War Lord

Chapter 77:   Bald Eagle

"A strong opponent is not terrible, what's terrible is the cowardly heart that you dare not face the challenge!"-Bald Eagle Lanqi

In a fighting training room equipped with new-age equipment, a man with short golden hair kept beating the boxing doll with his fists wrapped in red flames. The dolls shaped with high-strength resin armor have good resistance, and even the flames on the fists have not been able to make the puppets slightly burnt marks. Even if the temperature of Chi Yan on this man's hand has reached a high of six hundred degrees.

The high temperature of Liu Baidu is a sign of proficiency in the third-order fire element. The man in the punch was Sauron.

Exhausting all his energy to make the final blow to the doll, the flames from his fists dissipated, and Sauron lay on the alloy floor in a big font.

This is an underground fighting training room set up in the base camp where the Parkland family is located. At this time, Sauron should have stayed in the Evernight City of the Dark Council to receive advanced training for blood riders. The reason why he stayed at home was because of the failure of Sauron's previous mission and was suspended for three months.

Leah’s blood samples had been brought back to the Dark Council, and those three tubes of samples were immediately accepted by the Council’s Academy of Sciences and immediately put into research. But as Sauron had thought before, he should have brought back a living specimen of Leah, a Disordered Person. And because of Leah's death, the mission was considered by the upper blood cavalry to be Sauron's mishandling, so it was deemed a mission failure.

So now Sauron will appear in his home, indicating that it is a vacation, but it is actually a punishment in disguise. Sauron knows this better than anyone else. During the three months of his vacation, competitors in the blood riding can take advantage of this vacuum period to take the lead. This will lead to a series of unpredictable consequences. It is now certain that Sauron's position not only in the blood ride but also in the family has been shaken.

Thinking of this, Sauron remembered that golden eye. If he hadn't hit a zero halfway, how could he end up like this. However, the posture of Zero Runaway was still deep in Sauron's mind. Before he had been forgotten, Sauron did not dare and did not want to contact Zero again.

But Sauron didn't want to contact Zero, it didn't mean he was willing to let him go. In fact, he already has a target candidate. That person is Kabu's father, and he is also a Tier 5 sniper expert. Sauron knew that when the other party learned that his son had died in Zero's hands, that person would definitely not let Zero.

Because of that man, he put all his efforts on Kabu.

It's a pity that the man nicknamed the Bald Eagle, after retiring, went to a place in Little Elk Town. It is far away from the coastline that was re-developed after the catastrophe, and it is inconvenient for transportation. Even though Sauron had sent his entourage two months ago, it took only two days for the entourage to arrive in Elk Town.

And if you get this news and use some special transportation, it will take ten days for the bald eagle to get back. But it didn't matter, as long as he could come back, Sauron imagined that Zero's death period should not be far away.

At the thought of this, Sauron's mouth reappeared with a faint smile.

The Central Continent is very large. In the past fifty years after the Cataclysm, under the development of the company and the nobles, many lands have been returned to the embrace of civilization. According to incomplete statistics, there are no more than 800 settlements or bases in the Central Continent in the form of civilization. However, these large and small human settlements are nothing more than occupying a coastline from the east to the north of the mainland.

And from west to east on the mainland, nearly 80% of the place is still unknown in chaos. It was full of darkness and danger. Even the most powerful organization in the mainland, the Dark Council, the armed group Scarlet Knights under it had never planted the scarlet flag on the ground in the southwest. There are too many unknown lives there, countless ruins are shrouded in barbaric darkness, and the light of civilization has not yet touched this forbidden area of ​​life.

Therefore, the Southwest Land is an adventure paradise for all kinds of powerhouses. Some people brought back valuable species or resources on this mysterious land, while more were killed by undiscovered mutant creatures wandering in this land, and became their belly food, only desolate. There is a pile of bones on the ground. Sometimes there is even no corpse.

But even so, there are still more people flocking to this uncharted territory. There are hundreds of related tasks issued by the Dark Council through the network of various companies. Regardless of whether the Dark Council or other chaebols, their senior officials are eager to carry forward the secrets of this land. For them, the unknown means that a large number of resources have not been discovered, and these are huge wealth.

Elk Town.

This is a small town on the edge of the southwestern land. According to legend, before the cataclysm, there were fertile forest resources near the town, where a large number of elk lived and reproduced. The residents of the small town make a living by domesticating elk, so it is called the town of elk.

