The Bayonet Gang quickly ran to the ground.

Spring Boxer and Blue Algae were surprised to find that the ground in the black market did not suffer violent damage. It seemed that the earthquake was limited to the black market.

"Strange, what on earth is going on?"

"Is someone deliberately sabotaging the black market?"

Xiong Saw shook his head: "That's not the case. The stronghold has also been destroyed. Go back quickly, the gang leaders need us to go back."

Everyone ran at full speed and soon returned to the stronghold.

All the houses near the stronghold collapsed and became a large area of ​​ruins. The casualties were horrific, and a large number of people were buried among them.

The losses were much greater than those in the black market, and the Bayonet Gang's temporary stronghold was among them.

Both the Ice Owl and the human leader stayed in the stronghold.

Ice Owl's expression was very gloomy.

When he became aware of the battle between Qianxing and Master Caijing, he immediately ordered all personnel to be reduced and stationed at the stronghold for defense.

What Ice Owl is worried about is that this battle will trigger a shock to the entire Huaqu Island. In the chaos, it is very likely that someone will fish in troubled waters, take advantage of the situation, and attack the temporary stronghold of the Bayonet Gang.

This is their only stronghold.

Bing Xiao is an old gang leader and is very aware of the situation of the Bayonet Gang on Huaqu Island.

The original Silver-level forces have carved up Huaqu Island. The Bayonet Gang is considered a cross-river dragon. The arrival of several Silver-level forces has severely impacted the existing structure of Huaqu Island.

The Bayonet Gang has not truly integrated into Huaqu Island. To truly integrate, the Bayonet Gang must undergo a baptism of blood and fire and outlaw its original position in order to be stable.

Therefore, Ice Owl's order is very sensible.

He was very worried that in this chaos, other forces would join forces to deal with the Bayonet Gang, disguised as thugs, and attack the Bayonet Gang's stronghold.

The stronghold seems to be nothing, even if it is washed away, the Bayonet Gang can completely change to another place to temporarily station.

But in Ice Owl's view, this stronghold cannot be lost easily.

There are three main reasons.

First, the basement of the stronghold contains the Bayonet Gang's funds, a large amount of training resources, weapons and equipment, etc. The most important thing is the ice coffin where Fujituro is buried.

Second, the Bayonet Gang escaped from Snowbird Harbor. Although they have recuperated, their morale is still low. If they cannot even hold their only stronghold in a place like Huaqu Island, this will have a negative impact on this kind of morale.

The blow was very serious. For the current Bayonet Gang, it is definitely adding insult to injury.

Third, Ice Owl hopes that the Bayonet Gang can occupy a certain position on Huaqu Island. If it cannot even hold its only stronghold, it will give other forces an impression of being weak and bullyable. In the future, the Bayonet Gang will come to gain a firm foothold.

The price paid will be greater, and the bloodshed and sacrifices will be greater.

Ice Xiao took the initiative to shrink the defense and considered the crisis in advance. This move can be described as mature and prudent.

But what he never expected was that this area of ​​the stronghold would suffer a strong impact. The earthquake happened so suddenly that the ground shook!

Houses all collapsed and collapsed, and the once flat ground became uneven.

In the temporary base of the Bayonet Gang, a simple magic circle has been established, which has certain protective capabilities. However, under such a powerful impact, this defensive power is like paper and has no effect at all.

The most critical thing is the ice coffin hidden in the basement, which was also damaged.

One corner of the ice coffin was broken, and Fujituro's calf was almost completely separated from his knee.

This incident pushed the ice owl to the edge of the cliff.

One of the prerequisites for him to go to Anqiu is that Fujituro's body remains intact.

When he recovered Fujituro's body in Snowbird Port, he was extremely lucky that the latter's body was intact.

"Fujituro's body has been damaged, and there is very little time left for me. The only way is to go to Anqiu as soon as possible!"

The cruel reality seriously undermined Ice Owl's plan.

He had to speed up everything and push forward the Anqiu plan at all costs.

Fortunately, during the time he landed on Huaqu Island, the main thing he did was to promote this plan.

Through brutal duels, he collected most of the materials.

The only remaining main material is mithril.

Therefore, the whole plan has almost reached the final step.

However, the amount of mithril needed by Ice Owl is very large, but this metal is a rare substance and is difficult to purchase in the regular market.

Ice Owl found out in advance that a large amount of Mithril was being sold on the black market, but unfortunately, the gang's funds were not enough to purchase the amount he needed.

