Chapter Twenty-Four, Chapter Twenty-Five, Chapter Twenty-Six: Happiness and the Elven Traitor
He came from a human tribe, he was originally a hunter of this tribe, and when he returned to the tribe during a hunt, he found that there was no one in the tribe, only stumps and severed arms...... The ones that are eaten, and they are systematically, arranged to be slaughtered and eaten one by one, and eaten by a passing army or tribe......
At that time, he was scared out of illness, and he had a low-grade fever in the wild for several days, and he couldn't sleep well at night, but because of this, he gradually gained wisdom, and some knowledge, information, pictures, voices, etc. often flashed in his mind, so that he couldn't figure out what those were, but with wisdom, he would no longer run around in the wild, but learned to investigate, know how to see the dangers around him, and know how to wander to places with a lot of food。
In this way, he found the refugee camp of the elves, and he was very frightened at first, because in his consciousness, the aliens are all terrifying monsters, monsters that can eat people, and they can't resist, these humans are probably being kept in captivity and waiting to be eaten.
Then when he was about to escape, he happened to see an elf convoy delivering food, and then the humans in this refugee camp were all swarming, they would naturally be kicked and beaten by the elf guards, but these kicked and beaten humans were not killed, and there was a lot of food, much more than a hungry meal in the wild, so he stopped holding back his fear, and observed in the wild for at least five days, during which he ate some weed roots and the like, and when he was sure that these humans would really not be killed and eaten, and he couldn't hold on anymore, then he walked to this refugee camp......
Now, he is a non-commissioned officer assigned by Hao, and he is conscientious to complete everything Hao has assigned, and his actions are like this, psychologically speaking, he really admires Hao.
It is precisely because of their wisdom that they know how terrible everything they have encountered after the destruction of the refugee camp, it is a catastrophe that is enough to completely destroy any human tribe, and even those alien races may not be able to survive the catastrophe, but under the leadership of Hao, they still have so many people alive to come here.
He himself is a human being, and he has come into contact with many human beings and seen many human beings, but he has never seen such a human being as intelligent as Ru Hao, so far-sighted, so capable of action and execution, such a person...... Could it really be human?
This is a common idea of all intelligent humans, and even those elves, and it has been proven too much along the way, especially this great victory over the Jianxi Demon Beast Group, which made everyone feel that Hao is omnipotent.
And Hao, who is "omnipotent", is frowning at a large number of "bills" on the muddy ground at the moment.
Six days have passed since the elimination of the Jairwood Beast herd, during which Hao has taken over all the people left behind, and at the same time, he also led the personnel to sort out the number of spirit stones at the bottom of this nest, the easiest part to dig is about 37,000, and some are slightly more difficult, but they are not buried deeply, this part is about 20,000, and the remaining about 40,000 to 50,000 are not easy to excavate, in other words, the total number of spirit stones they can obtain is almost between 55,000 and 60,000.
This is a huge amount of money, there is no doubt that in any alliance, any empire, any race, this is a huge amount of money for an individual, but the premise is for an individual, yes, for an individual, this huge amount of money can allow a person to live a decent life for a hundred years or even longer, and can make a magician from an apprentice to a high-level magician, which is really a huge amount of money.
But just for the collective, this money is insignificant, let's talk about Ae's family, the annual income flow is around several million spirit stones, this is just a middle and high-level family in the Elf Empire, if it is that kind of top power, it may be hundreds of millions of spirit stones a year, and billions of spirit stones are possible.
Hao calculated all the current personnel, so far there are more than 500 people, among which the human women and children are not consumed much for the time being, at most they buy some books for education, but the consumption of the rest of the people is large, Hao intends to equip all adult males, including the elves, with a complete set of weapons, the spear is okay, the spear array is suitable, but the leather armor is not very good, in fact, he wants scale armor, this defensive type is much better, and it is good for long-range defense, and then configure a short weapon, equipped with a crossbow, it is best to configure a mount per person, it doesn't need to be good, and even a combat mount is not needed, as long as you can hurry quickly......
