The mage in the late Qing Dynasty

Zhao Chuanxin suddenly thought of something. During the melee in Rune City, the rebel leader had never been seen on the key battlefield.

This led Zhao Chuanxin to make two guesses: First, the rebel leader was incompetent and only had leadership skills, so he would not appear on the frontline battlefield; second, the rebel leader was an old yinbi who only acted when life and death were at stake. Will take action.

Throughout the world, the ruler of the virtual world, the lord of the dazzling oasis, and the emperor of the desert all possess supreme military power.

Therefore, Zhao Chuanxin guessed that the leader of the rebels was probably an old Yinbi.

If anyone wants to see the Fearless Vanguard, it's probably the leader of the rebels.

[Dudu pulled me and said: Don’t go out. 】

[I tell everyone: If I don’t go out, it may cause misunderstanding and suspicion. Now that the outcome of the war outside is unclear, we cannot offend the Desert Emperor and the rebels at the same time. 】

[So I decided to go out and meet them for a while. 】

[After I go out, I will seal the gap. 】

[Dozens of rebels gathered outside, and the person shouting the message turned out to be a descendant of a noble. 】

[The descendants of the nobles saw me and said happily: Fearless Pioneer, we meet again. 】

[I responded enthusiastically as well. 】

[The noble descendant said: Thanks to the protection of your friends, if it weren’t for those two children and that furry friend, I would have almost died on the battlefield. 】

[I said: No need to be polite, we are all friends, right? 】

[The descendants of the nobles nodded in approval: Fearless Pioneer, it is our leader who wants to see you. 】

Sure enough.

[I said: What is the purpose of your leader meeting me? 】

[The descendants of the nobles try their best to be friendly: I can't know this. No one knows what the leader is thinking, but he has no ill intentions towards you. You will know it when he meets you. 】

This confirmed Zhao Chuanxin's guess that the leader of the rebels was in a dark mood.

[I followed the descendants of the nobles and walked towards the palace. 】

[The palace has been occupied by the rebel leader, and obviously the treasure house also belongs to him. 】

[When we were almost there, I asked the descendants of the nobles: How is the war going? 】

[The descendants of the nobles said: The Desert Emperor suffered a heavy blow and was driven to a corner of the north of the city by us. He has become a frightened bird and cannot come out. He just defends. Fearless Pioneer, I heard about your heroic deeds, they are truly amazing. 】

[The rebels around me looked at me in awe. 】

[We arrived at the palace. 】

[The rebel leader is now wearing a crown symbolizing the emperor of Rune City, sitting high on the throne. The place that was originally covered with dust was now wiped clean and bright, making the palace more popular. 】

[Unlike when the Desert Emperor was there, there were people walking around in the palace. In addition to brave warriors, there were also many women. 】

[It can be seen that the rebel leader is a real person, not a puppet. He has seven emotions and six desires, which is completely different from the desert emperor. 】

[The leader of the rebels is wearing a black robe and has a sinister face. He is looking down at me from the throne and is serious about his words. 】

[I saluted. 】

Zhao Chuanxin thought of the puppet soldiers who were chopped into pieces by him, and wanted to ask for it from the rebel leader. After all, I have helped you so much and it is not too much to give you some benefits.

[The rebel leader said to me: Fearless Vanguard, your heroic deeds are widely spread in Rune City. The desert emperor is militaristic and overthrowing him will be good for all of us. We will remember your contributions to RuneCity. But for the sake of future peace, I want you to hand over the central control rune. I don't want a second desert emperor controlling an army of puppets to appear here. 】

Zhao Chuanxin narrowed his eyes: "Okay, okay, I haven't asked for the benefits yet, so it's not enough for you to take advantage first, right?"

