Pengyu Castle

At dawn, the eastern sky and the dense forest appeared fish belly white, red sunset, a few places with thin clouds, with dawn.

The gusts of wind, with a bone-soaked coolness, made people shiver.

At the same time, a snow-white city appeared in everyone's field of vision, the fields were continuous, the buildings in the city were divided into districts, orderly, most of them were wooden buildings, only the city walls and the bald pyramid in the center were made of stone.

Twenty miles away, the branches and foliage of the trees blocked the view, and several people lowered their figures, hovering at the height of the forest canopy.

The breath of the Mude spirit vein can strengthen the concealment technique, and the snow has not melted, the color of the woods is snow-white, and it is easy to find visually, so it is better to cover it with trees.

Flying far around the city, circling inward and approaching.

Ye Qing looked at it, feeling the ups and downs of the power below.

The pale black air currents were running, and there was a blood-red color in the pyramid, and there was a faint glow in this dawn and morning light, and the Xuanyuan sword roared softly in the sword box, with longing.

Qianqian smiled slightly and whispered, "Clan spirit." ”

Li Niang estimated that the distance was about ten miles, and she had not yet gone out of the dense forest, so she stopped and retreated: "We can't get any closer, it's easy to be detected, and the three-mile range around the bald pyramid is the god domain of the desolate gods, and it has the strength of a true immortal here." ”

"How do you kill it?"

Ye Qing narrowed his eyes and stared at this desolate temple, since he heard that oracle, he didn't show anger, but the killing intent had already been deeply rooted in his heart.

"I'm afraid it's not easy now, in the past, we either killed in a frontal field during the winter counterattack, or after the counterattack was won, the army surrounded the lonely city and burned the city to exterminate the people...... When the samurai and slaves of the alien race fled or became extinct, Aragami lost the source of power, and then there was a group of magicians bombarded by Taoism, and real people surrounded and annihilated, which was the most secure and unharmed. ”

Li Niang said about the past experience of punishing gods in the master's sect, and reminded: "This kind of desolate god with multiple city-states has a sufficient source of divine power, and it can only be killed by breaking through all cities, and it is difficult to entangle...... The division can be regarded as killing it for half a life at most in a frontal field battle, and the loss of divine power can be replenished in just another year, and the loss of soldiers in the city-state can also make up for most of it, which means that we have limited time, but we can't rush it......"

Ye Qing nodded, followed the kindness, listened to her opinion, and did not approach the enemy god domain.

pyramid

The main hall of the temple on the pyramid is several zhang high, 100 meters wide, and the innermost part is a high platform that climbs step by step, and on the high platform, there is a throne.

The throne is made of stone, simple and majestic, and Aragami is sitting on it and sleeping.

Suddenly, Aragami woke up and looked around vigilantly, his gaze swept over as if there was no trace, only a group of priestesses in robes below, kneeling and praying, exercising their divine powers, and waiting to serve the powerful Aragami at any time.

"Strange ......"

It grunted and fell back asleep......

For the gods, slumber reduces exertion, while slumber, which has a source of power, accelerates recovery.

And the body of the wild beast, and let it have enough energy or even excess, the beast always has to get up and move when it is full, Aragami is often like this, there is no other entertainment here, often grabbing a priestess and pressing it under him, is the most recreational thing.

It reacted just now, with a beast-like intuition...... "Feeling a chill, Ye Qing let go of the hilt of his sword and turned his head to look at his wife: "What do you think, Qianqian?"

"Ten miles is very close, but it hasn't really noticed my approach, and it can't even see through the spells I set......" Qianqian's eyebrows stretched out, and she muttered: "In this way, this oracle's prediction is not its own ability. ”

Ye Qing's tone was calm, chewing and saying, "Do you have any new ideas?"

"It's just a conjecture, or at the same time that I communicated with the source force of this Dongzhou Qingmai, the source force itself reacted...... There is no clear nominative case for the convergence of the leylines, but this desolate god may be guided ......" Qianqian guessed and paused: "Some kind of Cheng dù said that the desolate god is the son of this Eastern Desolation. ”

Ye Yue's heart sank, but he quickly calmed down, and Zhengrong said: "At first glance, I was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, if there is no accident, it should be like this." ”

"We are invaders in this Eastern Wilderness Continent. ”

"Although it is impossible for the Heavenly Dao to exist, it has long been worn out, and the instinct still exists, or it is possible. ”

Having said so, Ye Qing would not be careless about anything related to her, he thought about it for a moment, revealing a trace of ruthlessness: "Cao Cao is perfecting the official government in the rear, and it has achieved some results...... Before this truth is confirmed, Qianqian, don't break through the immortal position to prevent other accidents. ”

"Hmmm......"

