Chapter 148 Final Preparations
“Where did they come from?”
"We all come from Luyang Mansion and are currently studying in the county court."
"How strong?"
"Most of them are in the early stages of the Martial Master, probably about one level. However, they are very outstanding in various departments, no less than those on the Donglai List. They have shown their strength in the Ten-Singling Boat Race. If a child loses his bet, he must abide by the bet and will not participate in this year's rafting meeting."
Princess Li Zhouying asked Li Hao and fell silent.
He has never been happy with Li Hao's gloomy nature, but he still has high hopes for Li Hao, the eldest son. Every year, all the affairs of the rafting meeting are handed over to Li Hao to handle. Since Li Hao made this decision, he will not object.
"Well, let's deal with it like this. This year, 18 people will be deducted from the rafting, plus nine of them, a total of ninety-two martial masters will participate."
Li Zhouying reluctantly agreed.
Then, he looked at the more than 90 top martial masters who were preparing to participate in the rafting meeting on the tower and said seriously: "The rules of this year's rafting meeting are the same as in previous years!
It is getting late now, and only half an hour is left before the full moon in Mid-Autumn Festival. The largest beast tide this year is about to appear. You will rush out of the Donglai River later to fight the beast tide!
You are the strongest group of top martial masters in the county's "Donglai List" and are also the hope for the future of my Donglai County. The millions of people in the entire Donglai County have high hopes for your performance and are waiting for your performance. Be sure to do all means to fight the beast tide.
Anyone who hunts the Sea Beast Venerable will receive a heavy reward from the county government. For each hunting of a Sea Beast Venerable, he will receive a heavy reward of 300 Yuan stones, with no upper limit. If the top three people are hunting, he will receive an additional 1,000 Yuan stones, a second-level high-grade blood and energy pill, and a hundred Yuan Qi pills. The first person hunting will receive an additional second-level top-grade Canglan armor."
Li Zhouying looked at the moonlight in the night sky and waved, "It's still half an hour left, you all go down and prepare!"
"Yes, Princess!"
Ninety-two Wu Zuns bowed to Li Zhouying, left the Dongcheng Gate Tower, headed to the Donglai River below, and each made final preparations.
..
The Donglai River runs through the huge Donglai City and flows from the gate of the Dongcheng Tower to the East Sea.
At this sea outlet of the East City Gate, there is an iron gate weighing hundreds of thousands of pounds, separating the rivers in the city from the endless East Sea.
It is this iron railing gate that blocks the sea beasts in the East China Sea outside Donglai City.
"quack!"
A hundred powerful soldiers from Kong Wu in a squadron, burst out with blue veins, shouting loudly, turning a giant iron turntable, the chains pulled the gate, slowly opening the overweight iron railing gate.
Ninety-two light boats floated in the city and got on the river.
These light boats are very small and light, about one meter long, and can only stand one person. The bottom of the boat is smooth and has excellent buoyancy, so you can easily control the wind and waves.
Half an hour later, the ninety-two martial masters in Donglai City will ride these light boats and rush out of the Donglai River in the city to face the biggest wave of dangerous beasts on the Mid-Autumn Night.
Before that, they only had half an hour to rest and make their final preparations on the shore.
Ye Fan's team of nine people gathered together.
"If you hunt a sea beast master, you can get a reward of 300 yuan stones from the county government, which is much more than what we have worked hard in a year! This is a good opportunity to make a fortune. If we can kill one of us, the expenses next year will probably be enough!"
Sun Zaoli said excitedly.
The others were also very excited. Since breaking through to the Martial Master in the past six months, they have almost no Yuanshi on them, and even if there are no more than ten yuan, it can be said that the bell of poverty is ringing. It can be said that this rafting will be a great opportunity to earn Yuanshi.
"It's not that easy! It's harder to kill a sea beast master in a large tide of beasts. The sea beast master has already gained all the advantages of the sea. Once they lose, they can sink into the deep sea to hide.