[I was shocked and told the truth: I have not mastered the central control rune. 】

[The rebel leader's face became even more sinister, and he said coldly: Fearless Vanguard, the Lord of the Underground once shouted that you have mastered the central control rune when he escaped from Rune City. And, my new recruits can attest to this. 】

[After the rebel leader finished speaking, a woman with her face covered came out from the side, it was the Hongdao nun. 】

[The female monk from Hongdao looked at me deeply and said calmly: Fearless Pioneer, you have already taken advantage of the treasure house, so why not hand over the central control rune. 】

[I didn’t expect things to develop like this. 】

Zhao Chuanxin understood that the rebel leader was afraid of him, but the Hongdao nun, a troublemaker, changed her tune and joined the new emperor.

He wrote:

[I said: The Lord of the Underground did tell me the central control rune, but I didn’t remember it, let alone master it. I have here the contract signed at that time. The contract only said that the underground master told me the secret of the central control runes, but it did not guarantee that he would let me learn it. 】

[I presented the contract to the rebel leader. 】

[The rebel leader and the Hongdao nun were speechless for a long time after reading. 】

[The rebel leader asked: So, when the Lord of the Underworld leaves, you will remind us to capture him? 】

[I said: Exactly. Later you also found out that in order to get revenge on me, he said that I had mastered the central control rune. 】

[The rebel leader frowned tightly: Fearless Pioneer, how much do you remember? 】

[I'll tell you the truth: less than one third. 】

Zhao Chuanxin didn't know what the rebel leader was capable of, otherwise he might have turned against him directly.

The spicy one next door, give me a thumbs up.

You'll be floating as soon as you take over, right?

He can help defeat the Desert Emperor, and he can also cause chaos to give the Desert Emperor a chance to make a comeback.

As for the life and death of the residents of Rune City, who cares?

Zhao Chuanxin wrote:

[I said: Your majesty, the new emperor, when you were fighting against the Desert Emperor, I risked my life. Even though I was injured, infected, had a high temperature and could fry giant beetle meat, I still kept fighting. My legs were comminutedly fractured and I still killed the enemy. Let the Desert Emperor's The light blade was amputated at a high position to my neck and I was still charging. The force that hit me was as high as 1 million balls. Sand gritted my teeth and stood up again. Seeing that the rebels were about to lose, I was blown away by the explosion of the True Sight Crystal as far as 100,000 black dragon horns and ran away again. Come back... I'm in trouble, His Majesty the new emperor. 】

[Rebel leader:...]

[Female monk from Hongdao:...]

Zhao Chuanxin continued to write:

[I said: So, I dare to ask for something from His Majesty the new emperor. 】

[The rebel leader asked in confusion: What do you want? 】

Zhao Chuanxin wrote:

[I said: I want a hundred energy fluctuation and convergence rune fragments. 】

Zhao Chuanxin did not forget that thing.

[Female monk from Hongdao:...]

[The muscles in the rebel leader’s cheeks trembled: That’s impossible. 】

Zhao Chuanxin hurriedly wrote:

[I said: I know a hundred energy fluctuations and convergence rune fragments, and I am a little greedy. So, taking a step back, I want ninety-nine. 】

[Rebel leader:...]

[The rebel leader said: Impossible. 】

[I said: Just make it ninety-eight. 】

[The rebel leader fell silent. 】

[After a while, the rebel leader said: If you want the energy fluctuations to converge with the rune fragments, you need to do something for me. 】

Zhao Chuanxin sneered and wrote:

[I said: Even if I help you with things, I don’t dare to ask for 200 energy fluctuations and convergence rune fragments. I’d better ask for a hundred. 】

[Rebel leader:...]

[The rebel leader raised his voice and said: When we dismantle the True Vision Crystal in the city, the Desert Emperor will cause the True Vision Crystal to explode, causing us huge trouble. I heard you have a way to dismantle it, and I need your help with it. If you can do it, I will give you two energy fluctuations and convergence rune fragments. An energy fluctuation and convergence rune fragment can only control one form of energy, and its direction is uncertain. It is useless to give you more. 】

The rebel leader mastered the energy fluctuation and convergence rune. Theoretically speaking, as long as the materials were sufficient, even a hundred rune fragments would not be a problem.

