Li Xiu didn't expect that the small problem that the old official mentioned would turn out to be like this.
If Li Xiu had not activated the magic suit and put it on, he would have even thought that it was just a pile of waste and could not be used at all.
Since it can be used, it doesn’t matter to Li Xiu.
"So you're a magic armor master. That's quite rare. A magic armor master is willing to take risks in the trial field. Your life as a magic armor master must be very difficult, right?" The Lord of Chongshan City mocked.
"City Lord, I think you should leave here now." Suddenly, a magic costume master who was standing in front of City Lord Chongshan said.
"Qingshan, what do you mean?" said the Lord of Chongshan City, looking at the magic costume master.
The magic costume master known as Qingshan said without turning his head: "This is very dangerous, you should leave here now."
"Dangerous? How dangerous is it? With that tattered magic armor, don't tell me that you two S-level and two A-level magic armor masters are here and you want me to escape." The Lord of Chongshan City said with a serious face.
"City Lord, don't listen to Qingshan's nonsense. He is old and confused. With us here, not to mention one shabby magic armor master like this, even if there are ten of them, they will have no way out. You two protect the city lord, and I will deal with him. Since Qingshan is so scared, let him stay here." Another S-level magic armor master Heiwu said.
As he spoke, the black mist turned into a black shadow, and two black blades appeared in his hands, slashing towards Li Xiu who was standing there like a phantom.
The speed of the black fog was so fast that it covered a distance of more than ten meters in the blink of an eye. The magic light gushed out from behind the magic armor, pushing his body forward at an incredibly fast speed.
For ordinary magic armor masters, facing such a speed, even if their brains can react, their bodies and magic armor cannot keep up with the brain's reaction, and they can only watch their bodies being cut by the black light blades of the black fog.
Black Mist is too confident in his own speed. Even among the S-level magic suits, the speed of Black Mist's magic suit is top-notch. There are not many S-level magic suits that can compete with Black Mist in speed.
Bang!
But the moment the black fog rushed in front of Li Xiu, he felt as if his head was struck by lightning, and his face hit the ground heavily.
"boom!"
Dust flew up and after it dispersed, only Li Xiu's leg wrapped in the magic costume was seen stepping on the back of the black fog's head.
The whole body of Black Wu was sunk into the ground. He seemed to be struggling hard, but he couldn't get up.
The Lord of Chongshan City immediately stepped back in horror. That was an S-level black fog, and it was stepped on by someone. What kind of monster was this?
"Did I allow you to go?" Li Xiu said, and suddenly moved. He stepped on the black fog and exerted force. Magic light burst out from the soles of his feet, like the thrusters of a rocket, pushing Li Xiu's body up and rushing towards the retreating Lord of Chongshan City.
"Stop him, stop him for me, Qingshan, stop him." The Lord of Chongshan City had completely lost the momentum of controlling everything just now, and he retreated while shouting.
Two A-level magic armor masters sprayed magic light at Li Xiu in the air, but Li Xiu was like a freely flying seagull. Even with only one leg spraying magic light to propel him, he still passed through the magic light spray lightly and gracefully, and flashed past the two A-level magic armor masters.
A blood mark suddenly appeared on the waists of the two A-level magic armor masters, the magic armor on their waists was shattered, and they fell down.
Qingshan stood in front of Li Xiu, staring at him with his eyes fixed. The magic light condensed in his hands and turned into a green light shield, trying to block Li Xiu's attack.
Li Xiu rushed towards the light shield without any pause, with his five fingers hooked like a hook, and was the first to hit the light shield.
Snap!
In just a moment, Li Xiu's five fingers with magic light directly shattered the light shield, and without stopping, he grabbed the head of the S-level magic armor master Qingshan, pressed his head to the ground, and pushed him more than a hundred meters away, leaving a deep groove on the ground.
The Lord of Chongshan City was so scared that his soul was terrified. That was the most powerful skill of the Qingshan Magic Armor, the Qingshan Shield. Even if you were attacked by S-level magic light continuously for an hour, it would be difficult to break through.
How could it be shattered by just five fingers? The Lord of Chongshan City finally realized what a terrifying existence he had provoked.
