Chapter 140: The Forces of All Parties (First Shift, Four Thousand)
Chapter 140: The Forces
Early the next morning.
After Ling Feng went out, he met Lu Sen who was walking over, Lu Sen laughed and said, "Sixth, you have finally gotten up, today's Yunsu is much more lively than last night, it's a pity to miss it." β
"What's wrong?"
Lu Sen gestured, and a steward behind him stepped forward and replied, "Last night, those bigwigs were busy scrambling for the positioning compass, and it wasn't until today that someone came to their senses, and there was still one important thing to prepare for if they wanted to transport the Burning Stone back. β
Ling Feng had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and subconsciously said, "Knotting?" The people who are lucky enough to finally participate in this adventure are naturally the strong people from all sides, and it is undoubtedly a very worthless thing to let these strong people do coolies to transport the scorching stone, and it is naturally much more convenient to use knots.
"Exactly, Mr. Ling, you are really very intelligent. The steward of the Eastern Caravan station slapped his ass loudly.
Lu Sen scolded with a smile: "You kid don't flatter indiscriminately, the sixth child is not something you can impress with a few words, so go busy." After these days of getting along, the Oriental caravan station had a good impression of the bold Lu Sen, and he was not angry when he casually scolded the steward, and walked away with a smile. After the steward left, Lu Sen said: "Now the price of a knotted pattern outside has been speculated to 100,000 gold coins, and the capacity is only one cubic meter! They don't want to think that this grade of knotted pattern can store ten tons of scorching stone at most, and even if they sell it all, they won't even be able to recover the cost in the end." β
Ling Feng also shook his head again and again when he heard this, a knotted pattern made by Su Lan himself was only sold for 10,000 gold coins, and that was the price after changing hands a few times, which had increased tenfold here!
"Second Senior Brother, how many knots do we still have?"
"Hehe, I knew you were going to ask. Lu Sen stretched his hand: "Fifty pieces!" Before coming out, Senior Sister gave us all her inventory, and these knots are all good things with a capacity of more than five cubic meters, not comparable to those sold outside. He added: "When it comes to making these alchemy items, Senior Sister is the best of the best, even if it is the Principality of Fuke, if it is not for the technology they have accumulated over hundreds of years, I am afraid that no one can compare with Senior Sister!"
"Hmm", Ling Feng nodded, with these knots in his hand and the knots collected all the way, the reserves they possessed were indeed extremely amazing.
As Lu Sen came to the room where the Linghu brothers were being held, the two of them still had a vajra ring on their bodies, and as long as Lu Sen was willing, they could even keep the vajra ring for dozens of days. Ling Feng waved his hand casually and said, "Second Senior Brother, untie the vajra ring on their bodies." β
"Good. With Ling Feng here, Lu Sen was naturally not worried that they would escape, only to see that the golden light of his fingertips flickered, and the vajra circle that imprisoned the Linghu brothers disappeared immediately. Once they got out, the Linghu brothers jumped up, they instinctively looked left and right, and when they found that Ling Feng and the three of them had intentionally or unintentionally formed a triangular formation to perfectly block them, the two of them lowered their heads in frustration.
Ling Hu Chen said gloomily: "Our brother has confessed, what are you going to do with us, even if it is to give us our lives, give us a happy word!"
"Don't be nervous," Ling Feng smiled and waved his hand, "I want to discuss something with the two of you, how about it?"
"Discuss?" Brother Ling Fox looked at each other, not knowing what kind of calculation Ling Feng was playing.
"As adventurers, you are naturally very familiar with the Yunmeng Wasteland, we need adventurers who are familiar with the environment to lead the way this time, I wonder if the two of you are willing?" Ling Feng smiled: "After I come back, I can make the decision and leave the matter of this night attack uncovered." Ling Feng had made up his mind to keep the Linghu brothers by his side, and it was just a stopgap measure to ask them to lead the way at this time.
Ling Huchen was overjoyed: "That word is a certainty?"
"It's a deal!"
......
Everything was ready, and all teams embarked on the journey, and Ling Feng was naturally no exception. Outside the end of Yunsu, Ling Feng turned around and said, "Second Senior Brother, you all go back, if you continue like this, you will have to go to the Yunmeng Wasteland." β
"Well, sixth brother, you are careful in everything, and don't force it if you can't do it. Lu Sen solemnly instructed.
