Battle resource points were a good thing, but it made one’s heart pained to use it.

Even as the only 1st class marquis in the China region, Ouyang Shuo only obtained 500 points. He could only exchange for a few items from this mysterious booklet.

He needed to give the matter deep thought.

Apart from the map, there were two other items that Ouyang Shuo wanted to exchange for.

Rapid Troop Movement Scroll: After use, 50% increase in movement speed for four hours without any negative effects. Costs 200 battle contribution points.

Undoubtedly, this was a last minute sprint weapon. With the movement speed of the Divine Martial Guards and the buff from this scroll, they could travel two hundred miles in four hours.

More crucially, after using this scroll, there would not be any side effects. If not, just one use of the scroll would cause many war horses to die, which was completely not worth it.

Ouyang Shuo bought this item without any hesitation.

The other item was not an object but a living person.

It was something Ouyang Shuo lacked the most right now - a Xiongnu Guide. This guide was a person familiar with the desert and the grasslands.

The guides sold by the grain officer also had different grades.

The highest grade Xiongnu Guide was not just familiar with the route. They could easily find the water sources, and they were great cavalry warriors with a strong sense of smell.

In the words of the old Emperor Wu of Han, they were the highest grade of hunting dogs.

Amongst Huo Qubing's army, there were presences that could freely roam the Xiongnu lands.

A guide was good, but the price was not cheap. A single guide cost 250 resource points.

At the current stage, only Ouyang Shuo could afford it.

The problem was that if he bought the guide, he would not have the resource points to purchase the map.

He could not get both.

Since he could obtain a living map, there was no need for a dead one.

In the end, Ouyang Shuo gritted his teeth and bought the highest grade guide.

In just a short time, he had used up all the battle resource points on hand. Ouyang Shuo took a look, but there was nothing meaningful he could exchange for anymore. As such, he just kept the remaining 50 points.

Didn't Gaia say that there were replenishment stops on the way?

Who knows, he might have a use for these points!

Ouyang Shuo generous spending made the grain officer on cloud nine. His fat tummy shook up and down, as he laughed.

Ouyang Shuo even speculated that Gaia had given the grain officer some special orders.

However, Ouyang Shuo had no intentions of investigating this matter further. He wanted to test the wares now.

He stored away the Rapid Troop Movement Scroll, while the guide revealed its true appearance.

At first glance, he was a typical Xiongnu person, and his five features were really distinct from the Han people. He wore an exquisite Han Army uniform.

"Greetings Lord, my name is Huyan Qiu."

Ouyang Shuo nodded. Then he brought Huyan Qiu and left.

After completing such a huge transaction, the grain officer showed some rare generosity. He promised Ouyang Shuo that he would sincerely equip and gear up his forces.

When Ouyang Shuo heard this promise, he nodded his head in thanks.

……

4 PM, Bai Hua returned to the barracks.

Regarding clues about the quest, Bai Hua had returned empty handed. However, she had obtained a few branch quests. With that, she decided to stay in the city.

Ouyang Shuo raised the matter of battle resource points with Bai Hua.

Bai Hua was a 2nd class marquis, so she had 200 battle resource points.

Amongst the Lords, she could already be considered a really rich person.

When Bai Hua heard his news, her eyes lit up, as she turned and left.

As for the quest maniac Xunlong Dianxue, he had actually found a clue.

Apart from some broken information, he had fortunately managed to recruit a limping guide. Although this guide could not compare to Huyan Qiu, he was free. It would be around the same level as the basic guide that was sold, allowing him to save 100 battle contribution points.

One had to mention that in terms of completing quests, Xunlong Dianxue was truly a level higher than others.

As for the use of battle resource points, Xunlong Dianxue had naturally found out, and he did not need Ouyang Shuo to tell him about it.

Ouyang Shuo did not ask what the two of them had exchanged for. After all, only one person could recruit Huo Qubing.

Although they were allies, strictly speaking, they were currently competitors.

At most, they would help each other out at the early stages.

As for the later stages, it would be good if they did not backstab each other.

……

Amongst all the rushing and chaos, night finally fell.

Daijun was located at the border of the desert, so its weather was also extremely dry.

Looking out, one could roughly see a circular sun slowly sinking. The glow of the setting sun dyed the desert a golden yellow, creating a truly beautiful sight.

Who could imagine what kind of malicious things hid in this beautiful desert.

Under the instructions of Huyan Qiu, the three thousand Divine Martial Guards once again geared up.

The grain officer kept his promise, and he actually gave them fifty war horses.

