Banished to Another World Chapter 389

Chapter 389: The Nine Cities Challenge Rules

On the one hand, it's a little serious, on the other hand, it's not very . . . Well, the serious side is not serious enough .

With Yuan Zhan in the room, the three men randomly found an open space and he automatically grew three chairs and a stone table on the ground .

Xiao Hei brought the little Iron-back dragon cub, who had grown up a lot, to the stone table happily, with a few pans of melons and fruits on his head and fresh-roasted kebabs .

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu likes Xiao Hei, and when he saw him he would be dragging him into his arms, when he knew he would be having his cheeks pinched, Xiao Hei moved quickly and got up, riding on a small Iron-Back cub back, boom and running to the opposite side .

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu laughed and scolded the pup, he grabbed the kettle out of his apprentice, poured a glass of water, and drank and wiped his mouth . “What did Tucheng-Earth City and Yincheng-Sound City say? Tell me first . "

Yan Mo spoke in detail what She-Dan and Lamo-Na had proposed .

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu sneered . “None of them are anything good . They didn't say everything . If I was not here, you'll probably be deceived! Hum, it's so coincidental that when I went out, I ran over coming back . Do you believe that there are no spies on either side of the tribe?”

Yuan Zhan knows well that . "Our tribe has developed too fast in recent years, and the people we take in are not checked . There are many slaves sent by other forces on their own initiative . It's strange that there will be no spies . But according to the time they came, the spies were either very low-ranking or marginal . ”

"Just count yourself lucky . " The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu and Yan Mo are similar in some respects, both of them are a little biased towards research and are not very interested in management and power .

"Shifu, why do you say the two city envoys deceive us? What didn’t they say?”  Yan Mo grabbed the barbecue dish and poured some hot soup to make The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu drink soup first and then eat meat .

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu muttered, but he still drank the hot soup first and blew his mouth by saying that it’s hot . Yan Mo ignored him, although the old man had a good spirit, but after all, there was no concept of eating at intervals at all . At that time, the old man said that he did not see remember it so he eats when he is hungry, he often had gone hungry, instead of having no food he still stood by saying he could not remember to eat .

Yan Mo watched the Winged Yingzhao sweating all over, and knew that the Curse-Witch Zhou Wu may have rushed back all the way . The Winged Yingzhao has been taken good care of, and he naturally serves only Shifu .

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu enjoyed the service of a good disciple . His eyes were all smiling and his mouth was still muttering .

Yuan Zhan again reminded the Curse-Witch Zhou Wu that his apprentice's question had not yet been answered .

"It's not surprising how these two cities want to use you . Many new forces have been deceived like this in the past, but few of them are like the Jiu Yuan . Most of them will be delighted and dance crazily if they can give a lower city status . But those new forces don't know . Often, the forces that join a certain city will be taken to the Nine Cities gathering to shore up the power of the upper city . ”

"What do you say?”

"That little Lamo-Na girl told you that the Nine Great Cities, except Wucheng-City of Witches, all the other eight cities will take part in the competition and then decide the ranking by the results of the competition, right?”

Yan Mo nodded .

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu hummed, "First of all, the girl said something wrong .  Wucheng-City of Witches will also take part in the competition . Otherwise, how can Wucheng-City of Witches maintain her detached status? But Wucheng- City of Witches performs very well every time . The other eight cities are reluctant to rank Wucheng- City of Witches, which is why many forces call Wucheng- City of the original holy city . ”

"Understand, this is you too strong, we cannot play with you, simply divide you out, and do not play with you . But we can't ignore you, so we have to make a good name to hold you . "

"Secondly, since it's a competition, we have to pay the corresponding price, because it's the highest competition between cities . Of course, it's impossible to satisfy others with only a little bit of crystal and slaves . So we usually pay the price of at least one lower city or even a middle city, and the forces we bring out are naturally the best that we have just got, and it's not painful to lose them . Finally, the more capable the city is, the more cities it will get . The worst of all, of course, is the greater the loss . Considering the location of the Nine Cities, in order to facilitate the rule of the party, the eight cities will have another exchange of power . "

