Chapter 214: Diling City
"This. Pen % fun % pavilion www.biquge.info . . . . Senior Brother He, there's no need for this! Looking at He Liu, who glanced at the serious, Li Bao, who opened his big mouth, was halfway through his speech, but finally did not continue. It is a legitimate right for a player to challenge the captain, and once the challenge is successful, the benefits are quite high. After all, after becoming a captain, you will receive great preferential treatment in terms of merits, and it will also be of great help to your future development in the temple. In the absence of a deep friendship, Li Bao did not have much reason to dissuade He Liu from giving up this interest.
"I know that Senior Brother Morn is very strong. However, I still have to fight for the position of captain, and I am not in the habit of being commanded by others. He Liu said very calmly.
"Do you want to be a skirmisher?" Li Bao was slightly stunned, and then asked in surprise. The so-called stragglers refer to front-line personnel who have lost their ranks for various reasons and need to fight alone. Although there are not many such people in Diling Mountain, they have always existed.
"Even if it's a skirmisher, it's better than being restrained. And I don't necessarily have to lose. He Liu said very calmly. Although the stragglers are alone and have no support, and the danger of falling on the battlefield is extremely great, the stragglers also have their own advantages, that is, autonomy. Every skirmisher, like every team, just accepts the mission, and the specific way to complete the task is determined by himself, and there will be no such thing as becoming cannon fodder because he is bound by others. Therefore, many people who feel that they have enough strength, but do not get the position of captain for various reasons, and do not want to be restrained, will choose to self-exile and become a skirmisher. Most of these people are not weak, so they can survive on the battlefield where the battle is fierce.
"Hey. In that case, I won't say anything more. Li Bao sighed and shook his head slightly. Monks by nature don't like to be too constrained, and the stronger they are, the heavier their minds. To be able to have a magic weapon during the foundation building period, either you have a strong background or have a good chance, but you must be the best among the foundation building monks, and your independent mind is heavier. In fact, if it weren't for some friendship with Moen and understanding Moen's strength and character, Li Bao himself would have competed for the position of captain. If he fails, Li Bao will also choose to become a skirmisher and try to be free.
"Do you want to start fighting now?" Seeing Li Bao's failed mediation, Mo En asked lightly. The arrogance of this elite monk from the Welling Hall had already been learned by Morn on the road. Previously, Li Bao had the intention of befriending He Liu and wanted to form a three-person group with strong combat effectiveness, but He Liu directly refused. Now He Liu proposed to compete for the captaincy, which was also expected by Morn.
"Not now, of course. Since it was a contest for the captaincy, I naturally chose to take on the formal challenge. After waiting for the formation of the team, we go to the gladiatorial arena and compete fairly. He Liu responded lightly. Although he is full of arrogance, He Liu is not a vexatious person, and he does not like conspiracy and calculation. This time to challenge Moen, in addition to fighting for the captaincy and his own freedom, He Liu also has the intention of tempering his strength with the help of Moen. In this case, it is natural to choose an open and honest fight, rather than a private fight.
"That's good. When the senior brother is ready, let me know. Morn nodded and said calmly. Although He Liu is arrogant, his strength is not weak. In the previous battle, Mo En and Li Bao teamed up to severely damage a snow wolf demon soul and drag Bai Ye. But He Liu also relied on his own strength to suppress the other snow wolf demon soul and protect the other injured foundation building monks. Although in terms of results, Mo En and Li Bao are better, but the strength shown by everyone is not much different. Morn can also get a lot of benefits from fighting He Liu, so he doesn't resist this kind of challenge.
And from the bottom of his heart, Morn is slightly resistant to the position of captain. In his previous life in the reincarnation space, Morn had seen too many teams fall apart for various reasons, so he had quite high standards in terms of companion selection. And now in the team of ten people, except for Li Bao, who meets Morn's requirements, the others do not meet Morn's criteria for choosing companions. Working with these people and commanding them is not as comfortable as Morn acting alone. As for the benefits that the position of captain can bring, it is not very attractive to Morn. After all, for Mo En, improving his strength and constantly breaking through the realm is the greatest pursuit, and when the cultivation is enough, these benefits will naturally be available, and there is no need to bother so much.
But even if he was a little reluctant, Morn didn't have the heart to give up the captain to Xian. On the one hand, the absence of the position of captain meant that Morn himself needed to obey the commands of the other foundation building monks, and his freedom was greatly restricted, which was unacceptable to Morn. On the other hand, the appointment of this position must have the great efforts of Liu Mingzhen and the weight of Bai Hongzhen. If you give up easily, these two real people will not be easy to explain. It's not that I'm worried that the two real people will blame, but I don't want to live up to this kindness.
"Where are you going next?, does Senior Brother Li have any good suggestions?" Seeing He Liu return to the room, Mo En turned his head and asked Li Bao. According to Bai Hongzhen's orders, Mo En and the others could move freely for these two days. Naturally, monks with injuries need to heal in the room, but monks like Morn who have recovered don't want to be stuffed in their rooms anymore.
"We just arrived here, and we don't have the team, the tokens, or anything yet, and there aren't many places to go. If the junior brother wants to go around, you can consider going to Diling City, where the market is still good. Li Bao replied. Although he has never been to Diling Mountain, because of his family background, Li Bao knows a lot about the situation here, and it is no problem for Mo En to be a guide.
"Diling City, is that the place where cultivators and warriors gather?" Morn asked. Although the front line of Diling Mountain is dominated by the Thousand Bull Temple, it is not only the monks and the warrior troops directly under the Thousand Bull Temple who fight against the Ice Demon here, but also the small forces attached to the temple and scattered cultivators from all over the world. Although it is dangerous to fight with the Ice Devil, there will be quite a lot of benefits after killing the Ice Demon master, and for the scattered cultivation and small forces that lack resources, this is a risky place with large returns and low resource acquisition, so a large number of mobile people have gathered. And these people who are not qualified to enter the Diling Mountain camp in order to form a group to protect themselves and communicate with each other, they established Diling City, a place that is attached to the Diling Mountain camp, but is not completely under the jurisdiction of the temple.
"Not bad. Although it is a place where casual cultivators and martial artists gather, there are a lot of good things from the Ice Demon Man, ice ores, elixirs, beast bones, beast souls, and so on. Temple disciples also often go there to exchange things. Li Bao nodded and replied.
"Alright, let's go to Diling City and have a look. Hearing the beast spirit, Morn stroked his left arm and said with a smile. (To be continued.) (To be continued.) )
