Chapter 279: Losing His Wife and Breaking His Soldiers
The retired soldiers of the demon clan soon returned to the city, and when they returned home, they suddenly realized that something was wrong, because the family had been robbed. Their treasury was forcibly opened, and all the collections inside were stolen.
The families of these demon soldiers were not injured, but they were drugged by some master and fell unconscious one by one.
There are not too many rich people in the entire Ten Thousand Demon City, only more than 500,000, but in just one month, their treasure troves have been stolen.
This is the hard work of their life, and now they have all been stolen, can they not be angry at this time? But what's the use of being angry? Without evidence, they can't report it.
At this time, reporting to the City Lord's Mansion is to find a scolding, and the Ten Thousand Demon City Lord also scolded them for not making any effort before, and finally let the Dementor Beast escape, and now going to the City Lord's Mansion will naturally not have a good face waiting for them.
At this time, the vast majority of rich people became poor overnight, and they could only hide in a corner and wipe their tears, and they didn't even dare to say it out loud.
On the other side, Qin Hao and the others had already left the Ten Thousand Demon City. In addition to the five people when they came, there were two more people, one was the little demon girl Gui Zi, and the other was Wanqiu, who was transformed into a strange beast dementor beast.
Of course, in addition to these people, there were also some enslaved righteous soldiers. At this time, they honestly stayed in Qin Hao's Qiankun bag, and then Qin Hao took them back.
These seven people did not go directly to the first fortress, but made a detour to the tenth fortress, so that they could be regarded as the main army of the perfect avoidance of the demons.
Along the way, Aunt Mei and Ao Zhu were overjoyed, and the two finally completed the task and retrieved the Zhen Clan's Supreme Treasure Mandarin Duck Soul Destroying Knife. As Gui Zi deduced, this treasure knife was collected by a rich demon and then put into the treasure house.
In order to treasure his treasure, this rich demon even did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to build an underground treasure room that could be isolated from spiritual exploration.
Under normal circumstances, even if he knew that it was this rich man who took the Mandarin Duck Soul Slayer Knife, he couldn't easily take it away. But with Qin Hao's presence, his heavenly means made the treasure house of the rich man of the demon clan easily pierced like papier-mΓ’chΓ©, and then took all the treasures in it away.
Therefore, this time Qin Hao gained a lot, and Bao'er was very envious, but she just didn't contribute, so she was embarrassed to take the baby.
Qin Hao promised that those who saw it would have a share, and in the future, he would refine a Duerdan for everyone, which made everyone smile.
Soon the group arrived at the 10th Fortress, the entrance of which had a group of guard handles, so a pass was required to enter and exit the fortress. It's just that Qin Hao and the others didn't have a pass, so they were denied entry.
"This brother, we are heroes in and out of the demon clan, do you know the consequences if you don't let us in?" Jukan kindly reminded.
The captain of the guard said solemnly: "I'm sorry, I don't care who you are, we only recognize the pass!" If you don't have a pass, you at least have an identity token! β
Zhu Kan wanted to teach this guard who had no eyesight a lesson, but was stopped by Qin Hao. I saw Qin Hao take out his identity token and said, "This is my identity token, you can see if there is any problem!" β
When the captain of the guard looked at Qin Hao's identity token, he was immediately taken aback. Because his identity token is the First Fortress General, the captain of the guard has never encountered such a situation. You must know that the generals of the major fortresses generally do not take the initiative to leave their posts without authorization, let alone from the first fortress to the tenth fortress, which is a difference of eight fortresses, and the distance is even more than four hundred light years.
However, for the sake of safety, the captain of the guard hurriedly reported the matter. Soon the defenders of the 10th fortress will arrive. The person who came turned out to be an old acquaintance that Qin Hao knew, and this person was the Sun Qu Ren Qi who had been protecting the Ximeng City Lord's Mansion before.
At this time, Yan Qi was already a commander, which shows that his combat power has been greatly improved compared to more than a thousand years ago. However, this is not surprising, after all, the Qu people claim to be the descendants of the Golden Crow, they have been sleeping for hundreds of millions of years, and their understanding of the Dao has never stopped, so after obtaining Qin Hao's Tribulation Pill, their cultivation has been rapidly improved without suppression.
Today's Yan Qi is already a master in the late stage of the Tribulation, and his cultivation speed can be described as unparalleled. The moment he saw Qin Hao, Yan Qi recognized him at a glance.
"City Lord Qin, I didn't expect to be able to meet you here, it's really a blessing!" Then Yan Qi began to probe Qin Hao's cultivation, and found that he couldn't see through the other party, and immediately said in surprise: "Your cultivation? β
Qin Hao smiled and responded, "Senior Qi Qi, it's okay not to see you for many years?" My cultivation was covered by a treasure on my body, so it is understandable that my predecessors couldn't see through it. β
Yan Qi nodded, suddenly realized, and then led Qin Hao and the others into the fortress.
When he met an old man in another country, Yan Qi naturally wanted to give him a warm reception, and then he asked people to prepare wine and food for Qin Hao and others to wash the dust.
After three rounds of drinking, Yan Qi couldn't help but be curious: "How did Brother Qin become the general of the First Fortress, could it be that the strength of the old brother has reached the peak of the Tribulation?" β
I saw Qin Hao shaking his head and said, "My brother thinks highly of me, in fact, my position as a general was given to me by a friend." I had a life-saving grace for this friend before, and he thought that I was a real person, so I was more suitable to be a general. It's just that I don't like to be restrained, and I don't want to embarrass this friend, so I reluctantly agreed to be a hand-shaking general. β
"It seems that my brother's good friend is very interesting, he gave up his position as a general and didn't do it, but let you do it, I'm afraid this is the only one in the world."
