Chapter 316 A bumper harvest and an unexpected surprise!


    As if stimulated by this scene, Sha Jingjing''s eyes changed slightly.


    Although she, Feiya and others are all Xia En''s subordinates, the relationship between the two parties is not that close, but there are some gaps.


    It''s like two factions under one company.


    Sha Jingjing is from the [Rhine] line, while Fei Ya and others are the orthodox direct descendants of the [Black Swan].


    It is definitely not hostile, but it is inevitable that the idea of ????"not wanting to compare differences" will arise, which can be regarded as a beneficial competition model.


    So Sha Jingjing took the initiative to speak.


    "Lord Holy Son, leave that fire fox to me."


    Before she finished speaking, she picked up her long bow.


    The dark yellow secret power gradually accumulates on the arrow, giving people the feeling that the arrow will hit it no matter what.


    This is an ancient skill mastered by Sha Jingjing, which gives bows and arrows a "sure hit" effect.


    At this time, the target she was aiming at was the fire fox that breathed fire at the [Bloodthirsty Thorns].


    Compared with the giant white elephant standing still, this fire fox''s movements are extremely flexible and agile.


    It was like a jumping flame elf, moving around at the front of the beast tide, and it was difficult to catch its figure with the eyes.


    Precisely because of its petite size and rapid speed, even Fei Ya and the two of them had difficulty catching up with it in the tide of beasts.


    suddenly.


    As if aware of the hidden danger, the soft hair on Fire Fox''s body exploded instantly.


    It spread its legs, its speed surged again, and it dodged crazily in the tide of beasts, trying to avoid the fatal murderous intention.


    However, all these actions are in vain!


    As Sha Jingjing loosened the bowstring in her hand, the dark yellow arrow flew out suddenly.


    Its flight trajectory is completely different from ordinary arrows, as if it flies directly across space.


    One second it was near the city wall, and the next second it appeared beside the fire fox, shooting into the body of the beast king at a tricky angle.


    There was a "chi" sound, and blood spattered.


    Firefox''s body stiffened suddenly, and then let out a sharp cry of pain.


    But this arrow obviously can''t really kill it.


    then…


    The second, third...and even the fifth long dark yellow arrow came to the fire fox one after another like chasing the stars and chasing the moon.


    It penetrated the Fire Fox''s body from all directions and turned it into a little hedgehog.


    Immediately, surging secret power erupted from the arrow, destroying the flesh and blood inside the fire fox wantonly.


    This strange beast finally couldn''t bear the torture and died completely after spitting out a mouthful of blood.


    After shooting these five life-threatening arrows in one breath, Sha Jingjing''s little face was also white as snow. She couldn''t help but breathe heavily, and her hands holding the bow were trembling slightly.


    Obviously, this kind of output method also puts a lot of burden on Sha Jingjing.


    However, even though Sha Jingjing was so tired, she still looked at Xia En with bright eyes.


    The meaning in that look is clearly saying "Come on, praise me! Come on, praise me!"


    Xia En saw Sha Jingjing''s thoughts at a glance, so he reached out to touch the top of her head and praised her at the same time.


    "Well done, you did a great job."


    "hey-hey…"


    Sha Jingjing smiled with enjoyment, and her tail behind her swung like a propeller.


    Her loyal dog nature has become more and more obvious.


    However, Xia En''s gesture of reaching out and touching his head was just out of habit - just like petting the big dog at home, it had no special meaning.


    But at the same time, a slightly resentful look came from behind Xia En.


    Who is it if not Joey?


    Xia En''s arm suddenly stiffened.


    But then I thought about it, he didn''t do anything bad. He was just petting his own big dog. What was there to panic about?


    Even so, Xia En calmly retracted his hand.


    Then, Joey spoke.


    "Mr. Captain, I''m going to take action too."


    After saying that, a serious look appeared on Joey''s pretty face, and he began to chant a slightly lengthy spell.


    Different from the previous auxiliary spells, this magical spell is particularly obscure and difficult to understand, and the huge secret power gathers around the girl like a storm.


    Her long silver-white hair moved automatically without wind, showing a mithril-like texture in the sunlight.


    Those ruby-like pupils even flashed with a faint blue halo.


    The next moment.


    A soft drink came from Joey''s mouth.


    The surging secret power suddenly poured out.


    The target is not the tide of beasts below, but the ground beneath the beasts'' feet.


    boom!


