DR3714-4-30, on the last day of April, the spring breeze gently swept the earth, and the thirteenth silver city was lush and vibrant. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the early morning, the thin morning light wakes up the sleeping city, and the young blades of grass are stained with morning dew, and whenever a car passes by, bringing a whirlwind of wind, they sway, like a woman with a weak waist.

At this moment, there was silence in the Temple of Prayer for Rain. Looking around, the main hall is far-reaching and long, and the oil lamps on the stone walls on both sides are emitting a faint firelight, and occasionally a light breeze blows, gently swaying with the flames, making the surrounding environment more strange and mysterious.

"Pedal pedal...... Pedal Pedal ...... Pedaling ......"

In the silence, a crisp sound of iron boots came from far and near, and finally turned into the side hall. Compared with the main hall, the fire here is warm, the furnishings are simple, and the ground is covered with a red carpet painted with gold, which is simple and luxurious, low-key and elegant.

"Sister, Xiaoqing is here." Mu Yuqin's heart bowed slightly, and reported to Mu Yuli's lily of the valley. At this moment, the former is wearing a heavy, light blue power armor, and the power armor has a crescent moon and a silver cross engraved on its chest, which is the second-generation psionic power armor "Moonlight" customized by Notre Dame; The latter, dressed in a wide white silver-rimmed sacrificial robe, wears a crown of silver chains and precious stone pendants, and sits upright on a high-backed chair made of oak wood.

A few months ago, the crown worn by You Ge at the presbyterian meeting was called the Crown of the Queen of the Sun, which was made up of gold chains and pendants of seven colored precious stones, and was modeled after the "crown of the moon god". The only difference between the two is that the metal chain that makes up the main body of the crown is different, the material of the crown of the sun is pure gold, and the material of the crown of the moon god is mythril.

And under the crown of the moon god, there are twelve "small crowns", symbolizing the twelve main gods under the moon god. At this moment, Mu Yu Lily of the Valley is wearing a crown that represents the rain god's "moisturizing all things", and all the gemstone pendants are in the shape of water droplets, as if it is raining.

"Are all the personnel staffed?" Mu Yu Lily of the Valley asked without looking back.

"It's been established, tentatively named the Xinyu Legion, a total of 3,753 people, including two hundred second-order and above and twelve fifth-order and above power armor warriors, the current deputy commander is Spike of Peter's family, Brandon's third great-grandson, the chief of staff is Jiang Wen, Jiang Xiao's fifth brother, and the deputy chief of staff is Colin's second great-grandson...... "Mu Yuqin reported in detail.

"Is Spike obedient?" Mu Yu Lily of the Valley asked.

"Mother used to say that Spike was a devout believer in the rain god and was different from the rest of Peter's family." Mu Yuqin replied in her heart.

"Well, my mother also told me, but ......" Mu Yulian pondered for a while and said, "I still have to send someone to spy on him." ”

"How's little Tommy?" Mu Yu Lily of the Valley asked, little Tommy was the person she had privately introduced to her when she went to Tieshan Town to recruit people last time. He has a third-order psionic talent, is fourteen years old this year, and has fair skin, but because he is too small, he can't wear the standard psionic power armor.

"Iron slag man?" Mu Yu Lily of the Valley turned her head to look at Mu Yuqin's heart and wondered.

"Strictly speaking, it's the old flute." Mu Yuqin said in her heart.

"Why don't you say it's Lena Eucoris's man?" Mu Yu Lily of the Valley asked.

"She's been gone for almost four years." Mu Yuqin replied in her heart.

"Hmm......" Mu Yu Lily of the Valley muttered for a moment and said, "Let him be Spike's orderly." ”

"......If he is a devout believer in the rain god, how can he avoid the rain god's eyes?" "Okay, you're the sister, you have the final say." Mu Yuqin shrugged her shoulders and said.

Mu Yu Lily of the Valley glanced at her, got up and walked to the long table on the side. A large map was spread out on the table, and Mu Yu Lily of the Valley pointed to a clearing about 1,200 km southeast of the Wind Sand Castle and said to her, "This is the final site of the Storm Fortress, you can come and have a look." ”

After looking at the map for a while, Mu Yuqin asked with some puzzlement: "Why are you here?" "From the surroundings, and the location of other fringe forts, it's not an ideal location, it seems too far ahead.

"From now on, we aren't in a good position, and we're vulnerable to being surrounded by swarms, but what if that's the case?" As she spoke, she picked up a piece representing the fortress and placed it on a piece of high ground thirty kilometers southwest of the Storm Fortress.

"But who's going to build a fortress here?" Mu Yuqin asked rhetorically.

"Iron slag~" Mu Yu Lily of the Valley smiled lightly and said.

Mu Yuqin's heart immediately understood her sister's intentions, but after thinking for a while, she was worried again: "Does he have the ability?" ”

"Not before, but when he got the thunder hammer, he should have it." Then, Muyu Lily of the Valley analyzed it in detail.

First of all, the fortresses of the merchant forces are mainly located in the southeast of the Wind Sand Castle, and the Templar power is the farthest away from the Templar power to the northwest of the Wind Sand Castle. If iron slag is to develop in the future, it will definitely participate in the resource competition between the No. 5 Desert and the Mirror Sea through a third-party company.

