Chapter 097: Zombie Country
The forsaken land is actually a buffer zone between zombies and dragon humans, and every time a large-scale zombie invasion breaks out, a wave of zombie armies will sweep through this area, so this area is a very dangerous area. Watermark Ad Test Watermark Ad Test
However, there are many things that are quite precious to humans in the Forsaken Lands, such as the precious herbs that make important potions such as Angel's Kiss Elixir and Bone Cleansing Elixir. Another example is the rare ore resources to craft various precious weapons, and even the gold and silver mines in this area are the richest places in the entire empire.
As a result, the survivors of the Forsaken Lands are not many of the hard-working Aborigines. There are also many squads of bounty hunters, caravans of various family backgrounds, and countless gold diggers, miners, and medicine pickers who want to change their fate.
After many people ran here, what escort teams and industries that came here to do food business also came into being. Even all kinds of black markets are blooming here, and there are even many Western humans who come here from thousands of miles to trade with Orientals here.
The Forsaken Land, also known as the Land of Lawlessness, is not a simple place for people to survive, and the relationships behind it are even more complicated.
Xiao Ke originally thought that the steel wheel he formed would be arranged to be stationed in a certain important town and guard the border town.
But I didn't expect His Majesty to plan to arrange the Wheel of Steel to the Land of Lawlessness, and let him try to build a new order there, Xiao Ke smiled a little bitterly in his heart: All kinds of forces in the Land of Lawlessness are mixed, but no one buys the account of the empire, and the fist is the last word here, not to mention the wheel of steel, even if the Imperial Family's Imperial Forest Army goes, it is useless to speak, not to mention the Iron Wheel that has just been formed, and there are only a thousand warriors at present.
Moreover, the land of lawlessness is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, the strong are like clouds, and the strong people in the realm of generals can't walk sideways here, and he, a mere fifth-level general, is not a fart in the land of lawlessness!
Xiao Ke wanted to tell Jiang Ning that this task was too arduous, although Jiang Ning's conditions were very tempting, he felt that he was not up to the task.
However, Xiao Ke has not yet spoken. I noticed that Jiang Ning was squinting his eyes and looking at him with a smile. It seems that Jiang Ning is also testing him, to see if he has the courage and courage?
Obviously, if Xiao Ke refuses, he will inevitably be looked down upon by Jiang Ning, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to get Jiang Ning's reuse in the future.
Xiao Ke had all kinds of thoughts in his mind at this time, and he finally said in a deep voice: "Where Your Majesty's will is, it is where my soldiers are going, since Your Majesty intends to let me lead the Wheel of Steel to the Forsaken Land." Then I'll turn around and set out as a whole army. “
Although Xiao Ke promised to go to the land of lawlessness, he didn't boast, let alone say that he would definitely gain a foothold there, integrate the forces of all parties, and establish a new order.
However, Xiao Ke did not boast, but Jiang Ning appreciated it very much, because Jiang Ning even had this difficult task.
Jiang Ning smiled and said to Xiao Ke, "Xiao Ke." The most important task in your first year is to stand your ground and survive there. The task of establishing a new order will have to be discussed later, but of course, there is one thing you must always keep an eye on and investigate. “
Xiao Ke: "What's the matter, please make it clear to Your Majesty." “
Jiang Ning said: "The annual output of various rare ores, especially black quarte, in the abandoned land is very high. In fact, the production capacity of black crystal in the Forsaken Lands is not so high at all. “
Black spar is the best ore for making top-level weapons now, and Xiao Ke's fierce general is actually a famous craftsman who uses black spar to train into black steel, and then make it into a war knife, this war knife is far more powerful than ordinary war knives.
