Monarch of Evernight: Visitors in front of Camp 23
bsp;It is said that this group of adventurers are not natives of the Evernight Continent. Qianye couldn't help but feel a little surprised. When he saw the people, he was slightly surprised. There are five of them, the leader is an eighth-level warrior, and the rest are all seventh-level warriors. Their levels are so high that even the teams sent by wealthy families to deal with foreign affairs are generally of this strength.
The leader was a big man with a beard, and he introduced himself: "My name is Liu Hei, and I am the life-and-death brother of Bearded Lao Dao. This time, I have been entrusted by him to come here specially to give you something."
Liu Hei handed Qianye a lead box that was crude in appearance and even the lid was welded shut.
Qianye took the box and looked at it. Without using tools, he just tore a slit with his hands, and then opened the entire lid of the box.
This display of power made Liu Hei's eyelids jump, and his attitude became much more respectful.
There is an exquisite bullet box sealed in the lead box, which contains four force bombs. The warhead is crystal clear and round, as if it is made of fine jade. However, Qianye smelled a trace of blood. The warheads of these force bombs were probably made from the blood-sucking fangs of the Vampire Viscount.
Apparently the master of Dog Claw Town completed Qianye’s commission and transferred the goods through Bearded Lao Dao. These four blood-sucking bullets are extremely lethal to humans, only slightly worse than black titanium annihilation bombs. If hit head-on, one can kill a warrior or less.
After Qianye collected the goods, he suddenly felt something in his heart and asked, "Where does Brother Liu usually go about his activities? In addition to transporting goods, what other businesses do you do?"
Liu Heidao: "Just call me Dahei. Our brothers mainly transport goods between Yongye and other continents, and only occasionally take on combat missions."
Having said this, Qianye understood in his heart that Liu Hei's small but powerful team was actually a trading line. It's just a gray smuggling route.
Qianye pondered for a moment and said: "When you came in, you also saw the situation here. I have needs for a lot of supplies, and of course there are goods I want to trade. I just don't know what you usually transport. What is it? ”
Liu Hei's face showed joy. After they walked into the Dark Fire Mercenary Group's station, they were secretly shocked by what they saw. And when facing Qianye, he felt even more breathless.
They are all veterans who have been struggling between life and death for many years and have a keen sense of danger. Even though the mercenary leader was too young and not a general, the pressure he felt showed that Qianye's strength was far superior to theirs. The future development space of such a mercenary group will definitely extend far beyond a small place like Blackstream City.
Being able to find such a business partner in Yongye is equivalent to having an additional fixed smuggling route. The risk will be greatly reduced, but the profit will be doubled.
Liu Hei didn't delay, and immediately asked Qianye for paper and pen, and wrote two lists, "Master, this one is the list of materials we purchased and their prices. There is no upper limit. And this one is The goods we can provide should be in short supply here in Yongye. If you have special needs, we can also discuss them. ”
Qianye took the list and looked at it, and saw that most of what Liu Hei purchased in Yongye were ores and various materials special to the dark race, all of which were high-value varieties. Most of the sales to Yongye are weapons and equipment, among which force bombs are a large transaction.
Seeing the item of copper ore, Qianye couldn't help but feel a slight movement in his heart.
In the just past Yongye War, Qianye attacked a small mine where deserters were based according to Wei Bainian's arrangement. After that, the mine naturally came under his name. Although the scale of production is small and the types of ores are quite mixed, the copper ore listed on the list is included.
Qianye asked briefly and learned from Liu Hei that the copper ore produced by Yongye was of extremely high grade and was very popular with major financial groups in the upper continent. At this time, Qianye discovered Wei Bainian's seemingly careless meaning. The output of that small mine was not rare, but the copper ore in it was the easiest bulk material to trade.
For the just-started Dark Fire Mercenary Group, the ability to monetize the resources they control is very important, because that means a steady stream of supplies. Rare resources are of course valuable, but they are also subject to great trading restrictions.
Qianye immediately called Song Hu, counted the quantity of copper ore on hand, and agreed on the transaction price with Liu Hei on the spot. In addition, he also sold a lot of trophies from the dark race.
The total price of this transaction reaches 3,000 gold coins. Liu Hei will need a few days to raise cash, and part of it will be paid with a batch of force guns and force bombs.
Liu Hei was the unexpected surprise that Qianye gained in the past few days, but the people who went to Heini Town to secretly investigate Lu Jianan did not bring any good news.
After the last war, Black Ni Town is being rebuilt. The funds were allocated by the expeditionary force, so the mayor Hu Wei simply built Heinii Town into a complete fortress, which was even more speechless than the previous building layout. It is said that in another two months, the reconstruction work will be completed.
"Two months?" Qianye was startled, this progress was too fast.
"Hu Wei recruited a large number of scavengers, and many building materials were sourced from nearby areas, so the construction progress was relatively fast."
Qianye remembered the fat mayor he met when he first arrived in Heini Town, and he was quite impressed at that time. Now it seems that this fat man is really a talent. Maybe he can't give full play to his abilities by only managing a small town.
