Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

Chapter 654: Employment mission failed, parted ways

As long as King Ragnar can escape smoothly and return to the imperial city to regain power.

Then Zong Shen can go to the imperial city to find him at any time to fulfill the promise.

But one thing must be emphasized, that is, according to the distance scale of the mainland, it is not easy for Zong Shen to go back to the imperial city of the Nord Kingdom...

The fastest way is to plan the direction and path through the giant city-level teleportation array and then teleport step by step.

Now he could only pray that King Ragnar's life would not die.

After all, he did his best.

In order to ensure that he knows what he knows, a large amount of data is displayed in front of his field of vision.

Including four dynamically updated golden circle coordinates, there are two remaining coordinates worth exploring.

The strategy module is like a conscientious employee, providing him with detailed information. .

It is precisely because of these information advantages that Zong Shen was able to successfully help King Ragnar escape from the predicament. Although the result has not yet been settled, the situation is always much better than the previous crisis.

Zong Shen himself also managed to escape, delaying a lot of time for him.

In fact, if there are those sixth-level Nord royal guards around, just let him deal with Gurta and Le Tai, with these few status skills, plus his endless props and methods, he can definitely fight a battle!

Nagulta is more than three meters tall, obviously of alien blood, and his strength attributes must be off the charts.

But no matter how strong his strength is, it is impossible for him to be higher than a giant dragon of the same level.

If Zong Shenruo uses the power magic skill to increase his strength, then transform.

In a short period of time, you can make your strength attribute reach as many as five or six hundred points.

Plus the attack gain after transformation and the corresponding characteristics, such as the chaos damage of the demon transformation.

The holy light damage of the transformation of the holy spirit, and the percentage of damage-free effect.

It should be no problem to deal with two epic mercenaries.

It's just that he hasn't had time to observe the attributes of the two of them. The above is purely Zong Shen's analysis based on his previous combat experience, and the possibility of encountering hard problems cannot be ruled out.

After all, in the past few days, he has basically been mixed in the one-third of an acre of land within the range.

Haven't even been to the giant city yet.

The epic strength standard he is referring to now is the French cousin Gilles de Ray and those French cousins.

Although this time he couldn't turn the clouds upside down and occupy an absolute advantage like in previous battles.

But being able to retreat from the siege of hundreds of sixth-level Nord royal guards and two epic-level mercenaries is enough to prove his strength.

Most importantly, this time he did not rely on any subordinates or subjects.

Completely alone.

It was also a novel adventure for him.

"Hmph, maybe there will be a chance to meet those two guys in the future."

"When the time comes, I will definitely let them see how powerful someone from my sect is!"

Zong Shen clenched his fists, it's not a pleasant thing to let people chase him away.

As the saying goes, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and one day his footsteps and influence will move to other regions of the mainland, and his strength will become stronger and stronger!

As a lord, he has a development speed and room for improvement that the aborigines can't imagine.

After he left the drilling machine, he jumped on the ground.

Immediately, a lot of floating soil fell from the gaps in the battle armor, leg armor, and helmet.

The floating soil piled up at the feet, and even formed a small pile.

Then, he took off his helmet and shook his head suddenly, shaking off the dust on his face and head.

"Bah bah bah!"

He spat out several mouthfuls of saliva with the color of yellow mud.

This is not over, he began to take off all the equipment on his body.

Only the underwear that has turned a khaki color remains.

Even inside his underwear, the foam almost covered his whole body.

Zong Shen, who was in the cockpit of the drilling machine just now, seemed to have been buried alive once.

After taking off his equipment, he used the strategy module to guard his surroundings.

Warn him of any danger.

After confirming the safety of the surrounding area, he also took off his hemp braided underwear.

There is still no one around here.

Coupled with the undulating ground of the rock base and the lack of grass around it, it looks even more lonely and desolate.

Taking advantage of this time, Zong Shen took out a large bucket filled with clean water from the storage compartment.

With brute force, he hugged her with both hands, and poured clear water directly over his head.

From his body, a large amount of brown mud mixed with a small amount of small stones turned into muddy water flowing from his body on the rock foundation, and then turned into a trickling stream, converging towards the low-lying place.

Zong Shen poured it three times in a row, and he didn't let out a breath until the clear water in the heavy bucket was drained.

Stretching out his hand to wipe his face, he immediately felt refreshed.

At first glance, the mud and dirt have been washed away.

But in fact, there were still a lot of fine grains of sand and dust left on his skin.

It is impossible to completely restore the cleanliness of the body by just relying on such rough washing.

It can only make do with it, but fortunately Zong Shen is not a pampered guy, just wash it off so that he doesn't feel uncomfortable.

He brushed his hair back with both hands to remove the water droplets from his hair.

Standing naked in this bird place really has an inexplicable sense of exile.

Sure enough, human beings can only feel honest with each other when they are not wearing clothes!

Zong Shen took out a set of hemp braided underwear and put it on again.

Then put on the armor and equipment covered with scabs.

After tidying up a bit, he walked to the side of the [Magic Power Drilling Machine] again.

Clean out the drill rig's cockpit and crawler chassis.

