Chapter 388 Upside Down Mountain Necronomicon Lake (2 in 1)
What Bai Xiaowen didn't know was that Bai Yanni's almost collision with him was not a collision, but a coincidence.
Just because it was a coincidence, Bai Yanni's panicked expression when she fell cannot be faked, and this was also the reason why Bai Xiaowen did not see the problem on the spot.
The subsequent false injury was Bai Yanni's improvisation after seeing that the driver was Bai Xiaowen. The accident last night could be said to be true but not false, which left a very scheming impression on Bai Xiaowen.
That's why Bai Xiaowen speculated whether Bai Yanni would be used by his enemies.
After all, although Botu Guild seemed to be unresponsive and everything was calm, Bai Xiaowen could not take it lightly. Next, he had to go to the treasure space of Lake of the Dead to experience and explore, and he did not want to spend extra energy to explore Bai Yanni's true face in Lushan.
The happy gathering with the fans that night ended successfully. Sister Zheng rented dozens of cars and sent the fans safely back to their homes. As for the cost of renting a car, it was certainly not worth mentioning to Bai Xiaowen.
After signing the contract with the virtual battle company, Bai Xiaowen made ten bottles of perfect potions and handed them to Chaoshen Pharmacy for subsequent promotion and sales.
Under the influence of Bai Xiaowen, a genius pharmacy master, the sales of Chaoshen Pharmacy have also been growing steadily, and it can be said that it has gained a firm foothold in the malicious competition from Giant Pharmacy.
After learning that Bai Yanni had a bad start, Fu Hong, who had always been calm, smashed the glass in his hand angrily. After a few words with Fu Qiu, Fu Hong thought it was time to have a good talk with Zhao Yuting.
Of course, Bai Xiaowen was not aware of Fu Hong's little moves. He summoned the school team members and announced that the Lake of the Dead was about to open. Then, as before, he organized the team members to enter the psychic training ground to hone their skills and combat expertise.
Spend.
It is worth mentioning that Xiang Hui has reached elite level 4 through hard work, completing the leap from a junior awakener to an intermediate awakener, and his strength has improved significantly.
Bai Xiaowen's younger sister, Bai Xiaojun, is only in her third year of junior high school, but with the help of A-level intensive recipes and complete training facilities, her total personal attributes have exceeded 10 points, which is better than Bai Xiaowen, who was in her senior year of high school.
If this continues, Xiaojun will hopefully reach the critical value of 20 total attribute points by the time he is a senior in high school.
In fact, with Bai Xiaowen's perfect strengthening potion, he can already try to give it to Xiaojun, so that she can reach 20 points of total attributes in the first year of high school. However, if Xiaojun is allowed to enter the spiritual world in advance and accept the awakening person's job transfer test,
Not a wise decision.
When an awakened person enters the spiritual world, he is tested not only on his strength, but also on his mind and common sense. Especially the job transfer test, which is related to the potential template of the entire awakening stage, requires caution.
Generally speaking, it is a safer approach to accept the test of job transfer in the spirit world after you have completed high school, acquired general knowledge, and met all necessary combat skills.
As for Bai Xiaowen and Xiaojun teaming up to take the job transfer test? This is not possible.
It's not that we can't form a team. It's just that Bai Xiaowen is now a level 5 hero and is too strong to "lead" Xiaojun through the test.
If two people form a team, the difficulty of the test task will be increased to a staggeringly terrifying level. Secondly, if Xiaojun cannot play even 1% of the role during the test, the rules of the spirit world will not give
Xiaojun passed.
In addition, the income from the virtual store these days is stored in Li Beihai, and Li Beihai traded it to Bai Xiaowen. The total is close to 80,000 psychic points. Judging from the delivery documents, Zhang Bo is quite diligent in his work, and every day
Shipping is all on time.
Bai Xiaowen withdrew another batch of inventory from the territorial warehouse, stored it with Li Beihai, and then continued to be his hands-on shopkeeper.
However, when picking up the goods, Bai Xiaowen got some accumulated spiritual world rules prompt information on the permanent fiefdom order:
"Your territory manager, Viscount Cecilia, Lord of White Rock City, ordered to reclaim wasteland and add 9 new farmlands. This order will cost you 300 food and 240 gold coins."
"Your territory manager, Viscount Cecilia, Lord of White Rock City, ordered to upgrade the city wall defense facilities and add 8 new arrow towers. This order consumes food*200, gold coins*400, wood resources*800, and stone resources*1000.
,Iron resources*100.”