Just this counts, there are absolutely no five thousand spirit stones to fight, and then there is Ey, although Hao only said that he gave Ai three thousand spirit stones, but these three thousand spirit stones are actually absorbed and absorbed by Ai Yi on weekdays, and when it comes to the Plant Alliance, the things that are just configured with Ai Yi are frighteningly expensive, first of all, you must not waste Ae's magic potion knowledge, which can save lives at many critical moments, and it is to save the lives of the group, such as this time against the Jairus beast herd, if there is a burning bottle or a blasting bottle, then he doesn't have to bury the explosive bag and delay for so long, if there is tear gas, or poisonous fog, then there is no need to burn those damp branches and the like, one or two bottles can solve the problem, and even many more useful potions, on the battlefield, after the war to the wounded, etc., this is a set of knowledge system that is not inferior to magic.
Then there is the consumption of Ay to become a high-level magician, and various medicinal materials that need to stabilize her magic and mental power, plus she estimates that she will have to exchange for some magic spells, so that all kinds of equipment for magic potions, magic herbs or minerals required for magic potions, the exchange of magic spells, and the exchange of various medicinal materials for high-level magicians, plus she also needs to buy a batch of precious minerals to make a few magic wonders for Ae...... These add up, I'm afraid it will take 20,000 to 20,000 five spirit stones, which is still a saving algorithm.
But these are necessary to spend, a high-level magician, whose status in some small alliances can directly become a natural noble, choose any territory that is not owned to become their own territory, and even the alliance government will lick its face to build a magic tower, a high-level magician means that he has mastered many super magic skills, such as magic constancy and the like, and with wide-area magic, in many races, high-level magicians are strategic forces.
If their team had a high-level magician, those Jairus they encountered this time would not dare to step forward at all, Ay only needed to release his magic power, and even the third-order Jairus would only dare to retreat, and the Master was not joking.
Therefore, for Hao, Aiyi, who has signed the master-servant contract, is the top priority of his cultivation, and its importance is even much higher than that of himself, almost second only to the question of Legacy.
In addition to Aid, Anyang is also the focus of Hao's training, as the only two transcendents in the team, although it is a combat transcendent, but the transcendent profession is rare and rare, a combat transcendent, in those adventurer teams can be regarded as the backbone of the core, and even the head of the regiment is possible, and Anyang's career path is a sword and shield guard, at the same time, as an extraordinary professional cultivated by the Ai family, she has also learned a variety of combat skills, Hao's training hope for her is that she will be transferred to a two-handed swordsman in the second order, and advanced to an elf sword dancer in the third order, which is a sharp weapon for individual battles, and it is also a harvesting machine in team battles, although it is not as strong as the sword and shield guard, but it is one-on-one, an Elven Sword Dancer can slash an approaching Transcendent into shreds in a matter of seconds, provided they have a high-level magic weapon......
“...... Anyang needs two magic weapons, even high-level magic weapons...... But it's too expensive, too expensive......"
Hao Nian muttered and shook his head, in the field of magic instruments, the first-order magic tools are called enchanted weapons, the second-order are generally called magic weapons, and the third-order is high-level magic weapons, which is already almost ninety-nine percent of the top that transcendent professions can get, and then it is called legendary weapons, legendary armor, and legendary strange things, which are things that even legendary magicians, and even demigod magicians, need to spend a huge amount of money and materials to create, basically impossible to circulate in the market, and generally exist as a collection of great nobles, or the bottom of the pressure box of great forces。
According to the price of the elf clan that Hao knows, the price of a first-order enchanted weapon is almost between one hundred and three hundred spirit stones, which depends on what the specific enchantment is, as well as the quality and size of the weapon, etc., and the price of the enchanted spear tip that Hao has is almost one hundred to one hundred and fifty spirit stones, which is a lot of money, and even a strong human slave may not even need a spirit stone, and the unknown magician gave it to him at the beginning......
Hao shook his head, dispersing the thoughts, and then he continued to open the book and write.
The price of first-order enchanted weapons is almost like this, but from the second order, the price of magic weapons is a geometric multiplier, and the most ordinary magic weapon needs almost one thousand to five thousand spirit stones, which also depends on what the enchanted magic is, some special second-order magic is not what any magician will, if it is a fine magic weapon, it is possible to consume tens of thousands of spirit stones, as for high-level magic weapons, less than 50,000 spirit stones, it is directly fake......
