Chapter 173: The Little Dragon is Attacked
Mercenaries are prevalent in the land of Western Xinjiang, and the mercenaries issue and hand over tasks all run in the mercenary tower, and the mercenary tower has naturally become a very important building in the western Xinjiang.
Originally, on the land of Western Xinjiang, there was only one mercenary tower, which was a sacred object that came from outside the territory, the tower was thousands of feet high, divided into seven sections, standing in the middle of Western Xinjiang, the peerless strong man could not hurt it with all his strength, and the vicissitudes of life through the ages did not fall.
The mercenary tower has the esoteric law Liliang, as long as you use your mind to convey the task to the mercenary tower, and attach the reward you set, you can issue the task.
The Mercenary Tower will be divided into seven tiers according to the difficulty of these tasks, and will be sealed in the seven-story tower.
When the monk directly enters the tower hall on the corresponding floor, he can choose the task by himself, and after completing the task, he can return the task and get the corresponding reward.
As for how the mercenary tower operates, no one can know, but this method of use has been accompanied by the mercenary culture in Western Xinjiang for countless years.
The mercenary tower is a god outside the sky, and the peerless master cannot destroy half a point, so it is absolutely safe to issue tasks in the tower, and there is no need to worry about the other party's tricks, and the efficiency is extremely high, so it is very popular in Western Xinjiang.
It's just that there is only one mercenary tower, which is obviously impossible to meet the needs of all the monks in the land of Western Xinjiang, so the major shili have taken action, as if building a network, through secret methods, to build mercenary towers in the land of Western Xinjiang.
These mercenary towers are not actually mercenary towers, their real function is just equivalent to a teleportation array that can teleport monks to the main mercenary tower and hand over tasks.
However, the production method of the space teleportation array has long been lost on the mainland, and all the existing teleportation arrays have been handed down from ancient times.
Therefore, even if it is such a simple mercenary tower, if it were not for the fact that the mercenary main tower had already recorded the method of sacrifice, it would be impossible for the major ethnic groups in Western Xinjiang to build it, which can also show the miracle of the real mercenary tower.
As the wolf slowly approached the mercenary tower, the surrounding sky gradually became lively, and the monks of various veins appeared one after another, and even on the ground, there were also vigorous figures, whose bodies were like electricity, running like the wind, and converging towards the mercenary tower.
Seeing this scene, the Sky Wolf was not only slightly stunned, it seemed that the prevalence of mercenaries in Western Xinjiang was even higher than he thought.
Riding the dragon by himself was too ostentatious, so the wolf let Xiaohong and Wang Ziqiang wait between a barren mountain hundreds of miles away, and rushed to the mercenary tower with the sword light on his feet.
It is a seven-zhang high cyan stone tower, octagonal shape, the tower is divided into seven layers, each floor has eight doorways, the appearance looks natural, standing in a valley, exuding a condensation momentum.
In front of each stone gate, there was a disciple wearing a cyan military uniform, and at this time, many monks gathered from all directions, chose different tower layers, and entered the tower hall after paying a certain amount of spirit stones.
The main tower of the mercenaries is a god outside the sky and has no belonging, but these mercenary towers are built by each shili at the expense of a lot of resources, in order to make a profit, so they naturally need to be charged.
Among the eight portals of each layer of stone towers, there are four tower gates to enter people, four tower doors to go out, people come and go, and there is an endless stream.
The wolf flashed from the sky, and instead of entering the tower directly, he took a look. It was found that from the bottom to the top, the number of people entering and exiting the seven-story stone tower decreased in turn, and when they reached the fifth floor, there were few figures, and no one cared about the six-story seven-story stone tower.
Although the strength of some alien monks is difficult to discern for a while, the strength of the cultivators in them can be seen, from the first to the third layer, there are some monks who condense the foundation in and out, and those who enter and exit the fourth and fifth floors are all monks in the Yudan period.
With a deep groan, Sky Wolf's eyes flashed slightly, and with a single step, he fell directly towards an entrance on the sixth floor.