Mithril is very expensive.

Therefore, Ice Owl had no choice but to order Xiong Saw to go to the black market and directly grab enough Mithril.

"I hope their trip will be successful." Bing Xiao secretly prayed, feeling very stressed. "Otherwise, everything will be irreversible. All the previous efforts will be in vain."

Spring Boxer, Bear Saw and others returned with enough mithril to finally let Ice Owl put aside his worries.

"Well done!" Ice Owl praised.

Bear Saw pointed at the blue algae: "Thanks to Fenfa, he was the one who intercepted the clerk who was absconding with mithril."

The ice owl smiled and nodded to the blue algae.

Lan Zao smiled: "I just wanted to make a fortune and accidentally grabbed the mithril. In this case, I'll leave first."

A look of worry flashed across Spring Boxer's face, but he couldn't stop Blue Algae from leaving anymore, so he could only warn: "Then you should be more careful recently. After all, they may regard you as a member of the Bayonet Gang."

When the Ice Owl on the side heard this, his heart suddenly moved.

He was an old man and he immediately stopped Lan Zao: "Haifa, don't leave in a hurry. You helped us this time, but we can't put you in danger. You went to the island with us, so

You helped us grab Mithril again and again. In the eyes of others, you must be one of ours!"

"If you leave alone now, those people won't immediately come to trouble us, but they will definitely attack you first. Although your strength has grown very quickly, you are only at the Black Iron level after all, and you are alone, so you will be easily attacked.

Plots and ambushes."

"Well, you stay with us first. After this chaotic period is over and their suspicions are cleared, you can move freely again. This is the safest way."

"It's not easy for you either. You're lucky enough to have awakened your bloodline. Don't be too careless and bury yourself. Your future prospects are bright, and the scenery at the silver level is much more beautiful than that at the black iron level!"

Bing Xiao said a lot of words that were deeply rooted in people's hearts.

He actually wanted to keep Cyanobacteria completely within the Bayonet Gang.

Now is a good opportunity!

And what he said does make sense and is not an exaggeration.

This time they publicly robbed the black market. The Bayonet Gang really broke a taboo, and they will definitely be jointly held accountable by other silver-level forces in the future.

The Bayonet Gang has long been a thorn in the side of various forces on Huaqu Island.

After all, there are many Silver-level members in the Bayonet Gang who are very powerful and feared.

Now that the Bayonet Gang has done something like this, it is a serious provocation to the old order of Huaqu Island.

The various Silver-level forces on the island are usually good at cooperating.

Now facing a powerful enemy like the Bayonet Gang, they will definitely unite and attack together.

Lan Zao originally intended to stay here and join the Bayonet Gang. After hearing Bing Xiao's words, he frowned and looked like he was thinking. Then he nodded.

Ice Owl patted Lan Zao on the shoulder and settled him down. Then he ordered Xiong Zao, the human leader and others to defend around the base.

Then, he took Spring Boxer alone into the basement.

Arriving in the basement, Spring Boxer exclaimed and quickly walked to the damaged ice coffin.

In Spring Boxer's heart, Fujituro is like his second father. The latter has always cared for Spring Boxer and spared no effort in cultivating him.

Fujituro's body was damaged, making Spring Boxer's face look full of grief.

"Okay, Spring Kid, now is not the time to let you wallow in pain." Ice Owl reminded, "We have to hurry up."

"Now hurry up and do what I say. Carefully read every step of mine, and do your best to remember them firmly. You will probably be able to use them in the future." Bing Xiao said.

Ice Owl began to process various alchemical materials collected in the basement.

Spring Boxer immediately noticed that Ice Owl mainly used the rare materials he won in the brutal duel.

Spring Boxer couldn't help but be curious. While arranging the materials according to Ice Owl's instructions, he asked him the reason for this move.

Ice Owl didn't look back, and replied as he did so: "By doing this, we can go to Anqiu."

"Going to Anqiu? Use these?" Spring Boxer was surprised.

He always thought that they would leave Huaqu Island by boat and approach Anqiu step by step.

"Old gang leader, are we building a teleportation array?" Spring Boxer asked again.

"Of course not! I am not a mage, just a fighter. We are just arranging the rituals of the priests."

"Sacrifice? What kind of sacrifice can allow us to go directly to Anqiu?"

"Of course it's a special sacrifice! I can't explain the specifics. You can understand it after experiencing it once." Bing Xiao said.