Lu Sen, who had a rough face, made this "motherly" appearance, which made people laugh and be deeply moved. Ling Feng nodded slightly, he saw Hao Yun, who was still a little listless in the crowd, smiled slightly, flicked his fingers and shot a Mingcui, half-jokingly: "Lord Hao, this is for you." With that, he beckoned, "Let's go." β
The figures of Ling Feng and his group of seven slowly disappeared from everyone's eyes.
"The gods are babbling and pretending to be mysterious. Muttering, Hao Yun casually stabbed his mind into Mingcui. Suddenly, his eyes protruded and stared straight at Mingcui in his hand, and let out a piercing scream! When he found that the people around him were looking at him inexplicably, he hurriedly took Mingcui into his arms and held it down, as if Mingcui would grow wings and disappear without a trace: That guy, that guy said that he would give me a copy of the exercises to restore his mind, he, he wasn't joking!?
......
White clouds flow slowly, like galloping horses and raising hooves, like beasts roaring, and there are all kinds of strange things. From a distance, you can see that the large areas of water and grass in front of you are knee-long, and occasionally there are particularly tall trees that are almost like towering trees. In the middle of the deep water, huge heads poked out, and the demonic beasts below slowly spat out columns of water, soaring into the sky.
An inexplicable excitement filled his heart, Ling Feng flicked his long sleeves suddenly, and let out a melodious dragon roar: "Roar!"
As if in response to his long roar, the demonic beasts in the water were even more excited, and the roars came one after another, as if a battlefield murder song was played.
"No!" beside him, Ling Hu Chen hurriedly made a move to stop Ling Feng, and Kane immediately gave a glare and warning. Ling Hu Chen withdrew his hand in embarrassment, although Ling Feng promised not to pursue their night attack after the matter was settled, he did not mention the return of their crystal seals at all. They only thought that this was a means for Ling Feng to restrain them, so naturally they didn't dare to ask for it. Having lost the trick of pressing the bottom of the box, they really didn't have half the confidence in facing Kane one-on-one.
After a long time, the dragon's groan slowly subsided, and the divine light in Ling Feng's eyes became more restrained, and after staring for a long time, it made people feel as if his eyes had become a pair of black holes, which was enough to completely inhale people's minds. Ling Hu Chen's heart was shocked, although his cultivation was not as good as Ling Feng's, his vision was not very bad, seeing this abnormal situation, he naturally understood that Ling Feng's mental cultivation had improved again in the roar just now. He lamented in his heart that he couldn't make a breakthrough after years of penance when he encountered a bottleneck, and the person in front of him could make great progress just by feeling it occasionally, this person was really angry than people!
"Mr. Ling, although the straight-line distance of this Yunmeng Wasteland is not very long, the area is incomparably vast, and now we can only see it very clearly from the periphery. Once you go deeper, all kinds of demonic beasts emerge in endlessly, and there is even no shortage of demonic beasts that exceed the limit, if you indiscriminately alarm them again, I'm afraid-"
Ling Feng understood that what Ling Hu Chen said about the Demonic Beasts that exceeded the limit meant the Sacred Realm Demonic Beasts, and he didn't think it was alarmist, after all, at this auction, Deberg also clearly said that there was a Sacred Realm Dragon Beast in the Yunmeng Desolation! He nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Linghu, I will be careful not to make any big moves." β
Ling Hu Chen was slightly surprised, looking at Ling Feng's eyes with a little more favor, he originally thought that a young and successful person like Ling Feng must be arrogant and would not listen to other people's opinions easily, but he didn't expect Ling Feng to be so good.
Ling Feng didn't know that his positive response would cause subtle changes in Ling Hu Chen's psychology, after a long howl just now, he clearly felt that his mind had strengthened a little more, and he faintly felt that if he exerted his "soul coercion" now, he should not be inferior to Wei Miao!
"It is rumored that you can enter the Endless Wasteland through the Yunmeng Wasteland, I wonder if Mr. Linghu doesn't know anything about the Endless Wasteland?"