Yuan Zhan had a grin on his face and a gloomy tone . "So Tucheng-Earth City and Yincheng-Sound City can give us a middle city location at random, with many benefits . "

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu grabbed the kebab and nodded as he gnawed . "Yes, if you lose, you'll have to look at the face of another city who beaten the upper city that owns you . Even if they can go a step further in the party test, they can also go back to pick you up . What are the conditions to be agreed first? As long as their strength is enough to suppress you, you become their affiliate . How do they want to change the conditions? No, they'll still hit you if you don’t like it . "

Yan Mo murmured, "If Tucheng-Earth City can estimate the strength of Zhan, it probably hopes that Zhan can help them to participate in the competition, but also hopes that the Jiu Yuan will be used as a lottery entree . If Zhan can make them perform better and better, if not, they can also give you to their former enemies to other cities to beat you into submission . If the Jiu Yuan is unwilling to be under that city, he is bound to make a scene with that city .  Tucheng-Earth City just needs to watch the bustle . As for Yincheng-Sound City . . . "

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu answered, "It's a little strange that Yincheng-Sound City will find you, after all, Yincheng-Sound City is separated and far from the Jiu Yuan .  Huocheng-Fire City didn't find you, but they did, uh . . . Have you ever asked Lamo-Ling?”

"Yes, he said that Lamo-Na was ambitious and that Her Highness had made it clear to Zhan that she wanted to be Queen . "

"It seems that the Jiu Yuan has something that Her Highness wants . " The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu dropped the bamboo stick and mentioned one thing: "Her Highness almost died when she was a child . The Priest of Yincheng-Sound City couldn't cure her . Finally, their High Priest Lan-Yin sent her to Wucheng-City of Witches . I remember that Fat-Elephant Si Fei Xiang talked to the little girl . "

The Fat-Elephant Si Fei Xiang? Yan Mo flashed in his mind, "Is it the prophesying Wucheng-City of Witches High Priest?”

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu nodded . "I don't know what the Fat-Elephant Si Fei Xiang said to her, but the little girl did it at a risk of offending me, concealed another important thing from The Nine Cities gathering, and adding the Jiu Yuan to the Yincheng-Sound City or it could be that there is something in Jiu Yuan than that is very important to her . "

After the Curse-Witch Zhou Wu's analysis, the real meaning of Tucheng-Earth City and Yincheng-Sound City was seen instantly like slaves stripped of their clothes, and there was nothing covering in front of them .

Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan have eye contact . In fact, no matter what Tucheng-Earth City and Yincheng-Sound City's intentions are, they have never thought of becoming an affiliated city . But they have not yet given a clear answer to the two cities . Besides wanting to hear the Curse-Witch Zhou Wu's opinions, they do have the idea of fearing that the two cities will join hands in finding trouble for the Jiu Yuan .

As Lamo-Na said, can the Jiu Yuan be stronger than the Nine Cities? Let alone the Nine Cities, if a Tucheng-Earth City force alone goes wholly against them, and they will have a long headache .

"Shifu, if we reject Tucheng-Earth City and Yincheng-Sound City . . . "

"No problem rejecting them, but then you have to go to the Nine Cities challenge party . "

"Why? What happens if you don't participate?” Yuan Zhan asked .

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu rolled his eyes . "The Jiu Yuan has fallen into the eyes of Tucheng-Earth City, Huocheng-Fire City and Yincheng-Sound City . The other six cities are likely to receive all kinds of news about the Jiu Yuan . If Tucheng-Earth City Priest and Princess Yincheng-Sound City personally invite us to join their strength, we can refuse to do so . Talking about Tucheng-Earth City and Yincheng-Sound City, other cities will not allow us to continue to grow . To put it bluntly, no one wants to go to add another strong city . ”

Yan Mo seems to understand something, so "The Nine Cities gathers in ten years together, not twenty, thirty years or longer, because they simply don't want to give other cities some growth time . "

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu pointed at him with his oily finger . "Yes, no matter how powerful a city can grow in ten years, many of them will be absorbed by a city construction force before they are too large . The Jiu Yuan is a special case . I haven't seen a tribe rise so fast for at least a hundred years since I can remember . ”

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu knew that his beloved disciple had secrets, but he was a good Shifu, and he did not tell his disciples all the secrets . Yan Mo's mystery and magic were only a secret when his disciples were really loved by the gods .

