Chapter 140: Mengshan Caravan
With the help of the Gathering Demon Star Stone Necklace, Lin Hao spent two days completely recovering his magic energy.
This time the corpse tide hit the city, although the Star Demon Shield was destroyed, Lin Hao also gained a lot.
One was the gray stone that glowed white, and the other was the Blade Butcher's bone sickle, and the magic stones of the five ghost-faced giant corpses. In addition to these, Ye Dahai also divided half of the magic stones dug up from the dead jumping armor corpse and bone corpse to Lin Hao.
Lin Hao made a great contribution in this battle to defend the city, originally Ye Dahai wanted to give all the magic stones to Lin Hao. However, thousands of people in the city have to be fed, and all expenses have to be paid.
Paper money and gold before the end of the world are no longer good, and magic stones are the real hard currency. This time, Ye Dahai led the people to collect a total of more than 8,000 magic stones.
In order to how to distribute the more than 8,000 magic stones, Ye Dahai was worried. In desperation, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say his thoughts and difficulties. Lin Hao also agreed with Ye Dahai's approach. After all, the battle to defend the city was not the credit of him Lin Hao alone.
For Lin Hao's open-mindedness, Ye Dahai admired it.
The current Lin Hao can be said to be a god-like existence in Yangshan New Town, and his prestige is very high. In this kind of situation where he has great power and prestige, he is not arrogant, and he can maintain an indifferent mentality, in Ye Dahai's opinion, it is not something that ordinary people can do. It can be said that Lin Hao's future prospects are limitless.
Lin Hao calculated an account, in addition to the magic stones consumed by refining the magic beads and thunder seals, Lin Hao himself still had three thousand magic stones. Coupled with the four thousand magic stones that Ye Dahai gave him, plus the two thousand five hundred magic stones of the five giant corpses, Lin Hao now has nine thousand five hundred magic stones, which is simply a rich man.
At the exchange price at the beginning of the end of the world, one magic stone can be exchanged for a pound of meat. Fifty pounds of meat can find a middle-to-upper-looking woman to spend the night. One hundred pounds is the school flower beauty. 300 catties of meat, that is, 300 magic stones, Lin Hao can go to Yunyu with a star-level beauty.
Why do you use beauties for exchange and comparison, because even if Lin Hao has nine thousand five hundred magic stones, he can't exchange them for so much food. Because at the beginning of the last days, there was a great shortage of food, and no one could make such a large transaction. But beauties are different. Beauty is a consumer product, and as long as it is properly maintained, it will not wear out, and it can be reused.
However, this is the price of the early end times. A year later, due to the appearance of a large number of demon warriors, as well as the continuous annexation and strengthening of various warbands, the ability of humans to obtain magic stones was strengthened, which led to the inflation of magic stones. By the time Lin Hao was reunited, the price of a young girl at the school flower level had risen to 500 magic stones, which was just like a robbery.
Lin Hao couldn't figure it out at that time, 500 magic stones were enough to go to the Black Stone Altar to sacrifice five times. However, now that Lin Hao has become a demon warrior, he has figured it out.
After three years, the Black Stone Altar is no longer worthy of any demon warrior. Because, the things obtained from the altar are obviously too low-level for the demon warriors above the intermediate level, and most of the magic tools and spells sacrificed can be bought on the market.
For example, Space Bracelets, Gathering Star Stones, Enchanting Tools, various beginner spells, and magical potions can all be bought or exchanged at auction. Some of the big consortia of chambers of commerce also mass-produced pills to improve their physique and increase their magic energy, as well as some low-level magic tools, so they also grabbed a lot of wealth.
No matter what the future holds, now Lin Hao has become a nouveau riche tyrant with the advantage of rebirth. If he was a person with no ambitions, with his current financial resources and magic energy level, he could completely find a place to take Liu Xiaodao and the others to live in seclusion. It doesn't matter what his world will become, life is only a few decades, and it is better to be happy in time. Anyway, when the sky falls, there is a high top, so why bother with yourself.
Actually, Lin Hao didn't think about it this way. However, this idea was quickly dispelled. Since you are reborn, how can you not create a career, wouldn't it be in vain to be blind to this rebirth. Moreover, this is an era of demonic martial arts, and all kinds of strange things emerge one after another.
The appearance of demon warriors, ghost warriors, evil spirits, bone corpses, and various mutated creatures is dazzling. Even if you live in seclusion, you will be able to escape the intrusion of these forces. Especially after mastering the magical power, the magical power is fascinating, and makes people yearn to become more powerful, eager to explore the limits of this mysterious power.
After recovering his magical energy, Lin Hao first used the Heavenly Craftsman Technique to recreate his Flame Blade.
The Flame Whirlwind Slash is powerful and can inflict massive casualties on dense targets. In order to increase the power of the "Flame Whirlwind Slash", Lin Hao created a new version of the "Flame Blade" that is more suitable for the wind magic skill "Wind Scroll".
The length of the entire blade reached one and a half meters, which was larger and heavier than before. The shape of the blade has also changed, and the overall shape is S-shaped, similar to the ancient Persian scimitar.
Lin Hao also added serrations to the blade, so that the blade can better cut objects during rotation. In addition to the material of the knife, the blade of the blade becomes harder and sharper by adding fragments of the bone sickle.
Lin Hao tried it and found that the effect was very good.
