Chapter 792: Strategic Progress
"Xiaoqing's name...... Why don't you change it? Lu Kuan asked tentatively.
"Have you considered how turnips and zebras feel?" Meng Ge crossed his waist and looked up at Lu Kuan with a look of disdain.
Lu Kuan was speechless.
Looking at the little snake lizard that interacted with Meng Ge intimately, and now calling it Xiaoqing, Lu Kuan couldn't help but smirk.
In just these two days, all the snake lizard eggs should be able to hatch.
What's next?
Upgrades, of course!
"Damian! Flea! ”
Lu Kuan shouted outside the door, and the two figures immediately flashed in one after the other, it was the cool orc sword master, and the thin flea like a bamboo pole.
"Go to the warehouse to get some supplies, fleas to find five thieves, Damian with ten cavalry, tomorrow afternoon, go out to kill monsters!" Lu Kuan said in high spirits.
"Yes!!"
The two of them were excited, and immediately took the order to retreat, Lu Kuanmo rubbed his palms, a little itchy: It's been a long time since I've been serious about leveling up monsters, so I just took advantage of this time to take my pet to level up.
"Since you're not busy, go out with me and give Xiaoqing a breath of fresh air by the way."
Meng Ge's clear voice came from behind him, and Lu Kuan naturally agreed.
These days have been staying in the house, and the little halfling is estimated to have been suffocated a long time ago.
Naturally, the shopping route has to bypass the player, and there are many areas in Runetera that have not yet been opened, where there are only NPC patrol guards and unusually clean streets.
The streets and alleys are a bit monotonous, and in the middle of winter, the trees that have taken root in the city for decades or hundreds of years have shed their emerald green coats, revealing their weather-beaten old skins.
Xiaoqing had already wrapped herself around Lu Kuan's arm, reversing the fierce and vicious appearance just now, rubbing Lu Kuan's cheeks with her two heads from time to time, with a flattering look.
Obviously, Xiaoqing, who has the same heart as Meng Ge, has realized what kind of human ranger is in front of him and what status he has in Meng Ge's heart, this appearance reminds Lu Kuan of the scene when Di Mi took the initiative to get close to Wu Xiaoxiao.
"With these snake lizards, don't we have to be afraid of the Celestial God Cult?" Meng Ge held his little hands behind his back, tilted his head, and asked seriously at Lu Kuan.
"Don't be afraid at the moment." Lu Kuan replied.
The Celestial God Sect was in the south, so it was impossible for him to attack on a large scale, and Lu Kuan's previous concern was that the other party would send a few powerful NPCs to make trouble, such as griffin knights, high-level missionaries and the like.
As long as the Ancient Storm Warden occupies air supremacy and forces those guys to the ground, led by Damian and Tauber, plus a team of 40+ level snake lizards, and then the boss hatched from the King Egg, it is not false to face the opponent's elite team.
The snake lizard's single combat ability is extremely strong, which can greatly make up for the lack of elite combat power in Rune City, even if it is a level 50 griffin knight, they have to run away if they are bitten by the snake lizard.
The same is true for Rapids Harbor, as for the threat of Isa City, Lu Kuan didn't appreciate it at all, and the imperial power of the Northern Empire was no longer as dazzling as it was a hundred years ago.
With the current scale of Runeterra City's trade, it is already difficult for Isa City to overwhelm people with power.
Listening to Lu Kuan's brief analysis of the situation, Meng Ge's mood relaxed a little, and the stone that had been pressing in his heart was finally put down.
"You're going to have to come on,"
Lu Kuan patted Meng Ge's head and said with a smile: "Practice your Xiaoqing as soon as possible, and the safety of Rune City in the future may fall on it." ”
Meng Ge pouted and slapped Lu Kuan's hand away, but when he saw Lu Kuan's solemn eyes, he was slightly stunned and nodded solemnly.
Xiao Qing, who was lying on Lu Kuan's shoulder, tilted his head, one looked at Lu Kuan, and the other looked at Meng Ge, with his current intelligence, he couldn't understand the meaning of the topic between the two.
In the huge urban area, only Lu Kuan and Meng Ge walked slowly, and more than ten meters behind them, a team of dwarven guards always kept a distance, silently guarding the two.
"By the way, didn't you send Windsor to check on the Elven Tree? There is no progress. ”
"Oh, if you don't say I've forgotten, there's progress...... I'm going to let Tsing Yi do this task, her team has been trained for so long, and her strength is very good, she should be able to win it. ”
"Well, it's definitely no problem, Sister Tsing Yi is super cool, she looks like a legendary female templar in ancient times."
"Am I cool?"
"Cut...... You're a little bit cool~"
“…… I'm so cool, you don't want to take advantage of me? Like kissing me secretly or something? ”
"Shameless!"
"Hehe, if you're embarrassed, I'll keep the guards away."
"You kiss Xiaoqing! Come on, come on......"
"I'll stay away from me!"
……
Under the setting sun, two figures, one tall and one short, chased and played, and as the distance became farther and farther, the two shadows gradually merged into one, and in the golden twilight, it was difficult to distinguish each other.
A moment later, the two of them came to the bamboo forest north of Runeter City.
This bamboo forest, dedicated to zebras, is now one of the few green areas in the city.
The lush bamboo is planted on a hill, surrounded by man-repaired and neat cross paths, and there are special gardeners to take care of them, plus a magic circle that simply maintains the temperature, a temporary fence to block the north wind, and living water from a deep well, making the whole bamboo forest particularly vibrant.
"Roar~"
As soon as it was summoned, the zebra roared happily, and its huge body rushed into the forest with a "coo-dong", rolling happily.
The wolves were also released by Lu Kuan, before in the snake lizard's lair, six celestial war wolves were seriously injured, and the zebra was killed once in seconds, so as not to reduce loyalty, but depression is inevitable.
This is the perfect time for them to relax.
Seeing Lu Kuan and Meng Ge walk into the bamboo forest, Bile Er and Si Leer stayed outside, and the guards did not follow with them, but went to the side to contact other city guards to protect the bamboo forest as a whole.
In the bamboo forest.
The zebra crunched on the bamboo, and the tough and upright bamboo pole was like a crispy candy in its big mouth, and it was very fragrant to eat.
Lu Kuan comfortably leaned on the zebra's big belly, and the small halfling snuggled in Lu Kuan's arms, and his already red face exuded a charming luster against the backdrop of the setting sun.
"Don't be complacent, I see that you are too tired, so I will reluctantly treat you." Mongo was still stubborn.
"Yes, yes~"
Lu Kuan smiled, holding Meng Ge's thin and delicate body, feeling that the whole body of the little halfling was tense, in order to relieve the other party's nervousness, he changed the topic and said, "Haven't you been recruiting officials recently, how is the progress?" ”
"Fortunately, there are a lot of people from other cities who want to apply for positions, but they are all fresh faces, I don't worry, let's put them below to experience it first."
"What about the Wind Elf sisters?" Lu Kuan thought of Biller and Siler, and asked curiously.
