1141 Harvest
The two of them quickly reached an agreement.
Under the current circumstances, breaking off from the royal family of the Empire was a bad choice.
To meet the Emperor of the Empire!
Tang Mingyue was prepared to stabilize the Empire for the time being, and Fang Heng could take advantage of this time to properly deal with the treasures he had robbed.
After fighting for so long, he should at least get some money, right?
Even if they quit the trial now, it would still be a huge profit!
“I can go back with you, but what about my friends?”
Chen Wubin glanced at Fang Heng and the other, “His Majesty only wants to see you. Everyone else is free to go wherever they want.”
“Alright, I’ll go back with you.”
“Thank you for your cooperation, Your Highness!”
Chen Wubin was also worried that Tang Mingyue would refuse to cooperate, so he was relieved to hear that. He cupped his fists at Tang Mingyue and gave instructions to the other Empire guards.
“His Majesty has ordered that the treasures in the royal treasury have been stolen. Everyone must cooperate with the silver-armored guards to recover the stolen treasures, and no suspicious person will be let off!”
The Empire’s soldiers cupped their fists in unison, “Yes, sir!”
Seeing Tang Mingyue being taken away by the silver guards of the Empire, Wei Tao and the others gathered.
Wei Tao saw the eye contact between Tang Mingyue and Fang Heng and thought they had a plan. He said, “What’s the situation? Do you have a plan in the royal family?”
“No, it was an emergency. We were surprised too.”
Hearing this, Mikhael frowned. He was a little worried about Tang Mingyue’s condition and said in a deep voice, “From the game prompt, Tang Mingyue’s situation is not good this time. What’s our next step? Do you want to go over and take a look?”
Wei Tao looked at Fang Heng, “Tang Mingyue is our teammate. We can’t ignore her. I’ve analyzed that the royal family might be related to the next main storyline mission. We can continue to explore this direction. What do you think, Fang Heng?”
“Mm, your guess is the same as mine. Let’s split up. You guys follow them and find a way to investigate any clues related to the royal family. Keep in touch. I have some clues to investigate, and I’ll meet up with you guys after I’m done.”
“Alright,” he said.
After a short discussion, they split up again.
The players from Prilla Guild were confused.
What did that mean?
What were these characters doing?
Why was the plot development getting more and more confusing?
What were the people from the Central Federation doing?
And that group of players!
Which side were they on?
Would it be the barbarians or the Empire?
Why was it so strange?
They couldn’t possibly be on the side of the undead feudal lord Fang Heng, right?
After waiting for a long time, Ed saw that feudal lord Fang Heng was finally free. He walked forward cautiously and asked Fang Heng, “Lord Fang Heng, did you see Her Highness Mingyue just now?”
“Yes, Her Highness Mingyue has been urgently summoned by the royal family. There won’t be any problems.”
Ed replied. He turned back to look in the direction where Tang Mingyue was taken away, thinking that she didn’t look like she was fine.
“Then, the misunderstanding between us…”
Fang Heng looked at Ed with a gentle expression.
It would be great if all the players were as understanding and reasonable as Ed.
He was no longer afraid of any hostile missions!
“Of course, everything that happened before was a misunderstanding. I’m willing to trust you, and I’ll pass on your words to my friends.”
Hearing this, Ed heaved a sigh of relief and thanked Fang Heng repeatedly, “Thank you so much. Thank you so much.”
…..
In the underground world, Wangnet quickly moved forward.
The black stratum corneum on the surface of his body slowly faded.
Under the cuticles’ layer, Wangnet’s skin was covered in red cracks.
Blood mixed with crystallized fragments kept oozing out of the cracks.
Suddenly, Wangnet’s pupils contracted, and a blackthorn crystal condensed in his pupils.
Wangnet controlled his body and slammed it into the wall in front of him!
“Bang!”
He clenched his fists tightly and curled up into a ball. His muscles contracted and squirmed uncontrollably as if he was enduring great pain.
After a long while.
Hu!
Wangnet let out a long breath.
His body which was gradually disintegrating finally stabilized temporarily.
Wangnet wiped the sweat off his forehead and looked into the distance. He muttered, “There’s not much time left… Necromancer…”
…
On the other side, after parting ways with Wei Tao and the others, Fang Heng immediately returned to the underground world to look for the cave-dwelling beasts that were transporting the treasures, urging the team to set off for the Land of Plague.
There was a change in plans.
The stones stolen from the royal treasury this time were bigger than before, and the mental power fluctuations were more obvious. They needed to be transported back to the Land of Plague as soon as possible for the sacred tree.
Considering that there was a possibility of encountering barbarians who would come back halfway, Fang Heng decided to escort the stone back personally.
Sending one box was sending, and sending a batch of boxes was also sending.
Fang Heng decided to send all the treasures he had stolen from the Empire’s treasury back to the Land of Plague.
The team of cave-dwelling beasts would assist in transporting the items.
Naturally, Sandy chased after Fang Heng.
He couldn’t stand the loneliness. After escorting the transport team for a few steps, he pestered Fang Heng to open the boxes and check the goods.
The moment he thought of the words “the Empire’s royal treasury,” Sandy felt as if there were thousands of monkeys scratching at his heart.
“Well, that’s good. Let’s check the goods.”
Fang Heng nodded.
After working hard for half a day, the matter had finally come to an end. He sat down and checked his harvest in peace.
Fang Heng found a familiar box and opened its lid.
The box was filled to the brim with magic cores.
Everything else aside, the magic core was in place, and the last piece of the ghost tower’s puzzle had been completed.
After returning to the Land of Plague, he could immediately complete the construction of the ghost tower!
The only troublesome thing was that the treasure chests were items from the royal treasury. They were judged by the game to be special items and could not be put into the backpack, nor could they be transferred out of this world.
The impact wasn’t big.
However, the origin of the magic core still needed to be cleared up.
“Hmm, I’ll get someone to spread the news when I get back to the Land of Plague. I’ll say that the Prilla Gaming Guild helped me snatch the magic cores from the barbarians.”
Although it could not completely solve the problem…
Let’s do this first!
Then, there was the unknown black stone.
The transport team’s largest box was filled with black stones. It took more than 20 cave-dwelling beasts and nightmare rhinos pulling the cart together to barely transport them.
As soon as he opened the box, a strong wave of mental power spilled out of the box.
Fang Heng frowned and closed the box immediately.
It seemed that the box that the Empire used to store the black stones also had the effect of isolating spiritual fluctuations.
Fang Heng continued to check.
A box of high-end decorations.
Fang Heng picked one up casually.
