Chapter 301: Innate Mining Sacred Body

Burning Sky Giant City, High Sky Tower.

This is a 100-meter-high tower standing in the city.

There is a mysterious room at the top of the tower.

Legend has it that there is a round table in that mysterious room, and many important decisions in Burning Sky Giant City were reached on this round table.

Therefore, many people call it a round table conference.

There is no fixed time for the round table meeting to start, but every time a major event occurs, the five major power groups in the giant city and the city lord's palace will start the round table meeting tacitly.

"Jiu Chi City has sent us a request for help. The fourth supreme elder, seventh elder, and ninth elder in their family have all died. In addition, more than 300 official members of the family have died. Jiu Chi City has asked us to dispatch Garrison application.”

Representatives of the Federation of Chambers of Commerce made recommendations at the meeting.

When the representative of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance said these words, the representative of the Elders Association immediately looked at him with strange eyes.

If these words were spoken by a member of the Chi family, he would still understand. After all, the Chi family of the Burning Sky Giant City and the Chi family of the Nine Red City are inextricably linked, and it is no longer a secret in the eyes of the higher-ups.

Just like the Burning Temple in Yanxing City and the Burning Temple in Burning City are as close as if they were wearing the same pair of pants.

But when did the people from the Chamber of Commerce Alliance get so close to the Chi family?

The representative of the Giant City Guards mocked: "I think this matter needs to be carefully discussed. Our proposal to garrison troops in Jiuchi City was opposed by the Chi family. At that time, the Chi family said that they could maintain the stability of Jiuchi City. This Why did you agree to it instead of thinking of our Giant City Guards when there was danger?"

The Senate representative glanced at the Giant City Guard representative,

There are no good people in this giant city guard. According to the division of power within the giant city, the giant city guard only has the right to command the army, but it does not have the right to issue military pay.

It's like having only the barrel of a gun and no money bag.

This is also a means of checks and balances.

After all, there are millions of active beast masters in the giant city guard. If retired beast masters are included, this number is even more exaggerated.

With such a powerful force in the hands of the top few in the giant city's guard, other forces in the city are naturally worried.

But there are policies above and countermeasures below. This method is still very useful at the beginning.

But over the years, someone in the giant city guard army has come up with an ingenious method - collecting military expenses!

The giant city guards were sent to garrison other cities in Burntian Territory, nominally claiming to provide them with local protection.

Since protection is provided, it is reasonable to charge some protection fees!

Your brothers have provided you with protection. The younger brother should be more sensible. If you are not sensible, the millions of beast masters in Burning Sky City will "reason" with you.

Not to mention, this trick really works wonders.

Although there were many obstacles at the beginning of the implementation, the city lord happened to be someone who came out of the Giant City Guard Army. With his help, the Giant City Guard Army project was officially implemented.

And that city lord also won great support from the giant city guards with his actions.

His voice has greatly increased during his tenure, which has allowed his family to continue to grow, becoming the third largest family in Burning Sky City in one fell swoop.

It also changed the original structure of two major families in Burning Sky Giant City into three major families.

This move of the garrison stationed abroad provided a large amount of funds to Burning Sky Giant City, and the problem of military expenditure was greatly solved.

It also greatly eased the internal finances of the giant city.

Of course, what's more important is that the protection fees collected are all handed over directly to the Giant City Guards, which is equivalent to the money bag being once again controlled by the very few people within the Giant City Guards!

With military power, there is also a money bag.

The voice of the Giant City Guards within the Burning Sky Giant City has also been greatly improved. Naturally, their ambitions have increased, and there was even a situation where they even exaggerated and forced the city lord's palace.

Later, other forces in the city joined forces with other city lords to interrupt the giant city defenders.

As for the method, it is very simple. Directly increase the number of military leaders of the giant city guard army from three positions to ten positions!

Moreover, each term must not be in office for more than a hundred years, and cannot be reinstated. The major forces in the giant city also placed their own members in the giant city guard army, promoted them to high positions, divided the internal forces, and formulated a rule. Series lifting measures.

Therefore, no matter what the representative elected by the Giant City Guards is, at least when he is in office, his stance must be towards the Giant City Guards.

Otherwise, there would be many people staring at his position.

