Chapter 014: The Moment of Return (Revision)

At first, the Bone Chewer forced Yang Jiangong back with a fierce attack, and after a few more rounds of fighting, the cunning Bone Chewer suddenly shifted and used his thin arm, like pincers, to pinch a glorious swordsman beside Yang Jiangong.

"Hahaha...... Only human blood is the most thirst-quenching thing. ”

The Bone Chewer roared hoarsely. He seemed to have realized that Yang Jiangong was not so easy to deal with, so he deliberately provoked Yang Jiangong.

"Let him go."

Yang Jiangong's eyes narrowed, staring angrily at the bone chewer.

At this time, the glorious swordsman who was captured by the bone chewer was unable to move as if he was carrying a jack gate.

The High Ogre has a human-like appearance, but when his pupils are dilated to reveal the fangs in his mouth, he is even more fierce and bloodthirsty than ordinary ogres. The moment the bone chewer bit the Radiant Swordsman, Yang Jiangong knew that it was too late to rescue.

The Bone Chewer bit down on the Radiant Swordsman's neck and gulped in, the visibly bulging Adam's apple squirming in a series of 'clattering sounds'.

At this point, Yang Jiangong's eyes flashed with an uncontrollable anger, like an enraged lion.

"Titan's Grip!"

A sub-god-level talent that directly doubles its strength and speed.

"I want you dead."

Instantly reaching the strength of the heavy knight class, when the opponent was defenseless, the sharp blade of Maia's sword accurately slashed through the neck of the bone chewer.

Suddenly, he suffered a fatal wound, and from the curves of the bone chewer's hideous facial muscles, it immediately distorted and emerged in great pain and disbelief. "You ......"

Massive blood loss, causing the high-level Ogre Bone Eater to fall to the ground quickly.

After killing the bone chewer, Yang Jiangong did not stop at all, and did not look back and ordered, "Rush out, don't stop!" ”

The Brilliant Swordsman, who always maintained an offensive formation, opened the way with the heavy sword in his hand, crossing the small half of the Broken Bone Tribe, causing a certain amount of panic and turmoil.

It's just that at the final exit, there are hundreds of ogres blocking the way.

This shrouded the eyes of many glorious swordsmen, until the voice of the guard officer Leon gradually roared from low to high, "Kill, for the sake of Lorkadan, protect my king!" Then his face turned red, and he rushed forward like crazy.

In less than half an hour of fighting, more than a dozen glorious swordsmen were killed here.

Yang Jiangong's head "buzzed", and only killing was left in his eyes. This period of fighting made his body gradually weakened, but he still gritted his teeth and slashed the sword of Maia into the ogre's chest. He could clearly see that the ogre under his sword was trembling all over his body before he died, trembling like chaff, and his wide white pupils were filled with despair.

A gap was torn between the dense ogres, and on both wings of the attacking formation, more glorious swordsmen fell.

After two hours.

Yang Jiangong took the Radiant True Knowledge Crystal Ball and the remaining 48 Radiant Swordsmen to finally break through and successfully reached the other end of the Devouring Crypt.

"Most of the time, glory and fame are like a river, on which something light and swollen floats, which will eventually be diluted by time. And those heavy and solid things sink to the bottom and will always be remembered. ”

More than half of the 100 strongest Lol Cardin elites were killed in battle.

A lord's crown of glory is woven from blood-stained thorns, and there is nothing wrong with that.

52 Radiant Swordsmen were killed.

They will share the same tombstone, the same epitaph.

"Give a cold glimpse of life and death. The body of Lol Cardin rests here, and the soul of Lol Cardin gallops by. ”

It is not easy to use more concise or touching language to describe this sad story of misfortune, life and death, burial, tragedy and courage.

For Yang Jiangong, this is not a virtual game after all, and people can be resurrected after death. Each Lol Cardan person has only one life, and after more than a year of getting along, for Yang Jiangong, almost all of them are familiar faces.

And, in Yang Jiangong's eyes, these glorious swordsmen all fought for the survival of Lol Cardin and died for the glory of Lol Kadan.

"My king, please mourn!"

The guard officer Leon didn't know how long Yang Jiangong would stay. But he was willing to calm down and accompany the Radiant Emperor to be silent like this.