Qianqian had no objection, stopped in a treetop, closed her eyes and began to absorb the breath of the underground, every time she reached the spiritual vein node where the enemy's lair was located, she could obtain a trace of green vein source power, and the seeds in her body would grow and be full.

The best completely occupy the node, establish a magic circle, and you can absorb all of them at once, while the enemy controls zhì and draws very slowly, and it takes several days to complete the deep process.

Ye Qing was not in a hurry, so he accompanied his wife to protect her safety when absorbing the source power.

Although Li Niang and Bing Mei didn't know their intentions for staying here, they respected Ye Qing and Qianqian's strength, so they didn't ask at all, they only guarded and protected.

In the next three days, when he was idle, Ye Qing was outside the city to observe the customs of this alien city-state, and Chuan Lin's notes recorded and analyzed the shining points in its civilization one by one.

Pengyu Castle・Day 3

In just a few days, Qianqian's speed of absorbing the source power of the green vein has been accelerated as much as possible, but it has not been completed until today, and she is finishing the end, Ye Qing is guarding her while observing various activities in the city.

The city gate has a moat, a bridge runs through it, and the city gate has two gate towers, Ye Qing looked like a caravan happened to enter it, was intercepted and asked, and charged a fee.

There are residential areas, commercial areas, and temple areas in the city, looking at Ye Qingwei, the civilization of this city is already quite good, and it is really a problem for the henchmen.

"Alas, is there any news from the east?" entered the city lord's mansion first, and soon after coming out, someone asked.

"It's still the same, the Illusory Forest moves through the Middle Realm, devouring a few more caravans...... It's hard to make money. The caravan owner sighed, did not forget to count the money in his hand, and did not raise his eyelids: "I heard that in the easternmost part, there is a new land on the sea, which is not big at present, but it seems that a larger area will slowly appear in the future......"

The real bulk trade has actually been exchanged with the city lord's mansion, and it is to make some extra money on the streets, and many wealthy freemen and even nobles have gathered around the caravan to find suitable items to exchange, and many of this trade is not limited to money.

In fact, there is no other common money on this land except gold, even Tongbei, some city-states are not recognized, this is also an intercity long-distance caravan trafficking goods, always carrying a large amount of gold.

Because of the rarity of trading opportunities, most of the city-states were kind to the caravans and would not plunder - this could be done, but the fate of a few city-states was that the caravans did not go there as a warning, and finally the hostile city-states were destroyed due to the lack of strategic materials.

In order to guard against these dangers, the caravan will hire a lot of warriors to take to the next city every time they arrive, and at the same time leave the warriors of the previous city behind, this kind of mercenary exchange sometimes brings unexpected joy to people......

"The warriors of our bison division are the best cavalry...... Do you know the cavalry?" a big man riding a bison looked at the crowd condescendingly, and the three hundred ox cavalry behind him were all triumphant.

A few nobles came out of the city lord's mansion, saw the situation, and walked over with interest, and several people surrounded Zhong Yuanyan, looking at these ox cavalry, and their eyes lit up: "I hired you...... What's your name?

"Just be full...... Oh, my name is tripe, and I want to divide the spoils of war in half. ”

It's really tripe...... Just know how to eat.

The nobles looked at each other, thinking that where did this poor ghost come from, and he must have let the passing caravan get home, but they didn't poke it, and pretended to come forward to bargain.

Yuan Yan frowned and said, "How can you treat the warrior badly? Come, bring the gold up, and send a beauty to this warrior!"

The tripe touched his head, and his face was very happy, while the faces of several nobles collapsed......

Motohiko didn't notice it, but he asked the survivors of the battle in detail, and they all described the troops charging on horseback, and the flat ground could not stop it at all......

Or that horses can't get into the woods, but depending on the enemy's might, won't one day they attack the city, and how will they defend it?

"This is our homeland, land, food, population, weapons are our wealth, some gold, what is it?" he said very philosophically, smiling and baring his teeth: "With warriors, gold and women can be grabbed anywhere." ”

When he said this, the people around him nodded, and the nobles, freemen, merchants, and mercenaries all showed expressions of deep disapproval, and the tripe was even more pleased: "If you are a hero, we will follow you!"

