Desert Iron Mercenary Group.
Outside the gate of the station.
Xiao Ding, Xiao Li and a group of chatting and laughing mercenaries drove the carriage, which not only attracted the attention of the surrounding merchants, but also invisibly increased the reputation of the Motie Mercenary Group.
Being able to come back from outside the city proves that the Motie Mercenary Group is powerful, and being able to come back from outside the city with so many goods can be explained by more than just "powerful"!
Don't think that the snake people can block everything just by establishing a blockade.
Maybe the blockade really can block everything.
However, the requirements for builders must be extremely high.
The snake people obviously cannot meet this standard.
Therefore, for the people in Black Desert City, it is not difficult to know the information that the snake people suddenly went crazy and established a blockade around Black Desert City, prohibiting all humans in the Tagore Desert from coming out.
However, for everyone in Black Desert City, there is a reason why they do not go out to rescue, and it is a reason that can be said openly at any time.
There are three reasons.
First: If you don’t recognize it, what’s the point?
Second: It’s neither a loss nor a debt, why is it worth it?
Third: Protect your body clearly, why should you violate this?
Why would someone who doesn’t know you risk their life to save you?
The blockade established by the snake people is full of dangers. Even if they set out from Black Desert City and penetrated the first line of defense, who knows how many more lines of defense the snake people have built inside the first blockade?
Even if you get in...
Kill all the blockades...
Who knows if the people waiting for rescue are still alive?
If you were alive, at what level of blockade did you reach?
If he died, wouldn't the sacrifices he made along the way be in vain?
Therefore, even if there are good-hearted people, who are not relatives or friends, they will not take the risk of failure 99% of the time and go to the Tagor Desert to save people.
The second point is even more clear.
Maybe, we really don’t know each other, and we are really not friends and relatives, but if I have nothing to ask for from you, or I don’t owe you anything, why should I take this risk?
For example: You have a batch of my goods...
In this case, it's worth taking the risk.
Another example: I once owed you a life...
In this case, there are also cultivators who are willing to enter the Tagore Desert alone. The friendship between mercenaries is relatively small, but every friendship is a life-long friendship that crawled out of the mountains of swords and seas of fire. Absolutely reliable at any time and under any conditions.
certainly.
Reliable is reliable.
There are limits to a person's abilities.
He won't die just because he is reliable.
Therefore, if there is no loss or debt, there is no need to take such a big risk and enter the Tagore Desert.
The third point is about the mentality of most people.
Protect your body clearly.
This is something everyone understands.
To put it mildly, it means protecting your body.
At worst, he just kept silent and pretended not to see it.
Therefore, without any special circumstances, a cultivator who takes Ming Baozhe as his way of personal survival has no reason at all and no obligation to go out of the city to rescue the mercenaries trapped in the Tagore Desert!
If the sky falls, someone tall will hold it up!
This is the cruel supernatural world.
No one is willing to give up their own interests, or even themselves, just to preserve the lives and interests of the majority of people.
Therefore, under these conditions, the Desert Iron Mercenary Group can still return to Black Desert City. Although most of them have obvious injuries, and some are even seriously injured, they are indeed an almost impossible to copy. Miracle!
After all, snake people are not fools.
The snake people still understand how to establish a blockade in order to block the departure of humans to the maximum extent.
Therefore, it is normal for everyone in the Motie Mercenary Group to be injured.
How could you not get injured in a breakout battle!
However, compared to the fact that the Motie Mercenary Group successfully broke through, the fact that the Motie Mercenary Group was able to protect the loot while successfully breaking through is even more shocking!
Although there are a lot fewer horses pulling the cart...
Some carriages are even pushed by people...
However, pushing these heavy carriages was undoubtedly equivalent to carrying a heavy burden during the breakout battle. It was equivalent to the Motie Mercenary Group carrying a heavy burden forward, but in the end, it was able to successfully break through with these burdens!
This made many people curious about how the Motie Mercenary Group did it.
