Chapter 1169
1169 The rumors of the central spiritual ruins
After hearing the Holy Dragon City Lord’s words, Red Earth City Master felt like crying. He laughed dryly and said carefully, ” the last time we met, we were in such a hurry that we forgot to tell them the price. I’m so old and muddled, wahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Facing the Holy Dragon City Lord’s half-smiling eyes, Red Earth City Master stopped his embarrassed laughter and straightened his face. “Since you’ve helped us solve our biggest problem, we can’t be stingy, can we?
We’ve previously estimated how much we’ll need to spend if we were to do this. After we get a total number, we’ll round it up and count it as the employment fee for this mission. What do you think?”
He didn’t give a specific number so as not to make a dead end. Instead, he told them how the remuneration was calculated to see if the other party would agree.
Red Earth City Master had a nervous expression on his face as he said this. The other city Masters also had similar expressions. They were afraid that the other party would refuse and offer a price that they couldn’t accept.
The Lord of Holy Dragon City swept his gaze across the crowd and nodded slightly, then shook his head slightly.
Seeing the Holy Dragon City Lord nod his head, the city Lords were overjoyed. However, when they saw him shake his head, they all trembled.
‘F * ck, you can’t play with me like this. You’re nodding and shaking your head. Is it okay or not?’
Faced with the city Lords ‘conflicted expressions, the Holy Dragon City cultivator did not have the mood to continue teasing them. Instead, he said loudly, ” “Everyone, you don’t have to worry too much. We’ve always been fair in our actions. We will never do anything like Spirit Rock City, which is to bully you!
This time, he would pay as much as he should, and there was no need to worry too much.
To be honest, with our methods, the money you’re giving us is nothing. Have I made myself clear enough?”
When the city Lords heard this, the weight in their hearts was lifted, and the pressure on their bodies was reduced. As long as the other party did not ask for an exorbitant amount of money, everything would be fine.
However, at the same time as they put down their worries, the city Lords were also puzzled in their hearts. Since the other party did not care about the Commission, what was the purpose of this move?
Could it be that the other party had a grudge against Spirit Rock City, so they took the opportunity to attack?
How could they know that, to the Holy Dragon City, although the Commission for this mission was considerable, it was nothing compared to the combat power that the Holy Dragon City had invested.
After all, the strength of the cultivators in loucheng city was clear. The price of hiring a King level cultivator was definitely high, not to mention that there was more than one king level cultivator in the battle!
If they really wanted to settle this debt, then the price of two law Kings, three king-level cultivators, and a large number of Lord-level cultivators was enough to make these low-level buildings go bankrupt several times!
The hiring fee was only a small part of it. On the other hand, the spoils of war from Spirit Rock City were satisfactory in terms of both level and value. However, this was also because Spirit Rock City was a level 8 city, so the amount of wealth stored in it was definitely not comparable to that of a low level city.
Therefore, the Holy Dragon city’s goal was not the mercenary fee, but to obtain a legitimate reason to take action. While obtaining a large number of spoils of war, they could also avoid attracting unnecessary trouble.
If this was the wilderness Warzone, the Holy Dragon City would not fear any enemy with their strength. However, this was another distant and unfamiliar Warzone, and it was very likely that there were powerful continent-level towers here!
Although the Holy Dragon City was a fierce dragon crossing the river, it was better to keep a low profile in other people’s territory.
Plundering without a proper reason would definitely attract the attention of the top towers. Once they decided to interfere with Holy Dragon City, the gains would not make up for the losses!
The Holy Dragon City Lord explained his intentions clearly, but seeing that the other city Lords were still skeptical, he continued, ” “Although we don’t have any requirements in terms of Commission, we must add one condition. That is, when we have a matter that requires your employment, you must not refuse, or you will be our enemy!
As for the consequences of being our enemy, I don’t think you want to experience it!”
The Lord of Holy Dragon City snorted coldly as he spoke. A dangerous aura that belonged to a top-tier Lord spread out from his body.
Being swept by this terrifying aura, all the city Lords felt as if they had been drenched in ice water in the summer, and their bodies trembled subconsciously before they hurriedly nodded in agreement.
What happened next was simple. After the city Lords discussed it, they finally gave each other a price that satisfied each other. Then, they sent their men back to Lou city to get the money.
The Holy Dragon city’s Overlord cultivators waited in place, chatting with the city Lords from time to time, learning about the detailed information of this war zone while waiting for the Commission to be sent over.
Those city Lords naturally told the Holy Dragon City cultivators everything they knew, allowing him to obtain a lot of useful information very quickly.
This Warzone was called the spiritual ruins, and no one knew its exact size, but it was definitely much larger than the wilderness Warzone.
Compared to the wilderness Warzone, the top-tier towers here were not scattered all over the place. The closer to the central area, the more towers there were, and the higher the level of the towers!
It was said that there were a large number of national-level buildings in the center of the war zone. However, due to the limited space, these national-level buildings were all crowded together, echoing each other from a distance, and even living next to each other!
In the narrow empty space between these national-level buildings, there were also some low-level affiliated buildings belonging to them. A large number of buildings gathered together to form a super-complex of buildings. Even from a high altitude, one could not see the end of it!
There was a special reason why these buildings were gathered in one place instead of scattered.
It was said that the energy concentration in this place was extremely high. Whether it was the cultivation speed or the teleportation process in the city, it could be improved by several times!
The reason for this was that there was a super wild building called the spirit ruins in the central area. It was constantly absorbing and gathering terrifying heaven and earth energy, allowing the surrounding buildings to benefit greatly.
The name of the spiritual ruins battleground also came from this wild building, which showed how long the history of this wild building had been!
The specific situation of the wild building in the spirit ruins had always been a top secret. It was completely in the hands of the top buildings in the central area. The outside world had only heard rumors and gossip.
Putting the wild building of spirit ruins aside, the problem of energy concentration might not sound like a big deal, but it was extremely important to Lou Cheng!
The higher the concentration of heaven and earth energy, the faster the cultivation progress of the cultivators in Lou Cheng. With the enhancement of Lou Cheng’s attributes, the strength of the cultivators in Lou Cheng would definitely be much higher than those in the barren land!
this was also the reason why there were very few powerful towers around when the holy dragon city was first built.
This was because the energy of heaven and earth near the sacred Dragon Valley was very thin. Even in the savage wildland, which was ranked low and had thin energy, it could be considered a barren land.
The other powerful turreted cities looked down on them and gave the Holy Dragon City time to catch their breath and develop. In the end, under Tang Zhen’s investment regardless of the price, they actually developed and grew at a speed that others could not imagine!
However, under normal circumstances, the higher the energy concentration, the more it would attract countless buildings to fight for it!
The energy concentration around the building was higher, and another advantage it brought was the speed of opening the plane portal.
This was because the opening and teleportation of the teleportation channel was actually a process of absorbing and accumulating energy. As long as it reached a certain standard, it wasn’t impossible to instantly teleport a city to the foreignland battlefield.
Compared to the teleportation process that would take several years due to the lack of energy in some buildings, this was simply an advantage. It could completely give the invaded Otherworld no time to react!
Who was stronger and who was weaker, it was clear at a glance!
