From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 282: General of the Elf Queen's Guard - Fiona
In the team led by Zhuo Hongjun, there are several comrades who were once led by Lu Heng.

When I walked in just now, these people waved and greeted me.

In this Abyss Battlefield Recruitment event, they were uniformly deployed by their superiors and transferred to Zhuo Hongjun's command.

Coming from a disciplined force, obeying orders is my duty.

So they need to obey all of Zhuo Hongjun's orders, even if it means filling the muzzle of a gun.

Tao Yalun is one of them, and he gets along well with them.

He was the last comrade who gave up the [Flame Messenger] essence and took the [Flame Amplifier] crystal core.

Half a year ago, fog appeared in the Ryugawa area and the nuclear power plant encountered a fog crisis.

That was the first time that fog appeared in the human world, and the Daxia government had no experience in dealing with it, so Lu Heng accepted the mission sent by the military and entered the Liuchuan fog with Jian Qing, Chen Zihang, Tao Yalun and others.

The goal of that mission was to clear the fog and prevent the Iwakawa Nuclear Power Plant from being shrouded in fog.

The nuclear power plant technology currently used by humans is still nuclear fission. Once the news that a nuclear power plant is covered by fog causes a nuclear leak, it will cause endless harm.

Therefore, that mission was a saturation rescue.

Lu Heng and Jian Qing each led a team into the Liuchuan Mist.

At that time, in addition to Su Muyu and Lin Zeyu, Lu Heng's team also included Chen Zihang and Tao Yalun, a total of ten people.

Jian Qing led another ten people. After the two teams entered the fog, they separated to search for the abyss rift.

In that mission, Tao Yalun, a fire-type mutant, played a very important role.

Especially when the fungal mat appears, these microorganisms from the abyss will cover the ground and eat up all organic matter.

This kind of fungal blanket is only afraid of fire. It will quickly disperse if it is burned by fire.

At that time, Tao Yalun led the way for the team, spraying fire all the way.

Finally, the two teams met at the sandstone hills, defeated the Balrog, and resolved the fog crisis.

When the spoils were distributed after the war, the Fire Demon dropped a lot of materials and crystal cores.

The most valuable items among them are the [Flamebringer] source material and the black crystal forging stone.

There are also fire-type psychics in Jian Qing's team, so she wants to help the fire psychics in her team to obtain the [Flame Messenger] essence.

Both teams have fire-powered users, and the one on Lu Heng's team is Tao Yalun.

In other words, from the demand perspective, these two fire ability users need this source material more and should be allocated priority.

As the captain of the second team, Jian Qing naturally had to fight for this source of energy for her comrades.

Lu Heng originally wanted to help Tao Yalun fight for it. After all, as the captain of the first team, if he doesn’t fight for his teammates, is he worthy of this position?

The problem is that there is only one copy of the [Flamebringer] essence, and it can only be given to one person.

In the end, Tao Yalun took the initiative to give up the source material and took another skill crystal core [Flame Amplification].

Lu Heng took the black crystal forging stone and used it to forge the Aurora Blade.

The mission was carried out smoothly, and Lu Heng had a good impression of his teammates who had fought side by side with him.

However, they are part of a troop sequence and rarely contact each other after the mission is completed.

In addition to Tao Yalun, Wu Weibing, the perceiver from Chen Zihang's team, is also here.

These are the people who have solved the crisis of the sulfur river fog together. Since we have the ability to bring them into the Elf King's City, we must bring them in.

Even if this would cause Zhuo Hongjun to follow them into the city, he had to help them.

Lu Heng thought it over quickly, stood up, waved his hand and said, "There are only ten days left, I will take you into the inner city first. Grab your things and follow me."

"Lu Heng, do you really have a way to take us into the inner city? We have been waiting here for many days for the bounty, but we still can't find a way to enter the city." When Tao Yalun heard that they could enter the city, his eyes suddenly lit up, and from what Lu Heng said, it seemed that this matter was very simple.

However, they had been in the outer city for more than ten days and had not found a way to enter the inner city.

"Let's go." Lu Heng waved his hand and walked out of the hotel.

The hotel accommodation in the outer city is much cheaper than that in the inner city, and this group of soldiers only needs one room. They are all squeezed into one room and feel that the room is too spacious.

