Chapter 60: The Wolf's Snack
The elite team has a total of twenty people, including three fifth-level warriors, two fifth-level magicians, and the rest are fourth-level combat power warriors. This is also after the recent crazy expansion of power, through recruitment, through the support of the noble lords who have been attached, and Guta was ruthless, and simply distributed the five pieces of magic equipment given by the Earl to the five strongest people.
In his opinion, such a group of people, in the form of scattered hunters, would definitely be able to go to the Dragon Ruins smoothly.
The momentum of Ruta's development can no longer be allowed to soar, if Ruta is supported by such a large mine with unknown reserves, his strength will undoubtedly skyrocket, and at that time, he and Iniesta will be completely disadvantaged in the struggle for inheritance.
In the blink of an eye, the elite team had been on set off for four days, and the captain had only sent back a message to Guta after successfully passing through Yanlong City, and there had been no news since then. Guta used the teleportation charm seven times in a row, but he didn't get a response, and he couldn't help but be anxious.
At this moment, news came from Dragon Descending City that the parliamentary delegation had set off for Dragon Ruins.
Before the elite team set off, Guta had repeatedly explained that no matter what, he had to find out the specific location of the mine, find out Meng Yang's attitude clearly, and report it quickly, and it was up to him to decide.
But now that the expedition team has set off, there is no news from the elite team, which has to make Guta anxious.
If it weren't for the fact that the old guy hadn't swallowed his breath, Guta would have already set up his troops and horses, killed the Yanlong Territory, and expanded his territory to the Dragon Ruins in one go.
No matter how anxious Guta was, nothing changed, and the elite team was like a stone sinking into the sea, and no news came back, so Guta had to watch the expedition team swagger through his own checkpoint and go to the Dragon Ruins.
The convoy of the Zig Chamber of Commerce, Guta still collects tolls, but the inspection group with the parliamentary sign, Ruta not only did not receive a copper coin, but also pasted a bunch of horse material upside down, a meal of good wine and meat, which couldn't help but make him hate it.
He swore that once he ascended to the viscount position, he would first recruit strong thieves and kill the old fellows of the council. This group of wolves that eat people and don't spit out bones come like flies with a fishy smell, but they can't be slapped with their hands. After all, they had the right to impeach the barons under their rule to the king. Guta didn't want to lose his position as a baron before he sat down for the viscountship.
Now, the ancient tower has to wait and see what happens. He was secretly surprised why Iniesta didn't react at all and didn't send anyone to the Dragon Ruins. Could it be that guy thought that just by virtue of the old guy's public announcement in the martial arts arena, he would be able to sit firmly on the viscount throne?
An illegitimate child, what qualifications does he have to command the dragon leader?
Guta thought hatefully, the teacup in his hand crushed to pieces.
Bing Xiaoji led the delegation for seven days, and finally left the territory of Yanlong, stepped into the territory of Longxu, far away, he saw a tall notice board standing beside the avenue, which looked extremely strange.
Bing Xiaoji's magic power had already broken through fifty-five points, if it wasn't for the Haosen family's great kindness to him in the past, he would have gone to Dulong City to develop, where would he still stay in this poor and remote place?
But Bing Xiaoji had an agreement with the Haosen family in advance, and this time, he would leave the Dragon Descending City and leave the Haosen family. The Hausen family has agreed.
Bing Xiaoji was different from the others in the expedition, although he was also a recruiter for the noble lords, he had always had a verbal agreement with the Haosen family, and there was no specific written contract. However, over the years, Bing Xiaoji has also made a lot of contributions to the Haosen family.
Bing Xiaoji disagreed with the expansion ambitions of the Haosen family, the Haosen family itself did not have outstanding professionals, but just occupied a valuable parliamentary seat in the Dragon Descending Territory with the light of a distant relative. Bing Xiaoji's stay in the Haosen family is largely due to the face of that relative.
That person is a relatively well-known magic caster in Panlong City, and it is said that he has a deep relationship with the royal magic caster. On behalf of the Haosen family, Bing Xiaoji has given this person several gifts.
Originally, the Haosen family was just a small lord family that did not enter the stream, and after a hundred years of development, it was not qualified to advance to the viscount, but with a little kinship with this magic caster, no one dared to provoke it in the dragon descending realm, and even Ebreth had to give some face. Because of this, the Hausen family grew rapidly, and firmly occupied a parliamentary seat, claiming to be the richest lord of the Dragon Descending Territory after the Viscount.
Bing Xiaojiben hopes that by serving the Haosen family, he can repay a favor in the past, and can build some relationship with the magic caster, and can order a piece of magic equipment. But the magician was too arrogant, and Bing Xiaoji went to Panlong several times, and all he saw was someone else's servant.
Bing Xiaoji finally despaired and decided to leave the Haosen family to find another way. He remembered that the lord of Longxu was Meng Yang, who was in the limelight in the martial arts arena in the first half of the year. Bing Xiaoji felt that Meng Yang was really a lucky guy, he shined in the ring and survived, and was lucky enough to be given by the Viscount as a private territory in Longxu, and was lucky to find mineral deposits in it. He was jealous, if he had such luck, he would have spent money to find a relationship a long time ago, and successfully became a small lord and became a nobleman, why would he act according to people's eyes everywhere?
Bing Xiaoji suddenly slowed down the speed of the iron horse, he squinted his eyes and tried to understand with his heart, as a fifth-level magician, Bing Xiaoji's perception was quite keen, he found that as soon as he entered the territory of the Dragon Ruins, the concentration of heaven and earth aura seemed to become much stronger, and it seemed that there were heaven and earth aura surging towards the Dragon Ruins from all directions.
