31. Golden energy
Lao Ke shook his head and waved his hand to veto: "Have you considered it, even if you find them, the major empires are rushing to hire them, and they are never short of money, so if the boss wants to use a lot of money to induce them to do things, we are very likely to cause conflicts with other imperial forces." But if the boss is powerful enough to dominate one side, they will have to think twice if they want to reject the boss. The bandit forces have been rampant here for a long time, and the competition is fierce, but how many junior fighters can a bandit gang have? I just learned that the Punal brothers are very capable, and the old man believes that the Punal brothers alone are more than enough to deal with them, if it doesn't work, what accidents can we have with the boss's red-eyed griffin?"
When the two Punal brothers heard this, they all looked at each other and laughed embarrassedly.
Claude didn't dare to offend these two Violent Bear Warriors, and as he spoke, he showed an extremely expectant expression, and said his true intentions: "Hehe, I really want to see how the Red-Eyed Griffin fights, and how it is different from ordinary puppets! ”
Jiajing smiled bitterly, it turned out that this old guy's purpose was just to see how my red-eyed griffin fought.
Claude, who has studied puppet alchemy all his life, is far more obsessed with the red-eyed griffin than Jiajing, who accidentally became the owner of the red-eyed griffin.
Jiajing suddenly remembered that when he was fighting with Vilia, the lightning sent by the one-horned fanged tiger fell on him but could only shatter his clothes, but did not do any harm to his body, so he changed the topic and asked him: "Claude, do you know the one-horned fanged tiger of Veria?"
Claude was a little strange: "Of course I know, it's a relatively rare dual-system demonic beast of earth and air, using stone thorns and thunderbolts as attacks, why did you suddenly mention it?"
Jiajing only had a puzzled expression: "When the lightning sent out by the one-horned fanged tiger struck me, it didn't seem to have any power, it just broke my clothes, Lao Ke, you mentioned that the red-eyed griffin has magic resistance, and I suddenly remembered." ”
Claude looked Jiajing up and down, and finally locked on the two strange bracelets on Jiajing's hands, "Thunderbolt lightning is a fourth-level magic, only a magician above the intermediate level can make it, it is huge, how can it be immunized by Jiajing's boss, could it be that the boss has any equipment on his body to enhance magic resistance?"
Jiajing himself was also blinded, at the beginning, his body was not equipped with other equipment except for the pair of alloy steel rings and puppet runes on his wrists, could it be said that this puppet rune is the same as the red-eyed griffin, with magic resistance?
Claude is an alchemy magician, and he has a deep knowledge of magic equipment, but he took a closer look, and still couldn't feel that the pair ring had any magic fluctuations, so he had to shake his head in frustration: "This bracelet doesn't have any magic breath at all, it can't be magic equipment, the boss said that Lao Ke didn't see the situation at that time, and I don't know much about qi magic, or I will see a gas magician in the future, let's say hello carefully." ”
In fact, for Claude, Jiajing still has something to hide, he originally wanted to tell Lao Ke about the red energy and golden lightning in his body, but this guy didn't confess to him about the storage equipment, he simply left some secrets about his hole cards, this kind of bizarre ability, if he encounters something tricky in the future, maybe he can help him survive.
The Athena Empire had a famous mountain range called the Alps.
The Alps are about 1,000 meters high, stretching for more than 3,000 kilometers, and the arc lies in the east of the empire, like a pair of arms, encircling the sea tribe in the southeast, and the exquisite empire adjacent to it, it embraces millions of square kilometers of territory in the southeast of the empire, and is the first natural defense line of the Athena Empire in the east.
If you want to invade the Athena Empire, you have to cross the Alps, known as the Paradise of Warcraft, or take advantage of the small country next to Athena to face the 100,000 border guards stationed in the north.
The Nile River originates in the Alps, and is very wide and wide, and is the dividing line between the Athena Empire and the Elite Empire.
Starpicking City is actually an area abandoned by the Empire, located outside the Alps.
If the people of Star City want to enter the truly prosperous area of the empire, they can only bypass the Alps and walk more than a thousand kilometers from the west to enter the embrace of the Alps.
The four of Jiajing set out from picking the stars, walked towards the east, walked for more than ten days, and finally arrived near the famous Nile River.
The robber whistle eye discovered by Jiajing and them was unexpectedly deep, and they hid far away like that, and followed Jiajing and them for three days and three nights, unaware that their whereabouts had already been completely exposed to Jiajing's eyes.
The robbers also have their own territory, so they will not easily cross the Nile to compete with the exquisite robbers, Claude estimates, these robbers are in hot pursuit, and will definitely not let them go easily, and it is very likely that it will not be long before the robbers will attack Jiajing and them.
The closer you get to the Nile, the more gentle the terrain becomes, and the rough road becomes smoother and wider, allowing the vehicle to move much faster.
The giant armored beast has been tired of traveling and driving on the rocky wilderness mountain roads these days, and the food purchased in a small city has been eaten on the way, and the four of them are covered with dust and look very tired, Jiajing instructed Punar, who is driving, to speed up and prepare to find a shallow water area with gentle water in the Nile, so that everyone and the giant armored beast can wash their bodies freely.
However, at this moment, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded in the distance, and it was discernible from the sound that the other party was rushing towards the Jiajing people at a speed of 100,000.
Claude's face changed slightly: "It's not good, this group of robbers are all cavalry!" Maybe they had some scruples about the Punar brothers, so they didn't dare to set up an infantry ambush in the steep mountains and forests, but chose to raid in this gentle wilderness. ”
Jiajing heard the sound of their hooves approaching quickly, even if the giant armored beast ran wildly with all its might, it would definitely not be able to outrun them, not to mention that the giant armored beast was very tired now, and it was still dragging a large car.
Jiajing sighed and waved his hand: "We can't leave anyway, let's just stay here, Punal, Punavi, you two pay attention." ”
At this time, the two brothers, Punar and Punavi, had already picked up a stainless steel giant sword in their hands with a hideous face, and the giant sword was made by Jiajing Hao, and he specially asked the famous craftsmen in the city to tailor it for them. The two of them nodded heavily, and then jumped out of the carriage together, staring at the giant fist-sized eyes, fiercely observing the group of robber knights who were getting closer and closer.
