Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

Sally is a very strong woman.

As a saint of the Calamity Raven Church, she has had a strong personality since she was a child.

The number of times she had suffered setbacks since she was a child was almost handful.

This experience not only gave her strong self-confidence, but also made her have extremely high demands on herself.

Riding on the prairie horse, she reflected on the reasons for the failure of this mission along the way.

There are still three saint elders who are missing, and Safuri doesn't care about them at all.

As for the church warriors of an apostolic group, they are nothing to the Calamity Raven Church.

In this operation, the most critical figure on the church's side was Safuri herself.

Next are the three saints and elders of the church.

That night, she did not hesitate to consume the power of faith gathered in the Raven Tower to launch the Raven Ceremony to fight the crusade. Logically speaking, the three saint elders in the Boneyard should also be able to sense that something was wrong. .

If the three elders had seen the Raven Ceremony, they would have understood that the war in Odo Village had reached a fever pitch.

Even if people are not sent back immediately, the excavation progress of the bone burial ground should be accelerated.

But until the end of the battle, there was no movement at the Bone Burial Ground, and not even a message was sent back.

Judging from the current situation, the three saints elders are probably in danger.

The battle that night was fierce, and both sides were completely red-blooded.

Judging from the number of people participating in the crusade, Safuri was sure that the other party had mobilized everyone.

Logically speaking, there is no way to separate the manpower from attacking the Boneyard and Odo Village at the same time.

Unless a third party takes action!

Safuri was riding on a prairie horse, her eyes slightly narrowed, and she carefully recalled the details of the previous battle.

In tracing back to the source, she seemed to have caught some clues.

"I remembered!"

"That was the explosion at that time!"

Safuri opened her eyes suddenly and remembered a situation.

At that time, the crusade was about to reach the foot of the tower.

Her raven ritual can no longer be maintained.

Three loud explosions were faintly heard from the direction of the Bone Burial Ground.

It’s just that the scene at that time was too chaotic and Safuri had no time to think.

Looking back now, it seems that a third party took advantage of the fierce battle between the crusade and the church in Odo Village to sneak attack on the Bone Burial Ground!

Thinking of this, a chubby face appeared in Safuri's mind.

The man who pretended to be captured and sneaked into the village to steal thousands of mithril.

Before the crusade army suddenly changed its strategy and launched a full-scale attack, Safuri saw that damn little fat man among the crusade army through the raven's perspective.

He also ordered the Dragonborn Ranger to shoot the peeping raven he controlled.

The most important thing was that she remembered that she had sensed the devil's aura on that little fat man.

Then the most critical motive is there. What the other party is plotting is nothing else, but the devil's soul!

That's why there was no response from the Boneyard.

Because that damn little fat man must have taken advantage of the battle between the Crusade Army and the Church in Odo Village to sneak attack on the Bone Burial Ground.

Safuli figured everything out, and the doubts in her heart were suddenly cleared.

Her face was red, she gritted her teeth and clenched her fists.

The failure of this operation was definitely the fault of that damn little fat man.

Compared with the crusade, Safuli hated the fat man behind the scenes even more.

After all, the crusade army won the battle head-on with its own skills.

But that little fat man was completely despicable, shameless and nasty!

"Damn it, when we get back to Jackdaw Valley, we must have people from the Dark Crow Apostles do a thorough investigation."

"But that guy is most likely disguising his face."

"We have to start with the power of the devil..."

"Using the power of the devil can easily reveal your flaws."

"This revenge must be avenged!"

Safuri was filled with hatred. After she figured out the truth, the fire of revenge in her heart burned brightly!

In this area, she will definitely come back soon!

…

Two hours later.

More than a hundred kilometers east of the village of Citano.

A big wild boar carrying two people was running wildly on the road.

Beside it was a muscular sentinel panther, carrying a hot-figured woman.

Behind him was a group of Immortal Lancers, arranged in a cone shape, following the big wild boar.

This group of people was none other than Zong Shen and the others who were heading towards Bosbon.

The speed of the big wild boar is not slow, only slightly lower than the Andalusian war horse's speed value by 1 point at full speed.