Bidding farewell to the soul of the fallen Loer Cardan made Yang Jiangong a little difficult to give up, but he was not stunned, he felt sorry, but he was not pessimistic.

There are more important things waiting for him to do. So after only about 5 minutes of silence, Yang Jiangong gave the order with a calm face, "Go back to Lol Cardin!" ”

………………

Two days later.

Edmund, the Silver Dragon Knight, with less than 1,000 men, returned to the Ice Fortress. As for how he would explain to the kingdom, all he needed to do was write a simple report to the Imperial Council that the Ice Fortress had successfully repelled the invasion of the Broken Bone Tribe, at the cost of 3,000 men. With the help of Behringer, the former duke, Edmund was not only not punished, but was also awarded a three-leaf medal.

The task of collecting seven crystal balls of true knowledge has been completed by one-seventh of them.

In order to find the remaining six crystal balls of true knowledge, Yang Jiangong must first manage the territory and develop the army. And this will take a long time.

"My king, we have brought back 600 heads in the damp forest." The guard officer Leon walked into the hall of the lord, and just last night he led the men quietly back to the wet woodland, and retrieved a total of 600 ogre heads.

For a long time.

As a ferocious, aggressive monster.

The ogre possesses a unique transfiguration, a talent that is stored in the strange head of the Zài ogre.

In addition to their dependence on human flesh and blood, ogres love to suck human brains.

A tooth for a tooth, but humans can also use the ogre's brain fluid to concoct a magical transformation potion, or the finest anti-faceting magic water.

This makes each ogre's head worth ten gold coins from the merchants of each trade guild. If you are trafficked to other kingdoms in person, the head of each ogre will triple this price.

"It's a pity we can't bring more loot from the Broken Bone Tribe." Yang Jiangong touched his nose, and secretly felt sorry for not being able to get more ogre heads. "Leon, go find some pack carts. Escorted by 20 Radiant Swordsmen, transport the ogre skulls to the town of Agate on the other side of the Riptide River, and sell them all for ten gold coins each. ”

So far, there are only a few hundred gold coins left in the treasury of the town of Lol Cardin. When he was officially short of money, Yang Jiangong also felt helpless when he gave such an order, and the town of Lorkadan had no port and cargo ships, so he had to sacrifice twice the profit to sell it cheaply in the nearest trading town.

The average life expectancy of human beings in this world is as long as 200 years, and two years can be said to be a long time, or it can be said that cities can pass in a flash.

Two years later, Yang Jiangong made a detailed calculation based on the account book on the table.

The town of Lol Cardan can earn 10,000 gold coins per year from farming and livestock production. Ten years is 100,000, deducting the 50,000 arrears paid back to the Construction Guild, which means that there will be 50,000 gold coins left in this ten years.

In addition, Yang Jiangong's divine warrior, that is, the former Duke of Behringer of the Carmellot Kingdom, he will 'donate' 1,000 gold coins to the Radiant Emperor every month, which is 120,000 in ten years.

50,000 + 120,000 = 170,000 gold coins.

After deducting the 20,000 gold coins, the consumption will not be counted.

In other words, Yang Jiangong can plan the development of Lol Cardan Town in the next ten years according to the 150,000 gold coins.

Yang Jiangong has been in this world for three years, and the Great Glory Space has passed exactly three days. According to the agreement with Cao Feng, it is time to temporarily let go of this qiē and return to the great glory space.

Before the return.

Yang Jiangong's ten-year plan in terms of territory:

[The offer for the construction of the port and the digging of the canal, and the construction of the guild is 50,000 gold coins, which the town of Lol Cardin has to pay. 】

Ten-year plan for the development of the armed forces:

[Train 1 brigade of 300 town guards.] The training time is 1 month, the equipment cost is 500 gold coins, and there is no salary and maintenance. 】

[Train 1 brigade of 300 glorious swordsmen.] The training time is up to 1 year, the equipment cost is 5,000 gold coins, salary plus maintenance: about 10,000 per year, 9 years is 90,000. 】

In any era, the army is the most expensive and indispensable savings, after a few simple plans, Yang Jiangong was injured and didn't even have extra money to get a team of glorious soldiers.

As for the 10,000 gold coins left in hand.

