Chapter 325: Long Live the Faceless Ones

With the roar of artillery fire and the ravages of magic, Holly Castle is now in the midst of war. The first wave of the offensive came from the [Dark Night], and the power they had accumulated over the years was pouring out of the nest at this moment, which was very terrifying.

Under the premise that the [Limit] has failed, they can almost single-handedly bulldoze Holly Castle.

But fortunately, reinforcements from all walks of life have also arrived one after another, and there is no problem in temporarily stabilizing the situation.

As for the representatives of the major forces, they gathered in the conference room to listen to Xu Jiang tell ghost stories.

"Hua Umbrella is a good person, I decided to hand over the remains of the gods to him." All:???

"Xu Jiang, are you okay, are you stimulated by something?"

"How can a flower umbrella be a good person? Giving him the remains of the gods didn't breed the strength of the Faceless Ones. ”

"That's right, the remains belong to Holly Castle and must not fall into the hands of the enemy." Xu Jiang understood some of the discussions, after all, it was indeed a bit ridiculous to hand over such an important force to the enemy.

But the high priest's thoughts, Xu Jiang couldn't forgive. His eyes drifted to the members of Holly Castle present, and he said indifferently: "I know what you guys are thinking, you want us to help Holly Castle get through the difficulties, and then leave the remains of the gods, and then you continue to become gods?" My answer is: don't even think about it. Xu Jiang's words made the high priest's face change greatly, and in order to ask for reinforcements, he had already paid a very high price.

Could it be that this group of people collected the money and defended the city, and wanted to take away his divine remains? Before the high priest could speak, Xu Jiang had already taken the lead in saying, "First of all, you have to understand that your [Limit] cannot help you become a god. ”

"Secondly, the remains of gods are just the corpses of gods, and the remaining divinity on them is very weak, and it is impossible for you to become a god, at most you can gain some divinity. If you want divinity, you might as well buy my cloak. Saying that, Xu Jiang sold it to Song Qixin, snatched it back with his backhand, took it out and shook it twice.

Divinity and divinity are two concepts, just like a pool and a sea, which cannot be compared at all.

"Moreover, we can't stay here for the rest of our lives, you don't have the ability to defend the gods." Xu Jiang's last sentence was a complete break from the high priest's thoughts.

In the past, the Holly Castle was powerful, whether it was [Eternal Night] or [Faceless], they all had the power to fight.

But it's a pity that in order to become gods, they listened to the nonsense of transforming the [Limit], and the current [Limit] has almost come to a standstill, and Holly Castle is not capable of defending the remains of the gods.

The best way to do this is to send the remains away as bargaining chips.

"Mr. Xu means to drive the tiger and devour the wolf." There was no shortage of leading staff officers present, and it was easy to guess Xu Jiang's intentions.

By handing over the remains to the Facelings, cutting off the enemy's greed for Holly, and then leading to a battle between the Eternal Night and the Facelings, the crisis of Holly Castle will be alleviated.

Sounds like a good idea.

"But whether we can find the remains or not, this matter alone is very difficult. [Eternal Night] and [Faceless], will there really be a fight? "It's a good strategy to drive the tiger and devour the wolf, but the other party is not a fool, and he uses the god corpse as a bargaining chip with his backhand, in exchange for benefits, and the faceless people are also earned.

The flower umbrella is too cunning, and I am afraid that the plan to send the remains of the gods may not have good results. In this regard, Xu Jiang is very confident: "Don't worry, I am sure of this plan." And taking a step back, the revival of the [Dark Jiao] at the bottom of the river in the north also needs the help of the Faceless. Xu Jiang put out a few photos of the bottom of the river, and the terrifying power of [Dark Jiao] made the scene noisy again.

Dark Jiao belongs to the category of desolate beasts, and their nature is very violent, and there is no possibility of negotiation at all. It seems that this time, I have to make a deal with the flower umbrella.

It's just that...... Didn't they gather here to fight the Eternal Night and the Faceless? How can chatting and talking turn into negotiation and settlement?

Some masters who came thousands of miles away, all with the determination to die, and now suddenly say to them, don't fight?

For a while, many eyes looked at the Rabbit City Lord. But the rabbit didn't explain much, didn't you see the evil smile on the corner of Xu Jiang's mouth?

Trading, sometimes it can also deceive people. …… After a simple explanation of the combat meeting, Xu Jiang came to the side hall for the first time.

Pushing the door in, I saw two sisters, Si Ran and Si Bu, who were already sitting together chatting. Sibu is nominally the third singer of the Faceless, but at heart, she is the vanguard of the anti-Facelings.

