Chapter 143: Eight Kings Gather
In Violet's estimate, it would take at least fifteen days to travel from Xianzhi City to Daliu River through a large plain and three large rivers, and Jiangnan would take at least fifteen days - this was a very accurate estimate, but unfortunately, she did not take into account Jiangnan's bad taste...... After leaving home, Jiang Nan had a whim, hey, brother, I am already a middle-grade necromantic totemist, why do you still go to the Daliu River with your legs?
So he picked up a carriage abandoned by the plague on the side of the road, and asked Gigi to go into the city to buy some heavy canvas for navigation, and made a large hot air balloon out of these materials himself.
As for the power of the hot air balloon...... Gigi crouched under the balloon's vent, exhaling, exhaling, puffing out his cheeks and blowing on it as if he were playing with his life.
Uh, the lethal version of Iron Roar still works!
The hot air balloon fluttered in the clouds, and four days later, before I knew it, I was on the banks of the Daliu River.
Click, click!
Zach crouched behind the guardrail, shaking the map while looking sympathetically at Gigi, who was blowing up balloons with red and swollen cheeks.
"Well, find a place where no one is around, and then we'll go find the Dragon......"
Jiang Nan was holding an iron radish bigger than Ji Ji's black head, carving roses with a wooden knife, and said without raising his head.
This iron radish has a very good history: on the night he left Xianzhi City, Jiang Nan thought of going to see Julian, and his heart beat faster very uncompromisingly, so he went to the Imperial Culinary Academy, wanting to ask the three senior brothers what is the mystery of the fifth-layer knife realm, and can he get some face back in front of Yurian...... But what was depressing was that the three senior brothers had mysterious and obscene expressions on their faces, "Do you want to know the mystery of the fifth layer?" hehe, hey, hey, hey!"
Just when Xiang Nan shuddered from their laughter, the senior brother threw him an oversized iron radish and a small wooden knife with no sharpness at all, "Use this wooden knife to carve this iron radish into a rose,"
Yes, here we go again!
Jiang Nan didn't look at it, he turned his head and punched two feet away behind him, and sure enough, the third senior brother who was about to float by was beaten with peach blossoms on his face, his nose was blue and his face was swollen and he lay on the ground, his limbs twitched and said, "I don't understand, well, I won't tell you why, when you can carve iron radish with a wooden knife, you will realize the fifth level of knife work......"
So Jiangnan carried an oversized iron radish on the road.
"Alas!"
After taking a picture of the carrot that had been carved for four days, but was unscathed, Jiang Nan sighed, "Zack, haven't you landed yet?"
Click, click! Zach reacted strangely, pointing to somewhere on the ground, her eyes widening as if she had seen the rib she had lost.
"What's wrong?" Jiangnan immersed himself in carving turnips, and didn't notice Zack's weirdness.
Leave your turnip alone, something big is wrong!Zach grabbed Jiangnan by the collar and pressed him against the fence.
At first glance, Jiang Nan's eyes widened.
The wind on both sides of the Daliu River is beautiful, the grass is green, and occasionally there are one or two little rabbits running among the grass, holding a beautiful picture of natural harmony!
But what about people?
The empire has gathered 500,000 troops on both sides of the Daliu River, 500,000, even ants have a large area of black pressure, but at this moment, there is not a single Rhine soldier wearing red and black battle armor on the ground!
"Well, I'm on the wrong track!"
Jiang Nan took out the map in his arms and looked at it, yes, this is the front line of the Daliu River, and the ruins of the military stove faintly visible on the ground also show that he is not on the wrong path.
Did the 500,000 troops evaporate from the world?
Jiang Nan's Adam's apple grunted, "Zach, did you notice the movement of the army on the way here?"
Zach twisted his little butt and looked at the sky with his eyes, which said, "I'm sorry, I'm just looking at the scenery!"
“!@#¥%......”
Jiang Nan flew in circles in the sky for a long time, but he didn't find the shadow of the army, and seeing that it was the defense line of the Zhanya Empire further ahead, he had to let the hot air balloon turn around.
Could it be that the army has been slaughtered by Zhanya?
This is impossible, although Long Duo is in a coma in bed, but Lei Ao and the Rhine family elders who came to take over the army are not stupid, and it is impossible to defeat the 500,000 troops in three or four days.
Jiang Nan was thinking about it, and suddenly a mountain shrouded in thick fog suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Master, the Sky Cliff is in that mountain, should you continue to look for the army, or should you go to find Julian first?" Gigi, who blew up the balloon, gasped.
I can't find the army, even if my brother I succeed in convincing Julian, what's the use? Jiang Nan wanted to say wait, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw an unusually familiar figure on the edge of the dense fog in the valley!
