"Master, you have obtained all the information about the Pearl of Memory, so there is no need for me to repeat it again! Where should we go next?"
Aofeng's eyes were long and firm, "Of course we will go to Hopeless City. It is the Magic City there and there will definitely be more opportunities!"
"Qicai thinks some preparations need to be made, because everyone needs to eat and sleep. You are penniless and unable to move. Qicai will guide you to collect some rare herbs in the forest, and then hunt some magical beasts and rare treasures in exchange for daily use."
"Also, you need to make a Qiankun bag first, which can hold these things..."
One month later, a young man came to the Demonic City of Hopeless City. He had green eyes and looked around curiously. His animal skin clothes were particularly eye-catching, attracting all the demons to look back.
"Master, you are too conspicuous like this, hurry up and get yourself a decent outfit!"
Aofeng walked into a drug store. It was a small store with no customers. The shopkeeper was drowsy behind the counter. Seeing someone coming in, he replied lazily: "Are you seeing a doctor or buying medicine? There are also advanced elixirs for all levels of cultivation here, I guarantee your satisfaction!"
"Shopkeeper, do you want to collect wild medicinal materials?"
When the shopkeeper saw that he was wearing animal skins and looked very shabby, he responded coldly: "If it is a good medicinal material, our shop will naturally accept it!"
Aofeng casually touched it from the Qiankun bag on his waist. The fragrance of the medicine overflowed and the light shone. This medicine was a human-shaped root with five-color markings. The shopkeeper's eyes were straight and his tongue was tied, "This, is this the Demon Emperor's Ginseng? Intermediate level The main medicinal ingredient of Mo Yuan Dan?”
Aofeng touched it again and took out a green fruit with bloody stripes and a faint red light. The shopkeeper's jaw dropped in shock, "Is this a top-quality magic fruit? Oh my God, I'm only here." See you in the pharmacopoeia, I finally saw the real treasure today!”
Aofeng smiled, "Do you want to collect these from here?"
"Of course, of course. For such a rare medicinal material, how much do you have and how much do we charge?"
"Okay, let's exchange it all for magic crystals!" Aofeng has already inquired about it. Magic crystals are the hard currency here.
When Aofeng came out of the drug store, the shopkeeper greeted him respectfully outside the door, "You can cooperate with us for a long time. Although the store is not big, it is the branch of Guanglingtang, with a gold-lettered signboard and fair prices."
Aofeng left and went to the cloth store to buy some outfits. He was a handsome young man because of his clothes. Then go to the restaurant to eat and drink wildly. It is indeed a hundred times stronger than the poisonous insects and monsters, and it is extremely enjoyable.
After running around for three days, I bought a small courtyard in the east of the city and finally settled down.
At night, Qicai reported: "Master, I have been wandering around the city in the past few days and collected a lot of information. In addition to the Demon King, there are four main forces in Hopeless City, namely the four demon gods. They have their own fiefdoms, and at the same time they are still in Hopeless City. The city does business.”
"Suolong's Guangling Hall monopolizes the refining and sales of elixirs, which is equivalent to controlling the lifeblood of demons' cultivation and advancement. It is the most lucrative job. Tang Miao's Qiaoling Pavilion specializes in armor and magic weapons, which is also very popular. Good job. Demon God Mo Mu’s Jingjinglou specializes in weapons and enjoys a high reputation among demons. Other than that, restaurants, inns, clothing shops, etc. are all controlled by some high-level demon generals, and they are all in their own way."
"What about Mo Mingjue? What is his sphere of influence?"
"It is said that Qi Jue is an upright person and does not care about money, so he had to make friends with cultivators, so he established an organization called the Blood Alliance. In fact, he formed a team to hunt monsters, increase his experience, and improve his cultivation."
Aofeng nodded, "This profession is exactly what I want. I will join the Blood Alliance tomorrow."
The next day I went out and bought armor and weapons at a roadside store. They were all cheap street vendors. The day before yesterday, I spent all the magic crystals on buying real estate and using my hands and selling medicinal materials. Now I am empty-handed, waiting for the rice to be put into the pot, and I am really short of money.
The Blood Alliance is located in the east of the city. It is a majestic three-story building with red walls and green tiles, tall cornices. Pushing the door open, you will see a spacious hall with eight majestic pillars. There were more than ten demons gathered inside, either drinking or chatting, standing or sitting in different shapes. Everyone has a fierce look in their eyes, full of murderous intent, and they are ruthless characters.
In the middle of the counter, the middle-aged man in charge was looking down at the account book. Aofeng stepped forward to explain his purpose. The steward raised his eyelids and looked at his sloppy outfit. He looked down on him from the bottom of his heart and said, "New here? The membership fee is 5,000 magic crystals."
Aofeng spread his hands and said, "I'm penniless, can you pay me later?"
"Don't have any money? Duanhe Wharf in the west of the city is looking for loading and unloading coolies. They don't charge money and they have to take care of the food!"
One sentence made Aofeng speechless, and a penny stumped the heroic man. At this time, someone came in and shouted: "The blood swamp is 'leaving' the territory, hunting the green-feathered marten, entrusted by Qiaoling Pavilion, collecting furs and other items, and each one will be rewarded with 20,000 magic crystals."
After shouting several times, no one responded. Some people sneered, "Can't you just deal with the little monsters in the fringe area by yourself? You have to form a team. 20,000 magic crystals are not enough to fill the gap between your teeth!"
Someone else booed, "There's a newcomer over there. He can't even pay the membership fee. He's hungry and doesn't choose what to eat. It's a good idea to take him with you."
Aofeng quickly raised his hand, "I'm willing to go with my brother, and I only need 5,000 to join the alliance after the event is completed!"
The man was a little embarrassed, "But you haven't joined the alliance yet. This is against the rules!"