Well, to be precise, it's a little pioneer with a bit of a pit in his brain. has exactly the same beautiful face, but the content of this conversation makes people can't bear to look at it directly.

"Sister, I want to get married."

"Yikes! My sister is getting married? Who is the brother-in-law? ”

"I don't know."

"Huh? Don't know? So why do you want to get married? ”

"I want to have a baby, look at Xiaozhen, how cute she is! I want to raise one. ”

"Hmm~~ I want to too." Xu Jiang: ...... Is this character caused by the talent of the [singer]? I've heard that the beast is very willing to approach the pure-hearted, but I look at it, and I look at it like a fool.

Forget it, it doesn't matter. Xu Jiang approached, and the sisters also stood up.

"Xu Jiang, I heard that the little dark Jiao in the north of the city has woken up? How is it now? Are you angry? "Xu Jiang looked at Si Bu and then at Si Ran, you are really sisters, can you describe the hundred-meter thing with the word 'small'?

"He's awake, but I've helped him calm down for the time being, and after that, I still need your singing voice to soothe him." For those who can't hide secrets in their hearts, of course Xu Jiang will not give out the whole plan, but continue to implement it according to the plan of the flower umbrella.

Sure enough, Si Bu showed an embarrassed look on his face: "I also wanted to use my singing voice to appease Xiao Dark Jiao, but the flower umbrella didn't give me [tranquilizer]." It can be said that the relationship between the Facelings and Sibu is more like a cooperation.

The Faceless Crowd's hobby is to poison the whole world, causing turmoil around the world and growing the madness.

Sometimes, however, there are exceptions, and it takes Sibu to suppress the madness of the beasts. It can be said that although Sibu's movements are not restricted, if she wants to pacify the mad beast, she still needs to reach an agreement with the Faceless Ones, but among them, the [Tranquilizer] is the most critical.

The potion suppresses the whispering, and the singing soothes the mood, which complements each other.

"It's a pity that the [Tranquilizer] was developed by the Black King, and I could still ask him for some before, but as soon as he died, only the flower umbrella was left." Xu Jiang nodded and expressed understanding: "It's okay, you help me tell the flower umbrella, and say that I promised to hand over the divine remains to him and let him provide the potion." ”

"Huh? Are you sure you want to do this? ”

"Of course, but the value of the divine remains is too high, you can't bargain him for nothing, you can help me ask for more things. For example, [Mad Concentrate] and [Mad Crystal]. Sibu frowned slightly, tilted his head and thought for a moment: "These don't seem to be good things, why are you here?" If he asks, how will I answer? ”

"You tell him: I'm going to develop my own [Tranquilizer], so that I won't have to be restricted by him in the future." Xu Jiang pulled a very absurd reason, but it made Si Bu overjoyed: "Really? It would be great if it could be developed. Sibu's little face was flushed, and he looked excited: "You say, do you want us to make up an excuse to deceive the flower umbrella?" ”

"Of course it's good to be able to deceive him, but can you deceive people?"

"No, it won't."

“…… That's a! Xu Jiang rolled his eyes, knowing that this was the result, but fortunately he didn't tell her the truth.

His goal, of course, is to get the [Mad Concentrate], which can produce [Golden Soup Medicine] and completely liberate the Dark Jiao, which is Xu Jiang's strategic goal in the future.

It's just that on the surface, other excuses must be used so as not to arouse suspicion.

"But in this case, wouldn't it be too dangerous for you to hand over the divine remains to the flower umbrella?" After all, Si Ran is an astrologer, and she understands the concept of crisis better than her sister.

The Faceless Ones are already difficult to entangle, and if the other party is allowed to obtain divinity, the threat will not be suppressed.

"It doesn't matter, I'll do it." Xu Jiang picked up a cigarette and turned around and left the room in a dashing manner. …… On the other side, the flower umbrella that received the news was also a little hesitant at the moment.

Listening to the communication from Sibu in the communicator, Hua Umbrella was faintly uneasy.

"Are you sure? Xu Jiang wants to hand over the remains of the gods to me? ”

"That's right! But we're going to change more things so that we won't be limited by you in the future. ”

"Oh? Do you want to develop your own [Tranquilizer]? ”

"Yikes! How did you guess? Sister! What did he guess? "Flower umbrella: ...... He had kept Sibu in the Faceless Crowd in the hope of using a pure-hearted little girl to restrain the beasts.

So far, the results are good. Xu Jiang was forced to make a deal with him in exchange for the suppression of the Dark Jiao.

