1117 Runestone


    “Good stuff!”


    Revere’s eyes lit up as he nced at the rune in Ed’s hand.


    Humans had always been good at infighting.


    With the runestone, they could easily invade the interior of the Land of gue.


    Ed heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the rune was working.


    He had bought the rune crystal from the Tianli Mercenary Group during the day, and it had taken him a lot of effort.


    The heavenly dawn mercenary group relied on the power of the rune crystals to transport supplies to and from the Land of gue.


    This time, Ed bought a total of three pieces, spending a total of 500,000 Empire bunis.


    This amount of money was enough to buy more than 20 high-level spell scrolls.


    The entire yer guild’s ie for more than half a year.


    It would be a lie to say that he didn’t feel heartache.


    However, Ed knew that this investment was necessary.


    Once his n seeded, he would be able to obtain a magic core from the ghost tower, and that would be a huge profit!


    He would take this gamble!


    Ed nodded at the yers behind him.


    The yers stepped forward and entered the path that the vines had cleared, pouring the kerosene they had brought with them on theyers of vines and roots.


    The forest was very quiet, and the yers poured kerosene on it.


    It seemed that they had already treated everyone as their teammates under the effect of the talisman.


    After pouring more than half of the kerosene on them, the yers retreated again.


    “Fireball!”


    Ed raised his scepter and threw a fireball at the forest ahead.


    The fireball hit the root that protruded from the ground.


    BOOM!!


    The kerosene was instantly ignited.


    The area in front of them was immediately engulfed in a sea of mes!


    The two mage yers raised their staffs at the same time. “Strong wind, strike!”


    The wind-type spell pushed the mes deeper into the forest!


    Under the effect of the oil and wind-type spells, the sea of fire quickly spread into the forest!


    Under the burning of the mes, the trees and vines let out a weak squeak, gradually turning ck, charred, and burned to ashes.


    Ed stood still and looked into the distance.


    “BOOM! Boom Boom Boom!!”


    A momentter, a violent explosion resounded through the sky.


    It was a sess!


    Hearing the explosion, a smile appeared on Ed’s face.


    The explosion came from the depths of the forest.


    Following the violent explosion, a cloud of thick smoke rose from the distance.


    Looking up, the giant tree that covered the sky had already been engulfed in mes!


    The fire lit up the sky!


    Hehe…


    Seeing this, Revereughed coldly in his heart.


    Almonta was truly an inflexible fool.


    The giant forest’s sacred tree did look very dangerous at first nce.


    But now?


    Wouldn’t the problem be solved by burning it directly?


    “Let’s go!”


    Revere raised his battle axe and led the team into the forest.


    Ed nodded and led the yers to follow.


    Fire was very effective against such mmable vines and trees.


    In addition, he had also bribed several of the Tianli mercenaries to send carriages of high explosives and embers into the Land of gue, deliberately dumping them around the tree of God.


    Of course, the Tianli Mercenary Group would have to pay extra for these tasks.


    Two hundred thousand Bunis.


    There was no room for negotiation.


    The good news was that it seemed like everything was worth it!


    His n was exceptionally sessful!


    ...


    Ed nced at his backpack.


    He still had five high-tier fire magic scrolls that he could save forter.


    As long as they cleared the forest blocking their way, they would leave the rest to the barbarians.


    ording to the deal with the barbarians, as long as they could break into the Land of gue, they could get the magic core and everything would belong to the barbarians.


    …


    Hani City.


    Lord Brent was in an exceptionally good mood today.


    He personally hosted a banquet in the city’s tallest Tianfu Pavilion Restaurant to entertain the feudal lords.


    The banquet was filled with singing and dancing.


    The feudal lords raised their sses in celebration.


    Everything that had happened during the day made them feel like they had made a huge profit!


    ...


    After the territory had a mage tower, it would be able to attract mages to join and improve the territory’s power. There would also be an annual ie, and after upgrading the mage tower, it would also have the ability to teleport.


    Most importantly, these mage towers did not require any maintenance fees!


    After the tour, many feudal lords returned to their own territories.


    However, there were still many feudal lords who had nothing to do.


    After learning that Fang Heng would bepleting the ghost tower in two days, they were not in a hurry. They nned to stay in Hani City for two days and y. When the time came, they would go and see the situation after the ghost tower waspleted.


    Slightly tipsy, Lord Brent suddenly felt the ground beneath his feet shake.


    Then, there was amotion outside.


    Lord Brent frowned and shouted towards the door, “What’s going on? Why is it so noisy?”


    A feudal lord’s guard pushed the door open and reported, “My Lord, there’s a fire outside.”


    Was it on fire?


    Lord Blout immediately sobered up from the alcohol.


    “Where’s the fire?”


    “My Lord, please be at ease. It’s not in Hani City, but in the forest far away.”


    The forest?


    It didn’t matter, he couldn’t burn it all.


    Lord Brent was still thinking, when he saw the sword saint beside him, Chepo, stand up.


    With a solemn expression, Chepo walked to the window and looked from a distance.


    “What’s wrong, Chepo?”


    “I’m afraid the Land of gue is in trouble,” Chepo said in a deep voice.


    “Ah?”


    Lord Brent didn’t understand for a moment.


    He couldn’t help but stand up and walk to Chepo’s side to look out the window.


    Lord Brent saw arge red cloud in the distance reflected by the mes.


    “That ce is …”


    “Hmm, judging from the location, the fire is in the direction of the Land of gue.


    Lord Brent was shocked.


    He immediately thought of the forest he saw during the day.


    Therge areas of the forest along the way to the vige had almost been cleared.


    Other than the Land of gue, where else could there be such a big fire and such a big movement?


    Brent suddenly became anxious and shouted, “Hurry up! Everyone, let’s go put out the fire together!”


    “My Lord, it’s gettingte, and it’s very dangerous to move at night. We’ll need an hour to get there.”


    “Don’t talk nonsense! I’ll go now!”


    “Yes!”


    “Also, have the City Lord go with us! Send the army over to support! Immediately! Now!”


    The other feudal lords were also anxious, and they quickly called for the apanying guards to go to the rescue.


    Motherf*cker!


    The Land of gue! That was the ghost tower they had invested in!


    There were many high-level materials, including magic cores, and even Fang Heng was left in the Land of gue…


    If something were to happen …


    He didn’t dare to think about it!


    The feudal lords who stayed in the city immediately ordered their men to prepare their warhorses and rushed to the gue area.


    …


    In the Land of gue, above the halfpleted ghost tower, Fang Heng looked into the distance.


    A hint of anticipation shed in his eyes as he watched the team of yers approach the ghost tower.