The problem is that he is worried that too many energy fluctuations and convergence rune fragments will flow out, which will create a strong enemy for him.

For example, in the hands of the Desert Emperor, if the Desert Emperor can release a light blade with huge energy at a very small cost, some less powerful gods, such as the God of Spiritual Tribulation, may not be able to match it.

Zhao Chuanxin actually only wanted one, but he always followed the principle of "three benefits from speaking".

Hearing that the other party relented and was willing to give two coins, I felt happy.

After all, I still made money.

They were unable to dismantle the True Sight Crystal, but Zhao Chuanxin was able to capture it.

He wrote:

[I said: Okay, I will dismantle it right away. 】

[I used Madson to shoot at the True Vision Crystals that were entangled with vines from a distance. 】

[With the sound of gunshots, the true vision crystals were shattered one after another. 】

[Even if it explodes, it won’t be able to affect me because of the distance. 】

[The rebels in the city cheered. These poor people have been tortured by the true seeing crystals that can be seen everywhere and are terrified. 】

[And in the north of the city, there was a commotion where the Desert Emperor was entrenched. 】

[The Desert Emperor noticed that his eyeliner was being destroyed. 】

[When I dismantled a third of it, the remaining True Vision Crystals exploded one after another. The Desert Emperor gave up on these True Seeing Crystals and simply blew himself up. 】

[Many houses in the city were damaged by the shock wave, and many residents were affected and suffered casualties. Therefore, the residents in the city hated the Desert Emperor. 】

[The self-destruction of the True Vision Crystal saved me some energy. The work that originally took two days to complete was quickly completed with the assistance of the Desert Emperor. I'm going to the palace to resume my life. 】

[After the rebel leader gave me two energy fluctuation and convergence runes, he said to me: Fearless Vanguard, your ability exceeds my expectations. Next, we must completely eliminate the power of the Desert Emperor. If you are willing to contribute to the early restoration of peace in Rune City, I will grant you a noble title and divide a fiefdom for you after the event is completed. 】

Hey... Zhao Chuanxin didn't expect such a good thing.

The desert emperor's emaciated camel was bigger than a horse, and it was not easy for the rebel leader to occupy Rune City.

Zhao Chuanxin thought for a while, his eyes lit up, and he wrote:

[I said: What if I have a way to drive away the Desert Emperor? 】

[The rebel leader frowned and thought. He seemed a little worried that I would set a trap in this transaction like the underground master. 】

[He discussed with the priestess of Hongdao in a low voice, then nodded to me and said: That’s it. 】

[I said: Then I will go to the north of the city. 】

[Arrived in the north of the city, outside the desert emperor's sphere of influence. 】

[I shouted to the puppet soldier at the door: I want to see the Desert Emperor. 】

[Soon, a soldier came out and said to me: His Majesty the Emperor agrees to see you. 】

[I am not worried about safety issues. The Desert Emperor has been seriously injured. I have the Ladder, the Old Sacred Altar, the Misty Traveler, and the Desert Root. No one here can stop me. 】

【I met the Desert Emperor. 】

[The outer surface of the Desert Emperor's puppet body has been repaired, but I know that without the third-level and ninth-level craftsmen, the internal injuries of the Desert Emperor cannot be healed. 】

[The Desert Emperor asked me: I thought I would be defeated by the ruler of the Haishi Void Realm, and I would be defeated by the Lord of the Brilliant Oasis, but I never thought I would be defeated because of you. 】

Zhao Chuanxin smiled slightly and wrote:

[I said: Now that all the informants in your city have been destroyed, the treasure house and the palace have been taken away, and all the nobles are alienated, you have no chance of making a comeback. 】

[The Desert Emperor said: Yes, as long as you stand in the same camp as me or return the old sacred altar to me, then I still have a chance. 】

[I said: It is impossible to return the old sacred altar to you. If I stand on the same side as you, once I win, you will draw your sword against me in the blink of an eye. 】

[The Desert Emperor sneered: Do you think that if you help the rebels, the rebel leader will tolerate you? Dauntless Vanguard, you are too dangerous and should not appear in the Cursed Desert. If I guess correctly, the rebel leader must promise to give you a noble title and divide you a fiefdom, right? 】

Zhao Chuanxin raised his eyebrows and felt something bad.

really.

