Chapter 364 Bottleneck, a great gift from the Nile Kingdom

Shen Guanye's goal is to bring Nanyang Continent into Tianxia's territory as much as possible. Otherwise, it will be difficult to expand the territory after the future world structure is determined.

This is not only a century-old plan, but also something that needs to be raced against time.

If we don't take advantage of the current situation of frequent wars, displaced people, and precarious conditions to move people on a large scale, it will be difficult to move people on a large scale when the world is peaceful in the future.

Who would leave their homeland unless absolutely necessary?

Unless you are going to a prosperous place.

But is Nanyang Continent a prosperous place?

Therefore, Shen Guanye must seize this time window.

Now, there are already many mountain gods and water gods near Yuhe City and other towns. If another group of Four Seasons Gods can be gathered, the environment within a radius of 10,000 square kilometers will be improved, and the land reclamation and city building operations can be carried out more smoothly. .

There will also be arrangements for the newly occupied territory, including the Four Seasons God, the Solar Terms God, the Mountain God, the Water God, and even the Yuan Chen God, the Day Travel God, and the Night Travel God.

One of the reasons why he was able to occupy these territories so smoothly was that he was popular and had a good reputation, but there was another reason, and that was the "benefits" brought by these gods and spirits.

Who doesn’t want to have their own zodiac guardian angel? Who doesn’t want to be blessed by the mountain gods and water gods? Who doesn’t want to have a house god and five immortals at home to ensure safety?

This attraction is too great for Tianxia people.

However, to Shen Guanye, this was just a small shortcoming, not a big deal.

The real big thing is that after he was promoted to level 12, he finally encountered a "bottleneck".

All along, his promotion conditions have only been two, merit and two non-god lairs. As long as these two conditions are met, he can be promoted without any training.

This resulted in his astonishing promotion speed.

But now, this astonishing pace of promotion is finally slowing down.

Because the subsequent promotion has a new requirement - a requirement on the territory.

The moment he was promoted to level 12, the Kingdom of God had actually sent him a message.

If he wants to advance to the 13th level, in addition to gaining enough merit and owning two non-god lairs, he must also own half of Tianxia - whether it is captured by attack, accepted as a subordinate, or obtained through exchange of benefits. Come.

In short, it is necessary to have less than half of Tianxia's territory.

This definitely didn't happen overnight. It would take him a long time to completely defeat the warlords and digest King Yan Zhao's sphere of influence, let alone unify half of Tianxia.

By then, he would probably have taken control of Beichen City, taken charge of the central government, and would be Tianxia's nominal head of state.

Sure enough, the Gods of Attendance were stuck for a long time at level 12, and I, the Lord of God, also had to be stuck for a long time.

Shen Guanye thought to himself.

But he didn't feel anxious because of this. Although the speed of his strength promotion had slowed down, for now, his strength was enough to be a deterrent. Counting Chihun, he already had five major national-level combat powers.

In addition, Senior Xiao Qingyun can rush over to help him at any time. Even if the descended heavenly beings want to kill him, the possibility of success is slim, unless several great descending heavenly beings come together.

But this possibility is also slim.

Besides, he still has an imperial title.

Judging from past experience, the new Samurai God is either 13th or 12th level. As long as it is sealed, it will have immediate combat power, at least equivalent to several 14th level heroic spirits.

……

Destroy the warlord and the palace.

Ever since the shocking battle a few days ago, the entire palace has been shrouded in a haze of terror.

King Yan Zhao, who suffered a major setback, secretly executed many servants. The servants in the entire palace were in trembling fear, fearing that they might accidentally offend King Yan Zhao and lose their lives for no reason.

In the past, serving King Yan Zhao was not a good job, because King Yan Zhao was never a generous master.

Not to mention now, this is a fatal job.

Every servant tried his best to avoid serving King Yan Zhao. Once he was selected, it would be like mourning his heir. Even the trusted servants who used to have some dignity in front of King Yan Zhao had to be careful, lest they offend King Yan Zhao.

There was a loud "bang" sound.

The fright made all the servants inside and outside the yard tremble, and then there was the sound of clattering porcelain and glassware falling to the ground. The successive breaking sounds were like hitting everyone's hearts, making the servants tremble constantly, shrinking their heads and trying their best. Reduce your presence.

In the study, King Yan Zhao's eyes widened, he was panting like an ox, and he was full of anger.

"What do you mean? You talk about forming an alliance in the first place, but then you tear up the contract in the back? Are family and national affairs such a child's play?"

King Yan Zhao was extremely angry, with a hint of fear in his anger.

