Chapter 79: Identity Exposed

On the way to the next mission location, a deer ran straight into Zhao Yuxin and the others' tricycle; the sharp Impact Cone pierced through the deer, and fresh blood dripped down from its body.

Zhu Zhiquan took out a bag inside the carriage to catch the dripping deer blood, deciding to wait until the blood had drained completely before dismantling it.

Drip, drip, drip~

At this moment, the two felt someone @ them in the Player Group Channel, and Zhao Yuxin opened the panel to check.

Deputy Regiment Leader of the Black Mouth Blade Regiment: "@everyone get to the First Island, quickly!"

Captain of the Fourth Brigade of the Black Mouth Blade Regiment: "Yes!"

Captain of the First Squad of the Fourth Brigade of the Black Mouth Blade Regiment: "Understood, I will definitely arrive!"

Captain of the Fifth Brigade of the Black Mouth Blade Regiment: "Yes, Lord Deputy Regiment Leader!"

………………

Seeing this, Zhao Yuxin hurriedly shouted to Zhu Zhiquan: "Ajiu, come up quickly, the plan has changed, our original mission location has to be changed."

Zhu Zhiquan called over the Ice Cream Cactus, handed the bag to it with instructions to catch the dripping deer blood, and then Zhu Zhiquan carried the deer's carcass back into the tricycle carriage.

Zhao Yuxin drove the tricycle and analyzed for Zhu Zhiquan: "Just now, that Jiugong Cilang demanded everyone return to the Chushidaoyu; next, Ling Xi will very likely come over to find us for information."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Ling Xi teleported into their carriage, asking for the latest intelligence on the Black Mouth Blade Regiment as soon as she arrived.

After Zhao Yuxin explained it to her, they began to discuss countermeasures; Zhao Yuxin first stated her requirements: "I need items that can be timed or remote-controlled, such as: alarm clocks, remote controls, hourglasses, etc."

After Ling Xi sent Zhao Yuxin's requirements to the Regiment Leader of the Black Lock Blade Regiment, she asked: "The Regiment Leader of the Black Lock Blade Regiment told me they can make alarm clocks, how many do you need?"

"This is for researching new plants, right? The Regiment Leader of the Black Lock Blade Regiment told me you can have as many as you want."

"Good, as long as there are infinite resources, making new plants is a piece of cake!"

"Alright, I'll stay here for now and won't leave until you have successfully researched a sufficient amount of new plants."

"Mm!" Having said that, Zhao Yuxin and Zhu Zhiquan swapped positions, while Zhu Zhiquan also instructed the Ice Cream Cactus to make sure all the deer blood was collected.

"Mm~" The Ice Cream Cactus tilted its head, pondering how exactly it should collect all the deer blood.

Meanwhile, Zhao Yuxin drew a Magic Array on the side and began researching new plants, while Ling Xi used their Food-Eating Doll to deliver all the supplies Zhao Yuxin needed, incidentally assisting the Ice Cream Cactus in collecting the deer blood.

On the way, Ling Xi bargained with the Regiment Leader of the Black Lock Blade Regiment in the name of Zhu Zhiquan and the others, and then the Food-Eating Doll spat out forty catties of mutton and six vials of Living Essence Fluid.

Name: Living Essence Fluid

Quality: Blue

Introduction: This is a battlefield nutritional fluid that can promote the recovery of HP and Magic Power; after consumption, one can obtain the Huichun buff yiji, which lasts for ten minutes.

{Note: While the Living Essence Fluid is in effect, consuming it multiple times provides no stacking or additional effects. }

After a brief discussion, Zhu Zhiquan and the others split the resources they had scammed equally with Ling Xi and her husband.

Soon, the group arrived at the Black Mouth Blade Regiment's First Island, and from far away, Zhu Zhiquan was shocked, because he saw a behemoth.

At this time, a simple fortress had been erected on the edges of the various bridges, the main body primarily made of wood, with individual locations reinforced with metal; the city wall was approximately 4 meters high.

Ling Xi lifted a crack in the curtain and judged: "But this workmanship should have been built by the Black Mouth Blade Regiment organizing players to do it by hand, truly awesome."

At this moment, Zhao Yuxin finally completed her research and boasted to everyone: "Everyone, look quickly, this is the plant I newly researched, it's called the Sticky Potato Mine.

This plant can stick to objects to detonate, and the alarm clock on it can adjust the explosion time. How about it? My research ability is impressive, right!"

