Chapter 97: In the midst of thousands of troops
Chapter 97: In the midst of thousands of troops
That strand of long hair falls down.
In the courtyard, it was so quiet that you could clearly hear a pin drop. All the Seven Star Tower masters were staring at Wu Yuan..
No one dares to move.
Everyone was frightened by this knife.
Lord Ma, who had always seemed indifferent, saw his hair falling down from in front of him, his pupils also shrank, and a trace of fear flashed through him involuntarily..
God！
Although he is not a top expert, let alone among the people, in terms of strength, there are still two or three hundred people on the list..
Otherwise, how can we suppress a group of arrogant soldiers under our command?？
But Wu Yuan’s sword！
It was incredibly fast. It can be said that if Wu Yuan had wanted to kill him just now, his head would have already fallen to the ground..
A full breath of time.
“Ahem.”
Only then did Master Ma regain his composure, his laughter concealing his fear: "Senior Qianshan is joking, your strength is certainly enough to take on a five-star mission..”
“Hidden Deacon, show the mission list to Senior Qianshan." Louzhu Ma could not help but change his name to "Senior"’.
obviously.
Wu Yuan's demonstrated strength is much higher than his status as a 'Dark Sword' on the list of people..
Not the kind of top player who is at the bottom of the pile.
Such people, looking at thousands of miles of Jiangzhou, there are only twenty or thirty people.！
“Yes." A master in the courtyard said in a low voice..
Whoosh! In a flash, he rushed into a nearby room and quickly took out a file..
Presented to Wu Yuan.
“Senior, please look at the last page. There are two five-star missions." Lord Ma said softly: "There are very few five-star missions. Firstly, there are only so many five-star assassination targets in Jiangzhou, and secondly, the price is very high. , not something ordinary forces can withstand.”
“plus time limit.”
Wu Yuan nodded slightly, flipped through the file, and turned directly to the last page..
There are two five-star tasks posted on it.
first task.
“'Wu Yuan', a disciple of Yunwu Hall of Hengyun Sect, is number one in the "Jiangzhou Genius List". He is only sixteen years old and should be a second-rate master. Kill him; this mission is a five-star mission..
Mission reward: five million taels of silver, or two and a half million merit points.
Requirement: The target must be killed before September 3226 of the Eastern Wu Calendar. You can use all means to kill the target.！”
At first glance, it seems like an easy task.
“Kill Wu Yuan？”
Wu Yuan said softly: "This Wu Yuan is the one who has become famous in Jiangzhou in the past two years.？”
“Yes, it turns out that the seniors already know his name, so you should understand how high his talent is." Lord Ma nodded and said: "His personal strength is not worth mentioning..”
“However, he has been practicing on Yunshan Mountain. Yunshan is the home base of Hengyun Sect, and he must be heavily protected. If he wants to sneak into Yunshan Mountain to attack and kill, he will naturally take great risks. It is impossible for a first-rate master to succeed, so it is set as 'Five-star mission'." Master Ma said.
“I didn’t expect that this kid is quite valuable." Wu Yuan said calmly..
“For a five-star mission, the reward is at least one million taels of silver. This five million taels of silver is indeed very high." Louzhu Ma continued..
“However, you are in Yunshan City, you dare to take on this kind of task, are you not afraid that the Hengyun Sect will come to you? "Wu Yuan glanced at him.
“Not afraid！”
“Not only our family, the Jiusha Mansion also has this mission, and even some second-rate dark organizations are secretly keeping an eye on Wu Yuan." Lord Ma smiled and said: "There are also many sects such as the Jin Empire and Guiyu Sect, who are also keeping an eye on Wu Yuan. looking at him.”
“He dies！”
“Hengyun Sect can't find out who it is at all." Lord Ma said: "Just like you, senior, if you accept this task and it is completed by other forces, you can also come to me to receive the reward. After all, it is difficult for us to confirm whether it was done by you. Finish.”
“As long as Wu Yuan dies, the mission will be completed.”
Wu Yuan nodded slightly.
So crazy！
His eyes moved down and landed on the second task..
“In the Hengshan Mansion of the Jin Dynasty, in the area near Yunshan Mansion, there is stationed an elite army of ten thousand people, the "Sixth Army of the Eastern Expedition". The general in charge of the army is named "Wang Xiaohe". He has the strength of a top expert. Kill him; this mission is "Five Stars". Task’.
Mission reward: six million taels of silver, or three million merit points.
