Long Aotian, together with Cai Cai, Zhou Zhao, and Luo Yuan, were now standing beside a tall middle-aged man. He said in a low voice with a sad face, "Uncle, that group of people is really scary. I suspect that they are the people of the Ancestral Dragon Empire who came in this time. They stole the resources that we collected with great difficulty. They are really inhumane!"
The middle-aged man looked at Long Aotian and said, "Then why didn't they kill you?"
Long Aotian smiled bitterly and said, "We ran fast, uncle. We were counting the treasures, thinking … thinking …"
"Thinking about what?" The middle-aged man looked at him coldly.
Long Aotian scratched his head and said, "I was thinking about whether I could hide some of them … but they found us and robbed us."
"Short-sighted!" The middle-aged man pointed at Long Aotian's head and said, "If it wasn't for your mother, I would have slapped you to death! Xiaolong, you're already so big, you should learn to be a little more careful. Your mother left early, leaving you as a child. Sigh, after I separated from my cousin, I never saw her again. If you didn't look so much like her, do you think I would have taken you in? Just look at yourself, you good-for-nothing. You even brought a few burdens with you! "
The middle-aged man looked at Cai Cai and the other two and said, "I didn't ask you to come, but you risked your life to follow us. It's okay if they die, but if anything happens to you, how am I going to explain it to your dead mother? Also, can you not be so stupid? How many times have I told you to hand over the treasures that you got? We are a team. Can't you have a sense of collective honor? Without a team, how could you be where you are today? Besides, I am here. Do you think I will let you suffer? "
"Uncle, I know I am wrong. I will not do this again." Long Aotian lowered his head and said gloomily.
"That's enough. Later on, whoever snatched your things, point them out to me. Damn it, it has always been us who snatch other people's things. I want to see which bastard dares to mess with us!" The middle-aged man said angrily.
"Uncle is the best!" Long Aotian said obediently.
Zhou Zhao and Luo Yuan looked at each other speechlessly.
Cai Cai, on the other hand, looked at Long Aotian with an infatuated look. She thought to herself, "My Brother Long is the best, even his lies are so sincere!"
At this moment, someone came over and reported to the middle-aged man in a low voice, "Ninth Elder, the largest square of this ancient ruin is occupied by the people from the Zulong Empire. According to our speculation, that place should be the location of the biggest treasure in this ancient ruin."
"Mhm. Where are those bastards from the Vast Ocean adventurer team?" the middle-aged man asked.
"Those people are also observing in the dark. However, the people of the Zulong Empire have already laid down a large number of Formation Talismans on the plaza. If they recklessly barge in, they might cause a mishap."
The middle-aged man sneered, "Formation talisman? Let's scan the area with the drone first! "
The subordinate said, "Someone has already done that. They've learned their lesson and set up the talismans in places where the drones can't reach."
"Who's so creative? They actually learned this trick? "The middle-aged man was slightly startled.
"I think it's someone who escaped from their inner circle." The middle-aged man's subordinate smiled bitterly. "Also, Ninth Elder, using mechanical attack talismans isn't something new. A real Formation Master just needs to be a little more careful, and this trick will be ineffective."
The middle-aged man glanced at his subordinate. "How can I not know about this?"
The subordinate was speechless. He thought to himself, 'Why did you say that if you knew?'
The middle-aged man looked at him and said, "Many people have used the power of technological civilization to activate those talismans. However, a real Formation Talisman Artist is not an idiot. Why would he give someone such an opportunity? Wasn't the reason why the people over there succeeded just now because it's hard to guard against a thief in the family? Otherwise, the moment the drone cluster appeared, they would have launched countless attacks. "
The subordinate chuckled and said, "As expected of the Ninth Elder."
"Let's go and take a look first. Since we're here, there's no reason for us to only catch some small fish and shrimp. We have to catch a few big fish," the middle-aged man said, and a large group of people suddenly moved.
Several groups of people from the Cang Hai Empire's Cang Hai Adventurers also gathered at this time.
Everyone's face was filled with grief and indignation.
This was because they had just learned that one of the groups … the high-level forces were completely annihilated!
A Formation Grandmaster, a Support Grandmaster, a Spirit Warrior Grandmaster, an Advanced Grandmaster Talisman Artist, an Advanced Grandmaster Spirit Warrior … and a number of other elite Talisman Artist and Spirit Warriors.