After all, for these supernatural warriors who came from the military, camping in the wild at night is the norm, and being able to stay in a hotel is already very good.

Tao Yalun, Wu Weibing and others quickly packed up their things and followed Lu Heng out in an orderly manner.

After Zhuo Hongjun walked out of the room, he went into another room, probably to pack his things. After packing, he hurriedly followed me.

Lu Heng brought them to the gate of the Elf King's City. When passing by the bulletin board, he first took a look at the bounty on it to see if there was any important information.

Zhuo Hongjun thought about it and said, "We need to leave someone outside the city to pass on the message. Tao Yalun, you stay outside the city. I will send someone out to contact you every morning."

"I... yes!" Tao Yalun was a little reluctant in his heart, but he was a soldier in the army. After hearing the order, he immediately stood at attention and received it.

Seeing this, Lu Heng frowned.

To be honest, the main reason why I was willing to bring them into the city was because of Chen Zihang, Tao Yalun and Wu Weibing, three comrades who had fought side by side with me.

Zhuo Hongjun was about to throw Tao Yalun out with just a few words, which made Lu Heng very unhappy.

Moreover, among the spoils of defeating the Fire Demon, the black crystal forging stone was very valuable. At that time, Lu Heng wanted to make up the difference and share it with Chen Zihang, Tao Yalun and others.

But they didn't want it and readily agreed to Lu Heng's distribution plan.

In other words, Lu Heng owed Tao Yalun a favor for the distribution of the spoils.

Seeing that Zhuo Hongjun was trying to control Tao Yalun, Lu Heng's face darkened and he shouted the command: "Deputy Captain Zhuo Hongjun!"

Hearing these words, Zhuo Hongjun was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and stood at attention and agreed: "Here!"

"The task of delivering the message is very important. You will be responsible for it personally. Everyone else, follow me into the city." After Lu Heng finished speaking, he walked towards the city gate.

Zhuo Hongjun's face turned very ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "I am the commander of this mission."

Lu Heng stood still and tilted his head, looking at him out of the corner of his eye, and asked, "You can also disobey orders, as long as you are prepared to go back and write an apology."

Zhuo Hongjun's expression became even uglier.

His current position is the deputy leader of the Longwei Sequence.

In the Longwei Sequence, Lu Heng's identity is the honorary leader. Although he usually doesn't take care of things, his rank is still there.

In the military hierarchy, if everyone disobeys orders from their superiors, there will be no discipline.

Therefore, in terms of rank, he had to obey Lu Heng's orders.

Lu Heng withdrew his gaze and walked towards the city gate.

Everyone present stood there in a daze for two seconds, not knowing who to listen to.

Chen Zihang was from a national defense university, so he was not as strict as others in observing discipline. He hurried to catch up, then turned around and waved: "Hurry up and catch up."

The others hurried to catch up, but none of them dared to look back at Zhuo Hongjun.

Zhuo Hongjun clenched his fists, his face full of anger, and gritted his teeth and said, "Lu Heng, I am the commander of the Abyss Battlefield appointed by my superiors. You have exceeded my authority and seized my command. When I return, I will report your violation truthfully."

Lu Heng originally didn't want to target him. If he behaved himself and didn't cause any trouble, he was even prepared to take him into the city.

But this guy always seems to have a way of screwing things up.

Lu Heng didn't have time to argue with him. He walked to the city gate, showed the magic tower badge, and led the team into the inner city.

After entering the city, they were arranged to help in the industrial area.

The original intention was to allow them to solve their food and accommodation problems by working and getting paid.

Unexpectedly, this group of soldiers stayed directly in the workshop and even saved on accommodation fees.

……

As Lu Heng's reputation among the elves grew, the elves' vigilance against humans gradually decreased.

The difficulty of entering the inner city naturally became lower and lower, and other people with special abilities began to gain the qualifications to enter the inner city through rewards and missions.

This evening.

A team of elven cavalry rushed back from outside the city, led by a heroic female elven warrior riding an armored unicorn.

This female elven warrior was wearing armor, had a slender figure and was powerful. She was none other than Fiona, the general of the Elf Queen's Guard.

The unicorn ran to the city gate and stopped. Immediately, a human mutant caught up from behind, knelt on one knee respectfully beside the unicorn, and folded his hands with his palms facing up and raised above his head.

