Chapter 229: The Battle for the Yellow Sapphire
The spring breeze gradually grew stronger at night, fine spring rain fell in the Garden of Heaven, and the night became darker.
At this time, anyone who has gem fragments emitting precious light on his body would not dare to walk in the dark, because he would definitely become the target of hunting by others.
Lin Zhen climbed up a tall peony flower and found a sapphire fragment in the pistil.
"Huh! I thought there were a lot of gem fragments in the garden, but I can't just knock down the flowers and plants recklessly. The search speed won't be as fast as in the grass."
Under such circumstances, Lin Zhen certainly couldn't roam around as recklessly as he did in the grass, and his speed in searching for gems became slower and slower.
Moreover, in the darkness of the night, the sound of fighting could be heard from far away. The night rain could not stop the enthusiasm of the gods of war in searching for gem fragments, and battles occurred from time to time.
Leaning on the petals and looking at the night sky, screams were heard in the distance.
"Someone died again. The fight is quite lively."
He closed his eyes and dozed off. He didn't know how much time had passed before he felt someone climbing up from the other side of the peony flower.
As soon as he opened his eyes, Lin Zhen attacked with his Overlord Spear!
The opponent was also very alert. Two people attacked almost at the same time. Lin Zhen's Overlord Spear and the opponent's sword collided with each other. After a crisp sound, both felt that the opponent was very difficult to deal with, and then they each took a step back.
"Lin Zhen?" The person on the other side spoke.
"Are you Duolong?" Lin Zhen also saw the person opposite him. He had seen him in the poster. He was the God of War Duolong from Changfeng, the Ice City.
Lin Zhen was still somewhat wary of Changfeng Martial Arts School. Duolong was a member of Changfeng's man and also a member of the Hall of Fame. Lin Zhen had to be on guard against the possibility that he might attack him.
Especially the rich precious light on Lin Zhen's body, which makes him more likely to become a target for others to attack.
The aura on Duolong's body was also quite bright. Seeing Lin Zhen's alert action, he quickly waved his hands and said, "Don't do it. We are all Chinese. There are foreigners everywhere here. We shouldn't kill each other."
Lin Zhen saw Duolong's tone and sensed his sincerity. He slowly put down the Overlord Spear and said, "That would be best if it's like this."
After taking a look at the precious light on Duolong's body, Lin Zhen said, "You didn't get the yellow sapphire fragment either?"
Like himself, Doron also had red and blue light on his body.
"No, this topaz fragment is too hard to find. I have met many people, but none of them got the topaz." Duolong sat down.
"I think it should be in a more dangerous place." Lin Zhen said.
"It should be, but it will be daybreak soon. If we cannot obtain the yellow gem in the summer, we must leave. We must reach the stream in the fall, otherwise we may not be able to obtain a place in the promotion."
Lin Zhen nodded, indicating his agreement with Duolong.
Duolong hesitated for a moment, then said, "Lin Zhen, we are not familiar with each other, but I have something to ask you."
"Speaking."
"Some people say that your girlfriend is Su Mingyue, the Saint of the Divine Sect. Is this true?"
Lin Zhen glanced at Duolong and felt that he didn't have any bad intentions. There was nothing shameful about this matter, so he nodded: "Yes."
"Well, I really envy you. But Lin Zhen, I also grew up in Ice City. I am several years older than you. When I was young, I was sponsored by the An Group. I know An Ning, the eldest daughter of the An Group, and I know some of your stories."
"An Ning! Where is she?" Lin Zhen hadn't seen An Ning for a long time and didn't even know her recent situation. He was a little surprised when he heard the news about An Ning.
Duolong shook his head: "I don't know where An Ning went. She has been away from Ice City for three years. The people of An's company are also very tight-lipped about her whereabouts and never tell anyone, but."
Duolong paused, and Lin Zhen took a deep breath: "Please tell me where she is."
"So what if I tell you? Don't you already have Su Mingyue?" Duolong said lightly.
Lin Zhen looked up at the night sky: "I never said I would give up An Ning. Even if you didn't tell me, I would find her sooner or later."
"What do you mean? You still like An Ning?" Duolong asked tentatively.
"I have nothing to say. If you want to tell me, just say it. If you don't want to tell me, just go away. I will find her no matter where she is." Lin Zhen closed his eyes.
"Well, it seems that you still like her." Duolong sighed helplessly: "Then I'll tell you, before the God of War Tournament started, I went to An's company and accidentally heard someone say that their young lady had returned. I paid close attention and indeed saw An Ning."
"Did you really see her?" Lin Zhen opened his eyes suddenly.
"Of course. It's only been three years since we last met, but An Ning has already become a god of war. I have a feeling that if we really fight, I may not be her opponent."
