Dharma Ring: Selling dung beetles at the border

After dealing with those ferocious monsters, it was time for the three people who met by chance to part ways.

Neferi carries her luggage:

I'm going to go on, I still have things to do.

I think you're quite free. Wuming said.

I also have a mission, okay? Neferi put her hands on her hips.

Is the mission to play chess? Wuming asked.

Neferi scratched her cheek sheepishly:

That's just to prove myself...A warrior cannot retreat when faced with a challenge! And my adoptive father has said that he wants me to do more intellectual training.

Good excuse. Wuming said.

Neferi was anxious:

It's useless even if I'm anxious. I won't be able to complete my task before the time is up.

What kind of tasks do you have to hold on to? Wuming was confused, and he hesitated, You... are doing tasks in the cafeteria? You don't have to cook until the time is up?

I'm going to the festival! Neferi said.

She suddenly covered her mouth, realizing that she had exposed the mission information again.

As expected, Wuming asked: What festival?

Neferi slumped her shoulders and no longer concealed:

Everyone in Galid is aware of the battle ceremony held to honor Ratan.

For the funeral, we have to choose an auspicious day. Wuming asked, Which day? Day or night?

None of them, Neferi said, It's when the stars appear.

That's night? Wuming asked.

It's different. Neferi shook her head. My adoptive father said that Latarn sealed the stars, so as long as he is alive, the flow of the stars will be blocked. In other words, when the stars start to appear, it means that Latarn's life When we are about to reach the end, it’s time for the festival. The warriors will challenge the strongest demigod and bid him farewell with their own hands.”

Wuming seemed to understand. He raised his eyes and looked at the sky. The sky was still scarlet and had not changed at all.

I guess it wasn't the time when the stars appeared.

Neferi asked Holero:

Uncle, you are also very strong. Do you want to go to the battle festival together? I heard that Latan is the strongest demigod.

Holeilu said: I don't have to. I'll just come to Galid and fulfill my wish.

Don't you like fighting very much? Neferi was curious, Why don't you go? That is the hero closest to the king.

Are you going to witness the twilight of a hero? Hallelu shook his head, Forget it.

He also stood up, turned around and left, waving to the two of them: Lao Lu, I still have something to do, so I'm leaving.

Hallelu left simply and was the first to leave.

Nefeli turned to look at Wuming:

Are you coming? I heard that Mr. Roger is also going to attend.

I'm busy, I have a lot of things to do. Wuming also started to pack his luggage and put it on the back of the fallen star beast.

The Falling Star Beast became extremely useful after being trained by Lao Lu. Its body is composed of crystal-like broken rock, so it can change its body shape to a certain extent.

Falling Star Beast directly creates a saddle on its back, and also creates baskets on both sides of its body that can hold items.

It's so useful.

Wuming stroked the big eyes of Falling Star Beast.

Seeing that Wuming was about to leave, Neferi suddenly looked at the direction in which Holeilu was leaving, then she came close to Wuming and asked quietly:

What is Lao Lu's name?

You don't reveal your name, but you still want to ask someone else's name? Wu Ming was amused, You've learned a lot.

Curious. Neferi said.

Holeilu, that's his name. Wuming said, I'll tell him your name next time too.

Wuming judged that neither Nefeli nor Holelu were bad people, and had no intention of harming each other, so he confidently revealed Lao Lu's name.

On the other hand, Lao Lu didn't seem to care about the name, and he told himself it easily at first.

But the name that neither Lao Lu nor Wuming cared about was like a dull thunder in Nefeli's ears.

Neferi opened her mouth: What's your name?

Holylu. Wuming repeated it again.

Neferi took two steps back in disbelief and suddenly squatted down, covering her head:

Ah...I'm an idiot. That's right. The costumes in the wilderness are so awesome...

Know? Wuming leaned over.

That's the king of our wilderness. Neferi raised her head sadly, I was so rude to him...

It turns out he is the king. Wuming suddenly realized, No wonder, I think Lao Lu has the bearing of a king.

Neferi said: King of the Wilderness, Holylu, Lion King, our leader, the faded one who has the most hope of becoming king...

As Neferi spoke, she suddenly paused.

Her expression was a little flustered.

What happened again? Wuming asked.

He felt that the little girl was worried.

Maybe he really needs to grow his brain.

Neferi said in a low voice:

I told you, I lost the guidance of blessing.

Yes.

The blessing awakened us. When the warriors in the wilderness followed the blessing guidance and crossed the sea of ​​fog to the junction, they were followed by King Holylu. Neferi said, I lost the blessing guidance. As a straggler The person who lost it was King Holylu's team, and it was picked up by my adoptive father later, which made me regain my faith.