"Your territory manager, Viscount Cecilia, the Lord of White Rock City, led the troops to clean up the ruins of Laya Mountain Village and obtained gold coins*102, wood resources*65, stone resources*166, and iron resources*95. We have no allies in this expedition.
If a person is killed, food*300 and gold coins*300 will be consumed.”
"Your territory manager, Viscount Cecilia, Lord of White Rock City, led troops to clean up the ruins of Fort Dro, and obtained gold coins*1084, wood resources*301, and iron resources*106. During this expedition, 3 longbowmen were killed on our side.
It costs food*400 and gold coins*430."
"Your territory manager..."
Bai Xiaowen read through the reminder information accumulated in the fiefdom order, and couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised. Laya Mountain Village and Droburg were both territories demarcated by Bai Xiaowen's fiefdom order, but they had already been occupied by wandering zombie groups.
As a result, after Cecilia stabilized the defense of White Rock City, she attacked decisively, clearing out several zombie settlements from near to far, bringing back a lot of supplies, and also broadened the scope of White Rock City's control.
Reclaiming wasteland can increase food.
Moreover, as a former lord (this refers to status rather than template), Cecilia is not only good at fighting, but also has considerable experience in how to develop the territory. Matters such as reclamation and city building are all handled in an orderly manner.
From the lord's console, Bai Xiaowen could see that the territory's gold coins, food, timber resources, stone resources and other material reserves were growing steadily.
In addition to the lack of progress in commercial trade due to the blockage, other data, including prosperity and livability, have also improved.
"Originally, I thought that I needed to worry about the development of the territory... But now it seems that I only need to be responsible for calling 666?"
Bai Xiaowen sincerely felt that he was lucky. Without the support of Cecilia, a female lord, even if he got this permanent fiefdom, how much could he do? The income would inevitably be greatly reduced, so that the territory would become more and more desolate.
Adding up the psychic points earned by the virtual shop during this period, Bai Xiaowen's total psychic points exceeded 200,000. It is said that he does not panic when he has money. Bai Xiaowen is now very stable. He is no longer distracted and is exercising
At the same time, we will devote our energy to searching for information about the Lake of the Dead and make sufficient preparations.
Finally, the opening date of Lake of the Dead has arrived.
On this day, many Awakened students from Jinghai University got up early. Off-road vehicles formed a convoy and drove along the road toward the Lake of the Dead.
Lake of the Dead is located in the Jianghai Division, 150 kilometers away from the Jinghai Base City.
We did not encounter any dangers along the way, only a few mutant beasts. Seeing the convoy, they did not take the initiative to attack. Like the last rat tide, they did not appear.
According to Yan Xiaoxin, as New Year's Day approaches, the country has begun cleaning up the main roads between various base cities again, which is why it is so peaceful.
Bai Xiaowen has also heard of this.
Cleaning up the main roads between various base cities is done by the state allocating land and handing it over to Class A guilds in various places, and organizing capable awakened people. For example, the Giant God Guild in Jinghai Base City is responsible for the tasks from Jinghai City to Jiangnan City.
Main road cleaning project in Jinling City.
Small guilds like the Super God Guild can only apply to clear less dangerous auxiliary roads near the base city.
Naturally, each guild will not clean the roads for free. The state will allocate funds and clearly mark the prices of each road section. After the guilds complete the cleaning and receive acceptance, the corresponding funds, of course in the form of power points, will be traded to the corresponding guild.
person in charge.
Funds for road cleaning come from various sources, mainly from freight and taxes on shipments from various virtual markets. This is also a relatively healthy operating model that has been formed after a hundred years of development.
Therefore, large and small guilds are still very active in cleaning roads every quarter and every year, and the bidding competition for various road sections is also fierce. Of course, it is basically impossible for small guilds to bid for important road sections, because the Awakened
The association also depends on the strength of the bidding guild, and the bid is not given to whoever wants less power points.
Without monsters blocking the road, the cross-country convoy drove for three hours and arrived at the Upside Down Mountain where Lake of the Dead is located.
Upside Down Mountain is also a famous place. This mountainous area may be due to the excessive Yin Qi. The sky is always covered with clouds, making it very cold and desolate. After entering the mountainous area, the north-south direction of the compass will be completely opposite, east-west, north-south.
reverse.
This is also the origin of the name Upside Down Mountain.
Experienced awakeners will deliberately move in the opposite direction to the compass, and they will be able to travel smoothly.
"This is the Lake of the Dead in Upside Down Mountain." Yan Xiaoxin said.
