Chapter 28 The golden Guan Erye

Wei Yuan left the old fairy Li Weihong, took the identification scroll he got unexpectedly, and went to the trade area to purchase some necessary consumables. He found the person in charge of the self-rescue committee in the trade area and brought the old man to the trade area. After explaining the mission assigned by the fairy aunt and being given some detailed information, he set off and left the Luo Ge camp.

  The old fairy told him that some special supplies in the trading area had been out of supply for some days, and asked him to go find someone from the committee to inquire about the specific situation.

  Old Fairy Girl: "You young man looks very promising, work hard~ the committee will not treat you badly!"

  The director of the trade area said: A special magic material called blood iron ore has been in short supply for some time. And gave him all the relevant information and mission details.

  This blood iron ore is a special type of iron produced in Huanglong City after the invasion of hell forces.

  This kind of iron is a special ore formed by human blood seeping into the iron products in the ruins and then being corroded by the power of hell. The blood iron and other associated metals extracted from the ore are good materials for making weapons and armor.

  Originally, the supply of blood iron ore to Luo Ge Camp was a small stronghold of survivors. However, a few days ago, the number of hell cavemen in the blood mine that produced blood iron ore suddenly increased greatly. The survivors of that small stronghold were not allowed to go mining. , almost not destroyed. Now they have all joined the Luo Ge camp to seek asylum.

  The mission hall has also issued missions, but some people came back disgraced after going there, and there were also a few teams with attrition and serious injuries.

  Not to mention the greatly increased number of hell cavemen, the complex terrain and tunnels inside the blood mine alone can trap a large number of people to death. People who are not familiar with the terrain simply cannot complete this task!

  Wei Yuan: No wonder the old lady cares about me so little! This is a sweet date first, there are still difficult tasks waiting for me!

  However, the value of a person lies in what others can't do, but can you do it? If you want to be treated better than ordinary people, you have to make achievements that are beyond ordinary people.

  Of course, it's easy not to be taken advantage of. As the saying goes: As long as I am useless enough, others cannot take advantage of me!

  Wei Yuan has already received the follow-up arrangements and possible rewards from the old fairy, so he is quite concerned about this task.

  Moreover, his soul card [Positive Feedback from the World (Soul)] was also triggered.

  [Blood Iron (White)]

  [The old lady likes you and gives you benefits, so you have to show some value, right? Go and bring back the shortage of blood iron ore. The more quantity, the better. ]

  [Reward: Starting from level 1 improvement...]

  ["Just think of it as a way to increase the old lady's favorability."]

  This task... okay.

  Anyway, it's just a matter of hunting rabbits, so that's the way to go.

  This level 1 was picked up for free. If you go to kill monsters, there will be dozens of them. If you save more, you will be upgraded.

  Wei Yuan went out from the south gate of Luo Ge's camp. Seeing that the camp could no longer be seen behind him, he summoned Fat Cat Chicken Legs.

  "Let's go, Chicken Legs! I'll take you to pay homage to the Second Master Guan..."

  "Ah? Where is this place? Who is the Second Master Guan?" The fat orange cat was suddenly summoned, and his consciousness was still in the state of vigil but sleeping. .

  The chicken legs quickly climbed up Wei Yuan's legs and onto his shoulders, and then looked around with his almost invisible neck dangling.

  For chicken legs, if you can sit, don't stand, if you can lie down, don't sit, and if you have something to eat, don't be idle; he is a benchmark figure who likes to eat, is lazy, and waits to die.

  "Is this Huanglong City?" It looked around, looking at the collapsed and dilapidated buildings around it.

  This is a place not too far south of Luo Ge's camp. Some old buildings have collapsed due to the power of hell and time. Even those that are still struggling to hold on are still on the verge of collapse.

  Bricks, tiles and all kinds of construction waste are everywhere, like hills of construction waste. In some places, they even block the originally wide roads.

  The whole city looks like those Middle Eastern cities in the news that have just fought a modern war, with ruins and ruins everywhere... This makes people think of destruction and disaster, and makes people seem unhappy.

