Chapter 72 Altar Keeper

Only Xiao Kang's eyes lit up.

For businessmen, anything that can be solved with money is nothing!

I had never thought about starting a business in Furnace Fortress. After all, this is a military headquarters, and many principality laws are difficult to interfere with. If you don’t have certain connections and want to do business here, you will only be chewed to the bones by those rude soldiers. There was nothing left. Now that the ghost master was so easy to deal with, the little fat man couldn't help but feel excited.

If you can start a business here, even if you only supply some daily necessities, the oil and water accumulated every month will not be comparable to that of your own small business!

Thinking of this, Xiao Kang's eyes couldn't help but shine brightly, and his chubby little hands suddenly placed on Lei Luo's shoulders, blinking to signal for peace.

"I come!"

Xiao Kang and the skinny old man looked at each other.

For a moment, the two of them seemed to have seen something in each other's eyes. They were like bastards looking at Mung Bean. They smiled strangely in unison, and in front of several people, they put their arms around each other and went to the side to talk secretly.

after awhile.

Xiao Kang returned to the team again, with a look of surprise and pride, as if he could not wait to end the mission immediately and fight.

The skinny old man also completely regained his master's temperament. His white hair was flowing and he said calmly: "Take your identity documents and go through the entry procedures with me."

After a while.

Lei Luo's identity certificate was clearly marked with the words "Altar Watcher on the Fifteenth Floor of the High Tower of Furnace Fortress". Most of the other four people also got relatively easy jobs, especially Xiao Kang, who actually became Logistics material reviewer.

Let this guy review logistics?

Lei Luo clearly remembered that a few months ago, Xiao Kang made a fortune and invited him to dinner. At that time, he asked him how he could make money. As a result, the guy laughed and moved the piece of meat from one plate to another. A plate and asked himself to see what was left in his hand.

"Oil?"

When Lei Luo said the word "oil", he still remembers the proud look in this guy's eyes.

There were two stone puppets standing at the door of the tower. They were two three-meter-tall sword-wielding guards. Their eyes were glowing red and exuding an extremely terrifying aura. After confirming the identity certificates on everyone's chests, the red light in the guards' eyes gradually extinguished. .

Everyone in the tower was in a hurry. When Lei Luo arrived on the fifteenth floor, a middle-aged female scholar looked over with a tired look on her face.

At the same time, Lei Luo looked at the huge altar in front of him in disbelief.

Tips: Found 48842 grams of Sky Breaking Stone, 3500 grams of Secret Magic Stone, 500 grams of Black Phoenix Blood, 211 grams of Purple Black Sand, 155 grams of Sky Snow Marrow, 98.5 grams of Sky Copper Essence, 15 grams of Mithril, 6 grams of Hundred Refining Essence, 5 grams of zero boundary stone...

In an instant, both of Lei Luo's eyes felt blinded by the dazzling light. How many gold coins are needed to build such an altar? Most of the construction materials are rare magic materials related to space attributes. There are actually 500 gold coins. To defeat the blood of the black phoenix, wasn't the black phoenix already extinct in ancient times?

The altar is ten meters in diameter and is etched with tens of millions of energy runes the size of pinheads, densely covering every corner.

For a moment, Lei Luo felt a little small and humble.

The middle-aged female scholar was a little fat. After confirming Lei Luo's identity, she said seriously: "Every day from ten o'clock in the morning to ten o'clock in the evening, you are responsible for being on duty here. You must always ensure that the energy crystals on the altar are sufficient. If anything happens, , or if anyone wants to use the altar, please notify me as soon as possible."

"OK."

After Lei Luo finished speaking, the middle-aged female scholar nodded and said, "You can call me Master Linda. I'm going to rest in the next room."

After such a simple explanation, the other party left in a hurry, leaving Lei Luo alone in the huge room.

This is my first mission in the Furnace Fortress. It lasts for ten days. After successful completion, you can get 3 points of military merit. There is almost no technical content at all, and there will be no danger. I want to come with other students who come with me. Most of the tasks I received were like this.

"However, such a time-consuming task is not suitable for me, so I should adapt to it temporarily."

At the end of the sentence, Lei Luo's voice turned into a low murmur.

With nothing to do, looking at the huge altar in front of him, Lei Luo couldn't help but think of the handwritten notes of the Sealand Principality named Xiaonan in the space box. The research on the knowledge of energy runes in the Glen Principality was naturally inferior to the Sealand Principality. Before, Xiaonan Since there was no physical reference for the explanation of etched energy runes in the handbook, Lei Luo had only a partial understanding of it after reading it for a long time. Now that there is such an altar in front of him, he has a ready-made reference.

time flies.

Lei Luo, who was studying the etching of the altar, was rubbing his eyes and wanted to look through the Ice Firebird Notebook. Suddenly, a bald man walked out of the door.

