Chapter 504
“Iron Blood Duke” Mors Garcia was stunned.
He thought that it was an underground force that was secretly fighting against the palace in the capital.
Or some mysterious organizations on the Aino Continent.
Or it was a joint force formed by some stronger kingdoms.
Although they could not compare to the Court, it was a good thing for the Dark Tide to have more allies. At least according to the words of the extraordinary in front of them, they had the ambition to find out the truth of the Dark Tide. They wanted to solve the disaster from the root. They were more reliable than the old n.o.bles in the Court who were safe and sound.
Whether it was this extraordinary who fought against the butler and the others by himself, or they had the ability to reach the west of the city, it all showed that this mysterious force was indeed not to be underestimated.
The Dark Tide had erupted for decades. It was not that the west of the city had not allowed the Transcendents to go to the capital to investigate and ask for help. However, there were several Transcendents who left with a mission. In the end, there was no news of them.
The Western Garrison City and the capital are very far apart. There were many dangers along the way. The Iron blood Duke, Mors, is also unclear. Is the Transcendent who asked for help encountering an unstoppable danger on the way, or is he in the capital…
He thought quickly and speculated all kinds of possibilities, but he did not expect that the so-called mysterious force actually came from the Heaven’s Beyond?
What the h.e.l.l?
Are you kidding me?
In the tens of thousands of years of history of the Kingdom of Aino, there had never been a legend about the Heaven’s Beyond. Even the experts recorded in the history books had never heard of anyone flying out of the continent of Aino… After all, there were still countless regions waiting to be explored in the vast continent, the ocean, and countless other regions.
If not for the fact that the strength that Zaber displayed was indeed extraordinary and he had spoken about many things in the capital, he would have thought that this was a mental patient that had come out of nowhere to make fun of him.
Even now, he still had a suspicious look in his eyes.
“Look.” Zaber waved his hand, and a few containers appeared in the open s.p.a.ce within the City Lord Residence.
“What is this?”
“Food, Origin Crystals represent our sincerity. Why don’t you open it and take a look?”
The first container was opened. Inside was a mountain of Origin Crystals. Even though there was an energy barrier separating the crystal walls, the threads that leaked out still left the Transcendents intoxicated.
They were all high-grade goods.
This box contained at least a million units of Origin Crystals!
A few decades ago, it wasn’t difficult for the City Lord Residence to take out this amount of Origin Crystals. But now, they even had to conserve their daily illumination. When they saw this large box of Origin Crystals, their eyes almost turned red.
Sou —
Zaber swept his hand over it, and the container was put away.
The Transcendents were stunned. They understood what this meant. Only then did they suppress their gaze and open the second, third, and fourth container.
Some of them had a box of compressed food, some had vegetables and fruits, and some even had a large box of beast meat!
“You guys couldn’t have slaughtered the beasts that have been raised for decades, right?” The City Lord’s Mansion’s butler, Henry, swallowed his saliva. He was very generous, but… wasn’t it too wasteful?
Living beasts were more valuable, and they might even give birth to little cubs!
Currently, they only had a few low-level beasts in their west city. It was ten years ago that they slaughtered a dying beast to eat meat, right?
As for the strange beast meat in front of him, even though it had been divided into various parts, with his eyes, he could still tell that the ingredients were a powerful beast when it was alive. Moreover, it was not the kind that was about to die of old age. The texture of the skin of a strong beast and an old beast could be seen at a glance.
These few containers were not put away by Zaber. After he nodded in agreement, Butler Henry opened the box with vegetables and fruits.
In terms of value, there weren’t many containers that contained food, vegetables, and fruits. They were far from being comparable to exotic beast meat, or even the entire box of Origin Crystals.
Butler Henry picked up a portion of the vegetables and fruits. After carefully examining them for a while, he turned to look at the Duke of Iron Blood and shook his head.
“Maybe it’s a specialty of some remote area,” Someone else said.
Although that was what they said, they already believed that they knew nothing about the mysterious forces. The other party could completely disguise themselves as a certain kingdom or a certain force in the continent.
After a pause, “Iron Blood Duke” Mors said, “What do you want?”
“First, we will exchange resources. We will use food and source crystals to exchange for the knowledge of your city, rune creation, and so on. Second, we want to understand more information about the capital… It was the same before the end of the world, including your understanding of the Dark Tide. Third, we need to have a base of our own in the city.”
“Food and source crystals are indeed what we need, but if we want to exchange for the knowledge of our city…” Henry frowned.
