Zhang Xiaoman wanted to go to the abyss in order to help Sirna save the undead tribe. This was something they had agreed upon beforehand.
Archdruid Akatus has been dead for too many days. In addition, he was seriously injured before his death and too much power was lost in his body. Direct resurrection would inevitably affect his strength.
The land of the undead in the abyss is a good place, where a large number of high-level undead gather.
Their year-round residence has caused the land there to be infected by the aura of the undead, turning it into a corrupt soil with a strong aura of death.
In these corrupt soils, the vitality in the living body will be greatly suppressed, and the weak can directly fall into coma until death.
If Arcatus' body is placed on it to be nurtured for a period of time and then resurrected using necromancy, his strength should be retained even more.
After hearing what Zhang Xiaoman said, Regina thought about it and nodded in agreement.
Although as the queen of the elves, she has a lot of things to do now. Various post-war rectifications have made her so busy that she can hardly stay away from her for several days.
However, she still planned to go to Akatus's resurrection ceremony.
After all, he was her uncle and the great druid of the elves. No matter what, she needed to go and witness it in person.
But it is still some time before Akatus is resurrected. In addition to the body needing about a month to be nurtured, Zhang Xiaoman still has some things to deal with.
This time the war of gods was a huge sacrifice, and the Binding Breakers Association suffered heavy losses, with saints falling one after another within the organization.
Fortunately, with the existence of the necromancer Zhang Xiaoman, the Golden Holy Dragon King Alculus and Akatus were able to be resurrected, retaining some power to some extent.
But Dwarf King Yohad is still in a coma. Although his life is no longer in danger, even if he survives successfully, he will lose all his strength and become a cripple who cannot leave his bed.
His son took over his father's responsibilities and became the new king of the dwarves, leading the dwarves back to their castle.
The original founder of the organization and the guardian of the human kingdom, McAvey Lecentra, completely left everyone.
Before leaving, he had entrusted the organization to Zhang Xiaoman, hoping that he could lead the organization to continue to protect the continent of Aileen.
But Zhang Xiaoman knew that he could not stay here forever. The Star Alliance still needed to go back by himself, and he would have to leave one day.
Therefore, he entrusted the Bound Breaker to Fox, the last disciple of McCarvey and the newly promoted saint in the Bound Breaker Association.
However, there is no distinction between top and bottom within the Binding Breakers Association, and there is no such thing as a president.
It was only because McAlevey was the founder and the link that connected everyone that everyone subconsciously focused on him.
Now, although Zhang Xiaoman has entrusted the Binding Breakers Association to Fox, everyone inside still regards him as the center. Although he is not the president, in fact he is almost the same.
After all, this is a place where strength speaks for itself. Zhang Xiaoman showed enough strength in previous battles, so he is naturally respected.
What's more, the two current saints in the organization, Alculus and Sirna, as well as the soon-to-be-resurrected Akatus, are all his, which further establishes Zhang Xiaoman's status in the organization. .
Despite the fact that the Binding Breakers are now a bit in name only. There are only three real living saints left in the organization: Zhang Xiaoman, Regina and Fox, but the Binding Breakers still have a very good foundation.
Due to McCarvey, the entire Magic Guild can basically be regarded as the property of the Unbound. Now that Fox has officially become a saint, the Iron Forge Chamber of Commerce will inevitably be completely integrated.
Fortunately for the Iron Furnace Merchant Guild, the Magic Guild is a behemoth that can compete with the Mercenary Guild. It has footprints all over the world and cannot be underestimated.
In addition, this battle promoted the friendship between several saints, and the elves and dwarves also promised to fully cooperate with the operation of the organization.
Now, Zhang Xiaoman suddenly found that he had an unparalleled power in this world. If he was willing, he could even directly overthrow the entire human dynasty and become the new king.
But of course he had no such intention.
What Zhang Xiaoman needs to do these days is to perfect some of his newly mastered spells, including the undead magic used to resurrect the dead.