This price is too expensive, at most you can only buy two magic weapons for Anyang, which still needs to be negotiated and selected well, as for the armor...... Enchanted armor is actually fine, magic armor or something...... It's too expensive......
Then put aside everyone's equipment, as well as necessities, at least 40,000 or so are needed here, and there is not much money left, and it is also necessary to buy food, supplies, repair weapons, etc., and after arriving at the Plant Alliance, it is impossible for so many people not to have a station, whether it is temporary or long-term, this is another expenditure, and at the same time, some must be set aside as an emergency reserve, and at the same time, some must be set aside to do business and make money with money......
No matter how you calculate it, the money is not enough, and the "omnipotent" Hao Ke can't get money out of thin air, even if he wants to rob it, who can he rob in this wilderness?
But no matter what, the process of counting money in front of me is a kind of moan of happiness, Hao himself thinks so, their group escaped from the disaster, and met the relics of the Venerable, and then met the group of demonic beasts, and everything has survived, and then only need to wait for the flood to recede, go to the Plant Alliance, and gain a firm foothold there, then the future is really promising.
Especially when Hao thought of the legacy of that Venerable, he felt that there was a flame in his heart, if he could enlighten the legacy of that Venerable, not to mention that he could become a big man like that Venerable, but at least he could protect the people around him, from the side and from afar, he could shelter more human beings, and at the same time, with strength, there was no need to choose......
In the next few days, Hao divided the clan into two parts, one part was responsible for continuing to bake and smoke the meat, and the other part was led by him to run to the ground to dig, and Ay in order to take care of "her" wealth, also followed to the ground all day long, guarding these spirit stones all the time, and in her words, a large part of these spirit stones are hers, and the aura here is much stronger than outside, anyway, she is going to follow.
Hao is also dispensable for this, just let her go, and then a few days later, he keenly found that Ai Yi was in a daze in a corner, for two consecutive days, this is abnormal, Hao at the end of the day's excavation, he came directly to Ai Yi, and asked Ai Yi: "Did you find anything? I see that you have been in a daze in that corner for the past two days." ”
Ai Yi was stunned for a moment, then thought of Hao's terrifying perception, and did not hide it at the moment, so he said directly: "I suspect that this spirit stone vein may be connected to the underground, and the generation of these spirit stone veins may be related to the leaking aura underground." ”
Hao didn't care about it before, because no matter what Ai Yi found, even if it was a good thing, it was also collective, and at most he would give him some compensation, but as soon as he heard this, he immediately frowned, and asked urgently: "Underground!?
Ay immediately raised his eyebrows and said, "What are you talking about, am I still joking, no matter how much I joke, I won't joke about this kind of thing, okay!?"
Hao stopped talking for a while, his brows were furrowed, and he didn't know how many things he thought about for a while.
The so-called underground does not only refer to the physical underground, no, it is indeed physically, but it may take at least hundreds of thousands of meters to dig down to reach the underground, and the underground here actually refers to the semi-lower plane world.
The Flood Desolate Continent is a world with a round sky, vast and boundless, endless, the sky does not know its height, the earth does not know its thickness, and on the whole, the Flood Desolate Continent also basically follows the basic rules of the multiverse, the most important point is that the clear rises, the turbid sinks, which in the occult is the so-called high dimension and low latitude, such as the holy gods, the prayers of their various races are generally to hold the throne high, rise to the sky, turn into stars, or wish the gods the kingdom on the earth, like the heavens and the like, generally speaking, the high latitude is upward, and the top of the sky of the Flood Desolation Continent is closer to the high latitude。
Similarly, the deepest underground of the Flood Desolation Continent is also the closest place to the low latitude of the entire Flood Desolation Continent, although it is not like the lower plane such as the abyss, hell, and underworld, but it also belongs to the place affected by the low latitude, belonging to the semi-lower plane, and the surface of the Flood Desolate Continent In addition to the physical distance, there are also differences in space and latitude, so all races in the underground world are generally bloodthirsty and murderous, and at the same time, in the underground world, the probability of strange situations is much greater than that of the surface world.
