陸空的等待終於結束。 一整天過去了,遊戲時間結束了,但他依然冇有看到任何腐爪魔從這個巢穴裡出來。
Lu Kong was eager to thoroughly search the swamp, but he worried that there might be other entrances to the Corrupted Claw demon's nest. If they disturbed them, it could be much harder to find them later.
After much deliberation, Lu Kong returned to Xinghe City with a heavy heart.
Let's talk about it tomorrow.
After returning to Xinghe City, Lu Kong first went to the rental district to check out the experience bonus of the villas.
Starlight City is indeed the highest level main city in the Newbie Continent. The villa bonus effects are slightly better than those of Wudang City.
The highest-tier villas for rent by high-ranking nobles in Dahu City can offer up to a 200% experience bonus.
While in Star City, middle-class nobles have a whopping 250% bonus.
Lu Kuang's current prestige is enough to obtain the status of a mid-level nobleman in Xinghe City. Coincidentally, he's going to turn in a mission, so he might as well get the status of a mid-level nobleman in Xinghe City while he's at it.
Lu Kong once again came to the city lord's office in Xinghe City and knocked on the room door.
The secretary with a peculiar appearance opened the door to the room, bowed respectfully to Lu Kong, and then stepped aside.
Lu Kong walked into the office and found Lord Mayor Lie Yang with a furrowed brow, his face grim.
Lúkōng raised an eyebrow, seeming like something was up
He gave a light cough and said, "Lord of the Burning Sun City, I have arrived."
The City Lord of Lieyang regained his composure and looked up at Lu Kong. A strained smile appeared on his somewhat discolored face.
"So it's Lu Kong, sir. What brings you here"
Lu Kong took out the previous conspiracy letter and handed it to the Lord of Lielyang City: "When I went to the Twisted Jungle before, I met a member of the Pale Blade on the road. This letter was obtained from him."
The City Lord of Lieyang was taken aback, a hint of astonishment in his eyes: "……Pale Blade! I heard that this seems to be a secret department of the Pale Sect, specializing in assassinating enemies of the Pale Sect. Could he have come to assassinate Master Lu Kong"
Lu Kong smiled and nodded: "Well, it was indeed to assassinate me. Unfortunately, they weren't strong enough and were killed by me."
The City Lord of Lièyáng was not too surprised. Although the assassin of Bai Blade was notorious, Lu Kong's strength was simply too great.
If the Pale Church didn't know about Lu Kong's true strength, the assassins they sent would probably not have been his match at all.
He took the letter and looked it over.
The more he looked, the deeper Lord Lieyang's brow furrowed.
Moments later, he slammed his fist on the desk, his face turning ashen. "Damn Pale Order! They've made a deal with the Claw Demons of the Newbie Continent, wanting to start a war that will engulf the entire continent!"
Lu Kong frowned, hearing this, his expression became serious.
What's going on
After all, he couldn't understand the words on the letter and could only wait for the Lord of the Sun City to translate it.
The City Lord of Rippling Sun took a deep breath, then his face turned grim: "The message wasn't long, but it shows that the high-ranking members of the Pale Cult and the Clawfiend Clan have been in contact for a long time. The Pale Cult needs a lot of corpses and death energy to research deeper uses of death energy, while the Clawfiends intend to destroy all major cities on the Hunter Continent, slowing down your players' growth. They struck a deal. The two have been working together on the Hunter Beginner Continent for quite some time now. I fear that there are not only Clawfiend lairs near Starfall City, but also around the other three major cities and even nearby lower-level cities."
Lu Kong heard this and immediately frowned.
Members of the Pale Order were not semi-intelligent beings created by cosmic will. They were originally deceased beings from throughout the universe! They are the indigenous people of the cosmic game!
Logically, they should know the terror and malice of demons even if they betrayed the natives and the cosmic players.
Why are they so desperate to obtain so much death power, even collaborating with the Scourgefang Demons
I can't really understand this.
He also asked this question.
Hearing Lü Kong's question, the Lord of Riyang City let out a wry smile and shook his head. "I'm just a lord of a novice continent. Judging from this letter, it might involve the headquarters of the Pale Church in the Central Continent, or even the Demon God of the Corrupted Claw! I don't know the specifics."
Lúkōng only then realized that not all city lords were as prominent as Yín Yuèhán.
