Chapter 98 Heading to the Eastern Region!
"You are also stupid. How can you make such a stupid mistake when you are a grown-up?"
East Region, [Donglinanxia] Guild, high-end restaurant.
A middle-aged man with asphalt-colored stubble sat next to Dong Li and frowned in accusation.
As Dongli's allied guild that moved south, Chen Xuan, the president of [Xuan Ang Si Hai], just learned that Dongli had lost a bet.
And the stakes are three holy torches.
Chen Xuan rode his horse hurriedly and stopped Dongli before he could trade the Holy Torch with the other party.
"I won't say more, but at least I have to admit defeat, right?" Dong Li sighed, "My skills are inferior to his. I didn't expect that guy to study League of Legends dungeons to this extent."
"He seems to be born to do this job, you have to admit it."
Chen Xuan sneered immediately.
"Are you stupid? It's a C-rank dungeon. Even if he's good at it, what's the use? Is it worth it for us to give him three Holy Torches?"
"You are about to become a god. Given these three Holy Torches, how long will it take you to become a god?"
“But…” Before Dong Li could say anything, Chen Xuan interrupted him with a wave of his hand: “Stop talking. If you still listen to me, I won’t give him these three Holy Flame Torches! If you think the Holy Flame Torches are too many, just give them to me. I just need three Holy Flame Torches to ascend to godhood.”
"If he is really capable, let him come to the East Region in person and settle the score with me offline."
"Oh, I don't think he can even get through the East Region Gate."
…
Xu Mu checked his belongings again.
100 energy blocks of various colors were produced within two days, and only 2 white crystal blocks were brought with them in case of emergency.
Check the potentials again, all the potentials except Wind and Thunder Diplomacy are at level 80.
The Dodge Rush skill obtained from the League of Legends copy has been upgraded to level 30, with a three-second stealth effect and an additional 50% visibility damage.
After taking stock of all this, Xu Mu was ready to hit the road.
This time when we go to the Eastern Region, what we have to do is quite simple.
Get back your gambling debts.
Two days have passed since the last bet ended, and the Holy Torch has still not arrived.
There was no movement from Dongli either.
Xu Mu is not a person who likes to chase people online to collect debts.
If he doesn't pay back his debt, then just go kick his door and see what's going on.
Let’s also take a look at what’s so rare and special about the Eastern Region that seems to be isolated from the rest of the world.
He stomped his foot on the ground and jumped high, and with a thought, a gust of wind was created.
“Buzz!!!”
In an instant, Xu Mu was like a projectile, making a whistling sound of air friction, and then turned into a light white meteor and flew rapidly towards the direction of the Eastern Region!
A shallow pit was created on the ground where he was originally standing.
This is the good thing about mastering the ability to fly. It is so convenient for traveling.
The Eastern Region is not the exact east of Huaxiu’s territory, but rather encompasses the dense and continuous mountain range from north to east.
It is a veritable mountain area.
The major provincial capitals and towns under the jurisdiction of the Eastern Region are located on the scattered mountain ranges around them.
The highest of them, Dengtian Mountain, towers into the clouds, with an altitude of nearly 10,000 meters. It is much higher than Mount Everest, the highest mountain on Earth where Xu Mu lived in his previous life. On the mountain there is a special mineral that does not melt all year round - the Jianxue Mine.
Local residents often collect it and use it as a natural refrigerator.
A large piece can keep things warm for at least a whole year.
According to some details Xu Mu heard from Ma Gongping.
This Dengtian Mountain is where the main population of the Eastern Region resides, and it is divided into three layers.
The foothills of Dengtian Mountain, located at the lowest level, is the main activity area for ordinary citizens in the Eastern Region. It is also a transportation hub that maintains the logistics operation of the entire Eastern Region.
The Dengtianpo area in the middle of Dengtian Mountain is where players from the Eastern Region and a number of guilds reside.
As for the top of Dengtian Mountain, what exactly this area is used for, even people at the level of the have no idea.
Upon learning that Xu Mu wanted to go to the Eastern Region, Ma Gongping was quite worried and wanted to help him contact the Governor of the Eastern Region to avoid being blocked when entering the Eastern Region.
However, Xu Mu waved his hand to refuse.
The players in the Eastern Region have always prided themselves on being noble and upright, and as the head of a region that manages the entire Eastern Region, if they were kind and lenient to others, the people of the entire Eastern Region would not be so unruly.