Among the three major families, the person elected this time is the representative of the Chi family. To be able to obtain this representative position, the Chi family has paid a heavy price in private.

The representative of the Chi family said in a deep voice: "They did underestimate the enemy. This time there is the shadow of the Xia Kingdom behind them. How can a city in Jiuchi City fight against a country?"

The representative of the Giant City Guards laughed: "Why haven't I heard about the fate of the Xia Kingdom? There are only a few mercenary groups near Jiuchi City, and how many mercenary groups have made them so miserable?"

"Okay." The city lord sitting in the main seat rubbed his brows. These major forces are really not reassuring at all.

Although sitting in the position of city lord, he is happy to see the contradictions among the major forces below, which makes it easier for him to wander among them to gain more benefits for himself.

But he doesn't want to fight among himself when facing a powerful enemy!

The city lord said: "As usual, let's decide by clapping the table. Those who agree can clap the table. If it's a tie, put it aside and start the next meeting tomorrow."

This kind of situation has happened before. In some major decisions, the major forces in the city cannot reach a consensus, so a tie is formed.

This day is to give the major forces free time to reach an exchange of interests in private.

Originally, the next meeting had to wait for three days, but after an incident, the time was shortened to one day.

There were six representatives on the scene, including the city lord's mansion.

They represented the interests of the city lord's mansion, the elders' council, the giant city guards, the Chamber of Commerce Alliance, the three major families, and the Burning Heaven Temple.

As the city lord's voice fell.

The representatives of the three major families clapped the table first.

Soon, the representatives of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance also clapped the table.

Several people on the scene looked at each other.

The representative of the Burning Heaven Temple, who had been silent, also clapped the table.

Others' eyes flickered, but they were not too surprised, because the current chief priest of the Burning Heaven Temple was from the Chi family.

The high priest is the second most important person in the temple. Now the pope of the temple is not interested in managing things, but is only interested in becoming a god. Many powers are decentralized, so it is not an exaggeration to say that the high priest is the person with the most power.

The game was tied at 3:3.

The city lord's eyes flickered. Last time it was only 4:2, but this time it became 3:3. The influence of the Chi family is not small.

The city lord looked at the representative of the Chi family thoughtfully, thinking of the private transaction between the Chi family and him not long ago.

And most importantly, the loss of the Chi family in Jiuchi City is indeed not small. There are not many masters who transcend the seventh level even in the Burning Sky Giant City.

If the Jiuchi City really collapses, it will not be a good thing for the Burning Sky Giant City.

This will greatly affect the prestige of the Burning Sky Giant City. If it loses its prestige, how can other cities in the Burning Sky Territory continue to be obedient?

Now many cities below are obedient on the surface, but in fact, if the Burning Sky Giant City shows its decline, the most vicious ones to bite back may be these obedient sons.

After a moment of silence, he gently tapped the table.

The pupils of the elders' representative shrank. Is the influence of the Chi family so great? ?

The elders' meeting is a gathering place for the masters of the giant city, including representatives of some small families, so the interests of the elders' meeting are in conflict with the three major families.

The expansion of the Chi family's influence is not a good thing.

The representative of the giant city guard sneered, "It seems that you have already discussed it privately. Calling me here is just a notification."

"Mu Zhi, the overall situation is important." The city lord said in a deep voice, "Jiu Chi City cannot collapse, and this time Jiu Chi City is also willing to pay high military expenses."

Mu Zhi was silent for a moment. He was not born in Fentian Territory. He was able to reach this position today, partly relying on his own talents, and partly because he was a representative recommended by the civilian beastmasters of Fentian Giant City.

His decisions often represent the demands of civilian beastmasters.

Since the other four forces have reached a tacit understanding at the meeting, his is no longer very important.

Jiu Chi City's willingness to pay high military expenses is also a kind of retreat, giving him a reason to report back.

But Mu Zhi still didn't think it was a good decision to support Jiuchi City now.

It would be fine if he could subdue the group of mercenaries, but what if he couldn't?

This thought emerged in Mu Zhi's mind.

If even the Giant City Guards went there and still suffered a big loss, then it would be really troublesome

If Jiuchi City couldn't win, it could be said that the beastmasters of Jiuchi City were useless. If even the Giant City Guards suffered a big loss, how could it be explained to the outside world?

The prestige of Burning Sky Giant City might fall to the lowest point in history.

