Edge of the Apocalypse -
Chapter 1261: Rules Of The Game
"It's just that the corpse of that expert named Azes has already turned into a charred shell under His Highness' flames. What a pity. Otherwise, with his strength, if he used it as a medium, he would be able to transform into a decent king." The inorganic crystal eyes of Mitinasna flickered with a sense of shame.
'"Don't worry, there will be more media in the future," Alan laughed. "And I think there will be some good materials for you soon. Of course, they probably don't have the strength of Azes. They should be on par with the woman from before."
Mitinus knew that he was referring to Trisley, so he compared Trisley and Azeroth in his heart. The Abyssal Flame nodded and said, "Yes, it's a bit lacking, but it's more than enough."
Alan patted him on the shoulder and walked towards the prisoners. Mitinus looked at his shoulder and thought about the meaning of Ellen's action just now. The material world was still too unfamiliar to him. Novelty would appear at any time. Just like Ellen's patting on the shoulder just now, if it was just a meaningless series of actions from a biological point of view, it gave Mitinus a feeling of trust.
The world is wonderful, he thought to himself.
The Fire Horned Demons retreated to either side to allow Alan to pass through. He walked over to the group of prisoners in front of him and said loudly, "Someone who can tell the truth, come out."
Blood-eyed soldiers, look at me, look at you. A moment later, a Bar male stood up. He was very similar to a human male, except for a thick tail. However, this person's skin was covered in rock fragments of different shapes. It was unknown whether it was born like this or if it was embedded in it in some way. He walked out and half knelt down in front of Alan. "Our captain is dead. I am the commando captain, my lord."
"Very good, tell me your name."
The man raised his head and said, "I don't have a name. They call me Yan Shan."
"Rock Mountain." Ellen glanced at him and said, "That's true. Well, Rock Mountain. You should know that Blood Eye is dead. There will be no one like Azes in the Wilderness. I will take over his Blood Eye Town sooner or later. And now …"
He stretched out a finger and wiped the Blood Eye Insignia on Yan Shan's armor's chest. The mark on the Blood Eye completely disappeared and was replaced by an open black flame. Alan looked at the ball of flames and said, "Remember, there are no more bloody eyes here, only me … Dark King!"
The Rock King was stunned for a moment, then he turned around and raised his arm to shout at the soldiers, "Do you hear me? From now on, we are Lord Dark King's soldiers!"
The soldiers quickly reacted. Everyone raised their hands and shouted the name "Dark King". Alan raised his arm to calm them down. Trisley had said that all the big shots in the wastelands had a loud nickname. Although it was common, there was no denying that it had some effect in shaking their subordinates and spreading their fame. So she suggested that Allen give her a name as well.
Alan was too lazy to think about it, so he decided to use "Dark King" as his name in the wilderness. This name would spread through the Blood Eye soldiers.
After calming the soldiers down, Alan looked into the distance and said, "I know that there is more to this fringe of the Land of the Lost than Green Light Town. There is also a place like Bai Xicheng. Now I need you to do something for me …"
Yan Shan shouted, "We are willing to do anything for Lord Dark King."
His face was filled with excitement, as if he was a loyal warrior. Of course, Alan knew that this was not the case. As long as he knew that people of the Barre race had heard of this saying, they should not speak of loyalty to the Barre race. Even if there was, it was still limited.
He didn't mind that these soldiers didn't offer absolute loyalty, as long as it was limited. As long as you have enough strength, the Barbarians will be able to maintain their limited loyalty for a long time.
Like the two supreme beings on Agares.
"I'm glad you said that, Yan Shan." Allen said indifferently, in a condescending tone, "Then pick some good-natured fellows, each with a squad of soldiers, and go to those places in Bai Xicheng for me." I want you to inform these towns that a new structure has arrived and that the benefits of the green glazed crystal need to be redistributed. "I want them to come to Green Crystal Town to see me. If they refuse, then Azeroth's fate will be their future."
Yan Shan was stunned this time.
He knew that Alan, the new boss, was a man of strength and ambition. Unexpectedly, he had just finished off Azes and was about to redistribute the veins of the green glazed crystal. This appetite was too great. After all, there were a few other big shots in the wastelands besides Azes, and none of them were easy to provoke.
Yan Shan smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, the owners of those places are not easy to talk to. I'm afraid that if we go, we won't be able to return."
"Unless they want to start a war, they won't dare to do anything to you." Allen shook his head and said, "The experts in charge of those towns are only the subordinates of a few other big shots. If they think they are stronger than Azes, let them try."
He whispered, "If they dare to do so, then I'll have an excuse to go to war."
Only Yan Shan heard these words, causing the Baltic man's head to be covered in sweat. With these words, he figured out Alan's intentions, just as they only maintained a limited loyalty to Alan, Alan did not care about their lives. Unless they showed their worth, they would win Allen's defence.