This shows that the Governor of the East Region is not an easy person to talk to.
Besides, I went there this time to get back my own things, not to ask for anything in return.
If you want something, you must have the attitude of asking.
Bowing and thanking people all the way, and even kowtow to them after they return your things, this is not Xu Mu's style.
Why are you talking so much nonsense? I don’t care whether you are from the East Region or the North Region. If you don’t return the things, I will beat you until you die.
"But, Master A, there are still some things you need to pay attention to."
"The area at the foot of Dengtian Mountain is relatively easy to enter. You can directly cross the ground jurisdiction with your flying ability. But if you want to enter Dengtian Slope without a pass, you need to pass the mountain pass."
"Break through the mountain pass?"
"Yes, this is also a test for the foothills of Dengtian Mountain and some outside players. There will be some direct aerial elevators from the foot of the mountain to the middle of the mountain, but they require a pass to activate."
"If you don't have a pass, you need to start climbing from the bottom ring of the mountain road. There are a total of 18 rings of mountain roads, and 18 players will be stationed to guard them. The ones at the bottom are all A+ level, and the guard of the 18th ring of mountain roads..."
"He's an SS-level player."
When mentioning this, Ma Gongping's eyes became a little solemn.
Players who reach S-level have physical fitness far superior to that of ordinary people. Tearing rocks with bare hands and walking on water are no problem for them.
If helped by superior potential, the destructive power it brings is even no less than that of a special forces unit fully equipped with hot weapons, and it can easily destroy a small town in just a few minutes.
For players who reach SS level, their comprehensive destructive power is enough to destroy all the core equipment of a city in a short period of time.
It can instantly paralyze the entire city in terms of transportation, electricity, water conservancy, etc.
If it is supplemented with some explosive potential.
With one move, an entire street could be razed to the ground.
The power can sweep from the street to the end of the street!
Ma Gongping had some understanding of why Xu Mu wanted to go to the Eastern Region.
But he was also worried that Xu Mu's trip was too reckless.
If you really encounter an SS-level player, you might end up being defeated by him.
Those people in the East Region don't care about human feelings.
Those who are about to reach the divine realm are definitely guests of honor in other major domains.
But in the Eastern Region, the internal circulation has reached its extreme and it controls the most resources of the country.
Not only are there a lot of players who are about to reach the God-level, but at least every seventh-tier guild can have a player who is about to reach the God-level.
It's just that they have never had contact with the outside world for many years, and ordinary citizens and even players in other domains know very little about them.
"The explosive force can destroy an entire street?" After hearing Ma Gongping's description, Xu Mu raised his eyebrows slightly and was a little surprised.
So weak?
According to the current state of his G warrior, he can just cast a random shot on the earth.
The destructive force caused by falling straight down from the sky is likely to cover an entire street, causing earthquake-like turmoil and causing the buildings on both sides of the street to collapse one after another.
If you apply element fusion again, several types of energy crystals will be destroyed.
Finally, by dodging the surprise attack, the damage of this attack was increased by another 50%...
To be honest, Xu Mu has never tried it.
Mainly because he was worried that it was too powerful.
At that time, the fusion of five or six elements, with the hundred-fold gravitational field offsetting a considerable portion of the force, had already caused strange phenomena in heaven and earth.
If these BUFFs were stacked up in a natural environment, Xu Mu was afraid that as soon as he made a move, the entire southern region would go on level one alert.
The reason for the alert is that a country has dropped nuclear weapons in the southern region.
"Yes, a street!" Ma Gongping looked at the surprise in Xu Mu's eyes and thought that Xu Mu might be a little timid, so he said more seriously: "This is not a joke, so Boss A must be low-key on this trip. If you can solve it politely, that would be the best. If you can't solve it immediately, please contact me and I will find a way to help you."
"Yeah." Xu Mu didn't explain much, but nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you, Chief Ma Yu, for your hard work for me. I will pay attention to it."
As soon as Xu Mu left the Southern Region Palace, Ma Gongping quickly called the governors of the Northern and Western Regions.
After explaining their purpose, the two domain chiefs also looked somewhat surprised.
"God A is going to break into the mountain gate of the East Region?"
"Isn't this a bit too reckless..."
Since the Eastern Region was isolated from the other three regions, this mountain pass is more or less just a decoration, a means for the Eastern Region to deter foreign players from invading through illegal routes.