Requirement: Be sure to kill before June of 3226 in the East Bu Calendar. You can use all means to kill the target.！”
“This goal is somewhat interesting." Wu Yuan said softly..
“Wang Xiaohe, who has been the commander of the army before, just returned from the Holy Capital of the Jin Empire this year to report on his duties. Since he is not a local expert in Jiangzhou, he is not listed on the list. His strength is between 60 and 90 on the list." Mr. Ma Louzhu. Roughly speaking: "His personal strength is only secondary. The key is the Sixth Army.’.”
“This is one of the eight most elite field legions of the Jin Empire stationed in Jiangzhou.！”
“All of them are martial arts masters or above, and all of them are first-rate masters." Lord Ma sighed with emotion: "With more than a thousand first-rate masters, there are naturally many second-rate and first-rate masters..”
“The military formation is tight！”
“It can be said that if you go to assassinate Wang Xiaohe, once he is trapped in the army, even the top masters will die easily." Master Ma said.
Wu Yuan nodded lightly.
Sixth Army？
“I took over the task of assassinating Wang Xiaohe." Wu Yuan said calmly..
“Really? "Lord Ma was shocked..
“if not? I, Qianshan, have never completed a task? "Wu Yuan said calmly: "Why, you can't pick it up?？”
“Haha, of course I can take it.”
Louzhu Ma hesitated and said: "However, Senior Qianshan, when it comes to tasks, it seems that you have not completed the assassination mission of Blood Wolf Gang leader 'Blood Wolf Wushan' more than a year ago..”
Wu Yuan was stunned.
Forgot about this.
“I'm not blaming senior." Lord Ma said: "It's just that you didn't complete the assassination mission on time. According to the rules, the corresponding star points will be deducted..”
“Just deduct it as you like." Wu Yuan said calmly..
star point？
Wu Yuan didn't care. He didn't pursue becoming a six-star assassin or a seven-star assassin in Qixing Tower..
Lord Ma was stunned.
“Senior Qianshan, may I need the corresponding information?？”
Lord Ma said: "Because the reward exceeds one million taels of silver, even if you complete the task, the maximum amount will be only one hundred thousand taels of silver.".”
If you choose the information in the Seven-Star Building and the five-star mission or below, one-tenth of the reward will be deducted.
For five-star missions and above, one hundred thousand taels will be deducted.
“Okay, give me one." Wu Yuan nodded and said calmly: "However, if I feel that the information is not worth it, don't blame me for falling out..”
“When seniors see it, they will think it is worth it." Mr. Ma waved his hand..
Immediately.
The two of them dodged at the same time and rushed into the house. This time they waited longer, a full quarter of an hour..
Just now someone came out with a dossier in hand.
Wu Yuan took it.
“Now that we've discussed the mission, it's time to talk about the rewards." Wu Yuan glanced at Building Master Ma, and then at the many masters in the courtyard: "Do you have any treasures that can be exchanged for three million merit points?？”
This is not one or two hundred thousand merit points..
Three million merit points！
As a shady dark organization, treasures worth millions of taels of silver dare to be placed here casually.？
Even if there are, they will most likely be stored separately to avoid being served in one pot..
“It depends on what treasures the seniors need.”
Lord Ma said: "Most of the important treasures are kept at the headquarters on weekdays. Only after the task is completed will a time be agreed upon and specially delivered..”
“Fifty drops of ancient immortal dew." Wu Yuan said softly..
Lord Ma’s pupils shrank.
“Within ten days, I will complete the task." Wu Yuan said calmly: "Within two months, I will hand in the task..”
“I hope you have prepared treasures when I come, but don’t let me down.”
Whoosh！
Wu Yuan was as fast as a bolt of lightning and rushed out of the courtyard in an instant.
A few times, they disappeared without a trace..
Only the last words were left, which echoed in the courtyard: "If I am disappointed, the consequences will be serious.".”
The sound gradually fades away.
More than ten masters in the courtyard looked at each other, no one dared to speak for fear of angering their landlord..
quite a while.
“Everyone, please go down first." Mr. Ma slowly spoke..
“yes！”
“Walk! "More than a dozen Seven-Star Tower masters dispersed one after another as if they had been granted amnesty..
Soon, the only person left in the courtyard was Mr. Ma..
At this time.
A figure slowly walked out of the shadows.
He has a stooped figure, ragged clothes, and is less than 1.7 meters tall. He looks like a poor old man begging on the roadside..
