Chapter 220: Strike First and Defeat Them One by One
Next to Wang Xu was a young man in ragged clothes. When facing everyone, this young man behaved somewhat submissively.
At this time, Wang Xu said: "Lord, this man said he had some important news to report, so my subordinates brought him here."
Ning Ze nodded, then looked at the young man carefully, and said lightly: "What is your name? What news do you want to report?"
"In reply to your lord, my name is Qin Pingzhi. I volunteered this time because I want to tell you something about these beasts."
Qin Pingzhi was a little submissive at first, but in order not to leave a bad impression on others, he mustered up the courage to speak out in one breath.
"Oh? Tell me." Ning Ze said immediately.
This man is obviously one of those whose hands and feet were bound by the soul of the armored soldier before. Perhaps some useful information can be obtained from his mouth.
Qin Pingzhi also took a deep breath again. He had no choice but to face these people now beyond his imagination. Those armored men who seemed to him to be too strong were easily wiped out by these people. Not even one is left.
Although there are situations where more players beat fewer players, such a record is still worth talking about.
After organizing his words, he slowly said: "Sir, you may not know something. I was caught by these beasts two days ago. After I was caught, I have been put on the boat by these beasts, almost He wanders on this river day and night."
"And after these two days of observation, my subordinates discovered that these beasts actually regard us as food for something. Every time the boat travels a certain distance, it will dock at the shore and throw some of the people into the river. .”
"Wait, you mean, there is more than one place like this?" Ning Ze suddenly interrupted.
Qin Pingzhi didn't understand what he said, but he quickly realized it: "If you mean the place where the river water appears black like this, there is indeed more than this place. In my wandering life these days, I have seen We have visited five similar places, and our ship has been traveling to and from these five places."
Hearing this, Ning Ze couldn't help but change his expression, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, according to Qin Pingzhi, the people on their ship were responsible for the five locations with the evil gods' tokens. In essence, the armor The number of soldier souls is not said to be multiplied by five.
But then, Qin Pingzhi said: "By the way, we are not the only boats that have been wandering on this river. I once noticed that our boat actually encountered other boats, and they were all like this. We, too, held many people hostage."
"Furthermore, from the conversation of these beasts, it seems that there are other boats like this, and each boat is manned by about twenty armored men like this."
Ning Ze suddenly realized that the problem was not simple. Although he had already guessed that the number of armored souls would not be too small, he was still holding on to a bit of luck.
Looking at it now, the number of these armored soldier souls is probably not small. Each small boat is equipped with more than twenty armored soldier souls. If there are four boats, it means that the number of these armored soldier souls There won't be less than a hundred.
After taking a deep breath, Ning Ze asked, "Then do you still remember where your boat docked?"
Qin Pingzhi recalled it carefully, and then said: "I probably still remember it, but I'm afraid I can't tell the exact location, but this boat has always been traveling on a river section. If you get on the boat, look for these places It's certainly not difficult. And if the timing is right, you should be able to encounter other boats."
After receiving this response, Ning Ze couldn't help but smile.
Although the number of these armored soldier souls will probably not be small, since they have already offended the other party, it is better to destroy the other party's evil god's tokens one by one before the other party can react.
Of course, the more important thing is to find other boats. If the armored soldiers equipped with these boats can be defeated one by one, then the opponent's strength can be greatly reduced.
At least, it is better to face more than twenty armored soldier souls at once than to face hundreds of armored soldier souls at once.
"By the way, sir." Qin Pingzhi said suddenly: "Actually, when I was captured by these beasts, I was sent to a certain place and then arranged for a test. As for the purpose of the test, I don't know. But there must be a certain purpose, and it’s very likely that that’s the base camp of these beasts.”
Ning Ze got useful information again and immediately asked: "Then do you know where it is?"
Qin Pingzhi indeed shook his head and said: "I don't know about this, but if you can pretend to be the arrested person, you may be sent there."
His casual words made Ning Ze suddenly realize that this was indeed a method, but the difficulty of this method was how to catch the souls of those armored soldiers.
Of course, it was not the right choice to just listen to one family's words. He immediately asked Wang Xu to ask other people, and finally got similar comments from Qin Pingzhi from these people.
"Your name is Qin Pingzhi, right? It's a good name. You and those people will get on the boat later and find out several other places. If you perform well, you will be rewarded."
Ning Ze immediately asked Wang Xu to lead the people to drive over the small boat that had been intercepted before. Although this small boat had the function of "unmanned driving", it could still be controlled by humans.
When the boat was brought here, he asked everyone to get on the boat together. Although he always called the boat a small boat, it was actually not too small. It was equivalent to an ordinary-sized river boat carrying cargo. There is no problem in carrying 60 or 70 people.
Qin Pingzhi also took advantage of this time to learn about the relevant information of Ningze's team, and finally learned that Ningze was the lord of this group of people, and that the territory was not far away. Although more specific information was not found out, This also shows that these people are human players, not indigenous people of this world.
Thinking of this, he gradually felt relieved. After all, he was also worried that he had finally jumped out of a fire pit and ended up in another sinkhole.
As long as it's a human player, that's the best outcome. Even if you become a subject, you can at least save one life, right?
But for other people, it caused quite a commotion.
