Chapter 358 Caravan Leader Yang Wu
Chapter 358 Caravan Leader Yang Wu
At this moment, Greenmore was completely terrified.
He simply recounted how Chen Xian had asked him to find the human caravan.
Are you sure that monkey-man wasn't human?
"..."
Greenmore felt like crying.
"Everyone, I don't know if he's human or not, but I think he looks a lot like a monkey."
“You are the first humans I have ever seen, and you are all wearing masks.”
The leader held the token and pondered for a moment before removing his mask.
“You all take them off too, so he can see what we humans look like.”
After seeing the leader searching below, Greenmore already knew that the monkey people he thought he was talking about were actually humans.
Then he saw his other subordinates taking off their masks one after another, and their faces, which were different from those of the monkey tribe, further confirmed his idea.
Before the leader could ask a question, Greenmore shouted, "That's right, he looks a lot like you, he must be human."
“However…” Greenmore hesitated.
Seeing his hesitant manner, the leader's temper flared up immediately.
The leader's name was Yang Wu.
They were among the first batch of guards recruited by Biquan Manor.
At the time, he was almost forty years old and still a fourth-level martial artist. He thought he would only ever reach the fourth level in his life.
At that time, a potion that could enhance fighting spirit was circulating in the main city of Nice.
It can help professionals advance their careers.
But one costs one hundred gold coins.
He worked hard all his life, and it still wouldn't be enough to buy one.
I originally wanted to join a mercenary group, venture deep into the Warcraft Forest, and adventure to find rare materials to exchange for gold coins and buy medicine.
But she was rejected because she was too old.
Just when he was feeling disheartened, he heard that Biquan Manor was recruiting guards and would give out gold coins for free.
However, the selection process is extremely rigorous.
It's not just about assessing ability, but also about testing character.
More than 3,000 people participated in the assessment that time, but only 100 people remained in the final round.
This doesn't even include the nearly 10,000 people who were rejected during the registration process.
The final challenge is an ancient oath magic.
The oath was extremely harsh; once sworn, one became a slave of the manor and was forbidden from ever returning.
These are not ordinary slaves sold into servitude, but true spiritual slaves, like elves, whose souls cannot resist.
From the beginning, everyone knew that a contract would be signed.
I never expected that this contract would be a soul contract.
In the end, more than half of the more than one hundred people left.
Yang Wu struggled with his thoughts for a long time. He loved freedom all his life and didn't want to be so bound.
Until he saw a former companion.
That companion had been working as a guard at the mountain resort for three months.
At the time, the two were about the same strength, with Yang Wu being slightly stronger.
However, when they met this time, Yang Wu discovered that his companion had already broken through to the fourth level and reached the fifth level.
And it's also tier 5, level 6.
The companion said that he had also signed a contract.
However, apart from the inability to betray the soul contract, it has no other effect on them.
And they give you pills to boost your strength every month.
Those pills are ten times more effective than those on the market.
Yang Wu made up his mind at that time and signed the contract.
On the day the contract was signed, he received a pill.
That pill allowed him to break through the fourth-order bottleneck and reach the fifth order.
He had just reached the fifth rank when he received an advancement reward: the opportunity to cultivate once in the manor's purification pool.
A night of cultivation in the Refinement Pool solidified his fifth-level realm, and there was even a sign that he was about to break through to the next level.
Manage their beautiful elf, and prevent him from breaking through again within a week. Proceed gradually, and he can naturally enter the sixth rank within a year.
A week without being allowed to break through?
Is this even human language?
Not to mention the fifth tier, even for a fourth tier level 1, advancing one level takes years.
Now, things are really messed up; we have to control ourselves for a week to avoid breaking through.
What excited Yang Wu the most was that the beautiful elf said he could reach the sixth rank within a year.
Level six!
Those are all powerful individuals that various factions are vying for.
In the past, he would never have dared to imagine that he could reach the sixth rank.
Moreover, while staying at the resort, aside from not being able to go out freely, all I need to do is patrol according to the scheduled shifts.
The rest of the time was spent cultivating.
