Protect Our Patriarch Chapter 16: Mysterious treasure! Li Ci made a fortune
www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of protecting our clan leader!
……
However, God Emperor Cangping thought about it and realized that Li Ci’s words may not be unreasonable.
If you sacrifice a projection and a Chaos World-Destroying Pearl, you can kill three demon lords and destroy the millennium of food and grass in the demon base camp. It is a huge profit!
This kind of endless racial war is like this, and I don’t know how many people have died for it. As long as the sacrifice is worthwhile and earned, then you can do it.
Others can be sacrificed, but his projection of the God Emperor cannot be sacrificed?
What's more, even if he suffered a heavy loss, at least he was still alive. If we really ask Holy Lord Yunhai to sacrifice, he will really be gone. Gangbadie is even more impossible. He is a sixteenth-level barbarian giant leader whose strategic value far exceeds his projection.
Such a great opportunity, fight for it!
A trace of determination appeared in the eyes of God Emperor Cangping: "This plan can at least reverse the unfavorable situation of our Dongxia Divine Dynasty on the Void Sea battlefield, and even allow us to gain a certain advantage on the overall battlefield, and provide Linglian with a certain advantage. The long war has opened a gap. I believe that with Marshal Ji’s ability, he will seize the advantageous situation and expand the overall results again. It’s worth it! It’s worth it!”
Although there were many conflicts between him and Pingtian God King, and they were inevitably suspicious of each other, he believed that Ji Taichang could still handle the issues involving the human race's major rights and wrongs.
"Old man, did you really agree?" Wang Lizi was a little reluctant to hear the other party agree so happily, "Although it is indeed a big profit, you still have a lot of personal losses."
"Silly girl~" God Emperor Cangping rubbed her head, "I am the God Emperor, and I am already responsible for guarding the Dongxia Dynasty. As long as it is of sufficient value or necessary, let alone a mere projection. , even if I sacrifice myself, there is no problem. Besides, I just deal with government affairs all day long, and there is no big deal. I don’t go to duel with other Taoist masters. If my soul is hurt, it will only last for a while. Bitterness."
"There are still many top-notch treasures in the Shenque treasury. You can recover after a little rest for eight thousand years."
"Okay, that's settled then." Wang Lizi nodded, "I'll write to my fourth uncle later and ask him to help you treat the backlash of your soul. Maybe it can alleviate your negative state."
"Okay, okay, then it will be as you say. Taking this opportunity, I will also meet your fourth uncle by the way." God Emperor Cangping looked at Li Ci dotingly.
This girl is really a lucky general. Working with Wang Yingxuan, she was able to find such a rare fighter plane.
As for what Wang Lizi said about asking his fourth uncle to heal his wounds, it would be effective, God Emperor Cangping didn't believe it at all.
He is a dignified Taoist master. Even a Daluo realm monk may not be able to heal his injuries. How can a mere Lingxu realm monk help him?
However, whether he believed it or not, he understood Wang Lici's intention.
Shortly after they decided on the plan, Holy Master Yunhai, who was responsible for investigation outside, also returned.
He was full of energy: "Friends, my reconnaissance found that a logistics supply force is entering the Tianhu Lake from the main stream of the Tianhe River. Our chance to attack the east and the west... uh... this is..."
"This is the strong support brought by Li Ci. As for the specific identity of Senior Yunhai, please don't worry about it for the time being." Wang Yingxuan waved her hands, "Since the opportunity has come, we will attack immediately!!! Let's have a glorious show. Victory~~"
Wang Yingxuan gave the order.
In an instant, the entire elite force of barbarian giants started to move.
******
Same time period.
In the Demon Clan Logistics Base.
Between countless round warehouses in the middle of winter, there is a group of splendid and luxurious demon buildings.
The building complex is divided into two parts. Behind it is a huge Demon Lord-level Demon Palace. The Demon Palace is slightly suspended above the base. It is at a certain distance from the surrounding buildings and can be separated at any time.
In front of the Demon Palace is a large and continuous palace group.
