The shop owner's mind has been completely controlled by Ji Dong, and he murmured: "Because only the magician can wear such gorgeous clothes, and only the magician and the army can have enough to eat. Look at your complexion and
Based on your clothes, I can only tell that you are a mage."
Ji Dong said in surprise: "Apart from the magicians and the army, don't you civilians even have enough to eat? Are there no nobles in your city?"
"Nobles? What is that?" The shop owner looked confused. "Lord Tianji said that all living beings are equal, and only by paying more can you get more. Masters of magic and the army must use force to protect our continent, of course.
The best things to provide. And we civilians can survive all because of their kindness. Everything must serve the magicians and the army. Since it was announced that the holy war was about to begin ten years ago, the taxes we originally had to pay
It’s doubled again. Except for the magicians and the army, even the city lords don’t have enough to eat. People starve to death every day.”
After listening to the shop owner's words, Ji Dong finally understood why he saw what he saw in front of him. This is how Dark Tianji's so-called thousand-year accumulation came from. It turned out to be obtained by squeezing civilians in this way. This shock to him
It's really not light.
"Do you have a map of the mainland here?" Ji Dong asked in a deep voice.
"Yes." Under Ji Dong's order, the shop owner stood up tremblingly, took out a somewhat broken map of the mainland from the cabinet at the back, and handed it to Ji Dong respectfully.
Ji Dong didn't know what the coins on the Dark Five Elements Continent looked like, so he naturally didn't pay him. He wiped out his memory of this short period of time and retreated.
Ji Dong was greeted by the solemn faces of the Tiangan saints. Although he went in alone before, he shared the situation inside with his companions through soul sharing. What he heard, his companions naturally listened too.
arrive.
Tianji frowned, "It turned out to be like this. I didn't expect that the Dark Five Elements Continent is completely different from what we imagined." Yes, it is indeed completely different. Before coming, the Tiangan Saints had no idea about this continent.
With extremely high predictions. With the strength of the Dark Heavenly Secret, all the Dark Heavenly Saints have the power of artifacts, and there are millions of extremely well-equipped dark armies standing on the Holy Evil Island. All of this
, all proving to them how powerful and prosperous the comprehensive strength of the Dark Five Elements Continent is. However, when they actually came here, they were surprised to find that everything was different from what they imagined. Here,
Not only did we not see any prosperity, we actually saw ruin. In terms of prosperity, this darkness was far inferior to the light.
Yao Qian wrote: "Is this the case only in this city, or in this area? After all, it is not too far from the front line."
Ji Dong said in a deep voice: "That's fine if that's the case, but if the entire Dark Five Elements Continent is like this, then the first thing that will be devastated is not our Bright Five Elements Continent, but the Dark Five Elements Continent itself."
Miaomiao asked Ji Dong: "Then what should we do now?" Ever since she learned that Fury was going to Infernal Affairs, although she was no longer angry, her beautiful face always had a touch of anger.
sad.
Ji Dong said: "Everything is going according to the original plan. At the same time, since the Dark Five Elements Continent is far beyond our expectations, we must also carefully explore this continent. There is still a lot of time, don't act in a hurry, only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we win every battle.
.If the Dark Five Elements Continent is really like this, then we can at least be sure of one thing. That is that the successors of Dark Tianji and his dark army are weak. With such a poor scene in the Dark Continent, even with the troops he has on hand now
No matter how many, it is impossible to fight a protracted war. An army of millions! The daily consumption is astronomical. And these consumptions are all for the civilians in front of me who don't even have enough to eat. Originally, I had no confidence.
But now it seems that our chances in this holy war are actually not small. I am afraid that the dark sky is coveting our bright continent precisely because the situation in the dark continent is not optimistic. His idea must be to use war to support war.
, invade our Bright Five Elements Continent as soon as possible, and further launch wars through plunder. Dark Tianji may be a tycoon, but he is by no means a good man in governing the country. In other words, in his kind of situation, no one dares to help him.
Governing the continent. Moreover, this situation must not have been caused by one generation of Tianji. He claimed to have sacrificed ten generations of Tianji to create the opportunity. It seems that the civilians on this Dark Five Elements Continent have also spent ten generations of painful time."
The Heavenly Stem Saints nodded one after another. If the Dark Continent is really like what they see in front of them, then the foundation of the Light Five Elements Continent will be much deeper than that. Of course, this will also depend on the Light Continent being able to bring it into being after the war begins.
It only makes sense to drag the war into a protracted war. Judging from the current situation, this is impossible.
Ji Dong said: "What we see in front of us makes the situation more complicated. It's too early for us to think about it now. We need to see more in this dark Five Elements Continent before we talk. Let's go, let's find some peace and quiet first.
Take a rest somewhere and study the map of this dark continent."
After all, this is a main city. Although it is dilapidated, it is not too difficult to find a hotel. Soon, everyone found a hotel with bungalows. A scene very similar to before appeared. When they walked in
After checking into the hotel, there was no need to say anything else. The owner and the only waiter in the hotel immediately came to greet them and respectfully helped them arrange check-in without even mentioning charging them.
Compared with the hotels in Guangming Five Elements Continent, the decoration here is outrageously simple. Fortunately, it is still clean. As the saying goes, do as the Romans do. Moreover, the Guangming Saints have such important tasks, so naturally they will not get entangled in these external affairs and make do with them.
Stay in it.
Ji Dong gathered his friends in his small room. As soon as they entered the door, Yao Qianshu said with a smile: "The feeling of this Dark Five Elements Continent is not bad. It is simply a magician's paradise. When the magician comes here,
Like an uncle. It seems like you don’t have to pay for anything. The magicians in the Dark Five Elements Continent are really happy!"
Tianji glanced at Yao Qianshu and said, "Then do you know what this situation means?"