The manor has a dedicated training ground, and the guards can spar and exchange experiences with each other.
Legendary experts also give lectures every month.
The manor had become like a high-level magic and martial arts academy.
Yang Wu gradually developed a sense of belonging to the mountain villa.
He used to occasionally glance at the beautiful elves, but after learning that those elves were all the manor lord's maids, and that the manor lord had even made them serve him in bed, he changed his mind.
Yang Wu would never again blaspheme the elves.
In his heart, those elves were like the manor lord's wives.
The longer Yang Wu stayed at the manor, the more he admired the master he served.
Not only are there beautiful water spirits like Lady Lan'er, but also the subordinates of Master Xian'er who can refine magical pills.
I heard that the owner is a boy who is not yet twenty years old.
Yang Wu's reverence for his master had reached the point of worship.
He first met his master during the dragon attack on the manor.
The Frost Dragon Ace suddenly attacked the manor.
He would never forget that terrifying roar of the dragon.
At that time, he was already at level 8 of the fifth rank, and he almost couldn't withstand the cold when facing the Frost Dragon.
Fortunately, the young man, the owner of the manor, dispelled the chill with his flute.
And despite its small size, the master did not flinch when facing the terrifying dragon.
Yang Wu was initially terrified when facing the giant dragon, but seeing his master fight the dragon alone gave him a surge of courage.
He then commanded the remaining Tier 5 guards to head towards the magic crystal cannon.
At that time, guards below the fifth rank couldn't even withstand the dragon's pressure and all fainted.
The magic crystal cannon can only be activated by personnel of rank 5 or higher.
It was a terrifying night.
In the end, they drove the dragon away.
However, the master he admired so much left the manor.
The last time I heard news of my master was during the continental martial arts tournament held by the Holy See.
The owner is in the lead with an absolute advantage.
But the last news that reached the manor was that the owner had disappeared.
After that, the Saint of Light visited the manor, and was personally received by Lady Lan'er and Lady Xian'er.
Not long after that day, Lady Lan'er renamed the Starry Sky Merchant Guild to Starry Sky Sect, and she became the acting sect leader.
Lady Xian'er became the head of the medicine hall.
In addition, many other churches were established.
There are adventure teams specifically tasked with going out into the Monster Forest to collect materials.
A branch specifically responsible for mining ore.
A shop specializing in crafting equipment.
There are churches that go out to sea.
The largest group consisted of land-based trading teams like Yang Wu's.
Later, they recruited another 20,000 to 30,000 guards.
Most of the guards were sent out to other areas.
With mining and weapon forging under his belt, Yang Wu once thought that Lady Lan'er was planning a rebellion.
Emperor Tianqing will definitely send troops to suppress it.
He was prepared to live and die with the Starry Sky Sect.
But it has been a year and a half now.
The emperor of the Tianqing Empire made no move whatsoever.
Yang Wu only recently learned about the sect leader's experience participating in the competition.
The Vatican eventually sent the Hall of Judgment into the competition venue, saying it was to try the Patriarch.
After that, the sect leader disappeared.
It is said that the sect leader's team members were personally brought back by the Saint of Light.
However, Lord Goode and Lord Bo never returned to the manor after that.
Yang Wu and his brothers guessed that he was learning from the Saint of Light, preparing to avenge their sect leader.
Knowing the reason, Yang Wu developed hatred for the Papacy.
He cultivated diligently and became the thirtieth legendary expert in the manor.
Once you enter the legendary realm, you no longer need to go out; you can simply cultivate peacefully in an important location.
But Yang Wu was unwilling; he wanted to make his own contribution to the Starry Sky Sect.
So they chose the furthest and most arduous task: trading with the beastmen.
Everything needs to be done in secret.
If the Vatican discovers that we are trading strategic resources with the Orcs...
This will definitely cause trouble for the Starry Sky Sect.
Unexpectedly, during this routine transaction, I actually saw that sect leader's token.
How could Yang Wu not be excited? But the troll hesitated and deliberately concealed the truth, which infuriated him.
"But what... explain this to me."
Yang Wu was so excited that he released all of his legendary aura.