The Demonic Palace behind this palace complex is much lower, but its appearance is absolutely gorgeous. It appears to be very open and comfortable.
At this moment.
In this gorgeous and bright palace complex, the local Demon Lord Mingluo was hosting a banquet in honor of two Demon Lords who were passing by to rest.
This Demon Lord Mingluo is a very typical high-level demon clan.
His body shape is very close to that of humans. He is tall and has deep facial features. He is not much different from humans. Only the pair of huge magic horns on the top of his head and the pair of huge magic wings on his back highlight his unique appearance. His identity as a demon.
He was wearing a set of dark-colored armor and stomach, with a pair of membrane wings folded behind him, making him look majestic, but his face was obviously old, and there was even a hint of twilight.
Obviously, this demon lord is already quite old.
As a highly evolved race, the origins of the demons are very mysterious, and their internal genealogy is also very complex, mostly distinguished by bloodline and family. The demon Lord Mingluo, whose appearance is very close to that of the human race, is one of the more powerful demonic veins.
As a demon lord among high-level demons, his longevity is stronger than that of the human race at the same level, and it is not a problem to live forty or fifty thousand years normally.
But no matter how long you live, you will eventually age and die naturally.
The Demon Lord Mingluo in front of him has obviously reached the final stage of his life, and will soon reach the end of his life.
"Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord, White Bone Demon Lord." Lord Mingluo took the wine flask from the serving witch, and filled up the wine with his own hands for the other two demon Lords with a smile, "You two are in order to carry out the great mission. You have worked **** your mission as the world-destroying commander. I’d like to toast you.”
It turns out that the other two demon lords who were passing by for a rest were named [Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord] and [White Bone Demon Lord].
Among them, the image of the Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord appears strange and terrifying.
Except for his face, almost his whole body is covered in pieces of black carapace that glows with metallic luster and looks very tough. At first glance, he looks like a human-shaped scorpion, with sharp thorns on the joints of his body. There were barbs, and a terrifying scorpion tail trailed behind him, and his aura was unpredictable.
It’s just that at this time, his carapace was damaged in many places. Although there was no blood oozing out of the exposed flesh, there were traces of weird energy seeping out. It was obvious that he was injured, and it was not a minor injury. .
The Bone Demon Lord is a relatively rare female Demon Lord.
She is protected by white bone armor, and a string of refined small skulls are tied around her waist. Each skull exudes extremely powerful power.
These skulls are all fourteenth-level void beasts, human race, or skulls of other races. The most conspicuous skull among them hangs in front of the White Bone Demon Lord's crotch, exuding an extremely terrifying power. It is obviously the skull of a fifteenth-level creature.
Facing the attentiveness of Lord Netherworld, Lord Ghost Scorpion and Lord Bones reacted rather coldly.
Especially the Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord, he frowned and said in an impatient tone: "Mingluo Demon Lord, the two of us shoulder the important task of being the commander, so we can avoid this meaningless entertainment. I just ask When will you send our mission items to the base camp and hand them over to the commander?"
The Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord looked tense, his eyes were full of vigilance, and he still looked a little frightened.
It’s no wonder that he was ordered to ride with the Bone Demon Lord in his Ghost Scorpion Demon Palace, all the way deep into the Realm of Destruction, and finally opened the ruins designated by the Commander-in-Chief, and got the mission items, but he didn’t want to accidentally alarm him. The great terror exists in the realm of destruction.
If he didn’t have a lot of life-saving cards in his hand, plus the sacrifice of his subordinates, Ghost Scorpion and Bones would most likely die in the Realm of Destruction.
But even so, the Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord relied on the defense of the Demon Palace and tried his best to barely block the long-range attack of that terrifying existence. As a result, he himself was seriously injured. So far, his injuries are still intact. Not easy.
Even now, recalling that moment, he still felt uncontrollably frightened and uneasy.
He almost died without even seeing that terrifying existence!
He has secretly speculated more than once that the strength of that great terrifying existence may far exceed that of the Grand Commander of World Destruction. Otherwise, the Grand Commander would not dare to go to the Realm of Destruction in person.