  "This is quite broken!" Chicken Leg commented on the ruins in front of him.

  "By the way, who is Mr. Guan you are talking about?" Jiji asked.

  In the original world, there are no legends and cultural works about the earth before Wei Yuan traveled through. Basically no one knows who Guan Erye is.

  Otherwise, no one would tease the beard of a "little-known red-faced general" who had extremely strong regeneration ability but was chopped into a pile of rotten flesh...

  Wei Yuan looked around as he hurried on, the ruins were too big The environment was extremely complex, and there was no telling what monsters were hiding in any nook and cranny, so he couldn't help but be careless.

  He said: "Chicken Legs, please stay alert. There are many enemies in these ruins. Don't let anyone attack you. As for Mr. Guan, you will see him soon..."

  Although he didn't know why the old fairy was so treating him. Friendly, but Wei Yuan did learn valuable information from her. Normally, this information would have to be bought with money. So he was still very grateful to the old fairy.

  Among the information, there was information about the unique power in the ruins of this city...

  According to the old fairy, in the past few months twelve years ago, large-scale earthquakes and collapses began all over the world, and the entire earth seemed to be shattered. Same.

  Huanglong City also completely lost control in several successive major earthquakes.

  But at that time, the main body of the city had not been completely destroyed, and the population was still at least several million. The result is the invasion of hell...

  Various hell monsters that suddenly appeared and monsters that were corrupted and mutated by the power of hell began to harvest human lives. In less than three months, the number of survivors in the city dropped to hundreds of thousands. And it continues to decline under the influence of monsters, famine, disease and other factors.

  But in these three months, many things have undergone different changes due to the erosion of the power of hell, such as the "ancient bloodlines" awakened in people's bodies, such as those magic items and mechanical equipment that have been eroded by the magic power of hell, For example, those magical buildings and skills condensed with magic power...

  Among them, there is a special existence that can greatly help people who are adventuring and scavenging in these ruins. That is the temple.

  The most common temple is the "small land temple" that is less than one meter high and looks like a small house.

  In the past, such buildings were built in suburbs or even rural outskirts to worship the earth's master and the earth's grandmother.

  But in this apocalyptic ruins invaded by hell, such a small temple has a special power and can give special blessings to those adventurous survivors.

  From increased physical strength to rapid recovery, from sharp five senses to walking as fast as flying, there are also those warlocks and wizards who will receive blessings in a short period of time, the mana in their bodies will greatly increase, and they will even have a stronger understanding of some skills and abilities...

  It's just that these small temples have uncertain locations. They will disappear every time they bless someone, and will appear in other random places after a while.

  "So everything depends on fate." These are the original words of the old fairy.

  However, there are exceptions to everything.

  According to the old fairy girl, there are still some fixed and special temples in the ruins of this huge city.

  There are two places closer to here.

  One place is the statue of Guan Erye that Wei Yuan and the others are going to see.

  Luo Ge Camp is built along the river, the Huanglong River that runs through the north and south of the city.

  And this Guan Erye is on the bank of a small bend in the lower reaches of the Huanglong River.

  It is said that the old society in the early years. This is the largest Guan Gong Temple in the city. It is a large temple complex with four or five entrances in front and back, worshiping dozens of gods and goddesses.

  But then times changed, and nearly a hundred years later, the temple had long since disappeared.

  When the developer built a building here, all kinds of evil things happened one after another, and the project could not be carried out at all.

  Later, the masters invited from other places claimed that the feng shui of this river bend was extremely bad, and if it was not suppressed by the second master, no construction would be allowed.

  So the developer set aside a large piece of sloping land by the river and built a statue of Guan Erye holding a sword more than ten meters high, and even plated it with gold. The installation project of the golden statue was successfully completed, and nothing strange happened in the next twenty years.

  After the invasion of Hell, this golden statue of Guan Gong also changed and became one of the few immovable temples in the city, able to bless the survivors.

  This blessing can only occur once a month and lasts for about three days.

