Chapter 40: The Battle Royale is about to begin
Suddenly hearing the news of Matthew's death, Beskode's eyes instantly turned cold, Matthew is a captain in the Knights, his talent and strength are not weak, and more importantly, Matthew is a paladin, a paladin who is deeply related to the Sleeping Temple, and his sudden death has a great impact.
Bescord threw away the quill he had inadvertently pinched and looked at Cook in front of him.
"What's the matter, I remember I didn't even let him out of Divine Heaven."
Cook gathered his thoughts and recounted the whole incident in detail.
"So, those three haven't been caught yet?"
Beth Kod's tone was calm, but Cook involuntarily felt his throat dry
"I haven't caught it yet, but the entire Divine Heaven has been blocked, and my subordinates guarantee that these three people must still be in the Divine Heaven."
After listening to Cook's assurance, Bethcord did not react, his eyes closed slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly chuckled.
"Heh, sure enough, when the building is about to collapse, there will often be a lot of ghosts and ghosts."
"Cook, I remember that in the last ten days, the security of the Divine Heaven seems to have been much more chaotic."
Cook quickly recalled some recent events, and also found that something was wrong, ten days ago, many outsiders with not weak strength began to pour in in the Divine Heaven, causing a lot of chaos in the imperial capital, and the outer suburbs were also full of chickens and dogs.
But because the black dragon is about to wake up, the Knights' focus is shifting to preparing for war, so as long as this group of people doesn't make big trouble, the Knights don't care too much.
"Yes, and most of these chaos are caused by some mercenaries or rangers who have recently arrived in the imperial capital, they have not been famous in the past, but their strength and reputation are extremely mismatched, and the methods are strange, and the behavior is very purposeful, and the three people who killed Matthew also have the same characteristics."
The group of people that Cook is talking about are basically contractors, as contractors who lick blood from the knife's edge, they are used to lawlessness in the derivative world, and now their actions in the divine heaven can be regarded as restrained, but their reckless behavior style is surprisingly consistent.
As the Knights of the Guards who control the security of the entire imperial capital, it was fine when they didn't care about it in the past, but once they had the heart to observe, it was easy to spot these large numbers of abnormal contractors, after all, their style of action was too out of place.
"Very good, since you are here, let's stay here forever."
Bescord lowered his eyes to hide the murderous intent in his eyes, but the piercing chill in his voice could not hide it.
"Cook, mark all the anomalous outsiders, and then seal off the entire Divine Heaven, in three days the elven and mage troops will arrive in the Divine Paradise, I don't want there to be any uncertain dangers in the city by then."
"It is necessary etiquette to clean the room before the guests arrive."
The word clean, Beskode said very meaningfully.
"Yes!"
"Wait."
Cook received the order and was about to leave when he was stopped again.
Bethcord's mind began to conjure up the experience of the fire, the same mercenary origin, which had not been famous in the past, had risen to prominence within ten days, and the purple flame had not been heard of before that.
"Let the firefire be responsible for the specific cleanup, let Mandel be the adjutant of the fire, and take his troops to listen to the firefire's command throughout the whole process, Cook, you are in charge of the blockade."
"Yes!"
…………
The outer city of the imperial capital, the quartermaster's office.
The armaments and materials of the Divine Heaven were indeed extraordinary, far exceeding the reserves of the Black Mountain Fortress, both in terms of quantity and quality, especially the first item in the list of supplies, seeing Xu Yue's eyes greedy.
【Holy Flying Ship (Large)】
Origin: Dragon Valley, Sacred Paradise
Quality: Blue
Type: Large Gunship
Rating: 70+++ (Note: Blue items have a rating of 31 to 70.) )
Introduction: Military armed flying ship, can achieve military reconnaissance, troop transportation, fire coverage and other functions, cruising speed of 400 km/h, can carry 150 soldiers, the whole ship is 80 meters long, the hull is equipped with a large magic energy main gun, 12 small thunder cannons, a sacred defense cover core, four inscription engines......
Inventory Quantity: 1
Price: 80,000 meritorious points, marquis or above identity credentials.
Tip: Once you have ownership of the ship, you can convert it into a summon.
Divine Heaven was willing to put even a large flying ship on the material list, this is an out-and-out militaristic heavy weapon, Xu Yue was overjoyed when he saw this thing at first sight, when he took Barna's airship before, he had already made him yearn for this thing.
It took him more than three days to get from the Black Mountain Fortress to the town of Kedra, and Barna's airship from the town of Kedra to the Sacred Paradise took only five hours, and it was only a small civilian ship, which was completely incomparable to the large armed spaceships on the list.
However, the joy ended, he quickly calmed down after seeing the exchange price below, the merit price of 80,000 points, which is an unimaginable price, plus the identity certificate of the marquis and above in the back, this thing is completely a luxury exclusively for the upper echelons of the empire, and it is basically placed here to motivate those lower-level officers.
Xu Yue now has a total of 5,129 merit points in his hand, of which more than 3,000 points are obtained by killing monsters along the way, and the remaining 2,000 points are from the token that Bescord gave him.
And through this token, he can ignore almost all the identity requirements on the list, and I have to say that Bescord is generous enough.
In fact, five thousand merits are not less, and high-quality blue weapons can be exchanged for two, but when he saw this armed spaceship, Xu Yue was no longer interested in those ordinary weapons.
He flipped through the list of materials again, there are not many types of airships on it, the cheapest is a small civilian airship, 10,000 merit points, look at the picture introduction, it should be similar to the one in Barna, but it is not something he can afford.
It seems that he has to find a way to get more benefits from Bethcord, he is very interested in this flying ship, and he must be out of action on his own, so he must think of some extraneous moves. ’
"Your Excellency, have you thought about it?"
The sound of knocking on the table sounded in his ears, it was the quartermaster behind the counter, Xu Yue looked at the appearance of the flying ship in a trance, he was no longer surprised, the first time he came to the quartermaster's office, eight out of ten people had to be stunned for a while at the pictures of the airship, but in the end, none of the ten people could exchange any of the airships in the list.
"Alright, exchange these two."
In the end, Xu Yue only exchanged two items in the list, a bottle of blue quality attribute buff potion and the Chimera crystal nucleus, which alone almost exhausted his merit points.
Re-collect Beskode's token, this thing is a necessary identity certificate, without this thing, he can't redeem most of the good things on the material list, this is also the difference between the imperial capital and the Black Mountain Fortress, where more attention is paid to status.
Since the merit points were almost exhausted, he didn't stay any longer, turned around and walked out the door, he needed to find some way to get merit points, and he wanted a lot of things on the supply list.
As soon as he walked out of the door of the quartermaster's office, a knight in full armor walked briskly towards Xu Yue.
Under Xu Yue's puzzled gaze, the tall knight stopped a few steps in front of him, and then solemnly performed a chest-beating salute, and the armor on his chest was thumped out with a buzzing sound.
"Mandel, the Knights of the Guards, on the orders of Lord Beskode, with sixty-nine subordinate knights and twenty priests, report to the Flame Chief."
Xu Yue was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted, his posture was upright, and his eyes were as cold as a knife.
"What is Lord Bethcord's order?"
"Order the Flame Commander to lead the team to exterminate all the dangerous elements within the Divine Heaven, and it is better to kill the wrong than to let it go."
