Zhan Yue Novel - Chapter 492
Chapter 492- Fire Monkey Forest
Blood Pond, main hall.
“His highness is just so sad.”
Senior Sister Yun held a silver flash with grape wine in it and her eyes were filled with helplessness, “To nurture the Black Dragon Soul he even let Elder Dragon get the Darkness God Hall. Now even Li Yang joined Elder Dragon…”
“I am not surprised that Li Yang did that.”
I said, “He is an ambitious person and now that he has become the young master and get the legacy. He will probably do what he wants in Black Castle. That was what he wanted so how would he give it up for King of Darkness~~~”
“Yes!”
Senior Sister Yun frowned. She wanted to say something but stopped.
“Senior Sister.” I looked at her and said, “Actually I think we should avoid it. Black Castle isn’t safe for us now. Li Yang is greedy and cruel. Once he gets the Darkness Dragon power, I am afraid…”
“Afraid he would do something to me?” Senior Sister frowned and asked.
“Yes.”
I nodded, “After all, you always treat him badly and such a person will definitely take revenge once he gets power.”
“No.”
Senior Sister shook her head, “Elder Hall is on Elder Dragon’s side. Although the two generals are loyal but they are unable to battle Elder Dragon. Only I can step out to support King of Darkness. If I leave, he will be alone and Elder Dragon will remove him.”
I frowned, “Since Senior Sister isn’t leaving then I won’t go either.”
“En, no matter what happens, we will take responsibility!”
…
After which, Senior Sister didn’t give me a quest. Darkness God Hall was silent and Li Yang was probably accepting Elder Dragon’s teachings. one had to say that Li Yang is a vicious and cunning person so he was a good fit with the Darkness Dragon’s personality. Elder Dragon is a firm and direct person. The moment Elder Dragon chose Li Yang, Black Castle was destined to change.
“Di!”
Right when I was feeling bored,
a message came from Ah Fei, “Brother, I reached level 8 inscription technique, I give you the recipe now? We can continue to level up the skill.”
“Okay, send it to me!”
“Okay.”
In the next second, a message was sent over–
Spirit Desolate Ink (Lv-8): Spirit Desolate Stone, Wind Flame Cinnabar, Celestial Jade Vine, Flame Crocodile Turtle Armor
…
Thus, I headed to Precious Treasure Pavilion and confirmed that they sold Wind Flame Cinnabar and Celestial Jade Vine. However, I had to search for the other two myself so I returned to Blood Pond.
“Yi?”
Yun Yue was confused, “Didn’t you just leave?”
“Asking about material…”
I laughed, “Senior Sister, Do you know about Spirit Desolate Stone?”
“Of course.”
She smiled, “Blood Dynasty and Xuanyuan Empire fought because of one mine and that led to a close to 200 thouand men war. In the end, the mine was destroyed.”
“Then… Then where can I get Spirit Desolate Stone?”
“Humans and Blood Dynasty cities all sell them.” She smiled, “But they are expensive. Apart from people of status, very few can afford this.”
“…”
I was speechless, “I don’t have much money so how can I get them without spending money?”
“Hm…”
She looked at me and smiled, “Junior Brother really likes to freeload?”
My face flushed red, “Senior Sister stop teasing me, I am just frugal!”
“What a frugal fellow!”
She burst out laughing, “Since you said that, you can head to the battlefield to test your luck, maybe you can find the mines. If you do, naturally the stones are endless there.”
“En, okay, where is it at?”
“In the south where Blood Dynasty and the human territory is connected known as Fire Monkey Forest. I don’t know the exact location, I only remember the name of the place.”
“That is enough!”
I laughed, “Thank you Senior Sister, I am going now!”
“Go then~~~”
…
I used the City Return Scroll and headed back to Winter Sun City.
“Shua!”
The moment I appeared there, Gu Ruyi held her staff and looked at me in shock, “Lu Li, didn’t Lin Xi say that you went to do a quest? Why aren’t you gone?”
