The correct way to open the sprite

At the same time, a close associate of the Brocade Emperor and his entourage, disguised as an adventure group, appeared in the most prosperous city among the five new cities in the Meteor Mountains after a long journey.

A few days later, in the auction house set up by a brocade empire chamber of commerce in this new city, a high-quality wind magic crystal, a lot of processed blood of wind monsters, and a lot of things that could be used by the wind monsters were revealed. The material was sent to the auction house.

In these troubled times, these magic materials that can be used by magic sub-professionals and made into magic props have been auctioned for a very high price. A lucky adventure group has made a lot of money from this.

Coincidentally, a harpy's monster egg that was transported back to the Imperial Capital of the Brocade Empire by a mercenary group that was closely guarded and overcame many difficulties and obstacles was also sold by many magicians at the largest auction house in the Imperial Capital of the Brocade Empire. The auction resulted in a high price that astonished everyone.

Later, rumors spread that the harpy's magical beast eggs could be hatched and tamed through some means, and then became a rare helper, with amazing combat effectiveness as an adult.

The corpses of the two harpies that were brought to the imperial capital of the Brocade Empire along with the monster eggs were also divided among the nobles.

According to irresponsible rumors, the harpy's heart and liver were obtained by a prince of the royal family of the Brocade Empire, and the harpy's heart was presented to the Brocade Emperor. The emperor was very happy. I highly praise the prince's filial piety.

For a time, rumors spread quietly throughout the Imperial Capital of the Brocade Empire that eating the meat of the harpy could strengthen the body and prolong life.

In fact, this is not groundless. Regularly eating the meat of Warcraft can indeed make warriors more powerful. This is also the reason why orcs are so powerful.

Of course, this has no scientific basis.

But this kind of rumor with noses and eyes, helping the mercenary group and adventurers to hunt harpies in the Meteor Mountains and making a fortune overnight, spread like wildfire in the Brocade Empire and even the entire Gerien.

For a time, many frustrated adventurers packed their bags and weapons, and asked their comrades to head north, hoping to make a fortune from the plane creature Harpy.

The reason why the news spread so quickly was largely due to Cattail City. Not only did the two royal families in the human world officially purchase the telegraph machines from Cattail City, but even some large chambers of commerce also purchased some at high prices.

These discerning big businessmen not only used the telegraph machine as a communication tool for their own business, but also opened it to the public and started a business of transmitting messages for a fee. The fun and entertainment made the goblins who had already equipped the airship with a telegraph machine start to worry. Jaw-dropping.

"It is said that the news has spread to Moran. There are even mercenary groups in Moran who have applied to the Brocade Empire, asking Brocade to allow them to enter the Meteor Mountains through the Brocade Empire to help the Brocade Empire eliminate enemies from other dimensions.

However, before the Brocade Empire could say anything, the Moran royal family stopped them and did not agree with these private mercenary groups to leave the country and work for the Brocade Empire. "

Feng Yu was sitting in the observation room of the Plane Gate Fortress, telling Anthony and Dempsey vividly about the harmful tricks played by the Brocade Empire, making the two bored old men laugh.

Demps said: "It's impossible for everyone to do it."

Feng Yu said with a smile: "My analysis is that this is a damaging trick hatched by the Brocade Emperor, and with the cooperation of their magic guild, even if there are people who understand, they can only ensure that they will not participate in it. If they want to expose this conspiracy, I'm afraid that I don’t have the guts.”

Anthony said: "It can't be said to be a conspiracy, it's just an exaggeration. As a kind of magical beast, the harpy still has a lot of magic materials that can be used."

Dempsey continued: "It's just not that expensive, and high-level harpies are not that easy to hunt.

Not to mention the magic crystal core in the body of an ordinary harpy, it is estimated that there is not much magic in the body, and it will be dissipated after death. Apart from being a good food, what use can it have?"

Feng Yu said: "The two old men don't know something. The Brocade Empire is different from Moran. The Moran royal family does not restrict the development of mercenary groups, so Moran has many large mercenary groups.

These mercenary groups can sometimes even play a role that regular armies cannot achieve.For example, invade the Elf Forest and invade our Cattail City.

Some of the tasks of apprehending bandits and exterminating bandits in Moran were officially issued to mercenary groups to complete.

You have also seen the Moran mercenary gang. They even have heavy armor, which is not much worse than the regular army.

The Brocade Empire was different. The Brocade Empire was more powerful in force. The Brocade Emperor had greater ambitions and had stronger control over the armed forces.

The Brocade Empire has always regarded these adventure groups as a destabilizing factor for the empire.

There are no large mercenary groups in the Brocade Empire. They are all small adventure groups composed of groups of three to five or dozens of people. In this way, these organizations are also restricted in the Brocade Empire.

And this time when such news came out of the Brocade Empire, it was probably because the Brocade Emperor wanted to encourage the adventurers to rush to the front line to fight the Harpy.

And as you said, the Harpy is not that easy to kill. After all, it is a large-scale group of monsters that can drive away the Dharma Saint.

Even if those adventurers can kill some harpies in the early stage, as the harpies' sphere of influence expands and their numbers increase, it is estimated that those adventurers will inevitably pay a heavy price, and there will probably not be many left who can survive. .

Those harpies that were hunted in the early stage will inevitably cause the purchase and looting by the good guys.

In other words, the Brocade Emperor killed many harpies without spending a single soldier or a dime, and also solved the problem of domestic adventurers. It can be said that he killed two birds with one stone. "

Anthony snorted coldly, and Dempsey said with a smile: "A typical way of thinking of human emperors. The first king of mankind, Ke Ying, did it much better than them."

Feng Yu said with a smile: "Then it's none of our business, we just take care of our own homes.

However, I sent a message to the human chamber of commerce via telegram, offering a bounty for some harpies, some alive and dead, and bringing them over for study. "

Dempsey nodded and said: "That's good, at least we don't have to take risks with our soldiers, and you don't need that much money anyway.

The skeletons in the underworld have made me vomit after looking at them for a while. We have also seen the sea beasts of the abyss, but we have never seen what the harpy from the air element plane looks like."

Feng Yu smiled and agreed.