Xiao Ke asked curiously: "The annual circulation of black quartz in the abandoned land is higher than the local production, where does the extra black quartz come from?" Someone who has been transported here from somewhere else and is here to sell and trade? “
"There is a possibility, but it is unreasonable, because the price of black crystal is the cheapest in the abandoned land, and in the metropolises of Qilin, Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Xuanwu and other metropolises, the price is much higher than in the abandoned land. Merchants usually buy black crystals from the Abandoned Lands and transport them to other metropolises of the empire to sell, buying low and selling high to make money, and there is no reason to buy the goods and transport them to the cheap Abandoned Lands market to sell. “
"So, the black crystals of the Forsaken Lands are coming from a suspicious source?"
"That's right, five of the original ten super metropolises of the empire have fallen, but in the Fall Zone, there are a lot of black crystal veins, and I suspect that many of the black crystals in the Forsaken Land are from the Fall Zone."
When Xiao Ke heard Jiang Ning's words, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and looked at the Fallen Zone on the sand table map, which was now a country of zombies, and few people dared to step into the Fallen Zone, even if a few strong people dared to break in. It would also be impossible to build a mining pit in the occupied area.
After all, digging a pit in the zombie country, when the corpse emperor and tyrants, lords and other super zombies, there are hundreds of millions of zombies that do not exist?
Humans don't have the ability to enter the zombie kingdom to mine. It's impossible for zombies to dig up mines and give them to humans!
Therefore, Xiao Ke couldn't help but say to Jiang Ning: "Your Majesty, isn't your guess a bit too exaggerated?" “
Jiang Ning shook his head: "No." Xiao Ke, you probably don't know yet, high-level zombies already have an IQ equivalent to that of humans. Zombie Lords, Zombie Tyrants, and Corpse Emperors, these top zombies have the same wisdom as human sages. In the occupied area, the zombie civilization has been initially formed, in the high-level zombie group, they can speak, they can enjoy life, there are hierarchical and inferior differences, and even high-level zombies have dreams, that is, to exterminate human beings. They become the new masters of the planet. “
Jiang Ning paused and continued: "The zombies' ambition to dominate the earth, and the fact that they are our natural enemies, don't need me to repeat it with you. But what I want to tell you right now is. Zombie civilization. Zombies have initially formed a civilization that belongs to them, and several corpse emperors occupy different fallen areas and lead various zombie minions. They will also fight with each other, and several corpse emperors want to become the real kings of the fallen area, but now they are still attacking each other. “
Xiao Ke frowned: "If the forces of several corpse emperors are unified, then the zombies that are completely united will truly become a nightmare for our Dragon Kingdom." “
Jiang Ning nodded: "Yes, despite the fact that the zombies still want to be completely unified in advance, there is still a certain degree of difficulty, and we still have the opportunity to completely eliminate them before they are unified." “
Xiao Ke nodded, but immediately said suspiciously: "Does this have anything to do with black crystal?" “
Jiang Ning: "I suspect that someone is trading behind the scenes with zombies, who provide humans with expensive black crystals. “
Xiao Ke was shocked again: "No, humans trade with zombies, zombies are the natural enemies of our humans, and zombies can give humans black crystals, what can humans give zombies?" “
"Blood, even living people!" Jiang Ning clenched his fists: "The border guards loyal to the imperial family have intercepted several batches of goods that have been transported to the abandoned land, these goods are all living people, they are all scavengers, poor people, homeless people, and even civilians who have been secretly arrested. “
Xiao Ke lost his voice: "What? “
Jiang Ning said in a deep voice: "Some people secretly trade with zombies, and trade the captured people as goods with zombies in exchange for expensive black crystals. These caravans that trade with zombies have very mysterious origins, and their abilities are not small, and the imperial family can't find out too much, I suspect that it has something to do with some scholars, and even with the family gate valve. You go to the forsaken land, after you have a firm foothold, investigate this matter first, I will dig out these shameless people who betrayed the empire and betrayed humanity, and punish them severely! “
Xiao Ke straightened his waist and snapped a loud and powerful military salute: "Yes, Your Majesty!" “
