Chapter 457: Protector

Who is this?" Su He looked at the smiling white-robed man in front of him and asked with some confusion, he naturally knew that this man was the one who jumped out of the ground during the previous war, but the specific origin was not clear.

"This is my apotheus. Jian Ji looked at the white-robed man and said lightly, "He can also be regarded as my master, and you can call him the Sword King." ”

"How dare you call yourself the Sword King in front of the Qingshuang Sword. The protector chuckled, "I just know a little about kendo, and I don't dare to be king." ”

"It's all trivial. Suhe grinned, "I've never been interested in the affairs of the Ancient Cultivation Association, and I've never fought for the so-called title. ”

"With the ability of the Qingshuang Sword, he naturally doesn't care about these false names. The apologists smiled and said, "If we have the chance, we can learn from each other and confirm each other." ”

"Yes. Suhe nodded, and it was a matter of satisfying the matter.

Xiao Lin looked at the smiling white-robed man, and muttered in his heart: "Sword King, it should be another title of Gu Xiu, and it is the same thing as Sword King, but I don't know how much ability this Sword King has?"

"Protector, what's that?" Mu Xuanyi asked in a whisper.

"This is an ancient name, it is the name of the last era, and it generally appears in the sect. Liu Shan explained, "In order to continue to develop, each sect will select a few potential children among the disciples of the next generation to focus on training. ”

"It's like a training camp. Xiao Lin whispered.

"That's right, that's what it means. Liu Shan nodded, "It's just that the world in that era was even more chaotic than we are now, the country could not dominate, and the sect was the power that ruled the world, so from time to time amazing battles would break out, and many children would be broken into the battlefield before they could grow up at all, resulting in the death of many geniuses." ”

"So you have to send someone to protect them. Qin Ke touched his chin and said, "That person is the protector." ”

"Yes. Before Liu Shan could speak, the white-robed man known as the "Sword King" chuckled and said, "It's just that I'm not good at taking care of people, and this kid has suffered a lot with me." ”

Jian Ji smiled at the Sword King: "No, if it weren't for you, I would have died many times ago, and I wouldn't have come to this day." ”

"So your plan to replace the City Lord's Mansion has something to do with the sect behind you?" the griffin looked at Jian Ji and asked, "What is the name of your sect?" Now that those ancient sects in this world have long disappeared, or they are living in seclusion outside the mountains and forests and no longer participate in the tedious affairs of the world, I would like to know what your sect is called?"

Jian Ji smiled softly and said apologetically: "The affairs of the sect cannot be casually revealed to outsiders, please understand." ”

"Tell me about your plans, what are your plans. Su He said softly, she had been planning to replace the City Lord's Mansion over the years, and she must have collected a lot of useful information, and he was not very interested in the origin of Jian Ji, everyone has their own secrets, and sometimes it is not good to get to the bottom of it too much, and it is easy to turn against each other if she is really in a hurry.

"This is important information that we just got a while ago. Jian Ji said softly, she waved her hand to signal Su He and the others to sit down, they were now in a closed hall deep in the aisle, surrounded by tables and chairs, and there were some drinks on the table for Xiao Lin and his party to eat.

"Tell me about it. Suhe sat down and looked at Jian Ji and waited for the other party to continue.

"The City Lord's Mansion, like us, has also built a space underground. Jian Ji said lightly, "And the time of existence is even longer than ours, our space is mainly to preserve goods and prevent them from being snatched by others, but the City Lord's Mansion is different." ”

"What do you mean by that?" asked the griffon.

"About three months ago, we detected a powerful wave of energy moving underground. Kenhime explained, "Because this force is mainly underneath, it didn't attract much attention, but we managed to catch it, and the auction house immediately opened an investigation into the property." ”

"And then?" Sukh asked.

"In the next three months, we would sometimes find that strange energy fluctuations, sometimes strong, sometimes weak, but as we detected them more and more, we gradually grasped the source of the energy fluctuations. ”

"City Lord's Mansion?" said Suhe, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes. Jian Ji nodded, "Then we began to slowly investigate what the City Lord's Mansion was doing, and some good hands were also sent to infiltrate, but the City Lord's Mansion was heavily guarded, and every time it was in vain, and it was almost detected by the other party." ”

"Indeed, there are many local authorities and ambushes. Su He nodded sympathetically, he and Lin Yin'er were almost planted there, which made him very impressed.

"So it's impossible to determine what that energy is coming from?" Yang Gang whispered from the side.

"It's supposed to be a strange beast. Kenji spoke.

"Strange beasts?" Su He was stunned, "Aren't you unable to investigate?"