But generally speaking, those who can come to the Eastern Region have received an invitation from the Eastern Region and will be issued a pass.
You can take the aerial elevator directly to go up without having to go through the mountains.
Over the years, the number of people who have crossed the mountain pass has been very small.
There are only a few thousand people.
And only one of them was actually passed.
“If I remember correctly, it should be the one from your Northern Territory.” Ma Gongping said.
Speaking of this, Chen Shideng was quite shy and spat, "Don't mention that ungrateful guy. He relied on his talent and didn't think about how much resources I had invested in him in the early years. He could choose any dungeon card he wanted, any item that increased lifespan, strength, and agility, and some potential books that would make people jealous in the three regions. But he ran to the East Region as soon as he entered the Quasi-God Realm."
"What's the situation now?" Qi Zunxiang, the governor of the Western Region, asked again.
"Now... it seems like he is one of the four great powers in the Eastern Region." Chen Shideng's hatred was mixed with a hint of regret.
If only people like this could stay in the Northern Territory forever.
Not to mention being on par with the Eastern Region, it is at least far superior to the Southern Region and the Western Region.
Maybe even the god-level players will come out.
"Let's get to the point. The main reason I'm looking for the two district chiefs this time is that I want to jointly negotiate with the district chief of the East Region." Ma Gongping said slowly.
"Just giving hello in advance, right?" said Chen Shideng.
“Well, I’m afraid that God A is still too young. After he gets into conflict with others in the Eastern Region, he will cause unnecessary trouble and be bullied by others… Alas.” Ma Gongping sighed softly: “This kid is very talented, and the most terrifying thing is that he didn’t use any of our Southern Region’s resources. He rushed all the way up by himself, and in the end, he gave back to our Southern Region the glory of a saint.”
When the Glory of the Saint was mentioned, the governors of the North and West regions both looked envious.
The Western Region has a player who just emerged after this red moon and is close to reaching the God Realm, Han Yueli.
Naturally, there is no glory of the saints to bathe in.
"He is indeed a genius worthy of cultivation. To be honest, we in the three regions cannot keep him. Only in the Eastern Region can he find the best development." Qi Zunxiang had also heard of the name of God A and knew some of his legendary stories.
He has almost reached the divine realm in less than three months. His talent is indeed frighteningly high.
After some discussion, the three of them jointly contacted Tan Canghu, the governor of the East Region.
However, even though the three of them signed the petition together, Tan Canghu still did not show up.
Instead, he sent his secretary to have a video call with the three of them, and casually said a few words to them, which was considered as reluctant agreement.
Ma Gongping was well aware of this result.
This is the best result they can achieve.
Not everyone can be sent to the Eastern Region.
Xu Mu's talent is already quite terrifying in the eyes of the Three Realms.
But coming to the Eastern Region, he is just at the quasi-god level, which is not surprising.
…
Eastern Region, the Palace of the Region Chief.
Although it is called a palace, it is actually a huge and magnificent castle located to the north of Dengtianpo.
Just to build this castle that combines the ancient and the modern, it consumed resources worth trillions of Red Moon Coins!
These funds are almost enough to support the destruction of a small country through military force before the copy arrives!
It is not difficult to see the ambition with which this palace was built.
I want to go through the Dengtian Slope and go up to the top of Dengtian Mountain.
You need to obtain the Tongtian qualification certificate and then go all the way up through the castle.
At the same time, in the Domain Governor’s office.
An old man with white hair, sagging skin and deep nasolabial folds sat in the center, holding an exquisitely carved patterned teacup in his hand and sipping it slowly.
"Domain Commander, I have told them everything you just said." A strong and well-dressed man knocked on the door and entered. After respectfully announcing the result, he asked with a hint of doubt, "However, do the players jointly recommended by the three domain commanders really need to break through the mountain gate again?"
"And... in fact, being on the verge of becoming a god should have qualified you to be a foreign citizen of our Eastern Region, right?"
Tan Canghu pretended not to hear and just sipped his tea. After a moment, he slowly put it down.
He glanced at the secretary in front of him and spoke in a cold voice with a hint of arrogance.
"He is a player jointly recommended by the three major regions, which means he does not intend to stay in our Eastern Region to continue to develop."
"Since you are not staying, don't even think about taking anything away from our Eastern Region."