It took ten minutes before and after.

At this time, King Ragnar was already tens of kilometers away from him.

The positions of those two epic mercenaries overlapped with King Ragnar's.

It should be the use of speed-up or flight-type runes, and they can also accurately lock Ragnar's position.

But King Ragnar is not stupid, he is still driving the drilling machine at a depth of hundreds of meters underground.

No matter how fast those pursuers moved, there was always hundreds of meters of ground between them.

Mere distance is not what King Ragnar relies on.

He is underground, and the pursuit of soldiers on the ground is the key to King Ragnar's escape.

The space perception of those space mages cannot penetrate hundreds of meters of dirt and rocks.

It is impossible to accurately locate the [Shadow Wormhole] in the tunnel left by King Ragnar.

Second, they are not out of the realm of spatial disorder.

It's just that the degree of disorder in the location is lower than the previous area of ​​the Thorn Ball.

King Ragnar understands this very well, as long as he is seven or eight kilometers away, his dazzling storage items can be opened.

At that time, you can directly transfer from the high-level teleportation rune to the giant city where the rune anchor is located.

There are several teleportation runes in his hand that are comparable to the extreme distance of a giant city-level teleportation array.

That is to say, it can be transmitted up to 99999 kilometers away.

Each rune sets several anchor cities in different areas of the kingdom, ensuring that he can reach the anchor city anywhere in the kingdom as long as he activates the specified rune.

Without exception, these anchor cities are all royal cities under the complete control of the Lodbroke family.

"call…"

In fact, [Magic Energy Drilling Machine] is not suitable for working underground for a long time.

It is mainly used for constructive excavation and auxiliary excavation.

If you work in a relatively closed environment for too long, the biggest problem is oxygen.

What's more, the tunnel behind King Ragnar is gradually being closed.

A dozen or so Nord Hammerguards also shambled behind them.

"call!"

"Sandina, you are destined to pay the price for killing the king!"

"It was not your choice that the curse of the era fell on you."

"But after all, you still chose this step."

"It is imperative to rectify the kingdom, I will no longer be fettered by the era!"

Ragnar Lodbrock said through gritted teeth.

His face was as firm as stone carving.

Zong Shen is like a butterfly flapping its wings thousands of miles away, but his unintentional actions have had a major impact on the Nord Kingdom.

From Queen Sandina tearing her face, to King Ragnar's attack.

His appearance is like a hand flipping a road sign, completely changing the future of the Nord Kingdom.

The era change script about the kingdom of Nord will be rewritten.

Above the surface!

Gurta, Le Tai and Nord's royal guards were all surrounded by a ring of light blue wind elemental magic power.

This allowed them to keep flying at a low airspeed, and under the guidance of several space mages, they closely followed King Ragnar underground.

But all they can do is follow.

The reason is simple, they lack the means to dig quickly.

The hundreds of meters of formation between the surface and the tunnel where King Ragnar is located is like a natural moat that is insurmountable!

"Damn it, why don't you guys prepare some means of drilling into the ground?"

"Is this what you mean by infallibility?"

Gurta is a relatively impatient guy. After tracking for a while, he realized the problem, so he suddenly accelerated, and flew to the seventh-rank guard captain Langdon Wordsworth who was in charge of commanding the team, and asked him to blame him!

If the mission fails this time, their commission will also be wasted!

At this time, Gurta was very angry.

One is to complain about the incompetence of Sandina's loyal fighters.

Second, I regret that I have been fishing for too long.

If he and Le Tai had entered the arena earlier, they could have broken through the defensive circle of the Ax and Hammer Guards two minutes earlier.

Then let Le Tai deal with the old man of the magister, and he himself is responsible for restraining the king.

As long as those royal guards swarm up, King Ragnar can be subdued easily!

Fishing was originally a compulsory course for veteran mercenaries.

If you want to blame it, blame the person who killed it halfway.

They already understood that at the most critical moment of the siege.

The bombing formation that suddenly appeared in the sky, as well as the subsequent explosion of three fifth-order group magic, were all written by that person!

This led to the seventh-order magister Kiamko having the opportunity to burn his life to buy time.

At the same time, the drilling machine driven by the king is also very likely to be provided by that person.

It's just that they never figured out how Zongshen took out the drilling machine.

Even the king's storage space couldn't be opened, this guy who came out of nowhere was able to take out items!

From the perspective of the aborigines, it is really puzzling.

But these are not important, the result of failure is the most important.

Facing Gurta's questioning, Langdon Wordsworth's face hidden under the Nord Sunrise helmet immediately darkened.

"Is this how the two members of the Bloodfang Mercenary Corps perform their employment missions?"

"If you can take action earlier during the siege, I don't know that the king will have a chance to escape!"

Langdon Wordsworth possessed the seventh level of strength, which was also within the epic level according to the level division, but he was weaker than Gurta and Le Tai by half level.

He is a hero and a captain of the Nord Royal Guard.

Serve directly to Queen Sandina and accept her orders.

So when he faced Gurta, he didn't have the slightest fear. In fact, he was deeply dissatisfied with Gurta and Le Tai's inaction!

