Vol 2 Chapter 680: Essence of Dead River Arms (6700)

  Chapter 680 The Essence of Dead River Armed Forces (6700)

  Three days have passed, and the spies from the Feiyandi Nanling Special Forces Brigade still haven't been able to obtain any definite information about the Holy Mountain.

  To be precise, no credible information was obtained.

  Some too bizarre, unbelievable news, they have a lot.

  Under the bright light yellow light, Captain Naimo tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingers, and looked at the report in his hand with a blank expression, which made the intelligence personnel who reported it tremble.

   And when the captain stopped tapping his fingers and raised his head to look directly at him, the intelligence personnel even closed their eyes briefly, waiting for the next slap or sword slap.

  —He also knew how outrageous the news he got was. If he were the leader, he wouldn't be able to help but beat himself up.

   But Naimo didn't make a move.

  The man just waved his hand a little tiredly, signaling the intelligence personnel to get out quickly.

  The intelligence personnel who were amnesty quickly turned their heads, and after the door was tightly closed, Naimo let out a long sigh: "Nanling...what a place where demons dance wildly."

  At the beginning, he will still be angry, lose his temper, feel incredible, and don't want to believe it.

   But in the end, when seven or eight different spies, spies and secret agents from several different channels sent back all kinds of different and messy news, he no longer had the energy to get angry.

  He is numb.

   It's like the information sent by the intelligence officer just now... Look at what he wrote!

— According to the Ministry of Manggu, Ian Yinfeng is actually the reincarnation of the steel dragon. As soon as he came to the holy mountain, there was a dragon chant and the mountain trembled. The real dragon is reincarnated!

  —The Ministry of Da Niu claimed that Ian Yinfeng was actually a prophet, so he was able to unlock the Longyou Mystery that has never been unlocked for hundreds of years...

  —The Mammoth Department stated that Manya Avod was summoned by the dragon god, and he could become a giant ground dragon tens of meters tall, emitting flames all over his body, and could spit out beams of light from his mouth...

  What a mess of rumors, the reincarnation of the steel dragon and the prophet have come, why don't you say that the lord of the White People is actually from another world?

   There is also a ground dragon that is tens of meters high... Why, when he, Naimo, has never seen the "Huangshan Giant Beast"? Why don't you say that Ian will also transform into a white blue-eyed crystal dragon and spit out thunder bombs?

  Naimo scoffed at the news, but the whole mountain people were full of these messy rumors, as if someone was deliberately propagating and disrupting the situation.

   But, even so.

  As a professional intelligence officer, Naimo still summed up the core elements of all the rumors from the chaos.

  —The Avod tribe rekindled the holy mountain sacrificial fire, and the leader of the White People led by Xiahui became the envoy of the Dragon God.

   At the same time, Manya Avod became the third energy level.

   No matter how outrageous the other news is, Ian and Man Ya are the protagonists of this turmoil.

  The rekindling of the sacrificial fire has indeed made many vacillating mountain tribes gradually inclined.

  In just a few days, the situation in Flameland and the rebellious mountain people has become dangerous. Many spies were even discovered and caught by the active mountain people.

  In a short period of time, Flameland's intelligence system was in chaos.

   And the root of all this is because Manya Adventure broke through successfully.

  He crossed the threshold of the one-thousandth success rate, and crossed the demon in his heart.

Only by becoming the third energy level can you lead the mountain people forward, but you can’t reach the third energy level without leading the mountain people forward. This common paradox joke is actually for all those who want to reach the third energy level from the second energy level A high wall to face.

  —Dreams cannot be realized without power, but power cannot be obtained without realizing dreams. To put it bluntly, it is as simple as that.

There are many extremely talented sublimators, because their dreams are too high and far away, they can't achieve them, and they can't cross this high wall of ideological shackles, so they can only stay at the second energy level for the rest of their lives, even if the potion is early. It was ready and could not be taken.

  If you want to break through it, apart from 'firm belief', there is only 'practice'.

  Even if you don’t have the power, you have to fulfill your dreams step by step...Only in this way, the sublimated who doesn’t put everything in himself can get the power of sublimation beyond himself.