Yan Mo frowned . “Shifu, we don't want to join any upper city forces, but we don't want to go upper city to deal with us . What should we do? What do you mean by going to The Nine Cities gathering?”

"That's what the two cities are hiding from you, and that's the only life line of the Jiu Yuan . "

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu suddenly turned his face down . "Don't think I'm joking . If you don't go to the Nine Cities party this time, the Jiu Yuan will really be in trouble . Red salt, the Mer-people, dwarfs, paper and porcelain, which are already enough to cause greed of other powerful forces, besides, we have better drugs and bone objects than other forces . If these do not attract the cover of other forces, don't forget that the Jiu Yuan also has the most lethal training methods for warriors of force and a huge proportion of blood warrior, which for the Nine Great Cities, including Wucheng-City of Witches, will be heart-beating treasure!”

Yan Mo wiped his sweat, thinking that his old man was probably afraid of them hearing the Fruit of Witchcraft . Although the Curse-Witch Zhou Wu's powerful spiritual barrier exists, other people really want to eavesdrop on nine out of ten they can, but just in case .

Yuan Zhan reached out and touched his stomach . A small bag bulged up against his palm . Yuan Zhan gently rubbed it .

Yan Mo: Is it interesting to have a father-son relationship across my belly?

Yuan Zhan and Wu Guo: Interesting!

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu saw two distracted, grabbed the fruit on the plate and threw it at them .

"You listen to me, The Nine Cities’ top player are not as brilliant as in the Three Cities era, but after thousands of years of development, they are not as thick as you can imagine . This time you are going to Wucheng-City of Witches to attend the Nine Cities gathering . You must take the next place as a challenger . Only in this way can the Jiu Yuan survive and develop . ”

"Take the place?”  The two men spoke in unison . Yan Mo then asked, "is it possible that the owner of the Nine Great Cities to be changed?”

"It's no problem to swallow up all the forces that go up to upper city as long as you have enough strength, as long as you can get the five or more cities in the Nine Cities to agree . " Next, The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu told the two of them an important decision on the new power arrangement at the Nine Cities gathering .

"You can say that the Nine Cities are cunning or that they want to preserve their strength . From the day the Three Cities became the Nine Cities to avoid major wars, The Nine Cities laid down a rule that if there were very powerful blood warriors and their forces and they were unwilling to submit to any of the forces they fell to, they would have to accept the challenge of forces who wanted them to submit . The challenge was the same as the Nine Cities test . If they lost, they would have to submit to each other and who wins can replace the force that challenged him to the city . Similarly, the new forces can challenge one of his favorite cities . ”

Yuan Zhan, in such a way, with bright eyes, this challenge rule is just right for him . If anyone really uses the power of the city to deal with the Jiu Yuan, even if he can kill all the aggressors, the Jiu Yuan will not be destroyed or there be revenge .

"Fair enough . " Yan Mo said sincerely .

In this jungle world, such a challenge system has been regarded as an opportunity for the strong to give a chance for the weak . Otherwise, The Nine Cities will be bossier, take charge of their blood warriors, The Nine Cities together, and the group wheel will also turn the weak to death, so that the most powerful warriors will be knocked down, and his forces and sites will be carved up with The Nine Cities .

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu listened to his apprentices’ comments, but laughed sarcastically . “It's not their kindness . Without Wucheng-City of Witches' repression and the old rule of challenge, everyone in the other eight cities would like to take advantage of it a little more . Believe it or not, if I wasn't in the Jiu Yuan, the development of the Jiu Yuan in the past five years would never be so smooth . ”

Yuan Zhan and Yan Mo have no refutation . Barbaric land is remote and barren enough, but they have already got into contact with the Three Cities forces of Tucheng-Earth City, Huocheng-Fire City and Yincheng- Sound City .   In the past five years, Tucheng-Earth City has been occupied with other things, and if the other two cities really want to find trouble for them, it is not difficult . But in the past five years, neither city has reached out .