He was originally extremely afraid of Shen Guanye, otherwise he would not have repeatedly attacked Shen Guanye. However, due to Shen Guanye's exaggerated achievements some time ago, he was no longer afraid of Shen Guanye, but was afraid of him! It's panic!

Two days ago, he even dreamed that Shen Guanye killed him without hesitation, no matter how much he struggled and begged for mercy, it was in vain.

Now his only hope is the Iris Kingdom. Only the alliance with the Iris Kingdom can protect him!

Why did he dare to risk the disapproval of the world and collude with the Iris Kingdom to attack Shen Guanye, Tianxia's rising star?

First, because the plan has a very high success rate. If you take a chance, you can guarantee hundreds of years of wealth and become the emperor of a medium-sized country. So why not do it?

Tianxia is so vast that even if it only occupies the southwest, it is enough to become a medium-sized power.

As for whether it is worthwhile to do so?

How many small countries in history were founded only a dozen years or even perished within a few years? Do you think it’s worth it?

The second reason is that even if the plan fails, there is still the Iris Kingdom as a guarantee, ensuring an invincible position.

Even more, if he can make Shen Guanye his puppet, then he can seize Shen Guanye's luck and opportunities, and maybe he can get rid of the control of Iris Kingdom, unify Tianxia, ​​and have a taste of it. Taste the taste of a unified emperor...

Who could have imagined that not only did the operation fail, but the Iris Kingdom also defaulted on his debt and completely abandoned him!

At this moment, King Yan Zhao even regretted provoking Shen Guanye. If...if he had not taken the initiative to provoke Shen Guanye in the first place, would the situation not be so bad? Could he have saved his life in the end?

The subordinates looked at King Yan Zhao and explained the reason tactfully.

"Your Majesty, it is said that another faction in Iris has come to power. This faction's main idea is to manage the Black Witch Continent and not focus on Tianxia and Nanyang Continent, so..."

"Enough!" King Yan Zhao was furious and incompetent. His eyes fell on the broken antique porcelain and exquisite glass on the ground, and he became even more angry.

"Why haven't you come in to clean it up yet? If you don't have anything you can see, what use do you have? I've taken care of everything!"

There was a sound of kneeling and begging for mercy outside.

"My lord, spare my life!"

Someone wanted to rush in and beg for mercy, but was restrained by the guards who appeared in lightning, sealed their mouths to prevent them from making a sound, and was dragged away like a dead dog.

……

Above the vast sea, two sphinxes are flying together. On the back of one of the sphinxes is Shen Guanye's old acquaintance, the "Messenger of the Underworld" Senid!

Sitting on the back of the other sphinx is the Ancient Sword Master.

Sened came here at the request of Menis. On the one hand, he expressed condolences for Shen Guanye's experience some time ago, and congratulated him on his soaring strength and brilliant record. Second, he wanted to ask Shen Guanye for help.

They knew that Shen Guanye had obtained many corpses of 13th and 14th-level heroic spirits in this battle, and the Nile Kingdom wanted to obtain the corpses of these heroic spirits, especially those of 14th-level heroic spirits.

Compared with Tianxia, ​​the fate of Nile Kingdom is more miserable.

The Nile Kingdom was not as powerful as Tianxia, ​​and it was closer to the great powers, so it was invaded much earlier than Tianxia. Over the years, it is unknown how much territory and resources were plundered by the great powers.

This resulted in the scarcity of the Nile Kingdom's artifacts, because a large number of artifacts were plundered by the great powers - among the stars, Iris, High Castle and even the 14th-level heroic spirits recruited by the White Maple Kingdom over the past few hundred years, there are A large part comes from the "contribution" of the Nile Kingdom.

As a result, now Menis wants to recruit more pyramid spirits, but it is difficult for them to do it without rice.

Menis has more than one Pyramid Spirit Nest, and can recruit several Pyramid Spirits every year. So far, all the Pyramid Spirits bred in the Pyramid Spirit Nest have been recruited, and no quota has been wasted.

But the "inventory" currently in the hands of the Nile Kingdom's senior leaders cannot last for a few years. If more recruitment materials are not accumulated in a few years, they will only be able to sigh with excitement as they look at the new heroic spirits bred from the pyramid spiritual nest.

The Pyramid Spirit is crucial to the resistance movement of the Nile Kingdom. For the people of the Nile Kingdom, the Pyramid Spirit is not only a 14th-level heroic spirit that belongs to their own country and civilization, it is also the reincarnation place of the Pharaoh-type heroic spirits!

