Chapter 174

~9 min read 1,630 words

The biggest characteristic of the Earth Holy Hammer is that it has been blessed, and people who haven't been recognized can't lift it. If Anthony just made a hammer casually, but it didn't even have the most basic characteristics, then it wouldn't be called a forgery.

A magic array had long been engraved in the hammer. As long as holy light was input, it would produce a powerful suction force, adsorbing to the earth, forging the illusion that it couldn't be lifted.

The thicker the holy light poured in, the stronger and more lasting the suction force. This is also the reason why Ang needs to operate it. In this world, besides the gods of light, whose holy light can be thicker than his?

The fair-skinned clerk was already speechless. After being shocked for a while, she turned and ran. Not long after, the local person in charge of the mercenary guild, high-level personnel, person in charge of armed forces, etc., all arrived.

Besides that, there were high-level personnel from major top mercenary groups watching, or independent top mercenaries. Some low-level mercenaries had already been squeezed out of the circle.

To prevent someone from seeing through his soul armor, Ang had already sacrificed holy light to wrap his body. This wasn't being overly nervous. There are all kinds of people in the mercenary industry, and many inexplicable abilities. It's not strange to see through soul armor.

But seeing through the soul armor and penetrating the holy light is relatively difficult, because these are two almost opposite power attributes. It's hard for anyone to have the ability to restrain both power attributes.

Sure enough, not long after he sacrificed the holy light, he immediately sensed several forces quietly projecting onto him. Scorched by the holy light, they hurriedly shrank back.

Ang looked along that force and saw the dark elf from before, a mysterious person wrapped in a cloak, and an old man with a weathered face but a solemn expression.

Seeing Ang look over, the dark elf's expression shook, he shrank his neck, and shrank into the crowd in horror.

The cloaked person also shook all over and lowered his head.

Only the old man with a solemn expression stroked his chest and saluted, then turned and left.

Obviously, they didn't expect Ang to discover their observation so keenly, and even more accurately find them. This is like a thief preparing to reach into your pocket, but looking up and finding you have been staring at him, caught in the act.

Other experts also noticed this silent change and immediately put away their little thoughts. Those who dared to probe first on such an occasion were all confident in their abilities, but now they were all caught.

Especially that old man, someone recognized him, a strong man known as the Eye of God, actually scared away?

Someone whispered: "It's been many years since anyone completed a super mission. The Earth Holy Hammer should be the simplest one in years. The difficulty mainly depends on who can lift it. I didn't expect someone could really lift it."

"Not really, strong men at the Sword Saint level can still lift it by brute force. It mainly depends on whether the heir of the Heishan Duchy has the ability to lift it. If he can lift it, it means he has obtained the recognition of the Earth Holy Hammer and automatically obtained the inheritance right of the Heishan Duchy."

"Didn't the royal family of the Heishan Duchy die out?"

"Did you forget that illegitimate child? He's in our Luolan City. Maybe he has already received the news of the Earth Holy Hammer and is rushing here."

As soon as the words were finished, the main person arrived. A down-and-out young man shouted excitedly: "Holy Hammer, my Earth Holy Hammer, our family's Holy Hammer, let me pass, let me pass."

Everyone made a path. The young man excitedly wanted to pounce on the Holy Hammer, but was stopped by the guild: "We still need to verify the authenticity of the Holy Hammer, please don't approach."

The young man asked excitedly: "The Earth Holy Hammer is the holy object of our Heishan Duchy. If the verification is true, please return it to me."

The high-level members of the guild looked at each other. After a while, the local person in charge of the guild, President Kaiqi, said: "Heishan, uh, although you call yourself Heishan, the guild has no intention of interfering in your family's affairs. After verifying the authenticity, the item will be handed over to the bounty person. This mission was initiated by the temporary administrator of the Heishan Duchy. At that time, the Holy Hammer will be handed over to him."

"Big cousin!? No, you can't hand over the holy object to him. He is not a member of the Heishan family. This is usurpation!" Heishan shouted loudly.

President Kaiqi smiled politely and didn't answer.

