Chapter 440 Powerful Troubles

can offer.Although the Xuan Bird Army has been grinding fish people and making gold coins for a while, and they've also been buying gold coins, their budget is still limited after all.And during this..."Haha, this kind of thing wouldn't concern us little people, but Lord Lu Kong is exceptionally gifted. He will surely enter the Demon Battlefield in the future. Then, I'll trouble you to slay many demons."

The tall man laughed heartily.

Lu Kong came back to his senses and also smiled: "If I really go to the Devil's Battlefield, I will kill more devils."

This is no longer a matter of an individual or even a race.

If the demon were to truly consume the entire Central Continent, and with it, lose the platform of rapid advancement that is the Cosmic Game, then perhaps the entire universe would face destruction.

The two people chatted as they made their way to the Hall of Imperial Decrees.

Soon, they arrived at a tall building.

This magnificent skyscraper boasts a grand, retro design. Its entrance is imposing, guarded by two vigilant sentinels.

The tall man pointed to the gate and smiled, "This is the Hall of Governance. Lord Lu Kong, you can find the City Master here."

Thank you!

"Lord Lu Kong, you are too kind. This is just a small gesture. I hope your upgrade path is always smooth!"

The tall man performed a complex ceremony to Lu Kong, then mounted his steed and rode away.

The skies erupted with silver flame as the Dragonbane descended. He strode towards the gate.

The guards saw Lu Kong, they were all stunned, and then the two men saluted Lu Kong and said: "Lu Kong, sir!"

Seeing the two guards being so respectful, Lu Kong couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It really was due to high favorability and high reputation.

When he first entered the city of Wǔ, it was completely different.

Li Kong nodded. “I want to see the Lord Mayor.”

One guard hurriedly said, "No problem, please follow me, Lord Lu Kong!"

He led Lu Kong into the gate. Inside the gate was a huge, spacious hall.

In the center of the hall there was a black disc, its surface engraved with complex and ornate patterns.

In the hall, a number of government officials stepped onto the platform.

The guards took Lu Kong along with them.

These officials, seeing the presence of land and air forces, all broke into warm smiles.

"It's actually Lu Kong! I didn't expect you to come to Xinghe City so soon!"

"Welcome to Star River City, esteemed guests from the Land and Sky! Please don't hesitate to contact us if you need any assistance."

"... "

These officials' enthusiasm left both land and air struggling to keep up.

He nodded repeatedly, a smile spreading across his face.

At this time, the central disk unexpectedly rose directly into the air, hovering upwards.

Elevator

Lu Kong had never seen an elevator without any ropes before. It must have been using some kind of anti-gravity levitation technology.

With the current technological level of human beings on Yuanxing, perhaps it could also be achieved.

However, with current technological resources focused on resisting the invasion of demonized beasts and demons, this levitating elevator technology remains unfunded for research at present.

The suspension elevator stops at every floor, and people get on and off one after another.

In a short while, the elevator arrived at the top floor of the Governing Hall.

The guard led Lu Kong down the floating elevator, and then the two of them walked along the corridor until they reached a double door.

The guard knocked on the door: "Lord Mayor, Lu Kongge is here."

Soon, the door swung open, and a blonde woman in a black dress stepped out.

This woman has eyes without white, they are pure black, and she has two tentacles on her forehead.

She glanced at Lu Kong and smiled: "Mr. Lu Kong, please come in!"

LUKONG had some doubts.

Isn't the Lord of Star River City Liè Yáng

Is Liè Yáng a female

As soon as Lu Kong entered the office, he saw a man sitting at the desk. The man was exceptionally tall, nearly four meters high.

The man had a head of red short hair, and on his head there was even a wisp of flame burning.

His skin was flushed, with streaks of gold.

Lu Kong understood now, this was the City Lord, Lie Yang.

When the scorching sun saw Lu Kong, he stood up with a smile: "After hearing the system announcement, I knew that Mr. Lu Kong would arrive in Xinghe City sooner or later. I didn't expect it to be so soon!"

Lu Kong smiled and said, "I have met the Lord Mayor."

