Three hours before the opening of Tianshui Floating Island, a light gate suddenly appeared next to Xingchen.

When the appointed time came, he walked directly into the light gate, and the scene in front of him suddenly changed, and he had come to the previous central hall, after the stars appeared, Prince Xian, Prince Rong, and the crown prince appeared one after another.

The four of them all looked at each other and smiled, and on the surface, they were now allies.

After a while, the phantom star appeared on the throne in the middle, and without saying anything, he directly stretched out his hand, and a point of light appeared in the air, and the point of light expanded sharply, turning into an approximate square map, and falling on the floor. Mountains, rivers, lakes and seas are all in it.

At this time, Phantom Star introduced: "This is a sketch of Tianshui Floating Island. Your mission is to defend the three fortresses and expel the enemies of the Oneiroi Continent from the Floating Island. How to defend it, you will consult with yourselves. ”

Xingchen quickly checked the sketch map of Tianshui Floating Island, which was no different from what he had obtained before, all of them were nearly square, with land and sea areas, the land distribution was like a "day", and the blank in the middle was the sea, Shanghai and Xia Hai. The two vertical positions are relatively large, and they are the main garrison of the stars, and there are three fortresses distributed in turn from north to south. Xingchen's position is in the west, the enemy is in the east, and the three horizontal points are relatively narrow, which is the passage of the army's advance, which is the northern, middle and southern passages, and is also the main area of the war.

Xingchen had already studied the map, so he pretended to look at it for a while, and directly waved his hand, marking the northernmost fortress of his camp, and said at the same time: "This northern fortress, I will send 110,000 troops to occupy it first, as my base camp." After speaking, he stretched out his hand again and marked down a small island near the north fortress in the Shanghai area, "This Water Illusion Island serves as the sea station of my 10,000 sailors. Nearby sea illusion, heavenly illusion, two small islands, and also asked His Royal Highness Prince Xian to send some sailors to station and echo each other. ”

Prince Xian directly agreed: "This is natural, I will send 60,000 sailors to guard the town." ”

Xingchen arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Prince Xian." Prince Xian sent 300,000 troops, 200,000 infantry, and 100,000 sailors, and he is definitely the protagonist of this war.

Prince Xian immediately smiled and said, "I didn't plan much, the 200,000 infantry will be divided into two groups, one wave to occupy the middle fortress, and the other to occupy the southern fortress." If you look at this map, there is a Tongtian River between the middle fortress and the south fortress, and in the middle reaches of the Tongtian River, there is a Tongtian Lake, and I plan to garrison 40,000 sailors there, so as to ensure that the two fortresses echo each other. ”

Xingchen exclaimed, "That's very good. ”

At this time, Prince Rong was reluctant, "You have occupied all three fortresses, what should I do with my sailor?"

Xingchen turned to look at Prince Rong, "Your Highness, you have said that the sailor, of course, is stationed on the three islands in the Xia Sea. ”

Prince Xian said: "Yes, Brother Rong, of course your sailor will be stationed in Xia Hai, if you are willing to hand over all the warships to me and change the sailor to the infantry army, then I am willing to hand over a fortress." ”

Prince Rong couldn't accept it at all, and looked at the crown prince again, "Big brother, they are too domineering, and none of the three fortresses will be left for me." ”

The crown prince shook his head, "Brother Rong, you have to consider the overall situation. "Joke, as the commander-in-chief of logistics, he doesn't need to think about how to arrange troops at all, he just needs to find a way to make the war last longer and earn more points.

If a fortress is really assigned to Prince Rong, will his naval army be able to hold it? The answer is no, once a fortress is lost, the situation will become precarious, and defeat will only be a matter of time. If so, what does he earn points for?

Prince Rong was dissatisfied: "Two elder brothers, I have prepared three thousand magic crystal cannons, which are enough to hold the fortress. If you don't give me a fortress, the 3,000 magic crystal cannons will be waste. What about this loss?"

Three thousand magic crystal cannons?Xingchen looked at it, it was indeed a large amount, the price of this magic crystal cannon, whether it was in the Deer Chasing Realm or in the Forest of Illusionary Dreams, was about one hundred high-grade spirit stones, and only the army could buy it. Three thousand magic crystal cannons are three hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones. It is indeed a significant loss.

However, he was very short of this thing, so he said: "The magic crystal cannon is a good thing, and it is not good to put it on hold for nothing." I'm willing to buy. ”

Prince Rong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said with a smile: "If you want to buy it, you can, two hundred high-grade spirit stones, and you don't need to talk about it." "Anyway, it's not much use, it's better to pit some money.

