The north of the Omor Empire was mostly hilly and mountainous. The climate here was harsh and the environment was dangerous, and it was not suitable for large-scale urban settlements.

It is precisely because of this that the population and economic center of the Omor Empire were generally biased towards the east and south, and it was not much better in the west, it was a large Gobi desert.

In the territory of the Principality of Zelot, the current Grand Duke was worried.

The Principality of Zelot is a small principality located in the north of the Omor Empire. It is adjacent to the Omor Empire and has no important resources in the country. It only focuses on exporting a rare earth that magicians prefer.

Every civilian in this kingdom is a precious treasure to the Grand Duke. This is not to say that the Grand Duke cares about his people so much, but that the Principality of Zelot is too few people.

The land is small and the people are sparse, so it is very suitable to evaluate the Principality of Zelot.

Grand Duke Zelot of all dynasties can be called diligent rule, including the one who is now.

Wipe the sweat stains on his face with a silk scarf imported from the Southern Omor Empire. Grand Duke Zelot moved his short and fat body and asked the messenger in front of him, "Is there any news from the Laren Forest? How is that adult?"

"The latest news is that there are still strong fighting fluctuations in the Laron Forest. As for the adult who entered yesterday, he should still be fighting against the stone bear." The messenger's expression was also a little anxious.

"Send two teams of knights to see. If there is new information, you must come here as soon as possible!" Grand Duke Zelot said hurriedly.

"Yes!" The messenger immediately went outside to pass the message.

Seeing the messenger running out of the hall, Grand Duke Zelot sat in a chair.

"Your Majesty, you are too tired these days." One of the most beloved concubines of Grand Duke Zelot appeared in the palace and went up to say.

The appearance of this beautiful concubine made our Grand Duke Zelot breathe a sigh of relief. He tried his best not to think about the troubles in the Laron forest.

"If you are tired, you are tired. The key is that I hope the knight from the empire can completely solve the problem." Grand Duke Zelot said with a worried face.

"It's a pity that General Warren is not in Zelot, otherwise the bear would have been killed long ago." This concubine is not a vase. She comes from a famous family and knows a lot.

"Oh, General Warren was transferred from the Knights' Hall to perform his mission. It will probably take one or two years to come back." said the Grand Duke.

General Warren is Zelot's top powerhouse, a top-level knight, and Zelot's greatest deterrent force to the outside world.

It is said that Zelot is too weak and covers an area of ​​only the size of Fostertan, and there is only such a single first-class strongman trained in the public.

Once this first-level strong man left Zelot, the troubles and difficulties that followed caused our Grand Duke Zelot to plummet from a fat man of more than 400 kilograms to now about 300 kilograms.

The concubine said that Grand Duke Zelot was too tired and it was really not false.

If a first-level knight can leave the country for several years, the Grand Duke Zelot is not a person who knows nothing but is waiting for a dead person. He is sent by the Knight Palace to perform missions in an alien plane.

In the two consecutive plane wars, the knights of the Knight Palace suffered heavy losses. After more than ten years of cultivation and supplementation, they only recovered a little.

There are not many first-level peak knights in the Knight Hall. These knights have been given many rights and positions in the Knight Hall today. It can be said that the first-level peak knights in recent years are just about the treatment, just from the second-level knights that were more than ten years ago.

"I hope General Warren will come back as soon as possible." The fat grandfather muttered.

"Your Majesty, I heard that a first-class knight from the Knight Hall came yesterday?" asked the concubine.

"Well, I'm here to help us solve the knight who is the rocky bear." The Grand Duke nodded and said.

"That's great." The concubine smiled, "As soon as the stone mist bear was solved, the amount of rare earth tribute this year can be completed."

"I hope." The fat man sighed.

The Laron Forest is not the main production area of ​​rare earths produced in the Kingdom of Zelot, but there are three key rare earth mines on the nearby Laron Highlands. Four-sevenths of the rare earths in the Principality are mined from those heavy mines every year.

Because of the raging stone bears in the Larron Forest, construction has not started for two months on the rare earth mine on the Larron Highlands, which is also the biggest trouble facing Grand Duke Zelot now.

"I really don't know where this violent bear came out! Damn it!" Grand Duke Zelot waved his fist heavily and gritted his teeth.

In the Laron Forest, about 70 kilometers away from here, Locke was covering Yin Xue's left chest, staring coldly at a deep pit in front of him.

Below the deep pit, a bear monster with gray rock barbs on its back and red eyes was roaring in pain.

The grizzly bear's condition was much worse than Locke. Not only did it get torn off, but even one of its hind limbs was interrupted by Locke, and he could only lie on the ground and make a furious.

Judging from the performance of this bear monster, and the fact that there is no clear and bright nature in its eyes, only bloodthirsty nature, this stone mist bear obviously has the strength of a quasi-level monster, or even surpassing the quasi-level monster, but it does not have matching intelligence. What is this situation?

