The Invincible Overlord of Heroes
Chapter 566 Difficulties
There was a constant golden light outside, but the people in the big tent were getting quieter and quieter as they ate.
After finally biting off another piece of dragon steak, Xu Lai sighed and said:
"Tell the logistics staff to replace half of the dry food with dragon steak. One piece of this stuff can last at least a day, and it can also save a lot of space."
Leina opened her mouth and said: "Although dragon meat contains powerful energy, it can effectively improve qualifications and treat hidden diseases.
But this thing, after all, is only the best effect for the first time, and the higher the level, the worse the effect.
For us, we didn't feel anything after eating it."
To become an officer, you still have to have something.
Even if you don't count heroes and generals such as Wang Chao and Xiangfang in the big tent, there are 20 or 30 other officers, but none of them can break through the qualifications.
Xu Lai smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. We don't rely on this little dragon meat to make money anyway. The high-level warriors we trained ourselves will definitely be more useful.
Besides, you are going to fight in the dungeon. There are still many black dragons that have escaped. You may also encounter the Red Dragon Legion and the Poison Dragon. Don't be reluctant to give up this little dragon meat."
It's not her own thing anyway, and it's good for her troops. Reina has nothing to be reluctant to give up.
But Xu Lai is so good to her. Not only did he give her artifact-level equipment and treasures directly, but he also helped her build an elf city.
It's impossible for Reina not to be moved. She felt that she should explain the pros and cons to Xu Li clearly.
Xu Lai finally ended today's Black Dragon Banquet with tea instead of wine.
The remaining wounded of the Qingfeng Corps need to be healed. Those who have the qualification to advance will also sign a new agreement tomorrow to extend their military service period. The logistics corps needs to prepare food and supplies.
Therefore, the fastest departure of the Qingfeng Corps will have to wait until the day after tomorrow.
As for Xu Lai, he will rest in the castle for one night today. He will pack up early tomorrow morning and take Jian Yuan, Elvy, Roland and others to the Northern Empire.
Xu Lai found the burial site of the God of War's Hand, but unfortunately, the underground passage closest to the burial site is located in the Western Empire.
That place is now Kerrigan's territory. If Xu Lai brings fewer people, he is afraid of accidents.
If he brings more people, the target will be too obvious and he will not be able to hide it from Kerrigan's eyes and ears.
After thinking about it, Xu Lai still thinks it is not worthwhile to take risks in Kerrigan's territory, and Xu Lai also wants to open up more connections between cities and Qingfeng City.
Therefore, the Northern Empire still needs to be run, and before the auction starts, the more cities the better.
The auction house has not been built yet, so the auction has been in the promotion stage.
This time there are so many dragon materials, Xu Lai simply set the auction for a month later, which is January 10 next year.
January 1st is the beginning of the new year and the most important festival in this world. From January 1st to January 7th, there are theoretically only two official holidays in the whole year.
Xu Lai set the time on January 10th, which can not only avoid the chaos of wild monsters falling from the sky at the beginning of the month, but also ensure that most merchants who want to participate have this time.
He set the time for his trip this time, and he must come back before the end of this month.
After digging out the hand of the god of war and forming the golden statue of the god of war, the existing attributes will inevitably increase greatly.
After obtaining the Queen's Scepter, Su Ya has already designated Qingfeng City. If she can get the bonus of the golden statue of the god of war before the end of the month, the basic growth rate will be more.
There was no talk all night. Xu Lai, who had not rested well for almost two consecutive days, had a rare good sleep at night.
And the next morning, after Xu Lai left the two space rings to Su Ya, he took the troops and the space magician who had not yet left Qingfeng City, and took the teleportation array back to Conaston.
Xu Lai had not been away from this city for too long. He passed by when he went to the imperial capital before.
However, in this one week, this first city in the grassland has been reborn.
It is not easy to build a wall, but it is very fast to demolish it.
The wall of Qingfeng City has been expanded for several months, and the people who were sent out were all recruited farmers, who would not be lazy at all.
But even so, only one side of the wall of Qingfeng City has reached Xu Lai's standard, and the other three sides are still under construction.
The pace was delayed before because of the materials. No matter how amazing the efficiency is, there must be enough ore to support it.
With a single order, Xu Lai directly moved most of the inventory of Miner Town and even Qingfeng City to Mingyue City.
