up the benefits that were about to come and turn around and attack him first.
