“What do we do? We can’t find the hammer, and the insect repelling powder is also quickly losing effect.”
“Come on, each of us take a gold brick, that’s enough to buy a lot of food.” Lily decisively said.
“Really wish we could take all these gold bricks.” The neurotic man said unwillingly.
“Don’t be greedy, it’s too heavy, the wings won’t be able to fly, take another one for Little A and others.”
They grabbed another handful, climbed onto the roof, lit a tinder, covered it with their hand, releasing and withdrawing it.
Before long, two pairs of wings swooped low overhead, the ropes hanging down were grabbed by them, and they flew away.
“Understanding what to let go, not being greedy, just too careless, so many of us didn’t notice.” Negris sarcastically said.
Rogge emerged, shaking a bag.
“Insect repelling powder? How did you get it?” Negris was surprised.
Rogge sniffed and said, “Too soft, I could strip their underwear off them and they wouldn’t even notice.”
“Let’s study it when we get back, let’s get out of here first, take the bounty.” Negris excitedly said.
“Didn’t those two guys mention it? The Earth Hammer is worth a million magic crystals, we take the fake hammer to the bounty collection, take the reward.”
“But, Anthony said, put it back where it was.” Ange shook his head.
“Well, alright, but it may not stay there for long in this situation. Maybe other bounty hunters will get the idea of going after the hammer by then, and after we’re gone, the fake hammer might get taken by someone else. If those people don’t go to collect the bounty, and the hammer disappears, ask Anthony again, tell him the situation, he’s likely to change his mind.”
Ange contacted Anthony using soul contact, and after a while, he said, “He agrees, turn in the bounty.”
Negris had a face that said he knew it all along, he snorted and said, “Of course he agrees. That guy, what he needs is the fake hammer to show up, not the hammer to go missing. In case someone really takes the fake hammer and hides it, his plan will be ruined.”
The group left the royal court and headed down the mountain. To avoid drawing attention, Little Angel took off its wings, Little Zombie also put away its soul armor, Ange put on a straw hat, Bronze Dragon was stuffed back into the Resting Palace, only the projection was cast onto Ange.
“The insect repellent powder really works. Sprinkle it on yourself, and the bugs stay far away.” They confirmed the effect of the insect repellent powder along the way, and kept the rest for analysis of its main components when they get back.
The Black Mountain Kingdom is a tiny country. Standing on Black Stone Mountain, you can see the whole country at a glance. To the northeast of the Black Stone Mountain is a city called East City, and to the southwest is a city called West City.
East City has fallen, leaving only West City holding out. They saw West City of the Black Mountain Kingdom from afar on the mountain, covered in a semi-transparent protective shield, encompassing the entire city.
From time to time, small clusters of insects hit the protective shield, being shaken into bug juice with a pop.
Near the south gate of West City, countless large bags were stacked on the side of the road, filled with the pungent insect repellent powder. Nearby were burning fires, with people occasionally pouring insect repellent powder into it, causing the dense smoke that keeps the insects away for dozens of meters.
With these bags of insect repellent powder and the fires, humans have cleared several safe zones, connected together to form a lifeline. From time to time, people escape here through the lifeline, and some supply convoys also use it to bring supplies into the city.
Ange and the others blended in with the fleeing people and approached the city gate.
The city’s defenders were conducting a search, patting everyone’s clothes very carefully to prevent people from smuggling bugs into the city.
A one-eyed soldier searched Ange first, didn’t find anything, because everything was stuffed into the Resting Palace, which left him somewhat dissatisfied, and he muttered quietly, “Broke fool.”
Then, his attention moved to Little Sky, his one eye lit up suddenly.