"It's true that we can't go deeper, but we have analyzed that energy in depth, and even risked intercepting some of it. Kenji said softly, "We can tell that it is not an energy fluctuation that belongs to a human, but an existence like an alien beast. ”

"I see. Su He nodded, and then he seemed to think of something, "No wonder your location will be exposed, it is estimated that when the other party's energy was intercepted, the City Lord's Mansion took the opportunity to sense it, so your underground secret room will be exposed." ”

"That's how it should be. Kenji sighed and said, "I shouldn't have taken the risk of intercepting that energy fluctuation in the first place. ”

"There are gains and losses, just get back the losses you have suffered. The Sword King persuaded from the side, "But that puppet is really powerful, and it has a pair of golden eyes. He seemed to be recalling the previous battle, because of the special place, he didn't dare to let go of his hands and feet to fight the enemy seriously, once he used his full strength, the foundation accumulated by the Order Auction House over the years would probably be destroyed, and if that thing was destroyed, they might not have a chance to counterattack the City Lord's Mansion.

"We've determined the exact location of the other side's sub-base, but it's a real problem to get there. Jian Ji said softly, "After the other party gets that piece of fragment, I'm afraid they will definitely guard against it." ”

"I'm actually more concerned about the beast. Suhe said softly, "What kind of being lives underground for many years, and is worthy of such a painstaking operation of the City Lord's Mansion. He thought as he touched his chin, Jian Ji may not know the origin of the City Lord's Mansion, but they understood very well, the City Lord's Mansion was just a front, and behind them stood the mysterious organization.

It's always a good thing to be on the side of that mysterious organization, and it is estimated that a big conspiracy is brewing, which makes Su He a little worried in his heart, and feels that he should ask the Tianxiang Empire for reinforcements, and the situation here is no longer something that their team and Xiao Lin's five children can handle.

If he rushes forward, I'm afraid the final result will not be too good, after all, no matter how powerful he is, he is also lacking in skills, and the other party's blood pupil can entangle him for a long time, so Xiao Lin's situation will be critical.

"I'm afraid it's an ancient beast. The Protector whispered, "If it's just an ordinary underground beast, it shouldn't be worth their effort, but what it is, we have to break in to find out." ”

"You're going to break in?" Suhe was stunned, "I'm afraid this is not a wise decision. ”

"That's why we need the power of both of you. Kenji said softly, "Or with the help of the power of the empire behind the two of you, only then can we have a chance to break in." ”

"We want to do that too, but there's a huge difficulty with this approach. The griffin smiled bitterly, "There are two other empires that have been paying attention to this, once we both send a large number of capable people into Chaos City, it will definitely attract the attention of the other two empires, and if the other party doesn't get in the way, the situation will only become more and more chaotic." ”

This is also the most helpless part of Suhe and the griffin, they want to seek the help of the empire in this matter, but the empire can't give much, because there are two other empires eyeing them, and they can't act blatantly.

If it is only a small group of capable people to enter, the other party may be able to endure it, once a large number of troops are drawn, the other two empires will definitely intervene, and if they don't do it, they will provoke a war between empires, which is a result that no one wants to see.

This is also the reason why the City Lord's Mansion is so fearless, they know very well that the two empires of Tianxiang and Dragon Heart cannot touch here, and with the two teams of Suhe and Griffin, their strength is completely enough to deal with it.

There was silence in the secret room for a while, everyone was silent, and they were a little helpless in the face of the predicament in front of them, and they didn't know how to solve the current crisis.

"I can report back to the top, but it's hard to guarantee whether reinforcements can be sent, maybe there will be, maybe not. Suhe said softly, "Of course, even if there are reinforcements, the number will definitely not be too much, you need to be mentally prepared." ”

"The Dragonheart Empire means the same thing. The griffon said with a serious face.

"Then it's a problem for both of you. Jian Ji said softly, "At this time, you can have a little more strength, the auction house has also suffered heavy losses in the previous melee, and the ability to send out to fight at this time is very limited." ”

Su He nodded silently, he knew that what Jian Ji said was the truth, the Order Auction House was inferior to the City Lord's Mansion in terms of armed forces, and more than half of the casualties in the battle just now were no longer able to confront the City Lord's Mansion, at this time, he could only pin on the two empires of Tianxiang and Longxin that they could really send some reinforcements over.

"Didi", Jian Ji's communication compass suddenly sounded softly, she looked down at the news on the compass, and her face became strange.

"What's wrong?" asked the Protector from the side.

Kenhime looked at the protector, then at Sukh and the griffin, and then whispered with a smile.

"The Wanbao Chamber of Commerce has come to the door. ”
