Chapter 828: Mission Rewards
September 25th, 2017
Congratulations! You have completed the Dong Zhuo's Entry into Luoyang mission with an 'Elite' completion rating. You have received a Mythic Chest and a Xiliang Iron Cavalry Recruitment Order.
Xiliang Iron Cavalry Recruitment Order (3000 troops)
Item Type: Consumable/Military Item
Item Description: Upon use, you can permanently recruit 3000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry to fight for you.
About ten miles outside Luoyang City, Lu Hai Kong examined the system prompt and the newly acquired Xiliang Iron Cavalry Recruitment Order. To be honest, he wasn't very satisfied with the rewards for this mission.
He had originally thought that the rewards for this type of plot-driving mission would be more substantial. He hadn't expected it to be so meager, and what surprised Lu Hai Kong even more was that one of the rewards was the Xiliang Iron Cavalry Recruitment Order. To be frank, he wasn't very interested in this kind of item.
After all, Lu Hai Kong's forces were already abundant in cavalry, including the 'Bloodbath' and 'Black Wind' cavalries, as well as the yet-to-be-unleashed 'Golden' cavalry, and tens of thousands of 'Elite' bandits. Lu Hai Kong's demand for cavalry was already well-met, and he wasn't very impressed with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
It was true that the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was powerful, but they also required a capable leader. The Xiliang Iron Cavalry under Dong Zhuo's command would undoubtedly be stronger than those under his own leadership. Since he couldn't utilize their full strength, Lu Hai Kong wasn't very keen on this Recruitment Order.
However, this item did have some value. If Lu Hai Kong wished, he could sell it for a good price. He believed that many Outsider Lords would be interested in such an item, and it could fetch a high price.
Lu Hai Kong pondered for a moment, considering whether to sell the Xiliang Iron Cavalry Recruitment Order. After some thought, he decided to keep it for now and return to Bingzhou with his troops.
After completing the Dong Zhuo's Entry into Luoyang mission, Lu Hai Kong wasn't very interested in the subsequent developments within Luoyang City. After all, the outcome was almost predetermined, and keeping a close eye on it wouldn't make much difference.
However, Lu Hai Kong had specifically met with Dong Zhuo to discuss some conditions. He asked for some favors, such as restoring his marriage agreement with Yue Er after Dong Zhuo took control of the government, and requesting promotions. Of course, Lu Hai Kong offered his help in building Dong Zhuo's influence, such as his 'tragic defeat' and He Jin's life as a show of goodwill.
In reality, the favors Lu Hai Kong asked for were just superficial. His true focus during the meeting with Dong Zhuo was to understand some things.
After Dong Zhuo's entry into Luoyang, the plotline of the Feudal Lords' Revolt Against Dong Zhuo was about to begin. So, Lu Hai Kong wanted to see how long it would be before the Feudal Lords' Revolt.
This was something Lu Hai Kong could deduce from his understanding of the system. Once the Feudal Lords' Revolt Against Dong Zhuo plotline started, Dong Zhuo would undoubtedly become the strongest boss.
However, despite sending many people to closely monitor Dong Zhuo and his forces, Lu Hai Kong hadn't discovered any significant growth in their strength. There didn't seem to be any special encounters, and this situation left Lu Hai Kong puzzled and curious. His intuition told him that Dong Zhuo must have experienced some kind of transformation, but he was unaware of it, so he wanted to meet Dong Zhuo in person.
As it turned out, Lu Hai Kong's intuition was correct. The moment he saw Dong Zhuo, he understood Dong Zhuo's unique encounter and his current situation.
With the information Lu Hai Kong currently possessed, he was well aware that Dong Zhuo's strength wasn't extraordinary at the moment, but with that thing in his possession, there would undoubtedly be a rapid increase in his power, and it was even possible that not just his personal strength would be enhanced.
With Han Lingdi's sudden demise, the plan to surround and capture Lu Hai Kong hasn't been executed yet. The three counties' troops, originally tasked with the mission, are now in a state of confusion, not knowing their next move.
The situation becomes more intriguing as Lu Hai Kong encounters resistance on his way out. The He family, having lost He Jin to an assassination, is now led by He Miao, who is determined to stop Lu Hai Kong.
As Lu Hai Kong's army marches towards Bingzhou, the three counties' troops, unaware of the recent events, are left wondering about their next steps. Meanwhile, the He family, eager to assert their dominance, prepares to confront Lu Hai Kong.
