One had to say! Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong individually was not too powerful. In comparison, Zuo Tiancheng who similarly was an A grade historical NPC, his level 2 Invincible Golden Blade would increase attack by 16 points with the additional effect of 26% life-steal. It was much better than recovering 10 HP per minute and increasing attack (defense) by 16 points!
However, if Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong cooperated, then they would be quite powerful. Yuchi Gong would get an additional buff of 50% damage reduction. Although it was definitely not as good as the effect of Pei Yuanqing’s level 10 Hundred Wars Without Injury, it was also remarkable. At least, with the help of Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong wouldn’t lose to Zuo Tiancheng as long as there was no difference in equipment. Door Gods after all were Door Gods, when they cooperated, it was very difficult to defeat them.
At this moment, Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong walked out of the Council Hall.
They looked at a robust man in the front and asked in unison: “Young man, since you have a grievance, you might as well enter the hall and speak bluntly. As for the rest of you, don’t gather around and make trouble! No one can change the rewards of the mission issued by the Divine and Mighty Alliance. This is Divine and Mighty Alliance’s rule, no one dares to break it!”
Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong had great prestige. After they spoke, everyone around the scene dispersed, and Fan Kuai followed Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong into the Council Hall. Not long after, Huan Ji appeared, and after he whispered a few words with Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong, Shake the Heaven, Mu Mengmeng and One Blade Hundred Thousand came out. Everyone was on the scene now.
Qin Qiong pointed at Shake the Heaven and asked: “Fan Kuai! Look carefully, is this person the bandit leader you mentioned?”
“Yes! It’s him.” Fan Kuai’s eyes were spitting fires as he glared at Shi Hao.
“In that case, you can leave. There is no reward for you here!” Qin Qiong was very majestic. He didn’t allow Fan Kui to say anything and added: “This person is a rank two official of our Divine and Mighty Alliance, Shake the Heaven. How can he be the bandit leader? Moreover, this time, he came here to go to the dock and return to the West Flower Region after completing a mission. Do you know? Your action is tantamount to kidnapping important talents of Divine and Mighty Alliance! I think you made a mistake, so I’ll be lenient. If you don’t leave now, then don’t think about living this place again.”
“Really! Sure enough, officials are colluding with bandits. I believed that you, Qin Qiong, were a man, but you actually can’t even distinguish right from wrong like this! Then, I’ll also not be polite.” Fan Kuai suddenly used Wail Like Ghosts and Howl Like Wolves. However, it was very strange this time! No one heard Fa Kuai’s roar and no one was stunned.
“This is!” Fan Kuai stared at a charm in the hands of Qin Qiong.
This charm was a consumable item, just like HP potions and MP potions. It couldn’t be used again, and it needed to be created again. The charms had a wide range of effects. Some charms were used for buffs, some for debuffs and some were quite special. For instance, the charm used just now was Silence Charm. As the name suggested, it would get rid of all sounds.
Wail Like Ghosts and Howl Like Wolves was a stun debuff caused via the sound. Without the sound, this skill was useless.
Naturally, some people might ask, where did this charm come from. Only the county or above level could manufacture charms. In the Central Flower Region, only Jianghan County had this thing.
Qin Qiong smiled and said: “Fan Kuai! How many times did you use the same trick in my Jianghan County? Guards! Arrest Fan Kuai! Your intention to attack Divine and Mighty Alliance’s officials is obvious to all and the crime is indisputable. Send him to prison for now. We will give him a trial some other day.”
Upon hearing this, Fan Kuai turned around, wanting to run away. Unfortunately, Yuchi Gong had already blocked Fan Kuai’s path. He couldn’t escape at all and was dragged away by the guards.
Afterward, Qin Qiong stepped forward and said to Shake the Heaven: “I’m sorry! Forgive us, Lord Shi, it’s because my teaching was not strict enough and caused you to suffer like this. Huan Ji has already told me everything. You can return to the West Flower Region at any time. Naturally, if you are willing to stay in Jianghan County for a few more days, that’s also fine. Everything is up to you, no need to ask my permission.”
Shi Hao smiled. He had no intention to object. However, he looked at Mu Mengmeng, seemingly waiting for Qin Qiong to issue Mu Mengmeng’s punishment.
Qin Qiong paused for a moment and he looked serious.
He then said: “Mu Mengmeng! You have repeatedly robbed near Jianghan County and disrupted public order. Moreover, you have wasted ten precious Raging Flame Balls of the Divine and Mighty Alliance. No one can help you to clear your crime. You can go to prison at ease. However, considering the face of Lord Shi and Huan Ji, in the prison, no one will dare to make things difficult for you. As for when you will be released, it depends on the higher-ups’ intention.”
Shi Hao sighed. This was also a good result. Mu Mengmeng also didn’t resist. She took the initiative to walk to the prison. For Mu Mengmeng, the prison might be a new place of entertainment. Moreover, looking at her spirit, it seemed like there was no place she couldn’t escape.
“Shake the Heaven, I’m leaving! I owe you a favor. I will go look for you when I have a chance.” Li Yidao followed Mu Mengmeng. However, it was unknown why Li Yidao said that he owed Shi Hao a favor before leaving. What kind of favor was this? Shi Hao seemed to know and also didn’t seem to know.
The time quietly passed.
When the sky was getting darker, Shi Hao put on the Disguise Attire and covered the appearance effect of Shadow Dragon Soul. He then stealthily came to a remote forest near the county’s dock with the identity of Blowing Wind Left A Passion. Here, the river was flowing continuously and the waves had never been calm. Many vagabonds had gathered here. And under the illumination of the moonlight, their gaze seemed to be full of some hope. Upon a careful look, these vagabonds’ clothing was tattered. None of them even had the most basic equipment.
Shi Hao stepped forward and said: “You all have waited for a long time. Tomorrow, follow me back.”
A white-robed man stepped out and replied: “Roger!” This person was Wu Guang. And beside Wu Guang, Zhang Jiao, who was still wearing the yellow robe, was quietly calculating something important.
Suddenly, Zhang Jiao frowned and said: “Tomorrow, it’s full of variable factors! My lord might be in danger. We must be more careful. Don’t take it lightly and be careless.”
The next day, the sun slowly rose above the sea level, and the sea breeze blew along with the ship’s horn.
“Brothers! Board the ship in order.” Wu Guang used a hundred million copper coins given by Shi Hao to contract a passenger ship for the three hundred brothers. After all, a single ship ticket was not cheap. Since more than 300 people were traveling together, it was obviously more beneficial and safer to charter an entire ship.
Zhang Jiao quietly stood beside Blowing Wind Left A Passion, still calculating whether today was good or back luck. Obviously, looking at his frown, it seemed that he was still unable to get the answer.
However, with Shi Hao’s combat power, who could threaten him now? Moreover, this place was within the Divine and Mighty Alliance’s sphere of influence and Shi Hao was a rank two official of Divine and Mighty Alliance. In addition, Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong also had a fairly good relationship with Shi Hao because of Huan Ji. Therefore, they wouldn’t come to look for trouble with Shi Hao. As for Qin Zheng, his troops had yet to resurrect, so he had no ability to cause trouble. It seemed that Zhang Jiao had miscalculated this time.
Not long after, all brothers had already boarded the ship, and everything was still normal.
“Let’s go! Lord Zhang, it’s time for us to board the ship.” Shi Hao said…
