Chapter 468
At the same time, ten miles outside the city.
After Lan Yu asked his squadron leader to lead a search, his eyes instantly turned cold.
After Lan Yueling came back, she immediately told him what happened.
Lan Yueling's original words at that time were like this.
She and some of her close friends went out for an outing in the city and went to Wangyou Lake.
But before he could reach Wangyou Lake, he was knocked unconscious and taken away by a master who suddenly appeared.
Because she was carrying a concealed weapon for self-defense, she found the opportunity to escape.
But the master has been searching for her.
So Lan Yueling could only hide near Wangyou Lake and did not dare to move around at will.
Then he was captured by the master who went to Wangyou Lake to kill the ferocious beast, and became the bait to attract the ferocious beast to appear.
Then, there was the matter of being rescued by Xiao Zhan.
At first glance, there are no clues to be drawn from this matter.
But Lan Yu is a captain in the City Lord's Mansion, and peeling off the cocoons is what he is good at.
He considers himself to have no enemies.
My daughter is kind and well-behaved and will not offend anyone.
It is obvious that the person who kidnapped Lan Yueling must have a conflict of interest with Lan Yu himself.
The most likely among them are the other captains of the City Lord's Mansion.
But he couldn't guess which captain it was.
But the moment he saw Hong Biao, Lan Yu figured out something.
In the City Lord's Mansion, all the captains below the City Lord are Star Light Realm masters.
Hong Biao is at the ninth level of the Starlight Realm, and Lan Yu appears to be at the seventh level of the Starlight Realm, but is actually at the eighth level, and will soon enter the ninth level.
It would make sense if Hong Biao felt that Lan Yu was a threat and wanted to capture Lan Yueling to threaten him.
Lan Yu's eyes flashed coldly.
"If it was really you, Hong Biao, who did it, I would never let you live!"
Just as Lan Yu was about to leave, he saw a young man wearing black armor running towards him.
This man came to Lan Yu and saluted with clasped fists respectfully:
"Captain Lan Yu, our captain, let me give you a message."
Lan Yu's eyes flashed, "You are the squadron leader under Hong Biao."
The young man nodded.
Lan Yu snorted coldly, "What message did Hong Biao ask you to bring me?"
The man spoke slowly:
"Our brigade captain said that on the day Miss Lan Yueling disappeared, everyone in our brigade was transferred to the south of the city to search for the gangster "Han Santong." Captain Lan Yu also knows about this matter. "
"On the day Miss Lan Yueling returned to the city, all of our team were sent to escort Sui Gong who was handed over to the Domain Lord's Mansion."
Lan Yu sneered, "Hong Biao means that my daughter's disappearance has nothing to do with him, right?"
The squadron leader clasped his fists:
"Our captain didn't say anything else."
Lan Yu glanced at the squadron leader coldly, "Go back and tell Hong Biao that I will investigate this matter clearly. He cannot put aside the relationship with just one word."
The squadron leader didn't waste any words. He nodded and said, "I will definitely bring Captain Lan Yu's words."
After saying that, the squadron leader turned around and left.
Lan Yu's eyes narrowed.
Hong Biao's words were not only saying that Lan Yueling's disappearance had nothing to do with him, Hong Biao, but also hinting to Lan Yu that this matter was done by the city lord.
After all, the city lord has the final say on what missions they, the captains, carry out.
But Lan Yu still can't figure it out for the moment, what's the point of the city lord doing this?
Lan Yu took a deep breath and glanced at the blurry shadow of Songcheng in the distance.
He seemed to be hallucinating, feeling that there was always a layer of fog over Songcheng that he could not see through.
"Is it really going to change?"
Lan Yu muttered to himself, then turned around and continued to search for people from the outside world.
Somewhere in the mountains.
Xiao Zhan and Deng Xiaozhuang stopped.
Deng Xiaozhuang lit a fire, caught another pheasant, and roasted it with ease.
In front of Deng Xiaozhuang, Xiao Zhan took out all the star sand on his body and counted it.