We should still take safety first and try to find opportunities behind other martial masters to avoid falling into the siege of sea beasts. If we are greedy for these hundreds of Yuan stones and die in this beast tide, it is not cost-effective."
Gu Hanjian said coldly.
Jiang Youxi nodded immediately and said, "Yes, I have tried before. It is indeed extremely difficult to hunt the Sea Beast Lord on the sea! Tonight is the biggest beast tide, and the Sea Beast Lords are emerging in groups, and it is even more difficult to kill them! With the strength of ours alone, we will never have the chance to kill a Sea Beast Lord on the sea! We must work together to achieve it.
After leaving the sea, the nine of us would be better gathered together and work together to hunt the sea beast master. Everyone gets equally. Whoever contributes more will be given more!"
"good!"
Everyone agreed with this idea. It was almost impossible for their strength to hunt a sea beast Lord alone. Only when the nine people work together can they have a little hope.
Mu Bing looked at Ye Fan: "Ye Fan! What do you think? Are you also hunting the Sea Beast Lord with us?"
Ye Fan was a little different from the other eight of them. He could hunt the Sea Beast Lord alone. So she specifically asked Ye Fan for his opinion.
"OK!"
Ye Fan smiled faintly.
Even if he went out to sea to hunt the Sea Beast Lord alone, he could earn enough Yuan stones. He earned thousands of Yuan stones in the past six months alone. Therefore, he didn't care too much about the "heavy reward" of the county government.
Tonight's rafting meeting, facing this wave of beasts, he wanted to try the power of his latest mysterious machine gun.
If this machine cannon is powerful, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, he can go out to sea and use this mysterious weapon to hunt the sea beast master for quick practice.
If the effect is not good, he still has to improve the mysterious weapon to satisfy himself as much as possible.
For Ye Fan, whether to make money or not is a secondary matter for Ye Fan.
Moreover, Ye Fan considered that although he was not short of Yuanshi, Gu Hanjian's senior brothers, Mu Bing, Jiang Youxi, Qin Yuer and others were short of Yuanshi.
Tonight, I only need to make a little effort to make them earn hundreds of yuan stones. They can use this yuan stone to purchase Yuanqi combat skills and mysterious weapons, which will be of great help to their future cultivation and combat power improvement.
..
Other genius martial arts masters on the "Donglai List" gathered together in groups of three or five, discussing the matter of fighting the sea beast tide in half an hour.
Occasionally, some people looked at Ye Fan and the other nine people, and they were talking in a low voice, with suspicion and repulsion in their eyes.
However, for most of the martial lords, the appearance of Ye Fan and the nine people was just to make up the numbers, and it had nothing to do with them.
Those who can make a big splash at the rafting meeting are still those who rank very high on the "Donglai List".
Among the crowd, a small group of genius martial masters gathered together.
The leader among them was a young martial master with a sword-like eyebrows. He was brave and invisible, with an invisible aura, and was faintly superior to the genius martial masters.
"Brother Pan Yun! You will definitely be the leader in the rafting meeting tonight!"
"That's natural. Brother Pan is at the peak of the ninth level of Wu Zun Realm, with strong combat power, ranking second in the "Donglai List". If Li Hao hadn't relied on having a good father, he would have been the turn to be the top of the list!"
"Hmph, Li Hao's dead face looks annoying and suppresses other martial masters everywhere. It's really strange that he doesn't participate in the rafting meeting this year!"
"It must be Princess Jiaojiao who took his handle! Since the princess came to Donglai County, it is difficult for two tigers to accommodate this mountain. It is common for Li Hao to be unlucky. But strangely, the princess actually failed to participate in the rafting meeting and lost to another unknown team on a bet!"
The seven or eight martial masters around him said strangely while complimenting.
As the young princess of Donglai County, Li Hao is also the leader of the "Donglai List". He often uses boating to suppress those genius martial masters who are dissatisfied with him.
There are many genius martial masters who do not accept him in private.