“Master." Master Ma said respectfully..
“I'm no match for him." The rickety old man's voice was hoarse..
Master Ma was shocked and lost his voice: "How is that possible? Uncle, you are the sixteenth master on the list.？”
He can't believe it.
This rickety old man is his biggest support in this state-level branch of the Seven Star Tower..
Without the support of the old man, how could he have secured his position as the poster?.
In the eyes of Lord Ma.
Unless you are a master, even the top ten masters may not be able to survive under your master..
Because, the rickety old man is an assassin！
An assassin who frightens countless experts in Jiangzhou！
“Just now, I was hiding in the darkness, changed direction twice, and had the idea of taking action." The rickety old man said softly: "But the perception of Qianshan is extremely sharp, and the fingertips of my right hand kept moving, always pointing in my direction..”
“The moment I was about to take action, I saw a cold light passing through his fingertips.”
“He is good at throwing knives！”
“As long as I take action, his flying knife will definitely shoot out immediately." The rickety old man shook his head slightly: "Just based on the knife he used, I have no chance of blocking it..”
“His knife.”
“It's not for you, it's for me.”
“Just tell me, don't act rashly. If you do, you may die." The rickety old man glanced at Lou Zhu Ma: "I may not die, but you will definitely die..”
this moment.
Louzhu Ma feels his neck is chilly.
He didn't expect that the two top masters had already secretly clashed for a round, and that he was on the verge of life and death..
“Master, what should we do now? "Lord Ma even asked.
“The strength of this hidden sword is very terrifying, and it is obviously inconsistent with the intelligence we collected." The rickety old man shook his head slightly: "Now, it is impossible to confirm whether he has improved so rapidly in more than a year, or whether he has been hiding his strength before..”
“If I just hid my strength before, it would be okay！”
“What if it was improved this year? That would be terrible." The rickety old man said softly: "However, his fighting skills should be comparable to those of the Grandmaster..”
“Grandmaster? "Lord Ma lost his voice..
“It's hard to say." The rickety old man shook his head and said, "But there is only one thing. Don't mess with these Qianshan..”
“Shangqi Headquarters.”
“Wait for the chief poster to make a decision. If you want to take the Chujiang Order, send the Grand Master here..”
“Haha, all forces want the Chujiang Order, but how can it be obtained easily if it falls into the hands of such a master? "The rickety old man shook his head..
Send master master？
Lord Ma’s pupils shrank.
Although the Seven Star Tower is spread across thirteen states in the world, there are only a few masters in total.？
Besides, several of them are affiliated with the outer building.
There's no way to order them, and I don't even know their whereabouts..
The real masters in the building can only be counted among the five fingers..
The key is, how proud are the masters? All of them are veterans’.
Even the chief building owner of the Seven Star Building cannot force the masters in the building to do anything..
“If the chief poster is unable to send a master master." The rickety old man glanced at Lord Ma: "Then wait for the news..”
“Once Wang Xiaohe dies, let the main building send fifty drops of ancient immortal dew.”
“I'm an old man." "I don't want to fight with a master who is close to a master." After saying that, the rickety old man stepped into the shadows..
Disappeared without a trace.
……
In a sparsely populated street.
Wu Yuan walked slowly, reading the dossier in his hand with the help of the faint light on the roadside..
Each word was written down quickly.
“Just now, the top master hidden in the darkness should be the 16th-ranked 'Shadow Thorn Mogou'." Wu Yuan thought while flipping through the files..
If it were two years ago.
Wu Yuan has just touched the 'situation control' level, so he may not be able to detect the other party..
But now Wu Yuan？
More than a year of training in Yunshan has resulted in a completely reborn improvement. No matter what environment you are in, you can basically integrate into it instantly..
Melt into the darkness! blend into the wind！
Adjust as the environment changes.
It can be said that when Wu Yuan was in awe, the rickety old man's concealment skills were nothing but a joke in front of him.！
as clear as a lightbulb.
Just don't do anything.
Take action？
“I would like to compete against the top players in the fan rankings to see how big the gap is." Wu Yuan was not afraid..
Perhaps there will still be a gap in physical fitness, but it is no longer insurmountable..
Along the way, Wu Yuan was quite leisurely.
“This Wang Xiaohe, the mission requires that he must be killed before six months." Wu Yuan thought: "Is this mission issued by our Hengyun Sect? It was released by King of Baijiang？”
“Or, it was the internal hatred within the Jin Empire.？”
Since the time is limited, there must be a reason.
