Chapter 620 Race against time

A piece of gray and blue quickly dyed on roadblocks and checkpoint facilities. Wherever the gray and blue arrive, things faded away their original color, changed into transparent shapes, and then turned into pieces of crystal chips.

In a blink of an eye, a roadblocking checkpoint completely disappeared.

Tianyang put away the moonlight and looked around. The body had been dragged away by Kunlan and left in the nearby wilderness, buried on the spot.

Apart from the blood on the ground, nothing happened here.

Tianyang's eyebrows flicked slightly, and the area occupied by Black Star Fort was even more chaotic than he thought.

From the beginning of entering the consular area, there were first refugees and then foreign mercenary groups who did things wrong. Now even the family of Jingtao Fort dares to set up checkpoints on the road to charge fees.

After all.

It was still the foundation of Qingtian Fortress. Although it won the Fortress War, the management of the consular area began to reveal its disadvantages in this regard.

This is also impossible.

Qingtian Castle is too young, and things like foundation often require time accumulation and precipitation.

After helping Kun Lan bury the dead, Tianyang and his party continued to set off. The trip went smoothly. At about 4:00 in the afternoon, they finally arrived at the Yunjia Mine.

This mine is one of several precious ore controlled by the Yun family in the occupied area of ​​Black Star Fort.

The mine is quite large in size. When entering the mine, large excavation equipment can be seen everywhere.

There are many workers and dormitories.

After receiving the notice, Yunze, who happened to be working in the mine, came to the entrance of the mine with Yanhong and his guards.

Then I saw the "Bison" open into the gate and parked in the spacious parking lot.

Tianyang and others got off the bus one after another.

Yunze laughed loudly and greeted him: "Why are you here?"

Yunze didn't change much compared to what he saw when Qingtian Castle was separated that day. However, his skin color was obviously darker and his arms were wrapped in bandages. He should have been injured during the attack.

However, he was moving as usual, and his injuries seemed to have recovered almost.

After the two sides said hello, Yunze took them on a special car in the mine, circled around the mine, and introduced them in detail.

They didn't stay in the mine for too long. After all, the mine is not a place for gatherings. Even if the Yun family's financial resources are destined to be too bad in the mine's hardware and software, it includes a comfortable building.

But it is still not a good place to get together with friends.

So in the evening, Yunze invited everyone to the small town closest to the mine.

Usually, Yunze would live in the town, so he bought a house in the town. He only had two to three days a week and would go to the mine to handle business.

At other times, Duo lived in the town with Yanhong.

When the magnetic energy vehicle entered the town, Tianyang found that there were people wearing iron wall uniforms in the town.

Even at the entrance, there are two storms of three-dimensional armed forces.

“The town is not peaceful?”

The boy looked at Yunze.

The latter gently waved his injured hand and responded with a smile: "It is obvious that although Black Star Fort is not friendly to the people in his consular area, there are still many people with resistance among these people."

"Just last week, a small-scale battle broke out around here."

"Why is this happening?" Xiaobird couldn't understand. "I heard that fortresses reduced taxes by nearly half to occupied towns and gave many policy benefits to difficult areas."

"We are trying hard to improve their lives, why are they still feeling unhappy."

Yun Ze said lightly: "Because we are enemies and invaders to them. This emotion needs to be diluted by time. It requires enough interaction and communication to erase the grudges in their hearts."

“No matter how much we do now, for them, it is alms, not help.”

"But these are not the main reasons. If this is the case, these riots would not have occurred in the occupied areas."

"The main reason is that our fortress won in war and there are signs of rising."

"Obviously, not all fortresses are willing to see such things. We are very annoying in the eyes of some fortresses."

Tian Yang understood: "You mean, behind these riots, there are other fortresses."

Yunze smiled and said, "This is inevitable."

"Speaking of this, I have to thank Black Star Fort for conducting the taboo experiment. This attracted the attention of the Golden Party, which gave us enough reason in the fort war. This made the golden flag float on our fortress, so that the Golden Party will continue to pay attention to us even after the war ends."

"This period will last about three to five years. During this period, other fortresses, even if they are hostile, dare not provoke blatantly."

"But doing some small movements behind your back is inevitable. They will do everything possible to slow down the development of Qingtian Castle."

"And we must also take advantage of the time when the Golden Party is still on the fortress to grow rapidly. Otherwise, when the Golden Party no longer pays attention and we are not strong enough."

"Disaster will come."

After Yun Ze's analysis, Tianyang could understand why the fortress immediately marched to explore after discovering the secret realm of the Netherworld. All of this is to race against time.