After fighting for his life, he finally got back the designated mission treasure requested by the Commander-in-Chief. Naturally, the Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord did not want to cause any more setbacks, so he wanted to hand over the treasure to the Commander-in-Chief quickly.
If his Ghost Scorpion Demon Palace had not been severely damaged by that blow, and after barely traveling through it several times, it could no longer withstand the powerful space squeezing force in the space corridor, why would he have to Forced to stop and rest in this logistics base?
Even the mission treasure had to be entrusted to Lord Mingluo to be escorted on a transport ship.
When he thought of the wasted time, he was naturally not in a good mood.
"Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord, don't worry."
Compared with the tension and tenseness of the Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord, the Mingluo Demon Lord's demeanor is much more relaxed.
His tone was very relaxed and his attitude was very confident: "Where are we here? This is the rear base of the base camp! In this **** place, I have been here for ten or twenty thousand years from middle age to old age. ...I have never seen the Dongxia Human Race reach here."
"This place has no other characteristics, except that it is extremely peaceful. Occasionally, some blind void beasts pass by and die, giving us extra meals."
What he said is true. After living in peace for so many years, he had almost forgotten what it was like to fight.
As soon as these words came out, the Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord felt relieved, but he still asked with concern: "Master Ming Luo, when can your ship leave for the base camp?"
"In the past month, when the supplies of the last transport fleet arrive, I will use a cargo ship to **** the supplies and your mission treasure to the base camp." Lord Mingluo said with a smile. , "Ghost Scorpion, just relax, our place is extremely safe and the defense is impregnable. Nothing will go wrong with your mission treasures stored in the core warehouse."
"To take a step back, there is a space corridor connecting here and the base camp. Although in order to save resources, this space corridor is rarely opened, but if we are really in danger here, I will notify the base camp with a message, The base camp can come to support at any time through the space corridor."
Listening to what Lord Ming Luo said was reasonable, Demon Lord Ghost Scorpion also relaxed a lot. He finally raised his wine glass and clinked a drink with Lord Ming Luo: "In that case, I'll leave everything to Lord Ming Luo."
He doesn’t really want to offend Demon Lord Mingluo. Even though this demon lord looks inconspicuous and looks like a good old demon all day long, he actually has a lot of connections.
It is said that Demon Lord Ming Luo was also a brave general on the battlefield when he was young. Later, he was seriously injured and then retreated to the second line to guard the rear area for the great commander of the world. It is very complex and huge, and even has connections with other major headquarters.
"You're welcome, Demon Lord Ghost Scorpion, you have been valued by the commander-in-chief at a young age and have become his confidant. Your future prospects are far better than mine." Demon Lord Mingluo smiled and drank with him.
The atmosphere at the table gradually became harmonious.
After a few rounds of drinking, Demon Lord Mingluo called over a young demon with a handsome appearance and an evil temperament. He introduced the two demons to them: "Ghost Scorpion and Bai Gu, the two demons, I will introduce to you. Come on, this is [Demon God Zheluo], my descendant, please take care of me in the future."
"Zheluo has seen the Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord and the Bone Demon Lord."
Demon God Zheluo saluted the two demon lords with a very humble attitude.
He looks very young, and his facial features are somewhat similar to Demon Lord Mingluo. He looks like a younger version of Demon Lord Mingluo. Only his temperament is more than that of ordinary demons. A bit of youthful spirit.
Obviously, there should be a direct blood relationship between the Zheluo Demon God and the Mingluo Demon Lord.
The two demon lords nodded, showed a friendly expression to him, and said that if Zheluo encounters any difficulties, he can come to them for help.
As a result, the relationship between the two parties naturally became more harmonious.
They drank and drank with each other, as if they were best friends who had known each other for many years.
In fact, the drunken Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord was still telling the other party, vaguely pointing out that he went on a mission to the Realm of Destruction, encountered great terror, and survived by luck.
The Demon Lord Ming Luo was also frightened when he heard this.
It seems that the great commander who destroyed the world this time may have a big plan~~
However, this matter has nothing to do with Ming Luo. He will never get involved in things that he shouldn't get involved with. He just needs to guard his own land and leave some capital for his descendants to rise.