Secondly, these two fortresses are at the horns of each other, and they can occupy a large area of low-lying land in front of them, and there are already more than 20 proven ore sites around them, as long as they pay enough fees to the Wind Sand Castle Official, they can be mined directly.

However, the only biggest drawback of the fortress is that the southeast side of the Wind Sand Castle is not the defensive area of the Fifth Army of the Dawn Expeditionary Force, and the essence of the merchants is to chase profits. As a result, the merchant forces are scattered among themselves, and if they encounter a large-scale insect influx, the fringe fortresses will be swallowed up due to lack of support. It wasn't until the situation was in shambles that the Dawn Expeditionary Force and the Wind Sand Castle side would send reinforcements.

"What if the slag doesn't come?" Mu Yuqin said in her heart.

"Then we'll talk to the priests of the Starlight Temple." As he spoke, Mu Yu Lily of the Valley pulled and pointed to the No. 9 Silver City, which was located in the center of the Central Continent, Elk City.

A few days later......

A month ago, the Beidou, which set off from Black Alley, crossed the Tianwang Sea and arrived at Haijiao Port, a small port in the southwest of the Far Eastern Continent.

Although Haijiao Harbor is located on the tip of the Far Eastern mainland, it is actually no different from an isolated island. It is separated from the gathering place of the clans of the Far East by a series of distant mountains that are wider than the Sea of Heavenly Kings. Therefore, all supplies at Haijiao Port can only be transported by sea. Similar to Iceland, it was a staging point for maritime trade, where ships were overhauled and refueled, sailors rested and entertained, and merchants haggled.

Due to the fact that the Beidou was in the process of hunting deep-sea electric eels, and later in the attack of deep-sea tiger sharks, the hull of the ship was damaged in many places, so it could only be driven to Haijiao Harbor for repairs first, and then go to the ancient temple in the north. Judging by the nautical charts, it will take at least two months to make the journey.

Like Iceland, Cape Harbor is a neutral zone, with a mix of dragons and snakes, but for Iron Slag and others, it is tantamount to a paradise.

After docking, the captain led the group ashore and stayed in a familiar bar.

"Tonight, let's have a few drinks, the owner here is my cousin, and it's arguably the safest place in the world." As soon as they entered, the captain and the bar owner hugged warmly, and then boasted about the sea.

"Ah! Drink, hooray! Lilith coaxed.

"Have you heard the story of the rabbit and the fox?" Iron Bell whispered in her ear.

"I've heard that~" Lilith said.

"Ever heard that you still dare to drink?" "I'm not a rabbit." "What does this have to do with rabbits? This story tells us that if a girl drinks too much, her butt will hurt~" Tie Ling said seriously.

"Didn't the captain say that this is the safest place in the world." Lilith said innocently.

Iron Bell suddenly looked at Lilith with wide eyes, as if he had found something in her face.

"What's wrong?" Lilith subconsciously touched her face.

"Looks like you're pregnant." After a while, Tie Ling commented.

"Ahh Why? Lilith asked, surprised.

"Haven't you heard them say that? Believe the captain's words to get pregnant. Iron Bell said.

"Is it that scary?" Lilith had an incredulous look on her face.

"Didn't you notice that I kept a distance of more than five meters from him all the time?" Iron Bell said.

Lilith frowned and thought about it, so she widened her eyes and asked, "Is what you said true?" ”

"Of course." Tie Ling clasped his hands to his chest and said with a serious expression.

After a few moments, the crowd split into tables and sat down. The captain ordered a roasted whole lamb, plenty of fruit and vegetable salad, and a large vat of ale.

"I wish us all the best and the treasure in hand." The captain said, raising his glass.

"Long live the King of the Black Sea!" The accountant was the first to stand up and shouted.

"Long live the boss!" "Long live the King of the Black Sea!" "Long live the treasure!" The sailors responded.

"Treasure?" Iron Slag turned to look at Hagrid, who was sitting beside him. Under the gaze of the former, the latter is a breezy and completely unaware appearance.

"Tell me clearly." Iron Slag lowered his voice and said in a deep voice.

"Tickets......" Hagrid whispered, leaning over.

"I mean, where did the treasure come from?" Iron Slag asked.

"Hah......" Hagrid said with a dry laugh, a little embarrassed, "Thunderhammer." ”

"What if it's not money?" Iron Slag continued to ask.

"We have this ......," Hagrid said with a smile as he clenched his fists. His meaning could not have been more obvious, and there was no one in the captain's group who was a match for the two brothers.

Iron Slag rolled his eyes and ignored Hagrid.

"I didn't expect you to be so shameless." Bi Tianye, who overheard the two brothers talking on the side, leaned over and whispered.

"When have I not been shameless?" Iron Slag squinted his eyes, hugged Bi Tianye on the right hand, and whispered in her ear.

"When are you going to let me go?" She asked, looking at him.

"When I feel safe, I'll let you go." Iron Slag said.

"Can you ......," Bi Tianye begged obediently, "let me talk to my sisters so they don't worry about me." ”

"I think it's good, just let them worry a little longer." Iron Slag grinned and said evilly.