Fiona raised her leg, stepped on the psychic's palm with her iron boots, got off the unicorn, and then threw the unicorn's reins to the psychic.

This human mutant was none other than Black Field. He had met this general of the Elf Queen's Guard in the wild ten days ago, and had followed him in several hunts for the Abyss Summoners, making him Fiona's vanguard.

With the help of his clone, Ma Qianzu, Blake Field successfully entered the inner city.

In fact, the armored unicorn does not need a special trainer to take care of it.

So after he led the unicorn to the stable, he immediately ran back to Fiona, bowed and followed her, waiting for instructions.

Among the entire elves, this general of the Elf Queen's Guard is one of Queen Orianna's most trusted people.

As long as you have a good relationship with Fiona, this Abyss Battlefield mission will go very smoothly.

As he followed Fiona through the commercial district, he unexpectedly spotted two people strolling around the block, looking like they were out sightseeing and window shopping.

Lu Heng’s quenching master level has reached the master level. There is not much work in the quenching workshop, so he can take a day off.

I have been working in the quenching workshop these days and have earned a lot of money. So, before the crisis comes, I will go shopping in the commercial district of the Elf King City with Su Muyu to see if I can buy some useful weapons and equipment.

Elf civilization has a long tradition in many fields such as quenching, forging, inscription, and sewing.

This is quite different from human civilization.

Human beings also have thousands of years of civilization heritage, but the laws of the world are different.

Human beings are a technological civilization.

On the technological side, the technological products of human civilization definitely have more advantages.

On the magic side, the elven civilization is superior.

Su Muyu took out a B-level inscription gem with +4 spiritual power to pay for accommodation. The reason why he could not stay in the Elf King City Hotel for a few days was mainly because there was a huge difference in the price of the same item between the two civilizations.

In the human world, there are only a handful of high-level inscription masters at this stage. The B-level inscription gems they produce are naturally very rare, and each one is priced at a sky-high price.

It is different in the elven civilization, where the inscriptions have been passed down for thousands of years.

With such a long history, the number of inscription gems produced is countless. Even B-level inscription gems are not considered rare treasures, so their purchasing power is naturally not as high as that on Blue Star.

The two walked around the commercial district for a while and entered a leather shop.

The clerk of the leather shop introduced: "We sell leather products here. The best product today is this pair of Kodo leather boots. The soles and uppers are made of double layers of Kodo hide. Even in the most intense battle, they will not be damaged."

When Lu Heng heard the clerk's introduction, he immediately became interested.

Since my running speed exceeded the speed of sound, my shoes have become really useless.

Even if you cover your feet with source energy while running, you cannot prevent your shoes from being scrapped.

Therefore, Lu Heng wanted to find a pair of boots a long time ago to reduce the trouble of changing shoes every day.

Su Muyu naturally knew about this. She reached out and picked up the pair of kodo leather boots, squatted down and put them at Lu Heng's feet, and said, "Try it on."

Lu Heng really wanted a pair of boots, so he didn't hesitate and put his feet into the kodo leather boots, and then something magical happened.

This pair of kodo leather boots seemed to contain some kind of magic. After putting the feet in, the boots began to tighten and fit the feet perfectly.

It won't leave any extra space, nor will it be too tight.

Lu Heng could hardly find any flaws.

Of course, for a pair of kodo leather boots like this, comfort is important, but the attributes are more important.

[Kodo Leather Boots]

[Item Level: B]

[Specifications: Shoe length 28 cm, tube height 32 cm, weight 1282 grams]

[Attribute: Foot Armor +120]

[Special effect: Movement speed +10%]

[Evaluation: This pair of heavy leather boots is carefully sewn from the tough outer skin of kodo beasts. The seams are invisible on the surface, showing the craftsman's exquisite craftsmanship. The soles of the boots are inlaid with wear-resistant hoof iron plates, which not only enhance the grip, but also make every step as steady as a mountain. Wearing it, it seems that you can feel the indomitable spirit of kodo beasts, bringing you endless courage and protection. ]

The properties are very good and it also increases movement speed.

Although the increased speed value is not high, it can amplify the skill acceleration, and the actual use effect will be better than expected.

"How does it feel?" Su Muyu squatted on the ground and pried open the seams of the leather boots with his hands to see if the quality was good.

