Lord of the Abyss 2

A mind flayer's city is like an inaccessible pocket, devouring the wealth within its sphere of influence.The power of mind corruption makes them unscrupulous, controlling or mutilating all creatures who dare to disobey them, but are not strong or intelligent enough.They are so notorious that even plane merchants who only recognize money but not people rarely do business with them.

It is said that mind flayers have a deep connection to something more powerful and evil...

snort!When Luo Ling heard this introduction, he sneered.Stronger and more evil, they are nothing more than great demons, at most they are demon lords, and they will never be demon lords, otherwise this family would have been promoted to interrogation consultants for the demon army fighting in all directions. Their own wisdom , the control of living things and that unique skill are indeed quite suitable for this kind of work.

In any case, the treasures and wealth owned by mind flayers, who do not take collecting treasures as a hobby, are definitely equivalent to those of dragon clans. When the gate of the underground treasure house is opened, gold coins and precious stones will flow out backwards, requiring a big shovel to dig Only by making a road can we get to the more valuable treasury inside.

In fact, the wealth of the Apani mind flayer can be fully reflected from the average mithril content of 400 grams.This rare magical metal, worth ten times its own weight in gold, is used by mind flayers to use this metal, which is stronger than steel, light as a feather (the dwarves are bragging, it is actually half the weight of ordinary iron metal), and beautiful as silver. But items with never fading luster can be used as gold and silver ornaments to show their own strength, wealth and increase magic power.Of course, the battlefield cleaning team led by Zog would not let this go. They removed the corpses of every mind flayer, broke into every den of mind flayers, and ransacked everything of value.

However, gold, silver, jewelry, and rare materials are by no means the most valuable wealth in the hands of mind flayers.The most valuable treasure is the salt of Apani.

The mind flayers control Apani, as if they are choking the lifeblood of this dark region. Except for a few small places that can produce some unrefined mountain salt, the underground residents can only go deeper and more dangerous. Try your luck in the Underdark.The dark elves are some exceptions. They can trade for some necessities, including salt.

There is everything in the Underdark, but you may not be able to get it, so it is reasonable for Rufa to value the Godhead of Underdark Trade.

"The salt of Apani is the wealth accumulated over thousands of years together with the salt lakes of the Earth Sea. The mind flayers guard it for me, and now it is mine." After completing the collection of the magic coral species, Luo Ling said this to his followers.

"Yes, master. The harvest of the farmland and the shutdown of several projects in the factory have left a lot of labor idle, and they can complete this glorious work." As Luo Ling continued to create brilliant victories, so did the servants' humility and awe. It is increasing day by day, especially for a person like Darren who has some knowledge in his head. He knows very well that the Apani mind flayer is simply a giant evil in the dark area within a radius of [-] kilometers, but in Luo Ling's hands, it disappeared in a blink of an eye. None of them stayed.Such strength is no longer a height that ordinary people can reach, but must be looked up to.

"Master, my subject feels that the great technology you bestowed can be applied to refining salt." Eska would never give up on this performance. Holding a pinch of salt in his hand, he said to Luo Ling: "Master, You see, the highly condensed and shining salt crystals are naturally condensed and pure things that are extremely valuable in themselves. If they are screened out, they will be used far beyond food. And these ordinary salt grains can be condensed through refining. The value of artificial salt crystals is slightly lower than that of natural salt crystals, but it is also widely used and convenient for storage. The residue is extracted, then filtered and refined, and important mineral elements are added to concentrate, which can become top-grade table salt. The residue under the filter , mixed with a small amount of salt, and slightly processed, its quality is better than unprocessed products from mountain rocks."

Luo Ling glanced at Iska. He remembered the earth before the end of the world. When talking about its cost, at first it was how many fake things were mixed in a bucket, and later it became how many real things were in a bucket. I am deeply impressed by the word 'black heart', this Eska is very talented in this area.

"I'll leave it to you to take full responsibility for this matter." Luo Ling said to Darren, "Mobilize people to cooperate with his work. Although Apani has very few visitors, it's not like there are no visitors." Luo Ling said. Pointing to the wrist.

Both Darren and Iska understood the meaning of the gesture now.time!Not to mention that they have no sense of time, even those who do not have a strong sense of time cannot take on important responsibilities under Luo Ling.Time and efficiency are definitely the characteristics of Luo Lingji's system team.

"I'm here to start with the ugly words. Your food and clothing expenses are the best in the Underdark, and your working hours are the least in the Underdark. But if the work is not efficient, I will banish him forever for the master. If you want to re-appreciate the life of struggling on the death line, just try to be lazy. Okay, work!" This is what the senior executives said to the middle-level backbones, and the middle-level backbones also said the same to the technicians below. Rough labor, they use punishment tools to speak, the newly invented electrode tube is easy to use and carry, with front lighting, and electro-acupuncture on the back.

