Chapter 528
According to the Great Sage, those ancient nobles who had been passed down for countless years had many branches of the world in their hands.
Some of them were completely idle in the treasure vault. contemporary romance
If they could take out high-value bait and have the strength to protect them, they would have the opportunity to exchange with these ancient nobles and obtain the branches of the World Tree.
The Great Sage believed that Tang Yu and the others, who had encountered countless opportunities and established Tree Shade Entertainment City, must have some good things on hand.
Although he did not have a long body, the knowledge in his mind still had a high value and could be used to trade with ancient nobles.
As for the rule of the royal family and Great Sage, he could not pass some core knowledge to outsiders. The Great Sage could not care about it.
The world was about to be destroyed. Even if the ancestor had a spirit, he would not blame him.
However,
Tang Yu decisively rejected the Great Sage’s suggestion.
Not stingy,
With the virtue of those nobles, even if the Great Sage’s suggestion was feasible, how many World Tree branches could they get just by trading?
How much time would it take?
This thing was not for shopping online.
At the very least, both sides had to test each other, using items of considerable value to constantly pull the wool over their eyes, and there was also the possibility of cheating – for the great nobles, the rule of not being able to use force in the capital was the same as no.
To let Tang Yu describe it, it was two words, troublesome.
“It’s obviously simple. Why do you have to make a complicated plan?”
…
Reckless is reckless, but Tang Yu will not underestimate those ancient nobles.
He had already seen a formation with the World Tree’s branch as the core to greatly increase his strength.
Yu Gecheng had only collected two to three hundred years of ‘popularity’.
The ancient nobles of the capital had even more vast territories. They had accumulated for hundreds of years, thousands of years, and their formations were also more advanced. In addition to the ‘popularity’ formation, he believed that there were all kinds of formations that could restrict the enemy – almost all of the technology trees on the continent of Aino were on the formation.
To be on the safe side, he made another trip to Earl Frostwhite’s residence and had the count try to open the formation. Compared to the’ popularity ‘, it gave the veteran Transcendents a boost.
He gradually had a rough idea in his heart.
“There are still some things that need to be prepared.”
He estimated,
Unless we can crush them directly, the battle between Transcendents is very easy to detect.
The secret of the royal family is already known, but at this stage, we should still avoid the vigilance of the mastermind behind the scenes. This is also the reason why the Great Sage suggested to act from the side.
Tang Yu did not trust the Great Sage, this seemingly harmless old man, unconditionally.
He found an excuse to let the Great Sage take a stroll around Tree Shade Entertainment City.
With the help of the territory’s ability to distinguish between friend and foe, he soon saw that the green light above the Great Sage’s head was especially dazzling… This made him feel relieved.
…
Two days later,
On the surface, the capital looked calm, but in the dark, there were some undercurrents flowing.
In less than ten days, it would be the sacrificial ceremony. Whether it was the inner city or the people in the outer city, they all began to get busy.
“Thank you for your generosity, Lord Aristocrat.”
“The sacrificial ceremony, just a few more times will be enough.”
“Yes, as long as we participate in the sacrificial ceremony, everyone can get a lot of food, and the days will be much easier.”
On the streets, civilians came and went in a hurry.
Even the freelance mercenaries wearing leather armor and chainmail were busy with the ceremony – the Mercenary Union had corresponding tasks, and the rewards were all provided by the rich royal family.
Tang Yu wore a black cloak and strolled on the streets.
He opened his personal domain and narrowed his eyes. Vaguely, he could see that the commoners who were walking through the streets had an invisible aura that slowly floated into the sky.
This was not a power that truly existed, but it could be used as nutrients for the World Tree.
And now, the royal family’s sacrificial ceremony was not to collect money from the commoners. Instead, it was to distribute food, causing many people who lived in poverty to be grateful.
Originally, it was soil that nourished the World Tree. On the other hand, it could be used to devour World Tree.
After a few glances, Tang Yu continued to walk forward.
This was the inner city. After turning a few streets, one could see the buildings in front of them, the tall walls of the courtyard, and the magnificent gate of the mansion.
This was a Marquis Mansion.
The area was at least ten thousand square meters.
At a glance, one could not see the end of it.
“Marquis Bolton’s residence. His strength is among the Marquis of the capital. His strength is below average.”
Tang Yu held the report of the Marquis’ residence and scanned the area. “There are five famous Transcendents in the Marquis’ residence. Among them, Marquis Bolton has just become a veteran Transcendent. His strength is similar to that of Count Frosty. However, it is said that there is also a veteran Transcendent who has lived for seven to eight hundred years. His strength is extraordinary.”
“The five Transcendents spend most of their time in closed-door cultivation in the residence. In other words, if you disturb the people in the Marquis’ residence, you will likely face the five Transcendents who have added BUFF.”
He looked at the two figures who were also wearing black cloaks.
One of them wore a skeleton mask while the other wore large sunglasses and a cigarette in his mouth.
The two of them were Hui Ren and Shea (Shea).
As a lord, Tang Yu did not have the intention to do it himself. It was just his first time robbing and he was not very familiar with it. To be careful, he came to the Marquis Mansion to have a look.