But with the transport team of Conaston crossing thousands of miles of grassland and coming to Qingfeng City with great difficulty, the problem of materials has been made up.
Moreover, Xu Lai left two space rings of Moriel to Su Ya.
The things in the ring of the warehouse of the other dimension were worried about where to move, so the ore, wood and so on in it were simply piled directly on the construction site.
The ring of the warehouse in another dimension is like Xu Lai's space backpack for Moriel. In addition to important items, it also stores all the supplies she needs for eating, drinking, defecating and urinating.
Timber and ore are often used, so Moriel has reserves, but the reserves are not much, about tens of thousands of units of each.
These tens of thousands of units of timber and ore are enough for Moriel to temporarily build a small city when needed.
In the warehouse, there are even dozens of dungeon hearts in the dungeon.
Xu Lai cannot use these things directly, but fortunately he remembers that the temple helped him deal with the stronghold hearts he obtained before.
After asking Elena, it turns out that there is indeed such a purification spell, but it requires a formal priest to perform it.
Formal priests can purify the village level, priests can purify the fortress level, bishops correspond to the base camp, and archbishops can purify the castle level.
There is no so-called main city in the city of the empire, so the highest level is only the castle level.
Above the castle level, there is only the imperial capital level after being promoted to the parliament, and this level cannot be stacked up with the castle heart.
For example, in the dungeon, there will be a main city-level city, and there will also be a main city-level dungeon heart, which requires the Crimson Bishop to preside over the purification ceremony.
The dozens of dungeon hearts of various levels have all been handed over to Elena by Xu Lai.
Elena said that she would send all the priests she brought to the temple after arranging them in Qingfeng, Conaston and the city of Martel affiliated to Xu Lai.
In theory, the temple should be paid for helping with purification.
However, Xu Lai could hide it from others, but he didn't need to do so from the Temple. He could use the Temple's bounty on Moriel as a reward.
Moriel, the Queen of Dungeons and the Queen of Dragons, was ranked fourth on the Temple's bounty list, a super target with a total value of 3.5 million merits.
The Great Lord of the Abyss, the Great Devil Kerrigan, was only worth 6 million.
Speaking of which, if Xu Lai took this bounty, let alone helping him purify some of the Dungeon Hearts, even if he took all the maps and information he had taken before, it might not be enough to deduct.
It can only be said that most of the information in the Temple is top secret and cannot be bought with money or merits.
When Xu Lai came, he didn't notify anyone, so except for the officials and guards in charge of the teleportation array who saluted him, no one else came to greet him.
Xu Lai didn't bring many people with him. Elvi plus more than 30 Seraphim, and a dozen Holy Light Knights brought by Roland, plus Jian Yuan and Xu Lai, a total of 50 people.
50 people, not too many, not too few, not too conspicuous, and if disguised as a caravan, it would not attract too much attention.
A team of more than 50 people does not seem to have much cargo. If they walk in the wild, ordinary bandits and bandits will not touch them.
If they are really unlucky and run into a large group of wild monsters or are targeted by others, Xu Lai really doesn't care much about a team of thousands of people.
Xu Lai promised the space magician a whole black dragon skin.
You know, the black dragon skin is strong enough, not only has high defense but also can resist a lot of spells. It is a treasure that many magicians dream of.
A whole black dragon skin, even if it is damaged when cutting, it will cost at most one-third to make a complete set of black dragon leather armor, black dragon leather boots, black dragon leather gloves and leather hat.
With such a high price, what Xu Lai wants people to do is naturally so easy.
In the next month, the mage will take himself and his beloved apprentices to connect all the cities connected to Conaston with Qingfeng City.
Of course, Conaston connects to many cities, but some cities have permanently closed the channels connecting to Conaston, such as the Western Empire.
Therefore, the KPI set by Xu Lai only includes the number of connections, and the specific cities are left to the magician to run.
If he works harder, he can completely connect the cities with towers and barriers to Qingfeng City through multiple cities.
However, to open teleportation arrays to each other, it is not only necessary for space mages to provide space beacons for teleportation arrays, but also involves the diplomatic level.
Just like on Earth, countries send diplomatic ambassadors to each other. If the city lords of connected cities are unwilling to connect, no one can do anything.
Given Xu Lai's relationship with the imperial nobles, if he does not show up, the probability of mutual connection will be even greater.
