Chapter 1121 The Cauldron
“So that’s it.”
Lord Blount had no doubts and asked anxiously: “Has the fire inside stopped? Has the Plague Land been affected by anything? Loss? ”
"Well, the fire has subsided. I'm sorry, Lord, but several mages in my team were injured and need to be sent to Hani City for treatment immediately. I'll say goodbye now."
Ed said to the team With a wave of his hand, he wanted to lead the people to run away first.
"Wait!"
Why are you running so fast?
Lord Blount frowned and raised his hand to stop Ed's team from running.
He just felt that Ed was leaving too hastily, running away without even speaking clearly.
When Ed was stopped, his whole body tensed up immediately, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.
He adjusted his breathing, slowly turned around, clasped his fists at Lord Blount and said, "My lord, do you have any other instructions?"
"Why are you so anxious? Let me ask you, how did you get into the Plague Land?"
Lord Blount noticed that as soon as Ed and the others left, the vines around the entrance to the Plague Land passage closed automatically, and then stopped him to ask.
Ed heaved a sigh of relief and threw a black cloud crystal rune towards Lord Blount from a distance.
“My Lord, it can open a passage to the interior of the Plague Land for you, but the plants in the Plague Land are still unstable now. You must be more careful. My men are seriously injured. Sorry, I have to say goodbye first.”
With that said, Ed led his team to evacuate quickly.
Lord Blount took the thrown crystal rune and looked at it carefully in his hand.
The seemingly ordinary spar has many obscure alchemical runes engraved on it.
Lord Blount picked up the rune stone and tried to walk towards the entrance of the forest.
“Chi chi chi…”
The forest vines sensed the crystal runes and retracted towards the left and right sides, once again revealing the entrance passage to the interior of the Plague Land.
Lord Blount asked: "Qibo, what do you think? Can we go inside the Plagueland area to check?"
Qipo felt a little weird in his heart.
He looked away from Ed and others who were escaping in a hurry, nodded and said: "Now that the fire has disappeared, it means that the Ghost Tower should be safe, but judging from the descriptions of the Purilla Union players, The forest has been stimulated and unstable. It may be dangerous to enter rashly now. I don't recommend entering on your own initiative."
"Okay, I'll let someone try to put down two signal flares."
Lord Blount ordered his men to release the flare and waited patiently at the door for two minutes.
Seeing that there was no movement inside the Plague Land, Lord Blount waved his hand to the team to enter the forest carefully.
The team cautiously moved forward along the opened passage for only two minutes, when everyone saw Fang Heng and Ma Xiaowan's mercenary group coming from the front of the passage.
"Lord Fang Heng! Are you okay?"
Seeing that Fang Heng was okay, Lord Blount felt a stone fall in his heart and waved his hand forward.
"Yeah."
Fang Heng nodded, waved his hand as well, and responded in a deep voice.
"Lord Blount, I'm okay, but my territory has just been attacked by barbarians. Someone also deliberately set fire around the Ghost Tower before. The Ghost Tower suffered heavy losses, and the flames spread to affect the sacred tree. If If I hadn’t arrived in time, the consequences would have been even worse.”
Barbarians? set fire?
Lord Blount and the two accompanying lords were shocked when they heard the news.
"What about the losses? How is the situation now? Have the barbarians been repelled?"
"The barbarians have been temporarily repelled."
Fang Heng took a deep breath, with a sad tone, He continued: "But there are still a batch of The humans who came with the barbarians escaped first. Most of the newly built Ghost Tower in the territory was burned down. Most of the spare resources originally stored in the Ghost Tower were destroyed. Even the magic core was stolen by the enemy. "< br>
What!
The magic core was stolen?
Lord Blount's pupils suddenly locked, and there was a surge of anger in his heart.
Attack the Plague Land and deliberately set fire! Even the magic core was stolen!
"Who is it? Who did it!"
Lord Blount has a vast fiefdom. He signed an agreement with Fang Heng to build two mage towers in the first batch. More will need to be built in the future. There are many mage towers, so they naturally want to have a good relationship with Fang Heng and cooperate well.
Now the magic core is gone.
What to do with the Mage Tower!
The two lords who followed were also anxious.
A lord looked at Fang Heng, "There is a lack of magic core. If the mage tower is..."
"Don't panic, everyone."
Fang Heng reassured everyone: " I'll make friends with His Royal Highness Imperial Mingyue. We can ask the Empire for help, and the Magic Core should be available. At present, we can build other parts of the Mage Tower first. Once the Magic Core is ready, loading the Magic Core will awaken the power of the Ghost Tower."
"The construction period will not be delayed, but the actual opening time of the Ghost Tower may be delayed a little..."
Hearing this, everyone's expressions suddenly became ugly.
You must know that magic cores are very rare. If these magic cores are gone, it will not be that simple to get new ones.
Lord Blount asked: "Lord Fang Heng, do you know who did this? Can we find a way to get the stolen magic core back?"
" I came too late and didn't catch up." Fang Heng looked at Blount Xun. Jue sighed and shook his head helplessly, "By the way, did you see anyone when you just arrived? The group of humans who came with the barbarians fled in this direction. I chased them all the way, and the result was Met everyone.”
A passing enemy?
"That's not the case,..."
As he spoke, Lord Blount suddenly thought of something.
He closed his mouth and looked at each other with the two imperial lords beside him.
Purilla Mage Guild!
Ed!
It was them!
Damn it!
Cheated!
Lord Blunt suddenly understood.
Thinking about it carefully, they had already rushed to support as soon as they discovered the fire. How could the Purilla Mage Guild come to support so early before them?
“This is strange. I didn’t see anything, so why did people suddenly disappear? Moreover, they were able to sneak into the Plague Land quietly and set fire to burn down the Ghost Tower. It’s really It's so strange..."
Fang Heng said to himself, suddenly thought of something, frowned, and turned his eyes to Lord Blount.
He looked suspicious and asked: "Lord Blount, I would like to take the liberty to ask, where did the black cloud crystal rune in your hand come from? This is our unique pass to the Plague Land. , it can avoid the defense of the sacred tree."
Lord Blount opened his mouth and subconsciously looked at the rune crystal in his hand.
Depend on! That’s right!
No wonder he was so nervous when he saw Ed just now!
That guy who eats everything!
From the beginning he wanted to destroy their cooperation with the Plaguelands! (End of this chapter)