I hope my guess won't come true.

Mu Zhi thought to himself.

At the same time, Blue Star.

Many forces such as the Eagle Federation and the Polaris United States have also noticed the recent movements of Daxia.

This behemoth frequently mobilized its internal troops, which is very sensitive.

This made the surrounding countries nervous and secretly on alert.

Because no one knew who Daxia's target was.

But soon, intelligence was transmitted to their ears through various channels.

"Daxia is mobilizing troops from all over the country, and the reserve forces have basically received the call for conscription and are in a state of preparation for war."

"They are going to attack the Burning Sky Giant City? Are they really going to do it this time?"

"They are really brave. That is a giant city, and the Burning Sky Giant City is also among the upper middle among the ninety-nine giant cities."

"Should we take the opportunity to attack?"

The major forces held meetings frequently, but in the end, they reached a consensus among the major forces - wait and see.

No matter what, Daxia is still a member of Blue Star.

Now that Daxia has launched a charge to the foreign land, it would be fine if they did not support it. If they still dragged it back secretly at this time, they would lose the righteousness.

If they were forced to go crazy, the consequences would not be something they could bear.

In the mining area, with the efforts of the captured beastmasters, some of the domesticated monsters were finally summoned from the lake.

Chen Xing also saw these "Palu" mining.

This is a popular game from Blue Star recently. Players can control their characters to capture a monster called Palu. In the game, they can give various instructions to the monster, such as cutting down trees, mining, and doing crafts. In the end, no one expected that this game unlocked the nature of many players. Many players suddenly realized that I also have the blood of capitalists flowing in my body. When they were at work, they thought that Palu in the computer was still resting, and they felt sad in their hearts. feeling bad.

The monster in the lake is called the multi-kidney water ghost monkey.

He has slender arms and an honest personality. His only shortcoming is that he is a little timid.

But in addition, according to the captured beast master, these multi-kidney water ghost monkeys are simply born to be holy bodies for mining.

They can live underwater, and because they are omnivorous monsters, they have extremely strong digestive abilities and can survive on some grass roots and leaves.

It has strong reproductive capacity and is cheap, making it a cheap monster.

Moreover, the adult multi-kidney water ghost monkey can have 27 energy levels. Although it is not very high, it can still be used. Moreover, the name of their race comes from their characteristics. They are born with four kidneys. In addition, they are monkey monsters and have stronger endurance than many monsters from other large races.

And the multi-kidney water ghost monkeys have another advantage. They are smarter. Just because they are smarter, they know how to go to the water to catch some small fish, shrimps, and small insects to eat in their spare time at work. They know how to nourish their bodies. Well, they don’t need to worry about the beast master who oversees their work. How can you find such a good labor force like mine slaves who know how to take care of their own bodies.

Therefore, many resource points under the Fire Lake like to use the multi-kidney water ghost monkey.

After hearing this, Chen Xing inexplicably felt that the water ghost monkey with multiple kidneys was very suitable for mining.

Chen Xing asked: "Why don't you use the beasts of high-level beast masters to mine the water?"

Although there are many kidney water ghost monkeys.

But they are low-level monsters after all. Wouldn't it be faster if high-level water-attributed beast masters mine them?

Hearing Chen Xing's question, the captured beast master quickly explained.

"It's because there are dark fire caves at the bottom of the fire lake. These dark fire caves will spit out fire poison every once in a while. After the general beast master absorbs the fire poison, his body will be affected. Even a powerful beast master absorbs fire poison for a long time. Poison will also affect the foundation. Anyway, these monkeys are cheap and you won’t feel bad if you die, so you might as well use these monkeys for mining.”

Chen Xing generally understood after listening.

Then let them continue to let the multi-kidney water ghost monkeys continue to mine underwater mineral veins here.

At the same time, scouts were sent to the nearby area to check for information. There was such a big movement here, and it was impossible for Jiuchi City to be unaware of it.

Once they know it, they will never remain indifferent. No matter what the next step is, they must be prepared in advance.

A few days later, the scouts sent out brought back a piece of news.

Gu Wu hurried over and reported to Chen Xing with a serious face: "I received a message. Burning Sky Giant City publicly announced that it would garrison troops in Jiuchi City and sent 10,000 beast masters here."