This was precisely the Iron Laws that were practised in the Great Wasteland. The weak and the worthless are like weeds that can be uprooted at any time.
Alan left the mine after letting Rock pick his own candidate. Today, Green Crystal Town was officially under Allen's control. Residents of the town could see the long-legged biological turrets climbing up the town walls themselves or occupying a commanding height. Then, he squatted on his legs and placed himself there. After they were set up, the turrets entered a dormant state. When they closed their eyes, other than their strange appearances, they were no different from the real turrets.
The Fire Horned Demons were scattered on the snowy plains outside the town. They mixed into the local mutated beasts. As long as they didn't appear together, it would be difficult for outsiders to associate them with Allen's army. Instead, they would treat them as ordinary mutated beasts. These Fire Horned Demons acted as sentinels under Mitinas' orders. Hundreds of sentinels covered an area of nearly a kilometer square outside the town. Under the suppression of the chaotic force field in the Lost Realm, Mitinus could sense their extreme distance.
After leaving the mine, Alan returned to Lim's hotel. The hotel had become his landing place in Green Light Town, and even though Alan was already the owner of the town, Lim still didn't forget to charge him for the rent. In the eyes of outsiders, this was simply impatience, but what was even more confusing was that not only did Allen not get angry, he even handed over enough green crystals.
After the battle, Laura and the others were all injured to varying degrees, and now they were resting in their rooms. Alan didn't see them and went back to his room. Just as she entered, Tracy floated in like a breeze and closed the door for Alan. Alan frowned, and Tracy, as if she hadn't seen his expression, sat down on a chair and said, "Dear master, what are you going to do with the Blood Eye soldiers?"
Ellen said her plan casually, and Trisley shrugged. "Do you think the towns in Bai Xicheng will respond?"
"What do you think?" Alan asked.
Tracy shook her head and said, "If it was me, I would definitely not respond, but I would not make things difficult for those soldiers. I would inform my boss that even if we were to distribute the green glazed crystal veins, it would not be up to people like us to decide."
'"That's right. I don't expect them to respond. I just want to borrow the soldiers to send them a message that it would be best for the big shots behind them to have a sense of crisis. Then it would be much better for me to negotiate."
"Negotiate?" "You mean to attack a town?" Trisley thought.
"You are indeed a smart woman." Alan nodded and said, "That's right, just killing one Azaz isn't enough. I need an opponent's flag if they want to know my weight. And you know, the more people die, the more leeway there will be to distribute the benefits."
Tracy licked her lips and said, "Master, you are indeed much more ambitious than the old man with the Blood Eye. An ambitious man is always so charming. I can't help but wonder which unlucky bastard you're after."
Alan laughed, "White Devil Luci."
"It's him?" Tracy sat up straight and said, "Are you really going to pick him? Think about it, master. First, Luci is stronger than Azes. Second, he has a complicated relationship with Demonic Shadow Empire. Why not pick Cathy or Rabbi? They're much better than Luci."
Alan looked out of the window and said, "Luci's forces are only below the Bone King in the Great Wasteland. In other words, they are the number two figures in the Great Wasteland." I picked him first to avoid direct enmity with the Bone King of the greatest power, and secondly, to eliminate the second strongest person in the Great Wasteland. That would be much more important than killing Azes. At that time, Kathy and Rabik had only two choices. "
"One is to join hands with me to deal with Bone King Zha Suo, and the other is to be swallowed by the Zha Suo." Alan said in a deep voice, "Once Azes and Luci go, the balance of power in the Wilderness will definitely be upset. Anyone with a good eye can see that the next pattern of power is the battle between me and the Bone King, and there is no room for Caesar and the others to survive. They have to choose between the two …"
"As for the relationship between Luci and Demonic Shadow Empire, I don't think Demonic Shadow Empire would mind changing to a stronger ally, right?" Alan turned around and smiled.
He had been in Agares for a while, and by this time, he had basically mastered the rules of the game in the wasteland.
"I see what you mean. Then, when are we going to gather our troops to fight Bai Xicheng?"
"There's no need to be so troublesome. I can go to Bai Xicheng with you tomorrow. In the end, the only one who really decides on a city and a town is the expert in charge. Army, do you think that thing can stop us?" Alan shook his head.
Tracy's eyes lit up. "Did you say'we 'just now? Just the two of us?"
"Yes, Hubble and the others were all injured. I hope they can play at their best in the final battle against the White Devil, and after so many battles, especially against Azes today. They're almost ready to make a breakthrough. Whether it's stabilizing their strength after a breakthrough or digesting the experience gained from these battles, they need time, so I plan to keep them here. Allen raised his eyebrows and said, "What, do you think the two of us can't take down Bai Xicheng?"