One could see a potato with a clock in the middle, and a knob on the back to control the explosion time; it felt sticky when held in the hand.

Clap, clap, clap~

Zhu Zhiquan took the initiative to applaud, which gave Zhao Yuxin's vanity great satisfaction.

Afterwards, the three discussed for a while, and once the plan was set, Ling Xi teleported away.

Zhu Zhiquan drove the tricycle toward the fortress, while Zhao Yuxin used the Skinning Knife to dismantle the drained deer, obtaining one deer heart and 1500 grams of venison.

And the moment Ling Xi teleported away, Jiugong Cilang inside the fortress deactivated his talent effect, and fresh blood immediately spilled from his mouth. The surrounding maids immediately stepped forward to wipe the corners of his mouth, and some even rubbed their large waves against his face.

Jiugong Cilang called for Shangshan Wuzang and said to him: "Wuzang, I have already found the mole, and now this mole is rushing toward the fortress."

Shangshan Wuzang's eyes revealed a cold glint as he said: "Alright, I'll go kill them right now!"

"Wait!" Jiugong Cilang held Shangshan Wuzang back, "Don't be in a hurry, wait until they enter the fortress, then wipe them all out! Also, remember, the tricycle carrying the strange plant is the mole!"

"Hai!" Shangshan Wuzang took a group of subordinates to make preparations.

At this time, Zhu Zhiquan drank a vial of Living Essence Fluid and obtained the Huichun buff yiji.

"Congratulations on consuming the Living Essence Fluid and obtaining the Huichun buff yiji; while the buff is in effect, you will recover 1% of your HP and one point of Magic Power every minute."

Zhu Zhiquan drove the tricycle slowly into the fortress; upon entering, one could clearly hear the sounds of reinforcement happening everywhere. In front of them, tricycle after tricycle was lining up to undergo inspection, and Zhao Yuxin relied on her Bat Wing Ear to eavesdrop on the conversations of the people around.

"Seriously, why is there an inspection all of a sudden?"

"Who knows, anyway it has nothing to do with us."

"That makes sense, anyway this Black Mouth Blade Regiment has suffered successive defeats and will be defeated by the Black Lock Blade Regiment sooner or later, we just need to slack off."

………………

Zhao Yuxin listened to the surrounding players' discussion and felt something was strange, so she went to the side of the talking players and asked: "Um... excuse me, may I ask when this inspection started?"

The bald man saw that Zhao Yuxin was a girl daring to come over alone to scout for information and had crooked thoughts, but upon seeing the equipment on Zhao Yuxin's body and the weapon at her waist, he immediately dismissed the idea.

Therefore, the bald man said respectfully: "This inspection just started, what's wrong?"

"Okay, thank you." Zhao Yuxin quickly returned to the tricycle; Zhao Yuxin always felt that something bad was about to happen, so she hurriedly called over Zhu Zhiquan, who was in the driver's seat.

Zhu Zhiquan: "What's up?"

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry over and pray to the Guardian Goddess Statue," Zhao Yuxin said while pulling the Ice Cream Cactus.

Zhu Zhiquan silently came to the carriage and stood before the Guardian Goddess Statue looking at Zhao Yuxin, while Zhao Yuxin took out the Sticky Potato Mine she had just created as the tricycle gradually approached the fortress, as well as ten catties of mutton, and placed them before the Guardian Goddess Statue.

This prayer obtained nine hundred energy; after calculating, Zhao Yuxin felt that she had half the energy and couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile.

Zhu Zhiquan always felt that Zhao Yuxin was being inexplicable, but to prevent Zhao Yuxin from getting angry, he still silently returned to the driver's seat to drive the tricycle.

After doing all this, there was only one vehicle left in front of them; Zhao Yuxin let the Ice Cream Cactus hide in the corner and instructed it not to make a sound no matter what.

"Mm~" The Ice Cream Cactus nodded, its expression clearly showing it still didn't understand why its mother was doing this.

Just as Zhao Yuxin was preparing to hide the unusual features of her other plants, a group of fully armed players pulled back the curtain.

When they saw many strange and peculiar plants, they immediately shouted: "Lord Shangshan Wuzang, we have discovered a player with strange plants over here!"

Upon hearing this, Shangshan Wuzang immediately gave the order: "Kill!"

"Hai!" Immediately, these players prepared to draw their weapons to kill Zhu Zhiquan and the others.
