"It's all over, now it's time to get back what belongs to us."
Zong Shen said softly, and with a loud chirping sound, Yingjiang's huge body fell from the sky.
Carrying Vereesa and the others, they landed outside the small courtyard.
This territory has been completely destroyed, not even a single person left alive.
Such a small-scale territory is basically the same as Zong Shen on the second or third day after landing.
He stood there and shook his head. He originally wanted to kill this guy and take away the available buildings and people in the territory, but he didn't expect that he couldn't stop the car after he started.
Anger filled his chest.
Although his reason is still there, he is unwilling to compromise for some petty gains.
Zong Shen just wanted to vent his anger happily.
"Forget it, this is not enough."
He curled his lips, put away the Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword and walked towards the territory storage box.
Now that Dempsey Morton has died, the territory has become ownerless, so Zong Shen can obtain the resources in the storage compartments and storage boxes through inheritance.
When he opened the storage box, he found the Heavy Bearer mecha in the package [Dempsey's Relics].
In addition, some ore resources were recovered.
In addition, there were some other resources, and Zong Shen accepted them all.
Speaking of which, this guy is really poor. The equipment he wears is basically whiteboard and high-quality.
There are no too powerful props in the storage compartment, only some potions, food and the like.
This can only mean that this guy rarely explores.
The [Market] here was also destroyed, and Zong Shen wanted to take a look at his market.
According to his estimation, Dempsey should be able to sell the stolen goods through the market.
When certain resources in the territory exceed a certain amount, they need to be sold in the [market] and converted into other types of resources, so as to meet the balance of resources.
Now that [the market] is gone, forget the losses.
"Please tell me the location of the kobold pilot."
He was not planning to stay here for long, because the battle just now had attracted the attention of the surrounding lords.
Under the silent night, the sound of horse hooves and the howling of wolves gradually approached.
Zong Shen was also prepared to make a quick decision and leave here after finding the kobold driver.
The guide prompts quickly revealed a golden thread guide based on his request.
Following the golden line navigation, they came to an open space behind the territory.
There are a large number of haystacks stacked here, and the kobold prophet responsible for driving is hidden in one of the haystacks.
Zong Shen immediately found it, picked it up with the rope, and jumped on Yingjiang's back with a movement of his body. He didn't want to meet other lords.
Revenge has been avenged, things have been recovered, and everything should be back on track.
"Take off, Eagle-chan!"
After sitting upright, he gave instructions to Eagle Sauce.
"Bah!"
Ying Jiang flapped his wings, flew into the air with his huge body and everyone, and quickly left the place.
Zong Shen changed the direction on the way and let Yingjiang fly towards the mine.
A few minutes later, several surrounding lords arrived at the same time.
They carefully observed and confirmed that the place had been completely destroyed before leaving.
Dempsey Morton's territory is not far from the mine, only more than 20 kilometers away.
At Yingjiang's speed, it only took a few minutes to reach the destination.
Zong Shen let Yingjiang fall on the open space outside the mine, and then turned over with power.
He conveniently separated the hemp rope binding the kobold prophet.
After the guy was loosened, he started to scream.
There were no torches lit outside the mine, and it was pitch dark making it difficult to see clearly what was going on around him.
So the kobold prophet is still in a state of confusion.
"It's me!"
It wasn't until it heard Zong Shen's voice that it calmed down.
"Sir...sir..."
"You, it was you...did you save me?"
The kobold prophet can also be regarded as the wise man among the kobold tribe.
Although I can understand mainland China's lingua franca, my speaking is very obscure.
"That's right."
"I'll take you to Dutra later."
Zong Shen explained casually, but instead of entering the mine in a hurry, he came to Yingjiang.
In the previous battle, although Yingjiang had a rough skin and thick flesh, he did not suffer any major damage.
However, there were still five or six arrows stuck in its body.
Basically they are located on the wings and front abdomen.
In this way, the arrows are like small toothpicks to the eagle sauce and cannot cause any trouble to it.
Some arrows were squeezed out by its own muscles.
The rest are stubborn arrows that are inserted deeper.
Zong Shen pulled out all these arrows with quick eyes and hands, and then led his men into the mine.
I have to say that Dutra handled it very well.
The first half of the mine tunnel did not leave any obvious traces, and the surrounding area was pitch black, just like an abandoned mine cave with no one around.
When they reached the bifurcated hall, four two-headed hellhounds were sleeping lazily. These guys could accurately distinguish between ourselves and the enemy.
Among them, the lava dog's head has magma-like stripes, always exuding the smell of sulfur and burning light.
Let the mine tunnel hall be filled with orange-red light.
The noise of everyone's arrival disturbed them, and the dogs got up one after another, preparing to check the situation.
"Quiet."
Zong Shen whispered, and the four dogs lay on the ground again.
These four two-headed hellhounds are the first line of defense in the mine tunnel.
After appeasing the dogs, Zong Shen led everyone towards the mine tunnel on the right.
The warehouse leading to the mining area is also where the kobolds live.
