Dering Cowart was left speechless by Linley's questioning.
"Lin Lei, let me tell you, as long as a little bit of Heiyu powder is mixed into a weapon, the hardness of the weapon will increase to a very high level. If a weapon is made entirely of Heiyu Even if you give it to a sanctuary master to fight, it is impossible for a sanctuary master to destroy it."
Delin Cowart was really helpless.
Linley was obviously not fully aware of the preciousness of Heiyu.
"Then, Grandpa Delin, can I make an epee out of this black jade?" Since the last time I heard Delin Cowart talk about the benefits of an epee, Linley really wanted to get a epee. sword. Originally, lei was going to buy a good epee to use. But now it is natural to make good use of this 'black jade stone'.
Linley now has no shortage of money at all.
"Refining with Heiyu stone? An epee is relatively large, so it should be combined with Heiyu stone and some other ore materials. Of course, I don't know anything about refining. But I heard that it is necessary to use Heiyu stone for refining. Making a weapon is not an easy task. The black jade stone is too hard, and if you want to melt it, an ordinary refiner can't do it." Dering Cowart said with a smile.
Linley nodded inwardly.
Black jade stone, that is a substance that is difficult to destroy even by god-level masters, but since black jade stone can be refined into weapons, there must be a refining method. It's just that this method is too difficult.
"I see." Linley nodded.
…
Linley, the second prince, Shaq, and the others kept marching toward the north. The farther north, the fewer monsters. Especially today, Linley and the others had already advanced for three or four hundred miles, but the three or four hundred miles turned out to be one end. The monsters did not appear, and some cities and villages here also did not die.
However, many cities and villages have very few people. It is estimated that many people are worried about the danger and have migrated to the north.
"Haha, fortunately, the Kingdom of Hess has not fallen." Shaq said with a big smile, "It's been a few days since I've been gone, and I can finally rest."
Shaq said and looked at Linley.
Linley, who was sitting on the steed, sat like an old tree with its roots twisted up, not shaking at all, and he was very stable. Lin Lei, whose face was indifferent and silent, naturally had a calm demeanor. Shaq was in awe of Linley. Although he was a few years older than Linley. However, he always respectfully addressed Linley as 'Lord Linley'.
"Lord Linley, look, the barracks is ahead." Shaq and Linley said as they rode side by side.
lei nodded.
The Holy See of Light obviously decided to set up a line of defense on the border of Hess Kingdom. You can see how many soldiers there are by looking at the endless military camps.
"The two kingdoms and the five principalities. It's almost one-third of the territory of the Holy Alliance. I believe the Holy See of Light is unwilling to step back." Lin Lei said with a light smile.
This level is to be careful of the monster group.
For humans, it doesn't stop at all.
"Second Prince, where do we stop?" Linley looked very calm.
"Hess City, one of the locations that my father and I have set down, here is more than 300 miles away from Hess City. If you hurry up, you will be able to arrive this evening." Shaq replied unreservedly. .
"Hess City!"
Linley remembered this name in his heart, "Clyde, Hess City is where you died."
…
Running all the way, Linley, Shaq and more than 30 people drove their horses, leaving a trail of smoke and dust on the road. When Linley and Shaq saw Hess City, the sun had not yet completely set. The light of the setting sun shone on the earth, and the earth was red.
"Hess City, the capital of Hess Kingdom, is only slightly smaller than Finlay City." Linley looked at the outline of the huge city wall of Hess City, and his heart was also shocked.
How much human and material resources would it take to build such a huge city
"Herod~~"
Linley and a group of people were stopped at the gate of Hess City.
"Dismount." Hess city guard yelled loudly.
"Why dismount?" Shaq roared angrily.
Seeing that the Shaq group had unusual origins, the city guard replied, "Your Majesty has ordered that horses are not allowed in Hess City. Ladies and gentlemen, the city of Hess is overcrowded. There is not enough place to ride horses, so it's better for you to dismount. "
"get off the horse." lei said to shaq with a smile.
Shaq nodded.
Linley, Shaq, and the others could also imagine that many people who escaped from the two kingdoms and the five principalities, as well as those who were close to Hess City, had escaped to Hess City. Those two kingdoms and five principalities had a population of hundreds of millions.
Even if ninety-nine percent are dead, there are still millions of people alive. What's more, there are almost no monsters in the hundreds of kilometers near Hess Kingdom, and most of the residents there are not dead.
"A lot of people."
Entering Hess City, Linley, Shaq and a group of people couldn't help but be surprised. The entire city of Hess generally accommodates up to one million people. However, Linley estimated that the population of Hess City was at least several million at the moment. Because the road is crowded. In Finlay City, Linley had never encountered such a situation.
"Find a hotel to stay first, and you come here to find me right away." Shaq immediately ordered his men to book a hotel room.
"Lord Linley, let's go have dinner first." Shaq said with a smile, of course Linley would not refuse. Shaq immediately took Linley and the others into the adjacent hotel. The ground floor of the hotel was full, but there were still private rooms above.
"Three private rooms." Shaq said very proudly.
But when the group sat down, Shaq was a little dumbfounded when he saw the price list. Shaq grabbed the waiter next to him and roared in dissatisfaction: "Do you think I'm a fool? At your price, doesn't my table cost thousands of gold coins? You kill people."
Although this hotel is of high grade, but Shaq's identity, he has naturally entered a high-end hotel.