   And then awaken the heart light body.

   Great irony.

  Those who yearn for power are doomed not to have it, but those who do not depend on it alone will always be rewarded by surprise.

   "The strategy needs to be changed, and the direction of the Frodo Autonomous Region and the Ministry of Avod needs to increase manpower."

Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, Naimo pondered: "Fortunately, the king of the mountain has also left the Mars Mountains, the range of dragons can move has expanded, and the deterrent area has also increased-steel pterosaurs are the key to the Nanling strategy. The main point, as long as the dragon group is not chaotic, nothing else is a big deal."

   "The next focus is on the decisive battle between the Avod tribe and the Jiamu tribe, and the ownership of the Frodo Autonomous Region."

  Drawing a circle on the map, Naimo was silent for a while, then dialed several secret frequencies.

   "Sure enough."

After getting the news from the deepest hidden sons, the captain thought deeply: "Ian has left the Avod tribe, and the tribe has also released the food supply. He should have reached an agreement with Man Ya on the food supply." cooperation agreement."

   "The strategy of suppressing by supply has failed."

   "Only in this way, we can wait for the news from the Xiahui leader... We can't let the Xiahui leader merge with Qigangshan, we must create a little disturbance there."

  Compared to the Avod Department, who can basically judge the direction of action, Naimo believes that Ian, an unstable factor, needs to pay more attention.

  Although many of the spies and informants on Xiahui's side have been purged, there are still some deeply hidden secrets lurking...they should be able to do something.

  Naimo believes that things are not that bad...he still has a chance to recover from the decline.

  The man slowly placed the report in his hand on the table and closed his eyes.

   "It's time to give Dragon Qun a new mission."

  In another conference room, a report was opened.

   "This is the list of Flameland spies. All the ones in the city are here."

  Ian, who returned to his own territory, came to the city hall immediately.

  He found Old Farr, who was leading Scott to familiarize himself with the work of the city hall, and gave such a list.

   "Well...Master, the people here are not ordinary..."

Old Fal took a rough look at the list and found that it corresponded to the people in his memory. He couldn't help showing a subtle expression: "Many of these people are in charge of the actual work in the city...they were all instigated, which is enough to prove that Flameland's The underground work is very well done."

  —But in contrast, how did the lord of the family get this list? The old man had some doubts in his heart.

   "Take us to take a look." Of course Ian would not say that these people were placed in special positions by him, and he asked them to report some information to Flameland.

   Moreover, because they are spies, these people are quite conscientious in their work, and they don't dare to be passive and sabotage their work on weekdays. Their work is solid and reliable, and they will never arouse the suspicion of everyone in the territory.

The teenager even specially arranged for Scott to work overtime for these spies, and asked them to 996 or even 997. They may be ordered to work temporarily at any time outside the break time. One person can be used as three people—these people dare not protest, it can be said that they are Tool people among tool people.

  Of course, as a mercy, Ian will pay overtime pay normally, which is part of the decapitation meal.

  However, the situation has reached the current stage, and it is time to screen out some people.

  Killing a few will make Fei Yandi believe in those who stayed.

  Ian pointed to the list: "Old Fal, help me to see which of these spies can be kept, even if there is an accident, it will not cause much damage."

   "It would be great if they could in turn cause harm to Flameland."

   Quite an embarrassing request. But the old man bent slightly: "My honor."

  Xiahui Lake, construction site.

  It was a little rainy today, and the lake surface was slightly rippling under the breeze, but a large open space had been sorted out by the lakeside, and many workers were constructing here, digging rock formations, and laying a solid foundation.

Professional craftsmen and construction teams from the Yinfang Chamber of Commerce have been working for a long time. Fortunately, the surrounding area of ​​Xiahui Lake is rocky terrain, not the usual sediment terrain. Difficult.

Light rain does not affect the start of construction, at least not so much in Terra. Although the construction team has not yet figured out the concept of "modular building" proposed by Ian, it is still in the initial foundation stage, and it is not in a hurry for the follow-up main body building construction.

  Hydroponic farm...Although it is a brand-new concept, you can tell what kind of building it is from the name. The construction team is also very interested in this new building, and everyone is very motivated to work on it.