Time passed quickly as we drank and drank. I don’t know how much time passed, but the three demon lords were still drinking wine happily.
Suddenly.
A demon lord hurriedly broke into the banquet hall and reported: "Lord Ming Luo, the situation is bad! Something big has happened!!"
"Why are you so flustered? Didn't you see that this Demon Lord was entertaining distinguished guests?!" Demon Lord Mingluo's expression darkened, he put down his wine glass and said in a cold voice, "Tell me, what happened?"
The Demon God finally calmed down a little and explained: "Our last material transport fleet was attacked not long after entering the Tianhu Lake along the Great Tianhe River. Fortunately, the captain of the fleet in charge of the **** had the character of the Soul-Eating Demon God. Calmly and using the internal terrain of Tianhu to escape, we were able to escape from the murderous hands temporarily. Now the Soul-Eating Demon God has sent a message back, requesting us to go to the rescue immediately."
"What?! Who dares to attack our demon transport fleet under the eyes of this demon lord?" Demon Lord Mingluo was furious, "Did Soul Eater say what kind of enemy it is?"
"It is a small elite troop of giants. All of them are at the level of demon gods, and the leader is a giant at the level of demon lord." The demon **** said, "Fortunately, the giants are good at attacking fortresses but not at speed, and the soul-eating demon **** He was also familiar with the topography of Tianhu Lake, so he escaped."
"Giant? Demon Lord-level giant?" Demon Lord Mingluo's face suddenly became much more solemn, "How come there are giants behind our Demon Army base camp? Could it be that they are coming from the void sea current from behind? I don't know how thick the sky is and how thick it is. A small tribe of wild barbarian giants, or an alliance of giant tribes, are you preparing to become enemies of our demon tribe?"
If it’s the former, that’s easy to say.
But if the Giant Tribe Alliance secretly takes action, the nature of the matter will be different.
The giant race is a race with very strong individual strength. Its populations are scattered throughout the Void Sea, and their distribution range is very wide. However, the overall level of civilization of this race is relatively low, and most of them survive and reproduce in the form of tribes. Therefore, they have always been They have not been able to form a unified force since then, and they are not considered a strong race in the Void Sea.
However, just two to three hundred thousand years ago, a tribe of giants rose up. Its leader was smart, powerful, and charismatic. The giant tribe fought everywhere, united the scattered giant tribes, and established the [Giant Tribe Alliance].
In just two to three hundred thousand years of growth, the Giant Tribe Alliance has grown into a behemoth, and even the extremely powerful demon tribe has begun to be wary of their existence. It's just that the demons have been fighting everywhere over the years, and they haven't been able to deal with them for the time being. However, the giant tribe alliance has grown stronger.
"Could it be that the Giant Tribe Alliance has expanded?" Demon Lord Ghost Scorpion looked at him with awe-inspiring eyes, and he also thought about it with Lord Mingluo, "Our Demon Tribe saw that the Giant Tribes were honest and kind, so we did not deal with them for the time being. They actually Are you starting to actively stir up trouble?"
"It's not like that." The White Bone Demon Lord smiled coldly, "Although the Giant Tribe Alliance is very popular, compared with our noble and great demon clan, it is just a child who has just learned to walk. As far as I know, the leader of the giant tribe alliance has some brains, and he should not confront our great demons at this time."
"I guess it's probably the small tribe of barbarian giants wandering in the void sea. They are so greedy for wealth that they don't know how high or low they are to grab us. With the virtues of the barbarian giants filled with muscles in their brains, it is entirely possible for them to do this. Something like this happens."
"Then...could it be the barbarian giants in Dongxia's army?" Demon God Zheluo said cautiously, "I heard that in the past few hundred years, the barbarian giants on the front lines of the battlefield have been very active."
"Impossible!" Demon Lord Mingluo shook his head, "Ten thousand steps back, if the barbarian giants on the front line had the ability to run to the rear, with the ability of human Ji Taichang, how could he send such a small force to the front? Come to harass? The elite army has already sneaked over and wiped out our rear base."
