On April 15, Chen Zhi arranged for his family to go to Istrel to hide.
A total of more than a hundred people were staying in various places, waiting for Chen Ping's signal.
Tieshan also came with him. Because of his strong strength, he was questioned a lot when he entered the city and was not allowed to enter the city.
At this time, Chen Ping came over and blocked the shoulder of the Elf Guard Captain, laughed and said: "This is my tribe, just for convenience."
"Since we are brothers and your tribe, let's go in." The Elf Guard Captain smiled at Chen Ping, and the two walked to the side and started chatting in a low voice, making one or two laughs from time to time, which made the various tribesmen who entered the city endure it.
Don't hesitate to come over and take a look.
Chen Ping has been operating in Eastral for many years. Since Chen Zhi provided him with various supplies and money, he was absolutely indispensable. Therefore, many elves came to his side due to his generosity.
After all, who doesn’t like someone who has a lot of money, is arrogant and easy to get along with?
Like the captain of the elf guard, Chen Ping would come to visit him every now and then, and the relationship was already very good.
Everything is for today, otherwise people like Tieshan and others would not be able to enter Istrel.
After all, if there is only one strong person, there will not be much vigilance, but if more than a hundred powerful professionals enter at the same time, even a fool will be wary.
Elves are not a very open-minded race, and they don't think highly of other races.
Istrel is so lenient because it is on the border and relies on the Luohua Forest. The other elven cities that go inside are very xenophobic.
Chen Ping had tried to integrate there a long time ago, but in the end he came back in vain.
"Thanks."
Tieshan slowly walked into the city. Although he had heard Chen Ping talk about the elven buildings here many times, it still felt like an eye-opener.
What he is carrying on his back is not a mountain hammer, but a relatively common and sophisticated piece of equipment.
Even the Mountain Hammer is about to become obsolete for Tieshan, but the value of the rare-level equipment itself is still very great. There are no more than five elves in Istrel with weapons of this level. Once Tieshan holds it,
With the appearance of the Mountain Hammer, even if Chen Ping had managed the relationship well, there was no way for others to relax their vigilance towards him.
Chen Ping has always created the feeling for the elves that the human race is just a very weak race, and the resources in the tribe are very scarce, so the elves do not need much attention at all.
That is to say, Chen Ping's own personality is very suitable for socializing with others. He had made good friends with many people in the tribe before, and even the eccentric Jialan relied heavily on him to do so well here.
If it were Tieshan who came here, it wouldn't take long for the secret to be exposed. His own personality is not good at deception.
"Powerful human professional, for the sake of Chen Ping, I would like to remind you that no matter what provocation you encounter in the city, you must not take action. Many people like strong slaves like you." The Elf Guard Captain looked at Iron
shouted the back of the mountain.
"Thanks for the reminder."
After Tieshan replied, he continued to walk into the city. As he walked on the street, he exchanged glances with many hidden people, and each other knew that they had entered the city.
These were all assassins who had hidden themselves in advance and had been active in East Lair for several years. It was with their help that Chen Ping was able to establish connections so quickly.
…
In the evening, in a gorgeous manor in the center of the city, Chen Ping and Tieshan sat in the meeting hall, with dozens of Tuohun people sitting below them.
"This time the transportation of life spring water will be in seven days. At that time, Archduke Ostow will send his most elite elf guards there." Chen Ping took out a sheepskin map with a route drawn on it, and you can see the life
The spring was transported along a trail, avoiding all the elven cities along the way.
"The spring of life is too precious, and every elf noble wants to get more, but they don't have the power of Grand Duke Ostow, so they have very little reserves." Chen Ping explained, "Grand Duke Ostow naturally became the target of public criticism.
, many people want to get the fountain of life from his hands. If he dares to pass this spring of life through other cities, then nothing will be left, and he can only walk through the paths outside."
"Is this the way to go this time?" Tieshan asked.
"There is a probability of more than 90% that there are only a few routes in total. This one was recently opened, and I spent a lot of effort to obtain it from his guard captain."
Tieshan said in surprise: "Didn't you say last time that you hadn't gained his trust yet?"
The last time he was talking about was the time when Chen Ping returned to the base camp, and that was when the two of them finalized their plan for this time.
Chen Ping smiled and said: "I just discovered some secrets of this guy."
He explained briefly, and then Tieshan realized that the lives of these elves had become so corrupt.
Shaking his head, he said: "I hope our Tuohun tribe will not have such people appear in the future."
Chen Zhi, who heard Tieshan's words in the sky, thought to himself: "It will never appear. If anyone appears, I will kill him first."