These were the absolute backbone of the Cang Hai Adventurers!
Not a single one was left. They were completely annihilated!
Even now, they still did not know who did all of this.
But was there a need to guess?
The Holy Empire's group of Interstellar Pirates had just smelled blood and rushed over. Based on the time, it was impossible for them to have done it.
Then, the only ones who had this kind of ability were the scum of the Zulong Empire!
This was clearly because this place was far away. Even though this was the territory of the Cang Hai Empire, it was beyond their reach.
"No matter what, we must avenge Old Sun and the others!"
"We must avenge Old Sun!"
"They killed our Grandmasters and slaughtered our young elites. This is a blood feud!"
"They even killed the youngest son of the Third Boss …"
The remaining group of people from the Cang Hai Adventurers gritted their teeth and swore.
The leader in charge of leading the team this time was a senior elder of the adventurers. He would definitely be held responsible for such a huge incident.
So, he was the most radical at this moment. He looked at everyone and said coldly, "Although the identity of the group of people from the Zulong Empire is mysterious, other than their officials, it's almost impossible for such a lineup to appear. Also, from their style of doing things, we can feel the strong style of the Ancestral Dragon officials. So, this time, no matter what, we must make all of them stay here. Also, we must take all the treasures here with us! We must not let a single Ancestral Dragon go, and we must not let the Holy Empire's scum take advantage of us! "
"That's right, Elder Lu is right. There are many young geniuses among the group of people from the Zulong Empire. Obviously, this is a training operation for the old to lead the new. They are using ruthless killing to train the new people. Since that's the case, let's add fuel to the fire! Elder Lu, I have a suggestion … "A middle-aged man in his forties looked at Elder Lu and said," I suggest that we temporarily join forces with those scum from the Holy Empire and kill those people from the Zulong Empire! "
Someone objected, "Are you kidding me? Join forces with those scum from the Holy Empire? What do you think? Isn't this asking a tiger for its skin? "
The middle-aged man in his forties said, "Don't get too worked up. Let me finish."
He looked at the person who objected, then looked at Elder Lu. "The people from the Holy Empire this time are their infamous Interstellar Pirates. Although they belong to the Holy Empire, to be honest, they will not be loyal to the Holy Empire's royal family."
Elder Lu nodded at the side. "That's right. They are a bunch of scumbags! Commander Zhao, please continue. "
The middle-aged man in his forties, Commander Zhao, nodded. "Let's not think about the grudges between countries first. We are now the number one adventurers team! Although we don't do dirty things like Interstellar Pirates, we should temporarily forget about the official background behind us. We should think about this from the perspective of the Jianghu. "
Many people were deep in thought when they heard this.
The Canghai adventurers team's official background was indeed very strong. It was not wrong to say that they were a small sockpuppet of the officials.
They were a force used to collect all kinds of resources for the Canghai Empire's royal family.
Hiding among the people, they could do things more flexibly.
Commander Zhao continued, "Our main mission now is to kill those Zulong people and avenge our dead brothers and the third head's son. Then, we will take away the resources hidden here."
"But if we fight alone … Although we are still very strong now, we don't have to be afraid of any of them if we team up. But if the Holy Empire and the Zulong Empire join forces first, I'm afraid we will be at a disadvantage. "
Elder Lu nodded thoughtfully and said, "Yes. Although there are grudges between countries in everyone's hearts, this is Jianghu in fact. No matter how much we dislike each other, it is not impossible to form an alliance at a critical moment. Just like how we, the Canghai Empire, once formed an alliance with the Zulong people. In fact, we all want to beat each other to death. "
Commander Zhao said, "Elder Lu is right. That's what I mean. Let's first join forces with the Holy Empire and kill those Zulong people. After that, we'll split the biggest portion of the resources 50-50, half for each of us! "
At this time, someone objected, "Why? How can we let the Holy Empire pirates take away the resources? "
"Yes. No matter what, we cannot let those pirates take away our resources!"
Elder Lu waved his hand. "Silence!"
Everyone quieted down.
