I stole 999 abilities

Chapter 544 Going deep into the hinterland
Because the information needs to be handed over layer by layer, Yang Xi's report to Norton was a little late.

Moreover, he also stated in the information that it was the Stormlord's intention to inform Norton.

This is naturally for one more person to bear the anger of the Red Emperor.

To be honest, Norton was a little confused when he received this information.

The relationship between him and the Storm Lord is not harmonious, because of the relationship between his wife, Justice Panis, the two basically quarrel every time they meet.

It would be good if he didn't get in the way behind his back. He didn't quite believe that the Stormlord would specifically notify him after he discovered the Earth's Soul Spring?
Norton put the information on the table and rubbed the space between his brows wearily.

"Do you want to repair the relationship with me? Or do you have other plans?"

In the Ossian culture, it is not unethical to pursue a married woman.

Once the Stormlord raised a challenge, Norton, her husband, had to respond.

For example, take off the white gloves and throw them on his face.

It's just that the duel between them has been put on hold because of the strong opposition from Justice Panis and the high-level organizations of the Hundred Cities Federation.

But Venerable Storm also had to leave the core area of ​​the Hundred Cities Federation and come to the coastal areas to live in seclusion.

"That's all, after all, it's about the spiritual well, so it's worth the trip."

Norton didn't alarm anyone, and rushed to Guangming City alone.

He was one day behind the head of the mercenary union.

Yang Xi also left marks along the way in the same way as the Hundred Cities Federation, so as not to lose the strong man who broke out the mystery.

……

It has been three days since the four of Yang Xi went round and round on the sea.

With the speed of several of their fourth-order powerhouses, they should have found the location of the Earth Spirit Spring long ago.

But unexpectedly, the location of this earth spirit spring seems to be constantly changing.

Going east for a while, going south for a while, and once even near the island chain of the Chaos Sea.

Yang Xin planned to make a direct move at that time.

Fortunately, the soul spring here is very "interesting", and it seems to be molesting them, and it began to move to the southern continent again.

"Red Emperor, is this secret technique of yours fake? It was okay two days ago, and it kept pointing in one direction. Why is it changing now?"

Yang Xi complained a few words.

The Red Emperor is also a little strange, but although this kind of situation is rare, it is not unheard of.

"According to the recorded information, there are several planes where the earth's spiritual springs will indeed constantly shift their positions to prevent being discovered. Don't be impatient, but it's just a matter of spending a little more effort."

He was not in a hurry, because the color of the arrow on the head of the Lord of the Chaotic Sea was gradually getting darker, which meant that the distance between them and the spring of the Earth's mind was constantly decreasing.

There is nothing wrong with the strategy, just follow the schedule step by step.

On the contrary, Venerable Storm was happy with this. The longer the time dragged on, the more he recovered from his injuries, and the better it was for him.

For some reason, he had a premonition that some accidents would happen after he found the terrain spirit spring.

"I hope this is my delusion."

The Storm Lord murmured, rushed forward, and caught the Lord of the Chaos Sea.

Because the latter wanted to use the secret method, the three of them took turns leading him along the way.

Although the Lord of the Chaotic Sea didn't want to be lifted up in such a shameful manner, in order to save more energy, he recognized it with his eyes closed.

……

city ​​of bones.

There is more and more floating ash above the city, and just a casual touch on the ground can stick a hand full of white substances.

The expressions on the faces of the two warriors in big uniforms were almost numb.

As time went by, they basically guessed about [-]% to [-]% of what happened in the city of bones.

But they can only watch everything happen, and even have to stand here and become accomplices.

"This kind of thing, in the common saying of the aboriginal people, hurts the peace of heaven!"

As the Ossaids born on Azure Star, they have complicated feelings for the natives of this plane.

When they were children, they did not understand the division between races.

In my own castle, there will always be several human friends of the same age playing together.

It is a pity that as we grow older, the differences of race and class will shatter these fragile friendships cleanly.

But even so, this experience has left a seed called "empathy" in the hearts of these Osedians who were born on different planes.

