Chapter 998: Resource Warehouse
On the day that Tian Tao Chong succeeded in king, the two brothers of the Xiao family were injured by the enchantment formation arranged by Xiao Xuan. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Although it has been some time and Xiao Zhanhao has basically returned to normal, Xiao Zhanyuan's strength is slightly weaker and has not recovered yet.
From the outside, Xiao Zhanyuan looked like no one else, and did not show a trace of injury.
But in fact, the energy in his chest was counterattacked, which made Xiao Zhanyuan try his best, but it was difficult to repair.
As long as the weather is bad, or when the morning and evening are at the junction, they will react.
"Second uncle, the blood stasis cream has been put away by the housekeeper, I'll go find him. ā
Although Xiao Qi is Xiao Zhanhao's son, he is often with Xiao Zhanyuan, and even the last time he went to Tianyun City, he also went together.
Xiao Zhanyuan is cold to people, but he likes Xiao Qi, a nephew, and even in order to spare Xiao Qi, he does not hesitate to abandon his cultivation.
"Ask him, and if it's inconvenient, bring it tomorrow. Xiao Zhanyuan snorted and said casually.
The blood circulation and stasis cream is not a panacea, nor is it a valuable thing, but it is generally inseparable from the injured who are affected by the energy backlash.
Xiao Qi saw that the second uncle frowned and was in pain, so he left the room and walked forward along a fork in the compound.
Yichen remained silent and quietly followed Xiao Qi.
But in a moment, Xiao Qi arrived at the housekeeper's residence, and before he could knock on the door, an old man with a white beard appeared in front of Xiao Qi.
"Seventh Young Master......"
"My second uncle wants to invigorate blood and dissipate stasis cream. ā
"Okay, I'll take it. ā
The butler answered, turned and returned to his lodgings, and after a few breaths, a bottle in his hand.
"Seventh Young Master, this bottle of blood stasis cream will be placed in the second master's place, so as not to be inconvenient to take it around. ā
The housekeeper handed the bottle to Xiao Qi and said flatteringly: "Otherwise, I'll send it over directly." ā
Xiao Zhanyuan is the second head of the Xiao family, and Xiao Qi is the son of the head of the family, and the housekeeper feels that it seems better to run away.
"No need, just take a good look at the resource warehouse. ā
Xiao Qi took the blood stasis ointment, gave an order, and turned to leave.
"Yes, Seventh Young Master, don't worry, I'll be fine if I sleep here. ā
The housekeeper replied very confidently, and watched Xiao Qi walk away before returning to his residence and closing the door.
At the moment when the gate was about to close, a breeze blew by, and the butler looked around, but found nothing.
Yichen entered the housekeeper's residence and did not stop, but searched around.
Judging from the breath, the housekeeper's cultivation has reached the level of the peak powerhouse of the battle commander, and the entire Xiao family except for Xiao Zhanyuan and Xiao Zhanhao, even the housekeeper's strength is the strongest, even surpassing Xiao Qi.
In order not to attract the attention of the housekeeper, Yichen carefully adjusted the release of spiritual power to prevent the grass from startling the snake.
There are only three rooms in total, and the butler is still drinking in the outermost one for the time being, and Yichen takes the opportunity to sneak into the two rooms inside.
After a careful investigation, Yichen vaguely felt that one of the walls of the innermost room was attached to the rocks on the hillside.
Knock Knock......
Tapping lightly on the wall made of rock, it makes a slight echo, which is obviously a hollow inside the rock.
There is no doubt that there must be a mechanism hidden here, and the Xiao family's resource warehouse should be here.
The butler soothed his wine as he wandered around the room, occasionally approaching the two rooms inside.
It's just that there is only one entrance to these three rooms, and as long as the housekeeper guards the first one, no one will be able to enter the other two.
The Xiao family's precautions should be said to be relatively strict, and near the housekeeper's residence, there are at least thirty strong men waiting to be dispatched.
With the status of the Xiao family in the capital, ordinary thieves do not dare to break in easily, even if there is a strong man at the peak of the commander, if he wants to take something from the Xiao family's resource warehouse, even if he barely enters, he will definitely not be able to escape.
Even if the battle king is strong, as long as it is discovered by the housekeeper, as soon as the news comes out, the two Xiao Zhanhao brothers will soon be able to rush to the scene.
The butler vaguely felt a hint of something strange, but he couldn't figure out what was going on.
He carefully inspected the various rooms, went to the rocks, and touched around with his hands, but found nothing suspicious.
Sigh~~
The butler breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down, and went back to the room outside to drink.
Yichen had now passed through the rocks and entered the secret passage in the hillside.
Although it was dark all around, Yichen's vision was not affected too much, and as long as he got used to it a little, he could see everything around him clearly.
The secret passage is not long, but only a dozen meters, and what appears in front of Yichen next is a dark door.
A large lock made of fine copper on the door emitted a ghostly glow in the darkness.
Yichen stretched out his hand and twisted it, but without unscrewing it, he quietly sacrificed the Cangmu sword, a light flashed, and the refined copper lock fell to the ground with a 'click'.
opened the heavy door, and in a flash, Yichen arrived in the Xiao family's resource warehouse.
"Not good!"
