Chapter 497 The Minecart Was Robbed and Arrived at Bosbon [Anti-Theft, Make up for the Lack of No. 4] [5K]

The flying height of the griffin is not low.

Basically, they fly in the altitude range of 2000 to 4000 meters.

This distance has exceeded the range of most ground weapons and arrow towers.

At the same time, it is also the most energy-saving height range.

Continuing to increase the height will only add additional physical exertion.

Those violent air currents and gusts high in the sky are a big factor.

In addition, the higher the flight altitude, the lower the temperature.

Flying at an altitude of 10,000 meters for a while, a layer of ice crust will condense on the wings.

Don't look at the wind and sunshine on the ground, but it is completely different at high altitude.

It should be emphasized that griffins can fly at high altitudes.

Take Eagle sauce as an example, there is no problem in raising the limit to more than 10,000 meters.

It's just that it can't last long at such a high altitude.

The consumption of physical energy is several times higher than that in the height range from 2000 meters to 4000 meters.

And that's not even counting the airflow and cold.

So this height is the most suitable height for griffins to fly.

In this case, its physical strength can be greatly preserved, which is equivalent to maximizing its endurance.

In fact, the air riding beast is not much different from those planes in the earth.

That is, one is flesh and blood, and the other is a product of steel.

One battery life depends entirely on physical strength, and the other depends on fuel supply.

Eagle sauce has its own set of optimal ways to deal with this, which is also an innate instinct.

...

Just after Zong Shen and the others left.

Dozens of ox carts and carriages came from west to east.

These carriages carry the flag representing Bosbon.

But not all magic flags are just ordinary flags.

They passed through the village of Sitano and were rushing towards Zongshen's territory.

Next to the convoy were five or six squadrons of light cavalry.

It was Baron Bezos' son Hadrow who led the team.

This guy had just returned to Bangcheng to rest for a day, and the next day he took the initiative to ask Ying to lead a team to escort these refugees.

He is now trying his best to please his father.

For fear that Baron Bezos would not be willing to take him to the giant city of Rentax to make an appointment.

So he took the initiative to shoulder the escort mission this time.

In fact, the preparation of refugees is not so easy.

They didn't set off until the morning after Zong Shen left.

After all, there are three or four hundred people who need to move, and dozens of ox carts and carriages are mobilized.

The speed of trekking on the road is also very limited. It is not bad to be able to travel for more than ten hours a day and maintain a speed of more than ten kilometers per hour.

Because of this, it took five or six days to get here.

Along the way is the Shang Road, which is the path Zong Shen took when he first went there.

In order to avoid being harassed by rogues, Hadrow volunteered to lead the team.

Zong Shen had already left the territory, and Ba Jie was tied up in the second-order stable.

Hadrow's coincidental escort may have to pass by once again.

But in any case, these refugees are a great supplement to the population of Zongshen's territory.

After mastering these three or four hundred refugees, the total population of the territory will enter the thousand-digit level.

This also indicates that the territory has become a settlement of village-level units.

Don't underestimate the village level, this is a threshold.

At present, the population size of most of the lords' territories is hovering in the hundreds of digits.

A slightly better-developed one like Jiang Yi has only about 200 people.

It is not that there are no people who can reach the scale of hundreds or thousands, but very few.

Even if some lords are very lucky, it is not easy to quickly grasp such a large population.

The problem of domination that comes with population growth alone is not easy to solve.

At least Zong Shen can now eat these three or four hundred people perfectly.

Both the size of the territory and the corresponding dominance value are suitable.

With the [Tribune's Ring (Purple)], Mariel is enough to accept these farmers.

In addition, there are some heroes in the territory who also have empty dominance values.

For these refugees, there may not be only ordinary farmers.

If you are lucky, you can still find some talents among the three or four hundred people.

It's best to pick out some new hero-level talents from it.

This thing is also like opening a blind box, aptitude, talent, are all unknown factors.

In the eyes of the aborigines, they do not have these particularities.

But for the lords, the nature is different.

There are many places to choose from here.

According to the speed of the convoy, they still need at least two to three hours to reach Zongshen's territory.

Near the living area, the magic flag has long been hung on one of the elemental arrow towers.

There is absolutely no problem in meeting and contacting the two sides.

...

In the mine, the kobold chief Dutra has ordered.

It made the puppies stop digging that relic passage.

The current location has not yet found the recovery of the undead, and has not encountered other crypt races.

That's proof that things aren't too bad.

The overall operation of the mine is still very stable, and no one is disturbed near the entrance for the time being.

But here is a hidden danger after all, whether it is above or below ground.

Zong Shen understood this in his heart.

There are a large number of sealed ruins underground, which may contain powerful undead monsters or crypt monsters.

There are idle lords on the ground, these days are just the interval between challenges, suitable for going out to explore.

God knows if there will be any lords wandering around here.

In the past, the mine had many "natural obstacles".

When you arrive at the entrance, there is a blood-toothed boar Bajie.

Deep inside there are large groups of arachnids and kobolds.

Now these obstacles have been cleared by Zong Shen.