Xingchen arched his hand and said, "As far as I know, the price of the magic crystal cannon at this stage fluctuates between ninety-five and one hundred high-grade spirit stones, and the price of your second-hand thing has been doubled. It seems that I don't want to sell it, so I'm going to buy one with a hundred high-grade spirit stones. ”

At this time, Prince Xian heard a hundred high-grade spirit stones and a magic crystal cannon, and immediately became interested, "Brother Xingchen, my brother Rong is unwilling to sell, but I have more than 2,000 spare magic crystal cannons, but it has been shelved for more than two hundred years, I don't know if you are willing to buy it?"

Xingchen immediately surrendered his hand, "Of course I do, but the war is changing rapidly, so I will buy a thousand magic crystal cannons, and leave the remaining one thousand for His Highness to continue to spare." ”

And Prince Rong watched quietly on the side, did not speak, and said with contempt in his heart: "Acting, you continue to act, if you want to trap me, there is no way." ”

At this moment, the prince jumped out, the magic crystal cannon as war equipment, he also brought 3,000 guns, and now the ore veins under his jurisdiction, as well as the food and clothing workshop, have been fully placed, and there are still 1,500 doors left, this thing is rotten in his hands, no one wants to, so he arched his hand at Xingchen and said: "Brother Xingchen, you won't mind calling you so! To tell you the truth, this prince also has 1,500 magic crystal cannons idle in his hands, I don't know if you still need them, right?"

Xingchen nodded, "Of course you need to, you won't refuse to come." ”

The crown prince made a gesture of please, "Please follow me outside the main hall, and we will deliver the goods now." After saying that, he took the lead and walked out. The three of Xingchen also followed out of the main hall and came to the square in front of the main hall.

With a wave of his hand, the prince moved 1,500 magic crystal cannons from his storage ring to the square. At first glance, even spectacular.

Xingchen stepped forward and began to check, and found that the fifteen hundred magic crystal cannons were all up-to-date and had no traces of use, so he opened his mouth and asked, "Can I try it?"

The prince nodded, and Xingchen stepped forward to choose a magic crystal cannon at random, put ten medium-grade spirit stones into it, and then directly activated, along with the sky, ten balls of light were shot out in a row, and after feeling the ball of light, he exclaimed: "The launch is fluent, and the power is enough to threaten ordinary innate powerhouses." Then he looked at the crown prince, "His Royal Highness the prince, may I ask if you collect a high-grade spirit stone or a medium-grade spirit stone?"

The prince walked up to Xingchen before he said, "Top-grade spirit stone, after all, this is my personal thing. High-grade spirit stones can be kept for cultivation or rewarded for subordinates. Of course, it would be better if there were top-grade spirit stones, and the top-grade ones would be the most suitable for cultivation. "The prince has more than 200 spirit stone mines in this Phantom God Continent, and most of them do not have top-grade spirit stones. That thing was hard to come by, and he had only mined more than twenty of them now.

Xingchen took out a top-grade spirit stone before saying, "His Royal Highness the Prince, I really want the top-grade spirit stone." ”

The prince immediately said eagerly: "Of course it is needed." As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly changed his words: "It's not very necessary, it's just that cultivating with the best spirit stone can avoid hidden dangers." ”

At this time, Prince Xian sent a voice over, "Brother Xingchen, don't, although the exchange of top-grade spirit stones for top-grade spirit stones is one to one, but in fact, there are very few top-grade spirit stones, even in large spirit stone mines, the number will not exceed a hundred." ”

Hearing this, Xingchen was a little confused, he hadn't paid attention to the spirit stone mine on the side of the Bloodline Continent, and he didn't know what the situation was, but here, especially in the Spirit Devouring Desert, he had seen hundreds of thousands of top-grade spirit stones, and a large amount of spiritual liquid, so he had some questions, "Are there so few top-grade spirit stones, isn't that spiritual liquid even rarer?"

Prince Xian didn't understand a little, and the voice asked, "Spirit liquid? What kind of spirit liquid, have you never heard of?" At this time, Prince Xian thought that Xingchen's identity was the Chosen One, and it was clear that the spirit liquid must be something higher than the best spirit stone.

On the other side, the prince saw that Xingchen had not spoken for a long time, so he asked, "Brother Xingchen, what's wrong? Did you not bring the spirit stone here? It doesn't matter, you can owe it first." ”

Xingchen looked at the prince at this time, and then waved his hand, and the jade gourd appeared, and then said: "His Royal Highness the prince, can you see that the things in here can be used as payment?"

