Among all the cities, Chibi City is medium-sized at best, but it also has a population of hundreds of thousands.
The food and materials consumed daily by the residents in these cities are far from enough to be produced by themselves. A large part comes from the many villages below and trade with other cities.
Therefore, the saintly ancestor’s path is also a path of life.
Once the Saint Ancestor's path is cut off by rogue bandits, and Chibi City can only hold on for a month or two at most, there will definitely be chaos.
This is something Zhao Zhenxuan absolutely cannot tolerate!
This innate strong man has sent out many teams to eliminate rogue bandits, but each time they came back defeated and suffered heavy losses.
So far, two acquired masters have been killed in the battle, dozens of warriors at the peak of marrow refining have been injured, and the remaining casualties are even greater.
No matter how big Chibi City is, it cannot afford such continuous blood loss.
Wang Chen was surprised: "The bandits are so strong?"
"That's right."
Zhao Zhenxuan nodded gloomily: "The leader of the bandits is the peak of acquired cultivation!"
The day after tomorrow, when you reach your peak, you will also do the work of robbing families and homes?
Wang Chen felt incredible when he heard it.
Even if such a master can't survive in one place, he can still thrive in another city incognito. Isn't it much better than being a bandit?
Is it for excitement?
Zhao Zhenxuan gave a very reasonable explanation.
He speculated that the bandits that harassed Chibi City were most likely supported by other cities.
This is not a surprising thing.
There are countless examples of cities supporting or forming rogue teams and sending them to other cities to plunder supplies. Especially in years when the food harvest is not good, many things happen.
These bandits not only attacked the Saint Ancestor's path, but also targeted the villages below the city, robbing homes and houses, and were very brutal.
At present, Chibi City has lost contact with many villages, and it is suspected that several have fallen.
Therefore, exterminating this evil-doing bandit has become the most important thing for Chibi City right now.
The problem is that as the most important combat force in Chibi City, Zhao Zhenxuan cannot easily leave the city to suppress bandits.
"There are many rogue eyes and ears in the city."
The innate strong man said in a deep voice: "Once I leave, they will definitely cause trouble in the city."
What the bandits are best at is fighting guerrilla warfare. They will never fight hard with Zhao Zhenxuan, they will only resort to sneak attacks and plotting.
Zhao Zhenxuan must stabilize his base, so he came here to ask Wang Chen to take action!
After Wang Chen heard this, he asked directly: "Then what's the benefit to me?"
In fact, Wang Chen had already made a move at this time, because it would not be a burden on him to eliminate these evil-doing bandits, and he could earn a lot of health points.
But if he agreed directly like this, wouldn't it make him look cheap?
Wang Chen didn't want to leave the other party with the impression that he was "easy to talk to"!
"How about a magic weapon?"
Zhao Zhenxuan had obviously thought about this problem for a long time and said without hesitation: "There are two magic weapons in the secret vault of the city lord's palace. They destroyed this group of bandits. You can choose one!"
This innately strong man's heart was bleeding.
The magic weapon was so precious that if the situation hadn't been so bad this time, he wouldn't have been willing to give one as a reward.
"A divine weapon."
To his surprise, Wang Chen looked uninterested: "I already have it."
Wang Chen not only has magic weapons, but he also has three of them!
It's useless no matter how much.
Even if you don’t want the magic weapon, you can’t deal with Zhao Zhenxuan now: “Then you say it!”
Money, women, power, and martial arts were all available to Zhao Zhenxuan, but he estimated that these mundane things might not be able to impress Wang Chen, so he simply left the question to Wang Chen.
Wang Chen is also in a bit of trouble - he lacks everything!
After thinking for a while, Wang Chen said: "Let's do this, let me go to the secret library and let me choose three things, except for the magic weapon."
"make a deal!"
Zhao Zhenxuan agreed without hesitation.
The secret vault of the city lord's mansion is filled with his private collection, the most precious of which are the two magic weapons. If Wang Chen doesn't want the magic weapons, let alone three items, he is totally willing to give up a few more.
In order to show his sincerity, he said: "We are going to choose now."
This innate strong man was quite good, so Wang Chen did not refuse and followed him to the City Lord's Mansion.
The City Lord's Mansion is undoubtedly the largest and most magnificent building complex in Chibi City. With many high-walled mansions and buildings, it is like a city within a city.
Zhao Zhenxuan took Wang Chen straight into the center of his mansion, dismissed the people around him, and opened the door to the underground secret vault.
The size of this secret warehouse is comparable to the one owned by Mr. Yao in Beishan. Everything inside is basically displayed on the shelves, including weapons, utensils, materials, elixirs, exercises, etc., but the quality is obviously quite different.
The most eye-catching among them are undoubtedly the two magic weapons, one hammer and one stick.
But the magic weapon that Zhao Zhenxuan regarded as a treasure was not as good as his Overlord Spear and Yue-Zhan Dao in Wang Chen's eyes.
"The shield on the fifth square in the second row on the right is pretty good."
Just as Wang Chen was choosing carefully, Mr. Yao's voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
Wang Chen walked over calmly and found the item pointed by the Nascent Soul Immortal.
This is a shield-shaped metal plate the size of a palm, almost two fingers thick, with a black gold color, and countless fine runes engraved on the surface, but it has no aura at all.
"This is a protective magic weapon."
There was a hint of schadenfreude in Yao Lao's voice: "I don't know which fellow Taoist brought it down."
Those he calls fellow Taoists must be monks of the same level!
The things are there, but the people are long gone.
Wang Chen immediately pocketed it without even looking at it.
This magic weapon cannot exert much power in the Wushan Realm. Once it is taken back to the Haotian Realm, its value will be high.
It is only natural that he worked so hard to come to this world to gain some benefits for himself.
Then, under the guidance of Mr. Yao, Wang Chen collected two more good things.
These things were left behind by the monks in the lower world, and only those at the Nascent Soul level could bring the items down. Those that have been preserved to this day must be of the highest quality.
The natives of this world like Zhao Zhenxuan should be aware of their extraordinaryness, but they do not understand the origin and purpose of these items, so they can only collect dust in the secret vault.
As time went by, I even forgot about it.
Now being dug out by Wang Chen and taken away, Zhao Zhenxuan's eyes flashed thoughtfully on the side.
He doesn't even want magic weapons, but wants these useless foreign objects. If there is nothing special about them, then he is too stupid!
But Zhao Zhenxuan had no intention of going back on his words.
"alright."
Wang Chen took a look around the other party's secret library and felt quite satisfied.
Naturally, I have to work hard next.
"City Lord Zhao, please give me all the information related to this group of bandits."
Wang Chen said: "I will bring their heads back within three days!"