Although the races of the underworld are also considered to be one of the ten thousand races, they generally have some characteristics of the lower plane races, even if it is a sub-clan of a certain surface race, such as the dwarf race in the surface world, the deep dwarf in the underground world, the elven race in the surface world, the drow elf in the underground world, and so on.
It is precisely because the underground world is affected by low latitudes and has the characteristics of creatures in the lower planes, so even if they are considered to be ten thousand races, but their ferocity is much stronger than the races of the surface world, almost second only to the lower plane biota, and occasionally the passage of the underground world appears on the surface, which will definitely trigger a crazy bloodthirsty feast, and the underground races will swarm out and come to the surface to plunder everywhere, looting slaves, sacrifices, blood food, etc., which will generally cause a regional catastrophe, and it is necessary to gather the power of several alliances to suppress it。
In the books that Hao saw, during the First Great War of All Races, the surface world at that time almost fell, gathering almost all the top ten races, as well as most of the strong races, which barely supported it, and the war that led to the almost fall of the surface world was that many forces in the lower plane gathered, burned the ancient tree of life first, and then killed and plundered everywhere, the main force of the lower plane of this war was demons, devils and other creatures, but the underground races also assisted the demons and devils in this war, causing great damage, and afterwards when the demons and other lower plane creatures were expelled, these underground races still killed in the surface world for a long time, and was not completely expelled back to the ground until almost the eve of the end of the Great War of the Nations.
Hao thought of the current situation of the Elven Empire, hated by many races of the Ten Thousand Races, the underworld camp of the lower plane has descended, and participated in the siege of the Elf Race, coupled with the division within the Elf Race, the Drow Goddess under the bottomless abyss has also returned...... All of this undoubtedly foreshadows the entry of the lower planes, the underworld, into the war, and their first target is the elves......
This is the border line of the elven empire, Hao never believes that the elves have not used magic to scan its perimeter, and it is estimated that it is scanned back and forth according to a fixed law, searching back and forth to determine the safety of the border, and here there is a connection channel of the underground world, and looking at the formation time of this spirit stone, I am afraid that it has been hundreds of years here, and the elves have not found this connection channel for hundreds of years, what does this mean is already obvious......
Hundreds of years ago, there were traitors within the elves, and there were already high-level believers in the elves who were believers in the goddess of Drow, and since then, it is estimated that there has been a conspiracy hidden, hundreds of years of hiding, this is not a short-term information masking, to achieve such a thing, then at least it must be a holy god, and maybe even ......
Hao looked at the sky with deep eyes, the direction over there is the direction of the Elven Empire, perhaps, the Plant Alliance is not safe......
And inside the Elven Empire, near the capital of the Elven Empire, there were two figures hidden in the sky, watching, each other was silent.
After a long time, one of them, who was dark-skinned but not in the form of a child like a dark elf, but a plump woman like a light elf, said in an unusually seductive tone: "Sister, is this the wife of that one? ”
Next to her was a standard dark elf, she was just silent, and the plump woman with dark skin grinned, "What's the matter? Are you still hesitating? You've betrayed our sister for hundreds of years, what's wrong?
The dark elf was silent for a long time before sighing: " I can't bear it, but it's more of a sigh, I think at the beginning, the three of us struggled to survive, supported each other, the eldest sister was the first to sublimate into a saint, and then the two of us, step by step in the war of ten thousand races, and even had to sell our bodies to serve the big clan, at that time, the three of us received the luck of the elf clan, and after that, the three of us became high-level saints, I thought that our three sisters could always love each other like this and support each other forever, but who knows......"
The plump dark elf who had been laughing gradually put away her smile, she sighed and said: "To be honest, I still don't know why you betrayed the eldest sister, as a clan clan, this status is so respectful, why would you want to save me, the polluted sister?"
