Seeing that Fang Heng had signed the contract, Barov nodded with satisfaction. He put the contract away and said solemnly, "Feudal Lord Fang Heng, don't worry. The money will enter the monitoring account of the Mage Association within three hours, and the materials will be sent to the Empire's main city within 12 hours."
"Feudal Lord Fang Heng, we also want to reach a cooperation agreement with you!"
"Yes. There should still be a place for the first group, right? We are also willing to offer 10%. Please help our territory!"
The rest of the feudal lords realized that they had a chance, so they surrounded Fang Heng and signed contracts with him. The contract price for construction was also increased from 5% to 10%.
Seeing the feudal lords who were all thankful to Fang Heng while giving money to him, the faces of player Ed and his companions darkened.
Ed felt extremely helpless.
They came here to expose Fang Heng's lie. Yet, why did more and more people scramble over to be cheated instead?
Fang Heng was just a terrifying opponent!
Just as the crowd surrounded Fang Heng to sign contracts, the sword saint Chepo noticed something. He suddenly turned his head and looked at the darkness behind him.
"Chepo, what's wrong?"
Noticing that Chepo's expression was strange, Lord Brent asked in a low voice, "Is there anything wrong with him?"
"No, it's not him. The teleportation array is fine. It's that box."
Lord Brent frowned and looked in the same direction as Chepo.
At the back of the team, a group of cave-dwelling beasts that were carrying a few large boxes joined the team.
"You mean there is something wrong with those boxes?"
"Yeah," Chepo nodded and said, "I can feel strong power fluctuations from the boxes. It feels familiar."
As he spoke, he walked towards the boxes.
Apart from Chepo, Randolf also noticed the boxes immediately and turned his gaze toward them.
He felt extremely strong power fluctuation from the boxes as well.
"Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"
The cave-dwelling beasts that were carrying the boxes immediately raised their weapons and hissed warnings when they found that someone was approaching.
The strange behavior of the cave-dwelling beasts attracted everyone's attention.
Instead of going up to check it forcefully, Chepo turned to look at Fang Heng and asked, "Feudal Lord Fang Heng, what are in the boxes?"
Fang Heng looked at the boxes thoughtfully.
Good question. He also wanted to know!
He stepped forward and explained, "Umm, they were found in the underground world. They will be transported back to the Land of Plague along the way."
"Can I have a look?" Chepo asked as he stared at Fang Heng, "The power fluctuations remind me of the barbarians I have fought with."
Everyone surrounded them.
Fang Heng nodded and said, "They do have something to do with the barbarian race."
Chepo continued to stare at the black stone and asked, "Can I have a look?"
Lord Brent walked up to Fang Heng and said, "this is my friend. Can you show us what's in the boxes? It's very important to us. I'll owe you a favor."
"Sure. To be honest, I don't know what's in the boxes either, so I was planning on sending them back to the Land of Plague for inspection. If you can give me the answer, I will be very grateful."
Shrugging his shoulders, Fang Heng said to Argyll, "Ask them to get out of the way. We need to open the boxes to have a look."
Hearing this, the cave-dwelling beasts made way. With a wave of his hand, Chepo opened a box.
A big black stone lay quietly in the box.
The feudal lords were all puzzled. They didn't know why a stone could make Lord Brent so interested and even owe Fang Heng a favor.
"I found it in the underground world. It contains an energy fluctuation. Do you know its origin?"
Chepo looked at the black stone and ultimately shook its head.
This was very similar to the energy fluctuation he had been looking for, but he was looking for a person, not a stone.
Randolf also carefully examined the stone for a moment and said, "It's also the first time I've seen such a stone. Its structure looks very strange, and it can resist the detection of mental strength."
"How about my fellow feudal lords? Does anyone know the origin of this stone?"
The feudal lords all shook their heads.
They couldn't sense any energy from the stone. In their eyes, it was just an ordinary stone, and the others were making a fuss.
Disappointed, Fang Heng waved his hand to the cave-dwelling beasts to close the boxes.
The team continued to move forward.
However, at the back of the team, the members of Ed's team had incomparably surprised expressions on their faces.
They exchanged glances with each other.
The enlightenment stone!
To think they saw such a large piece of the enlightenment stone!
...
On the other side of the underground cave, Wei Tao and Mikhael rested for some time before launching a surprise attack on a barbarian camp.
After a fierce battle, the team successfully cleared up the barbarian camp.
Mikhael's men found the map of the barbarian race's underground world in the camp with a stroke of luck.
"Just as the rumors said, the barbarians launched a surprise attack on the human kingdom through the underground world as a passageway. The marks on the map are [Hint: Your team assisted the cave-dwelling beasts in defeating the supply camp of the barbarian race in the underground world, which affected the Empire's front-line battlefield. The score of the game has been slightly improved.]
[Hint: You have obtained part of the military map of the barbarian race in the underground world.]
While cleaning up the battlefield after the battle, Wei Tao and Mikhael gathered to discuss.
Looking at the map in his hand, Wei Tao more or less came to a realization.
"Just as the rumors said, the barbarians launched a surprise attack on the human kingdom through the underground world as a passageway. The marks on the map are the transfer points and supply camps of the barbarian race in the underground world. If we intercept them, it may affect the barbarian race's front battlefield. The improvement of our mission evaluation will be certain then."
Mikhael nodded, "Well, isn't that good? With this map, our following task is easy. We can find all the strongholds of the barbarians in the underground world, accurately hit their weak spots, and cut off their supply lines."
The two discussed for a while and decided to continue to follow the cave-dwelling beasts to kill the barbarian race and improve their trial evaluation.
There was a barbarian camp not far ahead, and the guards were very weak.
This was much easier than the previous tasks that required brains.
After making the operation plan, Mikhael sighed and said, "Wei Tao, do you think it's possible that our previous mission path choice is wrong? If we go to the front battlefield directly and defeat the barbarians, could we get a higher evaluation?"
It was rare that things went smoothly, so Wei Tao's heavy mood improved a little. He stretched and loosened his muscles.
"Who knows? If we didn't come to the underground world, we wouldn't have found so much purple essence, not could we deal with the demonized barbarians."
"That's true," Mikhael nodded in agreement, "I wonder how the investigation on Tang Mingyue and Fang Heng's side is going."