After trying it, she found the move a bit redundant.

There is no quality issue with Class B equipment.

If there is a quality problem, then the leather boots will not be B grade, and even [Damaged] will be displayed on the attribute panel.

"It's okay. They tighten automatically when you put them on and fit your feet surprisingly well." Lu Heng was actually very satisfied with the leather boots, but he was worried about the price.

The clerk explained, "This pair of leather boots is the work of a senior leather craftsman. They are made of the finest kodo hides and use the special sewing techniques of our elves. There is no chance that they will not fit. Unless you are a giant, your feet really cannot fit in."

Su Muyu also thought it was great and asked, "How much does this cost?"

"2500 crystal coins." The clerk quoted the price.

When Lu Heng heard the price, he felt it was a bit scary.

If we follow the wages of the elven tempering masters in the quenching workshop, the reward for one day's work is 100 crystal coins, which means that this pair of kodo leather boots will cost the elven tempering masters nearly a month's salary.

Moreover, this cannot be compared with a human's monthly salary.

Because the elven civilization is very wealthy and this race leads a leisurely life, the pay for work is very high.

The accommodation price of a hotel in the commercial district of Kolos City is exactly 100 crystal coins per night.

In other words, a day's work in the quenching workshop is enough to afford a night's stay in a hotel in the commercial district.

Of course, this is because the Elf King City Commercial District is the most prosperous commercial center in the world, so it is normal for hotel prices to be high.

If you stay in the outer city, the price will be much lower, even only one-tenth of the price in the inner city commercial district.

When Lu Heng was in the quenching workshop, his work efficiency was very high, and he could even do the work of three people alone.

Therefore, during the five days in the quenching workshop, I earned 1500 crystal coins, which was not enough to buy this pair of kodo leather boots.

After being in the Elf King City for so many days, Su Muyu already knew that there was no such thing as bargaining among the elves.

For the elves, bargaining is not an elegant thing to do.

So, after she asked the price, she took out her purse and started counting the money.

"Are you really going to buy it?" Lu Heng leaned close to her ear and asked.

These kodo leather boots are really good, but they are a bit expensive.

Lu Heng only earned 1500 crystal coins, which was not enough to buy this pair of leather boots.

Su Muyu didn't hesitate, and counted out 2500 crystal coins, all of which were 100-denomination coins, a total of 25 coins, and put them on the counter and said, "We bought them, can we just wear them and take them away? Do we need to write a receipt or something?"

"No need, the payment is settled. Welcome to come again next time." The elf clerk collected the crystal coins and politely saw the customer off.

Su Muyu also earned a small sum of money working in the workshop these days, which was enough to buy this pair of leather boots.

However, after the purchase, there were only a few crystal coins left.

Money is meant to be spent, and this pair of leather boots was really good, so she bought it without much hesitation.

"Okay, let's go. Do you want to continue shopping?" Su Muyu pulled Lu Heng's hand and walked out happily.

As soon as I went out, I ran into Fiona and her vanguard Blake Fielder.

Lu Heng and the others didn't know Fiona, but when they saw the armor she was wearing and her powerful aura, they knew at a glance that she was of high status.

When she saw Blake Fielder behind her, she was a little surprised.

Because Blake Fielder followed Fiona respectfully, just like a follower.

When Black Field saw Lu Heng and the other man happily shopping in the commercial street, his eyes darkened and he said to Fiona, "General, if we allow races other than the elves to wander around the royal city, I'm worried that it will cause unnecessary chaos."

As the general of the Elven Queen's Guard, Fiona's first duty is to protect the safety of the Queen and the city of Kolos.

After hearing what Black Field said, she also became alert and signaled her guards to come forward and inquire.

An elf guard stepped forward and began to interrogate Lu Heng and the other man: "Who are you? Why are you walking around the city at will?"

Lu Heng glanced at Fiona and replied with a smile: "We are tempering masters, General Fiona, the spear you use, the second-level spirit-infused third-level armor-piercing spear was made by me."

Fiona was very satisfied with the recently upgraded Level 3 Spirit Infusion special effects. When she heard Lu Heng's words, she couldn't help but smile in surprise: "So you are a tempering master from the alliance. On behalf of the Elf Queen's Guard, I welcome you."
