Volume 19, Chapter 106: Buy some Mountains to Play With

According to Ling's guess, what we are looking for should be a very powerful creature, and the origin of this guy should be related to heaven. After all, most of the Western creatures we have come into contact with before do not have the ability to change their body shapes, and even if they do Most of those who can transform can only switch between their true form and human form. They can rarely change their size or change into the appearance of other creatures at will. That type of creature is definitely extremely rare.

Since I guessed that the creature that got through this hole was a difficult guy, I had to make some complete preparations. If I rush in like this, I may not necessarily run into someone I can't handle on my own, but it's better to be prepared just in case. And if this guy is really powerful enough, it would be too wasteful to kill him directly. If he can be caught, whether it is to make a magic pet egg and trade it or do something else, it is better than killing him directly.

After analyzing the solution, I no longer rushed in. Instead, I turned around and called the guards outside to guard the entrance of the cave. Anyway, Bailang's nose has proved that the creature that attacked Xiao Longnu is in this cave, so it would be meaningless for our guards to guard the river mouth over there.

After arranging the guard matters, I left the cave here and went back to Essinger. After searching around, I finally found that the gold coin I wanted to pull over to help actually happened to be on a mission. Because there is a high possibility that the creature is an oriental creature, I wanted to ask the gold coin of the Taoist priest profession to help, but I didn't expect that she was not there. There is no other way, the gold coins are not there, so I have to ask others for help. However... After communicating with the God of War, I found that all the people suitable for this job are busy.

Although there are many people in our guild, the stalls are unfortunately not small, so everyone is very busy all day long. There is not much free time, but it is definitely not much, especially when encountering emergencies or large-scale wars. It will be very busy. Now our guild has just ended its invasion of Japan and its self-defense counterattack against Russia. It has just occupied the four cities in the underground river basin. We will have to fight another war with the Russians in the near future. So many things are piled together. Naturally, no one has time.

Indifferently, in addition to the players in our guild, the guild gods are also a good choice. However, it is a pity that none of the gods in our guild are free now. The information recorded in the source of divine power that we obtained before and the secret message from Heaven that we quietly copied need to be read and analyzed manually, and Vina and her group of guild gods are all busy with this now. There is no time to worry about anything else.

"Damn it! After all, our Frost Rose Alliance has hundreds of thousands of active members. With so many people, we can't find anyone who can help. It's really hard to have enough people when they are needed!"

"Actually, you don't have to limit your vision to people in your guild?" the Army God suggested.

"Outside the guild?" I was stunned for a moment, and then I came to my senses. "Damn it, why did you forget this?"

Being reminded by the God of War, I immediately remembered that I had just deceived a group of gods to come work here. Although the Jade Emperor has not yet given a clear answer, this matter is definitely a certainty, so if I do it now It's probably no problem to ask for people in the past. Of course, it's obviously not appropriate to just go there. It's better to find some excuse, and I have a very reasonable excuse now.

"Eh? Why are you here too?" As soon as I arrived outside the Nantian Gate, I ran into Mr. Polaris who was planning to go to Essinger to find me.

"Polaris-kun? What are you...?"

After hearing my question, Mr. Polar Star got down to business, and said directly without asking me what I was doing here: "Didn't you say you wanted to do business with Heaven? The Jade Emperor has approved it, and I'm planning to inform you. "

"Then you don't have to run away. I just have something to tell the Jade Emperor."

"Oh, then come with me."

The Jade Emperor was also very surprised when he saw me. After all, he had just asked Mr. Polar Star to go back and answer me. He didn't expect me to come right away. "First of all, I have to thank you for letting us get back the secret of heaven. Then, let's just forget about the previous unpleasantness."

Faced with the Jade Emperor's polite words, I naturally would not cause trouble for no reason. Although our status has improved now, we can't offend others by casually 'chaotically' for no reason, right? When the Jade Emperor said polite words to me, he was taking the initiative to show his kindness. If I were to be arrogant again, I would be mentally retarded.

