readx;
There was a small episode before going out, the flying shadow brought by the Valley of Thorns had to go with Xiao Di, Xiao Di said that he would promise to take her with him when he went for the second time, so he finally persuaded her. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Then Xiao Di gave her another task, and asked her to send a letter to Fa Xuelian, who was still cultivating in the Crystal Gate, and the family members in Beijun Town to report her safety, after all, it was only a correspondence before, and now it is more reassuring to have a trustworthy person to see it in person, and the panicked Feiying, who is used to running the road, is naturally happy to agree.
A few days later, Xiao Di and his party successfully passed through the checkpoint in the north of the Red Ridge Mountain Kingdom and entered the burning plain where the Black Stone Mountain is located.
After coming to the Burning Plains, Xiao Di and the others understood why there was such a rule, only to see that this place seemed to be in a different space with Chiji Mountain, the sky seemed to be full of burning flames, and the whole earth only had two tones of black and red, which seemed very monotonous, and there seemed to be a smell of burning sulfur in the air, which was extremely tangy.
Zhao Ming had been here many times, and he told everyone that the entire Burning Plains was due to the special reasons of geology and air, coupled with the protracted battle between the Elemental Clan and the Black Stone Dwarves hundreds of years ago, which made the air here full of faint fire poison, and the martial artists below the level of Silver Cultivation could not hold out for half a day even if they were motionless here.
Even if the third-order and fourth-order ability people who have just entered the silver stage are not affected by their actions, once they enter the combat state, their strength will be greatly reduced, and the fifth-order ability can not fight for a long time, and only after reaching the sixth order can they be completely unaffected, so there is no large-scale race here except for some small groups of explorers, whether it is humans or elves.
Even the dwarves who are born with strong demon resistance are the same, and like humans, the dwarf kingdom is also divided into several large tribes according to blood relations, and the relationship between them is not good, since the blackstone dwarves have occupied most of the underground area of this plain, the dwarves of the rest of the tribes generally do not come here on a large scale, unless they want to have a war.
Not long after entering the Burning Plains, Xiao Di and the others saw that the fire elements in a deep pit suddenly gathered and formed several human-like bodies, Mr. became a torso, then limbs, then a head, and finally the facial features also became clear, turning into five fire elements up to three meters high, among which the one was particularly thick, reaching three meters five.
Xiao Di and the others saw the real fire element for the first time, and they couldn't help but feel very curious, but Zhao Ming's brows furrowed slightly.
I saw that the fire elemental said in the common language of mankind: "Tiny human beings, this is the realm of the great Flame Lord Manda, I am his general Shar, you dare to step into here, you have already offended the majesty of my lord, I think of your first offense, each of you leave a hundred colored crystals and leave here quickly, otherwise I, Lord Shar, will take you down and take you back." ā
Although the tone of this Sha'er was quite strange and hoarse, he spoke very fluently, and it seemed that he was dealing with humans a lot, and as soon as his voice fell, the fire elements behind him immediately took a step forward with a cold eyebrow and raised the flame spear in his hand and aimed it at Xiao Di and them, obviously building momentum for the boss.
Henry asked puzzledly: "Brother Zhao, what the hell is going on, how do these fire elements feel like robbers, and how can they also need colored crystals, are they still going to buy things?" This scene is also funny when you think about it." ā
Zhao Ming smiled bitterly and whispered to everyone: "Since the great battle between the Blackstone Dwarves and the Elemental Clan, most of the Elemental Clan legions have withdrawn, leaving only some ordinary clans still here, among which the fire elemental and earth elemental are the majority, and the atmosphere here is said to be very close to their hometown, so it is very popular with them.
Later, after a long time, they were also divided into several teams here, each team will occupy a piece of territory, and some teams will also collect tolls from people who pass through here, such as the guy named Shar in front of us, they are different from us, they need colored crystals not for consumption, but directly to absorb the energy in them. ā
Zhao Mingyi said that Henry was more interested: "Brother Zhao, what do you do when you encounter this situation under normal circumstances, do you fight or run away with them, and also, what is the combat power of these fire elements?"
Zhao Ming said patiently: "This depends on the specific situation, after all, this is the home of the elemental clan, their comprehensive power is definitely stronger than ours, generally speaking, we still choose to negotiate with them, and take out some colored crystals to pass smoothly, this guy looks at us and wants the lion to open his mouth to blackmail us, according to the usual practice, each person only needs ten colored crystals to pass."
As for the strength of these elements and our human beings, they are almost divided according to the level of ability, generally speaking, the eighth-order ability can be called a lord, the seventh-order is a general, the sixth-order is a soldier, as for the ninth-order and above the big lords, most of them have withdrawn with the large army, and the rest are also in a state of deep sleep--when they are asleep, it is also the time to digest energy and evolve.