One must know that during the Han Dynasty, a good war horse was worth tens of thousands of gold.

When players entered the battle map, they could not bring any extra war horses. Each cavalry could only bring one. Hence, although each Divine Martial Guard had three horses, they could not bring them in.

Although fifty war horse were not that much, they might still come in handy at certain times.

Apart from war horses, there was also some secret weapons the Han Army had prepared to combat the weather.

There were so many items that Ouyang Shuo did not understand it.

On the contrary, when Huyan Qiu saw these items, he could not help but nod his head.

Evidently, the grain officer had actually taken out many of his treasures.

The sight of this treatment caused the eyes of the other Lords to turn red with jealousy.

……

As the sun set in the west, the night sky officially descended.

The barracks that had been boisterous for the entire day finally quietened down.

Tomorrow morning, the troops would all set off.

The next step was naturally for them to have a good rest and replenish their energy. To the player army, this was going to be their best night's rest.

The entire camp was exceedingly quiet.

In the wee hours of the morning.

Just as Ouyang Shuo was about to fall asleep, he heard a Wuwu!

"Not good!"

Ouyang Shuo instantly woke up, as he recognized that the sound came from Little White.

Back when Little White appeared in the barracks, it had attracted many people's attention.

No one had expected the Lianzhou Lord to bring in a spirit beast white wolf into the battle map. Thinking about the desert environment, some of the Lords could not contain their envy.

Ouyang Shuo quickly got up and quickly headed out of the tent.

"Lord!"

The personal guards bowed.

Ouyang Shuo waved them off and followed the noise, walking toward a corner in the barracks.

The guard members glanced at one another and felt that something was weird with their Lord, so they quickly followed. As they walked, they tightly grasped the Tang Blades at their sides.

The atmosphere in the barracks instantly became nerve racking.

Wuwu!

The sounds from Little White became even more rushed, and there was even a hint of pain.

When Ouyang Shuo heard these sounds, his face turned cold, as he broke out into a run from his brisk walking pace. The two guards behind him knew that something was wrong. One of them quietly left.

A short while later, after turning past a tent, Ouyang Shuo finally saw Little White.

The sight before his eyes made him furious.

He saw ten soldiers around Little White that were stabbing it with spears.

If Little White had not cultivated in the Spirit Beast Hall, it would have already died. Even so, blood covered its body.

Ouyang Shuo even noticed two soldiers prone on the ground behind the encirclement, their status unknown.

If things were as expected, Little White had managed to harm them.

"Who are you?"

The bunch of soldiers were alert.

"Preposterous!"

Ouyang Shuo shouted, as his Chixiao Sword exited its sheath and gleaned with a cold light.

The current sword was far different from before. The red dragon spirit was infused into it, creating a sword spirit.

Although the sword did not advance to the realm of saint weapons, its power had become much stronger than a normal god weapon.

If he experienced another lucky break, it would only be a matter of time before the Chixiao Sword became a saint weapon.

When the Chixiao Sword exited its sheath, the other swords by their waists could not help but tremble. The current Chixiao Sword had the power of the king of swords.

Other prized swords were a level lower in front of it.

"Lianzhou Lord!"

Someone recognized Ouyang Shuo and panic appeared in his eyes.

This time, the soldiers did not hesitate; they wanted to escape.

"You want to leave? Too late!"

Ouyang Shuo raised his sword and charged toward them.

The killing sword once again appeared.

The formless killing intent covered the entire area. The soldiers that had tried to escape could feel a force preventing them from running.

This was an aura.

The aura of the killing sword.

Such might was extremely alluring and terrifying.

Ouyang Shuo flowed around like water. As his sword gleaned, enemies fell. The guard behind Ouyang Shuo and Little White also joined the battle.

In less than ten minutes, the fifteen soldiers all collapsed to the ground.

Ouyang Shuo did not kill them, as he wanted to investigate their background.

The intentions of the enemy were truly vicious.

They must have noticed that Little White was special. Afraid that Ouyang Shuo would take the lead, they wanted to get rid of Little White to remove a potential cancer.

However, they had not expected the unassuming Little White to be so strong. Under the encirclement of so many elite soldiers, it still had not fallen to too much of a disadvantage.

Furthermore, they did not expect Ouyang Shuo to be so alert. Even when he was supposed to be asleep, he had come to reinforce the spirit beast so quickly.

If not, their scheme would have definitely succeeded.

Ouyang Shuo wanted to see who had employed such despicable methods.
