Chapter 918: Undead Pharaoh
After seeing the person opposite, he took the wine glass and tasted it and praised the good wine. The fat boss seemed to laugh happily. He waved his hand and said, "It's okay, these guys are like this. As long as your companions don't suffer any losses."
The two of them smiled and said a few words. When they learned that Li Ran and the others were going to Chika Mises, the boss showed such an expression. During the chat, Li Ran learned the reason why the mercenaries did not dare to take action here. It turned out that the person in front of him was the lord here. The reason why he appeared here was the largest tavern here was his private property.
Just as they talked about the customs and specialty arms here, Tang Zi and others also returned here, but at this time, there were no more people from the Blood Scorpion Mercenary Group behind them.
Seeing the vague figure of Mensa Centaur Warrior outside, Li Ran nodded to Tang Zi, and then Huanbing Nannan and Qian Hui also asked for some wine and gave it out.
Originally, seeing them so quickly and returning, the lord was slightly shocked. Although he knew that the members of the Blood Scorpion Mercenary Group were average, there should be one or two hundred people here, and there were quite a few good warriors among them. Even if he himself did not dispatch the main corps, he would not be able to resolve the battle in such a short time.
At this time, seeing Li Ran and others who seemed to not take this matter seriously, the lord looked at Li Ran and others with admiration. He was a little dissatisfied with them when they went to Chika Mis Mountain, but he couldn't help but have a little expectation.
Seeing that Li Ran was talking to the tavern owner, Tang Zi and others who came back did not come over. They just found a table next to them and started eating, but their eyes glanced at the place from time to time.
"Okay! Then let's just say that. I'll talk about it when you come back. I dare not say anything else. There are many specialties here." After chatting for half an hour, the boss got up and said.
Li Ran nodded and said, "That's certain. As long as we can come back, we will have a good talk at that time, especially those seed matters, you must take them to my heart."
After seeing the boss leaving, Tang Zi and others also came over. After learning that this person was the lord here, he was also a little surprised. When asked about what they were talking about, Li Ran smiled and said, "This lord is a businessman. He wants to do some business with us. I also want to buy some seeds of cactus trees from him."
"Can this thing be planted in us?" Xia Houben said with some concern: "And the growth cycle of this thing is too slow. Those who can be guarded have been more than a hundred years."
Li Ran smiled and said, "He said yes, and the seeds I want to buy are not ordinary seeds. In fact, they are the military talismans of these adult cactus trees, but they are just different names here."
At this time, Qian Hui couldn't help but lit up and said, "That's not bad. Although it's not as good as the ancient war trees of the legendary level, these cactus trees are also considered powerful weapons for city defense. Their lethality during defense is not as good as ordinary legendary troops."
Li Ranen said, "I think so too. Although these cactus trees cannot move after planting them, I also asked the lord that if conditions permit, they can be transplanted for a distance. Moreover, the price he said is not high, so I want to buy some and go back and take a look."
At this moment, everyone nodded repeatedly about Li Ran's idea. In such a dangerous place in the desert, people with these cactus trees could build a territory and imagine the perverted defense capabilities of these things. If they could really bring some back for defense, it would definitely be beneficial to the stability of the city.
Two days later, after resting in the city and filling in sufficient supplies, Li Ran and his party set out again on the most dangerous journey to the Sunset Mountains.
The first thing welcoming them was the most chaotic flowing golden sand dunes. It was said that it was chaotic because it was rich in precious sand gold. Many large mercenary groups and adventure groups, including the previous lord himself and some local big merchants, would build mining areas here.
Once there are too many people, trouble will naturally come, especially in such a chaotic place in the desert, the boundary between the mercenary group and the adventure group is difficult to distinguish from the group of sand bandits. Therefore, in a region, battles may occur at every moment, and the situation is very chaotic.
For Li Ran and the others, although they didn't care much about these dangers, the battle in the desert was no better than in the city, so Li Ran and others didn't want to cause trouble. They specifically instructed Zheng Yanbo to try their best to find a relatively remote road. However, despite this, seeing that they were carrying so many supplies and only a few dozen people, some of them did not know whether they were mercenary groups or adventure groups, Yang or real sand bandits, but they still launched several attacks on them.