The two S-class and two A-class magic armor masters were like chickens and dogs in front of Li Xiu. The Lord of Chongshan City had never thought that an S-class magic armor master would be so fragile and so vulnerable.
"You can't kill me." Looking at Li Xiu who was approaching like a devil, the Lord of Chongshan City gave up on escaping and turned to shout at Li Xiu.
"Why can't I kill you?" Li Xiu asked lightly while still walking towards the Lord of Chongshan City.
"The Lord of Hongsha City is my brother-in-law. If you kill me, you will be the enemy of the entire Southern Cross Federation. Are you sure you want to do this?" The Lord of Chongshan City continued, "You don't have to do this. As long as you don't kill me, all the gems and magic cores in the City Lord's Mansion will belong to you. Don't you like to play around and be a trialist? I can tell my brother-in-law that you can go to any trial gate you want, so I will pay for all the expenses..."
"It sounds great." Li Xiu stopped and said with a smile.
"It's really good. You can tell me whatever you want and I can give you anything..." Seeing that Li Xiu seemed to be moved, the Lord of Chongshan City quickly continued to promise more things.
Bang!
A beam of demonic light directly blew up the head of the Lord of Chongshan City, and then his body slowly fell down.
Li Xiu retracted his finger, without even looking at the body of the Lord of Chongshan City, and turned to look outside the door. He saw that the soldiers outside the door had already died or run away, only A Fei and Sha Chu were still outside the door.
"Hehe, if I had known it was so simple, why would I have wasted time transforming your magic costume? I could have just killed you directly." Ximen Guan appeared from somewhere and said with a smile as he walked into the City Lord's Mansion.
"I don't have the habit of killing people and robbing." If the Lord of Chongshan City had not insisted on seeking death, Li Xiu would not like to use force.
"That's right. You are alone. No matter how powerful you are, you are still just one person. No matter how powerful a magic costume master is, it is impossible for him to be the enemy of the entire Southern Cross Federation." Ximen Guan seemed to agree with Li Xiu's statement, but he changed the subject and said, "But that is when you are wearing an ordinary S-level magic costume. If you wear my S-level magic costume, even if all the magic costume masters of the Southern Cross Federation come to kill you, you will not be defeated. Do you want to consider wearing my magic costume in the future..."
"You'd better find your magic suit first." Li Xiu said as he walked into the City Lord's Mansion.
He had no idea about Ximen Guan's magic armor, but he had a lot of ideas about the treasury of the Lord of Chongshan City.
Several people rushed into the City Lord's Mansion, ignoring the servants and women who were fleeing in panic, and started searching the mansion directly.
The result disappointed them. The property of the Lord of Chongshan City did not seem to be very rich. He only had a batch of black spinel crystals in stock. There were only a few other rubies, sapphires and the like, and they were not very big.
In fact, the Lord of Chongshan City had almost used up all his savings in order to complete Ximen Guan's magic suit, and now he really had no money left.
Li Xiu only harvested a batch of black crystals, and Ximen Guan finally found his magic suit.
Below the City Lord's Mansion is a huge underground laboratory, which is filled with magic costume researchers captured by City Lord Chongshan. They were imprisoned in the underground laboratory to study and repair Ximen Guan's magic costume.
When Li Xiu and his companions saw the magic suit, it was placed in a huge transparent container filled with unknown substances.
The magic suit was immersed in **, and was connected to many filaments like neurons, with each filament transmitting and flashing rays of light continuously.
When Li Xiu saw the magic costume, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
He had seen many magic costumes, but this kind of magic costume was the first time he had seen it.
The magic suit is actually armored suit. All the magic suits Li Xiu has seen are in the style of armor, but the styles of armor are slightly different.
But Ximen Guan’s magic suit is different. It is not armor, it looks like a piece of clothing.
The black one-piece suit fluttered slightly in the container, looking as soft as silk.
"Is this thing really a magic suit?" Lian Shachu couldn't help but ask.
"How about it, is it shocking enough? This is a magic suit that only I can make. Now those crappy magic suit laboratories and crappy researchers are all rubbish. How can they be compared with me, Ximen Guan? They are not even worthy of carrying my shoes." Ximen Guan said proudly.