Lièyáng waved his hand and said, "Master Lùkōng, you're being too polite. Your talent is renowned even within Xinghe City! Come, sit down and let's talk."

The scorching sun sat beside Land and Air on the sofa at the edge.

Beneath the scorching sun, the giant figure of Lièyáng settled onto the sofa. Even though the couch was incredibly spacious, a groan of strain echoed as he took his place.

The blonde woman just now made tea for the two of them.

Understood. This person is probably a secretary or something similar.

"Lie Yang's personality should be straightforward. After a simple greeting, Lie Yang got straight to the point: "Lu Kong, what brings you to me"

Lu Kong took out the Fused Claw Demon communication crystal and handed it to Lie Yang, saying seriously: "I found this in a Fused Claw Demon nest in Dawu City. According to the investigation, the Fused Claw Demons have probably been lurking on the Orion Continent for a long time, with several nests. This communication crystal contains the location of one of the nests."

Seeing this, Lie Yang's face changed slightly. He hurriedly took the communication crystal.

He sensed something, his face gradually becoming solemn: “This coordinate is a certain distance from Star River City, located deep within the Twisted Jungle. The magic there is dense, and there’s also rampant death energy. The monsters are very powerful, and on top of that, there aren't any significant resource points. Adventurers rarely go there...I didn't expect there to be a Cleft Claw Demon's nest!”

He pondered for a moment, then replied, "According to Master Lu Kong's view, I'm afraid there's more than just this Corrupted Claw demon lair near Xinghe City... It seems like we'll have to investigate the surrounding area thoroughly!"

"Indeed," Lu Kong nodded slightly and continued, "If we could check the entire surrounding area thoroughly, it would certainly bring some peace of mind."

After all, Lu Kong knew that a city had been destroyed by the Claws of Corruption long ago.

Now the Cinderfang Demons and the Pale Order are teaming up. The Pale Order has a certain amount of influence across the entire Hunter Continent, so they might help the Cinderfang Demons cause trouble.

If we don't stay vigilant, even Xinghe City might not be entirely safe.

Under the scorching sun, Lie Yang pondered for a moment before speaking, "Lu Kong, since this Corrupted Claw Demon lair is your lead, could you please help me destroy it With your strength and talent, it should be no problem! Of course, if you can find more clues about the Corrupted Claw Demons, that would be even better!"

"Ding, mission detected: Clear the Rotclaw Lair (unique), accept"

Task: Cleanse the Corrupted Claw Lair (Unique)

Introduction: Lord Liéyáng, the city lord of Xinghé City, learned about the Cleft Claw Demon from you. He takes this matter very seriously and hopes that you will clear out the Cleft Claw Demon's lair where the Cleft Claw Demon communication crystal records are stored!

Reward: Experience points, 1000 gold coins, a Legendary Chest *1, and 10,000 Starfall City reputation.

Liukong raised an eyebrow slightly.

How do you say "task rewards"

If you have to say, it's definitely good, after all, getting a legendary chest at tier three is already quite remarkable.

Unfortunately, for land and air, the legendary chest is a bit low-level.

According to the rumors in Star River City, Lu Kong should now be qualified as a middle-rank noble, even a high-rank noble wouldn't be far off.

Needless to say about the gold coins.

The only useful thing is probably experience points.

The experience rewards given for completing the only task have always been extremely generous.

In addition to the task clues bringing high-level monster farming spots, this makes it very quick for land and air leveling.

Lu Kong was momentarily at a loss.

Sometimes, being ahead of your level can also have downsides. It's a rare and unique mission, but the reward didn't really surprise him.

Alas...

This must be the strong problem, right

It's better to have a task than no task at all.

And facing the Corrupted Claw isn't just about the mission.

If the Corrupted Claw were to be allowed to fully develop, it could potentially threaten every major city on the Hunter Continent.

Other three races' players, both land and air, can't control much. However, if Yuanxing players lose their gathering place because their main city is destroyed, then land and air can't accept it.

He silently accepted the mission and smiled, saying, "I'll take care of this mission."t simple.He previously found the corrupted claw demon's lair in Da Wu City, all because of Ankos' clues.If you let him look for it, then it'll be difficult.But with the Great City's cooperation, the t...