    A large area of ??soil collapsed with a crash, and the beasts'' bodies fell uncontrollably into the pit.


    Just one fall caused many beasts to be seriously injured, making it difficult for them to get up again.


    Not only that, the soil in the pit quickly softened into something like a swamp.


    The beasts lost most of their ability to move just by stepping on it.


    The more you struggle, the deeper you sink.


    This is the chain magic of [Subterranean Spell] plus [Swamp Spell].


    Simply speaking, these two spells themselves are not particularly high-level magic.


    But when used together, especially on the battlefield where the beast tide is attacking at this time, it has an unexpected effect.


    And the scene was extremely spectacular, as almost one-third of the beast tide was affected by these two magics.


    The roars and wails of the ferocious beasts suddenly echoed through the sky.


    The speed of the entire beast wave slowed down instantly.


    In fact, with Joey''s current ability, it is not impossible to cast more lethal magic.


    But the girl knew very well that right now, it was more important to control their progress than to kill the ferocious beasts, so as not to cause an impact on [Rhine City].


    Apparently, Joey''s strategy worked!


    However, the scope of these two spells is so wide, and it also puts a huge burden on her.


    Therefore, after the spell was cast, Joey''s face immediately turned white, his body swayed, and he was about to fall backwards.


    Fortunately, Xia En had quick eyesight and quick hands, and immediately stepped forward to support Joey.


    Joey fell into Xia En''s arms, still on his shoulders, and glanced provocatively at Sha Jingjing next to him.


    Sha Jingjing was a little worried about her at first, but when she saw her provocative eyes, she suddenly woke up.


    Well, it turns out she had all planned it!


    Deliberately draining all his magic power, he fell so weak into the arms of the Holy Son!


    ''hateful! Despicable stranger! ’


    Sha Jingjing''s eyes widened. She was just a little loyal, not stupid!


    However, Sha Jingjing could not think of a way to expose Joey.


    Moreover, no matter what Joy was thinking, judging from the results, she did use up her secret power, which in exchange for the restricted movement of many beasts, protected [Rhine City] in disguise.


    If anything, Sha Jingjing would have to thank her!


    Because of this, Sha Jingjing could only stare at Joey angrily, but couldn''t say a word.


    Of course, Xia En didn''t know about the potential intrigue between the two women, so he just praised her sincerely.


    "Joy, you did a great job, thank you for your hard work."


    But at this time, Joey whispered: "That, I want too..."


    "What do you want?" Xia En was stunned, not understanding the girl''s intention.


    But after Joey pointed to the top of his head, he suddenly realized.


    It turned out to be a head-touch!


    After thinking about this clearly, Xia En couldn''t help but smile bitterly.


    You are not a big dog of the [Yongyue Tribe], why are you obsessed with touching your head?


    However, Joey''s requirements are tricky, but they are actually very satisfying.


    Shane touched Joey''s little head while looking down the city wall.


    In fact, due to the chain reaction of this plan [Subterranean Technique] and [Swamp Technique], the situation has basically been decided.


    Although the ferocious beasts are still resisting fiercely, they are now like beached whales or tigers in cages.


    The threat has been greatly reduced.


    As long as you patiently remove their claws and eliminate their vitality, [Rhine City] can completely swallow this beast tide.


    Xia En knew from the beginning that this beast tide was not only a crisis, but also a great opportunity.


    From the corpse of such a strange beast, I don’t know how much flesh and blood can be cut off, and how many bones and scales can be obtained.


    The former is an important food reserve, while the latter are all good materials.


    Whether it is for personal use or sold to the Seven Seas for money, it can bring great benefits to [Rhine City].


    And in the beast tide, there must be many beasts that can survive.


    Xia En plans to exchange some of the alien species for merit in the Federation, and the remaining part can be raised in [Rhine City] first.


    Use contracts, magic and other means to help them become [Rhine City].


    In the future, whether it is to prepare them [Rhine City], officially convert them into regular workers, or domesticate them into livestock that lay eggs and produce milk, these are all things that can be considered.


    It also happens to solve the problem of insufficient mid-to-high-end combat power in [Rhine Secret Realm].


    It can be said that as long as it eats this wave of beasts, [Rhine City] will definitely usher in a rapid development period.


    An inappropriate metaphor.


    In fantasy novels, a tide of beasts is like a catastrophe from the [Rhine Secret Realm].


    If you can''t resist it, everything will come to an end.