But it is much faster than the prairie horse. It can run at a speed of 80 to 90 kilometers per hour when carrying two people on its back.

Along the way, Zong Shen encountered two or three groups of traveling merchants' carriages, as well as some villagers riding in bullock carts.

After running at full strength for two hours, Zong Shen could feel Bajie's breathing getting faster and faster under his crotch, and his heartbeat getting faster and faster.

Obviously, Bajie needs to rest.

Along the way, Zong Shen passed two villages, both near this dirt road.

These two villages are not as large as Citano Village, and are only slightly larger than Odo Village.

"How far is the nearest village ahead from us?"

Zong Shen asked the guide in his mind.

If the distance is close, then rush to the nearest village to rest.

If the distance is too long, rest nearby in an open space on the roadside.

Anyway, he carried a lot of food and water with him.

(13 kilometers ahead, Oka Village next to the Lurlu River)

Zong Shen glanced at the golden subtitles and knew what was going on.

13 kilometers is not that far, if you keep going at Bajie's speed, you can get there in another ** minutes.

"Bajie, hold on a little longer."

"When we get to the village ahead, I'll buy you a big apple!"

Zong Shen touched Bajie's head and said encouragingly.

"Huchi..."

"Hum hum…"

Bajie panted heavily and hummed a few times, not sure whether he was agreeing or venting his dissatisfaction.

But in the end there was no strike, and that was enough.

It is a majestic blood-toothed wild boar that should have dominated the mountains and forests, but now Zong Shen regards it as a long-distance vehicle!

There was nothing that could be done about it. The only mount Zong Shen had available now was Bajie.

Although the goblin airship is also a long-distance means of transportation, its speed is actually not very fast. Its speed of 80 kilometers per hour is only about the same as Bajie.

The most important thing is that this thing also consumes magic energy.

It takes 5 points per second, and a 10-hour journey requires 180,000 points of mana!

Even including the 30% reduction in energy consumption due to skill effects, it still requires 126,000 points of mana.

It is equivalent to 1,260 primary magic crystals, and they have no cargo to carry, so just carrying people is too luxurious.

If this expenditure was used to buy apples for Bajie, he could buy hundreds of baskets.

Moreover, the time spent on the road for both is actually about the same.

Taking into account the rest time, Bajie would arrive in twelve or three hours at most.

So far, according to the tips in the guide notes, they are still 497 kilometers away from Bospan.

Calculated, the distance from Citano Village to Bospan is approximately 687 kilometers.

Daozongshen's territory in Xitano Village is still more than 40 kilometers away, which is more than 700 kilometers away.

This distance is actually somewhat beyond concept for Zong Shen.

After all, on earth, a distance of more than 700 kilometers can basically pass through most provinces and regions except Xinjiang Province.

But in this world, it's just the distance from a village to a state city.

Moreover, the traffic conditions were also different. Riding a big wild boar like a small truck on the compacted dirt road was something he could never dream of doing before.

Bajie finished the 13-kilometer distance in only seven or eight minutes.

In order to rest as soon as possible, Bajie exploded into a small universe.

Extraordinary performance and arrived at Oka Village one minute earlier than expected.

This is a medium-sized village, which looks larger than Odo Village.

Next to the village is a large river with a width of two to three hundred meters.

This big river flows from north to south, and the current is very fast.

Just a hundred or two hundred meters away from Oka Village, there is a wooden bridge made of thick logs by the river.

This wooden bridge is a flat bridge, with a pier standing in the river every ten meters or so.

The main body of these bridge piers is still logs, with a rough metal cage around the outside, and the middle is filled with large and small stones.

There is a gentle slope on both sides, which can allow horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts to pass.

It should be a self-made bridge in this village.

Zong Shen rode Bajie to the open space outside the village and stopped here.

Their arrival instantly attracted the attention of everyone around them.

Oka Village, like Citano Village, also has many lords selling things that the lords can sell, such as furs, animal bones, dried meat, and whiteboard weapons, in exchange for dinars to purchase daily necessities.

There are also pastures raising prairie cattle outside Oka Village, but the scale is not as large as that of Citano Village.