  Generally, survivors will come to Guan Erye to offer incense and pray for blessings before something big happens.

  The reason why Luo Ge's camp was chosen here is because it is much closer to the statue of Guan Erye. Maybe it was Guan Erye who showed up. There are very few hell monsters nearby...

  "Over there! There's something over there!" Chicken legs jumped off Wei Yuan's shoulder, and he rushed towards the collapse of a ruins. passed.

  Before Wei Yuan could react, the chicken legs had already slipped into the cracked hole, which was not much bigger than a dog hole.

  Wei Yuan hurried over and found that the tunnel made of construction debris was too small. He had to kneel down to get in, so he had to wait outside the cave.

  Hearing all kinds of roars and screams inside, Wei Yuan listened for a few seconds and felt relieved.

  After all, Chicken Legs is a cat demon, with its claws extended out to ten centimeters long... Apart from being a little lazy, it is still very capable of fighting, and ordinary monsters are no match for it.

  And if the chicken legs suffer, the cries will be much worse than this!

  Wei Yuan saw a section of steel bar leaking out of a broken piece of concrete, and reached out to hold the activation soul card [Refining of All Things (Soul)].

  The iron had no resistance in the face of the refining of all things, melting like a ball of plasticine, "flowing" out of the concrete, and turning into a small iron ingot in Wei Yuan's hand.

  He can continue to refine this iron ingot, but since it is used to deliver tasks, there is no need to go to any trouble.

  The task of collecting various raw materials in Luo Ge camp is pending all year round. Generally, scavengers have to use a big hammer when encountering this kind of situation. It is inefficient, not to mention making a lot of noise, and it is easy to attract monsters. How could Wei Yuan come so easily?

  The energy level consumption of Wei Yuan's smelting of ordinary items is very low, so he can do it even if he is idle.

  Wei Yuan: I can spend a whole day with you like this!

  Wei Yuan had just melted a steel bar here, and within thirty seconds, there was no sound in the hole.

  Soon the chicken legs came out dragging a strange thing like a porcupine with thorns all over its body. It was a large spiny rat with bloody flesh.

  "What kind of monster is this? It stinks! Bah, bah, bah!" Chicken Legs pulled the spiny rat's body aside while making a disgusting gesture.

  There was nothing to gain from killing a spiny rat, and Wei Yuan didn't even bother to put the spiny rat carcass into his backpack and take it back to sell.

  They can only be sold for a few cents in Luo Ge's camp, which is not interesting.

  But he could feel that even if the chicken leg bit the spiny rat to death, his energy level had increased a little!

  This was a good thing! It shows that it will be easier for me to upgrade in the future!

  Chicken Legs killed a lot of monsters along the way, most of them were small monsters with weak strength.

  Those little monsters hiding in the ruins died one by one under the claws of the feline hunter Chicken Legs.

  Soon, monsters stopped appearing. After spending more than twenty minutes climbing up and down in the ruins, one person and one cat finally arrived in front of the statue of Guan Gong.

  This statue of Guan Gong can be seen from a long distance, and its golden color is very conspicuous. Mr. Guan Erye stood with a long sword in his hand, brushing his beard with one hand and staring at the river bend, with a majestic face.

  "It's really different!" Wei Yuan could feel the power in the statue of Master Guan from afar. This power is different from what Wei Yuan has been exposed to before, and it feels vaguely more powerful. Could this be the legendary telepathy power of incense?

  He also felt this power behind the curtain in Lao Xiangu's room, but it was very subtle and not so intuitive and vast.

  Wei Yuan didn't dare to make a mistake. The chicken legs were more sensitive and attentive than him. He jumped to the ground early and followed behind him step by step, very honestly.

  As a little monster, it was frightened in front of the statue of Mr. Guan.

  Wei Yuan climbed up dozens of steps, took out the long incense that the old fairy had given him from his bag, lit it respectfully, and inserted it into the large bronze cauldron in front of Mr. Guan.

  The chicken legs on one side are also spread out, giving a big bow...