The prince caught it, and just opened the gourd a little, the air was already filled with a rich aura, and he didn't cover it immediately, but quickly probed the contents inside. Only then did he discover that the spiritual energy content of the liquid inside was equivalent to the amount of two hundred top-grade spirit stones, which was equivalent to 200,000 top-grade spirit stones, enough to buy two thousand magic crystal cannons. What's more, this liquid has almost no impurities, and it is a treasure of cultivation.

After the investigation was completed, his eyes lit up, and he immediately closed the lid and put the gourd into the storage ring, before looking at the stars, "This thing can definitely be used as payment,"

Xingchen also waved his hand and put away the fifteen hundred magic crystal cannons, this time he took a big advantage. In that gourd is the spiritual liquid, and the capacity is only a drop in the bucket of the spiritual liquid capacity that Xingchen has.

As for the original Spirit Devouring Desert, it was probably because of the foundation stone slab of the Spirit Gathering Array that there would be spiritual liquid. At the beginning, Xingchen didn't know the current situation, and no one knew that the final decisive battle was a legion battle, so even if others saw those spiritual liquids and top-grade spirit stones, they would treat them as waste, just like Han Feng.

And Xingchen also thought it would always be useful, and he also had a strong mining ability, so he took it easily, but he didn't expect it to play a big role now.

Prince Rong saw the success of Xingchen's deal with the crown prince, and he was curious and regretful. What is that? It was possible for the prince to accept it without hesitation.

Therefore, when the four of them returned to the main hall, Prince Rong was already standing quietly near the prince, began to transmit the sound and asked, and paid attention to the stars with twelve points of spirit, so that he didn't notice that Prince Xian reported the deployment of the army to the phantom star.

By the time he came to his senses, the deployment of the army was a foregone conclusion, which annoyed him a little.

However, as a prince, he was not overjoyed or angry, he still smiled and looked at Xingchen, and when the light gate appeared, he shouted loudly: "Brother Xingchen, I am willing to sell my magic crystal cannon, how about giving you two thousand?"

Xingchen didn't care, just nodded in agreement.

Prince Rong continued, "Then I will be waiting for you at my future sailor base. After saying that, he walked into the door of light that belonged to him.

Seeing this, Xingchen didn't say anything, and after bowing his hands to the crown prince and Prince Xian, he stepped into the gate of light.

In the blink of an eye, he had returned to the sand table map room, and not long after he returned, a huge portal appeared in a square of the base, twenty zhang high and twelve zhang wide.

Xingchen directly commanded the demon army and quickly entered it. Before entering the portal, he turned his eyes to a lake not far away, where there was also a portal, but it was slowly disappearing.

He didn't look any further, turned and stepped over the portal, stepping into another world. This is in the middle of a fortress, with 110,000 troops, and many demons have begun to leave the fortress and are stationed outside.

After arriving here, Xingchen led all the higher-ups to the point general platform not far from the portal and began to give orders.

"Little four. ”

"In. ”

"I order you to lead 30,000 demons to guard this fortress. ”

"Little Four takes the order. ”

"Xu Boshan, the three rhinoceros brothers. ”

"In" four times in a row.

"Xu Boshan was the commander of the Chinese army, leading 50,000 troops to march into the northern passage. The three rhinoceros brothers are the pioneers. ”

...

After that, "Cauchy led 15,000 troops to guard the coastline. ”

...

"The assassin led 5,000 towns to guard the sea, and the junior led 10,000 soldiers to guard the dense forest. ”

...

After the mission was released, everyone led the troops away, leaving only Xingchen, Concubine Ming, Wu Zixuan, Little Whirlwind and Leopard Head.

At this time, Xingchen came to Concubine Ming, "Concubine Ming, and Sister Zixuan, after all, we are facing the team of the Holy Gate Country, and there is trouble for the two of you to go to the South Fortress to sit down." And I'm guarding the middle fortress, so that if something goes wrong on both sides, I can rescue it. ”

Concubine Ming smiled, "Xingchen, you don't have to explain anything, Sister Zixuan and I just do it." ”

Xingchen was a little ashamed, glanced at the leopard head, and continued: "We will set off together, and when we get to the middle fortress, I will let the leopard head lead the team to protect you." "In the past three months, Xingchen has drawn twenty-four people from the 160,000 demon army to practice the Five Elements Battle Formation with the leopard head.

Five people are small five elements, and twenty-five people make up the big five elements, even if the stars want to win, they have to work hard.

Soon the group set off and flew south, passing through the dense forest along the way, and spent nearly a day to come to the middle fortress, the stars stayed, and Concubine Ming and Zixuan continued to lead the team and flew to the south fortress.