The convoy stopped at the outskirts of Upside Down Mountain, because the interior of the mountainous area was too rugged for even off-road vehicles to drive in. The group followed Yan Xiaoxin and several other leading teachers and trekked all the way until they arrived at the central area of Upturning Mountain, the Lake of the Dead.
The area of Lake of the Dead is not large, it looks more like a pool of water, about the size of two football fields.
The water in the pool is light green, with a thin layer of mist steaming on the surface.
"The lake water is so cold." Li Shuyi put her hand into the lake water, and then quickly retracted it.
Bai Xiaowen read the information about previous expeditions to the Lake of the Dead and said: "Actually, the temperature of the Lake of the Dead is not low. The reason why it is cold is because the lake water is infected by the resentment of the dead and wronged souls. This cool feeling,
It directly affects people's psyche rather than their nerves, and is more like an illusion."
Someone has done experiments on the water of Lake Necromantic, and the temperature shown by the thermometer is very normal, even higher than the temperature of ordinary lake water.
In fact, the lake in front of you is not a real treasure space.
The treasure land of Lake of the Dead is an independent space in itself, just like the Great Rift Valley of Broken Ridge Mountain. There is only a crack portal connecting to the earth.
The space portal here is at the bottom of the lake.
Several teams from other universities in the Jianghai Division have already arrived, and now several teams came over to communicate with the Jinghai University team.
"You Jinghai University has a powerful figure this time, and even Qi Ruifeng is no match. Now, Jinghai University is finally about to turn around in the CUAAA league," Wang Jin, the captain of Xuhuai University, sighed and said, "Unlike us, there is no
Qualified for the national competition.”
The teams from Tongjiang University and Suhang University also expressed their feelings.
No one showed hostility towards Bai Xiaowen. Everyone knew very clearly that Bai Xiaowen's strength was no longer on the same level as everyone else, not even Qi Ruifeng. The throne of the Jianghai Division had changed hands.
Moreover, the qualifying rounds of the CUAAA League have passed, and there is no need to fight anymore. Now that we are about to enter the Lake of the Dead to explore, it is right to say hello in advance and establish a good relationship.
Even the team from Jinling University came over, but without Jiang Yi. It’s not that Jiang Yi has already lost if he doesn’t participate in the Exploration Qualifying Tournament of Lake of the Dead, and there’s no point in hiding his strength anymore. It’s just that Jiang Yi can’t save his face, so he simply
Left in his car.
It is worth mentioning that in the Jinling University team, Bai Xiaowen also saw an acquaintance, Qiao Qi, a young man who was rumored to have a mysterious background.
Bai Xiaowen heard about it. Last time Fu Hong brought Qiao Qi to Chaoshen Pharmacy to look for trouble. After Qiao Qi was scolded by Bai Xiaowen for a few times, he did not retaliate. Instead, he honestly participated in the auction and bought it at a high price.
The perfect bottle of strengthening potion that you want.
This time the two met again. Qiao Qi looked at Bai Xiaowen a little strangely, but his words contained a conciliatory meaning: "Hey, I bought the strengthening potion you made. It's not bad. My agility increased by 4
point."
Bai Xiaowen smiled and nodded: "Congratulations then."
Qiao Qi scratched her colorful hair: "Well... Actually, I didn't mean it last time. You are very capable... Well, my sister scolded me and said that you can't offend capable people.
Let me apologize to you. My sister also asked me to have less contact with Fu Hong..."
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said: "Then I really want to thank your sister. There is no need to apologize, and there is no need to mention the past."
Qiao Qi was probably instigated by Fu Hong before he came to the Super God Pharmacy to cause trouble last time. In the final analysis, the root cause of this incident was still Fu Hong, and it was caused by the old grudge between the Giant God Guild and the Super God Guild.
Qiao Qi is willing to reconcile, so of course Bai Xiaowen has to give him this face. After all, there should be a strong force behind Qiao Qi. One more friend means one more path. Even if you can't be friends, try not to get involved in conflicts of temper.
become an enemy.
The Jiangnan University team did not come to participate in the exchange. All team members, from Qi Ruifeng on down, seemed to be holding back their energy.
Of course, Bai Xiaowen didn't put on any airs and just chatted with the captains from other universities in a normal manner.
Everyone talked about the opening of the Space Portal in Lake of the Dead. The size of the space portal can now accommodate junior awakened people to enter. However, awakened people above level 4 cannot enter yet. It is estimated that they will have to wait until tomorrow when the space portal reaches its maximum size.