Elder Lu looked at everyone sternly. "Whose resources? Does this planet … this ancient relic have anything to do with the three empires? "
"But …"
"No buts. This place is the Canghai Empire's territory. But before we got the news, did anyone here know about this place?" Elder Lu looked at everyone. "And … have we not been to the ancient relic in the Holy Empire's territory? Or have we not been to the ancient relic in the Zulong Empire? "
"But working with the Interstellar Pirates is a bit too …"
Elder Lu sneered. "Too what? When did we work with the Interstellar Pirates? We have never worked with anyone! All of this was fought for by ourselves! As for the resources, we found them ourselves! We killed a group of people from the Zulong Empire, killed countless of their elites, and brought back a large amount of resources and treasures! "
Commander Zhao smiled and nodded. "Yes, we have never seen the Holy Empire's people."
Elder Lu nodded. "That's right."
Those who were slow to react finally understood what Elder Lu and Commander Zhao were up to, and they all revealed expressions of sudden realization.
Most of them smiled but did not say anything.
They already knew what Commander Zhao was thinking when he proposed to work with the notorious Interstellar Pirates from the Holy Empire.
Elder Lu looked at everyone. "Who else has any objections?"
"No objections, Elder Lu is wise!"
"No objections, Commander Zhao is wise!"
The group nodded.
This kind of cooperation was beneficial to them.
What feud with the Holy Empire?
That was a f * cking matter between countries!
They were now a group of adventurers whose companions were killed by the Ancestral Dragons. Of course, they had to avenge their companions.
Elder Lu nodded. "Now, contact the people in space immediately and tell them what we want. Then, let them communicate with the Holy Empire."
Then, he looked at Commander Zhao. "Xiao Zhao, I'll leave the task of communicating with the Holy Empire's people to you!"
Commander Zhao smiled, "That's my wish!"
…
…
Shirō Makino, Lin Zijin, Yu Xiuxiu, and Xiao Yueyue strolled slowly towards the largest square of the ruins.
They did not try to contact the people sent by Three-Deity Island to die. The underground ruins were too big. It would be difficult to find them one by one. After discussing with Xiuxiu, Xiao Bai decided to wait until they were sure that it was safe before going to the agreed place to look for them.
Along the way, they saw some altars, but they had all been activated.
Although the calculation of those formulas was complicated, Xiao Bai was not the only expert in this world. At most, it would take them longer to solve it. But in the end, they could still solve it.
At this time, Shirō Makino's advanced artificial intelligence suddenly sent back a message.
After reading it, Shirō Makino was stunned for a moment. Then, he said with a faint smile, "Interesting!"
"What's going on?" Lin Zijin and the other two moved their heads closer.
Shirō Makino said, "Didn't my advanced artificial intelligence fight for control of a starship from Canghai adventurers? Although I couldn't completely seize control, I left a lot of backdoors there. I can intercept some information from their side at any time. "
"And then?" Lin Zijin asked excitedly.
"And then, Canghai Empire plans to temporarily form an alliance with the Holy Empire's interstellar pirates!" Shirō Makino said calmly, "They want to gather their strength and get rid of the group of people on Three-Deity Island."
"That's great!" Yu Xiuxiu waved her little fist. "Dog bite dog bite dog … There's nothing more perfect than this!"
Xiao Yueyue frowned slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn't say anything.
Yu Xiuxiu glanced at Xiao Yueyue. "Yueyue, at a time like this, put aside your thoughts about your country for the time being. Three-Deity Island … doesn't represent the Zulong Empire. The group of people who came this time are either like us, waiting to be purged, or the group of people who want to purge us. What else do you think we can do other than sit back and watch them bite each other? "
Shirō Makino said, "We can also take the biggest batch of treasures! If the treasures inside are really what we think they are … then, with it, our group of people will not be troubled by resources for many years to come. "
Yu Xiuxiu shook her head. "The people who came from Three-Deity Island this time are not as weak as they seem on the surface. They are terrifying. Let's put it this way. Even if Canghai and Holy Empire join forces, they might not be able to gain any advantage against Three-Deity Island. "
Lin Zijin asked, "Do you know who is coming?"
Yu Xiuxiu smiled bitterly. "Sister, how would I know? We are all a group of targets to be purged! Will they let us know? But according to Three-Deity Island's past style of doing things, they must have a backup plan. Perhaps even Manager Zhang and the others might not know about it. So, I suggest that we find a safe place to hide and wait for them to fight. "
Shirō Makino thought for a while and said, "Okay, let's do as you say."
