Chapter 528 The Moon Has Grown Bigger Again!
a whole day.
Chu Ling Shuang, along with Sissifu and other traveling merchants, made five trips in total, bringing back the five forces.
The leader of each faction is at least at the peak of the seventh rank.
After all, a once-in-a-century catastrophe could strike at any moment, and the night of the full moon is just around the corner.
Even experts at the fifth or sixth level wouldn't dare to wander around outside.
If I want to travel through the wilderness these next few days, I'll need at least a peak seventh-tier expert to be there for me.
"Everyone, you can freely trade any goods on Dragon City's commercial street!" After bringing these people into Dragon City, Chu Ling Shuang gave a brief introduction, allowing them to trade freely on the commercial street.
If you want to conduct a transaction worth millions, we can negotiate separately.
At this moment, on the third floor of the Dragon Gate Inn.
"hateful!"
The two elders of the Mechanized City looked down at the area below.
Both of them looked extremely pale and gloomy.
They had already received the message from Qin Tian and the others, and immediately guessed that it was Long Cheng who did it.
Qin Tian's men are still blocked by the abyss and the giant mountain, and it took them half a day to climb up.
Even if you make it to the top of the mountain, what about coming down?
By the time everyone has safely descended the mountain, it will probably be dark already!
"What do we do now?" the Second Elder asked with a dark expression.
Previously, he was in charge of the foreign trade of the city.
Therefore, he basically knew the Lord of Chongshan City and the people from those powerful forces below.
These people should have arrived at the city by now, where the two sides are discussing cooperation.
As long as the transactions with these people are successfully completed, the city of the mechanical city can recover some of its losses.
But now... before it even started, Longcheng has already snatched everyone away.
"What other options are there?" The First Elder shook his head with a bitter smile, his face equally grim.
They're using underhanded tactics to steal customers, and so is Longcheng.
Ultimately, where the customer goes depends entirely on their own abilities, and it's clear that we've lost again!
If they still don't know what's good for them, maybe...
The Earth Dragon Turtle's tail will land right on the Mechanical City next time!
Evening, inner city, city lord's mansion.
"Lord City Lord!"
Chu Ling Shuang handed Xiao Yu an A4 sheet of paper and excitedly reported today's results, "Today we brought together eleven forces of varying sizes, but most of them are forces with seventh-level experts in charge, and only one force has an eighth-level expert."
On their way to the Mechanized City, they had all encountered attacks by hordes of ferocious beasts, and all had suffered casualties...
"Oh, are they all this weak?" Xiao Yu was slightly surprised.
Chu Ling Shuang thought for a moment, then said with a solemn expression, "The forces around the Mechanized City are not all so weak. I heard that the city lords of three other major cities are eighth-level experts, and these forces seem to be even closer to the Mechanized City."
But... for some reason, those forces haven't arrived yet.
It's important to know that a force with an eighth-level expert in charge must have a fortune of at least tens of millions!
This is a super big client that Longcheng has been paying close attention to!
"Closer than other forces, yet they still haven't arrived?" Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes and asked, "Could they have already been intercepted by the Mechanized City and taken directly inside?"
"No!" Chu Ling Shuang said firmly.
“I’ve been keeping watch from the city wall, using binoculars to monitor the surrounding area for miles. All the forces have been intercepted in advance, but we haven’t been able to intercept a single force from the Mechanical City.”
"Something is indeed strange. Let's keep an eye on it," Xiao Yu instructed, and then stopped paying attention.
Instead, he looked at the red-haired girl beside him and asked, "How were the sales today?"
"It's incredibly tall! Look, brother!"
Honglian's ruby-red eyes were full of smiles.
He also handed a sheet of A4 paper to Xiao Yu.
"Nearly double? That's so much?" Xiao Yu was slightly surprised after just one glance.
It was less than eight million yesterday!
But today, it jumped directly to 1545 million yuan!
"The purchase of vegetables and plants such as corn and tomatoes by various forces is quite good. These should be finalized before they leave..." Honglian nodded slightly and explained, "because most forces have been attacked by ferocious beasts."
Moreover, when Ling Shuang led her people to the rescue, she used powerful crossbows, the power of which shocked them.
Today's action by the city defense forces served as a great on-site advertisement for the crossbow.
Therefore, all parties rushed to buy crossbows today.
These crossbows alone have sold over five million today...
After studying the crossbows and arrows of the Mechanized City, Xiao Yu has improved the Dragon City Crossbow.
However, modifying all the crossbows would be a huge undertaking.
It is impossible to complete in a short period of time.
Therefore, even the city's defense forces are still using old-fashioned crossbows.
Only the rabbit-eared girls and a few others used the new type of powerful crossbow.
However, even the old-fashioned crossbows are far more powerful than the serial weapons.
Moreover, crossbows are not cheap; even the most basic ones cost several hundred dragon coins each.
"Today alone, the crossbows in the weapons section sold out completely," Honglian said with a wry smile.
After all, the forging area doesn't only forge crossbows.
The number of crossbows is also limited.
"Since the crossbows are so popular, let the forging area temporarily set aside other weapons and prioritize forging a batch of crossbows. Of course, the quality must be guaranteed!" Xiao Yu instructed.
"Yes, Lord City Lord! I will immediately notify the forging area to have it made overnight!"
Chu Ling Shuang immediately notified the forging area to rush out a batch of powerful crossbows.
After all, several major forces haven't arrived yet.
At that time, those major powers will definitely need a lot of powerful crossbows.
After dinner, just like yesterday, Xiao Yu finished telling the story of "Journey to the West," and the women began their cultivation.
Xiao Yu looked up at the sky again, his brows furrowing slightly once more.
Last night, when he looked at the moon, he felt that it seemed to have gotten bigger, but because it was a waning crescent, it wasn't very obvious, and he wasn't sure.
But tonight, with the moon nearly full, it's even clearer.
It really has gotten bigger again!
Moreover, even though the Earth Dragon Turtle is a ninth-tier ferocious beast.
However, it still couldn't intimidate all the ferocious beasts.
Within a radius of a hundred miles, many ferocious beasts continued to approach and provoke the Earth Dragon Turtle.
"Tomorrow is another full moon! I hope nothing too unexpected will happen."
……
Qin Tian and his group in the Mechanized City had wasted their entire day because they were blocked by the Earth Dragon Turtle yesterday.
The two elders immediately ordered that there was no need to fight with Dragon City anymore.
Anyway, even if they successfully crossed the abyss and the giant mountain.
With a slight flick of its tail, the earth dragon turtle could send everyone plummeting thousands of meters off a cliff.
Or they could be blocked again, and climbing up wouldn't help.
In short, the two elders have come to a deep understanding.
If we continue to oppose Dragon City, the entire Mechanical City may be destroyed!
The next day, Chu Ling Shuang once again led Sissif and the others to the top of the Dragon City wall.
They observed the activity within a radius of a hundred miles from the city wall.
They wanted to find the trail of those major powers and intercept them.
Unfortunately, by noon, no one had come.