Yao Qianshu was stunned for a moment, "Wasting people and money? Does it mean that ordinary people live in poverty?"
Tianji shook his head, and Ji Dong, who was sitting on the chair, already said: "This means that the number of magicians in the Dark Five Elements Continent will far exceed our expectations. Along the way, I observed carefully, in this city
Among them, the number of young and middle-aged people is actually very small. Before we were deposited in the city, there were also very few young and middle-aged farmers among the farmers in the farmland on both sides of the official road. I just thought about it carefully, and this means
Because of these two things, all the young and middle-aged people may have devoted themselves to the great cause of the Dark Sky. If you are residents of this city and live on such a continent, what will you do after you have children?
?In order to get ahead, to have enough to eat and live a good life, there are only two choices. The first choice is naturally to become a magician. If I guessed correctly, there must be someone brighter than us on this dark Five Elements Continent.
The Five Elements Continent has a more systematic and strict way to select magicians. And it must be everywhere, and everything is controlled by the dark secret. In order to survive better and live a good life, as long as teenagers have half the talent of a magician, they will probably
Under the supervision of their families, they go all out to practice in order to fly on the branches and become phoenixes. For those teenagers who really have no way to practice and become magicians, in order to have enough food and clothing, the other way is to become a soldier, although it is much more difficult.
, but after all, the army can definitely keep them fed."
Tianji said through Ji Dong's words: "In this case, we may have to re-estimate the Dark Five Elements Continent. If all the cities in the Dark Five Elements Continent are like this one, or similar. Then, the Dark Five Elements Continent will
The total number of magicians and armies in the mainland is probably much more terrifying than we expected. Such a system is probably deliberately created by the dark secrets. It would rather consume the vitality of the future development of the entire continent than establish it with extravagant military force.
He has created a powerful and terrifying military force. As the master and believer of this military force, as long as he can invade our Bright Five Elements Continent, then everything will not be a problem.
Yao Qianshu took a breath, "Dark Tianji is simply too scary. I'm afraid only he can think of such a desperate situation. I'm glad that I was born in the Five Elements Continent of Light. Although in terms of military strength we are better than
The Dark Five Elements Continent is much worse, but a hundred years of peace has made our continent full of vitality. Although it cannot be said that there are no dirty places, compared to the life here, it is simply the difference between heaven and hell."
Ji Dong spread out the map he bought before on the bed, pointed at the map and said: "In terms of area, the Dark Five Elements Continent is smaller than our Bright Five Elements Continent, about one-third smaller. On the surface, it seems that here
It is also divided into five countries, and even the names of the countries are similar to ours. The characters are slightly different, but the difference is not big, and it is vaguely identifiable. In fact, the countries here have no meaning. Everything is
Around here."
As he spoke, Ji Dong raised his hand and patted the center of the map. Everyone focused their attention there, and saw that it was an area completely covered in black. There were no other distinctions on it, only the simplest.
Four words, that is: Dark Temple.
This must be the home of Dark Heaven. All orders to control the Dark Five Elements Continent are issued from here. It is also here that the strongest power of this continent has been mastered and has ruled this continent for thousands of years. At the same time, here
It will also be the first goal of our trip." Ji Dong's fingers tapped heavily on the area of the dark temple.
After hearing Ji Dong's words, Lang Tianyi's eyes lit up, "Young Master, shall we break the root of it first?"
Ji Dong smiled slightly and said: "This is of course one of the reasons. Now is a good opportunity for us, because the senior brother passed the news to Dark Tianji, asking him to lead the Dark Heavenly Saints to intercept us on the Holy Evil Island. Even if
We were well prepared, and the dark secret did bring us a lot of trouble. We finally broke through the siege and entered the Dark Five Elements Continent. However, from the moment we broke through the barriers and entered the Dark Five Elements Continent, we already had the initiative.
It's in our hands. We don't let everyone take action in advance, so that they can go to Dark Heaven's lair first. There are several advantages to doing this. First of all, Dark Heaven and Dark Heaven saints are not here. For us,
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, how can we not leave some mark for the Dark Temple?"
Hearing what Ji Dong said, everyone couldn't help but smile on their faces.
Ji Dong continued: "Secondly, there must be a large number of magicians stationed in the dark temple. Those who can be stationed there must be die-hard loyalists of the dark sky and the most devout believers in darkness. We absolutely do not need to kill them.
Any psychological burden. The third and most important point is that the two light water artifacts must be stored in the dark temple by the dark heaven. This will also be our primary goal. If we do not attack the dark god immediately,
Temple, then we will probably have no chance in the future. It is for these reasons that I set our first target here, and before completing this target, it must not be exposed. Do you have any suggestions?
Bring it up immediately and we will discuss it together."
Ah Jin was the first to shake his head and said calmly: "I only care about killing people, the rest is your business."
Chen Sixuan smiled slightly and said nothing, but her eyes always stayed on Ji Dong.
Yao Qianshu smiled and said: "Ji Dong has thought so carefully, I have no objection. However, Tianji, can you give us some calculations about the good or bad luck of this trip?"
Tianji nodded slightly, raised his hands, and pressed them in the air. At the same time, he retracted his palms and tapped his forehead lightly. Suddenly, the Eye of Tianji hidden between the eyebrows quietly opened, and a faint splendor emerged out of thin air. Accompanied by
When Tianji's Eyes were opened, Tianji's eyes suddenly became blank, but there seemed to be a special kind of light shining, as if he was staring at a distant place.
The Tiangan saints were attentive and waiting quietly.
For a long time, Tianji's right index finger pointed above his Tianji Eye, and all the splendor stopped at the same time. Taking a long breath, he nodded to Ji Dong and said four words from his mouth...