"Hmph, I think it's just a wandering tribe of barbarian giants doing stupid things. They thought that there was only one demon lord in our base, so they had the evil idea of grabbing and running away. Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord, White Bone Demon Lord, please bother me. Come with me and teach that barbarian giant tribe a lesson."
"This..."
The Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord is charged with the important mission of being the leader of the world, and he really doesn't want to cause trouble, so he hesitates.
"Master Ghost Scorpion, if our logistics supplies are robbed, it will also affect the frontline battlefield." Demon Lord Mingluo said hurriedly, "What's more, if the giant tribe succeeds, Shi Mui will know it and spread the word. , attracting more enemies. If I go out alone, I will probably be able to drive them away. Why don't we three demon lords join forces and directly strangle the barbarian giant tribe, so as to scare the monkeys."
"Well, let me give up 80% of the merits of this battle and divide them equally between the two demon lords. This is also a big merit~ Not to mention, Tianhu and our base can be said to be as close as Chi Chi. , even if there is any accident, we can return to the defense at any time in a few days, without any delay."
For Void Sea, a few days' journey is really no different from the doorstep of home.
Hearing the words of Lord Mingluo, Lord Ghost Scorpion and Lord Bones finally couldn't help but feel a little moved.
With three against one, it is not difficult to destroy the barbarian giants, but the achievements and benefits are huge.
Another point is that they are currently resting at the rear base. According to the rules, they need to participate in the defense. If they watch the supplies being robbed and remain indifferent, those demon lords who have always been jealous of their favor may not If they miss such a good opportunity, they will definitely be impeached in front of the great commander of the world.
"In this case, the three of us will set off together." The Bone Demon Lord immediately made a decision, "Let's go back quickly, and keep the communication with the base open, so that we can call back at any time in case of an accident. ”
Actually, the Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord and the Bone Demon Lord are not very worried that this is a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
The mission they were ordered to perform during this trip was kept secret even within the demon clan. Only a few beings knew the inside story, including the world-destroying commander. As for the rest of the demons, at best they knew that they had gone out to perform a mission. As for where they went and what the mission was, they didn't know anything about it, so naturally they couldn't target them.
Now that the decision was made, the two demon lords were not sloppy, and they immediately boarded the Mingluo Demon Palace with the Mingluo Demon Lord.
Soon.
The Ming Luo Demon Palace started to activate, and then quickly accelerated, tearing apart the space and rushing towards the depths of the Tianhu Lake, hurriedly supporting the demon transport fleet.
Before leaving, Demon Lord Mingluo handed over the matter of guarding the base to Master Zheluo, and he was responsible for temporarily taking charge of the overall situation.
Although Zheluo, as the Young Demon Lord, is still too young and lacks experience, he is only allowed to sit here for ten days and a half. He will be back soon, so Demon Lord Mingluo has nothing to worry about.
******
The next two days.
Young Demon Lord Zheluo worked very diligently for two days. Every day, he patrolled around with the order of Demon Lord Mingluo in high spirits, ordering this and arranging that. The old Demon Lord Mingluo was somewhat majestic. posture.
This day.
After Young Demon Lord Zheluo inspected the perimeter of the logistics base as he did the previous two days, he couldn't help but think about some information that the Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord accidentally revealed after drinking too much at the banquet that day.
Judging from what he heard that day, the two demon lords seemed to have brought back an incredible treasure from the Realm of Destruction, and it was currently stored in the core warehouse, waiting for the help of Demon Lord Mingluo. transport.
For a treasure that can be valued so highly by the two demon lords and that even the commander of World Destruction is very interested in, what kind of good thing must it be?
Young people are inevitably a little curious.
Every time Master Zheluo thinks of the importance in the words of the two demon masters, he can't help but feel a little itchy in his heart, and he can't help but want to take a look.
When they were here before, he had no chance, but now, the Demon Lord's Order is in his hands...
With the thoughts of Demon God Zheluo flashing, he could no longer hold back, and simply found an excuse to leave the patrol team. Then, while no one was paying attention, he quietly entered the core with the Order of Demon Lord Mingluo. warehouse.