[The Desert Emperor also said: The leader of the rebels must use the method of winnowing to keep you away from Rune City to consolidate his rule. Therefore, your fiefdom will not be in Rune City, and the rebel leader will definitely control you far away. If it were me, I would set up my fiefdom in a barren land on the border. 】

[I remained silent. 】

[The Desert Emperor laughs: Fearless Pioneer, I know you are here to persuade me to leave Rune City, because you are not confident that you can completely destroy me. Even if you can, you will have to pay a heavy price. In this case, I will help you. When you leave here, I will leave Rune City with my army of puppets. Sooner or later, I will take back what is mine. 】

[When I left the north of the city, the Desert Emperor left Rune City surrounded by an army of puppets. The rebels followed from a distance and did not dare to engage in battle. 】

[Back at the palace, the rebel leader was full of praise: Fearless Pioneer, the gods praise you, you will not disappoint. I will fulfill my promise, give you a title of nobility, and give you a fiefdom. 】

[Just as the Desert Emperor thought, the fiefdom given to me by the rebel leader is located on the border between the City of Runes and the Brilliant Oasis. It is a barren land and is infested with sand bandits who do not obey the king's rule. 】

[The leader of the rebels asked me to set off immediately, but I could only bring with me the residents who are willing to follow me and leave as subjects of the territory. 】

[Only a few old, weak, sick and disabled homeless people and beggars in the slums were willing to follow me out. 】

Does this count as stealing the chicken but losing the rice?

Zhao Chuanxin thought about it and still didn't intend to fall out.

The Fearless Pioneer is equivalent to the support in the middle of the scale. When one side loses weight, no matter how you move the support point, it cannot change its tendency to overturn.

But he won't just leave.

He wrote:

[I avoided the public gaze, stepped on the ladder and climbed to the outside of a noble tower, inserted the No. 6 copper eye in a hidden place, and overlooked the southern city. 】

[I took the people who were willing to follow me, my brothers, sisters, craftsmen and Dudu, and headed towards the setting sun. 】

Zhao Chuanxin closed the "Old God Code".

He reviewed the situation, and then he suddenly realized: The Desert Emperor must first settle down the enemy, and as long as they attack him, the rebels will launch an attack. As long as he participates and becomes the key to changing the situation of the war, both sides will be afraid of him. Therefore, leaving Rune City was an inevitable outcome from the beginning.

That being the case, there's nothing to slap on the thigh.

Just go.

Zhao Chuanxin bared his teeth: The leader of the stubborn rebels will make you proud.

He could imagine that, with the Desert Emperor's lessons learned, the new Rune City would definitely not allow the existence of true seeing crystals.

The rebel leaders also did not have the desert emperor's means of manipulating puppet soldiers.

Then he has the means to haunt Rune City without anyone noticing, and the matter is not over yet.

After refreshing, Zhao Chuanxin did not sleep, got up, put on his clothes, and flashed to Lubin Mansion's house.

Coming out of the bedroom to the living room, I saw Rebecca Levi lighting a lamp and boiling oil to deal with official documents.

She wears low-power gold-rimmed glasses, and her fair and beautiful face is full of seriousness. She was wearing a slightly loose nightgown, and her slender waist and plump hips and breasts made people unable to take their eyes away.

To ward off the cold, she wore high black cashmere socks on her legs.

Zhao Chuanxin was stunned: I'm sorry, isn't this the girl with black stockings and glasses?

But when she saw Zhao Chuanxin, Rebecca Levi immediately dropped the Parker fountain pen that Zhao Chuanxin sent and got entangled with him.