But the news that Qianye wanted to investigate Lu Jianan was disappointing. During the Eternal Night War, Black Mud Town was abandoned, and then the army of the dark race passed through it. Almost all the corpses of the scavengers were chewed into disfigurement by the servant spiders who lacked supplies and food.
Besides, in the past hundred years alone, Heini Town has been destroyed three times and rebuilt three times. The residents don’t know how many times they have been replaced. All the information has been lost long ago, and there is no news at all.
Hearing this, Qianye could only sigh.
The vampires may have some ways of identifying the blood that belongs to a certain clan that humans cannot understand. The blood knight probably found the descendants of Lu Jianan and killed them after grabbing the crystal shards. The corpses were unknown. Just throw it wherever you want. However, Sir Blood has died at the hands of Qianye, and this speculation may never be confirmed one day.
In the relatively peaceful life, the atmosphere in the Blackstream City area has become a little tense. Of course, this has nothing to do with the ordinary residents.
Qianye received news from Wei Bainian that the negotiation between the Expeditionary Force Headquarters and the Wei family had ended. The compensation the Wei family received was quite reasonable. It also showed from the side that the family that wanted to take over had spent a lot of money.
In addition, Wei Bainian also told Qianye the news that although the new division commander had not yet arrived, someone had arrived in advance and began to contact several powerful officers of the 7th Division in private.
Perhaps some local forces in Black Current City have also received visits in this regard. The Hunters Guild, several larger adventurer groups, and several underground trading points with less than stellar backgrounds have been obviously uneasy recently.
It seems that the family does have its own way of doing things. The new division commander has not yet shown up and has already begun to arrange the takeover defense zone. Wei Bainian naturally turned a blind eye to all this, and only waited for someone from the other party to formally hand over to him, and then he would return to the upper continent, but this did not prevent him from giving Qianye Xing some convenience.
Dark Fire has not had uninvited guests come to its door yet, but as the largest local force in Black Current City, Qianye and the core members of the mercenary group have long been aware of the unusual atmosphere in the city and have discussed this matter. Several times, the rules of conduct were determined.
As expected, Qianye did not wait long before the visitor appeared.
At noon that day, several armed off-road vehicles roared over and rushed straight to the gate of Dark Fire Camp. These off-road vehicles are all armored, with heavy machine guns mounted on the roof, and the emblem of the expeditionary force painted on the body. Even among the main divisions of the expeditionary force, this off-road vehicle with both defense and mobility is elite equipment.
The armed vehicles went straight to the gate of the camp, and the sentries with hidden fire immediately sounded the alarm. The large-caliber anti-aircraft machine guns installed on the guard towers on both sides of the camp gate turned their muzzles almost simultaneously, aiming at the overcoming cross-country convoy.
The guard at the camp gate grabbed the loudspeaker and shouted: "Stop the car! Who is this! Otherwise, we will shoot!"
On an off-road vehicle in the middle, there was a gloomy-looking officer sitting. He glanced forward and frowned slightly. He had information on Dark Fire, but it was obvious that the information was a bit old. The size of the opponent's station far exceeded what the information stated.
Hearing the shout of the sentry at the camp gate, he sneered and said, "Rush over! Anyone who dares to block the road will be killed!"
The engines of several off-road vehicles roared, their speed increased instead of decreasing, and they rushed straight towards the gate. Several dark fire sentries looked pale and aimed their guns, but did not dare to pull the trigger.
The off-road vehicles were clearly painted with the military emblem of the Expeditionary Corps. Attacking them was equivalent to attacking the Expeditionary Corps. Not long ago, these sentries were ordinary hunters or adventurers. How could they dare to offend the expeditionary force?
On the tower of the camp gate, an officer with dark skin and iron muscles frowned, pushed aside the sentry next to him, held a heavy anti-aircraft machine gun in his arms, and pointed it at the overcoming off-road vehicle. Just pull the trigger.
Thud, tug, tug! The dull sound of machine guns rang out, and powerful anti-aircraft machine gun bullets hit the road, stirring up mud, dust and gravel more than one meter high, thus outlining a clear ballistic trajectory that quickly extended towards the oncoming off-road vehicle. past.
The experienced expeditionary force soldier driving the car suddenly turned the steering wheel in shock, and the five off-road vehicles rushed to both sides of the road.
The first four cars barely got out of the way of the anti-aircraft machine gun, but the last car reacted a little slower and was hit by a bullet. For a moment, the armor flew away, and half of the trunk lid was completely opened. Several expeditionary soldiers in the car were thrown out. One of the unlucky guys had half of his arm missing.
Not all of the off-road vehicles that rushed to the side of the road to avoid bullets were safe. Two of them had obviously lost their balance and were about to roll over.
The door of an off-road vehicle in the middle flew out with a bang, and the officer who had first spoken to rush to camp jumped out when the vehicle was about to roll over.
His face was full of anger and he shouted sternly: "I am a lieutenant colonel of the expeditionary force! If you dare to shoot me, are you looking for death!"
The officer on the tower sneered, stretched out his foot to pick up an ammunition box, connected the anti-aircraft machine gun, and pointed it directly at the lieutenant colonel. The muzzle of the gun immediately spurted out tongues of flame.
