In the cave, Xu Feng and others set up a fire and ate monster meat. Shitou also brought a lot of fruit wine and spirits from the city. Everyone ate meat and drank wine to vent their tiredness over the past few days.
"Take half a day to rest. Bring your weapons, armor, mounts and equipment. We will set off for the border tomorrow afternoon. This time it will take more than a month."
Heiyi said to everyone.
In the academy, Xu Feng exchanged all the points in his hand for dark-attributed beast crystals for Xiaogu and some elixirs to replenish vitality and blood, polished the weapons and armor, and set out.
Juncheng, the border area between Black Flame Mansion and Yinran Mansion, is famous as the border between the two mansions.
A border city is as big as the Black Flame Mansion. It is a sinful city, where fugitives and exiles from both mansions gather here. The children and old women on the street may be ruthless characters who make children cry in a certain city.
The Black Flame Mansion and the Yinyan Mansion did not conduct a crusade here, but controlled the city in the dark. The Black Flame Mansion controlled the arena and the black market, while the Yinran Mansion controlled the mission lobby, city gates, and commercial streets. .
The evil in the two provinces needs a place to be released. Juncheng's location in the middle of the border between the two provinces also allows both sides to have a tacit understanding of letting Juncheng go.
The unique cultural environment has also made the gray industry in Juncheng very prosperous. Many of the stolen goods and treasures from the two mansions flowed into this sinful city. Of course, this wealth eventually flowed back to the Black Flame Mansion and the Yinran Mansion.
Hei Yi led Xu Feng and five others on the road outside Juncheng. Beggars gathered in twos and threes, with ragged clothes, sallow faces, and women holding babies crying. Hei Yi looked at them indifferently and headed straight towards the gate of Juncheng. Go.
Ye Xiaochi looked at Yu Xin and couldn't bear to take out some silver coins from his arms and gave them to the woman. The woman looked at Ye Xiaochi's silver coins greedily in his arms, threw the baby to the ground, and stabbed her arm with a short blade. out.
The beggar next to him also had a ferocious look on his face. He threw up dust to cover everyone's sight and stabbed them with his dagger. Xu Feng's long knife flashed and killed the beggars gathered around him. Ye Xiaochi was caught off guard and stabbed.
The huge stone ax struck down, preventing the woman from further harm. Seeing that the situation was not good, the woman summoned her mount and flew away.
Heiyi drew a strong bow and shot the woman dead.
"Don't take yourself too seriously when you get to Juncheng. Being soft-hearted will not end well here."
Heiyi said to Ye Xiaochi.
In a large courtyard in Juncheng, twenty Heiyunqi gathered here, "Hei Er, I'll leave it to you."
Juncheng is one of the permanent places where Heiyunqi is stationed. Heiyunqi often accepts tasks here to hunt down fugitives and collect generous rewards.
Juncheng is the largest population trading market in the two provinces, and the gladiatorial arena is the most popular place here. Bloody killings and gambling on the outcome are all stimulating the excitement of these desperadoes in Juncheng.
The Black Flame Mansion also has shares in the gladiatorial arena in Juncheng. Heiyunqi is a member of the team who is stationed here to supervise the arena. He spends his free time chasing fugitives and collecting intelligence.
"The gladiatorial arena is full of desperadoes, with high strength, and even some high-quality knights. They are not those pigs you slaughter. The best way to hone your fighting skills is between life and death. Each of you here can win ten consecutive victories in the gladiatorial arena. Training completed.”
After Hei Er finished speaking, he took Xu Feng and others to the arena, and arranged everyone in different batches to avoid collisions.
Xu Feng and others surrounded the arena. The crowd on the stone steps looked like crazy demons, their eyes filled with blood.
In the arena, a middle-level knight summoned a second-level low-level giant bull mount to fight with a second-level high-level black-spotted giant tiger.
The giant tiger showed a cruel face and was hungry. Before being released, the giant tiger was deliberately starved for three days in the arena, which would not affect the giant tiger's physical strength but also stimulate the giant tiger's desire for flesh and blood.
The tiger came out of the cage and slapped the giant bull to death with one blow. The tiger's claws tore wildly, and the audience let out exclamations and cheered wildly.
The gambler who bought the giant tiger screamed passionately, and the gambler who bought the knight went crazy and cursed!
In a burst of noise, the knight fell apart and became the meal of the black-spotted giant tiger.
"The next match is between Gladiator Gundam and newcomer Xu Feng!"
"Gundam is currently winning six games in a row! God favors him and has assigned him a newcomer in the seventh game. There is no doubt that Gundam will win seven games in a row and tear this newcomer apart."
The host continued to praise Gundam, stirring up the atmosphere in the venue.
Gundam is also an old man in the arena, with seven wins and one loss in half a year, which is six consecutive victories. However, with Xu Feng's immature face, Gundam's winning odds are 1:0.6 and Xu Feng's 1:2.2.
Obviously knowing that Xu Feng was trained by Heiyunqi, the arena did not give Xu Feng extremely high odds. The gamblers in the venue looked at the Gundam victory of 1:0.6 and did not hesitate to wrap their heads around it. All net worth.
Xu Feng looked at Shitou and the others with a smile: "Why don't you buy some for fun? This is 500 taels. I'll win by myself."
For Xu Feng, the middle-grade knight was readily available. Shitou and others also laughed and spent their own money to buy Xu Fengsheng.
With the strength of a mid-level Gundam Knight, he sat under a second-level mid-level black-backed poisonous scorpion. The dark shells provided strong defense. The sting on the tail flashed with dark purple venom, dripping on the ground and raising bursts of poisonous smoke.
Xu Feng summoned the second-level mid-level Xiao Gu, "Xiao Gu, increase your speed and be careful of the poisonous scorpion's hook."
Gundam's chain came, Xu Feng's long knife split it open, the chain wrapped around Xu Feng's long knife, the poisonous scorpion's stinger took this opportunity to stab Xu Feng, Xiaogu quickly took off to avoid the sting's attack, you come and I go There was a stalemate between the two sides.
The audience in the venue saw how hard it was for Gundam to deal with a newcomer, and they cursed loudly.
Gundam's face was solemn. The moment he saw the odds for newcomers in the casino, Gundam knew that today was a fierce battle.
After several rounds, he didn't gain any advantage. "The poisonous scorpion releases the poisonous mist!" The black-backed poisonous scorpion charged up and sprayed out a thick purple poisonous smoke from its stinger, covering the venue.
A little bit of inhalation will cause a numb feeling to invade the nerves. It is not suitable to fight for a long time in the poisonous mist. It needs to be fought quickly.
Xu Feng immediately activated Xiao Gu's skill Wolf Chase, increased his speed, and wielded the long sword in his hand with a sharp green edge to disperse the poisonous smoke. He flashed behind Gundam in his breath and slashed the Gundam to the ground in the direction of the sword.
"I want to try the deep and shallow ones again. I can activate the mount's awakening skills so soon."
Xu Feng shook his head and left the battle area. After receiving his own silver coins, he started to watch other people's matches.