After all, the strength of the Motie Mercenary Group is not a secret. Xiao Ding and Xiao Li are both fighting masters, which means that the Motie Mercenary Group does not have a great fighting master in charge, and a mercenary without a great fighting master is in charge. The regiment was able to successfully break through the blockade with Dou Ling stationed there, and still break through with heavy loads. This was not only ridiculous, it was simply rubbing everyone's IQ on the ground.
However, no one is rushing to ask now.
Of course, even if someone asked, all the mercenaries of the Motie Mercenary Group would not say that Lu Yuan, who can bring people back to life, not only gained their respect, but also gained their fear.
Besides, in this world where strong men do not need a reason to massacre cities and genocide, if you cannot control your mouth, you may cause disaster at any time!
As for...
Will anyone force them to ask...
Who dares!
It would be better if someone pressed me!
As long as they bite them to death and don't let go, when the respectable and formidable Fighting King finds out, whoever captures them will have their family and the forces behind them wiped out!
After all, Black Desert City is not a dragon's den or a tiger's den.
If it were placed in the imperial city of the Jia Ma Empire, it really depends on whether a strong King Fighter can destroy a family, but to destroy a family in the Black Desert City, it really only needs to be done casually!
There is a big difference between a fighting master and a great fighting master.
The gap between the Great Dou Master and Dou Ling is even greater.
The gap between Dou Ling and Dou Wang is even greater.
There are only a few fighting spirits in Black Desert City. Facing the wrath of Lu Yuan, the fighting king, there is no other choice but to tremble!
Therefore, with this sinister thought in mind, Xiao Ding's command was quickly approved by everyone in the Motie mercenary group.
but……
When they saw Lu Yuan standing at the door of the Motie Mercenary Group with green scales, Xiao Ding, Xiao Li and others were inevitably surprised!
"Brother Lu, what are you..."
Xiao Ding quickly greeted him.
Then, he glanced at Xiao Li beside him.
Then, raise your hands in a "please" gesture.
"This is the station of the Motie Mercenary Group established by Xiao Li and all the brothers. If you don't mind, let's go in and talk first!"
"Otherwise, it would be a bit suspicious that I, the host, did not provide good hospitality."
"Brother Lu, what do you think?"
Xiao Ding said politely.
However, at the end of the sentence, he also expressed his willingness to respect Lu Yuan's opinion.
In other words, if Lu Yuan refused, he would not force Lu Yuan to go in.
After saying that, Xiao Ding noticed Qing Lin.
Looking at the surprised Qing Lin, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
But considering that Lu Yuan was still here, Xiao Ding didn't pay much attention to Qing Lin. After all, Qing Lin's identity was really difficult for anyone to take a high look at. Currently, the only people who could talk to Lu Yuan were him and Xiao Li. After talking to Lu Yuan, he turned around and asked why Qing Lin was here. It would easily give Lu Yuan the illusion that he was "unable to distinguish between high and low status", which would further affect his impression in Lu Yuan's mind.
There is no doubt that it is not worth it.
His compassion and care for Qing Lin are based on his ability. He cannot give up on himself to take care of Qing Lin. Moreover, if he gives up on himself, he may not be qualified to take care of Qing Lin.
By then, Qinglin won’t have to do laundry!
Because she can't even find a job doing laundry!
No one wants to take her in!
She has only two choices: starve to death, or go astray!
Therefore, it is very important for Xiao Ding to clearly distinguish a person's status. Even if what Lu Yuan said is true, Xiao Yan's friends are still not his Xiao Ding's friends. Lu Yuan saved him this time for the sake of Xiao Yan's face, and love, are the most expensive things in the world!
Xiao Ding originally thought that Lu Yuan would make good use of the favor he owed.
But I didn't expect...
"Now, do you believe it?"
Lu Yuan smiled and raised his hand.
He rubbed Qing Lin’s little head.
Looking at Qing Lin's stunned look, he added: "I told you before, I know your commander Xiao Ding, so you don't have to be wary of me, and even if you are wary Heart, you can’t resist my request, can you?”