Yu Xiuxiu was a little surprised. She looked at Shirō Makino in surprise and asked, "Why are you so obedient?"
"We really can't participate in such a large-scale team battle. You're right. If we're not the oriole and get ambushed from behind, it's not worth it. " As Shirō Makino spoke, he looked at Yu Xiuxiu and said, "Just get some insects to monitor them. Let's find a place to rest."
Lin Zijin said regretfully, "It's a pity that we can't barbecue."
Shirō Makino thought for a while and said, "It's not impossible, but we have to leave someone outside."
Lin Zijin was slightly stunned.
Shirō Makino said, "In my space ring."
Lin Zijin immediately curled her lips. "Forget it, it's too boring. I'm not going!"
Under normal circumstances, living people couldn't be stored in the space ring that had been modified by Big Beauty. However, there was a completely closed circulation system in the starship.
People could live well in the starship.
In other words, with the space ring modified by Big Beauty and the starship given by Li Ye, Shirō Makino could bring an army to any place without anyone noticing!
This thing was not used to prevent the smell of barbecue from spreading.
Yu Xiuxiu and Xiao Yueyue were a little dazed. They probably couldn't imagine how the barbecue was done in the space ring. They thought that Shirō Makino and Lin Zijin were talking nonsense.
The four of them took a small aircraft and traveled carefully. They arrived at a building complex that was more than 500 kilometers away from the square. They randomly found a building and sneaked in.
Yu Xiuxiu released a bunch of mechanical bugs, which quickly flew to the underground square at a speed of more than 300 kilometers per hour.
More than 20 minutes later, the mechanical bugs successfully transmitted the scene over there.
Shirō Makino praised, "It's really different with Xiuxiu! Mechanics are mighty! "
In this kind of ancient underground ruins, a pure mechanical civilization like Yu Xiuxiu was even more practical than Big Beauty who obtained information through the Internet.
On the screen, a large group of people was nervously busy in the huge underground square.
The young geniuses on Three-Immortal Island were all carrying out various arrangements in an orderly manner under the command of Xiao Yueyue.
"Wenwen is over there." Yu Xiuxiu zoomed in on one of the perspectives and saw Tian Wenwen standing there with her arms crossed with an indifferent expression, watching the group of people busy.
The mechanical clown didn't have the ability to collect sound because this function could easily be detected.
The reason why Three-Immortal Island was so terrifying was not just because of the Spirit Warrior and the Talisman Artist, but also because of its powerful technology!
Yu Xiuxiu was considered a top talent among the younger generation. Very few people could crack the things she made. But it didn't mean that no one could.
"Luckily, Wenwen is fine." Xiao Yueyue heaved a sigh of relief.
Yu Xiuxiu smiled and said, "She's smarter than a monkey. How could anything happen to her? It's unavoidable that she'll be suspected. But she definitely has a way to resolve it. Unfortunately, I don't dare to contact her now. "
"Don't worry. Be patient and you'll find a chance," Shirō Makino said.
Yu Xiuxiu nodded. "Yes, I have patience, and so does she. Everyone has been waiting for so many years. The one with the least patience is actually you."
The corner of Shirō Makino's mouth twitched.
Yu Xiuxiu watched and suddenly said gloatingly, "Looks like they haven't been able to crack the altar's formation yet. Haha, a bunch of idiots!"
Almost at the same time, the Vast Seas Adventurers and the Holy Empire Interstellar Pirates who had already negotiated the terms of cooperation received a message at the same time.
"How about we talk about cooperation?"
Elder Lu of the Vast Seas Adventurers had a faint smile on his face, but he heaved a long sigh of relief in his heart.
Those damned Ancestral Dragons!
Cunning and shameless!
Elder Lu and Luo Jiangchun of the Holy Empire Interstellar Pirates looked at each other. Almost at the same time, they opened the screen and showed the message.
"Thank you, Master Luo!"
"That's great, Elder Lu!"
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. The group of people behind them also smiled.
"The Ancestral Dragons are really cunning. Speaking of which, we're all from the same origin, right? But why are the Ancestral Dragons so cunning and shameless? "Elder Lu asked Luo Jiangchun with a smile.
