After 49 rounds of military battles, I have a deeper understanding of power, and now I look at the sky that seems to be an eternal night, but I have another emotion in my heart, that is, the rules of the Iron Curtain. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The Iron Curtain restricts the entry of the Count and above, which is actually very understandable.

For example, Qianye himself, if a group of ants pass by his feet, no matter whether they are moving food or fighting, they will not take a second look, even if they trample to death, it is also that they happen to appear at their foothold, which can only be regarded as unlucky. But if there are a few big bugs dangling around, or even cats, dogs and mice, which annoys them, they will no longer let them go, but will be killed casually.

This realization made Chiya a little uncomfortable, and he thought to himself that anyone who found himself an ant to be ignored in the eyes of others would not be happy.

Not long after Qianye came out of the customs, a special guest arrived in Blackstream City, an imperial envoy.

The envoy was a colonel from the military department, and he brought only a few retinues and asked to see the lord of Blackstream. After seeing Qianye, the envoy didn't say much, and directly handed him an official letter and a reward order, and asked a few more questions about the defense of Blackstream City, then said goodbye and left, and rushed to the next place.

In the eyes of the military envoy, there was nothing special about Blackstream City, and there was even a trace of pity in his eyes. This small city is located at the forefront of the border, and under the Iron Curtain, as soon as the bloody battle begins, sooner or later the city will collapse.

After the envoy left, Qianye opened the official document and saw that the content was similar to the summoning order issued by the expeditionary force to the various divisional headquarters. This is a mobilization order of the empire to call on all forces to participate in a bloody battle, and the military merit reward is twice the normal standard, and there is no identity restriction for those who participate in the war, regardless of whether they are high or low, they can be rewarded.

In addition, the empire has set up temporary bases in many places on the Eternal Night Continent, where you can go there at any time with your military merit certificate to redeem rewards, eliminating the cumbersome procedures of applying for military merit in the past. One of the most recent bases was located in the county town of Trois-Rivières, which was even under the Iron Curtain, which shows the importance that the Imperial Military Department attached to the war.

Along with the official / document is also attached a map, roughly indicating the extent of the Iron Curtain currently in the Empire's possession, that is, the scope of this battlefield. Of course, if you want to run outside the Iron Curtain to fight the dark race, it is not impossible, but it is possible to meet a real strong person.

Under the Iron Curtain, it is not absolutely impossible to encounter strong people, some strong people who have special abilities to hide their breath, or who can suppress the level, can still operate under the Iron Curtain, such as Zhao Valve's Yuyang Bo who directly entered the Black Flow City.

It's just that once they start with people, the battle time must not be delayed for too long, otherwise it is possible to attract the attention of the heavenly ghosts, not only is the ability suppressed by the Iron Curtain, the higher the level, the more likely it is to attract the heavenly ghosts to attack.

Qianye unfolded the map and examined it carefully, this time the plotting was more detailed than the military intelligence report he had obtained a week ago, and when he saw the border of the four solstice, he couldn't help but be surprised. The Iron Curtain now covers more than a quarter of the territory of the Terrans, and looking at the arc of the outer edge, most of the places that have not been depicted are still in the Dark Realm.

Although there is no information on the Dark Realm, if we extrapolate from the arc of this outer edge in the Terran territory, assuming that the complete form of the Iron Curtain is roughly circular, it means that more than half of the entire Eternal Night Continent is shrouded in the Iron Curtain.

With the size of the Iron Curtain alone, the strength of the heavenly ghosts is really beyond the limits of imagination.

Seeing this map, Qianye suddenly vaguely guessed the thoughts of some of the upper echelons of the empire. With the Iron Curtain under cover, it's a great time to attack the Dark Realm.

Putting down the official document and map, Qianye opened the list of rewards attached to the back, which listed different rewards according to the various levels of the Dark Race warriors.

Among them, with the Viscount as the baseline, killing a third-class Viscount will be rewarded with a Level 5 Force Gun, or it can also be converted into other weapons or resources of equal value. If you are able to securely capture a viscounty and bring it into the Terran Controlled Zone, the reward will be increased to a level 5 custom gun.

Just by looking at this list, you know that the empire paid for this war. You must know that there are only so many technicians in the entire empire who can manufacture firearms above level 5, so the annual output of level 5 guns is also roughly determined. In the past, the rewards for military merit were settled in imperial gold coins, and only in very special circumstances could they be exchanged for some strategic resources. As for the high-end Force firearms, ordinary people can't even afford the standard version, let alone the special version.

Qianye flipped through the two-page list of firearms, and couldn't help but feel a little excited. He now has Primordial Wings and Twins, which are not needed by a normal level 6 Force Gun. But there are also a lot of high-ranking officers in the dark fire, and in time, there will be more and more people who can drive fourth- or even fifth-level guns, and if they can change their equipment, not to mention that their combat power will soar.

The last page of the list was only a short line, but it firmly attracted Qianye's attention, and it turned out to be the highest purity of Sombra!

Sombra is a strategic material strictly controlled by the Empire, whether it is a low-purity power-grade Sombra used as a fuel, or a medium-purity Force-grade Minebra that is one of the main materials of the Force Gun, it is in short supply all year round. And the energy-level black crystals that can be converted into the Dawn Force for cultivation are usually completely priceless, such as the Song Valve cultivation room that consumes this kind of high-purity black crystal.

