Apocalypse Magician

At the same time, on the outskirts of Xingxue City, there was a vein of magic crystal.

On a high ground, Yun Lan stood facing the wind, looking indifferently at the group of people approaching below, as if she had already secured victory.

Suddenly, a subordinate rushed over, clasped his fists and saluted: "General, a team of troops from the Qingtian Empire is about to arrive at the ambush site. We are ready and can act at any time."

The matter dates back to one day ago. A "hunter" lost his way while hunting nearby. He "accidentally" discovered the magic crystal veins on the outskirts of Xingxue City, and "accidentally" walked towards the Qingtian Empire's garrison. When a soldier asked for directions, he "accidentally" revealed the discovery of a magic crystal vein.

The discovery of new mineral veins often causes uproar. Resources of this level can even directly turn two countries against each other. For individuals who report mineral vein information, it is a great achievement, and promotion and wealth are just around the corner.

So, in just one day, a team of people from the Qingtian Empire came, creating the current situation.

"Very good. Let's all put on the Empire of the Rising Sun costumes and act as planned." Yun Lan still looked down, carefully observing each other's movements.

"General, there is something unclear about this subordinate." The subordinate hesitated slightly, but still asked the question in his heart, "Why should we listen to that Li Xingkong? He is just a puppet anyway, and it is easy to kill him."

"This is what Her Royal Highness the Princess means. No need to ask any more questions." Yun Lan was not confused at all. She waved her sleeves, turned around and walked down, "Start taking action."

This team of Qingtian Empire was led by Vice General Zhang. After receiving a report from his subordinates about the magic crystal veins, the Vice General blocked the news.

Anyone who reports this kind of news to the imperial city will have a great opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune. If he reports it to the general now, the opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune will be nothing to him. The credit belongs to the general alone.

So Vice General Zhang felt desperate and took a team of trustworthy subordinates to confirm. If the situation was true, he would immediately find a way to return to the imperial city and report to the higher level.

I don’t know whether Vice General Zhang was lucky or unlucky. After circling the barren mountains and ridges for several times, he finally discovered the location of the magic crystal vein. When he returned successfully after confirming that it was correct, he encountered a group of people dressed as the Empire of the Rising Sun army.

Of course, this was done in disguise by Yun Lan and his group, but Vice General Zhang obviously didn't know the mystery behind it.

"Who are you?" Vice General Zhang could see the attire of the opponent's Rising Sun Empire army, but he still had to ask tentatively. He must stop the opponent here, otherwise in this direction, the opponent would be able to find the magic crystal if he advanced for an hour. Mineral veins, if the Empire of the Rising Sun seizes the opportunity, then your promotion and fortune will most likely fall short, "This is not your territory, please withdraw immediately."

"Haha, a nobody like you can come, why can't I, the general?" Yun Lan smiled contemptuously, not taking the other party seriously at all, "When did this place become the territory of your Qingtian Empire?"

"This..." Vice General Zhang guessed that the other party had also heard about the magic crystal veins, and he wanted to stop the other party from moving forward.

It stands to reason that the mountains here are indeed the territory of the Sunset Empire and are under the jurisdiction of Xingxue City. However, this kind of barren mountains and wild ridges have long been a no-nonsense zone. Even Xingxue City itself is not within the investment and construction scope of the Sunset Empire, but it happens here. The Demon Crystal Mine, the Sunset Empire has too much time to take care of itself on the battlefield, even if it wants to, it is estimated that it is unable to do so, while the Rising Sun Empire is far away from here, and even has to bypass Star Snow City.

So in Vice General Zhang's view, it was logical for the Qingtian Empire to take over: "Anyway, at least geographically, this place is closer to the Qingtian Empire."

"Well, that's true." Yun Lan's status and experience are beyond the comparison of a small deputy general. "From a geographical point of view, your cities are also very close to our Empire of the Rising Sun."

"You..." Vice General Zhang was speechless for a moment. Obviously, the other party's implication was that according to this theory, the entire Qingtian Empire should belong to the Rising Sun Empire.

In fact, Vice General Zhang was very conflicted at the moment. If he accidentally clashed with the Empire of the Rising Sun here, he would definitely be severely punished when he returned. However, the magic crystal vein was right in front of him, so he couldn't just let it go.

"After talking so much nonsense, you really just want to monopolize the magic crystal veins, right?" Yun Lan originally came here to make trouble, but the other party was silent. He had to cause some trouble, "Since the general has also obtained the information, how can he get it easy? Your Qingtian Empire?"

"I don't know what you are talking about." Vice General Zhang's heart trembled. He was really afraid of what might happen. However, the opponent only had a hundred people. At least he was several times more numerous than the opponent. For the sake of his official career, if he had been a little tougher , maybe it can make the other party retreat, "However, I don't think you want to have a conflict here."

"Thank you for reminding me, I almost forgot. If I kill you now, the magic crystal veins will belong to our Empire of the Rising Sun." Yun Lan was thinking of finding a reason to take action, but the other party's words hit the target, so she waved her hand. , "Brothers, kill!"