But is this thing going too smoothly? Xu Jiang is such a cunning person, and he gave up resistance so easily?

Do you want to lead yourself to a big battle with [Eternal Night]? Did he get it? He doesn't have a hard need for the gods, and even if he gets it, it's just the icing on the cake.

If he changed hands and used it as a bargaining chip and asked [Eternal Night] to help him capture Holly Castle, what would Xu Jiang do?

Considering the key to the problem, the flower umbrella decided to guard against it.

"The spiritual passage hasn't been opened yet, and no one can say for sure what will happen in the future. You ask Xu Jiang to come over, and we will sign the contract in person. ”

"Wait, I'll ask...... Xu Jiang said that we can only make an agreement verbally, and if we want to sign a contract, our asking price will be increased by 5 times. ”

"Yes." …… Listening to Hua Umbrella's reply, Xu Jiang couldn't laugh or cry. How to say that? I will clear the warehouse and deal with it, you don't want to, if you don't increase the price, you are still suspicious, right?

Xu Jiang was originally worried that asking for too much [Mad Concentrate Agent] would make Hua Umbrella suspicious. Now, forcing himself to double the price by 5 times, in one round of trading, he can make 60 bottles of [Golden Soup Medicine], which is of great strategic significance for the future.

For this reason, Xu Jiang also had to incarnate as a courier brother and personally send the contract over, and the two of them modified and improved it little by little before the battle, and finally made the contract.

The general content is as follows: [The flower umbrella provides various materials, and guarantees that within a month, it will not attack Holly Castle.

[Xu Jiang is trying his best to get the divine remains. And the remains must be handed over to the flower umbrella within 3 days.

In this contract, the flower umbrella actually played a trick. The three days indicated in the contract are not the three days after the remains are obtained, but the three days from the date of signing the contract.

This also means that if Xu Jiang can't get the divine remains, he will definitely be punished by the contract after three days.

The punishment for breach of contract by both parties is very simple: [Xu Jiang's rank is not allowed to advance an inch for life. [All doppelgangers of the flower umbrella have been erased.]

This kind of contract, once signed, is very restrictive. The flower umbrella is nothing, although the punishment is heavy, but he really wants to get the divine remains, and it is not a big deal if he does not attack Holly Castle for a month.

But Xu Jiang is very troublesome. Although it is not impossible to erase the curse after the breach of contract, it is difficult to eradicate it, and Xu Jiang's level growth rate in the future will definitely be limited.

Therefore, in Hua Yu's view, this contract must be earned, and the price he paid is just some materials, which can limit Xu Jiang's growth, which is a good result.

But can this really be limited? What is the purpose of leveling up? For skill points! But what is the use of Xu Jiang getting skill points?

Pretty? Of course, Xu Jiang didn't want to take advantage of this loophole, he really wanted to hand over the divine remains to the flower umbrella.

…… I have to say that Xu Jiang's concession to the flower umbrella is really too exaggerated. So much so that as soon as he returned to the base, he was pulled into the conference room by the rabbit city lord to talk.

"Xu Jiang, did you really sign that agreement?"

"That's right! Didn't you say yes, send out the remains of the gods to keep you safe. ”

"But it's too risky! Can your plan to drive the tiger and devour the wolf really succeed? ”

"Of course, the reason is: Hua Yu knows a lot, and he shouldn't know a lot of information." …… The last time I went to negotiate with my sister-in-law, the flower umbrella came out of the side, exposing many problems.

Outside the city, [Dark Night] is still constantly probing, and is not in a hurry to launch a general attack. This means that the opening time of the spiritual passage is likely to be what the flower umbrella said: 'two days later'.

Thinking about it again, my sister-in-law could come in a hurry, but she still sensed the leakage of the leader's breath, and hurriedly borrowed more than a hundred flying beasts and rushed thousands of miles.

And the ground forces assembled by the umbrella need to be arranged at least half a month in advance.

"The top brass of Holly Castle doesn't know, the entire Human Alliance doesn't know, and even the [White Night] camp is temporarily sensed. Why did he Faceless know about it half a month ago? Xu Jiang raised questions.

The rabbit pondered for a moment: "Maybe he also planted spies and has been lurking in Holly Castle?" ”

"There are spies, but they are no ordinary spies. The inside information of [Eternal Night] is not so easy to obtain. "Knowing the specific time of the gods' remains, knowing the difference between the camps of [Black Night] and [White Night], and even knowing that my sister-in-law's real name is Mo Qingyan, these pieces of information are secrets in absolute secrecy.