“Things changed…”
I touched my nose, “Ah Fei’s inscription technique reached level 8 so I need to get materials for him.”
“Oh?”
Lin Xi came out of the potion shop and smiled, “You collected Ah Fei’s inscription materials in the past?”
“En.”
I nodded, “Apart from me, who else? His inscription technique materials can only be found at high-difficulty maps that were just released. As for relying on money, most of the materials hadn’t appeared so money couldn’t get them.”
“Hm…”
Lin Xi smiled, “But we can’t just let you go alone. So what materials do you need, we will help you collect.”
“Really?”
She pushed her chest forwards and stared, “Scoff, do you think I am lying to you?”
“Okay then.”
I nodded, “There is this material called Flame Crocodile Turtle Armor that I need to search but I haven’t got any news. You need to find it, is that okay?”
“Okay.”
She smiled, “Then I shall bring Ruyi and Mingxuan!”
“En!”
I smiled, “okay then, I am heading out.”
“Go then~~~”
I changed to my Paladin account and I appeared in front of Lin Xi. I jumped off the horse such that when Lin Xi looked at me, she was stunned. She just stared right at me.
“Yea?”
Shen Mingxuan suddenly appeared and she shook Lin Xi, “Why does she look like her soul is gone?”
Lin Xi lowered her head and her eyes were a little complicated, “I thought back to the unhappy things that happened in the past. Now that I saw this account, it feels different, I just… Feel a little sad, after all, we had misunderstandings…”
“What?”
Shen Mingxuan smiled, “Do you still have trauma from his account? Why not just fight. The Assassin account is strong but the Paladin isn’t… Moreover, Lu Li’s two accounts are quite good.”
“Oh?” Lin Xi was shocked.
Shen Mingxuan smiled, “One Lu Li, two happiness, what is not good about that?”
“Ah?”
Lin Xi stood there annoyed.
I laughed and left Winter Sun City, heading towards Blood Dynasty.
…
Half an hour later, I arrived at the pass and showed my Paladin account to be able to pass through.
Not long after, I switched to my shura account and entered White Cloak state. I disappeared into a ball of light which shocked the defending troops.
The moment I entered White Cloak state, I felt a sense of safety.
Head out!
I opened the map. This place was different from the north wall and it was the west of the human territory and Blood Dynasty. Fire Monkey Forest was not far away, just twenty minutes. This was so tough, to get one material I spent 50 minutes. Ah Fei really didn’t care about how tough it was on me.
Just like that, I headed west through the forest. After ten minutes, I heard horse hoof sounds. Many cavalries dashed past and they were all Blood Dynasty ones. They were in red armor and held flags. The horses were all good horses. In terms of combat strength, they weren’t any weaker than Winter Sun City’s Flame Army. No wonder Blood Dynasty could fight with Xuanyuan Empire for many years and wasn’t wiped out.
Blood Dynasty was even able to gain benefits from the cracks and increase their strength to the point that they could crush Black Castle.
This was a patrolling cavalry squad. Their gazes were sharp and most of them had cultivation. One of them said solemnly, “Yesterday some humans came to chop trees. Listen to me, if you meet them then kill them, no need to ask for the reason!”
“Yes sir!”
They left into the distance.
…
I held my daggers. I didn’t bother about them and continued west.
I passed many forests and continued forwards. I started to enter Blood Dynasty land. When I clicked on the map, I saw that Fire Monkey Forest was dozens of miles from the human border. In the past, humans were able to have a battle with Blood Dynasty here. This meant that the current Human empire was much weaker than before.
No worries, let’s take it slow. Players would be a key to this!
Not long later, the greenery was replaced by red and one could see many red leaves on the ground. On the trees were red monkeys jumping around. Some could spit out flames and their palms had fire wrapped around them. These were level 105 Unique grade monsters. They weren’t good for experience so I just went around them!
After entering, I started to search for the mine. This was destined to be a long and hard process.