When the stars landed in front of the middle fortress, they were a little puzzled, according to the map, this day the water floating island was only more than two hundred miles, but it took them nearly a day to fly from the north fortress to the middle fortress, which was a little unreasonable. At this time, Xingchen looked up at the sun, only to realize that this sun was many times larger than what was seen on the Illusory God Continent, and it seemed farther away.

Could it be that there is a problem with the internal space of the floating island on this day? Based on his own flight experience, he understood one thing, this place is like a storage ring, it seems to be only a little, but the interior space is actually very large.

Knowing this, Xingchen no longer delves into this issue, it is better to be bigger, otherwise, the ordinary army will reach the opponent's lair in an instant, how can this war be fought?

Xingchen's stunned kung fu attracted the attention of the captain of the guard on the fortress. The captain scolded directly. "Whoever is coming, don't report your name soon. ”

Xingchen had no choice but to shout loudly: "Lu Xingchen, at the invitation of Prince Xian, I came to pay a visit." ”

The captain shouted a little angrily: "You wait, I'll go and report it." "I said I was going, but I was a little slow.

Of course, Xingchen knew what the reason was, so he took out a cloth bag and shouted, "I hope that eldest brother, hurry up and report it, I have prepared two hundred medium-grade spirit stones here as a reward." ”

The captain hurriedly changed his smile, "It's easy to say." After speaking, he directly ordered his follower to report.

After a short time, a large group of men and horses came from inside the fortress, and after the gate was opened, the leader looked at Xingchen affectionately and led Xingchen in.

The captain of the guard was stupid when he saw the appearance of the leader, it turned out to be Prince Xian, and he was in trouble.

After Xingchen entered the fortress, he came directly to the captain of the guard and said, "Captain, this is two hundred medium-grade spirit stones, please smile." ”

The captain of the guard hurriedly excused himself, "The little one doesn't dare to ask for it." ”

When Prince Xian saw this scene, he still didn't understand what was happening, and immediately scolded: "Brother Xingchen is my honored guest, and it is really hateful that you asked him for a spirit stone. ”

The captain of the guard immediately knelt on the ground, "The little one doesn't dare anymore, please atone for your sins." ”

Prince Xian was just about to give an order, but was stopped by Xingchen, "Wait, Your Highness, it's not his fault. I think he can do a big job. ”

Prince Xian looked at the captain of the guard with some contempt, "What great thing can you do if you are so greedy? ”

Xingchen hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Please also ask Your Highness to reward him to me as a follower." After all, it is not easy to cultivate to the innate level. ”

Prince Xian narrowed his eyes, "It's okay to give it to you, but, my magic crystal cannon, you have to exchange it for what you give to your eldest brother." ”

"No problem, Your Highness, take me to see the goods. ”

"Come with me. ”

After speaking at the gates, the two of them set off for the inside of the fortress, while the captain of the guard followed closely behind Xingchen, trembling.

Soon they came to the fortress's armory, and although there were more than 2,000 magic crystal cannons inside, Xingchen still collected a full thousand.

And Xingchen also delivered a jade gourd, and after Prince Xian got it, his eyes lit up first, and then he hurriedly put it into the storage ring, and his movements were no different from those of the prince. After Xingchen saw it, he complained in his heart, the two of them were really brothers, and after getting the good things, their behavior was basically the same.

Prince Xian snickered in his heart for a while, and then looked at Xingchen again, "I don't know what else you need, Brother Xingchen, what else do you want, just say it, as long as you still have this treasure." ”

Xingchen looked around again, looked at these half-new magic crystal cannons, thought for a while, and said: "This magic crystal cannon should also have a special repairman, I want to borrow ten, as for the spiritual liquid, Your Highness don't think about it, a fixed price, 10 million medium-grade spirit stones." And their salaries are paid by me, and they will remain yours after the war. ”

At this time, several people present were stunned, the 10 million medium-grade spirit stones were just used to borrow repairmen, for some reason, there were only two words in their minds, "Tuhao." "And it's a local tyrant who throws spirit stones everywhere.

And the captain of the guard, who had become Xingchen's follower, was even more stunned, and the resentment in his heart was dispelled away by ten million medium-grade spirit stones. 10 million medium-grade spirit stones, exchanged for high-grade spirit stones at a hundred to one, and there are also 100,000 high-grade spirit stones. As for Prince Xian, he was not disappointed, 10 million medium-grade spirit stones were enough for 300,000 troops to consume in January.

"Deal. ”
