In Yonglu, Qianye returned to the City of Blue Waves from the New World again.
Standing on the terrace of the Grand Duke's Mansion, the city of blue waves in front of him gave him a rather strange feeling.
In the distance, the fringe area of the city and the large area outside the city gate were originally slums full of low shacks, feces and dirty water, but now they have been bulldozed in patches, creating patches with distinct characteristics. building.
From those uniform styles, it can be seen that this area is a demon-inhabited area, and that area is a blood race, and the werewolves are divided into several areas and several styles. The emerald sea, the grand canyon, and the blast collar werewolves have different preferences. , and werewolves from the continents of Eternal Night have their own preferences.
The same is true for the human race. At a glance, you can see the imperial style, the Zheng country style, the neutral land style, and so on.
Areas are neat and uniform, basically cut into squares, separated by wide roads. In contrast, the places where the chief priests lived in the city of blue waves looked like slums.
Those werewolf chief priests are used to being arrogant, how can they bear this? In addition, regardless of the backwardness of the werewolves in Yonglu, these chief priests are not short of money. So many years of accumulated resources, when there is no foreign trade, you can only look at it yourself. With trade, it is money.
When they saw the new buildings built by outsiders, their eyes were shining. After returning, they either hired imperial craftsmen or Yongye craftsmen to renovate their residences according to their own preferences.
As a result, the aristocratic area of the city of blue waves has also become a construction site, and there are renovations and demolition everywhere. But before the completion of the project, Qianye could see that the styles in the same area were different, and after the completion, it would inevitably be chaotic, and it still couldn't compare to the neatness and order of the renovated slums.
In fact, the new plan for the slum area was created by Song Hui. She didn't bother to pay attention to the mountains and rivers in accordance with the imperial tradition, and she simply drew a few straight horizontal and vertical lines on the map. The plots are separated. The only contribution may be to require that the road must be built wide.
It just so happened that the werewolf priests who were in charge of the building had limited standards, and they couldn't understand more complex plans. This method of drawing squares was the most satisfactory, so they carried it out to the end, and there was a brand-new city of blue waves today. .
In addition to the residential area, a large area of land was specially designated and a special trade area was built, and various shops sprung up like mushrooms after rain. From the bustling crowd, you can see that the gold coins are rolling in.
Qianye would not bother with such mundane matters, and was about to return to his room when a familiar figure suddenly appeared at the edge of his field of vision. He was slightly startled, his figure flickered, and he appeared in front of that person in the blink of an eye. At this moment, Qianye's body skills are already superb, and he cast void flashing in the busy city, almost no one noticed.
In front of Qianye, that stubble-faced, down-and-out man was surprisingly William.
William looked up and was not surprised when he saw Qianye. He sighed and said, "You came just in time. I was just looking for you. Buy me a drink. I'm in a bad mood recently."
Qianye didn't say much, and said, "Go to my place or find a random place?"
William waved his hand, "Find a tavern, your place is empty, and there is no atmosphere for drinking."
Qianye has nothing to do, but fortunately, the city of blue waves is now mixed with various races. Regardless of the empire's eternal night, the demand for wine is the same, so taverns, large and small, have sprung up all over the city.
Qianye restrained his breath, while William was in a state of desperation, no one recognized the two of them at all. The two found a lively tavern and got in, occupying a corner table.
Before sitting down, William moved his nose and said, "There is Lagrange in this place? Ah, there is also the smell of Shirley. What is that? Saint Laurent?"
He called out the names of several world-famous wines in succession, and his eyes began to shine.
Qianye doesn't know anything about wine, in his opinion, any wine tastes the same. But since William was so interested, he called the waiter and said, "Do you have the wines he just mentioned?"
The waiter looked proud, "My lord, don't look at our small store, but in fact we are a famous chain of Yongye, with more than 400 branches in three continents. This is the first one in Yonglu. As long as you listen We can basically find the good wine we mentioned.”
Qianye said: "Okay, first take two bottles of each."
"Three bottles!" William interrupted.
The waiter was startled, and said cautiously: "My lords, this will cost a lot of money."
William slapped Qianye hard, "My brother has nothing but money!"
Qianye smiled wryly, why would he bring any gold coins with him at this time? The other things in Anduya's space are not suitable for displaying financial resources, and the waiter probably doesn't know any of them. After thinking about it, his consciousness suddenly scanned the two boxes in the space, and with a thought, there was an extra potion in his hand, and he said, "Use this to pay."
The waiter took a look and was taken aback, saying: "This is the holy tree sap potion of the human race! It is the genuine product from the military department, enough, enough."
After a while, the table was full of large and small wine bottles, all of which were famous wines. William opened a bottle, took a sip, and praised: "Good wine!"
He raised his head and poured down half of the bottle, sighed: "I never thought I could drink such good wine here."