It was a farm maid when she was a slave, and she bullied Jiangnan...... Laura!
She was walking towards a carriage.
After Veran disappeared, there was no news from Lola, could it be that the people in this carriage were ............ The hot air balloon landed outside the valley, and Gangnam asked Gigi and Zach to wait here, and he quickly caught up with Lola.
He didn't know why he was so anxious, but he couldn't control his pace at the thought that the person in the carriage might be Veran.
Jiang Nan told himself that if he could find the missing Veran, Long Duo would definitely reward him with a lot of gold coins! Well, brother, I came here for the reward...... He said behind Lola, "Lola!"
Laura was holding a glass of sour plum juice that she got out of nowhere, turned her head to see that it was Jiangnan, and was taken aback, but her expression immediately became arrogant, "Who was I at the time, it turned out to be you, hey, do people want to call you a professor, or is it a pig-raising Roddy?"
It's strange, Lola was very respectful to the professor when she was in Sun City, and she wanted to take off her clothes and show up immediately, so now she knows that Jiang Nan is the professor, but she still dares to speak in such a weird way?
Jiang Nan was in no mood to pay attention to Laura, he stared at the carriage, and suddenly felt that he didn't know how to speak, "Is that you?"
"Hey, I'm talking to you, didn't you hear?" Lola saw that Jiang Nan didn't pay attention to herself, and said cross-legged: "You cheap breed has a temper, right, didn't you beat you enough before?"
Jiang Nan finally realized that Laura's attitude was wrong, and he was angry, and he reached out to clasp Laura's wrist.
But suddenly, as if his palm had touched an invisible iron plate, he stopped in front of Laura.
"Is this the Earl of Blade?"
A figure stepped out of the carriage, a young man of twenty-five or sixteen years old, dressed in a light blue tight-fitting military uniform, with silver hair tied back to his waist, his slender figure and elegant appearance, if it were not for the military uniform, I am afraid that everyone would regard him as a gentle court poet.
"Hmm, are you?" Jiang Nan acquiesced to his identity, and he felt a mysterious pressure on this young man - the invisible iron plate that protected Lola was made by this person!
"On both sides of the Great Stream, my name is a taboo, and it is not to be mentioned. The young man motioned for Lola to return to his side, and said with a smile, "But is it that His Excellency the Earl has come to this Heavenly Cliff for Julian?"
Jiang Nan puffed out his chest aristocraticly, "Sort of, you're also here for Yurian?"
The young man smiled but did not answer, and returned to the carriage, "Since the Count wants to see Julian, I will not bother, Laura, let's go!"
The carriage slowly drove into the thick fog.
At this moment, Jiang Nan felt very aggrieved, in all fairness, this young man asked two words and then shook his hand and left, which was extremely impolite, but Jiang Nan felt that his words and deeds were very natural, as if it was a natural law that he was rude to people...... "It's really a sense of superiority brought by being in a high position all year round!"
Just when Jiang Nan was in a daze, a voice came from behind him, commenting on the young man's actions.
A tuxedo boy in his thirties also walked into the thick fog.
"Listen to them, you are the Earl of Blade of Reims, the professor who has been honored with the future scroll of the totem spectrum?" The tuxedo boy bowed gracefully, perfect for impeccable aristocratic etiquette.
"Elegant sir, who are you?" Jiang Nan secretly guarded, his eyebrows were not necessarily enemies, and polite ones were not necessarily friends.
The man in the costume plucked a rose from the chest of the black tuxedo, put it under his nose and sniffed, "Since they are all here to find Julian, why don't you go with you?"
Jiang Nan took a deep look at the roses in his hand, and said sincerely: "It's an honor to be able to walk with the Duke!"
The young man in the costume smiled, obviously he was satisfied, Jiang Nan had already guessed his identity in the action of sniffing the roses.
The two traveled more than ten miles of mountain roads in the dense fog, and gradually, the scenery in front of them became clear, and a towering skyscraper cliff appeared in front of them, and at this moment, a loud shout came into Jiangnan's ears, "Julian, you can't fucking get out, and then be a turtle with a shrunken head, the old lady will kill it!"
What a domineering temper!
Jiang Nan followed the prestige, and saw a red-haired middle-aged woman standing at the bottom of the cliff, pointing at the air like a shrew and shouting and scolding, and beside the middle-aged woman...... "Veran!?"
Jiangnan couldn't help but shout!
Wei Lan was wearing a snow-white tight long dress, her appearance and temperament had not changed much, she turned her head to look at Jiang Nan, her body trembled violently, and she rushed towards Jiang Nan. But after only a few steps, she suddenly returned to the woman in red.
