A man in the ark was forced to become a king

Unless now...

"Of course, that's all in the past, and it's not worth showing off."

Lin Lu casually leaned the divine body into a sword against the throne, glanced at the expressions of the two of them, and her expression softened again.

This is exactly the result he wants. The power of the sword transformed from the divine body is astonishing. Now he cannot exert its full power. At best, it can only be used as a special weapon, but it is enough as a deterrent - provided that there are people Just know the goods.

But now it seems that both Wei Yanwu and Kelxi have obviously recognized some of the essence of this thing, which makes it much easier to handle.

Cooperation has always been based on equality between both parties. From a comprehensive perspective, the strength of Dragon Gate and Tower of Babel is undoubtedly much greater than that of the newly born Golden Tree. Therefore, if future cooperation is to be implemented smoothly, appropriate Showing off your muscles is a must.

However, showing off force must also be done in a certain way.

The opening of the Great Blessing is that opportunity. The function of the god's body as a sword is to intimidate. The weapon forged from the god's body may not be the strongest among the weapons in his collection, but it is undoubtedly the most suitable as a deterrent.

So far, it's quite effective.

"Mr. Wei, Miss Kelsey, please come here today. In addition to witnessing, there is one more thing to discuss."

Seeing both of them looking thoughtful, Lin Lu was not in a hurry and said in a leisurely manner: "From today on, Golden Tree will accept commissions from collaborators, including but not limited to material transportation, military support and medical treatment. Services, if you two are interested, some basic technology sharing can also be included in future cooperation."

“I can promote this in-depth cooperation on behalf of Longmen.”

Wei Yanwu agreed to this without much thought. Lin Lu's proposal coincided with his thoughts.

Longmen and the Golden Tree are far apart, and there is no real conflict of interest. If they can use the power of the Golden Tree, then some difficult things can be left to them. All Longmen needs to pay is just some money, and that is exactly The least important thing.

Through cooperation, Longmen can get military support, and Golden Tree can get the resources it wants. Since it is win-win cooperation, why not?

"The Tower of Babel has no objection, and we now have a matter that needs to be entrusted to the Golden Tree."

Kelxi thought for a moment, then nodded and looked at Wei Yanwu, the meaning was self-evident.

Wei Yanwu also knew what was going on. Anyway, his purpose of coming here had been achieved. There were many things going on at Longmen, so there was no need to stay any longer, so he simply said goodbye and left.

After he left, Kelxi was the only outsider present. Lin Lu did not shy away from the others and looked at Kelxi quietly, waiting for her next words.

"Mr. Lin, our Tower of Babel will have a crucial operation in the near future. Due to some accidents, we want to entrust the Golden Tree to provide military support to ensure that the item reaches Kazdaele safely."

"Military support? What level of military support? We don't mind accepting the commission from the Tower of Babel, but the price must be negotiated in advance."

Lin Lu didn't care what Babel wanted to do. He only cared about how much profit he could get from taking this order. As long as there were enough resources in the account, the growth of the golden tree could be further accelerated. That was the most important thing right now.

"I am going to ask you to take action personally. For this purpose, Babel is willing to pay [-] pure source stones. The mission period is ten days."

Kelsey thought about it for a moment, then gritted her teeth and gave a price that made her feel a little sad.

Ten days, five hundred pure source stones, the price is already quite high, even if it hires a large mercenary group, it is more than enough.

The emergence of the divine body-turned-sword made the golden tree's position in her heart skyrocket. Depending on the status, the price would naturally rise.

"Okay, I've accepted this task."

Five hundred pure Origin Stones were accounted for in one escort mission. Such a heroic business was rare. Lin Lu made the decision without even hesitating, with a friendly smile on her face.

He could see that Kelsi had complicated thoughts and didn't know what the purpose was for inviting Golden Tree to take charge of this task, but as long as he gave her money, it didn't matter!

Now that the Great Blessing has begun, he is a little more confident. Let alone a small escort mission, as long as the Tower of Babel really dares to give a sufficient price, even if it is to assassinate the regent, It's not that it can't be considered.

As for what the Tower of Babel wants to plan, it's up to them to think about it. When the golden tree truly grows up, all conspiracies and tricks will be vulnerable to absolute strength!

Chapter 86 Wilderness, Girl, Potato

The price given by the Tower of Babel was very high, but the requirements were very low. The final result of the negotiation was that this task was handed over to Lin Lu alone.

In fact, for this rare and high price, Lin Lu didn't mind taking Mostema and Fiametta with him, which would also reduce many possible accidents.

But Kelsey didn't seem to want them to participate in the mission. There were no other available manpower at the Golden Tree, so Lin Lu had no choice but to go alone - taking W with her by the way.