  However, the workload is also very heavy. They need to find out all the areas around Xiahui Lake that meet Ian's requirements, and then make sure that all the buildings to be built next and the internal inscription formations will not interfere with each other—this is a big project, so it has to be done slowly.

   Otherwise, half of the construction will be postponed until the time comes, but no one will feel that it is the lord who suffers.

  The staff of the Xiahui collar city hall are in touch with the construction team, and are responsible for the construction team's meals and some daily tea and other care.

   "Director Gamma, are you here in person today?"

  The foreman, who was exchanging the construction route and the amount of materials with his workers, heard the sound. He looked up and saw a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties coming with a team of horses and horses, and hurried to meet him.

  This gamma supervisor has slightly round cheeks, quite energetic eyes, and a rather rich figure. He always seems to be smiling, which makes people feel close subconsciously.

   Supervisor Gamma saw that the construction team was still working, so he went up to shake hands with the foreman, and said kindly: "Oh, Captain Gera, why are you bothering? Working in rainy days is not efficient, so there is no need for the workers to work so hard."

   "When the time comes, there will be a mistake. I don't know if it's you who will suffer the damage, and it will be the lord's time that was delayed. I will also be held accountable."

  He turned sideways, raised his hand, showed the team of chariots and horses behind him, and said enthusiastically, "I think the rain will soon become heavier. Why don't you let everyone take a rest first, drink some hot soup, and eat some wheat cakes."

   "When the rain stops, I will work harder."

The team of chariots and horses was the food he prepared. The staff of the city hall opened the back door of the car, and the hot wheat cakes and stewed pork ribs and bean soup were displayed in front of everyone. thank.

  Working for the nobles is always polarizing. When you meet a kind-hearted person, you only need to focus on your work, and close the list steadily, and the salary is mostly good.

  When you meet demanding people, it is a good thing to be pointed out, not to mention the salary, if you are a little unsatisfactory, your life may be in danger.

  The new lord led by Xiahui, although he has strict requirements and a tight schedule, is generally a good person, especially with a good salary, which is better than many old-fashioned nobles who seem to be rich.

   And the Gamma steward under him, although he was a newcomer who was promoted in the civil service examination recently, he is really reliable in his work and takes good care of people, much more reliable than the stewards in the several territories they have been to.

   After Steward Gamma returned to the city with the consolation convoy, some workers couldn’t help feeling: “It would be great if all the stewards of the nobles were people like Supervisor Gamma. We will work hard, and the progress will be fast.”

   "Eat your wheat cakes, how many good people like this can you meet in this life?" The foreman couldn't help laughing and cursing when he heard this, but he was a little puzzled in his heart.

  Recently, Supervisor Gamma came to the construction site too diligently.

   Although it is a good thing to bring some comfort food or tea every time.

  But, does this also mean that the lord attaches great importance to the work of himself and others?

  Thinking of this, the foreman couldn't help being vigilant—this job really went all out to do it well!

   Otherwise, I am afraid that every piece of cake and every mouthful of soup I and others eat now will be taken out of their stomachs ten times!

"You lazy bastards, take a break! Start working when the rain is lighter!" He shouted loudly to all the workers: "Cheer up, all of you, if I find you lazy, I won't wait for the lord to take care of you!" Bury you into the foundation first!"

   "Yes, Head!"

  There were laughter and laughter on the construction site, while Ian, Scott and Old Farr floated in mid-air, overlooking the scene.

Floating ice crystals condensed into a translucent cloud, supporting everyone like a solid glass floor. Scott had already experienced the skills of his own lord, and Old Fal was a little surprised by Ian's age and his skillful operation skills. Disagreement, but did not say a word in the end.

   "Gamma... I didn't expect the spy to be him."

Old Fal looked at the engineering supervisor who had gone away, he pondered, recalled the information, and said slowly: "He was originally the steward of the building materials of the Lord's Mansion, and he is a veteran of the Laian family. It was the Ryan family who was expelled, so he shouldn't have thrown himself into Feiyandi."

