"This thing is not bad!"
Standing on the city wall of great calamity, Ji Hao curiously stroked a three-hundred-meters-tall golden statue.
According to Yi Di, who witnessed the attack launched by the city of great calamity with his own eyes, these golden statues standing on the city wall could easily destroy the ground with a radius of hundreds of miles, and kill over a thousand starry sky spirit turtles, which had amazing defensive powers.
Ji Hao gently stroked the golden statue. His sensitive fingers carefully touched the fine patterns on the surface of the statue, which ordinary people couldn't see clearly. His spirit power was like water as he carefully eroded the golden statue. Ji Hao wanted to figure out the structure of these golden statues. It would be best if he could analyze their detailed blueprints.
Thanks to Great Liberty, Ji Hao attained all of Polo Do's memories. As a wise Flow Moon man, Polo Do had memorized almost all books and records of Yu Dynasty. From Polo Do's memories, Ji Hao gained a great deal of knowledge.
Magic formations, spell symbols, magic medicines, puppets, large-scale warships, flying forts … Ji Hao learned almost everything about Yu Dynasty.
Sadly, the cities of great calamity were purchased from Pan Yu world by nobles from Yu Dynasty with a fortune. They had the cities of great calamity, but didn't have the blueprints. Therefore, Ji Hao couldn't figure out how the cities of great calamity were designed and built.
Ji Hao's spirit power drilled into the golden statue bit by bit, carefully peeping into its secrets.
The cities of great calamity broke the strong wind and clouds, returning to Liang Zhu City at their highest speed. The city was fully filled with non-humankind warriors. On the ground, countless non-humankind warriors had been rushing back to the north at their highest speed while gasping quickly.
On behalf of the twelve families in power, Polo Jia seriously asked Emperor Shun to help the non-humankind put down the rebellion in Liang Zhu City.
Without hesitation, Ji Hao extorted Emperor Shun right away. He said that Emperor Shun was a noble being, and Emperor Shennong and Emperor Xuanyuan were elders of the humankind. Without enough benefits, Emperor Shun and Emperor Xuanyuan shouldn't help the non-humankind bring back the human warriors who had been destroying the city.
After a series of bargaining, the three cities of great calamity were handed over to the humankind, under Si Wen Ming's direct control.
Ji Hao and the others boarded the cities of great calamity and followed the non-humankind army to Liang Zhu City.
"It really is a good treasure … Sure enough, extortion is the way to get rich." The internal structure of this three-hundred-zhang tall golden statue was extremely complicated. Countless hair-thinner energy circuits filled the statue, and countless different-sized spell symbols were connected together in an extremely complicated, multi-layered spiral structure. Ji Hao had to concentrate all of his attention to avoid touching these spell symbols, which had unknown functions.
A deep cough could be heard. With a sullen face, Piji Nu walked out from behind a purely decorative flowerpot statue.
"Marquis Yao!" Piji Nu called Ji Hao much more politely than before, probably because he needed help from the humankind.
"Aha, Emperor Piji Nu, what a coincidence to see you here! It's such a nice day, isn't it? "Ji Hao stroked the golden statue with both of his hands, and talked nonsense without even raising his head.
Piji Nu's eye corners twitched intensely.
When Ji Hao left the Chi Ban Mountain, the weather was indeed nice and sunny. But it was already midnight, and the sky was covered with thick clouds. Countless lightning bolts were twisting in the thick clouds, and a heavy downpour was imminent.
Was this really a nice day?
Piji Nu gave a bright grin and said, "It's indeed a nice day … I have the best fruit wine here. Would you like some? This is a top-grade wine made by my great-grandfather with a ten-thousand-year-old cinnabar fruit as the main ingredient. It's very good for the cultivation of souls. "
"Just say it!" Ji Hao said bluntly, "I'm busy cracking the structure of your city of great calamity. I don't have time to waste on you."
Piji Nu's face twitched slightly, then he laughed embarrassedly and said, "Aha, alright, I'll just say it … You have to know that as the emperor in power of the Piji Family, I indeed have a generous income every year, but I can't control my personal income completely. In Pan Yu world, our homeland, I have a large family to support. "
"Hmm, hmm, go on." Ji Hao almost put his face close to the golden statue. He opened his erect eye and released a clear beam of divine light on the statue. A few spell symbols sparkled on the statue's surface, turning the foot-wide statue translucent, exposing the spell symbol formation inside, which was thousands of times more complicated than a termite nest.
Seeing Ji Hao recklessly prying into the wisdom of Pan Yu world master craftsmen, Piji Nu was enraged. But soon, he suppressed his anger. With an enchanting smile, Piji Nu continued, "Therefore, I saved for many years, and used my future earnings as a pledge. Finally, I collected a large sum of money and bought …"
"Your spirit beast, right?" Ji Hao finally turned around and glanced at Piji Nu.
"Yes, my sky dominator!" Seeing Ji Hao finally respond to him, Piji Nu hurriedly gave the brightest smile and said, "I hope you can understand. Without it, my power is weakened by at least seventy percent. I can't live without it!"
Ji Hao finally left the golden statue. He straightened his body, held his hands behind his body, and looked at Piji Nu from head to toe.
"What about it?" After a whole ten minutes, Ji Hao finally began talking, "Without any benefits, why should I give the sky dominator back to you? You see, in order to ask Emperor Shun to persuade the human army in Liang Zhu City, you gave up three cities of great calamity. Three whole cities of great calamity! "
Ji Hao raised three fingers to emphasize how great a fortune the three cities of great calamity were.
Piji Nu's expression changed slightly as he responded with a deep voice, "I'm willing to pay a certain price to redeem the sky dominator, but …"
Ji Hao shook his head and lowered his voice as well, "But you don't have money now, do you? Alright, I don't need you to redeem your spirit beast. I, Marquis Yao Ji Hao, have never been a greedy man! "
Piji Nu was shocked by Ji Hao's shamelessness. He extorted three cities of great calamity from the twelve families in power, but how could he say that he wasn't a greedy man?
But, alright, the three cities of great calamity were public properties … In terms of personal benefits, Ji Hao was truly not a greedy man.
Breathing deeply, Piji Nu lowered his voice and said, "Alright, please tell me, what do you want? But, I have to make it clear. The sky dominator is important to me indeed, but don't go too far. "
"How can I go too far?" Ji Hao narrowed his eyes, looked at Piji Nu from head to toe, and said, "Let's be friends!"
Ji Hao smilingly reached out a hand to Piji Nu and said, "Everyone needs friends, don't they?"
Piji Nu looked at Ji Hao in surprise. A while later, he abruptly gripped Ji Hao's hand and said, "Do you want me to sell information about Yu Dynasty? I have to tell you that my dignity doesn't allow me to sell any information about the Piji Family! "
"That's enough. I only need information about the other eleven families!" Ji Hao grinned brighter and brighter.
