Volume 1: Lonely Island Chapter 224 The Banquet of the King City Lord
Ye Mo and the other monks ate a soft nail at sea, and had no choice but to return to Ye's Immortal Town.
As soon as he came back, Mr. Guan hurried over and reported to Ye Mo, "City Lord, Wang's Immortal Town has sent someone to send an invitation to invite you to attend a small gathering of the surrounding town lords. ”
Mr. Kwan handed the invitation to him and stood aside.
Ye Mo took an invitation from Mr. Guan, which was simple and unpretentious, and there was no publicity.
Ye Mo opened it and immediately smiled.
He was really thinking about something, he was about to visit some of the surrounding city lords and ask them how to deal with those cunning and stubborn Rakshasa bandits, but he didn't expect that many city lords were present at this Wang family's gathering, and he saved him from visiting them one by one.
Ye Mo closed the invitation and found that all the monks were looking at the invitation in his hand.
"This invitation was sent by the Wang City Lord, and three days later he held a small gathering of the surrounding city lords in the Wang Clan's Immortal Town and invited me to attend. I'm just going to ask them for advice on how to deal with the Rakshasa pirates and their Kraken sharks."
Ye Mo smiled and said.
Everyone couldn't help but rejoice, if they could find a way to deal with the Rakshasa pirates and the Kraken Shark, it would be greatly beneficial to the development of Ye Zhen.
Three days later.
Ye Mo took Ah Shui and went to Wang's Immortal Town, which was hundreds of miles away.
After all, the city lord who was also from Qingyun Immortal Academy, plus the city lord Wang had specially sent his men to take over his fleet before, and he also told himself about the situation in the Blood Sea War Zone, and he also took good care of Ye Zhen.
Ye Mo was quite grateful in his heart, and specially brought some high-grade spiritual tea from Lu Tong to visit.
Wang's Immortal Town is not big, it should be regarded as one of the many small immortal towns, but it has also been operating in the Blood Sea Theater for decades, and the defense facilities of the entire Immortal Town are well built.
Towering spell towers and tall walls made of solid fourth-order rocks enveloped all the immortal towns within a dozen miles.
There are also some fully armored immortal guards, standing on the edge of the city wall one by one, mighty and extraordinary.
Ye Mo entered Wang's Immortal Town, the streets in the city were extremely wide, with shops dotted around, and there was an endless stream of monks and business monks, a vibrant scene.
"It seems that this Wang City Lord is also a person who is good at management, and this Wang Clan's Immortal Town is well organized. ”
Ye Mo said with emotion.
Ah Shui followed aside, chuckling and chuckling: "Master, the City Lord Wang has been rooted here for decades, and it is not surprising that he can have today's achievements. It took the master a year to upgrade from Immortal Village to Immortal Town, and this strength is admirable. After a few years, the master will definitely surpass him. ”
"You little girl, how can you boast of your master like this. ”
Ye Mo glanced at Ah Shui and said with a smile.
After saying that, he walked straight towards the City Lord's Mansion.
A Shui suddenly showed a hint of blush on his delicate face, kicked his feet on the spot twice, and chased after Ye Mo.
Wang's City Lord's Mansion is a lively scene. There were many dignitaries today, all of whom were city lord-level monks in the thousands of miles of sea around the Blood Sea War Zone, and the City Lord's Mansion dispatched almost all the manpower to greet them.
When he arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, Ye Mo signed up for his own number.
"Ye Immortal Town, Ye City Lord has arrived"
The gatekeeper hurriedly shouted.
In an instant, in the banquet hall of the City Lord's Mansion, all the City Lords looked at the door.
Ye Mo came late, and all the city lords had arrived and were ready to start the feast.
Ye Mo was originally a casual person, and he only brought Ah Shui a guard, which surprised these city lords of Immortal Town. Most of the other townsowners were accompanied by numerous escorts.