Xiao Ding was stunned when he heard this.
He looked at Lu Yuan, then at Qing Lin, and reminded him with a strange expression: "Brother Lu, this girl Qing Lin is a hybrid of human and snake-man. Although she has grown a bit, she is not yet an adult. Woolen cloth!"
Qing Lin embarrassedly covered his wrist.
Hearing the second half of Xiao Ding's words, he immediately understood what Xiao Ding was thinking just now, and couldn't help but let out a sob, which seemed to express his shyness.
Lu Yuan also heard that Xiao Ding was thinking wrongly.
The corners of his eyes twitched slightly.
Immediately, he chuckled and cursed: "It's not like you don't know the life span of Dou Wang and all realms above Dou Wang. I don't have that intention. Besides, I just want Qing Lin to become my maid. I am willing to take out the money you owe me before." It’s just an exchange of favors, it has nothing to do with what you think.”
After saying that, Lu Yuan paused.
He seemed to be thinking.
He also seemed to be hesitating.
After a few seconds, he slowly spoke: "However, we have to explain some things clearly in advance. Considering that you are Xiao Yan's brother, I won't tell you anything false. Qinglin has the three powers of the Green Snake." Huatong, although she has not yet awakened, her fluctuations are unmistakable, so I hope to take her by my side to train her and become my support."
As he said that, he raised his hand and touched Qing Lin's green hair: "I don't want to hide it from you. You, I must take you away, but I don't want you to be taken away by me in a daze, and finally think that I am really Use you, because I can tell you clearly now that I chose you to be my maid because I fell in love with your green snake and three-flowered eyes."
Xiao Ding choked for a moment.
Qing Lin also choked for a while.
no……
You said so...
What else can we say?
Even if we knew you had to have her...
He doesn't even bother to lie to us...
But is it really polite to say that?
The air seemed to suddenly become quiet.
After a moment, Xiao Ding smiled awkwardly.
After thinking for a while, he looked at the dumbfounded Qing Lin: "Since Brother Lu has said so, it's not easy for me to stop him. It was Brother Lu who brought us back this time, and Brother Lu is a friend of my third brother Xiao Yan. , Although I don’t know what you think, Qinglin, but I am indeed letting him go.”
The implication is simple.
I let him go, this matter has nothing to do with me.
Whether you want to follow him or not is up to you.
Whether you resist him or not is also your business.
There is no need to use the Motie Mercenary Group as an excuse to resist becoming Lu Yuan's maid. Moreover, Lu Yuan is not an evil guest. On the contrary, Lu Yuan is the benefactor who saved the Motie Mercenary Group.
For various reasons.
Are you Qinglin embarrassed to refuse?
As for what the green snake and three-flowered pupils are...
Does it matter?
unimportant!
Potential is potential, strength is strength!
Even if you, Qing Lin, have the inheritance of Dou Huang, you still do not have the ability to keep this inheritance. Therefore, this inheritance can be yours if it is said to be yours, or it can be mine if it is not!
What's more, in a negotiation, there is usually a villain who plays the role of the villain, and it is precisely because of this that the negotiation can continue.
Xiao Ding is playing the villain at this moment.
To put it simply, it’s just a bad look.
Lu Yuan pretended to be red-faced.
In contrast, it can fool Qing Lin better.
Don't blame Xiao Ding for deceiving Qing Lin because he doesn't talk about martial arts. It's just because this matter is beneficial to Qing Lin from any angle.
If it weren't for identity restrictions...
If talent is not limited...
If it weren't for the limited responsibilities he currently carries...
He also wants to follow Lu Yuan!
When one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven!
Just like the knights in the world always talk about the Emperor's Eagle Dog and always curse them, who wouldn't envy the well-organized Emperor's Eagle Dog?
After all, the Emperor's Eagle Dog is also very safe!
A vendetta?
Sorry, it's none of my business.