The alchemist Ify, as his assistant, has been taking care of the affairs of Kablan's alchemy workshop.
Now in the King of Talata City, the reputation of Kablan Alchemy Workshop has become the most popular alchemy potion shop in the mercenary world.
Although the alchemy potions sold here have all kinds of strange side effects, it has to be said that compared to similar products, its price is really very cheap.
Anyway, the side effects of these medicines are not that serious. At most, they are constant farting, burping, hair loss, etc., but these are nothing compared to precious coins and lives.
But again, some people like it and some people hate it.
This new type of alchemical potion is very popular in many lower-level mercenary circles, but it is not so important in the eyes of some large mercenary groups.
After all, they all have their own alchemy workshops that they cooperate with, and their funds are abundant. There is no need to use this kind of potion that will inexplicably destroy their image.
Soon, two different voices quickly developed in Talata King City.
One is an ordinary mercenary who fully supports the improved alchemical potion, and the other is a mercenary from a large mercenary group who expresses disdain for it.
One of the two people thinks that the other party is stupid for having too much money, and the other thinks that these people are shameless in order to save money and are full of superiority.
However, in fact, no matter how these two groups of people disagree, it does not affect Zhang Xiaoman's ability to make money.
Because with the popularity of new medicines, more and more alchemy shops began to purchase goods from him.
It can be said that he has a stake in all the alchemy and pharmacy shops in Talata King City.
This large-scale mercenary group also promotes a high-end alchemy product.
That was a potion from the "Wildfire Tavern", a new industry in the city.
These potions are all of high quality, are at least 30% more effective than ordinary potions on the market, and have no side effects.
Many mid- to high-level professionals like to buy this potion at the Wildfire Tavern.
However, the potions in the Wildfire Tavern are not sold directly, so you need something called "points" to redeem them.
If you want to get points, you must complete the tasks posted in the Wildfire Tavern.
Tasks will also come with various forms of rewards, such as money, item rewards, and point rewards.
It is worth mentioning that the tasks released in the Wildfire Tavern provide quite generous monetary rewards, and the item rewards are also dazzling and drooling.
Exquisite enchanted weapons, high-end armors engraved with arcane runes, super potent alchemical potions...
All this made the mercenaries look at it with greed.
In addition, item rewards sometimes include some strange things.
For example, an adventure map of a certain area, some materials for alchemy or forging, or even a domesticated storm wolf mount.
Not to mention, there are valuable points in addition to these things.
Everyone knows that points can be exchanged for a large number of treasured items in wildfire-related stores, which made the price of points once skyrocketed on the black market.
Each of these generous rewards is attracting mercenaries to come and receive tasks.
It's a pity that although the rewards provided by the Wildfire Tavern are very generous, its disadvantage is that the amount of tasks is relatively small, and the task content is more difficult than ordinary mercenary tasks.
This situation is difficult for ordinary mercenaries to complete. Only professionals with intermediate strength or above can be qualified to challenge it.
Of course, the people who accepted the mission were given a new name in the Wildfire Tavern - bounty hunters.
Their missions usually focus on exploring unknown areas, supplemented by obtaining special materials, but they have never had any assassination missions.
Although the Wildfire Tavern came into being, it has not offended too many people so far.
The mercenary union, whose interests were affected, knew the true identity of the owner behind the tavern and would not say anything more.
Moreover, although the Wildfire Tavern has taken away some of their business, because the tavern is full of difficult tasks, it does not have a great impact on the mercenary guild.
After the seven guardians of the mercenary union held an emergency meeting to discuss for a day and night, they finally made a strategy to win over them for cooperation.
The reason why Zhang Xiaoman wanted to establish the Wildfire Tavern was to cultivate a true force of his own in this world.
Although the Bound Breakers have been influenced by him, there are actually no formal members within the Bound Breakers.
