Chapter 21 Life is like a play, and it all depends on acting skills
Diffused under the faint death aura, the flames and the light of the fighting spirit were intertwined, and some of the blood on the ground had dried up, but more of it was covered with new blood.
"Mine, it's mine!" A mercenary with fiery red hair grabbed a golden crystal ball, and without even determining what it was, he waved the big sword in his hand arrogantly, forcing the mercenaries who surrounded him to retreat like a madman, and was about to take the opportunity to escape, when suddenly a few more figures in front of him made him slightly stunned, and without thinking about it carefully, the red-eyed mercenary frantically chopped the blade in his hand at the other party.
"Bang~"
The figure that appeared out of thin air didn't seem to move, but the burly body of the mercenary who was originally slashing people flew up directly upside down, slammed into the wall fiercely, and the entire chest was sunken, and you could even see the tragic scene of the exploding lung lobes squeezing out of the chest.
The surrounding mercenaries were stunned by the sudden change, looking at the red-haired mercenaries who slowly slipped down the wall, and then looked at the sudden appearance, with a blue face, as if they could burst out at any time to hurt people's beasts, the surrounding mercenaries couldn't help but take a few steps back, and the terrifying aura exuded by the other party's body at this moment made people feel cold.
A Templar watched from afar as Zhuo Ao's group, who appeared almost at the same time as them, and tried to step forward, but was stopped by the white archbishop's outstretched hand.
"Let's go." Looking at the crystal ball in his hand, Zhuo Ao frowned, turned his head to look at the Holy See and the other three families who were also looking at him with scrutinizing eyes, Zhuo Ao snorted lightly, and strode towards the outside of the castle with a few snow elves and Xiao Zhao. For this scene, they practiced for three days. Naturally, there will be no flaws.
"It's not him." Shaking his head, the white-clothed archbishop looked at the other three families and smiled, "I didn't expect this time. In the end, it was the Golden Family who became the winner, and when Mr. Joel came out, he would congratulate me on his behalf. ”
The leaders of the other three major families turned dark when they heard this, congratulations, when they chased and killed Joel, they were the most murderous of this old guy, and he could still say such things with a cheeky face.
The Holy See didn't stay long, and after a slight greeting, they walked straight out with the remaining Templars. Joel got the divine source, and it was only a matter of time before he refined the artifact, and once he came out, Joel with the artifact in hand was not something the three of them could afford to mess with.
The other three families also had some helpless greetings for a while, and then quickly left the Castle of the Dead, they had the same concerns as the white cardinal, worried that Joel would settle accounts after the autumn, and the holy master with the artifact in his hand could be called invincible in the same level. In the ice and snow space before, everyone killed the Golden Family Joel and the following, and even Joel was beaten half to death, but no one wants to stay here at this moment.
"Although the crisis has been lifted for the time being. However, I would advise you not to let the outside world know that you have obtained the artifact. "Death Mountains, among a tribe of snow elves, Zhuo Ao took the fruit wine handed by Celine. Said to Sheller, who was still wrapped in his cloak.
"Hmm." Shellaire nodded silently: "On behalf of the entire Snow Elf Clan, Shellaire thanks the Lord Lord for his kindness, in the future." You are our Snow Elf friend, if anything. As long as we snow elves can do what we can, even if we fight for life, we will not hesitate. ”
"It doesn't need to be that serious." Zhuo Ao smiled slightly, looked at Shellaire and said, "But there is a small request." ”
"Your Excellency, please command." Shellaire bowed slightly.
"Don't be so serious, actually, I'd love to see what you really look like." Looking at Shellaire, Zhuo Ao was a little curious, along the way, even if he ate, Shellair would take off his towel to eat with everyone on his back.
"Do you have to see it, Lord Lord?" After a brief silence, Shellaire's voice was a little low.
"If there's anything taboo, don't use it, it's just just curiosity." Feeling that the faces of several snow elves suddenly became solemn, Zhuo Ao waved his hand and said, this is completely the man's curiosity about the mysterious woman.
"Actually, there are no taboos." Shaking her head, Shellair gently lifted the cloak that had been covering her head, her silver-white hair falling like a waterfall, and the face towel slid down with her movements......
Coming out of the snow elf tribe, Zhuo Ao was still a little distracted.
"Isn't Miss Shellaire beautiful?" Xiao Zhao frowned his nose, looked at Zhuo Ao with a dejected face, and pinched the soft flesh on his waist.
Zhuo Ao, who came back to his senses, looked at Xiao Zhao with a gambled face, and said with a smile: "Jealous? ”
"Nope." Xiao Zhao said goodbye.
"Beautiful, but not as real as you, it makes people feel very illusory, like a dream, as if it will be broken with a slight poke, unlike you, so that I can feel your existence, it belongs to me alone." Zhuo Ao shook his head with a smile and sighed, the moment Shellair took off his scarf, he really thought he had seen the legendary goddess.