The only person who can get this information at the same time is the upper echelons of [Eternal Night]. And it has to be in the near future, staying in Holly Castle and keeping an eye on the situation of the gods: the high-level.

"It's Song Qixin!" The Rabbit City Lord was stunned. Is it that big to play? Three-sided agent! Thinking about it, the only one who can obtain so much information at the same time and report the news as soon as possible is Song Qixin, the layout of the faceless crowd is so terrifying?

"No, maybe it's just the flower umbrella alone."

"How?"

"I once asked you, who has ever seen the appearance of the flower umbrella?"

"No one has seen him, and it seems that he has been wearing a mask since he appeared. And his clones are all headless. ”

"Yes, that's the way it is. But who told you that the doppelganger must have no head? The real appearance of the flower umbrella can't be Song Qixin's appearance? Xu Jiang's speculation was so bold that the rabbit was stunned.

But when you think about it, it seems really possible. Headless and holding an umbrella, this is the sign of a flower umbrella clone, but who told you that it must be an iron law?

This may also be a false signal deliberately left by the flower umbrella to the world. The remaining clones of the flower umbrella haven't even heard of their names, can't they replace Song Qixin's identity and enter the [dark night] early?

In this way, the flower umbrella has always worn a mask, which can be explained, he is helping his doppelganger and hiding his identity.

"The reason why I doubt Song Qixin is also because his recent actions are too conspicuous."

"Too conspicuous?"

"Yes, from my point of view, [Black Night] has endured for hundreds of years just to welcome back his gods. But at the most critical moment, all kinds of high-profile provocations provoked us. ”

"You mean, Song Qixin is deliberately exposing the existence of [Dark Night] and wants us to fight against each other?"

"That's pretty much it, so, it's time for me to perform." Raising his eyebrows, Xu Jiang and the rabbit looked at each other and smiled, both showing a wicked smile.

…… After discussing the details, Xu Jiang just explained the gathering of the seventeen groups, and Deacon Wan came up again.

"Mr. Xu, I wonder if you have time now?"

"Of course there's no time, I'm ready to go to fight, what are you looking for me?" Xu Jiang looked at this sneaky man, he really had a bad impression, and was ready to send him away at will.

can't stand it, the other party is here to send money! Deacon Wan smiled, glanced around mysteriously, and asked softly, "At the meeting just now, Mr. Xu said that he wanted to sell the divine cloak?" We're here to ask for a quote. ”

"......" To be honest, Xu Jiang is actually just making an analogy, the high priest is crazy, he really wants to buy it!

"Are you sure, it's not cheap."

"Yes, yes, we know, we inquired about the auction that day, it was bought by Song Qixin at a high price, there must be a deep meaning, we are willing to pay twice the price to buy, how about it?"

"Twice? 60,002 heterocrystals? ”

"Yes, you see ......"

"Take it, trade it now." Seeing Deacon Wan happily holding his cloak and leaving, Xu Jiang almost didn't laugh out loud.

A torn piece of clothing, snatched back, can be sold again, it is really a waste of use. …… After taking care of everything, he handed over Guanyin's [Golden Soup Medicine] to the golden carp, and asked it to accompany Sibu to appease the dark Jiao.

Xu Jiang waved his hand and prepared to go to war. The bear pulled out a dull hair, flicked it in front of him, and a passage leading to the spiritual realm appeared in front of him.

"For this operation, the seventeen groups will just follow me." After all, it's a trick, it's not too convenient for too many people to participate, just lead your own family to go.

When you enter the spiritual realm, what you see is a tornado storm that covers the sky and the sun, running through the heavens and the earth. It seems that the entire spiritual domain is collapsing, and the tearing power of the bun opened the group shield for the first time.

And not far away, Song Qixin was controlling an instrument, and all kinds of energy were being transmitted to the storm, which seemed to be speeding up.

Seeing Xu Jiang's arrival, Song Qixin was obviously a little caught off guard.

"Damn, the spiritual passage hasn't been opened yet, how could you get in!" Song Qixin held his bow and arrow, as if facing a great enemy.

He knew that he was not the opponent of the seventeenth group, but now in this situation, he had no way back but to fight to the death.

Thankfully, his mission was complete. The [Limit] is destroyed, the remains of the gods are about to appear, and when the passage is opened, the Holly Castle will also be destroyed.

And just when Song Qixin was about to die in his post. Xu Jiang took a step forward, nodded at Song Qixin, and shouted, "Long live the Faceless Ones." "Song Qixin: ?
