Chapter 268: The Upright Knight and the Shy Girl
As Sosa walked along the road, he thought to himself:
“It’s really unexpected that Gru has such a talent under his command.
We have to find an opportunity to poach him from Gru.
The Queen has no shortage of fighting force, but what she lacks most are staff like Qi Ge.
If the Seven Pigeons had helped earlier, the Queen and I wouldn't be in such ."
Seeing that the time agreed with Qi Ge was approaching, Sousa quickened his pace.
Pushing open the door of the castle of Speed City, Sosa saw seven pigeons at a glance.
On the table in front of Qi Ge, there were a lot of purple bottles.
He held a bottle in each hand and flicked the lid off the purple bottle with his thumbs with great skill.
Qi Ge tilted his head back and gulped down the whole bottle.
He fired with both hands with extremely skillful movements, and drank the medicine as if it were water.
Sousa was speechless. The image of a man of both wisdom and courage suddenly collapsed in her mind.
"Qi Ge you...
This is the energy potion.
Are you running out of energy?"
There was something strange in Sosa's eyes, as she knew the effect of the energy potion.
Considering that Qi Ge had just gone to the Temple of Poseidon to find the mermaid, Sosa had a rough idea of what had happened.
When Qi Ge heard Sosa's voice, he raised his head and said, "Ah, Sosa, wait a moment. I will accompany you back to Dongzheng City in a while."
Qi Ge completely ignored Sousa's strange look and drank bottle of energy potion after bottle.
Woohoo, Bingyin is really my good daughter.
Bingyin, who is also an architect, naturally had no shortage of energy potions. When she heard that Qige needed them, she gave all her stock to Qige without hesitation.
It really saved Qige's life.
Pulled Qi Ge back from the near-death state of severe energy overdraft.
Don't you even try to make an excuse?
Sosa was shocked.
When noble men in Erathia are found to have overdrawn their energy, they will find all sorts of excuses.
Things like researching the art of making treasures, learning how to make war machinery, and so on.
But Qi Ge behaved so frankly.
Sousa even couldn't help but wonder if he had wronged Qi Ge.
After drinking 15 bottles of energy potions, Qi Ge finally got out of the state of energy overdraft.
He patted Sousa's shoulder naturally and urged:
"Let's go, the Poseidon Temple has been built. The power of the Poseidon has opened up the portal between Shensu City and Dongzheng City. We can teleport directly there."
"oh oh."
Sousa's thoughts were disrupted by Qi Ge for a moment, and he even forgot his purpose of winning over Qi Ge.
Along the way, Qi Ge repeatedly explained to Sousa.
"You must be careful. You must not say that it was my idea. You must tell your soldiers that it was your own idea.
They don't know the truth and think you're dead. You have to tell them that you contacted the Church of Poseidon and deliberately faked your death to get away."
"Uh-huh."
…
…
Qi Ge and Sosa returned to Dongzheng City through the portal.
The soldiers in Dongzheng City were in a state of tension and anxiety.
They all saw from Sea Apple's water mirror technique the scene of their general Sosa sacrificing himself, which made them heartbroken.
When Qi Ge and Sosa returned to the Eastern Expedition, a group of soldiers were clamoring to go to Mlak to see General Sosa for the last time.
When the soldiers saw the portal suddenly emit light and Qi Ge and Sousa walked out of the portal, they couldn't believe their eyes.
But the aura on Sousa that connected them to each other could not be faked.
This is their coach, their lord, their leader - the legendary hero Sosa.
"General Sosa!"
"Great, General Sosa, you are still alive."
"We all thought we would never see you again, General."
Some archers were extremely excited, some Crusaders shed tears secretly, and some spearmen held their spears tightly in disbelief .
Looking at the expressions of the soldiers around him, Qi Ge winked at Sousa frantically, suggesting that Sousa act according to the plan.
Sosa glared at Qi Ge and looked at the soldiers.
Just as she was about to speak, she looked away awkwardly, tangled her fingers in her long brown-gold hair, put her feet together, and stammered:
"I, I'm back. This was all planned.
I, I convinced the Church of Poseidon."
The seven pigeons remained silent.
Ah, this woman, she is blushing!
Is this the upright knight?
Even telling a lie can make your face blush.
If it were Adela, she could perform a drama for you on the spot without blushing or getting nervous.
Qi Ge knew that Sousa was unreliable, and fortunately he did not let Sousa act on his own at that time.
Seeing that the rosy red on Sosa's cheeks was about to drip with water, Qi Gelian stopped in front of Sosa and said loudly:
"General Sosa has returned! With victory and glory!