You must know that the task of the sixth layer is very difficult, and it requires at least fourth-order cultivation, and it may not be possible for one person to come for a long time, so as soon as the Heavenly Wolf appeared, it immediately attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked up, with a look of awe in their eyes.
And the disciple who was guarding in front of the door, when he saw the arrival of the heavenly wolf, his eyes were also fixed, his expression was solemn, and he respectfully hugged his fists and said: "Juniors welcome seniors, please!"
As he spoke, the disciple turned to the side slightly, and opened the stone gate for the heavenly wolf, without asking for payment at all.
As soon as the wolf's eyes flashed, he was relieved, the identity of the fourth-order powerhouse was transcendent, even if he looked at the western frontier, he was also an absolute combat power, and in the face of such a person, he naturally tried his best to show goodwill.
Moreover, the number of fourth-order powerhouses is too small, even if the honorarium is really collected, there is not much at all in a year, and there is no difference between receiving and not collecting, so this honorarium is naturally exempted.
The heavenly wolf nodded slightly, his eyes swept slightly over the disciple, and found that this disciple was not a cultivator, his eyes flashed, combined with what he learned from Wang Ziqiang on the road, as well as his own experience, he had already judged that this was a fighting master who cultivated fighting qi.
Nodding slightly at this disciple, the Heavenly Wolf walked directly into the mercenary tower, walked through a short corridor, and came to a simple stone room.
The stone chamber is not big, only one zhang square, and the ground is built with bluestone masonry, carved with a complex circular pattern.
The wolf walked into the stone room, stood in the center of the formation, and a soft blue light suddenly bloomed on the circular formation, and the next moment, the figure of the wolf disappeared into the stone room.
The wolf only felt a flower in front of him, and the next moment, his figure flashed, and he had already appeared in a strange space.
This space is supreme, there is no ground to speak of, it is suspended in the air, surrounded by vast blue light, and one by one shining and crystal transparent beads are like stars, suspended in the void around him.
The wolf's gaze swept over those beads, and he didn't even need to probe with his divine sense, and suddenly a large amount of information came directly to the bottom of his heart, and the descriptions of one task after another came to mind:
Go to the top of Lei Ji Mountain, collect a wisp of mixed yuan pure thunder, reward, and a seven-turn golden pill!
Capture an adult bloodthirsty rhinoceros and seal it with a spirit scroll. Reward: Forbidden Spell Scroll - Wind and Thunder Fury!
A complete yuan baby, reward, fifty zhang giant puppet!
......
There were all kinds of strange tasks, and there were so many things that the wolf couldn't help but look surprised at just a cursory glance, many of the contents and rewards of these tasks that he had never heard of.
Thinking of this, the Heavenly Wolf nodded secretly: The land of Western Xinjiang is really extraordinary, all kinds of monks are active at the same time, and they have many strange items that are not available in the outside world, but just by looking at the name, they know that they are extraordinary, and their eyes are opened.
Sweeping his gaze over the beads one by one, in the end, Sky Wolf chose a task of average difficulty.
The quest requirement is to hunt a fourth-order demonic beast called the Fire Cloud Leopard and take out its demonic beast crystal nucleus, and the reward for the quest is a spell called Purgatory Demon Wind.
There is a description of the power of this spell in the mission description, and there is a remnant of the trick, just from this small part of the remnant, the wolf can see the extraordinary features of this spell, although it is not strong, but it is also very practical, so he took this task.
Reaching out and picking off the crystal bead suspended in mid-air, the entire bead suddenly turned into a piece of crystal light, which melted into the body from the palm of the wolf, which meant that the wolf had solved the task.
The next moment, the blue light on the wolf's body flashed, and he had already left this strange space, and when he reappeared, he appeared in a stone room in the mercenary tower.
Looking at the complex texture on the ground, the wolf's eyes flashed slightly, and the secret path was magical, and after walking through a short passage, he walked out of the mercenary tower from another stone gate, and with a step on his feet, he directly turned into a sword light, and threw it into the sky without stopping.
The distance of hundreds of miles passed in the blink of an eye, and soon the Sky Wolf approached the mountain range where Xiaolong and Wang Ziqiang were staying.