"An Ning has been promoted to God of War? She's back? But why didn't she show up?"
"I don't know about that. I originally thought she would participate in the God of War Tournament. Later, I checked all the people who signed up for the competition in Bingcheng, and An Ning's name was not among them. This matter is a bit strange."
Duolong said this and jumped off the flower: "Okay, that's all I know. Maybe you will meet again by chance. I'm leaving now."
Duolong's figure disappeared into the darkness, but Lin Zhen sat there without moving.
So, the person who left a message for him in the publicity area of Dongcheng District should be An Ning, but where is she?
Lin Zhen never expected An Ning to become so powerful that even Duolong, the God of War of the Hall of Fame, felt that she was no match for him. What has she experienced in the past few years?
Lin Zhen closed his eyes and meditated quietly.
After a night of wind and rain, in the early morning, the rising sun in the east shone a ray of morning light, and summer had arrived.
Lin Zhen looked at the sea of flowers, and felt that in the moment when the sun shone, he saw a golden light flashing in the distance.
"Topaz!"
Lin Zhen stood up suddenly and ran towards the place where the golden light was coming from.
Lin Zhen was not the only one who made the discovery. War gods from many other places also saw it. They all came out from their hiding places and ran quickly in the sea of flowers.
About twenty minutes later, Lin Zhen arrived at the place where the golden light was coming from.
When he arrived, quite a few people had already gathered here, all looking up.
Lin Zhen also looked up and he finally knew where the topaz was.
A sunflower, as thick as dozens of people could hug, rose high into the sky. The incomparably huge flower disk was facing the sun, and occasionally there was a golden light flashing in it. Those were fragments of topaz.
"Sunflower! It turns out it's a sunflower. It turns out topaz grows in the sun. Sunflowers are the places that receive the most sunlight, and topaz can be found there!"
The warriors were a little agitated. Ten yellow sapphire fragments would make a top-grade star weapon. Even if they couldn't collect all ten, one fragment would be worth ten billion. If they could get one, their trip to the Garden of Heaven would not be in vain.
Some war gods couldn't hold back and wanted to pick the yellow gems.
Because there is a no-fly zone in the Garden of Heaven, you cannot fly to high places and can only climb.
There were two war gods who arrived first and had already climbed onto the main trunk. The people below thought they might get the big prize, but the two men suddenly fell off the trunk with screams.
The two men were covered in black and turned into light and disappeared before they hit the ground.
"The trunk of the sunflower is covered with caterpillars!"
Someone shouted, and people then discovered that there were many huge caterpillars lying on the trunk, slowly moving upwards.
Each of these caterpillars is as big as a yacht, and their black, yellow and brown hairs are obviously highly poisonous, which makes people shudder at the sight of them.
This creature is huge, poisonous, and there are so many of them that we definitely can't get through the main trunk.
People's eyes fell on the surrounding morning glory vines.
Because sunflowers are so tall, they are almost the tallest plants in the Garden of Heaven. Many morning glories cling to the sunflowers, forming green corridors around them.
"What are you waiting for! Go!"
A war god from the African Union was the first to climb onto a flower vine and flew upwards quickly.
When he moved, many people around him moved.
There were more than a dozen vines hanging around this sunflower. Hundreds of war gods present rushed out, looking for the nearest vines to climb.
The AU god of war had just climbed up and when he passed by a morning glory, the huge trumpet mouth of the morning glory suddenly bit down like a big mouth.
The AU god of war had no time to dodge and was immediately swallowed by the morning glory.
Soon there was a flash of white light, and the god of war was eliminated. Pieces of gem fragments fell down, most of them were red, and a few were blue.
The gods of war behind him did not retreat because of his death, and the morning glories might not be unable to escape. Moreover, the light of the topaz has aroused people's deepest desires, and they are still moving forward one after another.
Lin Zhen also moved. He first flew up to a height of more than ten meters, then climbed quickly. When he was about to catch up with the last person, he teleported!
The higher you go, the weaker the power of teleportation. Lin Zhen actually only teleported a dozen meters at a time.
Teleport again!
After going another seven or eight meters, Lin Zhen finally surpassed the war god in front of him.
It was no longer possible to continue teleporting in this restricted area, so Lin Zhen began to climb quickly.
A Brazilian warrior behind him shouted. He was originally in the first place, but was suddenly overtaken by Lin Zhen. How could he accept this? He drew out a long sword and was about to attack Lin Zhen.
Lin Zhen suddenly turned his hand back, countless electric currents surged, and energy balls rolled down mercilessly, knocking the war god off the flower vine! Not only Lin Zhen did this, many powerful war gods began to eliminate their competitors.
The weaker war gods were knocked down one after another by them. The fight for the yellow gem on the sunflower could only be a battle between masters.
The first update, released today.