Over time, ranks inevitably emerged among Luo Ling's servants.To become a master, you don't need to be born in a noble family or how rich you are, but only by your contribution and ability.Moreover, the mobilization slogan is obviously changing. In the past, what kind of torture would be suffered if you don’t work hard. Now, throwing someone out of the team is the best torture. The most painful thing in life is not being poor, but being rich and then returning enjoy poverty.This argument is more applicable to Luo Ling's servants now.

Simple rock and iron screening machines, agglomerators, and mixing buckets were manufactured one by one. Eska and the other dwarves jumped up and down, talking foul words.In terms of calmness, they are not as good as the stone hammer dwarves, and in terms of the almost crazy drive, the stone hammer dwarves are not as good as them.

At this time, Gregory smiled flatteringly at Luo Ling: "Master, look at the map taken and drawn by your faithful servant, is it still usable?"

Luo Ling has to say that Gregory's talent in matters related to the earth is really quite high. The photography is so aura that it can be used as the material of a landscape film.

"Go tell Orbuk and Fatty that your subordinates will get the best supplies and a hearty meal." Luo Ling said and raised a finger, "There is no such thing as Apani. Second-rate."

"It's master, praise your master, thank you master..." Gregory was both happy and panicked, and praised Luo Ling incoherently, but was kicked out by Luo Ling, rubbing his pain all the way away Going to go, Gregory felt much, much more at ease in his heart.

The Spaniards drove a boat to snatch a glorious era, and the British also snatched the title of an empire on which the sun never sets. When it was the turn of the United States, the gang of groceries raised the style of the Europeans to a new height. They rob the pockets of people all over the world.Anyway, Luo Ling knew long ago that robbing is the number one way to get rich.However, the detailed statistics of the treasures handed over by his followers still made him feel like he was floating on a cloud. Not to mention how many gold, silver and jewels there were, the stardust alone weighed more than 32 kilograms.

Luo Ling suddenly discovered that he might have been a little petty in the past, and it was reasonable for the company alliance and the devil to look down on him for the little resources and population.Compared with the property obtained this time, those before are just floating clouds, so light that they can be ignored.

When Luo Ling found out that he had not yet reached the center of the earth, he overfulfilled the previous stardust goal, but it turned out that there were many problems with the magic crystal, and it was difficult to make a fortune.However, it is very true to say that there is food and no panic. With so much stardust in his hand, Luo Ling is not in a hurry to expand his space throughput.

Like stardust, mithril, and stunt gems, Luo Ling carried all of these precious materials by himself, and handed them over to Darren and the others, in case something went wrong and the loss was too great.Together with the unfinished core crystals of all levels, as well as the cultural relic value and research value magic vessels, gold and silver objects selected by Luo Ling, this batch of materials took up a whole 500 cubic meters of space in a wrist wheel.

The rest of the large amount of precious metals were all smelted and recast under Luo Ling's order.It has always been Luo Ling's principle to split raw material storage and assemble its own standard products.High-purity gold ingots marked with Yin-Yang fish marks are melted out one by one, each [-] grams, and every fifty ingots are in a box. This box is called a thousand gold (thousand catties). These are the future development of the population. cornerstone of the economy.

Although aggression and plunder are the main theme of this world, Luo Ling believes that this situation will not last forever.Regardless of whether it is the rule of darkness or the rule of light, unity will eventually return after chaos. When a sufficiently powerful force sets the tone, other forces can only actively or passively act in accordance with this tone. Luo Ling is confident in creating a stable financial system , From casting your own currency to taking tokens, having these real money will be the guarantee for the rapid implementation and promotion of this plan.

Luo Ling personally made three space capsules that can be connected or disassembled, each with a space of 1 cubic meters, called Wanbao Box.High-value resources and property are all collected in it.At Luo Ling's request, this ten thousand treasure chest was embedded in an exquisite mechanism box of crystal steel, and this mechanism box was part of three crystal steel statues, all of which were female statues, holding up the sun, The moon, the stars, and a special showroom were set up, and specialized crystal puppets were responsible for recording the incoming and outgoing water, and the original Qiongyu Central Bank was born in this way.

Luo Ling informed No. 40 of Traasin that Aktina arrived with a 300-strong Black Elf combat brigade.Today is six days after Luo Ling's original promise, and Aktina is here to receive Traasin.

The army of the black elves, acting as the guard of honor in the magical world, definitely lives up to its reputation, with handsome men and women, well-proportioned flesh and blood, a vigorous figure like a cheetah, and top-notch armor and armor.Before Luo Ling saw that the clothes of the Nisar mixed race on the surface already had the gloomy and gorgeous feeling of "Underworld Prequel", but compared with the black elves, that kind of gorgeousness can only be called appearance. The armor and weapons of these black elves , from the perspective of style and exquisiteness, each piece can get millions of dollars in Sotheby's auction.That kind of extravagance is overwhelming, making people confused.