Soldiers!
Under the leadership of General Sosa, we have achieved a great victory!"
Sosa's soldiers were stunned for a moment before they reacted.
Oh! This is the president of Qi Ge who supported us before!
“General Sosa had already formed an alliance with the powerful Church of . She endured the stigma of treason, bore the humiliation, and completed a great revolution amidst the difficulties.
From today on, our East Expedition City and Mrak Territory will no longer be slaves of the church.
We, the humans of Erathia, live for ourselves!
These are all great achievements of General Sosa.”
Qi Ge took Sousa's hand, raised her hand high, and pressed her thumb hard on the palm of Sousa's hand.
Sousa blushed. For her, it was too exciting to take credit for someone else's work.
But Qi Ge kept tickling her palm with her thumb, and she had no choice but to say:
"Yes, that's what Qi Ge said.
I did all this.
Of course, Seven Pigeons also helped a lot.”
Bah! What do you mean it was all my fault? Are you admitting your guilt?
Qi Ge was so angry that he shouted:
"Let's cheer for General Sosa!"
"Long live General Sosa!"
Everyone: "Long live General Sosa!"
"General Sosa is invincible!"
Everyone: "General Sosa is invincible!"
…
Amid the cheers of Seven Pigeons and the soldiers, Sousa finally couldn't stand it anymore and hid behind Seven Pigeons, pressing his hot face against Seven Pigeons' cloak.
[System prompt: Sosa's favorability towards you +10, currently 60 (guilty in the heart)]
Sousa still doesn't have the nerve to do that.
If it were me, I would probably say on the spot: "Yes, this is me, that's right, keep praising me."
Why do I feel guilty about this?
Fortunately, someone finally showed up to rescue us.
Nathaniel rushed out from the group of soldiers and shouted excitedly:
"General Sosa, you are finally back!"
…
In the castle of the East Expedition City, Qi Ge, Sosa and Nathaniel discussed the next plan.
At the end, Qige concluded:
"The most important thing right now is development. Dongzheng City has always been defined as a fortress-type main city for defense.
In terms of infrastructure, it is not suitable for military and civilian survival.
It is very important to make up for the shortcomings of Dongzheng City.
Putting people's livelihood construction as the top priority, strive to get Dongzheng City away from the help of the sea clan as soon as possible, so that it can be independent and support a large population.
So, do you have any questions?"
Qi Ge looked at Sousa and then at Nasanil, and they both shook their heads to indicate that there was no problem.
“So this concludes our first East City Development Meeting.
Sousa, I will go to the Central Line to meet Her Majesty Queen Catherine later. If you have any message for me to bring to her, please write it in the letter."
After the meeting, Qi Ge was about to leave when Sosa caught up with him and said:
"Wait a minute, Seven Pigeons."
Sousa took out a dagger from his space backpack, held it carefully, and placed it in Qi Ge's hand.
[Fine Iron Dagger
Level 1 Alchemy Treasure
Equipment position: Weapon
Attack Power +1]
Qi Ge looked at Sosa in confusion.
Sosa took a deep breath and said:
“I’m not afraid of you laughing at me when I tell you this, but my family is very poor, and this is the only relic my father left me, and it was also the most valuable thing in our family.
I once thought that if the rebellion plan did not go well and Her Majesty the Queen was unable to save me in time, I would use this dagger to commit suicide.
Although you are Gru's subordinate, sent by Her Majesty the Queen.
But I know very well that neither Her Majesty the Queen nor Gru can come up with such a brilliant plan.
You saved my life, and now I will give it back to you.
I can do something for you that does not violate my principles, no matter how dangerous it is, even if it costs me my life."
As Sosa spoke, the dagger in Qige's hand turned into.
【Sosa's Heirloom
Quest Items
Effect: Give it to Sosa in exchange for a reward from Sosa. 】
"I finally sent this dagger out, and I feel refreshed."
Sousa smiled and asked, "You must know what my principles are, right?"
Seven Doves clenched the dagger and said, "I will never betray the queen, and I will never harm the people of Erathia."
Sosa shook his head and said, "There is one more. I will never marry you."
Qi Ge chuckled: "There wasn't this one before, I think you are targeting me."
Sousa also smiled, and it was an extremely sweet smile.
“Adela told me that you are not a good person.
When you learn to be faithful to a lady, I might consider it."
Sosa put the sword at his waist firmly and walked away quickly from Qi Ge.