"Lord of the Leaf City"
On the main seat of the banquet in the hall of the City Lord's Mansion, a burly middle-aged monk immediately stood up, his face was kind, and his eyes were full of light, and at a glance, he knew that Lu Dao was a strong foundation building period monk.
"Ha Luha, City Lord Ye is here. I, Wang Yi, the city lord of Wang's Immortal Town, and the city lords of the other towns have all arrived, so I'm waiting for you alone. ”
The city lord of the king, Ha Lu, greeted him with a smile.
"In Xia Ye Mo, I have seen the Wang City Lord and the City Lords"
Ye Mo hurriedly apologized and said, "There is a little delay in Xiancheng, so you city lords have been waiting for a long time, please Haihan."
"Good talk, good talk, please take a seat"
"It doesn't matter"
After all the city lords who were invited this time were seated, the banquet officially began.
After the city lord Wang sat down, he introduced the rest of the city lords to Ye Mo.
They are Chen Fang of Chen's Immortal Town, Luo Kui of Luo's Immortal Town, Liao Yuan of Liao's Immortal Town, Lin Dong of Lin Immortal Town, Mingfeng of Ming's Immortal Town, Tong Yuan of Tong Immortal Town, and Zhuge Tian of Zhuge Immortal Town.
These immortal towns are relatively close to the Wang family's immortal towns, so they were invited to participate in this small gathering of the town owners. Xianzhen, which was too far away, was not invited.
Ye Mo is a new town lord, and attending this kind of banquet can be regarded as a familiar face in front of all the city lords.
When the city lords got together, they naturally talked about some of the situation in the Blood Sea Theater.
Ye Mo didn't say much, just listened to them talk. Compared to the few townspeople present, he was just a newcomer, and he didn't know much about the situation here.
In the conversations of these city lords, Ye Mo benefited a lot.
The situation in the entire Blood Sea Theater is very complicated, there are hundreds of immortal towns in the vast sea area of 100,000 li, the monks are innumerable, and the relationship between the major immortal towns is also very complicated.
Some old fairy towns have taken root here for hundreds of years, with profound heritage and huge power.
This kind of advantage accumulated over the years is not something that can be easily shaken by the emerging potential.
However, there is no such overlord, which also gives many Xiaoxian towns room to survive.
Occasionally, some Great Immortal Towns would join forces to snatch some important spirit stone veins, as well as other islands of important supplies.
Overall, the complexity here is not much lower than that of Aolailing Island.
The only difference is that the large immortal towns here will not want to dominate the entire Blood Sea War Zone like the Lou Alliance of the Ao Lai Islands. Maybe it's too difficult.
Ye Mo pondered for a moment, and asked the Wang City Lord: "Wang City Lord, the Immortal Town in the Blood Sea War Zone is so powerful, then don't our small towns have to be attached to the other Great Immortal Towns?"
City Lord Wang was slightly stunned, shook his head and said, "City Lord Ye, the struggle of Great Immortal Town will not have too many conflicts of interest with us Little Immortal Town, so you must not get involved in it, just watch from the sidelines." Otherwise, it's easy to damage your own foundations. ”
Ye Mo nodded secretly, and wrote it down.
"I still have a doubt, I don't know whether to ask or not"
Ye Mo asked again.
"City Lord Ye, all of you here are from the Immortal City Alliance, and they should help each other, if there is anything you want to ask, you can just say hello. You've just come to the Blood Sea Theater, and if you need help, don't hesitate to say it. ”
The city lord smiled and said briskly.
"Not bad"
The city lords also stopped talking, and they all smiled and nodded yes.
"I first came to the Blood Sea Theater and was attacked by Rakshasa pirates and lost several ships. In the last few days, that group of pirates has besieged our immortal town again, threatening to pay us a monthly protection fee of 5,000 spirit stones.