There is still an essential difference between them and those pure colonists from the Ossian plane.

puff-

A filthy young girl fell to the ground. Her already emaciated body was overwhelmed by the long journey. If she was not supplemented with food and water, she would soon die.

Among the fellow human slaves, except for an old woman who knelt down to care about her, the others just avoided the fallen girl and continued to move forward numbly.

"Step aside."

The indifferent voice of the Ossaid soldiers sounded.

The old woman was startled, without the slightest thought of daring to resist, she stepped aside—it was her greatest courage to be able to stay still.

The Ossaid squatted down and checked the situation of the slave girl.

"Bring some water here."

He said to his companion.

Another Osaid shook his head helplessly, and threw his water bottle over.

"Why do you do this, sooner or later."

The squatting Ossaid soldier silently unscrewed the water bottle, and carefully moved it to the girl's side.

Moisture slowly infiltrated the girl's chapped lips, and she began to swallow instinctively.

The expressions of the Ossaid soldiers were still extremely indifferent.

"If I don't do something else, I'm going to go crazy."

He looked at the dark crowd and felt suffocated.

"You stay and take care of her, and go when she wakes up."

The Ossaid soldiers picked up the girl and placed her under the shed next to the sentry box.

The old woman looked at the Ossian soldier with some doubts. This was the most "kind" Ossian she had ever met. At least he didn't use a whip to wake up the unconscious girl.

"Why, don't you want to?"

Hearing the impatience in the other party's tone, the old woman hurriedly walked three steps in two, and stood quietly beside the girl.

In fact, she has no blood relationship with this girl, they just chatted a few words on the road.

However, she instinctively has a sense of repulsion towards the final destination, and it is good to be able to stay outside the city for a while now.

"You ah you."

Another Osidian patted his companion on the shoulder, and finally acquiesced in his decision.

Perhaps, we all want peace of mind.

……

The capital of Bernadotte.

The bone emperor waved away the singer, and only he and Landi were left in the huge palace.

"Third brother has been out for so long, and he hasn't even received a reply, and he doesn't know what he's doing."

There was no element of worry in Gu Emperor's tone, after all his younger brother's strength is not weak.

Landi smiled and said: "I just received information that the third brother has appeared in Guangming City. He really likes to play, but at this juncture, he still hasn't come back."

Gu Emperor waved his hand and said: "This kid doesn't know what he's working on, but we followed his plan and carried out things step by step, but the initiator of his plan was not there, it's really nerve-wracking! "

"Don't worry, big brother. Although I don't agree with the third brother's plan, since it has been implemented, we can only complete it. Otherwise, all the previous work will be in vain."

"Hey, in order to break through to the fifth level, I had to make such a bad plan. The gains and losses are hard to measure!"

It seems that the closer it is to break through to the fifth-order node, the bone emperor, a super powerhouse at the peak of the fourth-order, is more and more concerned about gains and losses.

Landi drank all the wine and comforted his eldest brother: "Breakthrough to the fifth level is a good thing after all, and the days of the three of us in the blue star plane will come to an end."

"Brother, you don't want this mentality. The hurdles from the fourth to the fifth level are something that most people will never encounter in their lifetime. Now that you have reached this point, you must go on without hesitation!"

Bone Emperor glanced at his younger brother with complicated eyes, he had strongly opposed Red Emperor's plan at the beginning.

But now that the deal is done, his second younger brother, who has always been sloppy, is more decisive than him.

"Yeah, it's me who is indecisive. Those who make big things don't care about small things!"

The bone emperor's eyes gradually became firmer, he forced himself to get rid of those unnecessary emotions, and devoted himself to the road of breaking through the fifth level.

"Let's go to the city of bones, and it's almost time to harvest."

Following the bone emperor's order, on the square in front of the palace, all the soldiers of the Bernadotte Empire let out a roar that shook the sky.

As if the entire sky was about to be shattered, they also knew that the bone emperor whom they were loyal to was about to become the first fifth-order powerhouse in this plane!
……

"The arrow turned again."

Yang Xi mentioned the Lord of Chaos Sea and stopped the two people in front of him.

At this moment, the arrow on the head of the Lord of Chaos Sea was already developing in the red direction, but it was deflected by nearly [-] degrees.

