Chapter 52: Pandora's Box Opened
What Hu Bin didn't know was that not long after he left the mausoleum, the magic patterns in the dungeon began to collapse. Without the golden coffin as the center, the sealing circle can no longer support it, and countless resentful spirits have surged from the ground, and these souls who cannot rest after being sacrificed by blood begin to search for their own bodies, and want to launch an endless revenge against the living, no, even if they die, they will continue to take revenge.
In the sacrificial pit, a lake of countless skeletons began to surge. In the secret room, the corpses of the big one, one-eyed, and Friesen suddenly opened their eyes, got up and moved their stiff bodies, and the big one looked at the empty slot of the golden coffin thoughtfully.
A few days later, Hu Bin finally returned to his comfortable castle bedroom bed, and he and Su Jia rolled the sheets for a day with great interest. Su Jia handed over the authority to her admirer Gerdan, the butler of the family, and Gerdan, who was worthy of being from the Chamber of Commerce, managed the economy of the territory in an orderly manner. However, militarily, Geldan did not have authority, the soldiers only trained passively, and Geldan only recruited a small number of high-level mercenaries passing through the city, and the number of recruits was as conservative as possible. Despite this, by the time Hu Bin returned to his territory, he had an army of more than 1,000 men, not counting the elite soldiers of the family's support that had been transported by ship.
These are just small episodes, and for the numberers on the mainland, Hu Bin's return has brought them too much surprise. When nearly 150,000 gold coins were put into storage on Hu Bin's body, all the numberers were given spatial hints.
"Attention numberers, there are more than 100,000 funds for unknown numberers, and the Warband World Mystery Shop is about to open. The current location is roughly within 20 kilometers of the city of Drehem in the Kingdom of Swadia, one week before the opening time, and the opening time will last for one week, and the next opening will be six months later.
Special Notes:
First, before entering the store, be sure to bring enough security deposit according to the regulations in front of the store, otherwise you will bear the consequences.
Second, some products are unique and will disappear once purchased, so please buy them from the numberer.
Third, after the purchase of the product, you can spend gold coins to get space recognition, please consider the numberer.
Fourth, a special melee zone has been designated for various countries within 20 kilometers of the store, and trespassers should be careful.
Fifth, the shop will disappear after the main quest for any numberer is completed. ”
Hu Bin's first reaction when he saw this was excitement, and then he was afraid that his funds would not be enough, and his face gradually began to darken. When he saw the last one, Hu Bin was already about to scold, this was forcing himself to start a war with other numbered people. The main quest is currently only possible to be completed by yourself, which will become the public enemy of the numberer.
"It's a Pandora's box, I knew that this adventure was rewarding a lot, there was definitely something wrong, it was waiting for me here." Hu Bin, who wanted to be crooked at all, instead calmed down, the water came to cover the earth, and the soldiers came to block it, who is afraid of whom these days, he can't fight a group of hard-pressed people who don't even have a few fiefdoms. The gorgeous holy sword in his hand gave Hu Bin infinite confidence, they didn't have to trouble him, if anyone dared to fight Hu Bin's idea, he would definitely eat the numbered people of that camp without even a hair.
Another thing to keep in mind is that it is inevitable to meet the numberers of other factions in the shop. Let's not talk about the numberers of Kugit and Rhodok, they are old friends. The numberers of the other camps are not so easy to say, who knows if someone will ambush outside the armistice zone, Hu Bin is not afraid of ghosts, he is afraid of ghosts.
"Do you want me to clear the field, space, it's not good." Even the space couldn't be imagined, simply opening a store made Hu Bin almost think of being a butcher of the number, where did the single-cell ** silk when he first came to the space.
No wonder Hu Bin thought so much, after experiencing the assassination of Prince Rhodok, Hu Bin began to be careful. After asking the Su family about this, he finally knew that he was wrong about the space (space: you finally understand). From the creation of the Horcruxes, it can be seen that the factor that prevented Hu Bin from hitting Rhodok hard was the luck of the world. The six great powers have been fighting for so long, and the luck they have saved is not exhausted by a few defeats, maybe the heavenly plane consciousness did not expect that Rodok would be on the verge of extinction so quickly, and it was too late to intervene, so he could only take the risk of using some small means.