"The Jade Emperor is too polite. Let's just pretend that the previous unpleasantness never happened. However, we need the Jade Emperor's support for future cooperation."

After hearing my words, the Jade Emperor nodded quickly and said: "You are talking about the gods from heaven going to your place to help, right? I have agreed, and I will strongly encourage those gods to go. This Xingjun did not follow you just now Tell me?"

"I've said it. I'm very grateful to the Jade Emperor for his support, and that's why I came here this time."

"Oh? What happened?" Upon hearing that I came for this matter, the Jade Emperor also became nervous. For him, this fairy employment plan has only advantages and no disadvantages. He can get benefits for free without having to pay anything. If such a good thing suddenly disappears, he will naturally not be happy.

Seeing how nervous the Jade Emperor was, I quickly explained: "It's not that something happened, but I suddenly thought that some specific implementation details need to be improved. I wonder if the Jade Emperor can be accommodating and allow us to occupy a piece of land in the heaven?" "

"Occupying a piece of land?" The Jade Emperor was confused by my jumping thinking. "What do you want the land in heaven for?"

"Oh, that's it." I explained to the Jade Emperor: "Although I said before that I welcome gods to take over tasks, the tasks of our guild are not unlimited. In case the immortals are too enthusiastic, our tasks If it cannot be allocated or some gods cannot find suitable tasks, wouldn’t it be a waste of time for the gods who came to pick up the tasks to do so?”

"That's right." The Jade Emperor nodded and said: "After all, it is not easy to go to the lower realm of the gods in our divine world. It is really not worthwhile if there is no mission to pick up."

"So I imagine that the Jade Emperor borrowed a piece of land to build a mission release center in Heaven. Although some of the gods in Heaven are scattered overseas, more than half live in and near Heaven. If a mission release center is built in Heaven, then these Immortals can take on tasks nearby. Even for scattered immortals, it’s easier to go to heaven than to go to my Isengard, isn’t it?”

"This method is indeed good." After the Jade Emperor finished speaking, he thought for a moment and said: "However, the internal structure of the Heavenly Court is built according to the laws of heaven. Adding or removing any building will destroy the entire formation, so there is no way to give it to the Heavenly Court. You established the mission release office. If the buildings in Heaven could be changed at will, the teleportation array that was built at the beginning would not be placed outside Nantianmen, right?"

After hearing what the Jade Emperor said, I also remembered it. The teleportation array that I built to connect to Heaven was outside the Nantian Gate of Heaven. It seemed that some gods had talked about the formation at the beginning, but I was not the one who built the teleportation array, so I didn’t know much about it in detail. information on this.

"Then Jade Emperor, do you think this...?"

The Jade Emperor smiled and said: "Don't worry, although you can't move inside the heaven, there is still no problem outside."

"Outside?" I was stunned for a moment and said: "But there are only clouds outside Nantianmen? Is it built at the gate of Nantianmen? We can plan to build this mission release area very big, but there are only two people outside Nantianmen. There is support within a range of ten meters, and there is air beyond that. It is no problem to build the teleportation array within such a small range, but if our mission release area is built, I am afraid that the entire Nantianmen will be blocked!"

"Of course I won't let you build it at the gate of Nantianmen." The Jade Emperor explained: "That's what I think. I plan to sell you a floating mountain first..." Seeing that I heard the word "sell", I was about to get angry. The Jade Emperor quickly explained: "Don't worry, the sale is just a symbolic sale. You only need to pay 100,000 crystal coins. I will not cheat you on this."

I was about to get angry but calmed down when I heard the price. Indeed, as the Jade Emperor said, this price cannot be considered a rip-off for me. Except for the ultra-small suspended mountain that is no larger than a standard football field, the value of any suspended mountain will not be less than 100,000 crystal coins. I have just said that the building I want to build is a very big building. Since the Jade Emperor also said that he wants to sell me the suspended mountain, it will definitely not be too small. This shows that the Jade Emperor really did not mean to trick me on this matter.