Most natives who are new to the mainland are probably not particularly powerful.
Lúkōng thought of Yín Yuèhán, perhaps he could go back to Dàwǔchéng and ask about the situation.
Just so happens, the teleportation arrays of Xinghe City and Dawu City are interconnected. As long as you reach level three, you can freely teleport between the two cities.
No, the Star River City not only connects to the Big Martial City, but all main cities of Yuanxing players also have corresponding teleportation arrays within the Star River City.
This is certainly good news for both land and air.
After all, you still have to farm dungeons in areas like Dazhucheng and other major cities after clearing the land and air.
On one hand, although there is a difference in level, the large number of monsters allows for continued leveling.
On the other hand, the boss templates of these large dungeons are not low, and the dropped items have high quality.
Although equipped with these, the level is definitely behind land and air. However, skills stones and the like are still very much needed by land and air.
Finally, you can also bring talented players from Starry Sky to farm experience and get some higher-level equipment, strengthening the players in Starry Sky.
Lu Kong has already made plans and will go back to Dawu City to find Yin Yuehan later.
The City Lord of Lie Yang continued, "The letter mentioned that the Pale Cult's research on death energy had reached a certain level. They wanted to do something big with the Claw Demon, but I wasn't entirely sure what it was. The letter didn't say."
Speaking of this, City Lord Lièyáng paused, his expression somewhat worried. "Lord Lùkōng, I'm a little uneasy in my heart. The Corrupted Claw Demon and the Pale Congregation are probably going to do some extremely terrifying things. I believe in your strength, so I want to ask for your help. Please find out a few strongholds of the Pale Congregation and understand clearly what they intend to do!"
"Ding, discovered mission: Conspiracy Behind (Unique), accept"
Sure enough, there's a mission.
Lu Kong glanced at the mission introduction.
Mission: Conspiracy Behind the Scenes (Unique)
Introduction: Starlight City's Lord, Lièyáng, is deeply concerned about the conspiracy of the Pale Covenant and the Corrupted Claw. He trusts you immensely and hopes that you can uncover their true intentions.
Reward: 經驗值 若乾, 5000 gold coins, Holy Chest *2, Starlight City reputation 100,000.
He raised an eyebrow. The reward is pretty good.
Two Saint-tier treasure chests, not bad.
Besides, the reputation of Star City still helps Lu Kong now, he hasn't reached 500,000 reputation yet.
You will still need higher prestige to gain the position of a high-ranking noble.
He nodded. "Leave it to me."
The Lord of the Sun City visibly let out a breath, revealing a hint of a smile.
"By the way, Lord City Master, my reputation is now enough to advance to a middle-level noble in Star River City, right I wonder if I could be promoted"
The Lord of the Blazing Sun was taken aback for a moment, then smiled: "Of course, I can. If it were anyone else, they would need to complete a trial mission, but you, Lu Kong, are exempt."
This is similar to what Yin Yuehan said.
Lu Kong's personal strength was sufficient, this mission was obviously not a challenge for him.
After that, the City Lord of Lièyáng announced that Lùkōng had advanced to become a middle-rank nobleman of Xīnghēichéng, just like Yín Yuèhán before him.
Unfortunately, the title didn't change.
Land and air speculation, as long as a city's status meets the requirements, it can be awarded the title, and it will not be reissued afterwards.
Now that Lu Kong has the title of a mid-level noble, he can rent a villa in Xinghe City. How nice!
He smiled and said, "In that case, I'll take my leave first."
He planned to go to Dahu City and have a chat with Yinyuehan about the Pale Congregation, to see why they were acting so crazily.
Just then, the City Lord of Lie Yang suddenly called out to Lu Kong: “Wait! Mr. Lu Kong, I have one more thing here, perhaps I need your help.”
Lu Kong was taken aback. There was still a mission
This is great news!
He smiled and said, "What's up"
"The city lord of Lièyáng's face was grave: 'After you destroyed the Bloodfang Werewolf Tribe, I sent the guard army to thoroughly clean up the remnants, to prevent any stragglers. However... just two hours ago, those guards disappeared.'"ht now, and top-tier skill stones are also rare.And to level up legendary skills to their maximum, you'll probably need to use sacred skill stones.Even if you can specify the drop from land and air, y...