"Liqing, I don't need to tell you the rules of our Eastern Region for the second time, right?"
Secretary Sun Liqing quickly stood up straight, stretched his body straight, and said loudly: "Yes!"
"Yes." Tan Canghu nodded: "Go down and make arrangements."
"By the way." He suddenly spoke again.
Sun Liqing paused.
"Let's replace the people guarding the Eighteen Ring Mountain Pass."
"What the Domain Commander means is..."
"I think this person has bad intentions and needs some small challenges. Otherwise, wouldn't anyone in the Eastern Region who is about to ascend to the God Realm be able to come to the mountain pass to have a try?"
Sun Liqing's face was stunned.
Still changing?
Currently guarding the last mountain ring of the Eighteen Rings is a player who has just entered the SS-level.
If you change up further, you might just be an old hand who has been in the SS-class for a year or two.
At this level... let alone the three major regions, even some of the more outstanding presidents of the Eastern Region have to consider whether to fight or not.
Thinking of this, Sun Liqing couldn't help but secretly glance at his own domain chief.
The domain chief obviously wanted to use the 'uninvited guest' to establish his authority.
He wanted to make the Eastern Region more isolated and completely cut off the other three regions' intention to try to get close to it.
"Okay." Sun Liqing responded, but shook his head helplessly in his heart. He couldn't help but feel some sympathy for the visitor who had not yet arrived.
If he had come here two years earlier, perhaps nothing would have happened.
Today, the Eastern Region has been favored by the twelve quasi-gods, and its development every day is different from the past.
Even the domain chief wanted to drive away a group of players with mediocre talents.
Not to mention welcoming a player who doesn’t plan to stay in the Eastern Region.
"However, it may not be a bad thing for him to face reality and go home early."
"If you go through fewer levels, you will suffer less physical pain."
Sun Liqing sighed, then went out and started making arrangements.
…
"Pah."
With a light sound of landing, Xu Mu landed at an entrance at the foot of Dengtian Mountain.
Looking up, he saw a huge snow-capped mountain that was so high that his top was invisible and so wide that it blocked his view standing before him.
When I was flying all the way here just now, looking down from the high altitude, I could feel the majestic grandeur of the highest mountain on the blue planet.
Now that I am at the foot of the mountain, I can feel more clearly and intuitively how huge this mountain is.
No wonder such an extremely developed city could be built halfway up the mountain.
And what surprised Xu Mu the most was.
His own Blue Sky Eye was affected and became ineffective in this place.
His own Blue Sky Eye is of golden grade.
In other words, there is anti-reconnaissance potential in the Eastern Region, and it has also reached the Chanjin level or even higher.
This was the first time Xu Mu encountered resistance since traveling to Blue Star.
It seems that the Eastern Region is indeed full of talented people, and it almost gathers the strength of the top players in the entire Huaxiu Country.
Moreover, Xu Mu originally wanted to try to fly directly from the air and land halfway up the mountain.
But that also failed.
Once he gets close, there will be an extreme wind pressure that will blow him away.
It was as if an invisible barrier was preventing the flyers from moving freely.
However, Xu Mu felt it a little bit.
The power of the wind barrier belongs to the elemental system.
It seems that I can use the potential of [God of Elements] and turn it into my own use.
He directly drew a line on the ground to make it a prison, so that all the people in Dengtian Mountain could only enter but not leave, and were trapped inside...
Of course, Xu Mu temporarily suppressed this idea.
After all, this was too big a fuss. He was only here to get the torch, not to destroy the Eastern Region.
Don't have any dangerous thoughts, as they are not conducive to unity.
Xu Mu found out after asking an ordinary person living at the foot of the mountain.
If you want to go up the mountain, you must start from the entrance at the foot of Dengtian Mountain and pass the trials of the eighteen rings of mountain guarding players before you can reach the halfway point of the mountain.
If you want to climb up further, you must get a pass from the Domain Chief's Castle.
"The eighteenth ring is at least SS-level. My little brother, I see that your breath is unstable. I advise you not to think about ascending to the sky." The local resident shook his head: "The tempers of the presidents in our East Region are very bad. If you don't have a life-threatening matter, I really don't recommend going up the mountain this time."
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, uncle." Xu Mu nodded with a smile.
Then, in the uncle's stunned gaze.
Turn around and walk straight towards the mountain!
