Chapter 200 Wanyaozhai Pharmacy

PS: We are about to reach the main storyline.

At dawn, the golden-red morning light sprinkled on the earth. It had rained last night.

The golden light shines on the dewdrops, creating layers of scattered golden light.

Mocheng and Huancheng are not far apart, so the large army led by Yao Ye was stationed in Mocheng.

In the early morning, the sky was dark and blue. On the desolate plain, densely packed troops advanced slowly.

They were arranged in a V-shape, with artillery, infantry, and cavalry in order, with clear levels.

Nalan Feng walked in front, and behind him was Nalan Feng's father, Nalan Zhun.

He is Nalan Su's younger brother, Nalan Feng's father, and a three-star Dou Ling.

This is the father and son fighting together in battle.

Yao Ye was in the carriage in the center.

In front of the artillery team, there were six huge siege vehicles pulled by twenty-eight horses. These siege vehicles were transported from the capital of Gamadi overnight and were specially used for sieges.

The loss of the Ring City was a major blow to the Gama Empire, so it had to be recaptured no matter what, in order to boost morale and restore the lost face of the Gama Empire.

The huge siege vehicle crushed the gravel, making a rustling sound.

This type of siege vehicle can be raised and lowered, and can reach a maximum height of seven zhang, which is high enough to cope with the height of most city walls. As for those built in dangerous places, even if the height is high enough, the siege vehicle cannot drive in.

Nalan Jun led a pair of cavalrymen to guard the siege vehicle. He rode on the back of a tall and strange beast. It looked like a horse, with black scales all over its body and a sharp horn protruding from its forehead.

A third-level magical beast, a one-horned horse.

He was wearing a sheepskin coat and a cold-proof hat. As he walked, he took off the water bag from his waist and took a sip of goat milk wine.

This place is located in the desert, very close to the Tagor Desert, so the temperature difference between day and night is very large. The dry wind blowing on the face is like a very fine knife, scraping the skin bit by bit, making it dry and rough.

As the troops continued to advance, a magnificent city came into the eyes of the soldiers.

The tall city walls and wide moat cover the nearby land like a dark cloud.

Nalan Zhun raised his hand, signaling the army to stop advancing temporarily.

If we get any closer, we will be within the attack range of the enemy's muskets and artillery.

At this moment, they were standing on a hillside, with winding farmlands below.

Every autumn, I can imagine the scene of waves of wheat.

But now, there is deathly silence here, and the wheat fields are covered with thick white bones, mixed with withered wheat stalks.

What should have been a lush and green place now only has a few withered tree trunks left to continue the scene of the past.

"Rest here and continue moving forward in five minutes."

Yao Ye walked along, exploring the surroundings with Nalan Zhun.

There was deathly silence all around, without a single sound, as if it were a dead zone.

There were no insects or birds, as if the breath of life had completely disappeared from this land.

"Kacha."

As Yao Ye was walking, she suddenly heard a crisp sound under her feet. She screamed in surprise, and Nalan Zhun immediately drew the sword from his waist.

It turned out to be a false alarm. Under the fallen leaves was a skeleton that had long been dried up. Its original spine had been crushed by Yao Ye's foot.

There had been a bloody battle here before.

And above the ring city, Mobas, wearing a linen robe, overlooked the army of the Gama Empire.

He sneered for a moment, his linen robe fluttering, and waves of glass-colored energy surged around him and extended towards the surrounding environment.

He was communicating with the earth veins, preparing to use the terrain to stop the army of the Gama Empire.

Yao Ye came to the front of the three armies under the escort of Nalan Zhun. Her voice was not loud, but full of energy.

"My fellow men of the Jiama Empire, a month ago, the beasts of the snake people invaded our territory, killed our compatriots, and burned our homes to ashes. Have you forgotten the deep hatred?"

The soldiers of the Jia Ma Empire all had red necks and roared in anger, "I haven't forgotten!"

Yao Ye paused, and swept his cold eyes over the soldiers of the Gama Empire, and said loudly: "This is our hatred, but it is not a shame. We want to let the beasts of the snake people know that our Gama Empire is not easy to mess with. The territory of the Gama Empire cannot be violated. Those who kill our people will pay with blood."

