Chapter 1419: No War in Liang Zhu City
Trantor: Law Editor: Hitesh_
It was a rainy day. On the broad in area in the south of Liang Zhu City, the grasses had already reached the height of human waists. The boundless, shiny green grasnd was decorated with different sized mushrooms and wildflowers, blooming thrivingly. Within the light of sight, differently colored flowers were everywhere. Marmots and other small creatures had been popping out from the grass. Habits took family as a unit and leaped out of their nests. These scrawny creatures crazily wolfed the grass to replenish the energy they had burned in the past few years.
In the meanwhile, skinny wolves wandered through the grass, as silent as ghosts. asionally, shrill screams could be heard as poor small creatures were caught by them. A faint blood scent spread in the air. asionally, the wolves would give echoing howls of satisfaction.
A group of metal tes had been slowly hovering in the air, about a hundred meters high from the ground. That was a troop of dark-kind ve warriors and a few Xiu n schrs, on a daily patrol. The dark-kind warriors vigntly looked around, while the Xiu n schrs were writing down their new discoveries on papers.
"The life-force of this world is way too strong. It’s only been a few days since the flood has receded, but the world has alreadye back to life, almost entirely."
"Strong life-force means inexhaustible resources. Among all worlds we have conquered, this is the richest one. I even suspect that this world is even richer than our homew..."
"Shut up! You do not say such outrageous words! Supreme Saint Pan Yu, the creator of the world, the dominator of the world... The three suns and nine moons are your eyes, and showering under your never-ending glow, we will conquer everything!"
The few Xiu Can schrs whispered to each other. Abruptly, a dark-kind warrior burst with a shout, "Look, a troop is approaching from the south! Eh? Which family is this ve-hunting troop from? So lucky! Didn’t they run into our main force in Chi Ban Mountain? They haven’t been brought into the main force!"
Another dark-kind warrior threw a sideways nce at him and said, "Stupid! Since they’re ve hunters, how would theye through the main path in Chi Ban Mountain? They must have used the secret passage hiding in Chi Ban Market...Hah, as long as they avoid meeting the main force, those outer circle patrol troops are easy to deal with, with nothing but..."
This dark-kind ve warrior craftily rubbed his thumb, forefinger, and middle fingers together, as if he were counting jade coins.
The metal tes slowly descended and stopped in midair, lesser than six-feet from the ground. Under the metal tes, dim lightning bolts sparkled and covered the grasses down below with an extremely faintyer of lightning bolts. Along with sizzling noises, fire sparkles burst from the grasses.
In the thick growth of grass, over ten three-meters wide circles emerged. Within the circles, all grasses were pressed down to the ground in one direction. The ve-hunting troop approached, while tens of gs fluttered in the sky.
"Glowing Gold Chamber of Commerce, Sparkling Gold Chamber of Commerce, Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce...Ah, it’s an allied ve-hunting army! Today is our lucky day."
A group of Yu n nobles mounted on tall and muscr four-horned white deers held their heads high and rushed over. Seeing this patrol troop from Liang Zhu City, they nced at each other. Withrge steps, a Jia n warrior walked over.
"Hmm, you saw nothing today, right?" The Jia n warrior puffed up his chest and red at the dark-kind warriors on the metal tes. In Yu Dynasty, Jia n people were noble warriors. Their social status was much higher than dark-kind ve warriors.
The group of ve warriors hurriedly bowed to him and said, "Sir, we saw nothing."
The few Xiu n schrs stood on the metal tes and curiously looked at therge crowd of human ves behind the ve-hunting troop.
A Xiu n schrughed abruptly and said, "You have such a bad luck. Right now, almost all nobles have gone south, preparing for the war against the human beings. Liang Zhu City is empty now. You brought back so many ves, but you’re not gonna make any money from them."
Another Xiu n schr sighed, "You can only keep them in your ve camps, but the cost of meals is going to be huge."
Another Xiu n schr suddenly eximed out, pointing at a fat guy in the crowd, "Look, that one is like a lying olive nut...Oh my, such a fat ve? What do you expect him to do?"
In the crowd, Yu Mu rolled up his eyes. He was much taller and way huger than ordinary human beings. Patting his belly, he bared his teeth and roared like a beast towards the few Xiu n schrs.
Feng Xing stood by Yu Mu’s side. He was tall and slim, slightly shorter than Yu Mu, looking like a toothpick stuck beside a burger. The few noisy Xiu ns schrs didn’t even notice him. As Feng Xing poked Yu Mu’s soft fat on the waist, thetter snorted, pointed at the few schrs, and said proudly, "I am the best cook in my n...My special dish is roast Xiu n kidneys!"
The few Xiu n schrs’ expressions changed. Their faces twitching, they asked the Jia n warrior, "You brought a cook from a cannibal n?"
The Jia n warrior seemed to be slightly embarrassed. The dark-kind warriors had been extra polite to him, without daring to say anything unpleasant. But, these Xiu n shorts...Xiu n schrs and craftsmen had special social status in Yu n. Like the Yu n people, they were also high-grade nobles. Therefore, an ordinary Jia n warrior was always at a much lower position than these Xiu n shorts, who served in official institutions.
This Jia n warrior took out a leather bag from his sleeve sulkily and said with a deep voice, "You saw nothing today, right? Hehe, I saw this fall from your sleeve...I saw it clearly, it fell from your sleeve!"
A Xiu n schr took over the bag and opened it.
The human-head-sized bag was halfway filled with raw gemstones. Thumb-sized emeralds, pigeon-egg sized rubies, hazelnut-sized sapphires, it even included two egg-sized, perfect diamonds!
"Ah, not bad!" The Xiu n schrs took out a handful of raw gemstones from the bag and gave to a dark-kind ve warrior behind him. All dark-kind ve warriorsughed happily, with their mouths widely opened. Surely, this handful of raw gemstone belonged to them now.
"It was truly not bad. We broke a mid-scale n, which had three rivers in their territory. Each river was a gem mine." said the Jia n warrior with a muffled voice, "But, it’s shame though that the time was too limited. We had to rush out before we got too many gems."
Pausing shortly, he continued asking, "How’s Liang Zhu city been recently?"
The Xiu n schr put the leather bag into his sleeve and said grinningly, "No war is happening in Liang Zhu City. It’s all peaceful and safe, tranquil and quiet...I suggest you use the ninth gate in the southwest, near the Great Library. Not too many patrols were arranged in that area."
The Jia n warrior nodded seriously and returned to his troop withrge steps.