Cultivation methods, combat skills, spells, and so on were the core of the family’s inheritance. Zaber knew that the City Lord’s Mansion would not simply treat knowledge as a commodity… The n.o.bles of the Aino Continent had their eyes on their own inheritance the most, and they covered it very tightly. Even if the Duke Iron Blood belonged to an open-minded n.o.ble, it could not be avoided.
The future is long.
According to the lord, as long as the price they offered was enough, the one who would take the initiative to ask for an exchange would most likely be the west city.
The simplest of the three conditions was the station.
Although more than half of the city had been turned into a farm for food, it still drew out a piece of land on the scale of a university area.
He was very sincere.
…
“This area used to belong to a n.o.ble in the Western Garrison City. Later, that n.o.ble declined and sold the land to our city lord’s mansion. He originally planned to reclaim some land, but now, it’s yours.”
Butler Henry said.
The area that was given to them was close to the City Lord Residence so that it would be easier to monitor them. If this mysterious force had any plans against the city lord residence, it would be easier to suppress them.
They couldn’t trust them, but they couldn’t refuse the price of food and Origin Crystals.
“Here, my companions are here.”
Xie Yi, Xing Ling, Xing Yue, Xiao Li, and the others rushed over when they saw that Zaber had made her decision.
Butler Henry’s pupils contracted.
They were all experienced Transcendents, and their auras were no weaker than that of Zaber!
If they wanted to cause trouble in the outer city, they would not be able to stop them.
A moment later,
Something that caused Butler Henry’s eyes to widen even more happened. He saw Zaber take out a strange ball. In the next moment, a blue door of light appeared out of thin air. A young man dressed in gorgeous armor walked out of the blue door of light. He waved his hand, and with a rumbling sound, a tall and magnificent building rose up from the ground.
Then,
The young man disappeared again, as if he had never appeared before.
“?”
Butler Henry looked up at the magnificent building. His mouth opened and closed, and thousands of words eventually turned into a silent sigh.
…
Tang Yu only showed a face and waved his sleeve, not taking a trace of the clouds away.
After the territory was built, even if he was in Gehrman City, he would be able to control it from a long distance.
Soon,
Zaber and the others hired many local residents to buy and transport basic wood, stone materials, and so on. They also flattened the abandoned aristocratic residence on the original site of the land and gathered a lot of materials.
Tall buildings rose from the ground.
In less than three seconds, the empty and abandoned area suddenly changed greatly, causing Butler Henry and the others, who had been secretly observing, to be greatly shocked.
City Lord’s Manor,
“Iron Blood Duke” Mors Garcia had just walked out of the cultivation field. His armor, which was condensed by the blood aura, slowly turned into mist and dissipated.
“Did the power called ‘Tree Shade’ really build a forest of buildings in just a few seconds?”
“That’s right.” Henry let out a long sigh of relief. “Moreover, we didn’t see those Transcendents make a move. It was just like how those materials ran over by themselves and a.s.sembled themselves into buildings. At best, they only hired some commoners to transport the materials.”
“What about the others? How is the transaction going?”
Henry finally revealed a look of joy. “The transaction went very smoothly. The Origin Crystals and food provided by those people were far more than we had imagined. With this Origin Crystal, our city protecting formation in the western part of the city can finally be activated. This batch of food can also slightly increase our stock.”
“Especially exotic beast meat.” He paused, “The other party has provided a lot of them. Not only can they provide us with all the Extraordinary food, I feel that we can also provide a portion of them to our elite warriors. With the help of the exotic beast meat, the cultivation speed of the warriors will be even faster.”
“As for what the other party exchanged from us…” Previously, in order to show our sincerity, you asked me to open the second level treasury. There were also some good cultivation methods inside, but the other party did not choose to exchange for those. Instead, he exchanged for many materials. Many rare materials that had been acc.u.mulated for hundreds of years or even hundreds of years had been exchanged by the other party.
“There were also many pieces of equipment in the treasury, but those people gave me the feeling that they weren’t satisfied. On the contrary, several sets of arrays were exchanged by them.”
“What about the station of ‘Tree Shade’? What’s the situation?”
“Uh, they opened up some buildings. There are ‘Trading Hall’, ‘training camp’, ‘Star Restaurant’, and so on. There are all kinds of goods sold in ‘Trading Hall’. In ‘Star Restaurant’, you can enjoy Tree Shade’s well-known food. And ‘training camp’ is a building with all kinds of training facilities. Some of them… some of them are unbelievable.”