If there is a lord who finds the mine, and explores it deeply.

I am afraid that the kobolds, crypt demons, and double-headed hellhounds left in the mines will be treated as monsters.

But even these kobolds, hellhounds and the like are not something that ordinary lords can beat.

The four hellhounds alone are equivalent to four commander-level monsters.

And it's still the kind of commander-level monster with strong chaotic damage.

Although two or three hundred kobolds are weak individually, they still have some fighting power when gathered together.

Zong Shen had already understood this during the Crypt Challenge period.

The mine was basically safe until he made the next round of layout.

The scattered lords couldn't get in at all, and if the legions were grouped together, they couldn't break through the mines quickly. As long as there was an hour of resistance time, Dutra would be able to ask the territory for help.

In the few days of the winter season, the mine was closed in advance because of the air outlet.

In addition, various heating equipment such as stoves and thermal balls play a role, so that the temperature in the mine is much higher than the outside world.

This is also the only place where there is no downtime.

Kobolds in fur jackets can still mine.

Only the efficiency will be slightly reduced.

Therefore, a lot of mineral resources have been accumulated these days.

All were placed in the original warehouse area.

Zong Shen had left a load-bearing mecha as a means of transport for this place before.

Now that it is fully loaded, it has entered the stage of preparation.

The weight-bearer mech takes three hours to make a round trip, and it only takes half an hour to fill it up because Dutra uses the carry-on storage compartment to load it.

Plus unloading, storage, and sorting after arriving at the territory.

It will take five or six hours to transport a full package.

The inventory accumulated in the past few days needs almost four to five vehicles to be fully transported.

This is not a small project, so Dutra immediately started arranging transportation after dealing with the problem of the mine.

After being fully loaded, the load-bearing mecha quickly drove out along the spacious mine road.

Head towards the territory northwest of the mine.

The driver was a kobold prophet.

It's not the first time it's been tasked with transporting ore in a load-bearing mech.

Along the way, you pass through the ruins of Azshara's walls.

On the way, it is relatively peaceful, and you will not even encounter other lords' territories on a certain route.

Half an hour later, it had driven past the ruins of Azshara's walls.

This is also a demarcation line, continue to move towards the northwest, and you can reach it in about forty or fifty minutes.

The movement of the weight-bearer mech when driving is not small.

A few minutes after the crawler rumbled across the ground and the dust disappeared.

From the ruins of the city wall on the side, a head poked out of the wall that had not completely collapsed.

"There is nothing left of such a huge ruined city tower."

"I don't know where those damned guys found the ruins."

This is a blond lord who seems to have come to explore the ruins of the city walls.

But obviously he didn't have any substantial gains.

After he climbed out of the damaged tower, more than a dozen soldiers climbed out one after another.

There are seven or eight giant wolves and a few horses on the side, obviously bringing wolf cavalry.

The lord stood on the tower, stretched his waist, and looked at him casually.

When he looked to the northwest, he happened to see the weight-bearer mecha that had just driven less than two kilometers.

From his distance, some details can still be vaguely seen.

"what?"

"What is this?"

"Something like a tracked truck..."

"Look at it!"

He quickly made a decision, and with a wave of his hand, he jumped down from the ruins of the castle tower, strode on to the giant wolf and horses and chased after the weight-bearer mecha!

Don't look at the fact that someone from Zong has already seen so much about the load-bearing mecha, but for other lords, this is still a rare thing, and magic energy machinery is not as popular as cattle, sheep and horses.

The maximum speed of the weight-bearer mech is only 30 kilometers per hour.

Ordinary grassland horses can reach a maximum speed of 60 kilometers per hour, and giant wolves can be even faster.

Under such a speed difference, the blond lord quickly caught up, and used the wolf cavalry to catch the net to control the kobold prophet who was in charge of driving, thereby stopping the load bearer mecha.

When he saw that the cargo hold of the load bearer mecha was full of ore, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Items like this, unlike buildings, cannot be seen belonging.

There are more than 20,000 ores in this batch, most of which are iron ore, and many high-energy derivatives such as copper, mithril, fine gold, elemental crystals, magic crystals, and magic gems.

This is an irresistible temptation for any lord.

"Hahaha!"

"Kill this kobold!"

"It's finally time for me, Demps Morton, to rise!"

The blond lord had a hysterical smile on his face.

This batch of ores meant no less to him than in the earth, an ordinary person suddenly got hundreds of millions of assets.

He couldn't even think about where the ore came from and where it was going.

"No, wait, don't kill it!"

"Tie up first!"

Just as his wolf cavalry was about to strike, Demps Morton suddenly stopped his men.

Because he thought of one thing, in case this batch of resources belongs to a certain lord.

Then the strength of that lord must be extremely powerful. If they kill the kobold, the other party can read the relevant attack information.

To be on the safe side, it is better to catch them alive.

After waiting for him to bring this batch of ore back to the territory, store some of it, and then sell some of it, the ghost knows that he stole the batch of ore.

At least from his knowledge, he couldn't think of who could be him.

