Chapter 34: Departure to the provincial capital

This thing is like Carol's Ring. It is an artifact. Not only can it be changed into any shape, it also has strong protective capabilities.

Even if Xu Kuang were to attack Baihua City alone now, he would still... not die.

Xu Kuang became honest, and he suddenly realized that every word in the equipment description only meant to make his life harder, not to make him stronger.

All in all, stay tight and don’t waste your time!

Xu Kuang took a deep breath and decided that he would hold on tight and not jump too much.

Xu Kuang raised his head. His gaze seemed to penetrate the clouds and reach somewhere in the universe. He saw an extremely majestic figure and nodded to him approvingly.

Xu Kuang trembled and looked away. With a thought, the nano armor was automatically put on his body and transformed into the shape of Xu Kuang's original clothes.

Xu Kuang waved his hand and found that he could not detect the existence of the nano-armor.

Xu Kuang frowned slightly and began to check his attribute panel.

Xu Kuang's current attributes are almost the same as Zhang Damiao's. Just more than 20 days ago, there was still a big gap between him and Zhang Damiao. With this kind of upgrade speed, no one would believe Xu Kuang's words.

Xu Kuang closed the attribute panel and came to Zhuge Duan's mansion.

Zhuge Duan welcomed Xu Kuang into the house and asked:

"I wonder what the Lord wants from me?".

Xu Kuang got straight to the point:

"To be honest, sir, I am planning to go to the provincial capital. I wonder if it can be made?"

Zhuge Duan counted with his fingers and laughed:

"Don't worry, my lord, you will be happy and worry-free here."

Xu Kuang was overjoyed, bowed deeply to Zhuge Duan, and then asked:

"Then when is the right time for me to go?".

You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.

"After three days, it will take three days to prepare the manpower for the task."

"Then I dare to ask, sir, who can I take with me?".

Zhuge stroked his beard, and after a moment, he said to Xu Kuang:

"Mr. Lane is in charge of the private treasury, and this trip is indispensable without him; Miss Hathaway is well-informed, and this trip cannot be done without her; and with the cavalry company commander Chen Xiaobao leading the cavalry to escort, we can have no worries."

Xu Kuang stood up, saluted Zhuge Duan, and said:

"Thank you sir for giving me some advice. I'll prepare now."

Zhuge Duan returned the gift and said:

"My lord, it's a long way to go. Please go back as soon as possible."

Xu Kuang turned and left.

three days later

After Xu Kuang handed over the latest production of more than thirty 56-style guns to Zhang Damiao, he found Ryan and asked:

"Are you ready for the copper coins I asked you to prepare?"

Ryan took Xu Kuang to a warehouse and said to Xu Kuang:

"Here are 300,000 copper coins, which are all the copper coins that can be used.".

Xu Kuang nodded and told Ryan:

"Hurry up and pack your bags, we'll leave today."

After Ryan left, Xu Kuang clicked on the automatic generation function and produced 300,000 rounds of bullets in one go, consuming all the copper coins and high-explosive gunpowder he had accumulated.

The unit production time of bullets is much shorter than that of guns. Three hundred thousand rounds of bullets only takes thirty days, ten thousand rounds a day. Xu Kuang calculated that when he comes back, he can settle the bullets to Zhang Damiao.

After Xu Kuang explained many things in a lengthy manner, he led everyone on the road.

two days later

Ahead is a narrow bridge, barely large enough for two horses to cross side by side.

Xu Kuang reined in his horse and asked helplessly:

"Everyone behind me, aren't you ready to come out? You have been following me for two days, when are you going to take action?"

As soon as these words came out, all the cavalry led by Chen Xiaobao skillfully raised their heads and looked around.

When Hathaway heard this, she suddenly panicked and asked:

"Is there really someone?".

Xu Kuang smiled and said:

"This group of people has been following us since we left Mushroom Ridge. Now is the perfect opportunity. They are definitely going to take action."

Before Xu Kuang could finish his words, there were people coming out of the forest behind the bridge and across the bridge.

The leader smiled and said:

"Lord Xu, don't blame me. I'm just taking people's money to eliminate disasters for them. Your head is worth thirty thousand gold coins."

Xu Kuang's expression remained unchanged:

"Oh? Victor is quite willing to pay for it. Let me ask you a question. Did you kill my father?"

When Ryan heard this, his expression changed drastically, and he asked:

"Master, what do you mean by this?".

The leader smiled and said:

"As expected of Lord Xu, he is indeed smart. Yes, your father is also my masterpiece. And look behind you to see if you recognize those people."

Xu Kuang chuckled and said:

"No need to look, everyone, get ready!".

A row of gunmen came down from the covered carriage. This was the infantry row with the strongest firepower. They had all the submachine guns in Xu Kuang's hands.

Behind one row, two 40-year-old soldiers had already begun to put up a show.

Xu Kuang shouted:

"Everyone prepare!".

"Fire!".

Suddenly, dozens of tongues of flame spurted out from the muzzle of the gun, and two mortars were attached. With one shot, more than a dozen people were torn apart.

Seeing this, the leader drew his horse forward and roared:

"Rush, get close to them to survive!".

His heart was bleeding. Before he came, Victor had reminded him that Xu Kuang had a powerful alchemical weapon in his hand, but he didn't take it seriously. He didn't expect that this alchemical weapon was so powerful.

Xu Kuang put on his sunglasses slowly.

He spurred his horse forward, his gaze as bright as a torch.

"Cavalry platoon, charge with me, don't let them get close to the infantry platoon!".

As soon as these words were spoken, the infantry platoon also moved to both sides to prevent its own firepower from damaging the cavalry platoon and Xu Kuang.

Hathaway was stunned, but she calmed down after a moment.

She took out her magic wand and began chanting a spell.

Xu Kuang was about to draw his horse and charge forward, but found a cold current flying over his head and heading straight for the enemy's rear.

A large area in the distance was frozen, and horses ran across it and fell apart.

Xu Kuang took a deep breath, activated his skills, and held two guns, one for each.

In just a few hundred meters, Xu Kuang fired all ten magazines of bullets, and a group of dead people appeared on the opposite side.

Xu Kuang abandoned his gun and drew his knife, and fought with the leader. Chen Xiaobao and others behind him were stunned.

Where have they seen such a lord, both civil and military?

"Don't be stunned. The cavalry will surround them on both sides. The infantry platoon will concentrate its firepower and destroy their cavalry. Quick!"

Xu Kuang led the man to fly away.

This man was even more happy when he saw Xu Kuang leading him away. The information he got was that Xu Kuang was a weakling, so he was not afraid at all.
