Chapter 531: Wandering God
The Dragon Binding Rope's first combat was very successful.
It works with the vortex cannon, combining strategic strikes and precise decapitation, and for the first time realizes the coordination of infantry and artillery in virtual universe combat.
Lu Yao was very satisfied with the result.
He looked down at the desert of Yunzhong Temple and began to pay attention to the captured prisoners.
The head of the Long Cavalry Marshal is a pumpkin lantern, with an orange robe around his neck and a purple cape behind him. His body is shrouded in the robe and appears to be suspended.
Lu Yao double-clicked the pumpkin head and obtained the other party's specific panel.
…
[Long Cavalry Marshal][Seal][Bound]
HP: 8814/107129Mana : 17220/29327Damage: 198Defense : 132Speed : 23 [Lantern Pumpkin]
The Lantern Pumpkin Clan can burn their lives to replace the effect of the fire of faith.
【World Driver LV24】
Able to deeply transform a world and make oneself the core of the world, burning life to drive the world to operate in the virtual universe. The effect is related to the level of this ability and the scale of the world.
[Vagabond LV26]
Long-term wandering has developed a strong ability to survive, and even if life is reduced to zero, one can continue to survive for a period of time.
【Blue Bridge Treaty LV5】
A specific treaty was concluded through the Blue Bridge: accepting short-term employment from the [Dauntless] for a period of 140 years (remaining: 15 years).
【godhead】
…
[Godhead]: Yes.
【Divinity】: As lowly as an ant (50).
【Divine Body】: Gods Level (0).
…
Blue Bridge Treaty, short-term employment... Is this Marshal of the Long Cavalry a mercenary?
There is actually such a group among the gods.
Lu Yao became interested.
Pumpkinhead currently has only 50 faith left, and his personal data panel looks ordinary, but his several abilities are quite interesting, with points added to his abilities in terms of survival and escape.
To be on the safe side, Lu Yao called Slymod and Rock King Bartfly.
Only then did he untie the dragon-binding rope.
As soon as he was released from the seal and restraint, an exclamation mark appeared on Marshal Longqi's head: "Who are you? What do you want to do? I am a subordinate of Lord [Fearless]."
Lu Yao thought to himself that it was okay.
He introduced himself right away and took advantage of the situation. He is a veteran in this field.
Being closely guarded by two powerful apostles, the Marshal of the Long Cavalry did not act rashly and stayed where he was.
Pumpkinhead stated directly: "The fire of my faith has been consumed, and the Long Cavalry that I had worked so hard to build has also been completely destroyed... I am willing to work for the powerful gods here to redeem my freedom."
Isabel began to negotiate with him.
"Please introduce yourself first."
“…”
The Marshal of the Long Cavalry was silent for a while.
Then He spoke: "I am a scout and tracker with extensive experience, and I have experience operating in dangerous environments such as divine wars, turbulence, and dark tides."
"I have made almost no mistakes in carrying out the tasks assigned by my employer, except for this time when I accepted the employment of Lord Fearless... The gods behind you can also see that my Blue Bridge Treaty has reached Level 5. If I don't sign a large number of treaties, I can't reach this level. This is proof."
Lu Yao was amused by what he saw.
Rather than a self-introduction, this pumpkin-head guy is more like demonstrating his abilities during an interview.
It sounds like the Blue Bridge Treaty should have a certain credibility and influence among the gods, otherwise Pumpkinhead would not express his rank so confidently.
Isabel asked, "Why are you chasing Phase Kun?"
"Employer's orders."
Marshal Longqi answered honestly: "Lord Fearless has taken control of the Bailing tribe and deliberately gave several stargazers a chance to escape. I am responsible for tracking one of them, Star Twelve. The purpose is to find more scattered phase ephemera and complete the subsequent hunt."
"The price of Phase Kundu has been rising over the years. They are the equivalent of living navigation in the virtual universe. They are almost all controlled by various gods. It is rare to see wild ones in the Leap Zone."
"This time, one of Lord Fearless's gods discovered this tribe in the Crawling Zone. There are nearly a hundred members, so Fearless wants to maximize his profits and capture the entire tribe."
"I just didn't expect that the god behind you was also hunting these phase gnats."
A drop of sweat appeared on Marshal Longqi's forehead. "I am just a hired god. None of this has anything to do with me. I just follow orders and earn a little fire of faith."