The area of the core warehouse is very large. There are rows of space containers neatly arranged inside, with a dazzling array of goods. There are also many space containers with locked doors and demonic restrictions arranged. They look very mysterious and also Don't know what's inside.
Master Zheluo has grown up in this base and has been to this core warehouse countless times, so he is naturally very familiar with it.
His eyes passed directly over the dazzling array of containers, and he started looking for the treasures brought back by the Ghost Scorpion Lord according to the marks, preparing to open his eyes.
Suddenly.
The space in the warehouse suddenly experienced a mysterious spatial fluctuation.
Then, right in front of Lord Zheluo, the space in the warehouse quietly cracked open.
Master Zheluo's eyes suddenly widened in disbelief.
This is the core warehouse, how could there be a space rift? !
Who is so capable that he can actually tear open a rift in space in a core warehouse full of restrictions, without even triggering the alarm system? !
Just when he was stunned, suddenly, a huge rat head popped out of the opening in the space.
The big mouse obviously didn't expect that there was a demon in the warehouse. He froze for a moment, blinking at the young demon master Zheluo with his small dark eyes.
For a moment, one demon and one mouse looked at each other, and the atmosphere was inexplicably awkward.
Master Zheluo was shocked and confused.
What the **** is this?
Wait a minute...could this be the legendary type of rats that are good at space escape? A house thief who specializes in digging up warehouses and stealing things? !
However, this big rat does not seem to be very strong. Judging from the aura it emits, it seems to be only at level 11, which is far behind him as a demon master.
I heard that this kind of rat is very good at escaping. It seems that it is not easy to catch. If I take action rashly, it will not let it escape, right?
Just when Master Zheluo was hesitating whether to step forward and capture it, or to call someone, the big rat seemed to have come to his senses, calmly waved to him, and then climbed out in a swaggering manner. A space hole.
Following closely behind the big mouse was a human girl, and then another human girl...
When they crawled in from the gap in space, they did not forget to wave hello to the very calm Young Demon Lord Zheluo. His posture was as calm as if he had returned to his own home.
"Not good! There is an enemy invasion!"
After being stunned for a moment, Master Zheluo suddenly reacted.
He was about to burst out with aura, rush forward to capture the enemies in front of him, and notify the patrol team to come and get them. Suddenly, an extremely powerful aura enveloped him.
The aura was vast and majestic, extremely terrifying, like the power of heaven, and instantly suppressed him to the point where he almost couldn't even breathe.
"Little devil, isn't it too late for you to speak out now? In front of this emperor, just be honest and surrender~"
A calm male voice laughed.
The Young Demon Master Zheluo could see clearly now that behind the two human girls, there was actually a human projection with a terrifying aura, and he directly suppressed him with just a face to face!
In such a blink of an eye, the two human girls and the big rat swarmed forward, and while Demon Lord Zheluo was unable to resist, they controlled him and tied him up.
"Ouch~ I'm confused." Suddenly, the leader of the two girls slapped his head, with a hint of annoyance on his face, "Anyway, we have already sneaked into the base warehouse, so we have to spend all our time to tie up this devil. What are you doing? This devil kid seems useless, so just let the scum rat eat him."
She looks silly and has a double chin. She looks very cute, but her words are not cute at all.
"Zhazha!"
Slag Rat barked happily, seeming to think this was a good idea.
"What?!"
Because the demons have been at war with the humans for a long time, the young demon master Zheluo, who had long learned the human language, froze. He felt a huge fear instantly hit his heart, and the whole demon felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
Does this pretty, naive human girl want to be so cruel?
On the other side, Wang Lizi, who had finished speaking the cruel lines, seemed not to feel that there was anything wrong with what she said, and just patrolled the core warehouse with her hands behind her back.
"That's right. My girl's feeling is indeed right." She looked at the dazzling array of containers around her, her eyes gleaming with excitement, "The things in this warehouse are indeed the most valuable. , this girl feels that there is delicious food everywhere. My dear, we have made a fortune, a big fortune!!"