Even if I saw it, you wouldn't dare to silence me.
Because I represent the face of the court.
If you kill me, you will annihilate yourself from the world.
Once the emperor gives an order, countless righteous masters will come out in admiration, just like a group of sharks that have smelled blood, causing chaos in the entire world!
Moreover, after becoming the emperor's eagle dog, you may have to abide by the rules in the city and not bully the people, but in the world of rivers and lakes, they are just swaying with their arms sideways. The hands of people who are in the rivers and lakes are not very clean anyway.
If you kill all one hundred people in the world, some of them will definitely be innocent.
If you kill a hundred people from all walks of life, some of them will definitely be missed.
So just swing with your arms sideways and that's it!
Anyway, the backers behind us emperors and hawks are strong enough!
This is the confidence.
And this is just an ordinary extraordinary world.
The higher the level of extraordinary power, the fewer strong people fight alone. Maybe some strong people don't care about this, but most strong people will still have some spontaneous followers to follow!
Therefore, Xiao Ding did not ask so many questions.
Even if he couldn't follow Lu Yuan and achieve enlightenment, he couldn't let Lu Yuan go to all the trouble of explaining it to him. This was completely unnecessary!
But Qing Lin thinks less than Xiao Ding.
Naturally, the behavior is more innocent.
He raised his head and looked at Lu Yuan curiously: "Can I know what the three-flowered pupils of the green snake are?"
"The green snake and the three-flowered pupils..."
Lu Yuan rubbed his chin.
After a pause, he explained:
"To put it bluntly, this is a magical power that has special suppression power over snake-like monsters, and the way this magical power is reflected is the eyes!"
"The Blue Snake and Three Flower Eyes have pretty good abilities."
"People with the Green Snake Three-flowered Pupils can easily control snake-like monsters of the same realm as themselves, including those that have already transformed. They are also within the control range of the Green Snake Three-flowered Pupils."
"The Blue Snake Three-flowered Pupil can even control snake monsters across a large realm. For example, if you are a fighting king, it may be a bit difficult to control Queen Medusa of the snake-people clan, but if you want to restrain Queen Medusa, it is right For you, it’s easy.”
"The Three-flowered Eyes of the Green Snake will only appear in hybrids of humans and snake-men. The point is, not every hybrid of humans and snake-men can awaken the Three-flowered Eyes of the Green Snake. I have to admit that I am very lucky. , so I don’t want you to waste your talents here.”
"In addition, the Green Snake Three-flowered Eyes also has an advantage that many snake monsters hate: the Green Snake Three-flowered Pupils will invisibly absorb the cultivation level and even the soul of the snake-type soul beast controlled by it. Then adding the same level of cultivation and mental power to a cultivator with green snakes and three-flowered pupils is equivalent to you devouring the power of these snake-like monsters, and the speed at which your strength increases is unmatched by ordinary people."
Xiao Ding took a breath of air when he heard this.
However, it seemed that he suddenly remembered something again.
He hurriedly spoke and asked: "Brother Lu, is this also the case when my third brother Xiao Yan's fighting spirit disappears? Is he being controlled by someone?"
"There is no green snake with three flower pupils that can control people."
Lu Yuan spread his hands.
Immediately, he calmly comforted: "However, you don't need to worry about this issue. If there are no accidents in the process, it won't be long before you can see a person who has fully recovered his cultivation and even reached a higher level." Xiao Yan, there are too many things involved, so I won’t tell you one by one on his behalf.”
Xiao Ding breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good..."
What he fears most is that Xiao Yan will be controlled by others.
Just like the green snake with three flower pupils mentioned by Lu Yuan.
Just by listening to it, Xiao Ding could sense the complicated feelings of the snake monster towards the green snake with three colored pupils. However, if he were a snake monster, he would probably stay away from such outrageous things.
joke!
The fighting spirit that I have cultivated so hard!
The realm I have cultivated through hard work!
With one look from you, everything is gone!