Subsequently, Lin Hao used the remaining bone scythe fragments to refine the material ball.
A lot of magic energy was wasted, and the new material ball finally took shape.
Lin Hao couldn't wait to map Su Ya's spiritual imprint onto the new material ball, waiting for an even more powerful Su Ya to appear. But to his surprise, he tried many times, but without success.
Looking at the white material ball on the ground, Lin Hao was a little puzzled by how this situation could occur.
After thinking about it, he felt that the most likely reason was that his mental power was not strong enough.
Since there were a lot of bone sickle materials, Lin Hao fused and strengthened all the weapons of Liu Xiaodao, Zhao Daheng, Zhou Qian, and Xiao Yutong, and made an arm shield for each of them. The Bone Scythe can split the fireball of the magic bead without damage, so it can be seen that the arm shield made of the bone scythe should be more than enough to block the beginner magic skills.
Lin Hao took the made arm shield and tested it, and the defense effect was good.
After all these things were done, Lin Hao began to study the gray stone blocks he had obtained from the giant corpse.
Lin Hao took the stone in his hand and looked at it carefully, and found that from the outside, this stone was nothing special except for a faint white light.
However, there is one thing that is very strange, that is, this stone cannot be placed in the space ring. Lin Hao thought about it for a long time, but he didn't understand the reason. Since he couldn't figure it out, Lin Hao didn't think about it anymore.
Time flies, and a week has passed in the blink of an eye.
When the corpse tide besieged the city, Lin Hao never saw the figure of Four Eyes, and he was very worried about the safety of Four Eyes, and he didn't know if it had escaped the corpse tide. Ten days had passed since the tide of corpses receded, and he still hadn't seen the figure of Four Eyes.
In the past two days, Ye Dahai, Liu Xiaodao and others have been asking Lin Hao about his next plans, but Lin Hao just said that he hadn't thought about it yet. He had been waiting, waiting for a caravan to arrive. Today, the caravan he was waiting for finally arrived.
At noon, a caravan of forty people appeared in Yangshan New Town. This caravan came from the Mengshan Warband, and it was here to exchange items. This caravan is exactly what Lin Hao has been waiting for for so many days.
In the previous life, this caravan passed through Yangshan New Town after the first corpse tide. It's just that the last wave of corpses was not so large-scale.
Among the forty of them, there were ten demon warriors, and the remaining thirty were all young men with strong bodies.
As soon as these people entered Yangshan New Town, they immediately attracted onlookers from the survivors in the city. In the past, there were also caravans to Yangshan New Town, all of which were caravans from several small counties and small towns nearby that survived the catastrophe.
The members of these caravans were either on motorbikes or on foot, and there was rarely other means of transportation. However, the forty people who came this time were very stylish, and they all rode mutant ostriches about the size of horses.
In addition to the ostriches on their rode, they also had twenty of them. It's no wonder that such a large group of sub-people and mutated ostriches are not eye-catching.
Lin Hao was not surprised to see these mutated ostriches. These mutant ostriches have been domesticated into mounts, indicating that there should be animal trainers in the opposing warband.
A beast tamer is a spiritual demon warrior who knows how to tam beasts.
In fact, animal taming is not a magic skill of a spiritual demon warrior, but a magic skill obtained from sacrificing in the altar.
Beast taming is different from the magic skills of summoning demon warriors, they can only tame mutant beasts that are not very aggressive and have a low level of magic energy. For example, the mutant ostrich is a slave-level mutant beast.
The Mengshan War Regiment is located on the road to the Black Dragon Gorge. In his previous life, Lin Hao was just a squad leader, it would be good to have a full stomach, how dare he want to establish his own base, it is simply a fantasy.
In this life, Lin Hao was already a mid-level demon martial artist, and there was a large amount of food and magic stones in the space ring, which gave him confidence in establishing a base. So after learning about the situation in Heilong Gorge from Liu Chenggong's mouth, he immediately thought of this upcoming caravan.
Lin Hao planned to follow this caravan to Mengshan first, and then to Heilong Gorge. The caravan traveled between Mengshan and Yangshan New Town, and must have a good understanding of the road conditions, and it was safe and time-saving to follow them.
As soon as Lin Hao heard the news of the caravan's arrival, he wanted to go to the leader of the caravan immediately. However, he thought about it, if he went in broad daylight, it was easy to attract the attention of the survivors, and once Ye Dahai and Xiaodao and the others asked, it was not easy to explain. So, after thinking about it, he decided to go over the night.
The Mengshan caravan and some of the caravans that have arrived in recent days are all for a common goal, that is, to exchange magic stones.
After the battle to defend the city, Yangshan New Town was praised by the Northern Theater Command, and put forward the hope that all cities, war groups, and survivor areas would learn the Yangshan spirit of not being afraid of difficulties and sacrifices. And after the person in charge of these areas learned of this news, they immediately sent people to Yangshan New Town, their common purpose was not to learn any spirit, but to exchange for magic stones.
Think about it, nearly 100,000 bones. If it is really repelled by Yangshan New Town, how many magic stones will be left. If they can get enough magic stones, they can go to the altar and make sacrifices, and there is no limit to the number of people who can sacrifice at the altar. Therefore, even the Mengshan War Regiment, which was hundreds of miles away, sent a caravan to Yangshan New Town.