Yang Jiangong Calcium Bahrain used this budget to select a group of teenagers around the age of ten from the town of Lol Kadan, and then spent ten years training them to become knights. With the storage of that batch of imperial armor ring armor and weapons, Yang Jiangong could save money on buying knight equipment.

As for buying more expensive knightly horses from the Riding Club, that was ten years later.

"My king, do you really want to leave?" Catherine's eyes were moist, and her hands gripped the corner of her skirt with all her might. She would love to say take her with her, but that's impossible. The Radiant Emperor is about to return to the divine realm. Legend has it that it is a place where only gods can go.

"Catherine, ten years, will soon pass. I still have important and dangerous things to do, and I'm sorry I can't take you with me. ”

10 days of great glory space is equal to 10 years of this time. So Yang Jiangong didn't mean to exaggerate. "Catherine, you and your father Bahrain have received eternal life. Stay here and wait for me to come back. ”

Catherine's body began to twitch, and tears finally flowed down her face.

With the help of Guò Wei, Yang Jiangong spent 5 glory points for a Glory Banner, and personally gave this 'coordinate' to Catherine. "Take it with you, and one day in the future, I will come to you through its guidance."

After three years of getting along day and night, Yang Jiangong has long been accustomed to this special 'maid'. In the eyes of the people of Lol Cardin, this girl who always looks like she is only fourteen or fifteen years old, she is a woman who only belongs to the Radiant Emperor.

The quiet silence is quietly melting Yang Jiangong's previous knots. He even decided that when he came back, he would try to accept the girl. To this day, he still remembers the scene when he came into this world three years ago, a delicate and thin girl, holding a dagger with a blood groove, looking at the 'statue' obsessively, she hummed as she whispered, and bright red blood gushed out like a fountain......

It's time to leave.

Yang Jiangong closed his eyes and secretly confirmed to Nightmare. Activate the Banner of Glory coordinates next to the ancient well in Room 3 to make sure that the two points are connected in two different spaces. Yang Jiangong's body slowly rose and was suspended in mid-air. When he opened his eyes again, a smile appeared on his face, and his body immediately turned into a faint afterimage.

"The walls of ten zhang are as white as frost."

"The magnificent temple is what our hearts desire."

"In the face of the ancestors, the people of Lol Cardan, swear by blood."

"We're going to come back. Restore the glory of our past! ”

"With our blood and courage, we will eventually rebuild our homeland."

The old priest of Lol Cardin led the people of Lol Cardin to sing the thousand-year-old song of the millennium, the distant and ancient war song of Lol Cardin.

At the end of the war song, a child's voice suddenly sounded, "My king, Achilles sends my king!" ”

Achilles didn't catch up after all, he was still a step slower. I don't know where Achilles came from, but I saw that his trouser legs were rolled up high, and his knees and feet were covered with muddy water, as if he had just gotten up from the mud. Achilles knelt on the ground, looking up at the afterimage that had disappeared in midair, his dark eyes glistening with tears. "My king, Achilles will definitely grow up, and he will not let you down......"

――――――――――――――

Crystal Ball of Radiant Knowledge.

Returning to the Great Glory Space, the night before leaving, no one knew about a scene except Yang Jiangong himself.

When Yang Jiangong touched the crystal ball with his hand, he could sense the distant location of the other six crystal balls in his mind, but he didn't know exactly where it was.

In addition, Yang Jiangong can also perceive many vague and bizarre pictures of this world through this crystal ball:

The dark and dense forests are inhabited by wild beasts and monsters. Mages and dragons are hidden in the deep mountains and lakes, nobles feast and merry in quaint castles, and farmers in the fields look in horror at the clouds and fire on the distant horizon. The hideous-looking werewolves gazed at the pale moon and roared with a thirst for battle, and in the blue sky, the harpies spread their wings and roamed, and the ragged orcs died in the deserted mountains......

However, these images seem to be illuminated in a fog, and due to cultural and linguistic differences, little is known about the lives of other races other than human beings.

"It's a magical world. If human beings on earth are creatures living in a three-dimensional space, then this world is more like a being between three-dimensional and four-dimensional space. ”

Yang Jiangong decided to devote himself to it, not only out of interest in a strange world, but also out of understanding many other cultures. It is true that he believes that the world of multiculturalism is more colorful and interesting.

It's not so much an adventure as it is a gift.