Qi Ge blinked and thought that Sousa might be a little cuter than he had imagined?
——
"It's the tenth minute since the Seven Pigeons Master came. I miss him."
"It's the half hour before the Seven Pigeons God comes. I miss him."
"Seven pigeons..."
Hai Qinyan lay on the table, swinging her legs and muttering to herself.
Meteor also looked outside the door from time to time.
Why hasn't the great god Qi Ge come yet?
Finally, as the players were eagerly waiting, Qi Ge appeared in the logistics warehouse of Dongzheng City.
The players had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Qi Ge, they immediately surrounded him and looked at him with expectant eyes.
Qi Ge nodded vigorously and said, "We have taken it! A county town, Jordan, a coastal county town of Mrak."
"God Qi Ge is awesome!!!"
"Level 4 troops!! Swordsman! Crusader!"
"Level 4 Magic Guild!"
"There are stables too, and a brotherhood! This is the Seven Pigeons Master."
The seven pigeons clapped their hands and said:
“Not only that, I also secured the Temple of Poseidon and a mermaid tribe for everyone.
Mermaid NPCs will move into our Jordan City later.
You can receive more tasks from the mermaid NPCs."
"Mermaid!"
"Wow! This type of fantasy magic-themed troops is my favorite."
"Master, can you recruit?"
Qi Ge smiled slightly:
“It all depends on your efforts.”
"Let's go. I'll take you to familiarize yourself with the environment first."
The players of Tianxia Baye Guild excitedly followed Qi Ge and came to Jordan City through the teleportation array. Some of the NPCs in Jordan City had already evacuated, while some were still in the city.
The players excitedly took up various positions in Jordan City.
They should have been assigned long ago and are just waiting to take up their posts.
Qi Ge handed over the control of the Yasha Fire in Jordan City to Liu Xing, and Liu Xing became the first lord of Jordan City.
Since Jordan City was originally the county town of Elasia, all level 1 to 4 barracks are there, as well as the corresponding buildings that increase the production of troops.
120 Heroic Souls Great Axe Soldiers (Level 1, Tier 3), 40 Sharpshooters (Level 2, Tier 2), 30 Royal Griffins (Level 3, Tier 2), and 10 Crusaders (Level 4, Tier 2) can be produced every week.
If these forces are concentrated on one player, a sharp blade capable of attacking an enemy can be created in a week.
According to the agreement, the Qi Ge and Tian Xia Hegemony Guilds would split the profits 50-50.
If Qi Ge has unnecessary troops, they can convert them into gold coins and sell them to the Tian Xia Hegemony Guild.
Yes, since Jordan City is a system city, it can be traded as long as the troops have not been recruited.
What is being traded is recruitment quotas.
Qi Ge doesn't think much of these ordinary soldiers, but they are still good for Li Xiaobai to replenish his troops.
Then see if Li Xiaobai needs it. If not, we can hand it over to the Tianxia Baye Guild.
After briefly introducing the situation of Jordan City, Qi Ge handed Jordan City over to the players for development and came to the sea area of Jordan City.
The mermaids are building a tribe under the sea near the city of Jordan. Once the tribe is built, the Seven Doves will have to come back again.
Before the tribe is completed, the mermaids will follow Qi Ge's instructions and temporarily not come into contact with the players.
When Qi Ge is ready, these mermaids will become quest NPCs who help Qi Ge assign quests to players.
On the ten thousand ways to cut leeks.
Qi Ge thought about it carefully, confirmed that all the work in Mlak Territory and Dongzheng City had been completed, and then found Ke Ruoke and Yinhe.
Elanie and her mother Lalan were also with Ke Ruoke and the others.
When Qi Ge arrived, Yinhe and Elanie were singing a hypnotic song to the Miracle Tree with the cat sharks, and Lalan was sitting in a wheelchair, watching with a smile on his face.
Qi Ge saw from afar that there was an angel pattern carved on Lalan's right cheek with a knife and needle. The pattern had already scabbed over and looked particularly hideous.
Lalan stared at Elanie and the others singing.
Qi Ge thought about it and didn’t rush to disturb her, but went to find .
Ke Ruoke and the sea wizard Wolfs are checking the goods. Some of the supplies can be sold at a higher price in Wolfs' hometown, Falling Moon Territory.
Now that Wolfs has become one of their own, Ke Ruoke thinks that she can ask Wolfs to help sell part of it.
Qi Ge found Wolfs and took out a blueprint and handed it to him.
"Architectural blueprints of the goblin tavern? Lord Qige, what is this?"