The accompanying organizations such as the Magic Guild and the Iron Furnace Chamber of Commerce actually have their own methods of operation, and it is impossible for Zhang Xiaoman to truly control them.
If you want to completely integrate and utilize the resources of this world, then Zhang Xiaoman must have a method of his own.
The Wildfire Tavern is one of them.
The main purpose of the tavern's existence, in addition to helping him explore possible resource gaps, is also a very important task to collect various special materials in the world.
The searched materials will be handed over to Zhang Xiaoman to screen them one by one, keeping the items that can be effective for him, and investing the rest in alchemy and forging, making the most of these resources and accumulating his power in this world. background.
And his background in this world is also the background of the future Star Alliance.
Maybe just a world, especially a small world like the continent of Erin that has not been fully developed, cannot tell much.
But Zhang Xiaoman has a plan. If one day, when the footprints of the Wildfire Tavern spread all over the universe, then the benefits he will bring to the Star Alliance will be huge.
This can no longer be summed up by the simple words "Vanguard Explorer". This will definitely be the cornerstone for the Star Alliance to become as huge a force as the Dark Spirit Star Alliance.
…
A week passed quickly in Zhang Xiaoman's busy schedule. Things in Talata King City have been dealt with for the time being. In addition to some dark spirit spells being consolidated and improved, Zhang Xiaoman also stabilized matters related to the Wildfire Tavern. After it was settled, it was handed over to the temporary manager Yifei to take care of it, and he could get out of it.
And Sirna and Regina had already set off to the Howling Abyss one step ahead of schedule.
Although Zhang Xiaoman has the means to teleport, in this non-emergency situation, there is no need to waste his cuteness on teleportation.
Both women rode the frost dragon there. Judging from the speed, it took about 1 to 2 days to arrive.
It is worth mentioning that Ziwei, who came with them, also ran over in a hurry.
This woman is like a curious baby, full of enthusiasm for the world.
Zhang Xiaoman took him with him, making him feel less worried under his gaze.
After all, the two parties have only been in contact for more than half a month, and neither of them knows him very well, and he cannot completely trust her.
Talata King City, Wildfire Tavern headquarters.
Walking out of the luxurious private alchemy room, Zhang Xiaoman handed a bottle of potion exuding a cold aura to a senior alchemist.
This is the freezing potion he has just improved. On the basis of the original one, it has added a power that can corrupt life. Not only will the body of those who come into contact with it freeze, but their flesh and blood will wither. The area where the potion is sprayed will turn into something in a short time. A death zone, the killing effect is very huge.
Obviously, this was improved by combining the power of necromancy.
The high-level alchemist was like a respectful apprentice at this moment. He carefully took the potion bottle from Zhang Xiaoman's hand and placed it in a box made during the ban. Only then did he feel relaxed. One breath.
Zhang Xiaoman waved his hand and signaled the other party to leave.
The morning wind blew the wind chimes in front of the tavern into a refreshing laughter.
Although it is still only morning, a large number of mercenaries have already gathered in the tavern to take over tasks. After all, the tasks in the tavern are scarce resources, and many middle- and high-level professionals have to fight for their scalps to get them. .
Oh, by the way, this group of people are no longer considered mercenaries. They are called bounty hunters here.
Zhang Xiaoman looked at such a lively scene and felt quite pleased.
Having quickly established a foothold in Talata King City, the next thing he needs to do is to spread the footprints of Lihuo Rescue throughout the entire continent of Erin.
He raised his left hand and looked at the time on the Star Network terminal. He estimated that Sirna and others had arrived at their destination by now.
After finding a seat with few people, Zhang Xiaoman leisurely brewed a glass of Rune plum wine unique to this world, and took a bite of grilled Kodo meat that was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, golden and oily, and then returned to his room.
After he slightly sensed the location of the Zixiao Divine Sword, he directly launched the infinite teleportation and disappeared from the spot.