A consciousness wandered nearby, stopping to pay attention to the scene, when the temple gate of the bald pyramid opened, and a group of priestesses came out, and the consciousness instantly shrank back outside the city......

The Lord's Wife...... Or that the high priest was dressed in a snow-white priestly robe, surrounded by her sisters, setting off her noble beauty, and then stopped at the foot of the steps, turned her head to look behind her in confusion, and there were no waves in the air...... Probably some alien slave is watching her again!

She frowned for a while, although she was a woman of the Aragami, she was also the woman of the city lord, and even the lover of some big nobles...... Some of the other sisters were aristocratic wives and daughters, and it was glorious to serve the gods, a centuries-old tradition that they were used to, but that didn't mean that alien slaves could watch over their bodies...... The Divine Woman is noble and holy, and cannot be defiled.

"Let's go back and clean up the slaves...... Kill those who are not honest. She said this to a nobleman, and walked back to the city lord's mansion.

"As you wish, noble lady. The nobleman should get down, staring at the curve of her back with a demeanor.

Suddenly there was a commotion, and several savages in ragged clothes, shackled, were pressed in from the city gate, and passed through this street to the slave market, attracting the attention of the city lord's wife, who was a little careless, and casually asked, "Is it a fugitive slave?"

"Yes, they fled in a nearby village, saying that a foreign high priest had destroyed the village and killed the venerable priestess......"

The city lord's wife's nonchalant face changed, her brows furrowed, and her eyes stared: "The village...... Destroyed?"

"Indeed, my subordinates are about to report to the city lord. The person in charge of the press bowed respectfully, not daring to look at this rumored noble lady, there is a big gap between the nobles and the samurai, such a noble woman is not something that a small samurai like him can touch.

"Go and tell me. ”

The lady of the city lord waved her hand, thought for a while, turned around and returned to the Aragami Temple: "After all, sisters, even if they are not good, they are also the concubines of the gods...... They are victimized, and the murderers are of a different race, and these murderers will be killed...... Or a worse punishment!"

"Yes, High Priest. The priestesses in the back should pay their respects and yearn for this double first lady of divine and royal power.

Ten miles outside the city, Ye Qing put away his senses, flipped through the information of the White Jade Book City in Chuanlin's notes, and compared it, many of them could not be found, and he was thoughtful for a while.

Ye Qing thought about it, rubbed his cheeks, and asked Li Niang with a side face: "Is there a desolate god in more than three cities?"

"True Monarch...... Worried about the emergence of a true god like a dragon?"

Li Niang was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood the meaning of this inquiry, and said: "I haven't seen this, at least the annexation time on the Western Front is still short, and the alien races above the two city-states are a minority, and more than three have not been observed so far, and this kind of leader is the leader in the winter defense counterattack...... The war on the Eastern Front is not as fierce as on the Western Front, and the possibility of a super annex will be smaller, so Zhenjun doesn't have to worry. ”

"That's ......" Ye Qing bowed his head, staring at the deep darkness in the east, and was silent for a while.

Because the sources of meteorites are different, there are basically no identical meteorites, and the land of the Eight Desolations is always so unpredictable, and some historical experience can be referred to, most of which are beyond the record.

Strange civilizations, strange resources, strange treasures, strange creatures, and strange dangers.

This is the Eight Desolations, no piece of the Eight Desolations has ever been exactly the same, they are dangerous and full of charm, like a virgin land under thorns and roses.

The principle of green veins, any small probability event cannot be judged by the possibility of the degree of influence, this is the case with the hidden dragon, and this is the case with the Eight Desolation regions.

"It's better to finish pushing it flat within five years, otherwise put such a large piece out of control, and in more than ten years, it may be a really successful Aragami ......" he thought to himself, not saying it.

In the past few days, there have been no accidents with Liniang and Bingmei on the side, the priestesses of all villages have been killed in seconds, the beacon tower has not been lit, and the savage slaves have escaped and dare not return, but it is the third day, Ye Qing estimated that the enemy was going to discover the situation of the villages in the territory, so he didn't stay longer, and took the three of them on the way home.

Flying out less than fifty miles, an angry beast roar came from Pengyu City behind, and then, the blood-red divine light rose, like a tide, surging to the east.