After simply asking the officers guarding the teleportation array, Xu Lai did not intend to meet Jimmy, Lin Qiu and others.
He did not even take a look at his castle in Conaston.
After asking clearly, Jimmy was already reorganizing the troops, and the new legion had been reorganized. It would soon set out to sweep the grassland according to Xu Lai's wishes. He then waited at ease at the teleportation array.
Using the channels of the temple, Xu Lai had communicated with two cities that needed to be transferred.
However, although the owners of these two cities agreed to the teleportation, the teleportation request took a long time to be accepted.
A flash of white light, after waiting for more than an hour, Xu Lai finally arrived at Orlando, a large city in the Northern Empire.
Orlando is located on the edge of the Northern Empire, not far from the grassland, with only a dozen small and medium-sized cities in between.
Because it is close to the grassland, it is relatively convenient to buy horses in Orlando.
Therefore, most of the high-level cavalry of the Northern Empire came from Orlando, which is also one of the most important cities in the Northern Empire.
According to the information provided by the temple, the lord of Orlando should have an alliance with Aini.
It is precisely because of this alliance that the lord of Orlando can get a large number of war horses at a low price and is qualified to form his own cavalry corps.
However, this ally refused to help when the grassland needed reinforcements, citing the demon invasion.
When Aini was attacked by Xu Lai, this ally did not refuse, but the fall of Konaston Castle was too fast, and there was no time to ask Aini for help.
In short, because of Aini, this city does not seem to be friendly to Xu Lai.
Even though the temple had cleared the relationship and did not even reveal Xu Lai's identity, it still put the transmission request from Kaunaston Castle on hold for more than an hour.
After coming out of the teleportation array, Xu Lai immediately found the teleportation officer and expressed that he was going to another base camp-level town in the Northern Empire.
This is a small city, and the teleportation array has only opened to a few important cities.
The teleportation array in Emerald City was destroyed in the war, and Marquis Anderson of Avic happened to be the sworn enemy of the lord of this small city.
The relationship with Aiweike, the largest economic city in the north, is not good, so it is understandable that this small city cannot develop.
The only way for Xu Lai to reach this small town quickly is to transfer through Orlando.
In order to keep a low profile when he went out, Xu Lai specially disguised himself. All the knights and angels wore thick cloaks.
However, there are dozens of tall knights, plus the Seraphs who are much taller and larger than ordinary people. Even if they cover their wings, they can be seen as extraordinary. At first glance, they cannot be ordinary people.
But the official in charge of the transmission said arrogantly:
"Go and pay first, then line up and wait slowly."
It's okay to go and pay first, but in line, Xu Lai looked at the empty teleportation array and couldn't help frowning:
"There is no one here except the mage who presides over the teleportation array. How should I line up?"
The teleportation officer said impatiently: "That's not something you need to worry about. Many people have already submitted teleportation applications, and they will come over one after another.
You just applied now, so of course you have to be ranked behind these applications.
When it's your turn, I will send someone to notify you. "
What Xu Lai cared about most during this trip was time.
The reason why he dresses so low-key is so that he can avoid getting into trouble and achieve his goals quickly.
So, he suppressed his anger and said: "Hello, they are not here now after all. Can you be accommodating and invite brothers to have tea?"
While talking, Xu Lai took out the money bag he had prepared in advance from his space backpack.
These money bags are prepared to deal with various emergencies, such as robbery or something. If you are afraid of trouble, it is better to just throw a bag of money, which may be faster.
The teleportation officer casually weighed the money bag in his hand. Experience told him that this amount of money was definitely not a small amount.
But remembering the lord's instructions, he didn't dare to let it go casually.
After carefully putting away the money bag, the teleportation officer coughed and said: "Easy to say, easy to say, anyway, this batch of teleporting people haven't come yet, so I can just let you join the queue.
However, the teleportation array is a military facility in Orlando. Although the temple has given you a greeting and the lord has approved your use.
But our lord has also specifically stated that we must ask you clearly about your itinerary and purpose. If it conflicts with Orlando's interests, I cannot just let you go. "
Xu Lai frowned again.
"We are just transiting in Orlando. Our destination is thousands of kilometers away from Orlando. It shouldn't affect Orlando at all."
The teleporter shrugged and said, "There's nothing you can do about it. Did the lord personally tell you that he came from Conaston? You must ask everything clearly." (End of Chapter)