Even I have to be controlled by you!
It can only be said that it is impossible for the Snake Clan to completely exterminate the cultivators of the Green Snake and Three Flower Pupils. If it can be done, Xiao Ding estimates that the Snake Clan will not hesitate. Even if it costs more than half of the casualties, it will be completely eliminated. The appearance of the green snake with three colored pupils!
At the same time, Xiao Ding seemed to suddenly understand why Lu Yuan insisted on Qinglin being his maid, and even bluntly stated that it was useless even if Qinglin resisted...
What a talent!
To put it bluntly, it’s still talent!
Qinglin has almost maxed out her special attack talent against snakes!
Even if Qinglin's personal combat power is not outstanding, and he does not have an advantage when facing opponents of the same level, as long as he has the three-flowered eyes of the green snake, Qinglin's team fighting ability and all other abilities are almost fully utilized!
If nothing else...
Just imagine: Dou Wang level Qing Lin, with Queen Medusa who was the Nine Star Dou King many years ago, plus the eight Dou King leaders of the snake people clan, the tactics he can use are definitely different from Qing Lin alone, and a The fighting power that the nine-star fighting kings and the eight fighting kings can exert together are almost without shortcomings!
Blue scales may not be good at defense.
But there are always snake people who are good at defense!
Green scales may not be good at attacking.
But there are always snake men who are good at attacking!
Although it is a bit immoral to control others, it is no different from controlling a group of puppets, but as long as you are strong enough, no one dares to say that you are immoral!
pity……
His small temple cannot keep this big Buddha...
Even if the Buddha comes, he can't see it...
Qing Lin didn't have too many ideas.
Her mind is still very simple.
He looked at Lu Yuan, then at Xiao Ding, and finally looked back at the gate of the Motie Mercenary Regiment. Reluctantly, he bowed to Xiao Ding seriously, and then said seriously :
"Captain, I'm leaving then."
"I will remember you and everyone."
"If I have a chance, I will come back to see you."
"Thank you for hosting me these past few years."
Xiao Ding sighed in despair, but had no regrets. He just calmly raised his hand and pointed at the gate of the Motie Mercenary Regiment:
"Go!"
"Since you have this talent, you shouldn't live in this small place your whole life!"
"However, one day when I am here, when your brother Xiao Li and all the mercenaries of Motie Mercenary Group are here today, the door of Motie Mercenary Group will always be open to you, no matter what your status is at that time. .”
"As for thanking me for taking you in..."
"That's not necessary."
"Doing good deeds without asking for reward."
"Instead of thanking me, I hope you can stay with Brother Lu well, don't betray Brother Lu, and if you are able, try to help some people in the same difficulty, just like I once helped you."
Qinglin nodded seriously.
Then, he looked at Lu Yuan: "Master!"
"Um."
Lu Yuan nodded: "Just call the Lord."
The owner still sounds a little weird.
Your Majesty, that sounds normal.
"My lord."
Qinglin shouted again seriously.
His cute look makes you want to bully him even more.
Gently tugging Qing Lin's little face, Lu Yuan nodded to Xiao Ding, then hugged Qing Lin, took one step forward, and disappeared from the spot.
"It's not Dou Huang..."
Xiao Ding looked around.
But I didn't see any afterimage.
I suddenly understood something in my heart.
Shaking his head, he sighed silently.
And in the distance...
Outside Wutan City...
In the sky above the Jia Ma Empire...
Four-winged unicorns carrying powerful auras flew through the sky one after another. It was impossible to count how many Douwang-level auras there were, and how many Douhuang-level auras there were. Knowing that this was a force that could easily destroy the entire Jia Ma Empire, even Jia Xing Tian could only tremble in front of this group of unknown visitors.
Fortunately, the target of this group of unknown visitors is not the Gama Empire.
But...
"Utan City?"
Looking at the backs of this group of unknown visitors.
Jia Xingtian looked at the direction in which the unknown visitors left, and couldn't help but murmur to himself.