After some inspection, the guild's appraiser concluded: "President, it's true."

Heishan immediately said: "No, you haven't seen the Earth Holy Hammer. What you say doesn't count. I have seen the Holy Hammer. My father took me to see the Holy Hammer many times. Let me see."

President Kaiqi thought for a while, nodded to everyone, and gave up his position.

Heishan immediately pounced to the side of the Holy Hammer, grasped the hammer handle with both hands, and before everyone could react, lifted the Earth Holy Hammer. The Holy Hammer shone brightly.

"Hahaha, it's true, it's the real Earth Holy Hammer. It recognized me, it finally recognized me, I am the heir of the Heishan Duchy!" Heishan shouted loudly, and the people watching around were in an uproar.

Silently watching this, Nai Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si finally noticed something wrong and muttered: "This Heishan illegitimate child, could it be arranged by Anthony?"

Heishan put down the Earth Holy Hammer. Others went to lift it, but still couldn't lift it, once again confirming the fact that Heishan was recognized by the Holy Hammer.

Of course, it wasn't that no one could lift it. Strong men with strength above Sword Saint could still lift the Holy Hammer by brute force, and then quickly wrap it in the shroud.

"Go! Follow me to the Heishan Duchy. I can lift the Holy Hammer, I am the heir to the Duke's title, follow me to take back the lost title, you are all heroes."

Heishan turned around and shouted loudly at the mercenaries behind him. Several mercenaries immediately stood out: "We support you."

Whoosh, a large group of supporters followed Heishan and left the guild lobby.

Nai Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si cursed: "Kubada, it's all arranged. After this scene is performed, this Heishan has a legitimate excuse to take back the title. Those supporters of his must also be arranged by Anthony. As long as he takes back the title, he can logically get the Earth Holy Hammer. At that time, it doesn't matter if the Holy Hammer is true or false, no one will check it again."

A thousand-year-old politician, the depth of his calculation, made even a ten-thousand-year-old prophet like Nai Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si a bit scared. The bug plague in the Heishan Duchy was obviously sudden. In such a short time, he made a plan to support his own people and mix sand into the Western Diocese.

The Heishan Duchy is nominally independent, but it also belongs to the sphere of influence of the Western Diocese. As long as Anthony's people can sit in the position of Duke, they can immediately gain a powerful supporter in the Western Diocese.

I'm afraid the Andong Cavalry Regiment, which was trapped in the city and needed Ang to send grain, was also part of the plan.

Nai Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si was scared, but Ang wasn't, because he couldn't understand. After the messy people left, President Kaiqi walked over and said politely: "This friend, please this way."

Coming to an independent reception room, President Kaiqi personally served some things and asked politely: "This friend, is it convenient to reveal your name or code name?"

Ang sat there, and Nai Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si answered. After all, his way of speaking one word at a time could make many people anxious to death.

Nai Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si asked curiously: "Can I set a code name?" The voice came from Ang's body. Because of the soul armor, it was like Ang himself speaking.

But after all, it was different from real speaking. President Kaiqi could hear it, but didn't express anything, but said: "Of course you can. Our mercenary guild respects everyone's privacy. Real names or code names are both fine, but code names cannot be bound to identity. If things are lost, they are gone and cannot be reissued."

"Oh, then set a code name, Vegetable Farmer."

"Vegetable Farmer? Are you sure?" Kaiqi asked puzzledly.

"Yes, just call it that," Nai Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si said affirmatively. There is no code name that can be more appropriate for Ang than this.

"Uh, the name is taken. Someone already used it. How about adding one, two, three at the end?"

"No, change it to Planting Vegetable Farmer. Still taken? Planting Vegetable Head? Vegetable Head? Vegetable Bone, Vegetable Bone can be used, right? Then this one, don't change it."

After a difficult time setting the code name, President Kaiqi presented the things on the tray one by one: "This stack is 100 anonymous magic crystal vouchers, this one is your super mercenary ring, with which you can get the highest support from the mercenary guild, including intelligence, materials, transportation, personnel, etc., this is..."