As long as there are enough Pyramid Spirits, the pharaoh-type heroic spirits in the Nile Kingdom army can circulate and never dry up. It can be said that the effect that a pyramid spirit can exert far exceeds the level of a 14th-level heroic spirit. .

Ideally, even Admiral Tiance cannot compare to Pyramid Spirit.

Therefore, it is crucial for the Nile Kingdom to accumulate enough recruitment materials, and the corpses of 14th-level heroic spirits can be used to recruit 14th-level heroic spirits, although this is a wasteful approach.

Recruiting a 14th-level heroic spirit requires a country-governing artifact, and the corpse of a 14th-level heroic spirit is not enough to recruit a 14th-level heroic spirit.

But in any case, for the Nile Kingdom, this can also solve an urgent need.

In order to achieve this goal, Menes, or the Nile Kingdom, showed full attention and respect for Shen Guanye, an ally.

Not only did Sened, an acquaintance of his, be sent to express condolences immediately, he also brought a package including a black dragon, a Behemoth, a burial yellow saloon, two sphinxes, two totem prophets, and two totem prophets. A super gift including Chimera, eight Cyclops, two Medusas, and eight manticores.

Among them, the Black Dragon, the Behemoth, the Sphinx, the Totem Prophet, and the Chimera need no introduction as they have all appeared before.

The remaining two new faces, Burial Huang Shalom and Cyclops, are not simple either.

The Cyclops is a 12th-level orc-type heroic spirit. He is more than ten meters tall, has rough skin and thick flesh, and is extremely powerful. He also has a huge one-eyed eye from which he can emit shockingly lethal rays. Even in the face of a giant dragon, he dares to fight. .

The Yellow Burial Salon is even more remarkable.

This is the 13th-level heroic spirit of the Pharaoh family. It is also a type of giant dragon. It looks more like a variant of the giant dragon. Its whole body seems to be made of yellow sand. It can control yellow sand and has the power of death and strength. Quite outstanding.

Especially in the desert environment, there is no level 13 heroic spirit that is the opponent of the Yellow Burial Salon. It is as strong as the Dragon Knight. In the desert environment, facing the Yellow Burial Salon, it is estimated that it can only protect itself.

In the desert, the Yellow Burial Salon is a super-powerful 14th-level heroic spirit that can compete with the 13th-level heroic spirit.

However, this is normal.

The unique series of heroic spirits of great civilizations are inherently stronger than the general series of heroic spirits. Tianxia civilization has given birth to three unique series. The heroic spirits of the celestial dynasty are so strong, and the heroic spirits of the mountains and seas are so broad!

There is only one pharaoh line in the Nile Kingdom, so it should be stronger.

It's just that the Nanyang Continent is a rainforest environment, which is not suitable for the performance of the Yellow Burial Salon.

But Menis's visit to Huang Shalom's funeral was not originally to serve as a fighting force. It was more like taking his country's precious "specialties" as a national gift to foreign guests.

The emotional and symbolic significance is greater than the combat significance.

In order to show their attention, the Nile Kingdom gave away some of all the Pharaoh-type heroic spirits except the Pyramid Spirit. Forget about those mid-to-low-level Pharaoh-type heroic spirits. Even if they were more in number, their combat power would not be strong.

But the Yellow Burial Salon and the Sphinx are not dispensable combat capabilities. One less person means that there is less "material" that can be continuously resurrected. Being able to spread some out shows that Shen Guanye is very important to Shen Guanye. Pay attention to.

Shen Guanye was so polite, so naturally Shen Guanye reciprocated the favor and directly sent Gu Jianlangjun to escort the corpses of the 13th and 14th level heroic spirits obtained some time ago to the Nile Kingdom.

The strength of Gujian Langjun is almost that of a national-level strongman, and he is enough to protect these "commodities".

On the way, Sened communicated with Gu Jianlangjun from time to time. The more he communicated, the more surprised he became.

He knew that Gu Jianlangjun was Shen Guanye's creation. In their Nile Kingdom, there were many apocalyptic professions that could create creatures, including even a top profession.

But even the "creatures" created by that top profession are not as smart and intelligent as Gu Jian Langjun, as if they are really a person.

Sened's communication with Gujian Langjun was like communicating with a living person. This person was also knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and even had strong curiosity and a desire to learn.

Along the way, by briefly asking for advice from him, Gu Jianlangjun has already mastered the Nile language and can carry out simple communication in Nile language.

Not many people can achieve this kind of language talent, let alone beings born in the past. Not even real humans can achieve it.

Sened's eyes were opened.