Deng Xiaozhuang was surprised when he saw nearly a thousand grains of star sand on Xiao Zhan's body.
Xiao Zhan directly took out ten pieces of star sand and handed them to Deng Xiaozhuang.
Deng Xiaozhuang was stunned for a moment, then reached out to take it and said, "Thank you, brother."
Xiao Zhan said in a deep voice, "I am in urgent need of the Star Stone right now, so I can't give you too much."
Deng Xiaozhuang quickly clasped his fists and said, "I'm very satisfied."
Xiao Zhan didn't say too many polite words and packed the star sand and put it in his arms.
Deng Xiaozhuang finished roasting the roast chicken, handed it to Xiao Zhan, and said:
"Brother, how many star stones do you need?"
Xiao Zhan frowned:
"The more, the merrier."
Deng Xiaozhuang did not ask Xiao Zhan why he urgently needed so many star stones, but directly said:
"Songcheng, there won't be too many star stones."
"Almost all the ones circulating on the market are star sand."
"All the star stones have been gathered at the City Lord's Mansion and handed over to the Territory Lord's Mansion on a regular basis."
"The next time the City Lord's Mansion will hand over the Star Stone to the Territory Lord's Mansion will be one year from now."
Deng Xiaozhuang's words meant that Xiao Zhan should consider robbing the annual tribute handed over to the Territory Lord's Palace by the City Lord's Palace.
But Xiao Zhan shook his head.
This is undoubtedly a move to seek death.
Xiao Zhan thought for a moment and asked:
"How did the star stone in the City Lord's Mansion come from?"
Deng Xiaozhuang said truthfully:
"Star stones are born in the starry sky, and sometimes they fall in various places like meteorites."
"So, the daily tasks of each city are not only to maintain the stability of their respective management areas, but also to search for the fallen star stones in the management areas, and then hand them all over."
Xiao Zhan frowned: "Can this satisfy the demand?"
Deng Xiaozhuang shook his head:
"In fact, in our Tianlan world, we have a special team that operates in the starry sky all year round. Its only mission is to search for star stone veins in the starry sky. Everyone in that team is a strong person and extremely mysterious. "
"Ninety-nine percent of the star stones in our Tianlan world were brought back by them."
At this point, Deng Xiaozhuang seemed to suddenly realize something, and he looked startled, "Brother, you... you are not from Tianlan World?"
"How could you not know these things otherwise?"
Xiao Zhan didn't hide it, nodded and said: "I am indeed not from Tianlan World."
Hearing Xiao Zhan's admission, Deng Xiaozhuang's expression suddenly became extremely complicated.
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:
"Brother, I suggest you leave Tianlan World as soon as possible."
"Now the entire Tianlan world is searching for people from outside the world. If you are found, you will not be able to escape."
"Although your Moyun world has successfully polluted the original power of our Tianlan world, Tianlan world will not be defeated so easily."
Xiao Zhan shook his head, "I'm not from the Moyun world."
Deng Xiaozhuang was stunned again, and then he breathed a sigh of relief:
"All right."
Xiao Zhan said truthfully:
"To tell you the truth, I come from a lower world."
"I need to bring back a lot of star stones to let more people walk into the starry sky."
Deng Xiaozhuang could not hide the shock on his face.
Low-level world, a word that is rarely mentioned.
Even people like Deng Xiaozhuang don't often mention the lower world.
Because people in the lower world can't even use the power of the stars, at most they can
It is to absorb the power of one's own world to maintain survival.
Deng Xiaozhuang never thought that a person as powerful as Xiao Zhan would be born in the low-level world.
Although Xiao Zhan's strength at the seventh level of the Starlight Realm is not considered a master, but looking at it under the premise of a "low-level world", this is incredible.
Xiao Zhan frowned and asked:
"If I want to get the Star Stone, is there any other way?"
"It's too slow to earn star sand by completing tasks."
Yes, counting the time, Xiao Zhan came here for more than a month, but he only got nearly a thousand grains of star sand.
You know, ten thousand grains of star sand are equivalent to the value of one star stone.