"Hmph, it turns out that Xianggong will do this." Xiao Zhao pursed his lips, but the smile in the corner of his eyes couldn't be hidden, and he gently hugged Zhuo Ao's arm and said, "Husband, when are we going to go to the new world?" ”
"After a while." Zhuo Ao said with a smile, this time the Valley of the Dead has been gone, and the receipt is good, just Echo Valley was killed by himself Nine Sacred Domain powerhouses, plus Joel also died in his own hands, a holy master, enough to contribute 5,000 soul power and 50,000 summon points to himself, can appropriately expand the scale of the castle guards, and he also needs to properly add some talents to the castle, with only Gloria alone, gradually there is a little insufficient manpower.
"Don't worry, I'll bring you this time." Looking at Xiao Zhao's expectant look, Zhuo Ao said with a smile, this time, he is ready to enter a world suitable for innate powerhouses, and Xiao Zhao's ability should no longer be restricted.
When the sky darkened, Zhuo Ao released Ren Tingting and the Huoyun Evil God, and now the large summoning space is occupied by a group of desperate banshees, looking a little unappetizing, but if it is thrown away like this, some are unwilling, the battle in the Valley of the Dead has fully proved that these undead creatures whose strength is not high can exert the attack power that even the Holy Master is helpless under certain circumstances, if it is not for the fact that the Echo Wall is not strong enough, even if they can't kill the four Holy Masters, they can also completely become the commander of the light pole.
Keep it, and when the big summoning space is bigger in the future, find a place to throw them in, and save it from being an eyesore.
On the way back, you can still see a lot of undead mercenaries rushing towards the Valley of the Dead, in this regard, Zhuo Ao did not remind, people die for money, birds die for food, at this time, for these mercenaries with the dream of making a fortune, any kind reminder is useless, and may even cause their hostility, after several worlds, for human nature, Zhuo Ao has gradually seen a lot more thoroughly, the more he sees through, the more he sees it, it is a sophistication and selfishness in front of people, people in a complex environment, the first thing to learn, It's about protecting yourself.
Naturally, there is no need to rush too much on the way back, this is on the periphery of the Death Mountains, and for everyone, there is basically no danger, so they traveled all the way to the mountains and rivers, and only returned to Punk Town after half a month.
According to Xu Da, who stayed in Punk Town, the Holy See and the people of the three major families had left three days ago, which also made Zhuo Ao slightly relieved, at least at this time, he didn't want to have too much intersection with the top forces of these continents, of course, Jet's death may not be over, then the other three families may not have any good intentions towards themselves, this news was revealed, the descendants of the Golden Family died here, and in the end, I am afraid that they will inevitably come to the door for criticism, but at that time, Zhuo Ao may not be really afraid of them.
With the departure of a large number of mercenaries, during this time, the security of Punk Town has improved a lot, and the major factories and shops have reopened after the last strike, and the previous harmonious scene has returned.
As a lord, the soldiers of the Zhuo Ao Party were incompetent, and since moving into the castle, they rarely asked about the people's livelihood, but they maintained close contact with several foreign leaders.
I don't know if there is such a thing as luck in the other world, but Zhuo Ao is still ready to give it a try, so in the next few days, he spent most of the time with Gloria discussing the economic structure model of Punk Town and the future development direction.
Punk Town is a natural resource-based city, but Zhuo Ao does not think that such a structure is reasonable, Punk Town's resources are sold from here in a primitive state, but according to the survey, after these resources are shipped out, a little processing, can be resold to obtain a hundredfold profit, which is why Punk Town can attract a large number of merchants to come.
The resources will be dug up one day, and when the resources are exhausted, there will be no abundant resources, and the punk town will become a real poor country, such an economic structure system, in fact, it is very dangerous, but fortunately, now the punk town is still abundant, as long as you plan, at the same time, there is a plan to mine, and slowly establish your own economic system belonging to the punk town, at that time, you don't have to worry about sitting on the mountain, and it is also the first step for the punk town to really prosper.
These things cannot be completed in one step, and in the hands of Zhuo Ao, there are no outstanding talents in this area at present, Old Jack does not have this ability, Gloria is good at management and planning, but if it is said to manipulate the economy, there is no talent in this area.
Zhuo Ao specially summoned a special talent, Shen Wansan, Zhuo Ao is ready to help him establish a chamber of commerce, plus some modern business ideas, to establish a chamber of commerce belonging to Punk Town.
However, the Chamber of Commerce wants to be established, and the current Punk Town is not enough in terms of connections and strength, and there is no way to expand the path outward, and at present, it can only start with some simple taverns and inns, and at the same time, let Shen Wansan practice his hands, adapt to the business rules of this world, and then wait for Zhuo Ao to have enough strength in his hands, and start to expand step by step.