"This kind of price is nothing, but... Jade Emperor, can I buy a few more?"

I'm not pushing myself too far. I'm just asking about my purchase intention. If the Jade Emperor doesn't want to sell it, he doesn't have to sell it. The suspended mountain can be said to be an unsinkable aircraft carrier. I don’t need to explain how powerful it is, but everyone can understand it. Although our guild can also build suspension equipment, don’t forget it. Our guild's gravity resistance device consumes energy every moment from the moment it is activated. Although this consumption is barely acceptable, no matter how energy-saving an appliance is, it cannot completely consume no energy, right? Not to mention that the suspended mountain does not have the disadvantage that our guild's gravity resistance device cannot move once it is activated and can only be moved by a crawler array. The fact that the suspended mountain does not need to replenish energy is enough to make people yearn for it.

The Jade Emperor didn't have much reaction when he heard my words. Maybe he was considering cooperating with our guild in the future, so he also wanted to have a good relationship with me, so after just thinking about it for a moment, the Jade Emperor suddenly asked: "Do you want to buy more buildings not just to build the mission release center?" Bar?"

If the Jade Emperor is willing to sell the suspended mountain, its future use will definitely not be hidden from Heaven, so I didn’t want to hide it, and nodded directly: "Yes, the mission center only needs a slightly larger suspended mountain. I think Buy a few more to use as guild weapon platforms."

After hearing what I said, the Jade Emperor immediately said: "It's not that you can't sell it, it's just that the quantity can't be too much, and don't expect large floating mountains. At most, they can only be large individuals in small floating mountains. In addition, building Because the mission release center serves the immortals in heaven, I can give you an ultra-low price of 100,000 crystal coins, but the rest can only be at normal prices."

"As long as it can be sold."

"Then you go to Wanshan Forest with Mr. Polar Star and choose for yourself. Except for the one used to repair the mission release office, we will sell you three at most."

"Is three a little too little? Give me an auspicious number, maybe thirteen?" (Westerners think that thirteen is an unlucky number, but in rural China there is still a saying of thirteen Taibao, who think that thirteen is an unlucky number. A very auspicious number.)

The Jade Emperor was obviously used to my haggling. After hearing my words, he immediately stretched out four fingers and said, "I'll give you a seat. Everything goes as you wish. Isn't this auspicious?"

"What's the auspiciousness? It's true that four and four will go your way, but you didn't sell me forty-four. Just one four would mean death! Are you cursing me? No, add a little more, ten, right? Perfect. !"

The Jade Emperor thought for a moment and suddenly stretched out his hand and said: "Eight seats, exactly two fours, will make you completely happy. The pronunciation of eight also means making a fortune. Isn't it auspicious enough? Don't mess with me anymore." , this is the biggest concession.”

I made an estimate and found that the number was almost certain, so I nodded and said, "Happy cooperation."

After getting permission from the Jade Emperor, I went with Mr. Polar Star to the Wanshan Forest that the Jade Emperor mentioned. At first, I wondered why this place was called Wanshanlin and not Wanlinshan. After all, a forest consisting of 10,000 trees on a mountain is not an exaggeration, but a forest containing 10,000 mountains is a bit scary. However, when I saw the so-called Wan Shan Lin, I understood that this was completely a mistake on my part. Wanshan Forest actually doesn't have a single tree, and it's not a forest at all. Wanshanlin is basically an asteroid belt, but it is not in space, but in the divine world.

"Damn it, there are so many suspended mountains in heaven but they only sold me eight of them? Isn't the Jade Emperor too stingy?" The moment I saw those ten thousand mountains and forests, I felt like I had been deceived by the Jade Emperor. This place is densely packed with countless large and small suspended mountains from top to bottom. Looking at the density and area, it is estimated that there are not ten thousand but eight thousand suspended mountains here. Eight mountains here are really nothing. .