Isabel asked him again: "What is your relationship with Lanqiao?"
"Well, I'm not a god directly under Lanqiao, and I don't have the qualifications... I just accepted employment and signed a contract with Lanqiao Immortal Cave. Because the constraints over there are very strong, wandering gods like us can also get some mission opportunities there..."
While watching the conversation between Isabel and Marshal Long Cavalry, Lu Yao opened the committee's database page and compared the two sources of information.
What Marshal Changqi said is basically true.
Lanqiao is a tree-like civilization in the Leap Zone, also known as the Lanqiao Mythical Civilization Tree.
The core of this civilization is the mythical wonder [Blue Bridge Fairy Cave], and its greatest feature is the operation of the [credit] industry.
A large number of wandering gods depend on it, relying on the power of the Blue Bridge to protect their own interests and look for employers and profitable tasks.
Using the Blue Bridge as a hub and carrier, an agreement is reached between gods, or between gods and strange creatures, gods and special creatures, and strange creatures themselves, which is the [Blue Bridge Treaty].
Two or more parties will be subject to strong constraints by accessing the wonder [Blue Bridge Fairy Cave].
If either party violates the treaty, the [Blue Bridge Fairy Cave] will erode and take over the world rules, and even the entire kingdom of God will be taken away by Blue Bridge, thereby compensating the other party for the losses.
This is easy for Lu Yao to understand.
Similar to the constraints in low-dimensional games.
It’s just that the low-dimensional game uses the divine knot, while the Blue Bridge civilization uses the wonder [Blue Bridge Fairy Cave].
Lu Yao also gained more knowledge from this.
The Blue Bridge civilization has demonstrated specialization in a certain mythological wonder, which can reach an extremely high upper limit and even support the core industry of a tree-like civilization.
The gods in the Leaping Zone are generally stronger than those in the Crawling Zone. Some of the gods there are attached to the Initiators and the Titled Gods. Those who do not have the support of a unified higher-level group are called Wandering Gods.
The vast majority of gods fall into the category of wandering gods.
Over time, the area around the Blue Bridge Civilization Tree became home to a large number of wandering gods.
Many titled gods would come here to hire other gods, and weak wandering gods were also willing to use the Blue Bridge Treaty to protect their own rights.
Marshal of the Long Cavalry is an example.
…
"The reason why Lord Fearless hired me is because most of his subordinates are good at fighting, but none of them are good at tracking and investigating."
Marshal Longqi said: "I have nothing now, and I can only rely on my insignificant ability to redeem myself."
"I can do anything! I can create specific worlds for you. These worlds can be used as traps, as marks, or even to confuse and disorient the enemy. This is also one of my specialties!"
“…”
Isabel was silent for a moment: "You are still under the [Blue Bridge Treaty]. Are you not in breach of the contract now?"
"Not really! This is force majeure, it's in the agreement! This is actually my last mission, tracking and marking along the way. I don't have the ability to complete the follow-up now."
The Marshal of the Long Cavalry tried hard to recommend himself.
"Wait."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Isabel knelt down facing the screen.
Lu Yao thought about it carefully.
The Marshal of the Long Cavalry has strong ability and a positive attitude.
This is an opportunity to try to absorb gods from outside.
He typed a line.
Isabel took the order and turned to the captive and said, "The merciful Yao God has decided to give you a chance and give you a gravel world to quickly transform. If the result of the transformation satisfies the God, you will be recruited by the God and stay here as a god."
"If you can't do that..."
Pumpkinhead was sweating profusely: "I will never let God down!"
…
Lu Yao chose the smallest micro-gravel world for Marshal Changqi to play with.
Pumpkinhead moved the Temple of the Gods to this world, and then peeled off a large number of fragments from it, and the whole world became smaller and smaller.
In the end, this world was transformed into a three-dimensional crescent moon.
Two hours later.
Marshal Changqi said with sweat on his forehead, "After the initial transformation, this world is now much lighter, and the acceleration will be much faster when setting sail. I retained some necessary weight to make the turning direction more stable."
"Can you please grant me a little fire of faith? My health is too low now and it is difficult to support the burning trial."
Lu Yao gave him 100,000 faiths.