The reward to the assassin alone amounted to six million taels of silver, and the employer behind it probably paid tens of millions of taels of silver.！
This is a very terrifying wealth.
Generally speaking, one has to be a Grand Master to have any hope of mobilizing such huge resources..
Why are there so few five-star missions?？
An important reason is that the asking prices of Jiusha Mansion and Qixing Tower are too high..
There are very few employers who can post tasks.
“However, no matter what the reason is, it doesn't matter." Wu Yuan's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and he closed the file: "Killing him is the most important thing..”
why？
The Sixth Army of the Jin Empire and the Eastern Expedition were the main force in the Battle of Hengshan City. Wu Yuan's father died in the battle at Hengshan City..
Wang Xiaohe has served as the commander-in-chief of the Sixth Army Corps for more than ten years..
in short.
Wang Xiaohe and Wu Yuan are enemies of killing their father.！
When he thought of his father's death, Wu Yuan felt an uncontrollable impulse and murderous intention in his heart, and he wanted to kill him quickly..
He understands in his heart.
This is the original memory and emotion.
The two of them are not so much Wu Yuan's time-travel replacement as they are fusions, but Wu Yuan's consciousness from his previous life dominates..
“The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable." Wu Yuan said silently in his heart..
If you kill the opponent, you can also get the bloody mist, and you can also get the sky-high reward of the Seven Star Tower..
If he could really get fifty drops of the Ancient Immortal Dew, Wu Yuan would no longer have to worry about resources for a long time to come..
Another point.
“Ten years have passed since the Battle of Hengshan, and the Jin Empire has been reinforcing its troops." Wu Yuan's thoughts swirled: "It was only because of the battle between Yu Taishang and the Eastern King of the Jin Dynasty that the Jin Dynasty temporarily stopped its troops and stopped attacking..”
But this kind of peace cannot last.
The Jin Dynasty was at its peak, with many masters and masters.
As for the Hengyun Sect and Grandmaster Buyu, as they get older and older, their strength will inevitably become weaker and weaker..
A short period of three to five years, a long period of ten years.
The war will resume.
In the last war, the main battlefield was in Hengshan Mansion..
Next time, the Jin army will definitely point directly at Yunshan Mansion！
“Killing one of their top masters can disrupt their entire army." Wu Yuan flicked his fingertips towards the file..
Wow~ A strange force swept across.
The entire dossier was shattered into countless tiny scraps of paper, flying in the air..
“Every time the strength of the Jin Empire is weakened, the possibility of our Hengyun Sect's victory in future wars will increase." Wu Yuan quickened his pace..
Heading towards the Star Tower.
Unknowingly, Wu Yuan had developed a sense of belonging to the Hengyun Sect, not only because of the sect's contribution, but also because of his relatives and clan members.！
……The sky will be bright.
Qunxing Building, Yunshan Branch Building, fifth floor.
“Senior." The young man in black robe said softly: "This is the magic weapon level personal soft armor that you customized a year ago. Please give it a try, senior..”
box opened.
A pair of soft armor that is completely dark and has no luster is revealed. It is simple and extraordinary..
soft armor.
This was a year ago when Wu Yuan came down from the mountain and was at home..
Secretly came to Qunxing Tower, and used the third-grade divine weapon order left by the 'Ancient Ji' to customize a piece of soft armor..
A year later, today, I just came to pick it up.
“Wow~" Wu Yuan grabbed the box and immediately, like running water, the soft armor was worn on his body in the blink of an eye..
The joint between scales and armor is slightly elastic..
fits well！
Soft armor only protects the vital parts of the torso, and its defensive power is much weaker than the heavy armor that protects the whole body..
The advantage is flexibility.
“Yes, it is worthy of being a divine weapon-level soft armor." Wu Yuan held the edge of the soft armor with his hand and exerted a slight force, and more than 200,000 kilograms of force poured in..
motionless.
It is indeed a divine weapon material！
“It does not affect your flexibility in combat at all." Wu Yuan was very satisfied with this pair of soft armor..
Products produced by Qunxinglou must be high-quality products. This statement is true..
For real masters, protecting the vital points is enough, flexibility is the most important thing.
“OK！”
“I'm leaving." Wu Yuan stood up, dropped the token with a wave of his hand, and quickly left the Star Tower.
Just as Wu Yuan expected, Qunxing Tower sent out a spy’.