Hearing this, Ling Hu Chen's body trembled, as if Ling Feng's question reminded him of some bad past, and he fell silent all of a sudden. Just when Ling Feng thought he wouldn't answer, he said dryly, "That's true, but there is still a long separation belt between the Endless Wasteland and the Yunmeng Wasteland, our brothers once wanted to enter the Endless Wasteland, but as a resultβ" His eyes showed an incomparable look of fear: "We were scared back." β
Ling Feng was shocked, he noticed that Ling Hu Chen used the word "scared", you must know that the people who can become adventurers are all bold people, give them a spear, they dare to pierce a hole in the sky! What is it that makes them so frightened? Ling Hu Chen does not dare to talk deeply, it seems that if he wants to get the answer to this question, he will have to ask Shizun or himself to explore it in person one day.
Ling Feng changed the subject understandingly, and he pointed to a black line in front of the hill: "They are positive, much faster than us. "The black line in the distance is the first to set off from the teams, because of the distance, only a shadow of the black line can be seen faintly.
"Well, we can still see clearly when we look at it, and if we really catch up, the distance in the middle is at least three or four hundred miles. Ling Hu Chen said with a little pride: "Fortunately, when it comes to familiarity with the Yunmeng Wasteland, there are few people who can compare to our brothers! β
"Then there's work. β
Ling Feng quickly realized that what Ling Huchen said was true, and by following their brothers, the group could avoid many detours. He was secretly glad in his heart, if it wasn't for their brother to lead the way, he was afraid that he would have to spend a lot more effort. Although the positioning compass can indicate the direction, but there is no reminder of some dangerous detours, if you go straight according to the positioning compass, I am afraid that it is easy to break into which group of monsters unconsciously.
......
It was a day faster than Ling Huchen expected, and two days later, Ling Feng and the others finally caught up with the large army, and not far in front of them were the various teams that were marching ahead of them. It wasn't that the teams agreed to move together, but according to the direction shown on the positioning compass, they naturally chose the same shortcut out of the intention of saving trouble.
Most of these teams have people who have been adventuring in the Yunmeng Wasteland for many years as guides, and these people have chosen roughly the same shortcuts, so they have caused a situation where they are moving forward in groups.
"Hey, isn't this Brother Fox, I haven't seen your brother for the past two days, I thought your brother wouldn't come. A middle-aged man with a brown beard laughed in the front team, his belly slightly bulging, his body was tall and strong, and he had a natural majesty on his body, obviously accustomed to commanding others.
When Ling Huchen saw this person, he immediately showed an annoyed look, and said with a "hum": "It's not thanks to your Marlowe's good news!"
"You're welcome, hahahaha, everyone is an adventurer, and communicating with each other is the right thing to do! Besides, although the Eastern Caravan is not strong, it can be regarded as being protected by the Boneless Gate, and we don't dare to provoke it at will, so it is convenient for your brothers to do it. β
As soon as he heard this, Ling Huchen's cheeks began to twitch: Lack of strength? Who is he comparing this damn guy? Being able to break the joint efforts of his two brothers with one move, this is still called a lack of strength? He hated to slap Marlowe's smiling face flat! Glancing at Ling Feng beside him, he forcibly suppressed this impulse.
Marlowe really didn't look like an alert person, and Ling Huchen came forward so coldly and uninterestingly: "Your brothers have always been alone, why did you want to team up with someone today?" He turned his gaze to Ling Feng.
With a thought in his mind, Ling Hu Chen replied with a wicked taste: "They are the weak Eastern caravan in the mouth of your brother Marlowe!"
"Uh-" Rao has a big grin temperament that doesn't care about anything, but when he knows that the object he has just degraded is in front of him, Marlowe is still full of embarrassment, and he "hehe" and laughs dryly: "This, this, you and these fox brothers-"
Ling Feng smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Linghu is the escort we invited. Seeing him answer like this, Ling Huchen glanced at him gratefully, if Marlowe knew that his brother was robbed but was restrained, it would be a big loss, don't want to mix in the adventurers in the future.
"I see, congratulations to you fox brothers on becoming mercenaries. "Ma Luo is an adventurer who has been in the mainland for many years, and his thickness is very comparable, so he immediately revealed it and didn't mention it, and he was close to Ling Feng.
There is no clear division between mercenaries and adventurers in the Divine Death Continent, adventurers can change jobs to become mercenaries at any time if they accept the commission of others, and even some bandit groups will make a cameo appearance as mercenaries if they are bored, but it is worth considering how credibility is.
Therefore, unless some mercenary groups that are larger and have already made a name for themselves on the continent can stand, the rest of the mercenary groups, large and small, often emerge like spring grass and disappear like bubbles.