An exclamation mark appeared on the pumpkin head: "Enough, that's enough! Please look! I will start the test voyage now."
Lu Yao switched to the macro perspective of the virtual universe.
The moon-shaped world driven by Marshal Changqi broke away from the ring-shaped world group and drove away at high speed. Its acceleration was faster than any divine kingdom Lu Yao had ever seen before.
Lu Yao was not afraid that the other party would take the opportunity to escape.
Voyage in the virtual universe depends on endurance. The 100,000 faiths and the 50 faiths of the Long Cavalry Marshal added together are not enough for him to travel far.
Marshal Changqi controlled the gravel world to constantly change direction and fold in the virtual universe, without slowing down at all during the entire process.
Finally, He made a light tail swing and turned back to the circular group very smoothly, just like a boomerang returning to the starting point.
Just watching the Pumpkin Head controlling the Moon-shaped world to fly gave Lu Yao a smooth feeling.
The Yao Clan civilization needs talents like you! All the gods before Lu Yao were engaged in internal affairs, and the Marshal of the Long Cavalry will be the first god to be mainly responsible for external affairs.
Having an extra fast driver under my command is great for exploring the route and doing reconnaissance.
In the gravel world, Isabel flew on her magic wand to the pumpkin head that came out of the temple.
"Welcome aboard."
"Phew! That's great!"
A smiling face appeared on Marshal Longqi’s head.
The divine rituals were performed in the Sand City Temple.
This time, Lu Yao did not demote Him again - in order to facilitate external exploration and contact, the identity of the gods is also necessary.
At this point, the number of gods has reached four.
After becoming one of them, Lu Yao asked directly about many things.
For example, how strong is the Fearless?
"The strength of the Fearless is totally incomparable to yours."
Marshal Changqi said with great confidence: "Lord Zhengshen, the destructive power and method you have demonstrated to the Kingdom of God will only lead to the fall of the Fearless if they dare to come."
"All the wandering gods around Blue Bridge know that the Fearless is strong because he has a large number of gods under his command, but these gods are not united..."
According to Marshal Long Cavalry, the Fearless absorbed a large number of gods into his military group, but he only paid attention to the number and did not strictly reorganize them.
When dealing with battles, the Fearless's method is to rely on numbers. If the opponent is one god, then the Fearless will have two, three, or even five gods. If the opponent has many gods, then the Fearless will never provoke them.
In a nutshell, it means using the majority to defeat the minority and the strong to defeat the weak.
This method is simple but effective, and it allows the Fearless camp as a whole to become stronger and stronger, and their numbers will increase as the battles go on.
"To be honest, I don't think highly of it."
Marshal Long Cavalry said: "Except for the Fearless himself and two or three of his trusted subordinates, the remaining one hundred or so gods are a mob. They will surely be defeated if they encounter a tough battle. They are not worth joining."
"Moreover, the Fearless is notoriously bad at treating his gods, and he constantly demands tribute. He is not as generous and wealthy as you, who would just give 100,000 flames of faith just for a chance to show off..."
Lu Yao had a general idea in his mind.
No wonder the Fearless's suppression rate is only 51%, ranking around 2000. He basically gained his record by bullying the weaker gods, and when facing tough opponents, he lost more than he won.
Marshal Changqi continued, "I have marked several gravel worlds along the way to facilitate travel. If you follow the marks, you will find the Bailing Tribe."
"According to the current market conditions, if we sell the tribe's native world together, the price will be much higher than if we sell it separately. So the Fearless will ensure the integrity of that world and strictly prohibit the gods from invading it."
“He will not move it to the Leap Zone either. Because the change in spatial level may cause the Phase Kunfei to become abnormal or even damaged, resulting in it not being able to be sold at a good price.”
"The Fearless is personally negotiating with the buyer in the Leap Zone. Such a large deal cannot be completed in a short time, and the price will be compared among three suppliers. There are only a few gods blocking the scene... I think this is a good opportunity."
"The Bailing tribe is only worthy of the strong! You should be the master of those phase Kunfei!"
Lu Yao thought about it and couldn't find a reason to refuse.
Before the Fearless were the God of Bo and the Cavalry, both of whom attacked aggressively and caused themselves a lot of trouble.
This time the offense and defense switched sides.
Let me also give you a taste of my new and improved Italian cannon.