Melina and Lani, who had woken up, took the soul-summoning bell and stayed under the golden tree with Mostima and the others to make some simple environmental changes. After all, the foundation for the future is where it is, and even if we don't have such conditions now, we still have to have it. We can’t all pitch tents in the wasteland together if we don’t have a decent place to live.

It is worth mentioning that Hedley burst out with great enthusiasm for this and took over most of the physical work on his own initiative. Lin Lu was very satisfied with this. After explaining some follow-up plans, he took W to the mission location. , I still have plenty of time, and I happen to be able to teach W on the way.

However, W's talent in flame prayer seems to be a little bit biased.

The simplest form of prayer, burning fire, was never able to be controlled stably. On the contrary, the more advanced practice of flame seriousness progressed very quickly, and it didn't take long for him to be able to use it properly. This made Lin Lu very suspicious whether this girl had something. Hidden self-destructive tendencies.

"I don't have that kind of thing. Who wants to die if I can live?"

In the temporary camp under the night, W held a weak flame in both hands and denied it.

"You say it's not true with your mouth, but your body isn't very honest?"

Lin Lu sneered at this, leaned against the dead tree, stretched out, and reminded teasingly: "Don't blame me for not making it clear. Fire Felony is a life-threatening skill for you now. You won't die after using it." To shed a layer of skin, the most important thing is that your clothes are not fireproof, and you don’t want to perform naked running in front of the enemy, right?”

"Of course I know!"

W's face turned red and she yelled angrily. The flame she held in her hand suddenly burst out and almost burned her hair. She was so frightened that she quickly extinguished it and glared at Lin Lu: "Can you be quiet! Don't disturb me. practise!"

"I can't help it. There's no one else but you in this wilderness. Who can I talk to if I don't talk to you?"

Lin Lu rolled her eyes, curved the corners of her mouth slightly, and lowered her voice.

"Speaking of which, you really dare to come out with me, aren't you afraid that I will take the opportunity to do something?"

"If you really want to fuck me, can you still hide away?"

W curled her lips disdainfully, not shying away from the topic. After getting along with him for this period of time, she finally figured out that this person just liked to take advantage of him. At most, he would just wipe some oil while riding a horse, but he would not do anything else.

Anyway, you’ve seen everything and touched it, so what’s there to be afraid of?

And she didn't think that a mercenary like her who behaved rudely and wandered in the wild all day was really that attractive. If Lin Lu really had any idea, what should have happened on the first day she was captured would have happened. Should I wait until now?

"You are a girl after all, so don't be so rude when speaking. You should also learn to be more polite occasionally."

"You talk about elegance to a Sakaz mercenary? That's the stuff of noble gentlemen."

"In terms of status, you are now much nobler than those bullshit nobles."

Lin Lu smiled casually and did not continue the topic, but asked about another thing.

"Speaking of which, it is possible to come into contact with Her Royal Highness during this mission. Don't you have any idea? I heard that she is a hero that many Sakaz people admire."

"What does that have to do with me?"

W replied nonchalantly, flames ignited on his fingers again, and he didn't look very interested.

"Some people say that she is as warm as the sun. I thought you would admire her."

"Hey, even I know that the sun can burn people to ashes."

The girl turned around, facing away from Lin Lu, staring at the flames on her fingers, with a subtle smile on her lips.

What kind of person is like the sun... Hasn't she found her own sun now?Why go after another one?

In the past ten years of life, he has been accustomed to intrigues, life-and-death fights, and walking on the edge of survival all day long. W doesn't think that many people can truly treat them as "human beings" like Lin Lu, even if That man is the king of Sakaz.

She enjoys the feeling of being treated as an equal and being trusted, so why would she pursue some hero over the near and far?

Those might be other Sakaz heroes, but not hers.

"It seems that my charm is quite strong."

Lin Lu touched her hair narcissistically, sat up straight, glanced at the crooked tree trunk behind her, rolled her eyes, and suddenly had a bold idea.

He quietly rubbed the cushion under him and moved closer to W. When he was close to a certain distance, he suddenly lay back and rested his head on W's leg.

"Hey! What are you doing!"

The flame on W's finger trembled and almost went out. He lowered his head in dissatisfaction and pushed his head on his legs with his elbow, with a look of disgust on his face.

"Don't blame me if your hair gets burned later."

"Your little fire can't even burn me."

Lin Lu didn't take it seriously, rubbed her head back again, and let out a sigh of relief, feeling a little regretful.

It's a pity that W is wearing the kind of field pants that are convenient for combat, and there is no special feeling when lying on them. It would be more comfortable to wear shorts and skirts like Mostima or Fiametta.

"Does this make you feel comfortable?"

The expression on W's face became even more disgusted.

But despite what she said, she still flattened her slightly bent legs.