"I didn't expect that either." Qianye said the truth. The supply of luxury goods in a place represents the financial resources of that place. Before today, he had no idea that Bibo City had surpassed the spending power of the neutral land of Dacheng.
"Come on, do it!"
William didn't talk much, he just drank in silence. He didn't speak, and Qianye didn't ask any questions, just drinking with him. In a blink of an eye, the wine bottles on the table of the two were more than half empty.
Although William is powerful, his natural capacity for alcohol still varies from individual to individual. Without using the force to resist, he gradually became overwhelmed by alcohol, and his eyes began to wander.
Qianye felt a little dizzy from the beginning, and he is still a little dizzy now. If he continues to drink, he will probably remain a little dizzy.
William obviously had something on his mind, and seemed to be trying every means to pour himself down.
When he was about eight or nine points drunk, William suddenly said: "Do you know, in this hellish world, as long as you are a little weaker, someone will want to divide you up for meat! Without strength, there is no bloody dignity !"
"I still sympathize with others when they say that, you? Let's forget it."
"I've just experienced two soul openings, and I've made progress a little faster than others. What's wrong with me?!" William was very dissatisfied.
"Wait, what did you just say? The soul is opened? Or twice?" Qianye now has 50 to 60 million werewolves under his command, and he is very clear about the werewolves.
The opening of the soul is a special ceremony of werewolves. Through a series of mysterious ceremonies held at the altar of the ancestors, various tests of the souls of the ancestors are accepted. After passing the tests, part of the power of the souls of the ancestors can be obtained.
Werewolves with soul opening qualifications are geniuses among geniuses. Even so, the probability of passing the test is very low.
Once passed the test and received the blessing of the ancestor's soul, the strength of the werewolf would increase dramatically, and there was even a record of being promoted two levels in a row. This kind of soul improvement is different from human potions, it has almost no side effects, and the powers obtained are various, some are pure physical power, some are stronger force cultivation, and even become a master of prophecy .
The existence of soul initiation is one of the reasons why the Werewolf Ancestor Sect is so prosperous. It is precisely because of this ceremony that the tribes in the original form of werewolves can also continuously emerge strong men, allowing werewolves to maintain the status of the four major clans.
In William's mouth, after two soul openings, it was as simple as eating and drinking.
"Then your current rank is..." Qianye asked cautiously after being mostly awake. Under his decadent appearance, this William's strength may have undergone earth-shaking changes.
William seemed to have drunk too much, and seemed unsuspecting of Qianye, he said, "Duke, so what?"
With a long sigh, he picked up the bottle and drank it vigorously.
"Wait, you're already a duke, and your rank is higher than mine, so what can you complain about?" Qianye was very dissatisfied.
William glared at Qianye, and said, "Let's say it's the Duke, so what if the wolf respects the wolf ancestor? Shouldn't we also bow our heads and offer up the benefits of the werewolf?"
"You mean, Holy Mountain?"
William nodded, his face was gloomy, and he just drank his head sullenly.
The wolf ancestor is dying, that's all. The Wolf Venerable at the top of the peaks is in his prime, and if he can be suppressed to bow his head, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Supreme Being to do so easily. Most likely, the two Supreme Beings on the holy mountain joined forces to force the werewolf to bow his head, and William was so depressed.
William looked at Qianye, and suddenly said, "Guess, why did I come to you?"
Qianye leaned back, and said, "You won't be asking me for a drink, you won't ask for trouble."
William stared at Qianye, his lips moved, and he really wanted to say some harsh words, but he managed to retain his last bit of sobriety, knowing that fighting with Qianye for wine would only lead to death, so he couldn't let go of these hard words. go down.
However, with such an interruption, William's depression was also relieved a lot. He sighed and said, "Actually, I came to you to avoid disaster."
"Avoid disaster?"
William said with a gloomy face, "For thousands of years, I am the only werewolf whose soul has been opened twice. The wolf master blocked the news and asked me to leave the werewolf territory and travel abroad. In fact, he was afraid that I would be drafted into the new world. When I got there , fate is no longer in your own hands.”
Qianye also had some understanding of the current situation in the New World, and said, "You mean, a victim?"
William laughed at himself and said: "Is there a better target than me? In order to kill me, I'm afraid King Qingyang will come to do it?"
Qianye sighed, from his point of view, he really didn't know what to do. From the standpoint of the empire, William's value is still higher than that of Hierro, so if he can kill him, he will naturally not hesitate.
However, Qianye has always been unable to treat William as a real enemy. Not only did William save him intentionally or unintentionally many times when he was weak, but also as a nobleman of Eternal Night, William did not specifically target the dawn camp or the human race. He is more like a lone traveler, looking for a gray area between the two camps.
"If they really do this, I'm afraid it's tantamount to turning against the werewolves completely?"
"Both the ancestor of the wolf and the master of the wolf are worried about this, so let me leave and don't give them this chance." William's voice was extraordinarily desolate.