The old man said firmly: "I guess the problem should be his son. As far as I know, his son married the daughter of a scholar in Nauman City a few years ago. Although it was later discovered that there was no such scholar in the city, she has already Pregnancy, childbirth, daughter-in-law working hard to manage the house, so I don’t care about these little things.”

   "There must be something wrong with the daughter-in-law there. Gamma is not stupid. After being threatened, she must know that she has boarded a pirate ship. But with a grandson, things will be much more troublesome. I can't let the child lose his mother, and let the son turn against himself."

   "There are not so many things about exposing relatives in the world."

   Speaking of this, Old Farr couldn't help sighing: "People are like this. If you make a mistake at the beginning, if you don't cut it off immediately, you will get deeper and deeper, and you have a fluke mentality."

   "This is really troublesome."

  Ian also frowned slightly: "This kind of penetration is impossible to guard against...Even if I can find every spy, there is still one talent missing in the territory."

  Although Gamma is a spy, she does work seriously and is quite capable. If it weren't for the spy, Ian would be quite satisfied with him.

   "Is there any way to avoid it?" the boy asked.

"There is no way." Old Fal narrowed his dark golden eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Even if you are tolerant and willing to forgive Gamma's crimes, you will definitely not reuse their family in the future—this family has lost everything so far. Possibility of advancement within your territory."

   "This is the future without future, or the future without descendants. Do you think they will take the risk of hiding it from you, or turn themselves in to you and confess their mistakes?"

  "Since you have been dragged into the water, there is absolutely no turning back."

"But." At this point, the old Farr changed the subject: "There must be hope in everything, and Gamma's hope is not in himself, but in his grandson, so he is different from others. It depends on how you plan to use it."

   "I don't think there are many people left on the list, and Gamma is one."

  Old Farr’s solution is actually very simple: he thinks that in the recent period, Feiyandi will definitely send people to attack the territory, interfering with Xiahui Territory and preventing them from connecting with the Avod River.

   And Gamma as the supervisor. It must be the informant of the relevant target.

As long as Gamma is willing to assist the Lord's Mansion to provide false information to Feiyandi, and he is willing to use himself as a bait to lure Feiyandi's troops into the trap with his life... Then, no matter whether Gamma is dead or not, the past can be written off .

  Even if the number of troops sent by Feiyandi is large and the value is high...then there is nothing wrong with keeping Gamma's position and making meritorious deeds!

   "I'll leave it to you to handle this matter. It's best to reduce the number of infiltrations, convince Gamma, make up some excuses, and make the raid troops sent by Flameland a little stronger."

   After speaking, Ian motioned Scott to learn from Old Farr.

  Although he can see who the spy is, someone will always be deceived, which is not a good thing for the territory.

"I will. Mr. Farr has indeed taught me a lot of useful experience." The young iron man nodded solemnly. He has learned a lot from this old man recently, and even gave him the desire to learn from the old man. impulse.

  Ian handed over all matters in this regard to Old Farr, and then summoned all the officials of the city hall to announce the territory's "winter bandit suppression" plan.

  Based on the concept of Terra people, the surrounding area of ​​Xiahui collar has actually returned to calm, and it can even be said to be quite peaceful, but according to Ian's request, it is still somewhat meaningless.

Today, in the mountains and hills around the territory, there are still some routs of the rebellious mountain people, and there are also a lot of veteran robbers and bandits before—although because of the mountain people's rebellion, these former "black and evil elements" For the rebel army in the true sense, they all shrank back and did not dare to move, but after Ian calmed down the surrounding situation, these people also emerged one by one.

  Some time ago, several caravans were intercepted by fleeing robbers. Although no losses were caused, it did cause panic.

  No one in Xiahui's territory objected to this.

  The matter of suppressing bandits must be suppressed at any time. No way to suppress it.

  Think about it, the caravan came out of the city with its goods, and was happily shopping and walking on the street, and suddenly it was robbed by bandits-the days without bandits are good days.

Especially now that Xiahui's force is far superior to that of the past, and he can crush any robbers without injury. It's a merit.

  And the other spies with ulterior motives wanted to quickly pass this news to Feiyandi.