It's a pity that he was easily thrown away.
When the first ray of dawn comes on in the morning, roosters crow one after another in the city..
The city guard opened the city gate.
Following the surging crowd, Wu Yuan left Yunshan Mansion.
……
The evening of the second day after leaving Yunshan City.
Nanmeng Mansion is located away from the city, on a barren mountain less than ten miles away from Tianjiadu..
Here, there are lonely graves.
“Compared to more than a year ago, it seems that many more seats have been added." Wu Yuan has such a good memory.？
With a quick glance, I can roughly determine which are the new graves in the past year or so..
Which are the old graves again?.
After a moment of identification, Wu Yuan came to the target..
Then - dig a grave！
With Wu Yuan's terrifying power, after just ten breaths, the entire earthen grave was dug up, revealing the clothes that had begun to rot underneath..
tear apart！
A silver gun that was as bright as new was revealed! It was the magic weapon buried here after Wu Yuan killed Chen Tangru before..
take out.
“Good baby." Wu Yuan held the three points with one hand, pouring hundreds of thousands of kilograms of force into it, and swung it with all his strength, the spear pierced the sky like an arrow shooting out.！
The tip of the spear tears through the sky.
As fast as lightning, but without the slightest whistling sound, as if completely integrated into the wind.
The air can't stop it at all.
“He is worthy of being a magic weapon. He can easily withstand the explosion of hundreds of thousands of kilograms of force, so he can fight happily." Wu Yuan smiled: "There is also a magic weapon-level inner armor for body protection..”
everything's ready！
“It's time to go to Hengshan Mansion." Wu Yuan quickly restored the tomb and did not stop any longer, counting all the items..
Turn into a stream of light, and it can be hundreds of meters away in one flash.
By the hazy night.
disappear into the vast earth.
……
Hengyun Sect was established in Yunshan Prefecture.
For a hundred years, he has been recruiting disciples and cultivating power in Yunshan Mansion and Hengshan Mansion. It can be said that he has a deep foundation..
All this changed ten years ago.
The army of the Jin Dynasty was directed towards them. In one battle, they captured Hengshan Mansion. It was as powerful as Grandmaster Bu Yu, but they only ordered the Jin Dynasty to stop their troops, not to retreat..
ten years.
Hengshan Mansion is still in chaos, and the Jin Empire's army is stationed. How can the Hengyun Sect be willing to withdraw? Always preparing for counterattack.
The two sides have been secretly entangled with each other.！
nature.
On the nearly thousand-mile border between Hengshan and Yunshan, both sides have stationed heavy troops to prevent unexpected events..
The Sixth Army of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was stationed at the border.
Tens of thousands of elite soldiers camped close to the mountains and rivers. It was located in a high position, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack..
Today, night falls.
The large tent in the center of the Sixth Legion was guarded by groups of guards, and a large number of sergeants patrolled back and forth..
In the big tent.
“General, is the Ninth Prince really coming? "A general wearing armor said in a low voice: "Isn't he in charge of 'Linjiang City', and is he just a nominal commander?？”
“The Ninth Prince is one of the most talented princes among His Majesty's sons. He has extraordinary strength at a young age." A burly man with a long beard wearing heavy armor sat on the main seat: "The wrists are also powerful..”
“But how can the eldest prince and the third prince be vegetarians?？”
“The eldest prince is conquering Yuanzhou in the north, and the third prince is in charge of Nanzhou in the south." The tall and bearded man said in a low voice: "Although the ninth prince has the support of the Eastern King and is the legitimate son of the queen, if he wants to stand out, he must immediately stand out. Make great contributions！”
“I, the Jin Dynasty, put military merit first.”
“Going eastward, Hengyun Sect is the first hard nut.”
“How could the Ninth Prince not want to knock it off? "The burly man with long beard said: "Although he is only the commander-in-chief in name, doesn't your Majesty not know?？”
“If you want to be a prince, you must set an example. You don't even dare to visit the frontiers in person. In the future, why should you become the ruler of the Holy Capital and control the tens of thousands of miles of our Jin Dynasty? "The burly man with long beard said: "But don't worry, the ninth prince will only be a laborer when he comes, and he will leave in a few days..”
General Pi couldn't help but nodded: "I understand, I will arrange it immediately.".”
soon.
When Pi was about to leave, only a burly and bearded man was left in the tent. He studied the map carefully and kept thinking..
suddenly.
“General Wang is really dedicated." A faint voice sounded..