After quickly capturing the kobold prophet alive.

Demps Morton himself sat in the load bearer.

After ten minutes of research on the spot with a guilty conscience, he really mastered the driving skills.

He drove the weight-bearer mecha like this, with his subordinates, and returned to the territory.

And Zong Shen, who had already traveled halfway, didn't even know that the ore was hijacked.

There is a time difference of at least five or six hours.

Dutra would only notice when the weight-bearer mecha failed to return after a timeout.

But Demps Morton's belief that it's seamless will ultimately be deceiving himself.

Because, not all lords are called Zong Shen!

...

This thing is like a primer.

What kind of storm will eventually brew, it is not yet known.

As the saying goes, if you often walk by the river, how can you not wet your shoes.

It's inevitable that this will happen, it's just a matter of sooner or later.

But our Zong someone is still busy on the road.

Eagle sauce was extremely fast, and it took almost forty minutes to reach the desert area where the shark lizards were rampant.

That is, where the space node in the unknown area is located.

Looking down from the air, the eyes are full of yellow sand.

Occasionally there are black rock masses exposed on the ground.

From a high-altitude perspective, the trade route is like a brown ribbon that gradually spreads.

There is only one black spot on the ground for passers-by. The carriage and the ox-cart are slightly more conspicuous, but they are also small.

Overall, the air tour was pretty good.

Everyone is also very safe, because there is no danger along the way.

The overlord-level dragon-veined gryphon with such a large size and powerful combat power like Yingjiang is a bully wherever he goes, and most of the ferocious beasts are unavoidable when they encounter them.

So there is no danger at all along the way.

After about an hour and ten minutes, Eagle Sauce had already arrived at the periphery of Bosbon.

This guy's size is too large, Zong Shen is afraid that the Bangcheng army will misunderstand.

In addition, the defensive arrow tower matrix and the sentry tower where the crossbowmen are stationed in the city are not vegetarian.

If he dared to let Eagle sauce land directly without communicating, he would probably be shot into a sieve.

So Zong Shen wisely chose to let Eagle sauce land outside the city.

Let the accompanying soldiers take care of Ying-chan, and he entered the city alone.

Wait until he has contacted Baron Bezos before considering bringing them in.

This plan is the most appropriate.

Although the appearance of Eagle sauce is a bit scary, it is not enough to cause a sensation when someone is guarding it.

If you let it stay outside the city by itself, it will not work.

It is easy to be regarded as an invading monster to attract the attention of the city army.

Therefore, Zong Shen chose to let Yingjiang land about ten kilometers outside Bangcheng.

There are just a few clearings between the large fields of nearby farmland, allowing it to descend smoothly.

After landing, it really caught the attention of nearby farmers.

Fortunately, they settled down after seeing someone on the back of the big griffin.

The one who can ride this huge aerial beast is definitely a big power in the kingdom.

Zong Shen was the first to turn over and tell everyone his plan.

Leave them where they are and wait for him to respond.

Vereesa has a communication crystal on her body, so she can contact him quickly if there is any situation.

After settling down Yingjiang and everyone, Zong Shen took to the road.

The distance of more than ten kilometers is nothing, but if it is all on foot, it is still a bit uncomfortable.

This road is one of the main roads into the city, and the flow of people is not small.

Zong Shen walked quickly for a while and met a group of traveling merchants.

After spending 400 dinars, I bought a grassland horse from a traveling merchant.

It's an old horse, and it's not in very good shape. One leg is a little lame.

It stands to reason that it is not worth 400 dinars. Normally, a grassland horse that has just been slaughtered is only about 350.

This price is a small loss, but Zong Shen doesn't care.

He also has a net worth of more than one million dinars now, and he bought this horse just for temporary travel.

Riding this lame old horse, Zong Shen successfully entered the city in more than ten minutes.

After the experience of entering the city last time, he rode his old horse and walked towards the central area.

It was just after three o'clock in the afternoon, and the streets were full of pedestrians.

There are farmers with baskets on their backs and hawkers with wooden carts.

In this case, the horse can't walk fast either, and the actual speed is about the same as walking.

It took him half an hour to reach the central area.

As he rode his lame horse across the street dividing line, soldiers immediately surrounded him.

Zong Shen explained it a little, and saw the team leader who informed him last time again.

It was easy to enter the central area.

He declined the invitation to ride the carriage offered by the housekeeper who came to meet him.

Zong Shen insisted on riding his lame horse.

According to the butler, Baron Bezos happened to be in the castle.

The letter crow room on the other side of the castle.

Stepping on the grass in the central area, Zong Shen's mood also relaxed a lot.

Compared with the last time, Bosbang is still so prosperous.

Such a vibrant city, as long as there are no wars and other unexpected events, after hundreds of thousands of years of development, may be able to become a new giant city.

In a relaxed mood, he unknowingly came to the so-called Crow House.

The butler's reception ends here.

Zong Shen rolled over and dismounted, and put the reins on the ground stake beside him.

This is the back of the castle is also the place where the face is shaded.

After taking a look, he walked straight over.