Not planning to cause trouble, Locke was about to go down and bear the life of this stone bear.

Life is threatened, and the survival instinct of all living beings has restored Shi Ai Fengxiong to a moment of calmness. He did not beg for life or tried to escape. Shi Ai Fengxiong actually stabbed his head to the ground at a critical moment!

Lock didn't believe that Shi Ai Fengxiong was holding his head and begging for mercy. Seeing Shi Ai Fengxiong doing this, Lock cursed, "Come again?! Die for me!"

An unparalleled fighting spirit shot straight towards Shi Ai Baoxiong's neck.

"Clang!" As the metal clashed, the stone on Shi Ai Feng's back stimulated and quickly flew away, from about three meters to five meters before it stopped, and the width of the stone thorn also increased significantly.

This stone thorn is composed of inexplicably, but it actually blocked Locke's full-strength attack.

"Roar!!" After blocking this attack, Shi Ai Fengxiong was not feeling well. He pulled his head out of the ground in pain and roared to the sky.

This time, the last trace of reason left in Shi Ai Fengxiong's eyes had completely disappeared, and only tyranny and killing were left in his red glare.

A little bit of metal slag fell from the corner of his mouth. Shi Ai Fengxiong seemed to have eaten something under the ground just now.

"Hmph, at the end of the strong! I want to see how long you can last?" Locke said relaxedly, but he didn't take it lightly in his actual actions. While fighting with the violent bear, he also called out the scorpion dragon Feimo in the space flute.

The Scorpion Dragon Fei Mo was in a bad situation at this time. Not only did he break a third of his scales and armor, but there were two palm prints on his back. How could he look at this palm print? How did he look like a bear's paw print?

At first glance, I saw the misty bear again. With the gangster posture of the scorpion dragon Femo in the Holy Tower Forest, I couldn't help but retreat half a step back.

It cooperated with Locke yesterday to fuck the bear

One fight, it destroyed one of the hind limbs of the rush bear, and it also suffered two old punches from the rush bear, which can be said to be both defeated.

"Don't be afraid, it's almost gone, it's going to be dead this time!" Locke cheered Femo.

Locke was also frustrated. He thought it was a simple killing mission, so how could he think his opponent was so difficult?

If it weren't for the life level of the Blast Bear, it was indeed still hovering at the level of the quasi-level, just in terms of its endurance and attack power strength, Locke felt that there was no problem in judging it with a level of monster.

In fact, there are indeed some monsters in this world. Although their life level is less than the first level, they are even more difficult than ordinary first-level monsters.

Locke was very unfortunate, and today he happened to encounter such a person.

After another half a day of hard battle, Locke and Fermo joined hands and finally defeated the misty bear again before nightfall.

Two-thirds of the scales on Femo's body were broken, and corrosive dark red blood flowed everywhere on his body, dripping to the ground, destroying many turf branches with a slight sound.

After retrieving Femo back the space flute, Locke rushed forward and chopped off Shi Ai Feng's head, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Shi Ai Fengxiong's skin was too petrified. Locke had to use three black iron heavy swords and chopped them up to tidy up the Fengxiong's head.

"You have to change your equipment quickly." Locke said gasping.

When dealing with this quasi-level bear with extremely powerful combat power, Locke suffered a great loss, which is that his equipment was too poor.

His armor was made casually, and the high-level attendants and quasi-knights were useless, but he was a little too short of a first-level knight. The weapons were even more expensive items that Locke bought from the Knights Hall.

After the war, Locke did not leave this place immediately, but flew towards the deep pit where the bear had been before.

This violent bear gave Locke a strange feeling. It has a characteristic, that is, it will not leave this forest, or in other words, it will not leave this deep pit too far.

As we got closer and closer to the pit, a uncomfortable feeling came.

Feeling that there were no spiritual fluctuations in the vicinity of any creatures, Locke boldly walked over to investigate.

The closer you get to the deep pit, the more uncomfortable you feel, and a layer of shield is quietly formed, which is the unique Dou Qi shield of the first-level knight.

When the shield was formed, Locke felt a little better, as if something was blocked outside by the Douqi shield.

Leaning to the edge of the deep pit and looking down, some bright yellow metal blocks appeared in the dark cave.

"Damn! Is this a rare earth mine?" Locke cursed inwardly.

The Principality of Zelot, a principality, has about 100,000 people in total, and they all rely on rare earths as materials to export their lives. It is not an exaggeration, but it is really enough to rely on selling rare earths.

The targets they sell are magicians who are well-known for their wealth.

Lock finally knew why he felt so strange. Rare earths are not real soil, but a collective name for many precious metals.

This type of precious metal is different from metals such as gold and silver. They are even less rare than gold and silver, and are correspondingly more expensive than ordinary gold and silver.

Rare earths have one common feature, that is, they have strong radioactivity, and magicians also like to call this type of metal radiant stone.