Maybe she didn't realize it herself. Although they didn't get along for a long time, she already subconsciously wouldn't resist this level of intimate contact. If it had been someone else before, I'm afraid they would have been blown away by a bomb by now. Don't know where it went.

But it was Lin Lu who did this. She would instinctively relax her vigilance and even take it for granted. This was incredible for a mercenary who was used to being wary of everything around her.

Lin Lu was also happy about this. Even through the thick field pants, the girl's legs were much more comfortable than leaning against the rough tree trunk.

"……what are you doing?"

But while he was lying down, he suddenly felt something was wrong. Why did he feel that there was a faint smell of roasting something on it?Smells like...potatoes?

When he opened his eyes, he saw W stabbing a potato he picked out from nowhere with a dagger, and orange-red flames rose from the palm of his other hand, burning the skin of the potato.

"Ah, it's nothing, I'm just a little hungry."

W turned the potato over. He didn't know what he was thinking of, but his expression was very strange, making him want to laugh.

"Look at this potato, does it look like..."

Chapter 87 Conflict in the Night

"Where did you find this thing?"

Lin Lu had a question mark on her face. If he remembered correctly, they only brought necessary equipment and emergency outdoor food when they came out. There were no potatoes at all. Where did she get a potato?

not……

Some thoughts passed through her heart, and Lin Lu's eyes stayed on W's chest, her eyes gradually becoming more subtle.

"I put it in my bag."

W didn't seem to notice someone's very rude look. He carefully controlled the flame to roast the potato skins and answered casually.

"Potatoes are a good thing. They can be used for impact when there is a shortage of supplies. They can also be made into concealed bombs with a little modification."

Can I ask how you 'slightly' transformed a potato into a bomb?

He complained in his heart, but did not say it out loud. Smelling the aroma of potatoes and seeing the moon in the sky, Lin Lu also felt a little hungry. Of course, he didn't want to eat the potatoes. The outdoor emergency food produced by Longmen was still very good. , after all, it is much more delicious than potatoes.

But just when he was thinking carefully about whether to get something to eat first or lie down for a while, the roar of vehicle engines suddenly sounded from the night, and bright headlights illuminated the dark night. At a glance, there were at least a dozen vehicles. Running towards this side from the end of the horizon.

The escort mission set by the Tower of Babel was carried out in sections. The division of labor between the various teams was clear, and there was no follow-up support. It was self-evident what the identities of these people who suddenly approached were.

"Enemy attack."

Turning over W's legs to paint, Lin Lu immediately pulled down the tent on the ground and threw it into the weeds nearby. At the same time, she threw W to the ground, rolled on the spot, and rolled into the depression dug in advance. Inside, he pulled up the camouflage cloth and covered himself.

More than a dozen vehicles represent at least dozens of enemies approaching. Those who are rashly exposed are likely to encounter long-range attacks and concentrated fire.

Lin Lu herself wasn't that scared. The key was that there was a W next to her, so she had to be more cautious. After all, the purpose of taking her on this mission was to train her in battle, not to die.

"Have your mines been checked before?"

"I've checked it. Do I need to conduct a remote detonation now?"

W clung to Lin Lu's body and fumbled for a simple small remote control from his pocket, with a dangerous color flashing in his eyes.

She may not be outstanding in this aspect of combat ability, but when it comes to planting landmines and making explosives, she is very confident. When those people come to the place where the mines are planted, they will be greeted with a 'big gift'.

"Wait a minute, listen to my order, don't get close to the battlefield after detonating, and provide me with long-range support from the edge."

After calculating the distance and position of the convoy, Lin Lu whispered instructions, tensed her body, and was ready to take action.

"3,2,1... Explosion!"

As he finished speaking, W pressed the detonation button almost at the same time, and then felt the weight on his body suddenly disappear. Where was Lin Lu's shadow in the sunken pit?

boom!boom!boom!boom!boom!boom!

In the dark night, on the wilderness, more than a dozen dazzling fires suddenly appeared. In an instant, clouds and smoke filled the air. Unprepared, the entire convoy instantly became chaotic. Two vehicles were directly overturned by landmines, and the rest also exploded. They suffered a lot of damage and even collided with each other.

The running convoy came to a halt as expected.

Lin Lu had no intention of holding back against these people. This was a real battlefield and there was no room for mercy.

Accompanied by the loud roar of the dragon, the frost mist spread overwhelmingly, spreading with an astonishing cold air, covering most of the convoy. Under the moonlight, the frost was biting.

Before the fire ignited by the explosion dissipated, the cold dragon's breath fell from the sky, extinguishing the flames and evaporating a large amount of water mist. In an instant, the fog filled the air, and the entire area was instantly covered with a thick fog that made it difficult to see the sky. and the direction of the earth.

puff!
