Ashes City.

A colorful ray of rays of light fell from the sky and landed directly in the city lord's mansion.

Xia Lei let go of his hand that was holding Mrs. Nightingale's waist, "Mrs. Nightingale, we're here."

Mrs. Nightingale came to her senses and reached out to sort out her messed hair. Her hair was almost transparent like her skin tone, with an alternative beauty.

"Go to meet with me to meet the Lord of Guye City. Your proposal is very good and is in the interests of our Ashes City. But after all, I am not the Lord of the City. Such a decision must be made by my son-in-law City Lord." said Mrs. Nightingale.

Xia Lei said, "I won't go to see him. Just tell him and tell me his decision. But I want to remind you that if you refuse to cooperate, I will leave here."

"Are you leaving?" Mrs. Nightingale suddenly became nervous, and a feeling of loss appeared in her heart for some reason.

Xia Lei said: "I have something to do. If there is no reason or reason for me to stay here, I certainly wouldn't stay here."

"Okay, I'll go see the Lord of the Lone Night City now." said Mrs. Nightingale.

"I'll go shopping in the city." Xia Lei left. He wanted to try his luck. The snake-patterned man might not have left.

Mrs. Nightingale came to the room of the Lord of the Lone Night City.

The room was dimly lit, and the Lord of Guye was lying on the bed, his lost luster and wrinkled skin was no longer transparent, and he showed a dead gray color. His condition was getting worse and worse, and he didn't have much time left.

"I'm back." Mrs. Nightingale stood at the head of the bed, her voice was not loud and full of respect.

The Lord of Guye City slowly opened his eyes, looked at Mrs. Nightingale, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I have received the news, I did a good job. This time we severely damaged the Lava City and took down the blood crystal mine. There is no better result than this. After this battle, I saw the light of hope that I had never seen before. The future of our Ashes City is unlimited... Ahem... I am content with such a good thing before I die, and I have no regrets."

Mrs. Nightingale helped Lord Guye City up and gently patted him on the back, "You will not die. You have seen the day when Ashes City grow and grow. Your dream is to develop Ashes City into the most powerful city in the Western Region. Now this dream is coming true."

"Ahem... I know my own situation very well... I don't have much time..." The Lord of Guye City was weak, "By the way, why didn't that person named Long come back with you?"

Mrs. Nightingale said, "I am coming back this time to talk to you about him, and he gave me a suggestion."

“What proposal?”

Mrs. Nightingale expressed Xia Lei's proposal to cooperate in mining blood crystal mines and his judgment on the situation.

Lord Guye City fell into deep thought and frowned slightly. No one was willing to share the fat meat in his mouth with others. This is how he felt now. However, Xia Lei's analysis of the situation was very accurate. The blood crystal mine was indeed a fat meat from the mouth to the Ashes City, but this fat meat would attract a group of hungry wolves. If it was not handled properly, Ashes City would not only not be able to eat this fat meat, but may even be destroyed by this fat meat!

"I want you to make a decision," said Mrs. Nightingale.

The son-in-law, the city lord, said: "I want to hear your opinion."

Mrs. Nightingale said: "From the perspective of interests, of course, it is best for our Ashes City to mine exclusively. But from the perspective of human nature and safety, we should cooperate with him. Without his help, I will not only not be able to take down the blood crystal mine, but I may also die there."

The Lord of Guye City said: "He is indeed very strong, but I don't think he can help us guard that mine, and the Ashes City."

Mrs. Nightingale took out a small instrument and placed it on the head of the bed.

"What is this?" Lord Guye City said in confusion.

"It was given to me by a Tie guy named Hao Fang." Mrs. Nightingale poked out a crystal clear finger and pointed it on the silver instrument.

A blue light suddenly released from the small instrument, which was a projection of the floating city.

In this projection, thousands of engineer robots and robot engineering machinery are arranged in a square array for review. Recovering the soldiers' stance past the robot square array, he shouted in an exaggerated voice while walking, "Long live the Dragon King! Long live the Dragon King!"

There is only the sound of it, so the robot does not move at all.

Next to the robot phalanx are several infantry phalanxes, including soldiers from Wancheng, soldiers from Shu, and werewolf phalanxes led by werewolf Senpo and Qingteng. These people in the past were soldiers from the "Ghost Kingdom". Some of them were holding primitive cold weapons, while others were holding energy weapons.

However, what shocked the Lord of Guye City the most was the upper city floating in the sky, the golden palace. He was a man who had been to the Doomsday City, the imperial capital of the Black Sun Empire, and also saw the brilliant palace of the Black Sun Empire. However, compared with the palace of the floating city, it was simply a comparison between a humble room and a mansion!

"This..." The Lord of Guye City was so surprised that he couldn't speak.