The dark elf's eyes became sharp, she looked down and said: "Because my sister is too soft-hearted, she has been like this many times in the past, and I think she is crazy, maybe more serious than your pollution, she told me again and again that human beings will inevitably become the protagonists of the multiverse in the future, but how is this possible, and she has made very strange decisions every time...... I don't know, I don't know why I betrayed my sister, but I had a feeling that I had to do this, I had to do it...... Including this complete determination to pull you out of the abyss and send my sister into the River Styx, I have to do it. ”
The plump dark elf frowned, she looked at the dark elf for a long time, and then said meaningfully: "...... Sometimes, don't trust your feelings and instincts too much, my sister, and sometimes the truth of the matter tends to make you desperate......"
Then she smiled and said: "But that's it, anyway, it's me who benefits, now the elves are in my control, peace is slackness, the elves have been peaceful for too long, they have forgotten that our elves are from suffering, from the flames of the mother tree of life and the blood of the enemy, they need to arm themselves with battle, they need hatred to temper their spirits, they need conspiracy to strengthen their means...... Let the elves vendetta against each other, let them remember the past of the elves, as long as they are not discovered, then any means can be used, and then worship the gods, choose innocents to be sacrifices, whether it is their blood, or the blood of the enemy, we will like it, let them raid the surroundings, all non-elves are our enemies, of course, the strong have the privilege to serve the strong, and then kill the strong with the dagger behind their backs, and plunder everything from them. ”
"And then there's you...... Illuvita, blood of my blood, descendants of my descendants, descendants of my descendants, serve the Lord of the Void, serve the Lord of the Void with your soul, your body, all that you have, and the Lord will be satisfied with the reward and then ...... I really hope to see your husband's expression when he comes out of the low latitude, his expression must be green, right? hahahahaha......"
The plump dark elf laughed like crazy, and blood appeared around her, and the dark elf looked at her with crazy eyes, and said seriously: "I regret it now, you are really crazy, forget about the others, anyway, we can recreate the elf clan at any time, but she is different, her husband ...... But that man, the man who can't even mention his name, do you know what you're just talking about? Not to mention the Void King, even the lowest void in the abyss has turned into a consciousness body, and you definitely don't dare to face that man, do you want our elves to be completely wiped out? Together with you and me, we have been hung on the city wall for a thousand years, ten thousand years, until eternity!? I tell you again seriously, he will return, sooner or later, you are really crazy!!"
"yes, I'm crazy!" the plump dark elf roared loudly, she began to tear the skin of her face and shoulders with her nails, tearing off layers of golden-black flesh and blood droplets, she roared madly: "Since being betrayed by my most trusted sister and sister, since falling to the lower plane, since being abused by demons and devils in every way, since being played with by the Void Lord for hundreds of millions of years, how can I not be crazy!? I just want to give this slut to the Void Lord, why can she marry such a hero, why is even that heroic man pulled into a low latitude, the whole flood has to look at her face and face, why can she be safely sublimated to sainthood, why can she be safely sublimated to sainthood, why on what basis!"
"O Void Lord, I will definitely serve you this most delicious ......"
Suddenly, at the back of this plump dark elf, a vast and boundless dark void consciousness flashed violently, although it was only a flash, and there was a thunderbolt between heaven and earth, scattering this vast void consciousness, but it was just such a flash, and the plump dark elf blew up its head, and the whole head was blown to pieces, and this power has been spreading upwards and deep into the high latitudes.
A few seconds later, the plump dark elf healed and regained its form, but a huge pain came from the high latitudes, making her tremble all at once.
The dark elf sneered and said: "It seems that the master behind you still has self-knowledge, what can be provoked and what cannot be provoked, they know better than anyone else, I repeat, nothing else, I need your iron blood and conspiracy to let the elves survive this war of all races, but she can't, she is the exception, protect her, let her, don't ......"
At this time, the plump dark elf should have suffered a great pain, but she didn't want her to moan with a flushed face, and her whole body writhed, the whole person was like a loach, the dark elf was dumbfounded, and she didn't even know how to say it for a while, and after a long time, she said: "You're really crazy, really crazy, I'm crazy too...... What the hell is wrong with me, why did I betray you like an idiot and summon you back, I ...... Is it also polluted?"
The plump dark elf laughed in a frenzied manner, and her eyes were full of hatred and madness as she watched Iluvita ascend to the holy pillar......
