Chapter 159: Chilling to the Bone

"What can I do for you?"

Lin You didn't care about the reactions of the people around him and asked directly.

"It's like this, His Highness asked me to give you something."

As he spoke, Zhou Yuanwei took out a token from his sleeve and handed it to Lin You.

"What is this?" Lin You looked puzzled.

"This is His Highness's personal token. With this, you can come to the palace to see His Highness at any time. Just now, you left in a hurry, so His Highness asked me to bring it to you."

"Okay, I'll take the things first. Go back and tell the Third Prince that if there is a chance in the future, I will come to bother him at his mansion."

Lin You took the token and put it into his personal space.

He didn't expect that Qin Li would be so persistent in trying to recruit him.

After all, he was just a sixth-rank lord who had just arrived in the main city for two days. He didn't look like someone worth recruiting.

And he was given the token in front of so many people.

Whether he accepted it or not, he would be labeled as a member of the Third Prince's faction, which would immediately put him on the opposite side of the First Prince and the Second Princess.

He is really scheming.

As expected, none of the royal family members are easy to deal with. It’s better to stay away from them in the future.

that's all.

Zhou Yuanwei said goodbye to Lin You and went back to report to Qin Li.

Lin You also left the mission hall amid everyone's astonished gaze.

When passing by Pei Yushan and his companions, one could clearly feel that these people's bodies trembled violently and their faces were filled with panic.

It was not until Lin You walked away that they finally breathed a sigh of relief and almost fell to the ground.

I was actually mocking the Third Prince just now!

Let alone Pei Yushan.

Even his companions felt a chill down their spines and fell into deep fear.

Judging from Zhou Yuanwei's attitude towards Lin You just now, if Lin You said anything bad about them in front of Zhou Yuanwei, they would probably have no chance of staying in the empire, and their territory might even be lost! How could they dare to stay here any longer? They immediately supported each other and fled from here. They were so fast that they disappeared in the blink of an eye.

After what happened today.

They probably wouldn't dare to cause trouble for Lin You again.

certainly.

Even if they really wanted to cause trouble for Lin You, Lin You was not afraid.

It just takes a little more effort.

After leaving the street.

Lin You did not stop and soon arrived at the teleportation square near the city gate and was teleported directly back to the territory.

Because he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to do something.

That is to upgrade Qing Gang to the seventh level first.

So after returning to the territory, he called Qing Gang and took out two experience balls.

[Do you want to use the experience ball (level 6) on the tree spirit general Qing Gang? ]

"yes."

With a response, the two experience balls disappeared and turned into streams of light that merged into Qing Gang's body.

Swish! The light came on.

[Congratulations, the Treant General Qing Gang's experience has reached the maximum value, meeting the conditions for upgrading to the seventh level. Would you like to upgrade? ]

"upgrade."

In an instant, Qing Gang's nearly ten-meter-tall body quickly grew taller, gradually growing to an exaggerated length of twenty meters.

The branches above his head were more luxuriant, and his limbs were several times thicker than before.

Successfully advanced to an oppressive ancient war tree! Next.

Lin You asked Qing Gang to stand in the hero transformation pool.

After a flash of light, they finally successfully transformed into heroic soldiers like Lingxi and the others.

[Name: Ancient War Tree Qing Gang (Royal Family)]

[Race: Plant]

[Level: Seventh level (97/2500)]

[Strength: 1000]

【Constitution: 1000】

[Agility: 755]

[Spirit: 755]

[Skills: Hardening, War Trampling, Savage Roar (Emits an angry roar, increasing all attributes of all friendly units by 30% for 30 seconds), Gravity Field (Controls gravity, forming a gravity field around, slowing down enemy movement speed and increasing the speed of friendly units within range.)]

[Dominate the battlefield: When this unit is present, the defense of all friendly melee units is increased by 20%]

[Introduction: A huge ancient tree born for war, charging into battle and tearing down the enemy's defenses. It is the most solid shield and forward in the war.]

The seventh-level Qing Gang finally fully demonstrated its amazing talent on the battlefield.

Not only does it have a short-term burst, it also has a gravity field skill more than other ancient war trees.

And its exclusive talent is also excellent, which greatly enhances the survivability of the front-line troops and provides excellent output space for the back row.

Coupled with a large group of melee tree monsters summoned by the ancient natural trees, it is truly terrifying.

Even soldiers such as the Demon King Dragon, Demon Queen Dragon, Blade Shadow Lion, and Cactus can gain benefits.

"In that case, I will give you a moss and thorn shield."

Lin You thought about it, and then let a seventh-level armored moss symbiotically grow on Qing Gang, and also arranged a seventh-level black tortoise thorn shield for it.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

In the blink of an eye, Qing Gang's attributes reached a very terrifying level.

In one fell swoop, it became his strongest melee soldier!

After doing all this, Lin You was finally satisfied and teleported back to the main city.

Then he took Lingxi and several flying soldiers out of the city, flew straight to the battlefield, and gradually left the main city behind.

It takes an hour and a half.

He finally crossed the checkpoint and arrived at a forest forty kilometers south of the checkpoint.

From a distance, you can see a vast expanse of black lake.

It should be the Blackwater Lake mentioned in the commission.

Without thinking too much, he simply ordered the Demon King Dragon under him to change direction and fly over there.

While passing over the mountains and forests, one could vaguely see several figures fighting in the forest, as if other lords were hunting monsters.

In order to avoid any trouble.

Lin You accelerated and flew over his head.

Not long after, he rushed out of the forest, came to the Black Water Lake, and landed steadily on the shore.

The cold wind from the lake kept blowing on his face, bringing a hint of chill.

It seems to be colder than expected.

"Um?"

As soon as he landed, Lin You couldn't help but let out a light exclamation, and his brows gradually frowned.

According to the commission, there should be many black-water crocodiles around the Black Water Lake.

But the current situation is that everything around is quiet, there is not even a shadow, let alone a black water crocodile.

Could it be that other lords got there first?

Or did he come to the wrong place? Lin You jumped off the back of the demon dragon in confusion and slowly walked to the lake.

Wherever the eyes looked, apart from the empty shore, there was only a vast expanse of black lake, and nothing else.

But if you look closely you will find something else.

There are still many traces of fighting around the lake, as if they were formed not long ago, and they don’t look like traces left by crocodiles at all.

There is something strange. Lin You's expression became more and more solemn, and he gradually retreated back to the soldiers.

He was a little worried that there might be some high-level beings lying in ambush here. It would be a bit not worth it if he lost his life for a commission.

Thinking of this, he immediately jumped onto the back of the demon dragon king, ready to conduct reconnaissance in the air first.

However, at this moment, something strange happened!

The originally calm lake surface suddenly produced huge waves.

Several terrifyingly powerful icicles suddenly rushed out from the black water nearby and shot towards him!

The speed of that icicle was really too fast.

Even faster than most seventh-tier troops!

He didn't even give the soldiers around him a chance to rescue him. In a blink of an eye, he was directly facing him, and at the same time, he was chilled to the bone, as if he was going to freeze him completely.

At the moment of life and death, Lin You twisted his body forcefully, and watched the ice cone pass by his shoulder by a hair's breadth.

Tear!

His clothes were torn and there was a cut on Lin You's shoulder. The coldness penetrated into his body, as if freezing his blood.

"Huh? You actually dodged it?"