But just beside the Luerlu River, slightly downstream, there is a large horse farm.

At a glance, there are at least hundreds of Avalon Prairie horses in the racecourse.

"This village is nice. They even have horses."

Zong Shen took a look at the situation in Oka Village and then jumped off Bajie.

Vereesa had already jumped to the ground when Bajie stopped.

Currently stretching their muscles, she and Luna both put on hoods to cover their signature pointed ears.

At the same time, he also put on a black veil, covering most of his face, only revealing a pair of eyes.

There is no way, the elves are too rare in the current human kingdom.

Not to mention such a small village, it is rare even in giant cities.

Although Zong Shen was not afraid of trouble, he still asked Vereesa and Luna to briefly cover it up to avoid trouble.

After all, Zong Shen had promised them before.

After the crypt challenge is over, take them to Bangcheng together.

After Zong Shen and Veresa got off the pig's back, Bajie lay on the ground panting.

The Immortal Lancers also got off their horses and moved their bodies.

As for Zong Shen, he walked towards the village, Vereesa and Luna following him on the left and right.

This place has left their original area.

None of the lords knew Zong Shen, so they could only look at him secretly from a distance.

If lords want to explore each other, they need to be close to a certain distance.

Nowadays, the lords are all very knowledgeable, even most people can guess that he is a lord.

But no one dared to come forward to check or strike up a conversation.

The village of Oka is smaller than the village of Citano, and there is no militia guarding the entrance to the village.

Zong Shen and the others walked into the village, and more than ten minutes later, a villager came out carrying two baskets of apples, one basket of eggs, and three bundles of fodder.

All these things were placed in front of Bajie and the war horses.

Running at full speed, their hunger and satiety levels are depleted faster than usual.

Only by eating and drinking enough can you have the strength to continue trekking.

While the mounts were eating, Zong Shen went to the racecourse for a walk.

I asked about the price of prairie horses.

The prairie horses here are also divided into several grades.

The most common adult steppe horse costs 500 continental dinars.

It is 200 dinars more expensive than the steppe cattle.

A stronger steppe horse will cost 650 mainland dinars.

There is also a hybrid dragon-scaled prairie horse that costs 1,000 mainland general dinars.

This kind of dragon-scaled prairie horse is a hybrid of dragon-scaled horse and prairie horse, and is taller than ordinary prairie horses.

There are also sparse scales distributed on both sides of the neck.

The overall endurance, speed, and gravity are stronger than those of ordinary prairie horses.

After Zong Shen learned about it, he figured out in his mind that it was only over two hundred kilometers away from the territory. If he needed it later, he could come to Oka Village to buy horses.

In addition to horses, the village also sells a lot of fish because it is backed by the Luerlu River.

Various kinds of dried fish, including many large species of freshwater fish.

The big one can be tens of centimeters long, and the small one can be as long as an arm.

After all being simply pickled, they were dried on bamboo poles.

Among them, Zong Shen also saw some strange things...

There are fish-men-like beings with webbed limbs and tails, and amphibian-like heads, about one meter in length.

It is also disemboweled, salted and dried like other dried fish.

This made Zong Shen feel very strange. There was no doubt that this kind of humanoid amphibious creature was also one of the villagers' luxurious lunches.

Zong Shen was observing Oka Village while waiting for Bajie and the others to finish resting.

He didn't want to stay in the village longer, after all, time was precious.

It's already past 11 o'clock in the morning, less than half an hour before noon.

After noon today, there are only 24 hours until the rules of the new challenge are announced, and only 48 hours until the challenge starts.

So he had to hurry up so that he could get back to the territory before the challenge officially started.

Just when Zong Shen and the others were idle and bored, a leisurely music sound accompanied by the crisp sound of horse hooves came from the side.

Zong Shen turned his head and saw a young man wearing a red jacket, a yellow hood, and a jumpsuit riding a white prairie horse walking towards them.

The young man had a faint smile on his face and held a stringed instrument similar to a violin in his left hand.

He is holding the bow in his right hand and is playing seriously. \u003c/div\u003e