But after the cataclysm, the elk either died out or mutated into a ferocious species. The large forests were replaced by sand and rocks, and the huge wounds of the earth naturally separated the small town from the mysterious southwest land. Twenty years ago, a major among the Scarlet Knights led a thousand soldiers to the town to rebuild Elk Town and set it as a bridgehead to the southwestern land.

With a small town as a base, the power of the Dark Council has flowed into the southwestern land. In the past ten years alone, the Scarlet Knight has invested in a general, five major generals, a dozen majors, and hundreds of blood knights. For other areas that have been developed, this force is sufficient to destroy all known chaebols and settlements along the entire coastline. It can be put into the development of the southwestern land, but it is like sinking into the sea.

They seemed to disappear and never returned to Elk Town.

So the Dark Council changed its policy and opened Elk Town to other people on the mainland. Whether it is an individual or an organization, as long as they pay a certain fee, they can enter the Elk Town to supply them. It's just that all those who want to venture into the Southwestern Land must acquiesce in a contract that does not exist on any paper media, that is, they need to perform the obligation of mapping for the Dark Council.

From the moment they stepped into Elk Town, adventurers of any status acquiesced in the rationality of this contract. If you don't do this, it's not as simple as being thrown out of the town by patting your butt. Both individuals and organizations will be retaliated by the dark council.

Two years before the start of this contract, it was established as an irresistible status with the blood of hundreds of abilities. So now, no one is stupid enough to challenge the authority of the Dark Council and the power of the Scarlet Knight.

As long as there are adventurers, there must be a tavern. This has almost become common sense, and Elk Town is no exception. The only tavern in the town, "Dragon and Beauty", was opened by the Dark Council. The charge for drinks and services here is more than ten times that of other taverns on the mainland. Had it not been for the tavern opened by the Dark Council, and a bloodrider captain was stationed throughout the year, the tavern would have been lifted by angry adventurers.

Now, adventurers naturally have to silently endure the exploitation of the parliament. Of course, coming to the tavern to drink for fun is voluntary, and the Dark Council will not put a knife on your neck to force you to consume. It's just that few adventurers don't like alcohol. Even if the taverns are all inferior goods mixed with alcohol, there are still adventurers who love it.

And even if you don’t like drinking, it’s undeniable that the tavern is an important place to gather information. You can stop drinking, but you can't avoid intelligence. Entering the southwestern land without intelligence is like taking off your clothes and walking next to a fierce beast. No one would like to do that.

One source of intelligence is exchange, and the other is purchase. There are adventurers who sell information, but the most accurate and most valuable one can only be sold by the tavern owner, the Dark Council. Of course, you don't need to expect to be able to buy intelligence information of more than three levels in the tavern. Those are the secret information of the Dark Council, which cannot be bought by money.

But recently, an adventurer is selling all kinds of information in the tavern. Although this information is not enough to be sold by the dark council secrets, it is much more precious than the information sold by other adventurers or the tavern itself. Many adventurers have bought precious information from that person ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and brought back things that are several times the value of the information itself, and then left Elk Town happily.

In the eyes of adventurers, they are all lucky guys. Perhaps they were moved by other adventurers on the way, but as long as they returned to the base protected by the basic laws, those things would be enough for them to have a good food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

As a result, more and more people almost lined up with money in their hands to buy information from this adventurer, and this person's name also appeared on the tactical board of Captain Bloodrider in the tavern.

This person's name is Lan Qi, with the nickname of the Bald Eagle. The ability is Tier 5 sniper specialization, and his first half of his life was to serve Parkland, the fringe chaebol of the Dark Council. It wasn't until five years ago that he left the Parkland chaebol and ventured to the Southwest Land alone. In five years, he had few records of entering and leaving Elk Town, and it was only a month ago that he began to sell all kinds of information.

The captain of the Scarlet Knight looked at this black man with silver hair and silver beard on the tactical board, and with a stroke of his finger recently, he threw his information into the folder. An adventurer who sells information is not worthy of his care. What the captain cares about is how long he has to stay in this place where the bird does not **** before he can be transferred back to the blood cavalry headquarters.

Elk Town is indeed an important stronghold for the Dark Council. Even if the Blood Cavalry who can be deployed here fails to make an effort, they will increase their contribution points according to the length of their garrison after returning to improve their rank. But that's all for the blood cavalry of the combat system. He was left in a semi-retired position like a captain. After returning, he was still just a captain. Even if there is an additional contribution value, it is far from enough for him to be promoted to a major.

When the captain was very worried about his future, the bald eagle appeared in the tavern again. However, this is the last time he appeared in the tavern. Because in the near future, he will receive a message that he has to leave Elk Town.