Facing Langdon Wordsworth's questioning, Gurta subconsciously wanted to get angry,

But at the next moment, a black figure flashed beside him, and Le Tai appeared and grabbed his arm, which made Gurta calm down a little.

The Bloodfang Mercenary Group is considered to be the most powerful and large-scale mercenary group in the Endless Continent.

Small mercenary regiments tend to guard against themselves, and even act against their employers and defect.

Those medium-sized mercenary groups and large mercenary groups are more concerned about reputation.

Failure to complete the employment target is considered a mission failure. If they attack the employer again, they will also be punished by the mercenary group once the news spreads.

It's just that the task fails, and it won't have much impact.

You just need to report the details.

Regarding these matters, the Bloodfang Mercenary Group has its own rules.

"snort!"

Gurta snorted coldly and didn't say much.

Le Tai on the side took the initiative to fly forward and said to Langdon Wordsworth.

"Then this is considered a failure of our mission!"

"In that case, Gurta and I will leave on our own!"

Regarding this, Langdon Wordsworth was noncommittal and continued on his way without saying a word, expressing his dissatisfaction with a tacit attitude.

Le Tai didn't care so much, and pulled Gurta to stop at the same place.

Watching Langdon Wordsworth continue to pursue with several hundred Nord royal guards.

They will keep chasing until King Ragnar disappears completely, even if the pursuit during this period is only in vain.

While they were chasing, another team of people would use the higher-level [Communication Crystal Tower] to transmit the news.

Then it was passed to Queen Sandina step by step.

The message can be delivered within half an hour at the fastest.

That's the speed at which messages are delivered.

Queen Sandina was able to modify the next plan in time after receiving the news.

In such a vast kingdom scale, the general information transmission is from the village to the state city and then to the giant city.

Whether it is a magic letter or a flying monster, the speed and transmission distance are limited.

Even through the teleportation array, it will take a lot of time to transit in the designated giant city.

The fastest way is [Communication Crystal Tower].

There is one in Zongshen's territory, but it is only of the fourth-order rarity quality.

The maximum communication radius is 1000 kilometers.

The fifth-order [Communication Crystal Tower] can communicate within a radius of 10,000 kilometers.

The sixth-order [communication crystal tower] can communicate within a radius of 100,000 kilometers. When converted into the maximum distance, it is infinitely close to 200,000 kilometers. There will be a few minutes of delay in communication, but compared to other methods, it is still the most efficient in communication. !

As for the seventh-order [Communication Crystal Tower], it has not been researched yet.

The radial distance scale of millions of kilometers is really amazing.

And the higher the level of the crystal tower, the more difficult it is to build.

This can already be called the pinnacle skill of mainland human magic energy communication technology.

Even on Earth, communication at a scale of hundreds of thousands of kilometers is at the aerospace level.

After all, the distance from the earth to the moon is only 384,000 kilometers.

Looking at Endless Continent from this angle, it is indeed not an ordinary big...

A general kingdom will build a sixth-level and several fifth-level [communication crystal towers] to build a communication node centered on the imperial city.

Low-tier communication towers can be merged into higher-tier communication towers within range.

From this point of view, the [Communication Crystal Tower] in Endless Continent actually has a technical concept similar to that of a communication node. However, due to various reasons and influences, crystal communication will inevitably not be popularized and become an inclusive technology.

Therefore, as long as the king has not left this area, Queen Sandina can receive the news first.

After grasping the opportunity, even if King Ragnar finally returns to Sagson alive, she can escape unscathed, but the next civil war in the kingdom may be inevitable!

Le Tai and Gurta were suspended in place.

"After leaving the chaotic area, use the directional teleportation rune to go to the nearest bloodfang stronghold."

"Since the mission has failed, there is no need to stay here."

"Before the Xunfei effect on your body is over, just hurry up and get out of the chaotic zone."

"As long as we explain the situation, we should not be punished too harshly."

Le Tai inserted the **** long dagger back into the black scabbard at his waist, turned his head and said to Gurta.

His eyes were gloomy and indifferent like a poisonous snake that failed to hunt.

But Gurta, the big man who has always been impatient, closed his eyes instead, and felt silently.

After a few seconds, he opened his eyes, looked at Le Tai and said in a deep voice.

"The man stopped."

"The direction is to the northeast, thirty or forty kilometers away from here~lightnovelpub.net~ And he's not in this **** underground!"

"We're going to settle accounts with him now!"

Gurta swept the big ax around, carried it on his shoulder, and said aggressively.

Le Tai, who was on the side, heard the words, his eyes flashed with vicious light.

"Then use his head as a memorial to this failure!"

When it comes to killing and settling accounts, Le Tai's bloodthirsty nature is exposed.

In particular, Zong Shen is not underground, so they will not be blocked by the stratum.

In imprint induction, there is still a big difference between underground and above-ground targets.

Gurta and Le Tai, the two epic-level mercenaries, hit it off and decided to kill Zong Shen, the guy who interfered with their completion of the mission, to comfort the dissatisfaction and violence in their hearts!