Naturally, I didn't want to pay for this spirit stone, so I took my monks to attack. But those pirates were cunning, and they escaped into the sea with the help of kraken sharks, and I was helpless. I don't know if there is any good way to deal with these Rakshasa pirates, city lords?"
Ye Mo couldn't help but glance at the Wang City Lord gratefully.
All the city lords present heard that Ye Mo was facing the Rakshasa pirates, including the Wang City Lord, their expressions changed.
"You got into a fight with a Rakshasa pirate?"
"City Lord Ye, the Rakshasa pirates are huge, even if you catch them and kill them, it won't help. There were as many as 300 pirates in the foundation building period under the Rakshasa King. There are many other minions, and they can't be killed. You might as well pay the protection fee and change to a clean body. ”
City Lord Chen hurriedly said.
"What City Lord Chen said makes sense, I think when we came here, we also thought about confronting the Rakshasa pirates. However, those pirates were able to use the Kraken Shark to enter the bottom of the sea, and they couldn't chase it down at all. ”
"The only way to deal with them is for you to train a large number of Kraken Sharks, but the financial resources required to raise hundreds of third-order Kraken Sharks are too great to be wasted at all, and it is not cost-effective. ”
"We can only hand over spirit stones to them on a monthly basis, and there is no other way. ”
The rest of the city lords also said helplessly.
Ye Mo was still unwilling, and said strangely: "It is definitely not feasible for one immortal town to raise hundreds of Kraken sharks, but we can join forces to form a group of Kraken Shark cavalry together." In this way, you can also fight against this group of Rakshasa pirates. ”
"Hehe, City Lord Ye. In the early days, we had to invest hundreds of thousands of spirit stones, and then we spent tens of thousands of spirit stones every month to raise a large group of kraken sharks and fight bloody battles with Rakshasa pirates, and this process must have suffered heavy losses and huge costs. In contrast, it is cost-effective not to spend thousands of spirit stones to pay protection fees. ”
"We don't plan to fight other strong towns, and it's a waste to raise so many Siren sharks. ”
"Brother Ye, everyone has considered your idea, but in terms of cost, it's not a good idea."
When the city lords heard this, they looked at each other, but they shook their heads and sighed.
Ye Mo saw that the city lords were not interested, and he immediately felt a wave of frustration.
The banquet couldn't help but fall silent.
Including the Wang City Lord, they didn't know how to tell Ye Mo. Although it was humiliating to pay protection money to the pirates, they would rather lose face than spend huge financial resources to assemble this useless Kraken Shark Cavalry.
Ye Mo also calmed down.
All the city lords here are only the city lords of Xiaoxian Town, and their strength is very average. Whether it is manpower or financial resources, it is not enough to support them to raise a group of Kraken sharks for a long time to compete with the Rakshasa pirates. There is no ambition to participate in the battle for hegemony in the Blood Sea Theater or anything.
All the city lords didn't have this mind, and the Ye Clan's Immortal Town couldn't support such a huge sea horse.
Thinking of this, Ye Mo sighed helplessly in his heart.
Next, Ye Mo didn't speak again, and the other city lords didn't talk to him again, thinking that they were afraid that he would mention the plan to raise the Kraken Shark again, so they deliberately avoided the past.
"Ha Luha, forget it, don't talk about these disappointing things"
In order to avoid an embarrassing scene, the city lord stood up and came forward again to relieve the siege.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is rare for everyone to come here today, and Wang is very grateful to everyone for giving me this face. According to the custom of the city lord's gathering, we might as well hold a small spiritual trade fair here, where everyone can take out their spiritual objects and exchange them with each other."
The City Lord said with a smile.
As he spoke, he took out several spiritual objects from his bosom.
"Everyone take it out and see what treasures they have"
All the city lords laughed, the atmosphere became cheerful, and they all took out the treasures in their storage bags, and filled a table full of them.
Ye Mo was a little surprised, this was the first time he had participated in this kind of city lord gathering, and the trade fair for trading treasures with each other made his eyes shine even more.