Neferi squatted down in distress:

But my adoptive father's ambition is also to be the King of Elden, so he is no longer a rival to King Hallelu.

Are you worried about who to help? Wuming understood.

Neferi nodded:

Although I was abandoned by King Horairu, there was nothing I could do about it. After all, it was me who was abandoned by the blessing, not the king. People in the wilderness admire the king. But my adoptive father is my beacon...

What's there to worry about? After hearing this, Wuming felt that Nefeli's worries were unfounded.

Do you know what to do? Neferi looked at Wuming eagerly, hoping to get an answer.

With your current strength, you are just a little brat, whether it is against Bai Zhi or Lao Lu. Wuming said, Is your support very important?

Neferi was stunned for a moment, and then became furious. She raised her two axes and was about to duel Wuming, letting him see her little strength.

Wuming didn't want to fight Nefeli, so he jumped back a few steps and rolled onto the Falling Star Beast:

You can disobey me, but will you obey Baizhi?

Neferi thought for a moment and nodded:

Of course I am convinced. My adoptive father is very smart and equally powerful.

Then can your opinion affect Baizhi's decision-making?

Neferi shook her head.

That's alright, it means you really don't mean anything to Momochi. Wuming said, From my observation, Old Ruby is stronger than Momochi. These two people are really in conflict, and it's not your turn to intervene. Then what are you struggling with? ?”

Wuming rode the Falling Star Beast and left shaking his head:

Young people today just take themselves too seriously.

Neferi was so filled with hatred that she picked up a stone and threw it towards Wuming.

The stone was stopped by Falling Star Beast's gravity magic and could only fall helplessly.

Wuming waved to Neferi with his back:

If you want to influence them, then improve yourself. When you become stronger, you can naturally interfere in their fights. You don't want to participate in some battle festival to prove yourself and cultivate yourself.

Nefeli glared at Wuming who was drifting away, packed her luggage angrily, and headed straight to the Red Lion City where the battle festival was held.

She was so busy being angry that she didn't notice the panic and hesitation in her heart just now, which was gone now.

==========

When Wuming returned to the mine, Patch had already returned to the mine with a batch of returning bone fragments and was organizing the miners to evacuate the mine.

These miners have their own places to go, and Patch is going to arrange them to the mine tunnels over Moren City.

With their ability to mine using magic, going to the Morn Tunnel is a waste of resources, and they will definitely be able to greatly increase their output.

When Pachi saw Wuming coming back, he threw him a small ball.

What is this? Wuming pinched the small ball and turned it around to observe.

Found it from the mud over there from the Starfall Beast. Patch said, The miner's bell.

It turns out that miners also have bell beads. He lit a fire on the tip of his ring finger and looked at the small bead carefully.

You can take it back and study it. Maybe you can find the secret of the bell bead hunter hunting the businessman. Patch said, Even if you can't find it, since he is after the bell bead, we can't get it with him, so there is no harm in it.

Wuming sighed: The next days will be very busy.

As he said, Wuming started working non-stop as soon as he returned to Airei Church.

Find more miners, find a cure for the rot, and let the new miners learn the magic of the old miners to collect pyroxene crystals.

At the same time, a large amount of runes and pyroxene must be provided to Tops, and ordinary forging stones should be opened for sale to increase the strength of the faded ones as soon as possible.

After finishing his work every day, Wuming would climb up and look into the distance, looking in the direction of Stone City, hoping that Greg's attack would come later.

Stonewell City

Greg stood in the square, inspecting the troops one after another, and was very satisfied.

It's not much, but it's more than enough to wipe out one store.

The most important thing is that after several months, he finally completed the recruitment, which also means that the day Fan Lei promised has arrived, and the Blood Dynasty will no longer hinder him.

Greg looked beside him, and Fan Lei stood aside, inspecting the troops with him.

Greg said: Can I attack now?

Golden King, the time has come. Fan Lei bowed, The Blood Dynasty will wish you a helping hand.

Fan Lei ran in both directions during this period and personally calculated the comparison of the combat power of the two sides.

The nameless new round table is growing much faster than Greg's side, and there are already more than two thousand faded people willing to help the Ai Lei Church.

Wuming accumulated a large amount of dung balls and dew drops as supplies for the Faded warriors.

Fan Lei judged that the time was ripe.

The seeds have been sown and it’s time to harvest the roses.