Ximen Guan does have the capital to be proud of, but when these words come out of his mouth, it makes people feel very uncomfortable.
"What a piece of junk this is. Whoever thought of such a method to deal with my magic suit is such an idiot." Ximen Guan scolded those researchers so much that they trembled in fear.
While cursing, he opened the container, tore off the thin threads connecting the magic suit, and took out the magic suit that looked like a jumpsuit.
The black jumpsuit looked extremely soft, but after Ximen Guan let go, the jumpsuit actually stood there like a person, which looked weird and inexplicable.
It's like an invisible person wearing clothes. You can only see the clothes floating in the air, but you can't see the person inside.
The overall style of this magic costume is like a mysterious wizard wearing a cloak, with the face also covered by black gauze. The only part of the whole suit that is exposed is the glasses.
Ximenguan explained: "The eyes are the part I didn't complete at the time, because I had to consider entering the Gate of Trials in the future, so ordinary materials would definitely not work. I couldn't find the right materials, and in the end I was imprisoned before I could complete it."
After a pause, Ximen Guan continued, "City Lord Chongshan wanted to get the S-level magic core from the S-level trial in the Hero Trial Field, probably for the final eye part. Unfortunately, he didn't know that I had already tried it before. The S-level magic core obtained from the Hero Trial Field is not suitable for making the eyes of this magic suit."
"Don't worry about those things for now. Fix my magic suit for me first. Look what you have done to it." Li Xiu said, pointing at the Ghost Face Magic Suit.
"I haven't completed the transformation yet. If you had just rushed into the City Lord's Mansion at the beginning, there wouldn't be so much trouble." Ximen Guan said.
"Fix it for me quickly." Li Xiu packed the Ghost-Faced Demon into a box and threw it to Ximen Guan.
The Lord of Chongshan City is most likely the brother-in-law of the Lord of Hongsha City. There is no guarantee that the Lord of Hongsha City will not send people to Chongshan City to seek revenge after hearing about the murder of his brother-in-law. The Ghost-faced Demon must be repaired as soon as possible.
"Why bother repairing it? Just wear my magic costume. Although the eyes are not fixed yet, it is definitely many times better than yours." Ximen Guan muttered and took the opportunity to persuade.
Li Xiu pretended not to hear. He had sworn a solemn oath, so of course he couldn't break his oath easily.
"What are your plans for the future?" Sha Chu came to Li Xiu and asked with a smile.
"It seems you have some ideas?" Li Xiu asked back.
"Chongshan City is surrounded by deep mountains and jungles. It is located in a no-man's land between Guyue City and Hongsha City. It is not too far from the area of Tailuo City. It would not be a bad thing if we can occupy it. The batch of black spike crystals in your hand can only play the greatest role here." Sha Chu said.
Li Xiu also had the same idea. There were ready-made trial gates and black crystals here, so there was no need to look for them everywhere. He just needed to improve his physical fitness here and then go directly back to the Haitian Trial Field or go to the Purgatory Gate.
"You used to run the family business, so you should be good at internal affairs. Please help me sort out the relationships in the city first." Li Xiu directly threw the most troublesome problem to Sha Chu.
"As long as you can control the situation, these are not a problem." Sha Chu laughed.
Sha Chu was very efficient and quickly stabilized the situation and signed new contracts with the merchants in the city.
As for the residents of Chongshan City, there are actually not many residents. This city was built directly by digging out the mountain, and there are no indigenous people at all. The residents are basically businessmen who signed contracts with the Lord of Chongshan City before coming to Chongshan City and then opened shops in Chongshan City.
As long as there is money to be made, those businessmen don't care who the city lord is, as long as they can make money.
Many people are still secretly wondering how long the new Lord of Chongshan City can stay here.
The previous Lord of Chongshan City was the brother-in-law of the Lord of Hongsha City. Most merchants came to this desolate mountain area to do business with him because of his status. Otherwise, who would come to such a ghost place to do business.
Fortunately, the Trial Gate attracts outsiders to Chongshan City in an endless stream, so their business is pretty good.