The Red Emperor and the Storm Venerable flew over, looking in the direction of the arrow, with strange expressions on their faces.

The Red Emperor, in particular, was visibly stunned.

Because the direction the arrow points to is actually within the territory of the Bernadotte Empire built by their three brothers!

Venerable Storm said: "Why did the Earth Soul Spring go to the mainland!"

As the Platinum Deacon of the Hundred Cities Federation, if he rashly entered the territory of the Bernadotte Empire, the risk would be considerable.

After all, this inland area is no better than the coastal areas. Once a battle breaks out, Gu Emperor and Landi may come to support him, and he may not be able to escape.

"I would have informed Panis if I knew about it earlier. If she was here, running away shouldn't be a problem."

Yang Xi asked: "You two, shall we go on?"

On the contrary, he was very happy in his heart. He didn't know how many powerful people followed the Mercenary Union and the Hundred Cities Federation. If something could really happen in the territory of the Bernadotte Empire, it was very likely to provoke a great war in advance!

The human race really won by lying down.

After all, the enemy is constantly fighting internally, and the people of the world are developing silently under the connection of Yang Xi.

The Red Emperor's face changed for a while, he was already on the verge of riding a tiger.

In the end, he resolutely flew to the territory of the Bernadotte Empire.

He can only hope in his heart that the Earth Soul Spring can save face and make another turn, even if he goes to the territory of the Hundred Cities Federation, he can accept it.

It would be really embarrassing to be caught by two elder brothers in the empire.

Especially in order to let the bone emperor break through, he also made that plan. Now that there is a better substitute, he, the younger brother, chooses to keep it private.

Although the plan was already being implemented when this clue was discovered, he was still in the wrong after all.

"Red Emperor, I'm actually very surprised about one thing. The arrow on the head of the Lord of Chaos Sea is horizontal, so how to locate the location of Earth's Soul Spring?"

"If it's very deep underground, don't we have to do another job?"

The Venerable Storm also looked at the Red Emperor. After all, like Yang Xi, he hadn't been plotting for this spiritual well, so naturally he didn't know the mystery of the secret technique.

When the Red Emperor was questioned by two powerhouses of Tier [-], he felt a little dark in his heart.

Not counting the arbiter played by Yang Xi, Lord Storm has often opposed him in the past, and now he sees this "enemy" eager for knowledge, and he naturally benefits somewhat.

However, he would not show these emotions on his face, but said coldly: "After locking the position of the terrain spirit spring from the plane, you can directly activate the secret method to pull it out from any deep position. .”

"Left and right are just consuming some magic power, and the explanation may require the actions of the two of you."

After listening, Yang Xi nodded thoughtfully.

The Ossaid people really have a few tricks. With the background of the current Azure Star human race, let alone the development of this secret technique of treasure hunting, they may not even be able to imagine the principle.

The gap between civilizations is sometimes really desperate.

Fortunately, the human race has Yang Xi, the greatest spy in history, who can not only do things inside the enemy, but also steal information and technology, and shorten the gap between the two civilizations by himself.

It's a pity that the time is not yet ripe. Yang Xi has done so much, but no one knows.

In the following day, the arrow above the head of the Lord of the Chaos Sea never deflected at a large angle. The four of them flew all the way and finally arrived at the hinterland of the Bernadotte Empire.

However, as they went deeper, the faces of the Red Emperor and the Storm Lord became worse and worse.

In the end, a city is far away.

Venerable Storm looked over and saw the name of this city - "Skeleton City".

"Red Emperor, don't I remember that the City of Bones is a small city centered on the silk trade? How come there are so many slaves all of a sudden."

The four of them were suspended in the air, and under their feet, there were human slaves swarming like ants, constantly flocking to the city of bones from all directions.

With their eyesight, they could see the shocking "ash cloud" over the City of Bones.

Yang Xi had a bad guess in his mind, but he still asked patiently: "Did some kind of plague happen to the city of bones? Why do you need to burn so many corpses?"

He felt a little strange, if there was a plague, it shouldn't have attracted so many human races!
He stared fixedly at the Red Emperor, trying to get an answer from him.