Speaking of which, Zong Shen hasn't been to the mine for a long time.
The last time he came here was after the underground challenge. He personally went to the mine with Dutra and the others and set up the [Ore Refinery].
Proceed along the mine passage and soon leave the passage on the right and enter the warehouse area.
There was finally some firelight here.
As burrowing creatures, kobolds are not dependent on light.
However, they still placed several torches near the main intersection of the mine tunnel.
Zong Shen held the [Magic Flashlight] in his hand and turned on two levels of brightness, making it extremely eye-catching in the mine.
It soon attracted the attention of the kobolds patrolling the perimeter.
When they saw Zong Shen arriving, they all ran back to their base screaming.
Just like that, before Zong Shen and the others had gone far, the kobold chief Dutra rushed over.
Although this guy is not a human being, you can still feel its joy after not seeing Zong Shen for a long time.
"grown ups!"
Dutra is still the same as before.
It came to Zong Shen and knelt down on one knee to express its respect.
"I've taken care of everything."
"I also brought back the Weight Bearer mecha."
"The mine carts from now on will be escorted by the Wolf Cavalry team."
Zong Shen turned over his hand and took out the loader mecha from the empty space of the mine tunnel on the side.
When Dutra heard this, he quickly stood up and nodded hurriedly.
The rescued kobold prophet also immediately stood behind Dutra.
At this time, the fourth team of Wolf Cavalry also came from behind.
They arrived just over half an hour earlier than Zong Shen.
"Sir, the fourth team of Wolf Cavalry is waiting for your dispatch."
The leader of the wolf cavalry came up to greet him.
Zong Shen looked at him but felt that he didn't look familiar. He seemed to be one of the second batch of soldiers.
After the third team of the Wolf Cavalry, Colby basically appointed and took charge of everything on his own. It was normal for him to find them unfamiliar. Now that there were more and more members in the territory, there were some soldiers that he really couldn't name.
"From now on, your fourth team will be responsible for protecting the mine carts."
"Of course, this is not a fixed task."
"Ask Colby to adjust the rotation time for you when we escort you back to the territory next round."
Zong Shen stood with his hands behind his back and naturally told the captain of the fourth team of Wolf Riders.
Then he waved to the kobold chief Dutra.
"Dutra, come here."
"You must pay attention to all aspects of the situation in the mine."
He leaned over in front of Dutra and said seriously.
"I understand, sir."
"Starting tomorrow, I will separate several teams of pups."
"Establish a mine sentry."
"They may not have strong fighting power, but they can still serve as sentries."
Dutra nodded quickly and directly stated his plan.
Unexpectedly, Zong Shen stood up straight and shook his head lightly.
"Not just outside."
"And here."
As he spoke, he pointed to the ground, and the meaning was self-evident.
"You mean underground?"
Dutra asked tentatively.
Zong Shen nodded.
"That's right, it's underground."
"The mining of mines should be limited to known mine tunnels."
"Don't blindly open new mine tunnels, and don't dig out collapsed areas for the time being."
"This is a large mineral vein area, although it has also undergone large-scale mining."
"But the remaining minerals are enough for the development of the territory."
"There is no need to expand the scale of mining for the time being."
He said in a slightly serious tone.
Compared with external problems, Zong Shen is more worried about the mine itself.
When Howie was replenishing the mine yesterday, he had already given the explanation once.
Now he has to explain it again seriously.
Because kobolds have a natural hobby of digging holes and mining, their orderliness cannot be compared with humans.
If there is any negligence and the monster sleeping deep in the mine is aroused, the resource mining work here will be seriously delayed.
So far, the mine has become an inseparable property of the territory.
A large amount of ore can be contributed to the territory every day.
These ore resources can not only meet the needs of construction, but can also be sold in the [market], which is a stable economic source for the territory to maintain rapid development.
The most important thing is that this place has great potential. Once he frees up his hands and clears the mine, he can add more manpower here and continue to increase the daily mining volume.
In addition, there is a gem mine in the mountains and forests waiting for his development.
These are the blood of the future territory, and they are responsible for transporting nutrients.
After hearing Zong Shen's serious order, Dutra couldn't help but pay more attention to it.
"Please don't worry, sir."
"I will definitely restrain those brats."
"Before I get your order, I will ensure that there will be no mistakes."
Dutra bowed again, almost at a ninety-degree angle.
"Okay, then just keep collecting normally."
"Report to me immediately if you find anything."
"In the state of emergency, I allow you to apply for appropriate garrison troops from the territory."
“If you have any needs or suggestions, don’t hide them away, inform the territory in time.”
Zong Shen added a few more words and took a look at the dim mine.
Dempsey's problem has been solved, but there is no need to stay.
However, the issue of the essential ownership of the mine remains unresolved.
It's not like a building here, it doesn't have an obvious ownership.
After all, it is a huge hidden danger.
Zong Shen could only delay the process temporarily, at least to ensure normal output for a period of time.
For this reason, he had to find a way to cover the entrance of the mine.
Before more lords discover this place, continue to increase the number of troops and manpower in the mine.