And those elements below the fifth order are still sleeping in the underground or deep pits, to accumulate energy to condense the body, as for the elemental combat ability is still relatively strong, they are naturally proficient in the power of the artistic conception of this attribute, and can also skillfully use the various skills and spells of the system, and because their bodies are between solid and gaseous, pure physical attacks will greatly reduce them, and it is best to use targeted magic attacks The power will be relatively large. ā
At this time, Xiao Di also interjected, but his question was very simple and clear, and he could directly see his intentions.
"Brother Zhao, what benefits can you get from killing these fire elements?"
Zhao Ming was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "The soldier level will drop elemental fragments, the general level will drop the overall element, the lord level will drop the elemental essence, and the great lord level will even hear that the elemental core will be dropped, these things are indispensable good things in forging and alchemy, and the elemental essence can even improve the power of the corresponding familiar artistic conception when we warriors take it directly, needless to say the elemental core, it is said that it can be used to build and enchant legendary-level equipment."
But Xiao Di, why are you suddenly asking this, you don't want to kill them, do you?"
Xiao Di's mouth slid a small arc: "Why not? Just like Brother Zhao said, the elements here can be said to be treasures all over the body, and they are completely mobile vaults, after all, we entered the dungeon space to make money and collect resources, where are we not doing it? Not to mention that they sent it to the door themselves, which is equivalent to a reward from God, and we will be unhappy if we don't take it." ā
Zhao Ming's anxious sweat almost came out: "Xiao Di, you have to think clearly, the elemental clan has a large number of people here, it is not difficult for us to deal with the five in front of us, if we provoke a large army, it will be troublesome." ā
Xiao Di smiled faintly: "Brother Zhao, didn't you say it, the so-called elemental lord here is just an eighth-order ability, it shouldn't be difficult for the eight of us to deal with one, right? This kind of seventh-order fire element is not worth mentioning, so let's do it, Brother Zhao, if you don't dare to do it, just retreat to the back with the two adjutants, this vote is decided by our team, brothers, what do you say?"
Nadal and Gru and the other three did not speak, but nodded silently and said that only Xiao Di was looking forward, and Henry was a guy who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, even if others did not provoke him, he would provoke others, not to mention that now the fire element took the initiative to provoke? Hearing Xiao Di's words, he naturally agreed with it.
Seeing this situation, Zhao Ming could only nod helplessly, he has a calm personality, and he is generally unwilling to take risks, but he is not really afraid of things, he can't really let Xiao Di and them go up, they sit by and watch from the side, right? And Xiao Di seems to have a natural kingly temperament - bold, atmospheric, brave and not aggressive, which makes everyone who accepts his leadership feel confident and morale.
Xiao Di motioned for everyone to get ready for battle, and then walked towards Sha'er with a smile: "Lord Sha'er, before I came here, I heard that everyone's toll fee is two hundred colored crystals, but I didn't expect you to only need one hundred, it seems that you are really generous, but I don't have so many colored crystals on me, can I use Azeroth diamonds instead?"
Sha'er was stunned for a moment and then couldn't help but be overjoyed, they all understood that those who dared to come to the Burning Plains were not weak, even if their Fire Elemental Clan was strong here, they were not willing to start a battle lightly, it was best to be able to obtain the colored crystal without blood, to be honest, he was originally blackmailing Xiao Di so that they could wait for them to bargain.
I didn't expect to meet such a stupid boy today, he still thinks that the toll fee of a hundred colored crystals per person is cheap, it seems that today is really blessed by the god of flames, he can make a lot of money, in addition to paying the tax to the boss of Manda according to the first five colored crystals of each person, he can still leave a lot, but the specific amount of his humble IQ can't be counted, anyway, it must be a lot of money.
Shar tried to make a kind smile and said: "Boy, you don't look very old, but you know how to be sophisticated, Shar-sama I like you! Originally, our rules were that you were not allowed to have colored crystals, but for the sake of your being so polite, the eight of you only need to give me an Azeroth diamond, how about it, Lord Shar, I'm very talkative, right?" ā
Xiao Di really took out an Azeroth diamond and put it in front of Shar: "Lord Shaar, the diamond is here, but can I make a small request to your lordship?"
Seeing the glittering diamond Sha'er's eyes lit up, he waved his big hand and said: "Boy, do you have any requirements, just say it, are you worried that there will be our people behind you to collect the toll?" Don't worry, Lord Ben will give you a token later, so that all the people in our team will be directly allowed to leave, and my reputation as 'generous Lord Sha'er is not for nothing, hahaha." ā