Deng Xiaozhuang shook his head:
"Ten thousand grains of star sand are indeed equivalent to the value of one star stone."
"However, no one is willing to exchange a complete star stone for ten thousand grains of star sand."
"Brother, if you want to get the Star Stone, if the risk is low, there is only one way."
Xiao Zhan frowned, "What can I do?"
Deng Xiaozhuang lowered his voice:
"Go be a scavenger."
"Scavenger?" Xiao Zhan looked confused, "What do you mean?"
Deng Xiaozhuang said in a deep voice:
"In our Tianlan world, there are no big villains."
"But there are many gangster forces that have been wiped out and reappeared, and they can never be cut off."
"Besides this, there is another group called scavengers."
"As the name suggests, scavengers are looking for fallen star stones everywhere."
"This is a shady matter. It is equivalent to snatching star stones from the hands of the city lords everywhere. Once discovered, you will be wanted."
"Tianlan World has a wanted list of scavengers, and everyone on it is a scavenger whose identity has been exposed."
Xiao Zhan's eyes flashed:
"Where is it easy to pick up star stones?"
Deng Xiaozhuang shook his head, "It's not easy to find it anywhere."
"But if you are lucky enough, maybe in the next second, a star stone will fall from the sky and land in front of you, brother."
Xiao Zhan was about to speak when he heard the sound of breaking through the air.
Looking up, a ray of light with a flaming tail was falling rapidly.
Xiao Zhan quickly pulled Deng Xiaozhuang to dodge.
The next moment, a "bang" was heard, and a pit appeared where Xiao Zhan had just stood.
In the pit, there was a purple spar the size of a thumb, hot and emitting white smoke.
Xiao Zhan was stunned.
Deng Xiaozhuang was also stunned.
The next moment, Deng Xiaozhuang urged:
"Brother, pick up this star stone quickly and let's leave quickly!"
Feeling Deng Xiaozhuang's haste, Xiao Zhan reached out and picked up the hot star stone, and then swept away into the distance in a flash.
After a while, the two stopped in a dense forest.
Deng Xiaozhuang panted heavily, bent over, put his hands on his knees, and panted:
"Everyone in the City Lord's Mansion wears a microphone and puts it in their ears."
"The sound of the falling star stone can be heard by them from a long distance away."
"There must be people from the City Lord's Mansion arriving at the place where the Star Stone fell just now."
"If we had run a step too late, we would have been caught red-handed."
Xiao Zhan nodded and looked at the star stone in his hand that had lost its blazing temperature.
In the sunlight, the star stone exudes a soft purple halo, looking crystal clear and extremely beautiful.
Although he picked up a star stone, Xiao Zhan knew very well that if he wanted to pick up more star stones by being a scavenger, it would be time-consuming and labor-intensive. The risk factor would be extremely high and the harvest would be very low. It would not be a long-term solution. Method.
As if he could tell what Xiao Zhan was thinking, Deng Xiaozhuang hesitated for a moment before saying:
「
Actually, there is another way. "
Xiao Zhan asked in a deep voice:
"any solution?"
Deng Xiaozhuang said truthfully:
"The Domain Lord's Mansion will issue some tasks from time to time, all of which are settled with star stones."
"But those tasks are extremely difficult and require at least the Star Glory Realm to complete."
"Brother, with your current strength, there is no way you can take on those missions."
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan also realized that the star stone was an extremely precious thing in the Tianlan world and was not something ordinary people could possess.
But Xiao Zhan still asked without giving up:
"How do people in Tianlan world practice martial arts?"
"Don't you want to use the Star Stone?"
Deng Xiaozhuang shook his head, with a touch of envy in his eyes:
"Only people from the City Lord's Mansion have it."
"The Domain Lord's Mansion will regularly distribute some star stones to the City Lord's Mansion, and the City Lord will distribute them to those at the captain level."
"But ordinary people in the City Lord's Mansion, including the team captains and most of the squadron leaders, are not qualified to use the Star Stone."
Xiao Zhan nodded, "I understand."
"This is monopolizing the star stones in the entire Tianlan world."