In order to become strong enough to stay firmly in the Bay Area before the Golden Party retracts its gaze.

Otherwise, it will only be divided and annexed in the end.

It's getting late.

The magnetic energy car parked in front of a restaurant.

Yunze was a guest and hosted everyone.

They occupied the largest table in the restaurant. While waiting for the meal, Yunze talked freely and introduced the style of the town to everyone.

"The Black Star Fort is different from us. Their fortress has limited space and is built on the peak. Therefore, the fortress can only concentrate military and management institutions."

"As for residents, they can only be scattered in various regions and live in cities or towns on the ground. Thanks to their research on god-like creatures, these ground cities are not always threatened by god-like creatures like other places."

"Take this town as an example, it has been nearly twenty years and has not been visited by gods and evil creatures. This is an unimaginable record in other places."

Tianyang and others nodded in agreement, because there were gods and evil creatures in the wilderness that they needed to build a fortress to resist.

What a happy thing it is to have not been patronized by gods and evil creatures in the past twenty years.

"This town is not big, but it is quite prosperous. In addition to the restaurant, they also have bars. Every night, the bars provide various wines. Most importantly, there are girls of all kinds of charm, haha."

Xiaobiu coughed dryly: "Fourth brother, the master of this kind of thing doesn't need to explain it specifically."

Yanhong also said with a smile: "Fourth Young Master, you have a lot of experience."

Yunze coughed awkwardly and continued: "In the past, most residents of the town made a living by mining. Now, we have occupied this area. Due to insufficient manpower, we have introduced necessary personnel from outside, which has made more outsiders appearing in the town."

"This will bring another industry in the town to develop, yes, hotel. I have booked a room for you and have dinner later. If you don't want to go to the bar, I'll take you to the hotel."

"It is worth mentioning that there are a lot of delicious food and wine in this town. Among them, the fried fish in this restaurant is a rare dish."

"Because there is a big lake not far from the town. The lake is rich in a kind of fish. The residents of the town will go to the lake to salvage the fish whenever the fish are plump."

"In order to preserve lake fish for a longer period of time, they will use some locally produced spices, plus salt, to marinate and air-dry the fish."

"When eating, the lake fish will be processed through cooking techniques such as frying, frying and other cooking techniques. The lake fish made in this way, coupled with the secret seasoning, is delicious and has a distinctive taste. It is definitely a delicious dish that cannot be eaten in Qingtianbao."

While we were talking, the restaurant had already started serving.

Sure enough, the first one on the table was a lake fish served in a wooden plate.

As soon as the dish was served, it immediately exuded a strong aroma, seducing the greed in everyone's stomachs.

Kun Lan immediately jumped up: "I'm welcome!"

He picked up a piece of fish and put it in his mouth, shouting: "It's so hot! It's so spicy! It's so fragrant!"

Yunze smiled slightly again and said to the waiter next to him: "Please give each of us a glass of absinthe."

The bird blinked: "Fourth brother, what is absinthe?"

Yunze laughed and said, "This kind of drink is unique when paired with fried fish."

"Absinthe is a drink made from a wild fruit in the forest near the town. It feels extremely bitter when it enters the mouth, but soon, it will be sweet and finally produce salivation."

"It can relieve greasiness, reduce the sensation, and regulate the stomach and intestines. People here are used to having a glass of absinthe when eating."

Soon, a cup of grass-green drink was placed in front of everyone.

Tianyang looked at the green liquid and bubbles, and hesitated a little.

Kunlan had already picked it up and poured it into the wine.

Suddenly, the boy's face changed, he covered his mouth with his hands, and finally vomited all into the basin handed over by the waiter.

"What the hell is this!"

“It’s so bitter.”

"It's harder than horse urine!"

Tianyang said curiously: "You actually drank horse urine?"

The blue-haired boy shouted, "This is a metaphor! A metaphor!"

Yunze laughed and said, "When drinking absinthe, you should not drink it in big mouthfuls."

He picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

Tianyang learned from Yunze and sucked it a little. He felt bitter, but after a moment, he felt bitter and sweet, forming a very wonderful taste.

"It's not bad." Tianyang put down his wine glass.

"I'm not wrong."

Yunze put down his wine glass and said casually: "By the way, you didn't encounter anything on your way, did you? I heard that there was a slave trade incident in the occupied area yesterday."

The bird coughed dryly, looking proud.

Yun Ze was stunned and then said, "Xiao Liu, your expression... Could it be that you were dealing with that matter?"