However, these small tricks ruined the last bit of luck of Roddock, and a failed assassination succeeded in infuriating Hu Bin. With his influence in Salander, it was easy to move the Sultan to go to war against the barely alive Rhodok. The so-called pulling a hair and moving the whole body, other countries on the mainland will also beat the water dogs, and Rhodok is really in a catastrophe.
But Hu Bin was faced with a choice.
The location of the mystery shop is too close to the big city of Svadia. Although they are still fighting with the Nords, the old stubborn Craggs will definitely hold on to Drehem. Approaching with a large army of your own will attract the attention of the Swadians, and not bringing too many of your own people will attract the prying eyes of the enemy numberers.
Do you want to give up this opportunity? Hu Bin then suppressed the idea.
"It's okay to find someone to go with." Hu Bin patted his head.
Perhaps it was the joint efforts of the numberers, or perhaps for some other unknown reason, a brief and eerie peace ushered in the continent in early June. Swadia's army retreated to the plains to confront the Nords, while Vegia withdrew to the snowy plains without taking advantage of them, and the Kugit began to celebrate the defeat of Vigia, while the Salanders continued to fight in obscurity. Rhodok? Forgive us for forgetting this beanie.
Two days later, Hu Bin lit up the people and prepared to go to Harr to wait for Gerry, who was waiting for him, and Howard, who had no news, was probably still immersed in the warm nephrite jade in the hometown of Scissors.
This time, Hu Bin took his ideal legion, and during the month of the adventure, a total of 11 mercenary cavalrymen met the promotion conditions of the apprentice heroic knight. Hu Bin spent part of this month's proceeds to complete their equipment, plus the remaining 7 and the last 5 from the last shipment, Hu Bin had a lord's guard of 23 sixth-level cavalry. In addition, 24 mercenary cavalry and 32 mercenary horsemen formed the backbone of the legion, and for these soldiers, Gerdan went to the taverns of the major cities this month.
The weekly maintenance cost of a pure cavalry regiment of more than 80 people can make a good life for a month for a common numberer. This is the confidence of Hu Bin who dares to break into the melee zone with Gerry, even if he encounters the elite legions of the army of the aboriginal lords, Hu Bin dares to have a hard time with them.
In Harmo City, the high-spirited Gerry ate exquisite food and waited for Hu Bin's arrival at the bar of the tavern. The pigs all know who opened the store this time, 100,000 gold coins, this is a wealth that can make ordinary numberers crazy, how much money Reed has saved in the dark. I didn't see that he was thrifty, and his troops suffered several heavy losses. Some time ago, he was still expanding his army aggressively, and the recruitment conditions of those sixth-level iron cans made Gerry's heart tremble, that is, Reed has the capital to play, so he should honestly find some Kugit people to practice slowly.
However, now Gerry is not bad, a large number of high-ranking cavalry appeared quickly under the supply of money and food, and within a month, Gerry once again had a strong legion, with more than 70 people, which was not inferior to the aboriginal lords. The lady of Lana City was finally married by him, and he hooked up with the marshal's family, making him a fish in water in the Kugit nobility. Victories in several skirmishes against the Virgians have given Gerry a lot of prestige and supplies, and one of his dyes has been established in Lana, which brings him a steady stream of income every week.
"Hey, are you alright, Gerry." The distracted Gerry was awakened, and Hu Bin's figure appeared in his field of vision.
"Very good, my friend. Let's say, what are you going to do when the store opens this time, and the black and white ones are put down. Gerry smiled like a fox, every time he worked with Reed, he believed that this time would be no exception.
"There's no plan, just rush over, kill those who stand in the way, kill those who don't accept it, onlookers, well, don't worry about it."
"Simple violence, I like it." Gerry was going crazy with joy, and with this powerful ally, his position among the numberers was not yet rising.
Long before they met, Hu Bin had been in contact with Gerry. This time, the two of them can be said to have prepared for the worst, even if they are besieged by the numbered ones, they have countermeasures. Once accidentally caught by other numberers, unless Hu Bin wants to delay for a month, he will have to pay a lot of money to redeem himself, and others will not let go of the large amount of money on him.
After resting at the inn for a day, the two of them rushed to Drehem City with their legions as soon as it was dawn.