Others may not know the benefits of the position of a great general, but he does know it. A position in the military means resources, which is like a unit, as long as it can continue to climb up, the benefits obtained are naturally needless to say.
Next, the two casually recounted their respective experiences over the years, and Yan Qi's experience was far less colorful than Qin Hao's. This may be the difference between a genius and an ordinary cultivator, in Yan Qi's self-report, from the time he left Ximeng City. Next, he rode the teleportation array to the Righteous Demon Battlefield, which was the first step that any soldier would experience.
When he arrived at the Righteous Demon Battlefield, Yan Qi didn't stay too much, and rushed directly to the Hero City, and after receiving the identity token, he was assigned to the Tenth Fortress.
Perhaps out of recognition of his own strength, he began the rank challenge after entering the fortress, and the first time he successfully advanced to the rank of commander, and then through his own efforts, he continued to challenge for the next hundreds of years, and finally became a captain.
After becoming the commander of the ten thousand masters, he was appointed to become the general of the city guard, and he has been dealing with demons for many years, tepidly, and his life is quite comfortable. Now he has already completed his military tasks, so he doesn't have to go out of the city to meet the enemy at all, as long as he guards the city gate and does not break through, he can continue to sit back and relax.
There are still many generals like Yan Qi in the Righteous Path Alliance, Qin Hao can understand it, after all, not everyone has unlimited potential. When a person's cultivation reaches a bottleneck, if he continues to improve his strength and cultivation, it takes chance and courage.
However, this kind of thing can be encountered but not sought, so it can't be forced, and it can't be forced. As for courage, it is relative, and before completing the military task, we must bravely face death, otherwise we will be greeted with death.
On the field, those who generally die are masters of the Mahayana period, and as for the masters of the Tribulation, there are few sacrifices. Yan Qi was able to live so chicly, which had a lot to do with the cultivation that he was in the early stage of the tribulation before he came.
According to statistics, in a battle between the righteous and the devil, the death rate in the early Mahayana period was about 50 percent or more, while the death rate in the middle Mahayana period was 30 percent, the death rate in the late Mahayana period was 10 percent, the death rate at the peak of Mahayana was 5 percent, and the death rate of the Tribulation Combat Force was about 1 percent.
And the place where the highest death of the master of the Tribulation is not in the front-line battlefield, but mostly in the rear of the righteous demons. It is said that in Moon City, or Hero City, or Ten Thousand Demon City, dozens of tribulation masters die every year, and the causes of death are strange.
On the demon side, most of the masters of the robbery died of looting treasures.
This also happens to confirm the old proverb that people die for money, birds die for food, whether it is a mortal or a cultivator, there are not many people who can stick to their nature in the end.
After Yan Qi finished speaking, Qin Hao then talked about his experience of more than a thousand years. Qin Hao had no choice but to simply say that in addition to the process of alchemy over the years, he was refining weapons, and there were some things about the alliance arsenal in the middle, which were well known to the world, so Qin Hao said that it didn't have much to do with whether he said it or not.
When Qin Hao said that he had a good relationship with the Alliance Arsenal, he asked Qin Hao to get him some Purple Dragon series weapons and equipment. Qin Hao promised verbally, but he didn't put it into practice next.
In his opinion, the Zilong series of weapons and equipment is the hard work of Yang Zi and her scientific researchers, how can they borrow flowers to offer Buddha? He's not that cheeky.
After eating and drinking, Qin Hao gave Qi some treasures stolen by the demon clan as a gift for this meal. Unaware of the value of these treasures, he gladly accepted them, and then watched the seven of them leave.
When the teleportation array flashed, Qin Hao and the others disappeared, and when they reappeared, they had already come to the City of Heroes.
At this time, Wanqiu finally couldn't help but speak, "Brother Qin, are you teasing?" How can you even lie to an old friend? β
Qin Hao looked at the other party, his face was confused, and he asked rhetorically, "What's wrong with me?" I'm not lying! β
"Still not deceiving people, why did you tell that person that your cultivation was covered by treasures? With your strength, let alone being a great general, even if you are the commander of the coalition forces, why not? Wanqiu felt that Qin Hao was not ordinary hypocrisy at this time, as if the person she saw was not the real side of the other party.
If she follows such a person, she feels a little uneasy, after all, a person who runs a train with a mouth full of people is not easy to say, and it makes people distrustful.
"Girl, you are a strange beast, so although you have lived a long time, you don't know what human nature is. In this world, you can have many friends, but you can't guarantee that every friend is genuinely true to you. β
"Besides, we're just ordinary friends, and more than a thousand years have passed, who can really know what is going on? To put it mildly, if he takes refuge in the demons, can I still teach him to be a true friend? In our Chinese culture, there is an ancient saying called "the heart of defense is indispensable, and the heart of harm is indispensable". β
"So when we meet again, we can't guard against him? Also, it's not up to me to give away other people's things, so it doesn't seem reasonable for me to give away other people's things. If you don't believe me, we'll get to the Alliance Arsenal later, and you'll understand why I can't easily agree to give things away. β
After speaking, Qin Hao led Wanqiu and the others to the arsenal.