"No, Luci arranged a pickup truck in Bai Xicheng. If you give me the right opportunity, I can kill him. Besides, I'm just happy that you're here, Master." Trisley's eyes curved with laughter.
Alan shook his head, "Well, I'm tired. I need to rest. You can go out first."
"Let me accompany you, master." Trisley stood up, took a step forward, and froze in place.
In front of her eyes, a small gray-white flame gently fluttered.
Trisley sighed and spread out her hands, "Then I'll take my leave."
She left the room, closed the door for Alan, and laughed, "I don't believe I won't be able to eat you when I get back from Bai Xicheng, hmph!"
The next day, Ellen, Laura, and the others told them about their trip to Bai Xicheng and went to the mine to ask Mitinas to try to hoard troops while he was back. After doing all of this, Alan put on the hood that Nick had sent him and left Green Crystal City with Trisley. Mitinus sensed Alan's departure from the mine and whispered in a voice he could only hear, "It's a good plan to increase the mine veins and speed up the army's output. But Your Highness, you probably know that. If you want to, there's no need to be so troublesome. You can just gather an army yourself."
"After all … the medium of transformation can be seen everywhere."
If Green Light Town was the starting point, then heading southwest, the direction of the snow plains was narrow and wide. In order to make it easier for them to recognize each other, Green Fire signposts were set up at regular intervals between the towns controlled by Azes and the others to identify their positions. Through the guidance of the flames on the stone pillars, the travelers traveling between the towns wouldn't lose their way. These landmarks can be seen as another road, and along this road southwest, after three or four days of journey, you can see Bai Xicheng.
Bai Xicheng is also on the fringes of the Land of the Lost, but on a much larger scale than Green Light Town. Both the city walls and buildings used a grayish-white tone. In addition to Luci's preference for this hue, Bai Xicheng's pickup trucks are also keen on the color. There is a big difference from the dark red architectural styles of Green Light Town, where most buildings are dome-shaped. From afar, it looked like round gray stone bags were sitting on the snowy plains.
There was another feature of the city, and there were so many stone sculptures in White Tin that they could be seen on the exterior walls of almost any building. These stone sculptures had exotic beasts and characters, but most of them were based on characters. It could be seen that the sculptors were fond of certain aspects of the sculpture. Everyone who had lived in Bai Xicheng for a long time knew that these stone sculptures were all made by pickup trucks. The expert that Luci had entrusted with serious injuries was not only exceptional in strength, but his carving skills were also quite good.
At the very least, there were few artistic talents in the Baltic's chaotic genes.
Apart from occasional appearances in the city, the pickup truck usually stayed in his house, which was different from the metal buildings in Bai Xicheng. The stone building also came from the hands of a pickup truck, as if it was carved from a complete stone. Therefore, the house of the pickup truck itself was a work of art. Of course, only his strength was enough to carve a house out of the hardest white steel rock in the Lost Realm.
Today, as usual, the pickup truck stayed in his stone house. In his hall-sized studio, he was knocking on an original stone. If this expert who was in charge of Bai Xicheng looked at it from the outside, he would definitely not be able to associate his identity with that of an expert. The pickup truck was thin and thin. He often wore loose clothes, unlike other experts who loved to wear armor. He often used carving tools, not sabers, guns, battles and axes.
He was more like a carving-loving stonemason than a city lord.
Just like now, he was using a setback knife to carefully grind off some of the stone clothes on the original stone. With a small saber in his hand, the parts that he thought were unnecessary would disappear, and the surface of the stone would be as smooth as a mirror. Perhaps it was only at this moment that he would display the strength and skill that an expert should possess. In his works, sharp-eyed people can naturally see the beauty of power. Of course, there weren't many people in the city who had such a gaze.
He hates to be disturbed the most while working on a pickup truck. But today, it was clear that someone had forgotten his preference, so when he slashed again, the door of the studio knocked. Pickup narrowed his eyes and threw away his saber. "What's the matter? It's best if there's something important. Otherwise, you guys wait for me to carve it!"
The door opened and a soldier said carefully, "My lord, the people of Green Light Town want to see you."
Pickup's expression stiffened. After muttering "Green Light Town" a few times, he said, "Tell him to wait for me in the lobby."
The battle in Green Light Town a few days ago, especially the collision between Blood Eye and Allen's boundless aura, was felt by the pickup truck in Bai Xicheng. Especially the news of Azes' Qi in the end, which shocked the city lord of Bai Xicheng even more. A few days later, people from Green Light Town came looking for him. Obviously, this was not an ordinary situation.
Pickup could vaguely feel that the Land of the Lost and even the entire wilderness would undergo tremendous changes. With mixed feelings, he changed his clothes and came to the hall to see the Baltic who called himself Rock Mountain. When he saw the emblem on Yan Shan's armor, his pupils shrank.