Someone else encouraged: "Jueshen often says that demons can do whatever they want, regardless of trivial matters. Don't always follow the rules?"
The man had no choice but to wave to Aofeng, "Newcomer, my name is Zhiyang. Let's set off immediately. Is it okay?"
Aofeng nodded, then announced his name, and the two set off. Going south out of the city, the land is dark red in color, with sparse trees and decaying grass, and the trails wind straight into the depths of the mountain forest.
"What attributes are you? What spells are you proficient in?" Zhiyang asked.
"I'm proficient in the fire attribute..." Aofeng replied blurtly, but Qicai immediately interrupted him, "Be low-key and reserved with strangers. Master, don't reveal your cards early!"
"I'm proficient in body movements and have a lot of strength. I'll be at your disposal."
Zhiyang is a little disappointed. He runs fast and has great strength, so he is the material of a loader. What use can this team be used to fight monsters? He sighed, "I am also a fire attribute. You will support me accordingly when the time comes."
The two of them continued on their way. Qicai said: "This person is only a middle-level demon soldier. He probably doesn't have much ability. He can just deal with it casually. Self-preservation is more important."
Aofeng thought to himself, "This little girl is really a charlatan. She asked me to lie down and mess around on my first mission, and she didn't get a bad reputation?"
Further forward, the trees gradually became denser, and there was a swamp next to it. The water was dark red and there was a light mist floating in it. Zhiyang stopped and said, "This is the territory of the green-feathered marten. I'll drop bait to attract it. This beast is extremely fast. Let's outflank it on both sides."
He took out a roast chicken from the Qiankun bag, placed it on the ground, and then hid it in the grass opposite, while Aofeng watched in the shadow of the bluestone opposite.
The aroma overflows and the water ripples. Qicai suddenly said: "Something is not right. I feel a powerful magic power coming."
Before he finished speaking, something jumped out of the water as fast as lightning, and the roasted chicken turned into a pile of broken bones. It is as big as an ox, with a streamlined body, and its green fur is smooth and soft, and does not touch a drop of water. The eyes of the marten are like scarlet pearls. Extraordinarily bright.
"This is actually a beast at the beginning of the beast general level. Why does it appear here?"
At this time, Zhiyang had already attacked, and a huge net made of blazing flames came down and covered the green-feathered mink. The monster's fur was not damaged by the blazing fire. It tore through the fire net with a swipe of its sharp claws and turned back to pounce. Toward the sun.
Zhiyang hurriedly used the knife to hold his sharp claws, but was suppressed by the monster and retreated step by step.
Aofeng jumped up from his hiding place and slashed with his sword. The smooth fur of the monster drew the sword edge aside.
The demonic beast was furious, its ermine tail stood up, and it swept across like a mace. Aofeng parried and was hit ten feet away. Over there, Zhiyang was also suppressed on the stone, struck with a claw, flew ten feet away, and passed out.
At the critical moment, Aofeng did not dare to hold back any more. He used his "Soaring to the Sky" to the extreme. It was as fast as lightning and dazzling. The monster jumped up and down, like a stream of light, and its speed was not lost at all. Aofeng didn't even touch its fur. .
"Master, its fur is not afraid of swords and can withstand ice and fire. It is not an option if it continues like this."
Aofeng changed his moves, swayed, and launched multiple illusions, surrounding the monsters. The green-feathered marten rushed left and right, tearing and biting, destroying the illusions one by one.
It turned around and rushed over again, waving its claws to deliver a fatal blow to Aofeng. Ao Feng had a sneer on his lips, sheathed his sword and folded his arms, feeling content. The mink jumped into the air, suddenly let out a cry, fell to the ground, twisted and twitched, and soon became stiff and motionless.
"It turns out that the master combined the illusion with the poison of invisibility, leading the monster to bite him, and injecting the deadly poison into it. How clever!"
Aofeng leaned over to check Zhiyang's injuries, but he only hit his head and fainted. Qicai said: "Master, you can't reveal your strength so early. Just give him a knife and kill him and silence him!"
"You are really a vicious woman who kills people if you disagree with her. There are many ways to hide it, and you don't have to silence it!"
At this moment, Zhiyang Youyou woke up, and Aofeng quickly fell to the ground, pretending to be unconscious. Zhiyang first confirms the situation of the monster, and then claps to call Aofeng.
"What happened?" Aofeng pretended to be surprised, "I was swept by the iron tail of this monster and lost consciousness. Was it you who killed the monster alone?"
Zhiyang was stunned, and Nuonuo said: "I was also hit by it and fell unconscious. Maybe I killed it by using a big move in panic!"
Zhiyang's victorious return caused quite a stir in the Blood Alliance. No one has caught a beast general, a junior monster, for a long time, and it is very rare in the edge of the blood swamp.
Everyone gathered around to watch, commenting on what you said and what I said. Some people were stroking the smooth fur of the green-feathered mink and couldn't put it down. Suddenly someone asked: "How did you hunt this monster without a single scar on its body?"
When Aofeng saw that his secret was about to be exposed, he quickly answered: "Brother Zhiyang was afraid that the sword would damage the fur, so he hit it hard with his fist. The monster suffered fatal internal injuries!"
Zhiyang also said: "Thanks to this brother for your help! Although he is a newcomer, he is a rare expert. Bosses, please give more support and care in the future!"
The two compliment each other, which is also a win-win situation.
After handing in the task, he unexpectedly received a bounty of 50,000 yuan. Zhiyang was very happy and gave Aofeng 20,000 magic crystals. Aofeng refused, and Zhiyang patted him heavily on the shoulder: "We have been through life and death, and we will be good brothers from now on. This trivial matter does not matter. Don't mind. Remember to wear a decent outfit, you are known for your clothes, otherwise others will look down upon you!"