But at this moment, in the direction of the valley, a brilliant and shining crimson light rose up to the sky, and with a bang, it exploded, and then a roar full of anger shook the sky and spread.
When the wolf heard the voice, his face suddenly changed, and he became gloomy, his eyes surged with murderous intent, his figure flashed, and he disappeared directly in place.
In a valley a hundred miles away, the little dragon's body tensed, a dull roar came out of his throat, and a pair of huge dragon eyes were full of anger, and he glanced around coldly.
Wang Ziqiang's face was full of shock, his face turned pale, he leaned closely against Xiaolong's side, took out a flying sword and hovered in front of him, looking around vigilantly, trembling all over.
Around Xiaolong and Wang Ziqiang, more than 20 knights in armor rode on horseback, each holding a sword, and surrounded Xiaolong in the center.
More than 20 fighters use tall and strong horses, or all kinds of magical beasts as mounts, holding heavy swords, double swords, spears, shields and other weapons in their hands, all of them have strict expressions, looking at the little dragon's eyes, full of awe and heat, and there is an inexplicable brilliance shining!
Facing the siege of the crowd, the little dragon let out an angry roar, opened its mouth and spat out a mouthful of searing dragon breath, burning towards one of the knights.
The knight's face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly raised his heavy navy blue shield and put on a standard defensive posture in front of him.
As soon as the defensive posture was completed, a faint golden light suddenly bloomed on the shield, protecting the knight's whole body - the holy shield guarded!
The scorching dragon's breath surged in, and the fierce flames directly drowned the knight's figure, and a terrible scream rang out.
The knight flew upside down from the flames along with the warhorse under his seat, his armor was scorched and black, his right hand holding the shield trembled, and the heavy shield in his hand was covered with shocking thick cracks.
Xiaolong's strength is already very strong, and it is not at the same level as this knight, and with a casual bite of dragon breath, it is not something he can resist.
But as soon as the little dragon was powerful, before he could continue the pursuit, a high-ranking knight riding a demon tiger and wearing black armor burst into a roar, instigated the reins, and a golden light rose from the body and lit up, reaching the four huge tiger claws of the demon tiger.
Infused with golden light, the fierce demon tiger suddenly roared, and the instinctive fear of the dragon clan's coercion in his eyes was instantly suppressed, replaced by a fierce aura, and the golden light bloomed on the four strong tiger legs, directly turning into a blurred black shadow, and quickly pounced.
Charge!
After launching the charge, Black Flame was as fast as lightning, dragging an illusory afterimage on the ground and crashing into the side of the little dragon.
The huge tiger head of the Xuanblack Demon Tiger, which was tangled with the king-shaped pattern, slammed into the craggy red scale armor on the side of the little dragon, and immediately hit the blood splashing. But the powerful impact force directly knocked the little dragon into a roar, and the huge body moved half a foot horizontally, and the second breath of dragon breath that was ready to exit was also stillborn.
Hei Lie, who was sitting on the back of the black tiger, saw the opportunity, his eyes suddenly shone brightly, and he swung his heavy sword and slashed heavily at the side of the little dragon, and suddenly burst out one after another fierce sparks, leaving a narrow wound on the side of the little dragon.
The little dragon was traumatized, and immediately became furious, let out an angry roar, and its body rose vertically, and the strong dragon tail twitched horizontally.
In the face of the dragon's tail slash, the pupils of Hei Lie's eyes suddenly shrank, and he hurriedly raised his shield to defend and launched the holy shield protection.
The crimson giant tail covered with scales and armor slammed into the black flame's giant shield, making a loud bang, and the black tiger mount under the black flame's seat suddenly roared and slid out, and the four giant claws plowed four deep gullies several zhang long on the ground before finally stopping.
Hei Lie on his back removed his shield, wiped the bright red blood from the corners of his mouth, forcibly suppressed the huge force that was churning violently in his chest, raised his heavy sword, and shouted loudly:
"Quick! Attack it continuously, don't let it run away, Senior Brother will be here soon, and you will definitely be able to subdue this fire dragon! This is a noble fire dragon with pure blood, only it is worthy of Senior Brother, and at that time, Senior Brother will be a real dragon knight!"
