Chapter 518 - Satan
Top of Tianlei Mountain.
After another day, the quota was set. At this moment, the stage should have been packed full of people, and there should have been an endless stream of challengers entering the stage.
But now, not only was there no challenger to be seen, there was not even a shadow to be seen around the arena. Only one person sat on each of the three arenas. His back was facing the outside and revealed a large skull design on the back of his head. The three of them felt the same way.
Actually, it wasn't that there wasn't a single person at the top of the mountain. Rather, it was already packed full. However, those people were forcibly stopped outside. Not to mention a challenge, even the edges of the arena couldn't be approached.
As for the group of people who stopped them, each of them had a skull pattern on their backs.
Skull Regiment! Xiao Qianhan glanced at it, the light in her eyes slightly fluctuating.
Skull Regiment was one of the top mercenary groups in the Tian Luo Continent, only second to the supreme Ghost Mercenaries. Mu Tianlang had previously said that the people of the Ghost Mercenaries wanted to monopolize the three spots. But the one who was executing it was the Skull Regiment!
It was hard to explain, but she could smell a hint of conspiracy.
Someone at the side saw Xiao Qianhan and the others, and took the initiative to walk over: "You guys are also rushing towards the Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb s, right? Look, everyone over there are from the Skull Regiment. They want to get all three spots, so we've waited for this year for nothing. "
"Last year was the same?" Xiao Qianhan glanced at the stage, and retracted her gaze, and asked the man.
"It's more than last year. In the past hundred years, it had been like this every year! I live nearby, so I try my luck every year. "It would be a pity if they came from afar and didn't even have the chance to ascend the stage." That person's tone was full of resentment when he spoke.
After Xiao Qianhan finished listening, the light in her eyes darkened. Why does the Skull Regiment need so many Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb? If it was close to a hundred years, then it would be close to three hundred sections of Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb! The most important thing was, Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb could only be used to refine high level pellets. Low level pills or treasures were useless to him.
"Moreover, the people of the Skull Regiment have never sold their Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb before, so no one would be able to find a place to buy them even if they wanted to. Ten-odd years ago, there was even someone who raised a sky-high price on the spot, which the people from the Skull Regiment did not pay attention to. This also caused the few sections of Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb on the market that were originally left to rise in price, directly becoming ten times more expensive! " The person did not care about Xiao Qianhan's reaction as she continued. As for the Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb, they also seemed to have an obsession.
On this point, Xiao Qianhan was not surprised. Aside from the special demand groups for Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb s, only the various large powers had the hard need to refine high grade pellets. And monopolizing the Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb, was equivalent to provoking those big powers. It was obviously not a wise decision to offend the major powers for the sake of some money. Therefore, there must be someone backing the Skull Regiment.
If it was only the Skull Regiment herself, she would have been annihilated by all the major forces.
"Every year, there will be a lot of people going to the Tianlei Mountain, but not a single one of them joined hands to fight against the Skull Regiment together?" She asked doubtfully. For nearly a hundred years, it was impossible that not a single person with sufficient strength had appeared before.
"Of course! However, they all failed. " That person did not have any expression of joy on his face, but instead had a face of despair. They came every year, and every year they were the ones who took the three spots. One year an expert came and defeated one of them. In the next second, the three of them combined their attacks and killed that person! Even the clan that has always protected the Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb did not utter a single word regarding this matter. "
Xiao Qianhan was silent, her gaze turned to the three people on the stage once again. No wonder she felt that the three of them were not weak. So they were the three Great Warrior Generals of Skull Regiment. Of course, strength wasn't weak in comparison to most people.
"Thank you very much." After sending her thanks, she, Yun Mojin and the rest walked towards the direction of the stage.
Seeing that, the person hurriedly called out, "Girl, you still want to go to the competition arena? I advise you not to go. After that, the people of Skull Regiment became smarter. Not waiting for you to enter the arena, a group of people immediately surrounded you, not even bothering to follow the rules of the competition. "
"Thanks for the reminder. The Polygonum cuspidatum Thunb is extremely important to me, I must obtain them. " Xiao Qianhan turned his head and smiled, his tone firm.
That person didn't try to persuade him otherwise. He went back to his original position and looked inside. A sliver of hope appeared in his eyes.
Xiao Qianhan and the rest continued to advance, and directly went to the outskirts of the place, where there were only a few people, making it easier to walk. Once they were inside, it would truly be overcrowded. Many people would not easily give up hope unless it was the last minute.
Their progress made many people feel as if their interests had been violated as they let out discontented voices.
"Hey, what are you doing! What are you trying to squeeze in for! "
"Stop squeezing! Don't you see that everyone is standing here!? They are rushing to be reincarnated! "
"Exactly! He pushed his way in so enthusiastically, it was as if he could go up to the arena! In the end, we still have to stand there! "
Most importantly, there is a lady who impatiently blocked the path of Xiao Qianhan and the rest, "What are you squeezing into? Can't you see that the people in front of us are full? "Go to the back!"
Xiao Qianhan was previously at the front, but Long Yu was later sent to the front to lead the way. Therefore, the closest person to the girl was Long Yu.
"Full? It's you guys who are here to watch the show that's full, right? You must have spent a lot of medicinal pills on the mountain just to watch a show? " Long Yu glanced at the woman and spoke with disdain.
Xiao Qianhan's mouth hooked up slightly. She ignored them, turned her body, and continued walking forward.
"Sigh!" I'm talking about you guys, you have no face or skin! " The lady immediately stopped Xiao Qianhan, "So what if I have spent too many pills!? I came early! "You poor fools, to save a few pills, you have to wait an hour longer. You deserve to be placed at the bottom of the list!"
Xiao Qianhan's gaze turned cold, and she stretched out her hand towards Long Yu, "Give me the storage bag."
Long Yu understood, what Xiao Qianhan wanted was the storage bag that would carry the Silver Wolf Mercenaries's spoils of war. Thus, he immediately accepted the storage bag and handed it over.
Xiao Qianhan took it, opened her mouth, and raised it up to her head.
The woman was startled, then mocked: "What? You still want to take me in?! "
The corner of Xiao Qianhan's mouth hooked up coldly, and the angle of her hand slanted a little. Immediately, a large amount of pills were poured out of the storage bag, like flowing water.
Those medicinal pills fell onto the woman's head one by one. Then, they rolled down one by one! In just an instant, the number had probably exceeded two hundred!
The woman was stupefied. After a flash of anger passed through his face, he immediately squatted down to pick up the pill. At the same time, he said, "You're using these pills to buy my seat? "Deal."
"No," Xiao Qianhan lightly shook her head, the corner of her lips curled up, "It's because of the carelessness of the medicinal pellets, anyone who sees it will get a share."