Some of them gathered around Pan Yun, who was second in the Donglai List. Pan Yun was born in a large family in Donglai County. He was dignified and heroic. He did not have the yin energy of Li Hao. He was also much generous and could convince people.
"I can do it tonight without Li Hao. I can do my best to win the first place in the hunting this year, which is also an ordinary thing. What I am worried about is that some of Li Hao's bad legs will secretly ruin my good things. Li Hao has always been using any means!"
Pan Yun said lightly, sweeping over other martial masters not far away, and a little sharp light flashed in his eyes.
"Brother Pan, don't worry, after going to sea, brothers will keep an eye on them!"
The others said immediately.
In the distance, under the darkness beside a huge willow tree, a black-faced martial master from "Donglai List" and a manager came together as if nothing had happened.
"The young princess said that he would let Ye Fan and the nine others go without returning!"
The manager whispered.
"The adults in Donglai City are all staring at the city tower, with the bright moon in the sky, and they can see it within ten miles. On the sea, Pan Yun and the group of people also have sharp eyes, so they can easily see me tamper with me. It is too difficult to do if I want to do nothing! I will not be able to do my life as a young princess."
The black-faced martial master said indifferently.
The manager sneered. It seemed that this person didn't see the rabbit and didn't show off the eagle. He didn't see the advantage, but refused to take action.
"Tonight's rafting meeting, you group of martial masters will face the waves and attack the beast tide, and the field will be extremely chaotic. The adults will definitely not be able to notice some minor details when they are watching from a distance from the city tower.
The young princess Pan Yun and the others had already calculated that they had arranged a lot of us to distract them.
You are not close to the young princess on weekdays, so they will not deliberately pay attention to you.
With your Chu Hailiang in the 35th place in the "Donglai List", the seventh level of the Martial Master Realm, proficient in adventure systems, and good at assassination. It is easy to kill a few Martial Masters in the early stage with a little means. Especially the boy Ye Fan, he must kill him, and Fang extricate the anger in the young princess. The young princess said that after the matter is done, I promise you to advance to the top 20 in the "Donglai List" next year, with three thousand Yuanshi!"
"oh!"
The black-faced martial master brow moved and his heart quickly weighed.
Three thousand yuan stones are enough to make him tempted, and the top 20 in the "Donglai List" is even more attractive. He has not been promoted to one for many years. If he advances to the top 20, his reputation and influence will be several times greater, which is undoubtedly of great benefit to him practicing in Donglai City.
Chu Hailiang said coldly: "It's not okay to kill only one person! The adults on the city tower, Princess Li, President Cao and others are all at the peak of Wuhou Realm, with their eyes as if they were torched, and they would not be able to withstand sand. If I assassinate several people, they would definitely find something was wrong. They openly killed people at the rafting meeting. If they were discovered, my death date would come, and the young princess would not be able to protect me."
The manager thought about the difficulty of this matter, so he made a step back, "Well, that's all! Ye Fan must kill him! Disguised as being killed by the Sea Beast Lord! By the way, don't let his body fall into the mouth of the Sea Beast Lord. Even if he dies, you must rob it back! He has a beast ring on his body, which is very important. Many senior officials are staring at it. Do not lose it. Don't make the idea of this beast ring on your own. After bringing his body back, you can hand it over to the princess!"
"I know Ye Fan's origin. Isn't he just a beast ring containing a mammoth in his hand? This thing is not ordinary hot. Even if I give it to me, I don't dare to touch it! Besides, I'm not a beast master!"
Chu Hailiang said coldly, "But you have to add another 3,000 yuan to leave Ye Fan's body! Pay now. The second clearance will be successful! If he is not killed, only half of it will be refunded!"
"You~...! Okay, here are six thousand Yuan stones! The young princess's Yuan stone is not easy to get, I hope you can do your best! The young princess will watch with her own eyes on the city tower, how do you kill Ye Fan!"
The manager was immediately furious by Chu Hailiang's lion's mouth, but he still held back his breath. He took out a small bag from his waist and threw it to Chu Hailiang.
Chapter completed!