Luo Jiangchun smiled. "Maybe they think everyone else is stupid?"
Elder Lu could not help but curse. "Damn it! They're a bunch of shameless bastards! How dare they talk about cooperation with both sides at the same time! If I hadn't already discussed it with Master Luo, we might really have fallen into their trap! "
"Elder Lu is right. But … how should we reply to this message?" Luo Jiangchun winked at Elder Lu.
Elder Lu immediately knew what was going on and laughed. "Of course … agree to it!"
On Elder Lu's side —
"Cooperation? What cooperation? Why should I cooperate with you? You Ancestral Dragons are shameless and cunning! You've killed so many of our people and you want to let it go just like that? "
Meanwhile, Steward Zhang did not know that the people from Vast Seas Adventurers had already blamed them for the deaths of the few Grand Masters and advanced Grand Masters. He was a little disdainful when he saw Elder Lu's reply.
He curled his lips and replied with a cold smile —
"Let's not call each other shameless and cunning. It's boring. You've killed many of our young elites, right? Now we have a problem. The seal on the altar is very complicated and we can only decipher one-third of it. So, if you want to cooperate, you'll have to give us a reply. We've already contacted the Holy Empire. Since everyone was fated and the people of the three empires were gathered here, why not temporarily put aside the feud between them and work together? By then, we'll split the resources equally among the three empires. What do you think? "
Elder Lu was taken aback and he could not help but look at Luo Jiangchun.
Luo Jiangchun could not help but frown. This matter was a little different from what they had imagined.
Could it be that the shameless Ancestral Dragons did not want to work together to kill the other party?
Instead, they encountered a problem when they were deciphering the seal?
Luo Jiangchun frowned. "We don't have many people who are good at deciphering seals on our side …"
"That's right. We're only good at robbing." A handsome young man beside Luo Jiangchun mumbled.
Luo Jiangchun glared at Long Aotian. "Shut up!"
The group of people could not help but laugh.
They were in the honeymoon phase of their cooperation. They would not fall out because of a joke.
Elder Lu said, "We do have many people who are good at deciphering seals on our side … Then, let me tell him this!"
He replied to Steward Zhang right in front of Luo Jiangchun. "I have many people who are good at deciphering seals on my side! Why should I cooperate with you? If you know what's good for you, get out of that place. I don't want to see a bloodbath when we meet again. "
Steward Zhang quickly replied, "Friend, I'm not joking with you. You'll know when you get here. If your No.1 Adventurer Group can decipher the seal, we'll leave immediately! We won't go back on our words! But what if you can't? By then, we'll have to work together! "
Suddenly, Luo Jiangchun said, "Elder Lu, say yes!"
Elder Lu was taken aback.
Luo Jiangchun said, "Your Commander Zhao didn't lie to me earlier, did he?"
Elder Lu said, "Why would he lie to us? No matter how shameless we are, we can't use our dead brothers to fool people. "
"Then, I didn't lie to you. My nephew …" Luo Jiangchun patted Long Aotian's shoulder. Long Aotian grimaced in pain.
Luo Jiangchun said, "He worked so hard to find a few Spiritual Pearls, but they were robbed by those shameless Ancestral Dragon people! It's not a big deal, but it's not a small deal either. But I'll never be friends with them! "
Elder Lu nodded. It was not a big deal, but it was unlikely that the Interstellar Pirates would go back on their word since they had cooperated with each other.
Although they were notorious, that notoriety was mostly due to the fact that they robbed the merchants in the interstellar space.
If they didn't keep their word, there would definitely be a bloodbath.
Luo Jiangchun looked at Elder Lu and said, "So, you promise him that you'll go and have a look. I'll tell him that I don't believe him, but I'll go and have a look first. Then, we'll split up. When we meet, we'll create a tense atmosphere. Make it look real … Mm, that's not a problem, right? "
Elder Lu smiled shyly. "We're good at that."
Luo Jiangchun laughed. "So, we're from the same origin … We're all very cunning, aren't we?"
Elder Lu laughed. "But we're more particular!"
"Alright, that's a deal. We'll split up now and see you at the plaza!" Luo Jiangchun said.
"See you at the plaza!" Elder Lu nodded.