Most people were wondering how long it would take for the Lord of Red Sand City to send someone to kill the new Lord of Red Sand City.
The main problem is that there is not even a single soldier in the City Lord's Mansion. The soldiers who came before had all run away long ago. Even if they had not all run away, few people would be willing to follow Li Xiu.
No matter how powerful Li Xiu is, he is only one person. No matter how powerful a magic armor master is, can he defeat the magic armor master army of Red Sand City?
To Li Xiu's surprise, the Qingshan Magic Armor Master who was injured by him did not leave Chongshan City, but instead came to Li Xiu on his own initiative.
"Why didn't you leave?" Li Xiu asked Qingshan Magic Armor Master.
Heiwu and the other two A-level magic armor masters were all killed by Li Xiu with one blow. However, Qingshan was not killed by Li Xiu with one blow. It was unexpected that he did not run away, but he dared to come back to see Li Xiu.
"Where can I go?" Qingshan took off his magic costume and revealed his true face. He was a young man in his thirties. He looked gentle and polite, but now he had a bitter face. He continued, "I was sent by the Lord of Red Sand City to protect him. Now he is dead, and the other three magic costume masters who protected him are also dead. If I run back alone, the wife of the Lord of Red Sand City will definitely not let me go, considering her character."
"Do you want to stay?" Li Xiu asked Qingshan.
"If you're willing, I'd like to follow you," Qingshan said.
"Aren't you afraid that the Lord of Hongsha City will come back for revenge?" Li Xiu said to Qingshan with interest.
"I am afraid, but I think you can solve this problem. Among all the magic armor masters I know, except for God, you may be the strongest. It is impossible for the Lord of Hongsha City to send a large number of magic armor masters to Chongshan City without caring about the safety of the main city. If only one or two magic armor masters come, even if the magic armor master ranked fourth in the world under Hongsha City comes in person, I don't think he can win." Qingshan analyzed.
"If you are willing to stay, then stay. I happen to need some help here." Li Xiu did not refuse.
Even if he wants to be a spy, it doesn’t matter. Spies can do the job just as well. Just use him as a laborer first.
"You killed the Lord of Chongshan City and occupied Chongshan City?" Chu Jun sent a message.
"yes."
"Are you still a magic costumer?"
"yes."
"You're not going to run away?"
"No."
"Please save a seat for me in the City Lord's Mansion. I will be there the day after tomorrow evening."
"good."
Li Xiu found some information in the City Lord's Mansion, all about the Brave Trial Field, many of which were maze maps drawn by different trialists.
It’s just that many maps drawn by trial participants are wrong. If you analyze these maps, the more you analyze, the more wrong you will find.
The maps that are more valuable for reference are basically from the same person, which can be seen from the way they are drawn.
"Li Xiu, the trial participant who wanted to kill us in the maze said outside that he wanted to see you." The bandit pushed the door open and interrupted Li Xiu's research.
"Let him in." Li Xiu probably had guessed what Ye Yuzhen was here for.
"Ahem, Lord City Lord, I was wrong before. I didn't recognize a great man. You can punish me or punish me as you like." When Ye Yuzhen came in and saw Li Xiu, he immediately put on an attitude of asking for forgiveness.
"Do you want to stay in Chongshan City and continue exploring the dark maze?" Li Xiu said lightly.
"Your Excellency the City Lord is wise. My abilities are most suitable for the Dark Maze. I am still a capable person here. If I go to other trial fields, most of my abilities will be wasted. If you, the City Lord, don't mind, I am willing to serve you." Ye Yuzhen saluted quickly.
"You can stay, but you have to take part in the next trial." Li Xiu said calmly.
"This..." Ye Yuzhen's face suddenly changed. He also knew that the next trial would probably be S-level. Even for him, he had no confidence that he could come out alive.
"There is no such thing as something good that can be obtained without hard work in this world. I won't hold it against you for what happened before, but if you haven't made any contribution, why should I let you stay and continue to enjoy those benefits? Next time I will also enter the trial, and it's up to you to decide whether to go or not." Li Xiu looked at Ye Yuzhen and said.
Ye Yuzhen's expression changed constantly, and after a long while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll go."