The empire actually opened the exchange of energy-level black crystals this time, which shows that the importance of this bloody battle on the Eternal Night Continent has been compared to the large-scale battle on the upper continent. Seeing this, even Qianye, who has always been calm, was moved. Although the price of exchanging black crystals is extremely expensive, it is better to have such a channel than nothing, if he can get some, maybe the time for him to break through the generals can be advanced.

As soon as Qianye put down the reward list, Zhao Yuying rushed over.

"How did you get out of this retreat?"

"Okay, at least figuring out the way forward. ”

"That's good, how long do you have to break through the generals?"

Qianye smiled bitterly: "At least two months, if you count the time of the battle, it will be longer." ”

Zhao Yuying breathed a sigh of relief instead, and said, "Don't rush to break through, lest the foundation be unstable." It's best to advance in the marrow washing pool, as for the qualifications, you don't have to worry about it at all, I will find a way to solve it, it's a big deal that the old lady will no longer receive money from the family in the future!"

A burst of inexplicable emotion appeared in Qianye's heart. Zhao Yuying said it easily, but it meant that she converted the share of resources she could obtain from the family in the future into a chance to enter the marrow pool. But he just nodded and didn't say anything.

Today, there is no need to say any more polite words between Qianye and Zhao Yuying, even if he doesn't intend to accept such an expensive gift, he has received her heart.

Zhao Yuying picked up the official documents, maps and reward lists in turn, and put them down after only one glance, and the content on them was not much different from the military orders sent by the expeditionary force before. But she seemed to have something else on her mind, but she didn't know how to say it.

Zhao Yuying rarely hesitated so much, and Qianye waited quietly without urging. This sturdy beauty suddenly took a deep breath, burst into a foul mouth, and then said, "The old lady still wants to participate in the bloody battle!"

"Why?" asked Chiya.

With Zhao Yuying's status in Zhao Valve, there should be no shortage of resources to exchange for this bit of military exploits. And it was very unpleasant to have a lot of trouble with Zhao Fenglei before, but now, the team that was scheduled to be handed over to her has not yet been in place. In fact, Zhao Yuying's injuries will not allow for a fierce battle for at least a few months, so it is logical to take advantage of this to retreat.

"For the sake of ...... Zhao Valve. ”

This answer surprised Chiya a little.

After the words were spoken, Zhao Yuying finally spit out, "That's right, it's for Zhao Valve." Even if I become what I am now, I still feel like a member of Zhao Valve in my heart. The big tree of Zhao Valve stands tall, so that we children can enjoy the shade underneath. Although there are many people in the family that I don't like, but in this kind of big thing, I ...... After all, the surname is still Zhao. ”

"I see. ”

"The intentions of the Emperor Party in this bloody war are obvious, this is to force the major families to have a showdown, and in order to cut the domain, it can be said that they will do everything they can. The empire has been founded for a thousand years, and the family of gate valves has also existed for a thousand years.

Qianye didn't know much about the political situation of the empire, so he was a little confused, and frowned: "What does this have to do with Zhao Valve? Even if you want to move the four valves, you must move the Song valve first, right?"

Zhao Yuying shook her head, "I, Zhao Valve, have a close relationship with the imperial family, and my blood is blended, and many of the queens in my ancestors are surnamed Zhao. His Majesty is now on the throne...... It is more special, the descendants are respectful of the Tang Li family, but the imperial family finally married Princess Gaoyi to the Duke of Chengen. Therefore, in the eyes of other gate valve families, Zhao Valve is an out-and-out emperor, but in the eyes of the imperial party, we are full of gate valves. ”

Qianye suddenly said: "So no matter which side gains power, it is possible to weaken or suppress the Zhao Valve......?"

"My grandfather and several uncles have roughly the same opinion, and most of the clan elders should also think so, so their attitude towards this bloody battle is extremely different. ”

"Hmm, raise the reward?"

Zhao Yuying was in a heavy mood, but when she heard this, she immediately laughed angrily, and stretched out her hand to knock on Qianye's head, "I know that the rewards are all broken by Song Qi!"

Immediately, she looked straight and said, "The clan has received news that someone in the imperial party wants to take Zhao Valve and may secretly attack our lord's children on the bloody battlefield. The meaning of the elders is to kill and stop killing, so as to establish authority. Not only do you have to gain military merits, but if you encounter a provocation from within the empire, no matter what faction you are, as long as you are hostile to my Zhao lord, you must also be killed!"

After speaking, Zhao Yuying returned to her big grin, patted Qianye on the shoulder, and said, "So sister, I'm going back to the Western Continent, strive to recover as soon as possible, and then come back to fight." Although the combat power is a little reduced, it is still better than the average person. Xiao Qianye, you can take care of yourself!"

Qianye smiled slightly, stretched out his hand, and said, "Bring it!"

"What?" Zhao Yuying was stunned.

"Your token of participation in the war, otherwise I killed the dark race, how can I credit your military exploits on your head?"

"What did you say?" Zhao Yuying almost couldn't believe her ears.

"I mean, I'm going to fight in your name, but the rewards of Lord Zhao and the Imperial Military Department will be mine. ”

"That's not good, half and half!" Zhao Yuying rejected viciously.

"Twenty-eight!"

"Sanqi!"

After a vicious bargain between the two sides, Zhao Yuying suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and looked at each other and laughed with Qianye.
