1218 Power Generator
“It’s very dangerous to go to Hani City alone. Do you need me to go with you?”
Warren cast an inquiring look at Fang Heng and said, “Alchemy isn’t good at head-on combat, but it can still help a little.”
“No need. I’m just going to take a look. I can handle it alone. Also, the magic array of the enlightenment stone needs someone to take care of it.”
“Hmm, good. I’ve been studying the enlightenment stone for quite some time. I’ll try to see if I can make some improvements to the alchemy array I’ve synthesized with the enlightenment stone replica.”
Warren understood Fang Heng’s thoughts and nodded, “Don’t worry. I’ll take good care of these alchemy magic arrays.”
“What about me? Do you want me to go back to Hani City with you?”
Fang Heng couldn’t help looking at Tang Mingyue, his eyes showing a bit of eagerness.
The main point was here.
Tang Mingyue!
Fang Heng pressed his hands heavily on Tang Mingyue’s shoulders.
“No need, it’s just a small matter in Hani City. Mingyue, there’s a more important thing that I need your help with. Only you can help me. Whether we can get the highest reward in this trial depends on you!”
“Meh?”
Sensing Fang Heng’s serious tone, Tang Mingyue also became a little suspicious and asked, “Really? Am I the only one who can help?”
“Yes, yes.”
Fang Heng nodded his head in a hurry and pointed at the alchemy magic array made from large pieces of enlightenment stones on the ground not far away.
“Look over there.”
“Meh?”
“Mental strength, I need your help to pour in mental strength!”
After absorbing the power of the ‘demonic seed’, Tang Mingyue now had endless mental strength.
In Fang Heng’s eyes, Tang Mingyue was like a perpetual power generator!
To rely on Tang Mingyue to fight?
The heavens! This was such a waste!
She alone was equivalent to more than a dozen teams of mages continuously pouring their mental strength into creating enlightenment stones!
In fact, Tang Mingyue’s ‘power generator’ alone would be even stronger!
In addition, the legendary alchemist, Warren, was working with them…
Tang Mingyue would provide her mental strength, and Warren would operate the alchemy magic array to complete the creation of the enlightenment stone replica!
He only needed the basic materials to construct the enlightenment stone, and he could continuously produce them!
After absorbing the enlightenment stone, the level of the sacred tree in the Land of Plague would be greatly increased…
This was such a beautiful scene.
Fang Heng’s eyes were shining with excitement.
It was a perfect loop!
Fang Heng’s eyes were extremely firm, “Mingyue, leave the other main missions and other small things to me. You are the most important thing now! As long as you pour in all your mental strength!”
…
Hani City.
The city was jittery.
The ordinary citizens were all sent home in advance and locked up. A large number of soldiers swarmed into the center of the city and imposed martial law. The entire city was filled with a somber atmosphere.
“Disaster, undead, a terrible disaster…”
Ma Xiaowan couldn’t help but mutter to herself in the prison.
Previously, after the Empire had announced that the Land of Plague had committed treason, the Tianli Mercenary Group, which had been transporting supplies to the Land of Plague, did not have time to escape. In the blink of an eye, they were surrounded by the troops led by the City Lord of Hani City.
Ma Xiaowan had no choice but to surrender.
Some of their warehouses and materials in Hani City were taken over by the city and the entire Tianli Mercenary Group was temporarily locked in the prison.
Ma Xiaowan had a premonition that being too close to the undead would lead to a huge disaster.
However, when she heard that Fang Heng had blown up the ancestral grave of the Empire’s royal family, she was still stunned for quite a while.
The undead had really reached new heights in their death-seeking.
“Captain, there’s bad news. All the resources transported into Hani City have been seized by the City Lord. Even a few large warehouses of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce in the city have been sealed. The situation in the other cities is not good either…”
“Okay, I got it.”
Ma Xiaowan nodded and took a deep breath.
Everyone kicks a man when he’s down.
Previously, the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce cooperated with the Land of Plague and frequently traded with the feudal lords, making a huge profit.
This also made many Chambers of Commerce jealous.
At the moment, the entire Tianli Mercenary Group’s supplies were temporarily seized, and even the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce was affected. It was not just Hani City, but all the supplies they had hoarded in other major cities were also temporarily seized.
Regardless of whether the goods had anything to do with Fang Heng, all the goods were seized at once.
The Chamber of Commerce must be behind this.
“Captain, let’s think of a way. There are still many supplies that are still being transported back to Hani City. If we stay here, our losses will only get bigger…”
Seeing the heavy losses, the team guards locked up in the cells grew anxious.
The team assistant could not help asking, “Why don’t we just work with the City Lord of Hani City, Brian?”
“We’ve been to the Land of Plague personally, so we know a lot about them. If we cooperate with Brian, we should be able to protect a large part of our supplies in the warehouse in Hani City…”
“Shut up!”
Ma Xiaowan glared at her assistant to stop him from continuing.
“Don’t mention cooperating with the Empire anymore. The royal guards will be here soon, and the great General Deng Wen will personally come to preside over the situation. At that time, he will naturally give us a fair punishment.”
Ma Xiaowan’s expression was cold.
Cooperate with Brian? And offend a natural disaster?
How do you think the Imperial mausoleum of the Empire collapsed?
You don’t want to live?
Logic told Ma Xiaowan that if she gathered the power of the entire Empire, fighting the Land of Plague would be child’s play.
However, she was still unwilling to offend a necromancy mage.
All this while, she witnessed the rise of the Land of Plague with her own eyes.
The whole process was terrifying.
Ma Xiaowan would rather have her mercenary group suffer a huge blow than go against Fang Heng.
Just as they were thinking, a sound came from outside the prison, and everyone was on alert.
The guards in the entire underground prison were in an uproar. They quickly gathered at the entrance of the underground prison and withdrew most of the guards from the prison area.
The outside world seemed to have entered some kind of chaos.
The imprisoned members of the Tianli Mercenary Group looked at each other and felt that something was wrong.
A guard raised his head and looked at the ceiling of the cell. He asked suspiciously, “Captain, did something happen outside?”
Ma Xiaowan tried to look out of the prison, but her vision was limited. At most, she could only see the corridor and a small part of the entrance to the underground prison.
“I don’t know,”
“Ahem, Captain, do you want to?”
A handsome middle-aged man in the team gave Ma Xiaowan a look and asked in a low voice.
The Tianli Mercenary Group had been out all year round, so naturally, there were many people with unique skills in the group.
It wasn’t difficult to break open the door of a dungeon like this.
Ma Xiaowan hesitated for a moment. She couldn’t help but come up with an unlikely idea.
Could it be…
The Land of Plague was attacking?
“No, we’re not in a hurry. Let’s wait.”