"What's going on? Even if it's an ordinary great magician or a high-level warrior, when meditating, don't think about mobilizing such a wide range of heaven and earth aura, what's so strange about the dragon ruins? This Meng Yang is really unusual, it seems that you have to be careful, but don't despise this guy too much, the boat capsized in the gutter will be laughing and generous." ”
Bing Xiaoji thought silently, only to realize that he had come to the tall billboard.
Bing Xiaoji looked over, and immediately his complexion changed several times one after another.
"Hahaha, you see, that Meng Yang is really an arrogant person who doesn't know the height of the sky. If you look at what is written on this billboard, it is simply arrogant to the extreme! A small territory with an actual usable area of only more than 1,000 mu dares to put up such an arrogant billboard? It seems that most of it is due to the fact that it has obtained a large mine, its strength has soared, and its self-confidence has exploded, right?"
An old man pointed to the sign and laughed wildly.
For a while, everyone in the delegation saw the words on the billboard: Stop, this is private territory, and anyone who trespasses is violating the laws of the empire. If there is something important, you can go to the checkpoint a kilometer ahead to report, and you can only pass if you are allowed to pass.
Even Bing Xiaoji couldn't help but laugh wildly.
In the empire, which lord who has obtained a territory is not a private domain and is not protected by the laws of the empire? But why is there a war between lords breaking out every day? Why is it that a lord with an elite army, a lord with superior strength, as long as the weak lord does not give him benefits, can easily find an excuse to lead a large army into someone else's territory? What private property, what law, in the face of strength and interests, is simply bullshit!
Everyone in the delegation is well aware of this. Their masters are also good enforcers of the law of big fish eating small fish, and they are used to annexation, blackmail, oppression, extortion, intimidation and other aristocratic methods, but in the end, whoever has the big fist, whose word is the law.
Seeing this sign, dozens of people in the inspection group almost laughed on their backs, what a hillbilly, I haven't seen any country lords in the world!
In the midst of everyone's wild laughter, the iron horses under their crotches suddenly stirred in unison, and their hooves kept paddling on the ground, as if they wanted to turn around and flee, and immediately everyone quickly grabbed the reins and tried their best to control them.
What's going on, how could the mount be frightened?
While everyone was in shock, suddenly, Bing Xiaoji saw a huge and hideous wolf head flash from the side of the billboard, and a pair of blood-red eyes were glaring at them with blood.
"Oh no, it's a mad wolf! Hurry up and plug your ears! Beware of its stinging roar!"
Bing Xiaoji retreated a few meters with his horses and horses, and shouted loudly in panic, while his hands and feet were busy looking for something to plug his ears, but in a hurry, where could he get such a suitable thing to plug his ears?
Not everyone knows the name of the mad wolf very well, at least most of the people in the expedition have never even heard of it. They heard Bing Xiaoji's screams and didn't think so.
In their opinion, this demon wolf is just as tall as a rhinoceros, and his appearance is a little more fierce, and they are a group of fifty people, all of whom are professionals above level four, and they are still afraid of such a demon wolf?
However, suddenly, Bing Xiaoji stopped looking for the earplug item with a pale face, and muttered in his mouth: "It's over, oh my God, how can there be so many crazy wolves in the Dragon Ruins? No, Lao Tzu doesn't want to die here!"
"Apnir, plug your ears and get ready to flee back!"
Bing Xiaoji's magic flickered, and he shouted eagerly at the magic guards beside him.
Amonil, who had cooperated with him for many years, suddenly urged his fighting spirit, and at the same time, as soon as Bing Xiaoji's palm flipped, a delicate magic wand less than a foot long appeared in his hand, but in just four or five breaths, he completed the recitation of a mantra of the levitation technique.
A halo of magic shone from the wand, enveloping him and Amonil's bodies, swaying off the horse's back and floating into the air.
The reason why magicians are revered by the world is that they can surpass the limits of human beings and can "fly" in the air, although the levitation technique is only a third-level magic, which is very superficial, but in the eyes of the world, a levitation technique is already a great magic.
Everyone in the delegation was stunned, watching Bing Xiaoji, who led the team, suddenly cast a levitation technique and took his magic guard into the air, at this time, suddenly one of them screamed: "Oh my God, there are so many wolves!
Only then did everyone find in horror that at some point, in front of and behind them, hundreds of huge demon wolves like rhinoceros elephants appeared, staring at the big blood-red eyes, wanting to choose people to devour.
For a while, the expedition team really began to turn on their backs, and their fighting spirit began to flicker one after another.
Suddenly, the wolves suddenly raised their heads and let out a sharp howl in unison.
"Soul Scream!"
"Ah~~~~~~h
Bing Xiaoji, who was trying to escape with his magic guards using the levitation technique in mid-air, suddenly let out a terrible scream, and actually fell from the air like a weightless meteorite with Amoniel, and at the same time, the sound waves of the stabbing soul roar drowned the expedition like a tide.
Ten minutes later, the wolves vanished, and even the members of the expedition team, their mounts, weapons, and belongings were gone. The place was as clean as a hurricane, and as calm as if nothing had happened.
The wolves howled, and at the checkpoint thousands of kilometers away, none of the Dragon Ruins guards on duty heard a sound.
Only next to the tall arrow tower behind the Dragon Ruins Main Castle, Meng Yang, with a solemn face, muttered, "The demon wolf's dim sum is also a little too diligent, right? ”