What a good guy, he acts cold and aloof in the government office during the day, but when he comes home he is as enthusiastic as fire and ice.

Zhao Chuanxin coughed dryly: "Madam, please be more respectful. This is not good."

Rebecca Levi glanced at Tang Qunying's bedroom, and when she found no one there, she said calmly: "I obviously respect it, and that's good."

Zhao Chuanxin took a breath.

If it hadn't happened before, Lao Zhao would never have imagined that this honest and dull woman would never be satisfied with certain things, and even become crazy.

"I still have to build a noodle shop for Doubao."

"It doesn't matter. I can use the money to subsidize Doubao so that he can run one less business. It doesn't matter."

"You are a woman who is really... unscrupulous. You must know that human energy is limited."

"It doesn't matter. There's only half a bottle of Coke left. I can squeeze out some more foam. When the rouge is used up and the Chashan flowers bloom, people's energy can be restored."

"hiss……"

Zhao Chuanxin feels that this time should be accompanied by BMG: We are all living hard...

He walked all the way back to the bedroom, and when the weather calmed down, he took the copper eye with him and inserted it on the eaves outside the door.

You can't go home directly from now on, you must not get caught.

Zhao Chuanxin ran outside the official goods bureau and found Yao Bing lingering next to the ice slide.

"Why haven't you gone home yet?"

"Master, you're here, I'm waiting for you to open a noodle shop together." Yao Bing sniffed and said, the earlobe of the half-missed ear turned red from the cold.

Zhao Chuanxin sat on the ice slide, lit a cigarette, and asked him: "Have you gone to Bayar Bor's place to study and read recently?"

When Yao Bing heard this, he said, "Well, Master, I'm afraid of the dark."

"What the hell? Are you afraid of the dark?" Zhao Chuanxin was confused: "What does being afraid of the dark have to do with your reading and literacy?"

Yao Bing said with a smile: "I'm afraid of the dark. I get scared when I see the blackboard."

"Blank!" Zhao Chuanxin said angrily: "I think you guys are in need of peeling. After this period of busy work is over, I will ask you to check the progress of your studies, and think about it. Now go home. , the noodle shop will be built tomorrow.”

Yao Bing was afraid of asking him about his studies again, so he ran home with his friends.

After they left, Zhao Chuanxin released the puppet slaves and digging puppets, dug holes to erect pillars, put up roof frames, and nailed boards.

The black puppet craftsmen are responsible for planting nails, pegs, hammers and other tools, and handing them to Zhao Chuanxin and the puppet slaves.

This place has become an assembly line construction site, and the progress is more than twice as fast as when Zhao Chuanxin worked alone!

After working very late, Zhao Chuanxin went back to sleep with Rebecca Levi in ​​his arms.

The next day, when Yao Bing came with his friends, he found a cabin next to the ice slide.

The floor is made of rock-decorated floor tiles. In fact, there are only gaps on the top, and the bottom is integrated.

There are brand new tables, chairs and benches inside, as well as a new stove, iron plate and stove.

Small but complete.

This small wooden house rose from the ground overnight, shocking a group of snot-nosed children.

"Doubao, was this built by the prefect?"

"Yes, my master came last night."

"How?"

"This... we will wait until my master comes."

Zhao Chuanxin was very tired and didn't get up until three o'clock in the morning.

He was a little depressed. He was so strong that even he was afraid of himself, but he still wanted to coward Rebecca Levi, a foreign woman. It was unreasonable!

Isn't she just a little taller? Aren’t you just more energetic? Isn't it just a bit warped? Isn't it just that you have enough strength? Isn't it just that the rhythm is stronger?

Nothing, really.

I looked at the calendar on my bedside and saw that it would be Christmas in the West soon.

There are many Russians in Lubin Mansion. Since we cannot kill them all, we must unite them and stabilize their hearts.

Zhao Chuanxin plans to create some programs to enrich and liven up Christmas.

Where there are snot babies, there is bound to be excitement, and we have to start with the snot babies.