The presence of such a borer would significantly reduce the improvement in strength. He would not tolerate the presence of such a borer in his family.
Of course, it would be great if borers appeared in other races. If there weren't borers like Archduke Ostow, he wouldn't be able to get the idea of the fountain of life.
Each time Archduke Osto produced as few as three drops of life spring water, and as many as a dozen drops. The total of the diluted potions he had purchased over the years was probably less than one drop.
It can be said that the entire army of Archduke Ostow was raised by the fountain of life. It was not that he wanted to be corrupt, but that he was not corrupt. His current huge army immediately fell apart.
When the time comes, those enemies who are his enemies will not let him go at all, so from this aspect, he is also riding a tiger with difficulty.
It is not easy to manage a city, especially for a frontier official like Grand Duke Ostow. Facing the threat of monsters in the Luohua Forest, the maintenance of regular troops is several times that of others, and as long as an elf is injured, he must
It would cost a large sum of money for medical treatment, and it would be even more serious if there were casualties. The families of the fallen elves must be taken care of.
In the two thousand years of the kingdom, various systems have been very perfect, and the people's welfare system is excellent.
"In this case, I will let you make full arrangements for this matter, and I will listen to your arrangements."
Hearing Tieshan's words, the Tuohun tribe below were shocked. They did not expect that the tribe leader would directly delegate power.
Chen Ping also stood up in shock, "Clan leader, this is not okay, I."
Tieshan raised his hand to stop what he was about to say, "There's nothing wrong with it. I believe in you. I've seen all your efforts in the past few years."
The hatching of dragon eggs is currently the most important thing for the Tuohun people. Everyone knows that as long as the dragon eggs can hatch, the power of the Tuohun people can be greatly improved.
For this, no matter how much you pay, it is worth it.
Chen Ping saw the determination on Tieshan's expression. He took a deep breath, nodded heavily and said, "Don't worry, clan leader, I will definitely lead the clansmen to safely obtain the spring of life this time."
Tieshan smiled and said: "Your words are enough."
Then he looked at the other people below, "Did you all hear it?"
"Yes, patriarch, we will definitely obey Captain Chen's instructions."
Because the Tuohun tribe has a small number of people, the internal division of responsibilities is relatively simple.
Like Tieshan, everyone calls him the clan leader, and people like Chen Ping, Chen An, Lao Mo and others are called the captain.
"Then the matter is settled. In seven days, action will begin."
"yes."
…
Seven days later, in the city lord's palace, a small group of elven warriors left Istrel at night.
They didn't notice that behind them, there were more than a hundred people following quietly.
[Mimicry] once again plays a powerful role. Although it is only a blue entry, it is still providing powerful help to the Tuohun people.
"These elf warriors are all third-level professionals. Their perception is very powerful. Once the distance is less than three hundred meters, they will be easily discovered. We will maintain the current distance behind us and cannot get closer." Chen Ping was wearing a night suit.
, to remind the shield guards behind them.
Lao Mo nodded and said: "Don't worry, brothers will never cross you."
Compared with other professions, the agility attribute of shield guards is a bit lower, so they are the weakest in terms of hiding their body shape, so they need to be extremely careful.
Others, whether they are archers, assassins or wizards who can use transformation, can perfectly hide their bodies from being discovered.
However, shield defense must not fail to appear, otherwise the human side's frontal strength will be very weak in the subsequent frontal battle, and a third-level professional can destroy the human side's formation with just one attack.
"Old Mo is right. Although we are not as fast as you, our experience is definitely not less than yours. We don't know how many times we have to follow the prey." A strong man who was also the first batch of dependents laughed.
He said, I think back then he chased a deer to death with just one pair of legs! That was also something that made him extremely proud in his life.
But today is different from the past. I am countless times stronger than before, and my prey has also changed from an ordinary deer to a third-level professional.
"I have never seen a third-level professional attack with all his strength. I don't know how many times I can withstand them." Another shield guard said, without any fear of the third-level professional in his eyes. He believed that
The partners around him will definitely take him back even if they are seriously injured.
As the group of people whispered to each other, they were already dozens of kilometers away from Istrel, and further to the west there were some hills.
"You have to follow closely here, but don't be too tight."
Chen Ping interrupted everyone who was still chatting, and his expression became serious.
The road ahead will be more difficult. If you are not careful, you may lose sight of the elves in front, or enter their sensing range.
…
"Who chose the route this time? Why is it so difficult?"
In a team of more than a dozen people, an elf warrior with a long sword complained.