For a hotel of this level, a table costing 100 gold coins is not bad.
"Sir, if you don't eat, you can leave." The waiter was very confident. "Now the city of Hess is overcrowded, which has led to soaring prices, and some of the people from the big family who escaped are all high-end consumption."
Shaq was stunned for a moment.
Yes, most of the people who escaped from the two kingdoms and the five principalities were powerful people with strength, or some big families with elite guard teams. Those big families are naturally unwilling to consume low prices.
"Humph."
Shaq snorted, and finally ordered the food, when Shaq, Linley and the others had already eaten for a while—
"His Royal Highness, the second prince." The person who went to find the hotel accommodation came back.
"How? Did you find the place?" Shaq asked.
The guard shook his head and said, "Now the rooms in the major hotels are all booked up. Although I only went to five major hotels, I also felt that there were too many people booking rooms. Your Highness, we came to Hess City too late. , the five principalities, and some big families in the Hammu Kingdom are faster than us."
Shaq nodded.
"Sit down first and eat." Shaq looked at the other guard with short blue hair. "Are you full? Go and find a mansion for me and buy it directly. I guess the price of Hess City mansion is very expensive now. , but even if it’s expensive, buy one. Remember… don’t buy something that is too conspicuous and too big. This mansion is just a place where my father and I temporarily live.”
"Yes, Your Highness." The guard immediately responded and started to look for the mansion for Shaq.
Linley drank quietly by the side, just watching everything indifferently.
"The mansion? Let's see which mansion it is. When Clyde arrives, it is estimated that he will also go to that mansion." When you know where Clyde will go in the future, you just need to wait. You can just wait for Clyde to die.
…
Hess City, an ordinary mansion on Keyan Street.
In ordinary fact, a mansion like Hess City that is not in the central area is generally priced at around 200,000 to 300,000 gold coins. However, Prince Shaq spent a million gold coins to buy this mansion. A large number of rich and nobles poured into Hess City, which also made Hess City's land prices soar.
that night.
Linley also lived in this mansion.
"Then Clyde, he should live in one of these two or three rooms." Linley walked among the mansion, carefully watching the layout of the mansion. Prepare to kill Clyde in the future.
The night wind was freezing cold, but Linley carefully watched the various parts of the mansion.
"Lord Linley, why haven't you rested yet?" The enchanting princess, standing at the door of the room, shouted softly to Linley.
"It's stuffy inside, let's get some air outside." Linley replied casually.
"I also feel a little bored." The princess walked out of the room and walked towards Lin Lei, but the wink at Lin Lei made Lin Lei feel terrified, and she immediately said, "Then the princess, let's take a good breath, I'll go back to the room to rest first. ." Linley said and left quickly.
When the princess saw Linley leaving, she couldn't help but snorted in dissatisfaction.
…
The next morning.
"Second prince, princess, princess, I still have things to do, so I'll leave first." Linley began to leave.
"Lord Linley, why are you leaving in such a hurry? I'll talk about it when my father arrives." Shaq immediately held back.
Linley sneered from the bottom of his heart: "Wait for your father? If Clyde sees me at your residence, I'm afraid I can only kill him clearly. It's better to kill him secretly if you know the possibility of killing him." I've had a few losses.
this time lei made up his mind.
"This time, I have to endure until Clyde and Caesar are not together. When Clyde is alone, I will kill him again. It will definitely succeed." Linley understood that if Caesar was there, he would only be able to kill him for a while. Can't kill Clyde.
But without Caesar, he will surely succeed.
"Then where did Linley-sama go?" Shaq asked.
"I'm going to leave Hess City and continue to the north. As for the exact location, I haven't decided yet." Linley replied, "Okay, the second prince, princess, and palace master, I'll go first."
With a slight bow, Linley took Beibei and left the mansion.
…
That night, Linley stayed in another small courtyard on Keyan Street. The mansion that Shaq bought took up a relatively large area, and it was not too crowded for more than 30 people. And the small yard that Linley bought could actually only accommodate three or four people.
Linley also spent fifty thousand gold coins to purchase this small courtyard. Usually, a few thousand gold coins are enough for such a small courtyard.
"Da, Er, did you see anyone entering the mansion?" Linley asked the two men while sitting at the dining table.
"No."
These two men were casually hired by Linley on the street today, and now they have fled to Hess City. In addition to the nobles, there are many commoners, who fled to Hess City without food or shelter. All they could do was beg and do hard labor. Linley hired them easily. The salary of two gold coins a day, along with food and lodging, made a group of refugees rush to get the job.
Linley saw that these two brothers were relatively down-to-earth people, so he chose them.
"You can sleep at night, but during the day you can watch me closely. As long as there are strangers entering the mansion, especially a large number of strangers, you must notify me. Pay attention to a person who has no hands." Linley once again Entrusted.
There is no need to monitor at night, because the city gate of Hess is not open at night.
Moreover, Linley believed that with these two people staring at him all day, as long as Clyde's people came, he would definitely be able to find out. Prince Nashaq and the others thought that Linley had left Hess City, but they didn't know that Linley was living in a mansion not far from them.
"Clyde, I'll be waiting here. I'll see when you'll come." Linley's eyes were cold.
The two brothers couldn't help trembling when they saw Linley's expression like this.
"Go down." Linley ordered.
"Yes, my lord."