Before they did not know the strength of Yuan Zhan, of course, they were not afraid of the Jiu Yuan . They were just afraid of the Curse-Witch Zhou Wu .

"Shifu, it's good to have your old man here . " Yan Mo flattered him by filling Shifu with water and fanning him .

The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu proudly raised his head . Although the guardian warriors of his apprentices and apprentices were very strong, his Shifu was also very important .

Yuan Zhan looked at this young and old man with a smile in his eyes .

"I was going to tell you about the Nine Cities gathering when I came back this time, but I didn't expect someone came to deceive you first . The Nine Cities Challenger, who challenged the rules must not be attached to any one of the cities, otherwise he would not be able to challenge and accept the challenge . Usually, Wucheng-City of Witches will send people to pick up the new powers before the Nine Cities gathering, but they will not be long in advance . In order to facilitate the other eight cities to recruit new powers, Wucheng-City of Witches will not receive people to the gathering place until 10 days before the beginning of the gathering .

Yan Mo wondered, "How does Wucheng - City of Witches know where there are new forces? Can you find it accurately?"

"That's Wucheng-City of Witches . If it's not strong and mysterious enough, how can it be called the Holy City by the forces of the cities?”  The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu's expression and voice are full of a kind of pride from within for Wucheng-City of Witches, even if he is a little disgusted with her now .

After that, he don't know whether to watch the Curse-Witch Zhou Wu come back, She-Dan and Lamo-Na felt that it's impossible to absorb the Jiu Yuan, neither of them lobbied Yuan Zhan anymore, but proposed to have a good visit to the Jiu Yuan city .

Yuan Zhan was very stingy . He only opened the trading streets and farmland outside the city . Later, on Yan Mo's proposal, he added a hospital . None of the other important places, such as schools, barracks, farms, training camps and production workshops, were to be seen by outsiders .

She-Dan and Lamo-Na are interested in the Mer-people and the dwarfs and want to establish diplomatic relations with them . Unfortunately, the Mer-people and the dwarfs only identify the Jiu Yuan people as two important figures in the city, not other birds . Lamo-Na is a girl because she is good-looking, and the Mer-people and the dwarfs have a good attitude towards her . There is only one word to describe She-Dan: Cold and Indifference .

The more Miao Xiang knows about the Jiu Yuan, the less she wants to go back to Tucheng-Earth City . She used to look at Yuan Zhan and only thought that his figure and appearance were threatening and that people dare not look straight at him . Now, she only thinks that men should be that strong . Even Yuan Zhan's not so handsome his face is full of masculinity .

Miao Xiang sometimes fantasizes about Yuan Zhan being with her, often thinking that, and her face will turn red .

Finally, She-Dan and Lamo-Na did not come to naught either . They initially negotiated with the Jiu Yuan the volume of paper, ink, porcelain and red salt, and decided on the spot a batch . It was not empty-handed when it was the time to go back .

When the Tucheng-Earth City people were leaving, Princess Miao Xiang suddenly fell ill . She-Dan forced Miao Xiang to stay in the Jiu Yuan to recover from illness and said that he could ask the Jiu Yuan to bring Princess Miao Xiang to the Nine Cities party again . They were not foolish . The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu was there, and Yuan Zhan was likely to reach 10th rank . The Jiu Yuan would definitely join the Nine Cities gathering meeting .

Yuan Zhan was eager to pick up Princess Miao Xiang and throw her back to Tucheng-Earth City . Yan Mo stopped, laughing and telling She-Dan that the princess was respectable and could stay in the Jiu Yuan for self-cultivation, but she had to pay for all kinds of expenses, including accommodation, medical care and playtime .

She-Dan . . . A total of 10 8th rank yuan-crystal coins were paid for this purpose .

Twenty days later, Wucheng-City of Witches actually sent a greeting envoy .