Mrs. Nightingale said: "He is not a slave at all. He is the king of the Ghost Kingdom. His people call him the Dragon King. I have seen it in his city. Although the population in his city is not large, the technology of that city is more developed than that of the Blue Moon People. Those robots only need to pick up energy weapons and they are fighting robots. You know how terrible the Blue Moon People's combat robots are, but their robots are more advanced. He said that as long as he cooperates with him, he will send a robot to mine the blood crystal mine, which will be mined in less than a month. At that time, no matter who is looking at the blood crystal mine, it will be useless, because he will not give anything to those people or forces."

The Lord of Guye City grinned, "Hehe... What a mysterious guy, the Lord of the Ghost Country, have you ever heard of the Ghost Country?"

Mrs. Nightingale shook her head, "I have never heard of any ghost country, but..."

"But what?"

"I have seen his strength, and I can't think of anyone else in the Black Sun Empire who can defeat him. And his city, with its developed technology and full of vitality, I can't think of any other city in the Black Sun Empire that has better overall strength than his city," said Mrs. Nightingale.

The Lord of Guye City said: "It seems that I already know your opinion, let's cooperate with him."

Mrs. Nightingale put away the silver instrument, "Then I'll go find him and bring him to see you."

"Wait." The Lord of Guye City shouted.

"Is there anything else?" asked Mrs. Nightingale.

Lord Guye City hesitated for a moment and said, "After I die, you will be the lord of Ashes City. You will inherit my title. In addition... From now on, you are no longer my wife, and I will terminate our husband-wife relationship."

"You..." Mrs. Nightingale was stunned on the spot.

The Lord Guye City waved his hand, "Go, go find him. The fact that you are so young and we have no husband and wife, do you want to be a widow for me for the rest of your life? You are so beautiful and have a future that you should find a hero who deserves you."

The nightingale suddenly knelt down, and black tears burst out from her eyes.

At the same time, Xia Lei walked aimlessly on a street. He had walked several streets, but he didn't see the snake-patterned man.

Before I knew it, I came to the place where I met the snake pattern man last time.

There were people coming and going on the streets, and many people were talking about the victory achieved by Mrs. Nightingale. Defeating the 200,000 army of Lava City and seizing the Blood Crystal Mine, such a record was enough to blow on the screen of Ashes City for several years.

Xia Lei held up the hat covering his face on his head and glanced across his face. The back of a snake-patterned man suddenly entered his sight, but it was not the snake-patterned man he was looking for, but it was a young snake-patterned man. He sold some special-looking goods on the street, some rusty metal utensils, some medicinal materials, and dead beasts’ teeth. It was so messy and varied that they were placed on a flat animal skin bag.

Xia Lei walked over with a moving heart.

"Sir, what are you going to buy? My stuff is good and cheap." The young snake pattern man introduced to Xia Lei with a smile on his face when he saw the buyer coming.

Xia Lei squatted down and picked up a metal utensil to watch, "Where did you get these things?"

The young snake-patterned man said, "Of course it's obtained from adventures. I like adventures. This is what I found from a ruin and has a high collection value. If you like it, one hundred black gold will be sold to you."

Black gold, a general term for Night Watch currency.

"Do you usually go on adventures alone? Looking for these treasures." Xia Lei picked up the same thing and looked at it carefully, looking very well.

"Sometimes, sometimes we also form teams to explore. We snake pattern people like to explore, and adventure is something that is integrated into our blood." The young snake pattern people said proudly.

Xia Lei said: "Then do you recognize one..."

The young snake-patterned man interrupted Xia Lei's words, "Do you buy it or not? This is not a place to inquire about the news."

Xia Lei smiled, "Of course I want to buy it, I want to buy your treasure, how much does it cost?"

"all?"

"Sell or not?"

"Of course I'll sell it. If I buy it all, I'll take a little cheaper. You won't suffer any loss." The young snake-patterned man was silent for a moment, and then said, "Two thousand black gold."

"One thousand." Xia Lei said.

"No, no, you gave too little." The young snake-patterned man refused.

"If you don't sell it, forget it." Xia Lei stood up and was about to leave.

"Okay, you are such a bargaining expert. I'll sell it to you. Anyway, I'm just about to deal with these things and go to a new place to explore, which is cheaper for you." said the young snake-patterned man, while putting the things into a skin bag.

Xia Lei paid the money and left with a snakeskin bag.

The young man with snake tattoo looked at Xia Lei's back as he left, and a smile appeared on his lips, "What a fool, those things are expensive if you think they are five hundred."

The young man with snake pattern also left and walked towards the city gate.

On the other side, Xia Lei threw the things he bought and the bags on the street, and then mixed into the crowd and followed.

ps: Thank you for your reward from the Female Thieves era. Thank you! Friends, the weather is hot, please pay attention to the cooling down. Also, I would like to say that there are too many school banquets in the past few days, so the promised August update cannot be fulfilled. I promise that the 10th update will definitely be updated, just like last month, and 4 updates will be released in a few days.