    But if you get through it, you can actually get a lot of benefits from it.


    At this time, the battle between Fei Ya and An continued.


    A ferocious beast covered in armor lowered its head and charged towards the two men fiercely.


    Fei Ya was lifted up by the wind, soaring lightly into the air. The glove in her hand transformed into a long knife. With a single stab, it went straight into the armored beast''s vitals, reaching as deep as the handle.


    He ran with the armored beast for a while, then jumped towards another ferocious beast.


    The armored beast ran for hundreds of meters, minding its own business, when suddenly its legs gave way and it fell to the ground.


    Feiya''s fighting style is completely different from before, becoming more agile and agile.


    All ferocious beasts that come into contact with him will fall to the ground after a while - this is another [Holy Bloodborn] talent that he has awakened.


    Watching Feiya''s battle is like enjoying a song and dance, which is indescribably pleasing to the eye.


    Ann on the other side took another route.


    Open and close, simple and rough.


    The big sword swung horizontally in the tide of beasts, sweeping down one piece, and then swung it horizontally, sweeping down another group...


    Seeing the swamps all over the ground and the results of Fei Ya''s battle, Xia En felt quite emotional and happy.


    It turned out that without even realizing it, his crew had grown to such an extent that everyone had become a capable person.


    You don''t even need to take action yourself, you can basically survive this beast crisis.


    However, at this moment.


    In the tide of beasts, a shocking roar suddenly sounded.


    "roar!!"


    A giant creature that looked like a wild boar stood out from the chaotic tide of beasts.


    Although this wild boar looks like a living thing, it is very different from other ferocious beasts.


    Its body is silver-white, and both its hair and skin give people a texture closer to stone than flesh.


    It''s like a strange creature made of silver and white stones.


    Moreover, as the stone pig moved, the mud under its feet miraculously returned to its normal state.


    There seemed to be an invisible area surrounding the silver-white stone pig, and it was still expanding as it moved.


    It’s like a special field!


    The appearance of this stone pig allowed the ferocious beasts trapped in the quagmire to regain a certain degree of mobility and have a tendency to charge again.


    Seeing this scene, Xia En''s expression changed slightly.


    "Wait...what is that?"


    Although he had never seen a similar creature in the [Rhine Secret Realm], he noticed a very familiar aura of mysterious power from the silver-white stone pig.


    After carefully sensing it for a moment, Xia En showed a surprised expression.


    "Is this breath [Rhinestone]?"


    To be more precise, it is the breath of [Rhinestone Essence]!


    In other words, this entire silver-white stone pig is made of [Rhinestone Essence]?


    Thinking of this, Xia En''s eyes suddenly lit up, and there was a bit of fire in his eyes.


    Good guy, there is such a treasure in [Rhine Secret Realm]?


    You know, the current sales volume of [Rhinestone] in the Federation is so good that even Xia En is amazed.


    In particular, the higher-quality [Rhinestone Essence] has become a hot commodity that is in short supply. Whether it is in the Federation Navy or the [Chamber of Commerce Alliance], it is extremely popular.


    Ms. Sophie, who was in charge of the contact, urged me several times to ask if there was more inventory.


    If Xia En hadn''t been blinded by greed, he might have wanted to sell the stone essence used to build [Rhine City].


    It can also be seen from this.


    Even in the [Rhine Secret Realm], [Rhinestone Essence] is a relatively scarce resource.


    And now, there is actually such a huge stone pig made entirely of [Rhinestone Essence]. How can this not make Xia En excited?


    On the side, Sha Jingjing suddenly realized.


    "I remember that some time ago, there were traces of animal activity in the mine where [rhinestone] was excavated."


    "So it turns out that this [Rhinestone Essence] is a naturally formed magical creature?"


    "[Rhine Secret Realm] is really magical..."


    at the same time.


    A line of text flashed across Shane''s panel.


    [Exploration degree +0.8%! 】


    A realization arose in Xia En''s heart. It was like discovering some important and unique species, which caused a change in the [Exploration Degree].


    Thinking of this, Xia En no longer hesitated, stepped on the ground hard, jumped up high, and headed straight for the silver-white stone pig.


    In mid-air, he activated the effect of [Giant Wristwheel].


    Amidst the roar of Qi and blood, Xia En''s body continued to expand and expand.


    boom-


    With an earth-shattering vibration, a majestic giant fell in front of the stone pig.