Mr. Polaris smiled when he heard what I said and said: "There are so many suspended mountains in heaven, so it doesn't mean that we will all sell them to you, right? It's pretty good that you can specially approve eight of them. Don't be too greedy!"

"Okay, okay, I know you are from Heaven, so I won't say bad things about Heaven to you. I'd better choose my mountain." After I said that, I flew forward, but only flew a few meters before I circled back. . "By the way, how do you calculate the prices of these mountains?"

After hearing my words, Mr. Polar Star flicked his whisk towards the other side of the mountain, and several black spots suddenly flew out from the mountains over there and quickly flew in front of us.

"The Great God of Wanlin Mountain is here. May I ask which god is here?" Although the other party did not know Mr. Polar Star, he could feel the power of Mr. Polar Star, so he spoke very politely.

Mr. Polar Star first showed the token given by the Jade Emperor, and then explained the matter. The mountain guardians immediately took me enthusiastically and flew into the mountains. According to what they said, as long as I choose which mountain I like, they can tell me the specific price.

Since Tianting has even arranged shopping guides, it will be much easier. With the help of these mountain gods who were familiar with the situation, I stated my requirements, and soon the eight small suspended mountains used in the guild and the large suspended mountain used to build the mission release office were selected.

Among the nine suspended mountains, the one at the mission release station is the largest and has the flattest top. The whole mountain is an inverted irregular cone. The top of the mountain is a basically flat open space, but the bottom is getting thinner and thinner. Because the top is very flat, there is almost no need for any treatment. You can build a house directly by simply leveling the ground with cement, and there is basically no need to clean it up.

Except for the mountain at the repair mission, the other eight mountains are obviously much smaller in size. The maximum cross-sectional area of ​​these eight mountains is only about 2,000 square meters, which is more than half smaller than the suspended mountain where the mission is released. The smallest one among them is only about three-thirds of the one where the mission is released. one. However, despite their small cross-sectional area, these eight mountains may be more suitable for me than the one at the mission release site.

The eight mountains I bought are to be built into aerial weapons platforms, not to be used as the foundation of floating cities, so the flat tops of the mountains are of little use to us. The structure of these eight mountains is different from the inverted cone of the mountain where the mission was released. They are all olive-shaped structures. The upper and lower ends of the mountains are pointed, and the middle part is the widest. Such a structure can facilitate us to build many launching ports on the mountain, and the staggered mountain can also provide a wider shooting angle for weapons such as forts, so the firepower intensity after completion will be greatly improved. Maybe slightly more than their much larger partner.

In addition to the mountain structure, the reason why I did not choose the big mountain for these eight suspended mountains, apart from the Jade Emperor's restrictions, another important reason is the issue of sports performance. For something as big as a suspended mountain, its mass must be astonishing after being equipped with various weapons. According to the principle of inertia, the greater the mass, the more difficult it is for an object to change its state of motion. To put it simply, it is difficult to start when it is stopped, and it is also difficult to stop when it is moving. And things in the air are not like cars on the ground that can brake. Suspended mountains in the air cannot rely on friction to slow down. Although air friction does have a decelerating effect, something with such a large mass needs to be stopped completely by air friction. So from the time we start braking to the time it really stops moving, it still has to travel hundreds of kilometers? Therefore, in order to take into account athletic ability while ensuring firepower, our suspended mountain must not be too large. A suspended mountain of one or two thousand square meters can be said to be the most appropriate size. No matter how small it is, if the firepower is too weak, the survivability will be reduced, and it will not be of much use if bought. No matter how big it is, the firepower and survivability will increase, but the super slow speed is unacceptable.

We had just chosen the suspended mountain here, and were about to ask the mountain gods about the price when we suddenly heard the voice of the God of War coming from the crystal communicator in our ears. "Ziri, come back quickly. Something happened to the cave you were guarding."