The butler, who was drinking, heard the sound of the fine copper lock falling to the ground, and his heart was excited, and he hurriedly pulled his throat at the door:
"There are thieves!"
After speaking, without waiting for the nearby battle commander and powerhouse to respond, he turned around and went straight to the secret room.
"The reaction was quick. ā
Yichen didn't expect that the landing of the fine copper lock actually aroused the vigilance of the housekeeper.
It seems that this housekeeper has a strong sense of responsibility and pays attention to the movement of the resource warehouse at any time.
Now that it has been discovered, it is estimated that it will not be long before the guards of the Xiao family will flock to it.
Yichen hurriedly unfolded his body, stretched out his hands, and collected all the items in the resource warehouse, regardless of whether it was good or not.
"Where are the thieves?"
Sure enough, in just a few breaths, more than twenty Xiao family guards heard the news.
A swarm rushed into the housekeeper's quarters, constantly asking questions.
"Should be ...... in the repository"
The butler had opened the mechanism on the rock, revealing a passage through a black hole.
"How many thieves are there?"
"I don't know, I didn't see a human figure, but the fine copper lock was destroyed, and the thief's cultivation was extremely high!"
So far, the housekeeper has not found Yichen, let alone a few thieves who have arrived.
However, those who can destroy the fine copper lock are at least the strong of the war king, and they must be supplemented by the king's soldiers to do it.
"You two, hurry up and report to the head of the house...... The rest, go in together and block the thieves inside the repository. ā
The housekeeper instructed as he activated the enchantment formation of the resource warehouse.
Then lead a group of guards into the secret room passage to find the whereabouts of the thieves.
"Ah......h
The butler rushed to the secret room of the resource warehouse, and when he looked at the torches brought by the guards, he couldn't help but gasp.
The huge resource warehouse is usually full of all kinds of items for auction and store sales.
At this moment, it was as if it had been cleaned, and the shelves of the entire warehouse were empty.
All the items were long gone, leaving empty shelves standing in rows.
"Seal the gates, don't let the thieves escape!"
Squeak Quack -
Regardless of where the thieves were, the guards hurriedly closed the door.
Holding torches, the group walked along the aisle between the shelves, carefully inspecting and not letting go of any suspicious places.
Airplanes~~
Before the housekeeper came in, Yichen had already swept away the things in the resource warehouse.
Yichen, who was in a state of stealth, would not feel a trace of pressure at all in the face of more than 20 strong commanders.
Just as he was about to leave with a full load, he suddenly felt an invisible coercion that burst out around the gate.
Enchantment Guardian Array!
Although it is not a very clever enchantment formation, it can trap ordinary War King beginner-level powerhouses.
If Yichen forcibly breaks into the formation, he will reveal his body, and he will also be attacked by the energy of the enchantment protection array.
Even if you are lucky enough to break through the enchantment, if you run into the two Xiao Zhanhao brothers, I am afraid that there will be a crisis.
"Where did the thief come from, he dared to go to Xiao's house to spread wild!"
Just when Yichen was thinking about how to break the formation, an angry roar sounded, but it was Xiao Zhanhao, the head of the Xiao family, who arrived.
"Tell the head of the family, my subordinates didn't see anyone entering, but the refined copper lock was destroyed and the resource warehouse was stolen...... I'm sure the thieves are still inside. ā
The housekeeper reported loudly to Xiao Zhanhao through the thick door.
According to the butler's feelings, the two enchantment formations were still intact, and it was impossible for the thieves to leave in such a short period of time.
When he found that someone had broken in, he immediately activated the two enchantment formations.
The first is the entrance to the rock wall, and the second is between the passage and the chamber.
Even if the thief is a strong warrior, it is difficult to quietly break through the two-fold enchantment formation in a short period of time.
"You continue to search inside, and I'll wait here, and I must catch the thieves. ā
Xiao Zhanhao's voice obviously had a sense of anger, and although it passed through the barrier of the gate, it still reached Yichen's ears.
It turned out that Xiao Zhanhao couldn't get in by himself. ā
Yichen was still thinking just now that if Xiao Zhanhao could come to the resource warehouse through the enchantment formation, the threat would inevitably increase greatly.
Everyone is a strong warrior, as long as Yichen uses the king's qi, he will be discovered by Xiao Zhanhao, and the stealth will lose its effect.
However, because Xiao Zhanhao was unwilling to easily adjust the enchantment formation, for fear that the thieves would take advantage of the gap to escape, he would rather wait in the passage than enter the resource warehouse.
Xiao Zhanhao's idea is not wrong, in the resource warehouse, there are already more than 20 battle commanders and powerhouses, if they can capture the breath of the thieves, they can still harass and force the thieves to be unable to break the enchantment protection array.
Xiao Zhanhao, on the other hand, could control the strength of the enchantment formation in the passage, and when the thief's energy was exhausted, he could capture it in one fell swoop.
However, Xiao Zhanhao would not have thought that Yichen's stealth technique had already been practiced perfectly, and even if he himself was present, he might not be able to perceive Yichen's existence, let alone these strong commanders.
After confirming that there were no guards at the level of the Battle King in the resource warehouse, the stone in Yichen's heart finally fell to the ground.
At the moment, concentrate and calm down, unleash your spiritual power, and use the Enchantment Communication Dafa to try to release the control of the Enchantment Guardian Array.