"Where is Master Linda? I want to apply for an energy tank!"

As he said that, the big man threw a mission scroll, which was stamped with a red sheep's head mark. A strange energy fluctuation was looming. If you look at it for a moment, you will feel as if you are being stared at by a sheep's head.

With a look of surprise, Lei Luo looked at this man again with a solemn expression.

Lei Luo felt terrible power from this bald man wearing metal armor!

"please wait for a moment."

After a while, Lei Luo invited Linda out of the side room, holding a magic wand and staring at the bald man in front of him.

"Are you sure you want to spend 2,200 points of military merit to perform an energy tank? After the energy tank, although it can help you upgrade to the level of a charge fighter, it will completely destroy your potential and your vitality will be greatly depleted."

"I am sure!"

The bald man standing on the altar looked ferocious.

"I'm going to stuff that bastard's head into his ass + hole with my own hands!"

Linda said nothing more and personally changed the energy crystals inlaid around the altar. As the tens of millions of runes on the altar gradually glowed faintly, the majestic mysterious energy gathered towards the bald man, who let out a murderous sound. The sound of pain was like a pig, and a large amount of blood stains were secreted from the pores of the skin.

The process lasted for about half a minute.

After the altar returned to calm again, the man who was still strong and ferocious before was now completely sluggish, his eye sockets were sunken, and he was lying on the altar breathing heavily, his skin seemed to have aged ten years.

"After he goes out, replace the energy crystal with a new one and clean the altar."

Linda returned to the nearby cabin to rest.

"The fortress tower actually possesses such an ability. It is probably the technology that the liberal scholars of the military need to create for the war."

Lei Luo supported the collapsed bald man, his eyes thoughtful.

Apprentice, official, charge, earth, sky, imagine the strength of the silver-armored captain at the official fighter level, but in front of the charge fighter who masters fighting spirit, the official fighters are just a group of toddlers.

It was completely dark outside.

The fortress was more lively at night than during the day. The rude men were full of energy and had to have some fun with the tavern girls. Drunk fights also happened.

A tall female student walked into the room with a little gray squirrel standing on her shoulder. At first glance, she looked like a very clever little guy.

"You came here today to hand over the duty, right?"

"Uh-huh!"

After Lei Luo put away the books, he stood up from the chair and suddenly smiled and said: "Hello, senior sister."

Greeting the tall female student's puzzled gaze, Lei Luo said: "During the freshman ceremony a few months ago, before you and my senior sister Bai Ling went to the Magic Eagle Forest to collect specimens, we met in the square."

This girl was actually a third-year student with Bai Ling.

"Bailing is your senior sister? You are Lei Luo!"

The girl's eyes lit up, and she looked surprised when she saw Lei Luo nodded in recognition.

"Keke, that senior sister of yours has been mentioning you in our ears, saying you are good and that, and telling us to take good care of you when we meet you outside. I didn't expect that I actually bumped into you. It's rare. You still remember me! My name is Yaqian, you can call me Sister Yaqian from now on!"

"Sister, your beauty will never be forgotten by anyone who sees it."

After more than half a year of hard work in the Black Widow Pharmacy, Lei Luo is no longer the shy young man he once was, and he flattered and teased him.

"Keke, your senior sister didn't say you were so glib and wanted to pick up your senior sister outside."

Although Yaqian said this, her face was very happy.

"You are here to earn military merit and complete the upgrade assessment, right? There are many first-year and second-year students coming to the fortress these days. Since your senior sister asked me to take care of you outside, you little guy is so glib and annoying. Like, there are a few things I have to remind you.”

Slowly, Yaqian's expression became serious.

"Although the High Tower of the Furnace Fortress has a certain degree of autonomy, since you choose to join the fortress, you must obey the orders of the military during the employment period. Once the war becomes tense, you will not be able to make your own decisions on many things, so I suggest that once you find that the war is tense, Immediately go take up a mission as a consultant magician for the mission corps, and be sure to avoid joining the frontal battlefield."

As if she was recalling something terrible, Yaqian's voice was a little unnatural.

"Otherwise, once we get on the frontal battlefield, you and I are basically the same. We can only survive by relying on luck. After all, for those strong people, it is very likely that the aftermath of a grudge will kill us accidentally. This is no joke. thing! And as far as I know, the nature of this war is completely different from the past. It is not out of the royal family’s wishes, and it is said to involve the hidden history of the two countries.”

Hidden history?

Lei Luo nodded seriously.

"But you don't need to be too nervous. We are all members of the Royal Academy of Natural Sciences of Fort St. Granville. The military generally does not let us carry out tasks that are too dangerous. Moreover, the military has absorbed many of its own scholars over the years. We have developed many war technologies that are not available in the Academy of Sciences, and they are worthy of our study."

At the end, Yaqian comforted Lei Luo in a relaxed manner, and the squirrel on her shoulder squeaked.