  Ian wanted this effect. He announced that the matter would be handled by Scott, and then he brought his real team back to the Lord's Mansion and held another small meeting.

   "On the surface, all the militiamen in the territory will be dispatched to suppress bandits and conduct drills." He said, "But Qing Chao will bring a small team and wait for my news at the mouth of the Guyan Peak Gap."

   "It must be kept secret, can it be done?"

   "No problem, boss." Qing Chao said briskly: "The new director of the machinery department, Roland, isn't he just exploring at the Xiakou Flat? I said that I would lead a team to protect him. No one will doubt this excuse."

   "Not bad." Ian nodded slightly, even a little relieved: "As soon as the news arrives, you lead the team and set off, rush into the Midra Autonomous Region, and create chaos with me."

"Yes!"

  In Terra, there is a saying that if there is no lord, you have to stay behind to stabilize people's hearts. If there is a war, the lord with the highest combat power must do it. Otherwise, ordinary troops will have no power to fight back against other sublimators.

   But even with such a tradition, Ian's actions are still too risky.

  Adbert frowned slightly. He wanted to speak and accompany Ian to raid the Midra Autonomous Region, but Ian seemed to have anticipated his thoughts and raised his hand to signal him to stop.

   After Ian finished his other tasks, he left Adbert alone, and the two went to the alchemy laboratory together.

   "I am the strongest sublimator in the territory on the bright side, but too many eyes are focused on me."

  For Adalbert, who knows his true identity, Ian said bluntly: "So I can't use my full strength...unless I act alone."

"Although you won't expose my strength, you will expose yourself—Adbert, don't forget, you are the royal researcher of Grand Duke Thorin, and your identity may have been found out by someone with a heart. Once exposed, Instead, it will involve me."

"At that time." Ian humorously condensed a bubble in mid-air with water-based source matter, and then lightly popped it with his fingers: "Crack—everything about us will explode and turn into a big firework. "

   "Yes, yes... Sure enough, it's better not to trouble you."

  Adbert understood, and he couldn't help being a little discouraged.

   After all, he still wants to help Ian.

In this regard, Ian stretched out his hand, patted the dead king's researcher on the shoulder, and encouraged: "Don't worry, although you, like me, cannot use your full strength at will... But next, Feiyan will definitely find an opportunity to make a surprise attack territory."

   "At that time, you can act as a lurking raider, and as our surprise soldier, assassinate those surprise soldiers in the Flaming Land!"

   "Not to mention, in terms of research, I still need your help with many things. Letting a genius like you become a thug is really a waste of money."

Ian took out the information related to the 'Crystalized Blood Hunter' and the 'Swarm Psionic Network' from his arms: "This is... well. Anyway, it is a special modified biological material I got. There is no such thing in our territory for the time being. conditions to manufacture it, but I think the ideas in it are quite interesting, and we can study it together at that time.”

   "Specially modified creature? From Flamingo?"

  Adbert took the document from Ian with an eager expression on his face.

  He believes that Ian will not give too unchallenging tasks, and if they are difficult, his days in Xiahui will not be boring.

  Adelbert has always liked challenges, otherwise, he would not have held a high position with Grand Duke Thorin, taking on one difficult task after another that ordinary researchers are not willing to do.

  However, he didn't read these materials for the first time.

  Because Adalbert could see that Ian still had something to say to him.

   "Adelbert." Sure enough, the white-haired boy pondered for a while, then slowly said: "Do you know...the devil?"

   "It's not the creatures like 'Shadow Demon', 'Ogre' and 'Troll' in Alien... but in the true sense, subspace demons."

   Saying so, Ian looked serious: "How much do you know about this creature?"

   "Demon?" Adalbert was puzzled for a moment, and then reacted: "Oh, Void Spirit Demon...I know it very well, and even dissected several of them myself."

   "And, the power of this creature, Ian, you have actually faced it before."

  He raised his hand and pointed to the belt around Ian's waist with a smile: "Dead River armed."

   "The two core powers of the Dead River Armed Forces, 'Dead River Rebirth' and 'Soul Melting Power', are derived from a 'Blood Demon' that inhabits the depths of the subspace abyss."