After he finished speaking, Hui Ren and Shea pulled their hoods back and disappeared in a flash.
…
In Duke Bolton’s mansion.
There were many guards wearing excellent rune armor, long sabers and small round shields, patrolling back and forth in the mansion.
Five people in a small team, fifty people in a squadron.
The squadron was usually responsible for patrolling a region. Among them, the captain of the squadron had the strength of a high-level awakened.
This was the foundation of a great noble.
The residence of a small noble had freelance mercenaries sneaking in from time to time. However, a great noble like Marquis Bolton, a mere freelance mercenary, did not have the ability to sneak in. As long as one stepped into the residence of a Marquis, they would be discovered by the patrolling guards in minutes. It would be easy to be killed directly.
However, today,
Two figures were walking with swagger. A team of guards passed by them, but they did not notice anything.
“This move of yours is not bad. You can even create shadows under the sun.”
Shea sighed and looked down. At this time, there was a black shadow under the feet of the two people. Not only did it completely hide their figures and auras, but even their voices would not be transmitted.
It was indeed a stealth skill.
Shea was not envious. She only advocated the art of explosion.
“In front should be Marquis Bolton’s treasure house. I don’t know if there are World Tree branches in it.”
“Go in and take a look.” Hui Ren said lightly.
As they approached the treasure vault, there were even more patrolling guards. They were all on guard every three steps. They were different from the guards who were talking and laughing outside. The guards around the treasure vault had solemn expressions on their faces. At the very least, they had the aura of the peak of the ninth layer.
However, it was useless.
Even if they were at the great circle of the awakened realm, they would not be able to detect Hui Ren Shea who walked past them.
The two of them walked to the front of the treasury.
A door made of extraordinary metal was tightly closed.
There were faint runes flashing.
Hui Ren raised his head. “It’s a bit troublesome. Although I have some skills that can pierce through walls, I can’t penetrate this door. The walls around me are the same. There are high-level runes engraved on them.”
“Then…” Shea thought for half a second and said, “Let’s break it by force. It doesn’t matter if it is exposed anyway. Do you want to complete the task directly by sneaking in?”
Hui Ren nodded slightly and directly removed the shadow stealth covering the two people.
Feeling the aura of a living person,
The guard who was close suddenly turned his head, opened his mouth, and was about to shout.
Suddenly,
The shadow behind the guard seemed to come alive, and suddenly stretched out, like a black snake wrapped around the guard’s neck and twisted.
Ka,
Ka,
Regardless of whether it was near or far away, the two hundred elite Awakened ones guarding the treasure vault all stopped in their tracks. In the next moment, they fell to the ground in the same motion.
Hui Ren shrugged. “Who the hell says we can sneak in, we can’t forcefully break it apart.”
He directly picked up a set of anti-alarm devices developed by Tree Shade and stuck it on the four corners of the treasure vault’s metal gate. The anti-alarm device began to operate, and faint rays of light shot out, forming a rectangular frame. Within the square frame, even if the door was damaged, it would not trigger the internal alarm device.
Then,
Hui Ren pulled out his dagger, and a faint Origin Energy halo spread out. He waved his hand.
The alloy door made of high-grade metal opened up a huge gap, enough to accommodate two people.
Ten minutes later,
The treasury had been ransacked, and the spatial ring could not hold it. Hui Ren and Shea used a Return Scroll to send it back to the secret base in the outskirts of the capital.
“Unfortunately, there are no World Tree branches. Let’s go, quickly go to the next treasury.”
The Marquis Mansion was very large, and the treasures accumulated over countless years were even more difficult to count.
There were more than one treasury in the mansion.
Hui Ren and Shea had obtained information from their prior investigation as well as the information they had obtained from sneaking into the residence.
Second place,
Third place,
Even though they had yet to find the World Tree branch, they had still gained quite a bit. Even if they didn’t include equipment, just the precious minerals and medicinal herbs alone were worth over ten million Origin Crystals. There were quite a few that didn’t exist on Earth!
Tang Yu was so shocked that he didn’t stay outside the Marquis Mansion. He went straight back to the base and checked the harvest.
At this moment,
Hui Ren and Shea also came to the fourth treasure house of the Marquis Mansion.
This treasure house was located deep underground, and the security was even tighter.
The two of them gradually approached the treasure vault. Suddenly, runes lit up around the passageway. Hui Ren was forced out before he could remove the “Shadow Stealth”.
Noises also came from outside.
The corpses of the guards who had been infiltrated by Hui Ren Wushuang had finally been discovered and alarmed the entire Marquis Mansion.
The alarm went off.
In the distance, one, two, three… Transcendent auras rose and rapidly approached.
The two of them were completely exposed.
Hui Ren, who had been planning to sneak in, rubbed his nose and looked at Shea. “You won. It seems that you can only solve it through violence.”
Shea ignored the guards guarding the underground treasury. She was too lazy to attack these people. Her gun transformed into a hand-cannon and directly blasted out a large hole.
The two of them rose into the air.
Several Transcendents flew over from afar and locked onto them with their auras.
Shea took a breath. “It’s good to be like this in the morning, just to try out the explosive art I recently created with these people.”