After receiving Fan Lei's approval, Greg immediately became excited, and with a cruel and terrifying smile, he ordered the dispatch of troops.

Stonewell's grand gate opened, and soldiers filed out. The cavalry opened the way, and the infantry followed. All the teams advanced in an orderly manner, taking heavy steps that made the earth tremble.

Greg got into a luxurious car.

This is a carriage he specially built for this expedition, which can carry his bloated and deformed body.

Greg put many treasures on the carriage, regardless of whether they were harmonious or not, just like the aesthetic of his limbs.

Greg took all the soldiers in the city, even the sons of omen and the giant monster.

Before setting off, a knight commander strongly opposed the dispatch of all troops, hoping that the Sons of Omen and the Giant Demon War Eagle could stay in Storm City.

The knight commander was then killed by Greg.

Behead those who shake the morale of the army! Greg's eyes widened with anger, thinking that he must be like a mighty general.

Before leaving, Greg used the knight commander's corpse as a sacrifice and performed a limb-repairing ceremony.

It can not only enhance one's strength, but also perform a sacrificial sacrifice before marching.

Greg threw the blood of the knight commander on the ground, connected the limbs to his arms, and shouted loudly:

Ancestors, the great King Gefulei, please bear witness to your heart's content!

He wanted to take this opportunity to demonstrate his power, his authority.

He wants to show those who disobey him like Nimgefu what it means to be a golden king.

Let's go! Greg waved his king's ax and shouted loudly while standing on the carriage.

He held the dragon's head high and sprayed out flames to cheer for the mighty team.

War eagles flew and screamed loudly; horns and bells resounded throughout the city of Stonewell.

The expedition team froze.

The soldiers looked at each other.

The sound came not from the accompanying buglers and war eagles, but from behind.

They looked back and saw fire burning from above Stone City.

The golden people who stayed behind in the city stumbled and caught up from behind, shouting loudly:

Enemy attack, enemy attack, direction of Lienia!

The knight captains were shocked and quickly ordered the soldiers to turn around and return to defense.

However, too many soldiers crowded at the city gate, and the original line that opened the way became bloated when they returned to defense.

Many ballistae and artillery pieces that were slowly advancing at the end were blocked in the rear, causing a huge congestion.

In the chaos, Greg's carriage was also trapped in the flow of people. No matter how he shouted, he could not direct others.

When the real crisis came, all officers and soldiers tacitly ignored the Golden King's orders.

Greg swore angrily, swung his axe, and even grabbed a soldier and tore him apart.

But in front of the chaotic city gate, no one still paid attention to him.

Greg saw that on his arm, the knight commander's arm that made up his muscles was twisting with the king's axe.

In the obviously noisy environment, Greg clearly heard the ridicule of the owner of the arm, sharp and clear.

He saw a knight commander in front of him, turned his head and laughed at him.

No! Greg screamed, No one can mock me anymore!

Greg opened the faucet directly.

The dragon flames swept through a large area of ​​soldiers around them. Under the high temperature of the dragon flames, a large number of soldiers screamed and died.

This huge momentum finally attracted the attention of others. Everyone fell silent and looked at Greg with trembling eyes.

I don't know if it's because of fear or anger.

Greg felt the silence, and he understood that the silence was caused by him.

That means no one is ignoring him anymore.

Greg narrowed his eyes in enjoyment.

When he opened his eyes, he saw a knight commander riding towards him.

The faucet on Greg's arm twitched subconsciously, but he regained his composure and stopped breathing fire.

The knight commander came to Greg and reported the situation:

It's Dujuan. Dujuan has counterattacked from Lienia. He has broken through the city wall and is plundering the city.

Cuckoo... is a soldier of Rhea Lucalia, and he actually dared to take advantage of the situation... Greg's eyes were burning, Return to defense!

A large number of crossbow vehicles are blocking the rear. the knight commander said.

Greg raised the dragon's head, and a fireball spurted out, passed through the city gate, and blasted to the rear. The flames engulfed a ballista and several soldiers.

Burn it, Grek said. The ballista is not useful in the city anyway. Return to defense immediately. Those who are slow will be burned to death!

In the Lienia Lake area, Nok was hiding among the branches of a big tree, watching the fire of Stonewell City and listening to the sounds of the Cuckoo Knight and Rhea Lucalia's soldiers burning, killing and looting.

She closed her eyes and rubbed a pendant on her chest.

A black sphere is set in the center of the necklace, just like the inconspicuous dim moon next to the bright full moon in the sky.

On the top of the pendant, two cuckoos close together to form a small hole, which is passed through by the necklace.