Zong Shen thought for a moment and realized that there was still a long way to go regarding the construction of the mine.
After putting aside all the important short-term matters, Zong Shen decided to leave.
The kobold chief Dutra, together with several kobold prophets in charge and the fourth team of wolf cavalry, sent Zong Shen and others to the entrance of the mine.
Outside the mine, Eagle Sauce was idly cleaning feathers with his beak.
The huge figure almost startled Dutra.
The accompanying kobold prophet was even more unbearable, standing on the spot and trembling continuously.
If Zong Shen and the others weren't right in front, the kobolds would have been so frightened that they would have peed.
To these pups, the dragon-veined gryphon is definitely a terrifying predator.
Moreover, it has true dragon blood in its body, and dragon power can be released inadvertently.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This is also the reason why Eagle Sauce is more powerful than ordinary griffins.
I don't know which hungry dragon is responsible for this.
Kobolds are famous dragon servants and are very afraid of such dragon power.
Yingjiang was very calm. It just turned its head and took a look, showing no interest at all.
For it, the kobolds are too thin and small to be its food.
In this regard, Eagle Sauce has a minimalist style.
There are only two standards for aliens, whether they can be eaten or not.
"This is my new mount, Eagle Sauce."
"You don't have to be afraid."
"Okay, let's all go back."
Zong Shen felt a little funny when he saw the reaction of the kobolds.
The differences between ethnic groups are still very obvious.
Hearing his words, Dutra and the kobold prophets felt as if they had been granted amnesty.
He quickly bowed and saluted, and then returned to the mine without looking back.
Zong Shen sat on Yingjiang's back again, and after everyone was seated, Yingjiang took off again.
This time Zong Shen's destination is in the territory.
Now that everyone is back, and space beacons have been deployed outside Bosbang.
So there is no rush to rush back now, you can go back to the territory to take a look first.
The distance from the mine to the territory is only forty or fifty kilometers.
It might take an hour and a half to arrive with a loader mecha.
But Yingjiang was different. They flew over the territory in just five or six minutes.
Yingjiang has a contractual relationship with Zong Shen, and the territory's defensive arrow tower recognizes it as one of its own, so it will not launch an attack.
When they flew at low altitude over the territorial living area, Zong Shen noticed the commotion below.
Several large bonfires were lit, and two queues lined up for hundreds of meters.
Yingjiang finally flew to the central area and landed outside the lord's courtyard.
Zong Shen jumped off it deftly.
He took off his battle helmet and put it into the storage compartment.
I walked straight into the lord's small courtyard and saw the lights on in the lord's small building.
So I walked to the door of the small building. Standing outside the door, I could vaguely hear the chatter coming from inside.
The voice is not quiet, which proves that the speaker is a little excited.
And it was the voice of a young man.
Thinking of this, Zong Shen couldn't help but frowned and opened the door directly.
"Crunch..."
As the door opened, Zong Shen understood the situation.
The long table in the restaurant was almost full of people.
Luna sat at the top of the table, Mariel on her right.
To her left was a blond man.
He wears light armor and has the emblem of a roaring dragon on his back, indicating that he should have a kingdom background.
The cups and plates on the long table were in a mess, and purple wine dripped on the table.
It looked like these people had just finished their meal.
When the door was pushed open, the lively conversation suddenly stopped.
"Sir, why are you back?"
Luna and Mariel immediately stood up to greet them.
Zong Shen smiled and waved his hand.
The blond man sitting at the dining table seemed a little arrogant.
He didn't get up for a long time, and he wasn't even ready to introduce himself.
And so did those who drank with him.
Judging from their attire, it was obvious that they were all light cavalry.
Then the identity of these people is self-evident.
Zong Shen walked quickly to the dining table, the smile on his face still as before.
Luna and Mariel looked at each other and hurriedly chased after them.
"Sir, I forgot to introduce you."
"This is Mr. Hadrow, the eldest son of Baron Bezos."
"He brought the light cavalry to escort the refugees for us."
Mariel took a step forward, stood in front of the blond man and introduced.
At this time, Zong Shen happened to walk to the dining table.
It was only then that Hadro slowly stood up and looked at Zong Shen without a smile.
An inexplicable smell of gunpowder spread in the air.
"Hadro?"
Zong Shen grinned and did not extend his hand.
He could feel that this boy had an inexplicable hostility towards him, as well as some contempt.
Hearing Zong Shen announce his name, Hadro nodded.
"Exactly."
As a guest, not only did he not have any courtesy, but he also pretended to be aloof.
"Haha, I am the lord of this place."
"My name is Zong Shen, and your father and I are also good friends."
Zong Shen naturally understood who Hadro was, the eldest son of Baron Bezos.
So he didn't get angry, but chose to continue the contact.
"Hmph, what lord."
"This is under the jurisdiction of Bosbon, and my father is the consul of Bosbon!"
He said righteously, lowering Zong Shen's status by another level in his words.
After hearing what Hadro said, Zong Shen already regarded him as a fool.
