Lin Ze turned around and saw Lin Yingning walking towards him quickly.
"I have something to tell you."
As soon as Lin Yingning finished speaking, she heard Lin Ze say: "Is it about the beast control stone?"
Lin Yingning looked startled, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, apparently Lin Ze was right.
After coming back to her senses, she nodded quickly and said, "Yes, it's about the beast control stone."
"The elders and I have discussed this matter, and we all feel that this war is a bit strange. It is obvious that the strength of Yanlong City and Liehuang City is almost the same, and both sides can't do anything to each other, so they have continued to confront each other.
But now Yanlong City suddenly takes action to break this stalemate, we suspect..."
Lin Yingning did not continue, but Lin Ze already understood what she meant. In fact, when he heard from Guo Xiaozhi that Yanlong City planned to launch a war, the same thought flashed through his mind.
Since Yanlong City dares to initiate a war, it must have a powerful weapon in its hands that can change the balance of strength between the two sides, and this weapon is, not surprisingly, the Beast Control Stone.
In this way, Yanlong City's previous actions of sending a large number of people to various villages with beast control stones can be explained. There is no doubt that they were preparing for war.
"The Beast Control Stone is of great importance. We must keep it a secret and not let Yanlong City know that we have obtained the Beast Control Stone." Lin Yingning said with a solemn expression.
"I understand." Lin Ze nodded.
"You have been sitting in the mining area before, and you finally come back. Just rest in the village for a few days and walk around."
After talking about the business, Lin Yingning's expression softened slightly and he smiled lightly at Lin Ze.
"No, I'll go back later. The war will start in three months. We need to improve our strength now." Lin Ze shook his head.
Lin Yingning glanced at him in surprise, then smiled and said: "I just heard Captain Guo say that cousin, you have lit half of the fire ring. At that time, I thought that your cultivation talent was really amazing and enviable. Now it seems
, your ability to improve so quickly is also inseparable from persistence and hard work. This willpower is really admirable."
Lin Ze smiled when he heard this and said nothing. In fact, if it weren't for the player identity, his talent would probably not be as good as Lin Yingning, who is the real genius in this world.
After chatting for a while, Lin Yingning left in a hurry.
Since she became the leader, there was first the battle with the Fire Bear Village, then the Red Obsidian Leopard incident, and not long after that, the war with Liehuang City broke out. The incidents came one after another, keeping her busy.
On earth, even the time for cultivation has been reduced a lot.
The safety and development of the entire village depended on her, and one can imagine the heavy burden on her shoulders.
Looking at Lin Yingning's leaving figure, Lin Ze sighed slightly and followed him out of the conference hall.
Without stopping in the village, he went straight back to the mining area.
There are still three months before the war breaks out. Excluding the time spent on the road, he still has at least two and a half months to practice, which is enough for the Fire Element Body conversion rate to increase by a few percentage points, breaking through to more than 40%.
"It's a pity. If it weren't for the lack of Fire Origin Stone, I would be able to cultivate the Fire Element Body to perfection in less than half a year. By then, I would at least have quasi-sage-level strength." Lin Ze felt a little regretful in his heart, thinking about whether it was possible.
How to get a lot of fire source stones.
Taking advantage of this war, he could quickly obtain a large amount of fire source stones by invading the enemy's mining area. However, the fire source stones were inconvenient to carry, and he could not stay in the enemy's mining area to absorb the fire source stones, so this method was very difficult to implement.
.
While thinking, Lin Ze unknowingly returned to the mining area, shook his head to dispel his thoughts, turned around and immediately devoted himself to focused practice.
Each fire source stone quickly turned into powder in his palm.
...
Somewhere on the plain about ten miles away from Fire Fox Village.
A tall man wearing gray leather armor and exuding a strong aura threw aside the tattered corpse of the ferocious beast covered with scorched scars, looked at his companion who was looking into the distance, and asked in a deep voice: "What are you looking at?
?”
As he spoke, the centipede-like scar on his face became distorted, making his face even more ferocious.
"How many of these villages do you think can survive after this battle?" The scar-faced man's companion, a middle-aged man with a somewhat weathered face, suddenly asked slowly.
The scar-faced man sneered disdainfully and said, "No matter how many of them survive, as long as they can capture Liehuang City, what if they are all destroyed?"
The middle-aged man glanced at him, and after a few breaths in silence, he suddenly laughed: "That's true."
"It's you, why did you agree to the Fire Fox Village to reduce the number of people participating in the battle?" The scar-faced man looked at him dissatisfied, "Without the Fire Bear Village, it will be very difficult for us to gather enough people. We don't have to force other villages.
, how to complete the task?”
The middle-aged man said calmly: "Fire Fox Village is only a medium-sized village. It is impossible for them to dispatch soldiers according to the standards of a large village. Even if they are forced, they cannot be pushed to a desperate situation. The quota of 70 soldiers is already the limit.
If there are any more, they will definitely resist. Just ask other villages to make up for the missing parts. With a few more people in each village, it will not be difficult to make up the number."
The scar-faced man snorted, but did not retort.
The middle-aged man was minding his own business and said: "After the order is conveyed to all the villages, we will set off for the Hegu Plain. That is the front line that the adults pay the most attention to and put the most effort into."
"Although with the Beast Control Stone this time, our strength is much stronger than Liehuang City, it is not enough to form a crushing advantage. It is difficult and almost impossible to gain a huge advantage on three fronts at the same time, so
The adults have concentrated most of their troops on the Hegu Plain, and the other two fronts are just feints."
"As long as we can quickly defeat Liehuang City's army on the Hegu Plain front, we can take advantage of their unpreparedness and advance straight in, and the victory of the war will be within easy reach."
The scar-faced man said coldly: "Only if the other two fronts can hold out until then."
A strange smile appeared on the middle-aged man's face: "The dispatch forces of all the affiliated villages of Yanlong City have been allocated to those two fronts. It is impossible for them to win, but it is not difficult to hold the front for a period of time."
Of course, in order to achieve this goal, heavy casualties are inevitable.
He added secretly in his mind.
There was another penetrating roar of a beast in the distance, and several black shadows rushed towards where the two of them were.
"These annoying guys!" The scar-faced man spat on the ground and charged forward to kill them.
"A quick victory, we have to go to the next village."