When these people were transferred to the boat, perhaps the familiar scene suddenly made everyone excited as if they had been stimulated.
After all, they were put in this small boat like food in captivity. Every time they went to a place, some of them would die and end up in the river. Now they were gathered together again and returned to the boat.
This familiar scene immediately frightened these people.
Qin Pingzhi was the only one who remained calm, but he did not come forward to explain anything. After all, he was not the one who made the decision here, and it was not his turn to say anything. Besides, he was happy to see such a situation, as long as these people The worse he behaves, the better his image will be.
Ning Ze didn't explain too much. Although these people seemed to be in an abnormal mental state now, they were human resources after all, and they would become his property after signing the soul contract.
But judging from the current situation, it was precisely because these people were not in a good mental state that he did not sign soul contracts with these people immediately. Instead, he waited until these people recovered a little before discussing the matter.
Wang Xu and others were controlling these people. Although they would inevitably intimidate them during the suppression, fortunately their hands and feet were loosened, so in the end these people gradually calmed down.
Soon, the boat started sailing on the river. The boat originally had the "unmanned driving" function, but after being intercepted by them, it was forcibly driven back here. This also resulted in the "unmanned driving" function of the boat. disappeared, and if you want to move the boat, you can only use manpower instead.
Fortunately, he had asked Wu Tianyou to make some oars before, and they were just in use now. Otherwise, it would not be easy to sail the boat today.
Qin Pingzhi kept pointing out the route for them while recalling it. After the boat traveled more than 20 kilometers, they finally arrived at the location of the second evil god's token.
The river was also black, so this section of the river seemed to be polluted. But to his surprise, when they were on this small boat, they seemed not to be affected by the death force, but once they got off the boat, The effects of that death force were felt by all.
There were even people who were in the same situation as him, mistaking the river for land and trying to jump directly into the river. Fortunately, they were caught in time to avoid such a tragedy.
Therefore, Ning Ze ordered everyone to stay on the boat and not move. Then he patted the flame mark on his arm. In an instant, a small ball of fire burst out from his arm.
It seemed that he had affected his sweet dream. The moment the small fire ball came out, it showed great dissatisfaction. The little man transformed from the flame floated in the air and burned more luxuriant flames towards him. It looked really a little bit... It smells like anger.
But when it saw the black river water next to it, it immediately showed a surprise gesture and even plunged directly into the river water.
The tentacles seemed to have smelled a wonderful smell, and they came out from behind him at this time. They also showed a joyful attitude, swinging behind him like a seaweed.
Ning Ze was not surprised by these two weirdos. The battle in the river belonged to Little Flame, and it was hard for him to interfere.
The performance of the small fire ball is still strong. The evil god's token is like a dish to it. There is absolutely no way to handle this small fire ball. It can only struggle symbolically, but it is soon eaten by the small fire ball. The ball of fire devoured everything.
After returning to the shore, the tentacle began to nod and bend towards the small fire ball like a dog. The small fire ball was not stingy, and separated a few hairs of black substance to the tentacle.
Immediately, it floated in front of Ning Ze again, and used its small hands transformed from flames to spread its teeth and claws in front of him. Ning Ze also looked at this little guy helplessly. The whole process was full of action language. If it weren't for his flexible mind, I'm afraid I really can't understand what this guy is trying to express.
"Okay, I'll call you out next time something good like this happens." Ning Ze responded symbolically.
After receiving the answer, Xiao Huotuan immediately smiled, stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder in the air, as if to say to him "I'll take care of everything", and also to say "you are still sensible".
The tentacle behind him also took the opportunity to pat his shoulder, completing the action for its "master", but then Ning Ze glared at him and quickly retracted into his body.
Seeing that his request was granted, Xiao Huotuan got back into his body.
Looking at this pair of living treasures, Ning Ze murmured speechlessly: "What are they?"
However, it can also be seen that the evil god's token seems to be a very important thing to the little fire ball, or a wonderful food.
The small fire ball that swallowed two evil gods' tokens in succession was not without any changes. At least the color of its flames changed. From the pure red before, it gradually showed some orange.
Although he still doesn't know what this change in flame color means, it will definitely bring some changes to the small fire ball, and it will be a positive change.
The tentacle didn't change much. Maybe it swallowed too little black substance. After all, it was only a few strands of hair. It is estimated that some changes will only be seen after begging for some more from the small fire ball.
Ning Ze didn't want to waste time by staying here. There were only four hours left until night, so he had to seize some time to clear away all the remaining evil gods' tokens.
In the following time, under Qin Pingzhi's guidance, the boat arrived at several other locations with the evil god's tokens.
Because this section of the river was previously handled by their small boat, they did not meet any other armored souls along the way. Qin Pingzhi also couldn’t remember the location of the branch of the river, so he could only look for it one by one. Go down.
However, there were some changes on the small fire ball. When the small fire ball devoured the third evil god's token, the color of its own flames had completely changed to orange. The specific effect of this change is unknown, but when When this thing turned into orange flames, it deliberately flicked in front of the tentacles. From this, it can be seen that the change in flame color definitely significantly improved the small fire ball in some aspects.
But when the small fire ball devoured the fourth evil god's token, the color of its flames once again showed some yellow color. (End of chapter)