Although these guys who did not want to attack them, even if the team with the largest number of people was only more than 300, the average level was only at the middle and high levels. In theory, there should be enough with more than a dozen legendary Mensa Centa Skywalkers, plus those elf warriors and sand lizard knights, the desert terrain limited their actions. In addition, these sand bandits were not sure whether they were real sand bandits, and they were very quick to move. In order not to have major casualties, Qian Hui summoned dozens of terrifying legendary fire phoenixes again.
For the people of the sand tribe, it would be fine if they unfortunately encountered higher troops when robbery. Even if the legendary centaur warriors were terrifying, they could still use their terrain advantages to rush up and fight. However, they had no way to deal with these legendary fire phoenixes with fire-type violent elements as their bodies. Therefore, after several battles, Li Ran's personnel on the side gained some expensive sand gold from these horse bandits without much casualties.
At this time, the two brothers Zheng Yanbo, as well as the sand people slaves and orcs, respected Li Ran and others more. If the former saw those legendary centaur warriors, they had already guessed that Li Ran and the others had a very simple origin, and the sand people and orcs saw these fire phoenixes after the legendary centaur army, but they were even more in awe of Li Ran and the others. While the legendary fire phoenixes shocked these sand people with their unique aura, they also gave these sand people a little confidence in this trip to Chika Mis.
After breaking through this golden hill, the surrounding people gradually became scarce. Sometimes, for many days, there was no team of adventurers, and they officially entered the dangerous area.
Fortunately, with these powerful troops, even if they were surrounded by thousands of sand wolves, they walked down step by step. Until they were camping on this day, Li Ran and Tang Zi, who were off the line, were called back by Huan Bing Nannan who was chasing out because their camp was attacked by a group of strange creatures.
Li Ran and the others hurriedly went online, and at first glance they saw a group of mummy-like creatures in the distance, while Xia Houben and others were just defending with the three main tents as the center.
Although in addition to having stronger defense capabilities, most of these mummies are not high in level and are slow in shape, there are a few strange mummy warriors who move extremely quickly. Their level has reached the top level, and sometimes they can even jump up several meters from the soft sand, causing great trouble to the defense here.
At the same time, among these mummies, in addition to a small number of mummy mages who can cast poisonous mist, there are also a large group of sand scorpions interspersed among them, which also posed a great threat to the people on Li Ran’s side.
"Master, it's not good! We may have accidentally entered the territory of the undead pharaoh." Seeing Li Ran walk out of the tent, the camel hands who were guarding camel horses and supplies in the center said quickly.
For them, they were born with an instinctive fear of the undead in the desert. If they hadn't seen their masters so powerful before, they would have run away in despair.
At this time, seeing mummy warriors coming from afar, even shield-held elite soldiers appeared. Li Ran thought about it and summoned more than a dozen fire phoenixes and dozens of Mensa Centaur Skywalkers to support it.
However, even though the number of legendary troops had reached more than forty at this time, these fearless mummy warriors still rushed over and surrounded them completely in a short while, and some troops even began to suffer casualties.
"What a god, it seems that we really have no hope this time. We are likely to break into an old territory." At this moment, the sand people couldn't help but feel a little desperate, because they thought that the number of troops now was the limit of their masters.
But the next moment, as the battle escalated, Li Ran and others summoned dozens of legendary tauren totem warriors, their eyes lit up.
Although these barbarian warriors are a little uncomfortable with fighting in the sand, their powerful power is the best candidate to deal with these mummy warriors. In addition, they are not afraid of the attacks of ordinary sand scorpions, and with excellent equipment, they quickly scattered the mummy warriors around them.
Half an hour later, just as Li Ran and others were exhausted and were considering whether to summon some more troops, with a vague sound of strange and lengthy horns coming from their ears, these mummy warriors who were tingling with scalp finally retreated.
At this time, Li Ran didn't care about rest. When he broke into the Pharaoh's territory, the best way was to leave quickly. So, after briefly cleaning up the battlefield, they quickly summoned some Kodo beasts and took the tauren totem warriors, and walked to other places while the night was dark, hoping to bypass the late Pharaoh's territory.