Yao Ye was the national goddess in the hearts of many people in the Jia Ma Empire. In the words of Gu Fengchen's previous life, she was very popular among the people. Therefore, when she came to the front line in person, the soldiers who were somewhat discouraged by Mu Zhan's death instantly regained their morale.

Yao Ye turned around and drew out a three-foot-long sword, pointing the tip of the sword at Mobas standing in the city. She sounded cold and elegant, like the sound of ice hitting each other, "Attack the city!"

At the command, the war began.

"Charge!" Nalan Zhun led the soldiers, while Nalan Feng led the siege soldiers and pushed the siege vehicle forward.

They carried ladders that were more than ten meters long and battering rams that weighed hundreds of kilograms.

Behind them, archers, artillery, and crossbows all opened fire, and the dense sound of artillery fire continued.

These bows, crossbows and artillery are all used to cover the infantry in the front in attacking the city.

The Gama Empire has not fought such a large-scale siege for a long time.

But just because there has been no fighting for a long time doesn't mean there won't be a war. In fact, when the Gama Empire was founded, it was conquered soldier by soldier. Deep down, the people of the Gama Empire are warlike and not afraid of war.

On the top of the city, the drums sounded like thunder and the trumpets were blown.

Mobas looked at the soldiers who were setting up artillery and preparing to attack the city with a grim gaze.

The war has begun completely.

On the other side, Qingshan Town.

Gu Fengchen, who fled in a panic, found a deserted place and changed his appearance, replacing it with an ordinary face.

Because many alchemists have joined Wanyaozhai recently, Wanyaozhai has set up a place specifically to recruit these alchemists, the Yaotang.

From a distance, Gu Fengchen could smell a strong medicinal aroma coming from the pharmacy.

The medicine hall was not built with bricks and stones because it was prone to fire. Most of the buildings here are made of bamboo, so even if they burn down, it is easy to rebuild.

Gu Fengchen thought about it and decided not to show his true face. Instead, he planned to take a look at the quality of this medicine hall.

Gu Fengchen walked to a group of alchemists and found that most of them were doctors and only a small number were alchemists.

Gu Fengchen didn't find it strange. After all, in this world, alchemists were a very scarce profession. Even those of the first or second grade were very popular. Therefore, it was not surprising that most people here were doctors.

He thought for a moment, glanced at everyone, and put forward the words he had prepared in advance to test me, and asked, "I want a Qi-restoring pill. Who among you can refine it?"

At this time, a woman in plain clothes walked up to Gu Fengchen and said, "1000 gold coins, I will help you refine it."

Gu Fengchen thought about it and nodded, "Okay."

Soon, the two walked to the side, and the woman smiled gently. She had a pair of black eyes, and when she smiled, her eyes seemed to come alive.

She smiled and looked at Gu Fengchen, and said seriously: "My name is Su Su, and you, what's your name? Are you a mercenary from Qingshan Town?"

Su Su's tone was gentle, like that of a girl next door.

Oh my god, she is both a kind aunt and the girl next door. Did she go to the wrong set today?
I have something on my mind and I can't help but express it.

Gu Fengchen collected his complicated thoughts, glanced at Su Su, and said calmly: "Well, I'm going to the Warcraft Mountain Range soon, so I want to buy some Qi-restoring pills and put them in my storage ring for emergency use."

"As for the Monster Mountain Range, I haven't been there yet. It's too dangerous. My father told me not to go and just let me concentrate on refining medicine. In this world, no one can starve to death, but the pharmacist can never die." Su Su said with a smile.

Father?

Well, this girl named Susu should be from a relatively large family.

To be honest, if there are enough resources, a pig can be trained to become Marshal Tianpeng.

The special identity of an alchemist is hard to come by unless one is from a large family or has extremely good talent.

He thought for a moment and asked, "What rank of alchemist are you?"

"Second grade." Su Su answered coquettishly.

"Since you are a second-grade master, why don't you go to the Alchemist Guild?" Gu Fengchen was a little surprised.

Logically speaking, the treatment of a second-grade alchemist in the Alchemist Guild would definitely be much better than staying in their Wanyaozhai.

"Because my father stole several medicinal herbs from the Alchemist Guild, our entire family was put on the Alchemist Guild's blacklist."

"Is that so?" Gu Fengchen scratched his head and didn't want to continue this topic.