In terms of quality, this black elf army should be worthy of their armor and weapons. It is well-ordered, orders are prohibited, it moves quickly and silently, and flows smoothly. Moreover, the black elf's cloak is quite elegant, as light as gauze, but It was as deep as night, coupled with the shining silver armor with magic light, each of the black elves had a heroic appearance as a foil.

Luo Ling suddenly thought of Xin'dorei in WoW.Pulling the corners of his mouth, he smiled silently, and he saw the pride hidden in Aktina's plain expression.He was amused by the femininity's parting act like a little girl showing off her favorite toys, and he had to admit that people were different, and gods were different.When you remind yourself that no one is a fool, you must also pay attention to that sometimes the other party is really clumsy, and if you are too coincidental, you will fall into the hands of such clumsiness.This is probably shit luck.Like this time, Luo Ling couldn't swallow the huge salt mine of Apani by himself, so he threw out 'two pieces of meat' at the end.

One piece is the kind of inferior table salt that Iska mixed. Although it is inferior, it depends on who you compare it with. The salt eaten by ordinary black elves is not much better than this salt. The batch Ling took out was black and thick.

The other is Apani, a salt lake. Although the accumulation of thousands of years has been emptied, the foundation is still very good, and it can continuously produce high-quality salt. And Coral City, if you are willing to put in some effort, it is completely possible to restore its former beauty. , after all, this is the world of magic, resurrecting some lowly creatures is not a big deal.

These two pieces of meat, Apani, look much better, but they require a lot of investment, and you have to wait; and the second-grade table salt is a one-off sale, but the advantage is that it is large in quantity and has no risk of backing. It can be used and quickly transformed into real power.Which option is better depends on the strategic orientation of the needer.

The black elves behind them lined up, 300 people with the majesty of thousands of people.With this as the background, Aktina smiled and watched Luo Ling's servants leaving in a row, tall and short, with only coarse underwear and simple leather clothes on their bodies, and something like a firestick behind their backs... In terms of image and temperament, Luo Ling's servants are indeed far inferior to the black elves.This made Aktina feel better.

"Latecomers, you still have a long way to go. The dwarves in the Underdark are a large population, but they have lost their gods for too long, and you should pay attention, if you want to obtain the priesthood of the Underdark Dwarves, there is another The competitor, Xijiahe, is a false god, but he has more than one hundred thousand followers." Aktina said to Luo Ling in the tone of a senior.

"Thank you for your advice." It seemed that Luo Ling, who was not an ordinary black elf who was well-dressed, gave Aktina face in front of the black elves, satisfying the glory on her face.

At this moment, Zu'ao walked out of the void.Seeing the scene in front of him, Zu'ao smiled and said, "Is there a farewell party? It seems that it is no problem to ask for a few glasses of wine. After drinking the fruit wine of Talasin, the mango wine of the Black Elf, which was regarded as a treasure before, has become It's hard to swallow. It's a sin, a sin."

Aktina glanced at Luo Ling unhappily, then squinted at Zu'ao and said, "I've always been interested in lizard steak, especially after I got the condiment black pepper."

Luo Ling stepped in between the two friends who would bicker when they met, and said, "You two, please, let's sit down and talk about it."

The three of them sat down on the high platform. This time, Luo Ling entertained the two of them as a dinner party. Although the god's greed seemed ridiculous and tasteless, Aktina and Zuao's heart was occupied by a sumptuous meal. Mouth, and eased the smell of gunpowder between each other such a thing really happened.Little gods like Rufa and Raouli can't reach the point where they can eat all the delicacies and taste all the nectar. Although the body structure of the gods is completely different from that of ordinary people, this does not affect They taste food, after all, it is also a kind of enjoyment, which can make the spirit happy and relax.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Luo Ling said: "The advice of the two pioneers last time opened my eyes. I have already planned to go to a remote place to expand the territory and build a foundation. Before I leave, I will offer two Bo Li, I would also like to ask you two to be more accommodating, and when my disciples walk in the area under your rule, give me some convenience."

"It's easy to say! Easy to say!" Raoulli seemed very straightforward, and agreed to the matter with just four words.

Aktina said: "The prescribed taxes will not be exempted."

Luo Ling nodded, "Follow the rules, you should."

Aktina then said, "Tell me about your gift."

After Luo Ling said these two things, Aktina and Zuao who were eating and drinking couldn't help but stop.Compared with Luo Ling's wealth (estimated, I don't know the exact amount), the two were more surprised by Luo Ling's wealth.