"Roddy, this is not the place for you to come, get out of here, the old lady doesn't want to see you!"
Hearing this familiar irritable voice, Jiang Nan's heart was inexplicably hot, but he couldn't help but say coldly, "Miss Weilan, I don't want to see you either, it's just Old Man Longduo......"
"Don't mention Long Duo to me, the old lady has nothing to do with the Rhine family anymore!" Wei Lan waved his hand impatiently, "Didn't you hear Laniang's words, get out immediately, there will be a battle of the Heavenly Ranking here!" "Subtext, if you don't leave, do you want to stay here and die?"
Battle of the Heavenly Rankings!?
Jiang Nan was shocked by this term and broke out in a cold sweat, and when he looked at it, it turned out that many people had gathered under the cliff...... An old woman was looking at Jiangnan with a smile, as if to say, 'You are actually here', she is the tenth on the totem list, and it should be in the barracks of Margaret Thatcher!
And beside Thatcher stood a majestic soldier in black armor, according to the description of the military newspaper, he must be the second strongest man in the heavenly list, Marshal Tiemu!
The ninth strongest person on the heavenly list that Sun City has ever seen, Qian Duoduo dozed off beside Tiemu!
And the red-haired middle-aged woman who scolded ...... Fifth on the heavenly list, Mrs. Wooding!
I took another look at the tuxedo boy who was walking all the way...... Jiang Nan's voice was a little bitter, "Tiemu, Thatcher, Wooding, Qian Duoduo, and counting you - the third strongest person in the heavenly list, Duke Rose! and Yurian above...... Hmm, the six totem kings are gathered in one place, is the original continent going to change the sky?"
Duke Rose smiled slightly, "It's seven, Your Excellency has overlooked him." ”
Pointing to the young man in the gorgeous costume who accompanied Lola, he was looking at Veran gently, "The sixth place on the Totem Heavenly List, the abolished prince of the Zhanya Empire, Hegram!"
"The Seven Totem Kings Gather at the ...... of the Sky Cliff"
Jiang Nan's voice was almost moaning.
But a quiet voice corrected: "Duke Rose, you also miscalculated, it's eight!"
A girl with a face as tranquil as a voice appeared at the top of the cliff, dressed in white, with a quiet posture with a bit of elegance. It was Anya, who used to pretend to be Yurian's maidservant and was subdued by Jiangnan knife workers.
"There's even a totem king?" Duke Rose smiled slightly, "Is that you?"
"Anya is just a handmaiden, and she doesn't deserve to be compared to you......"
Anya smiled lightly and looked at somewhere in the sky, and said with a smile, "Half a month later, the Natural Association will hold a 'Return Ceremony' in the Sky Cliff, on the eve of the ceremony, so many Heavenly List powerhouses occupy the Sky Cliff, the Nature Association is bound to make some reactions, is Anya right? One of the five old stars of the Nature Association, Your Excellency Yuezun!?"
"A maidservant girl has such courage and ability, Yurian is really not simple!"
An ethereal voice came from mid-air, but Yuezun didn't show his form!
Not on the totem spectrum, but has the right to formulate the totem heavenly list, and the strength has definitely reached the level of the totem king, hearing the appearance of such a moon venerable, the eyes of the heavenly list powerhouses under the cliff became cold.
"Yuezun, the return ceremony is half a month later, and now the Tianmu Cliff is not yet under your Natural Association, if you want to see the excitement, just watch it honestly, and want to do it...... Hmph, I'll be with you to the end!"
Mrs. Woodin issued a warning to the sky, and then said to Anya, "After a day of shrinking turtle, Julian sent you a servant girl to show her head, it seems that the old lady's face is not enough!"
Anya flew down the cliff and walked past Mrs. Woodin, "Mrs. Wooding misunderstood, Anya is not here to see your ......"
Coming to Jiangnan, Ying Ying smiled, "Master, Miss, please go up the cliff to see you!"
"Julian, you're so fucking deceitful!"
The eight totem kings gathered at the Tianmu Cliff, Yurian ignored anyone, but was only polite to Jiang Nan, which made Mrs. Wu Ding furious, pointing at Jiang Nan's nose and scolding: "What kind of thing is this negative man, he dares to rank in front of the old lady!"
"Mrs. Wooding, Master Roddy is the person Anya respects the most, please give him some respect as well!"
Anya's face was slightly gloomy, "In addition, Anya only invited Master Luo Di, not to despise your status as a celestial list, but compared to you, Master Luo Di is more valued by my young lady!"
