Mythological origin

"Almost two hundred people came..." After dawn, Bai Mo counted the heads of people busy outside the mine. The number of people was a little beyond his expectation.

Something small happened last night.

Hundreds of people imprisoned by the Lone Wolf, with the help of Lone Wolf Loans, slaughtered all the Lone Wolf members who were guarding them.

Even the heavily armed slave-catching team who rushed to come back for help after hearing the news were beaten and fled by the resisting crowd.

Of course, this level of bloodshed is not uncommon in the Emerald City. It is similar to a big gang fight, but the number of people involved is slightly larger.

After defeating the lone wolf, the freed people began to choose their future.

The more than seventy people who have been equipped with psionic treasures have no choice. In order to break out of the siege, everyone has been saddled with debts, so when they receive a system task that requires them to go to the mining place, No one was going to say no.

Other ordinary people without qualifications took different directions at this time.

After someone escaped from the devil's cave, they tried to contact their family and friends as quickly as possible.

Some people left silently and disappeared into the dark streets.

There are still some who follow the ability users who led everyone to fight, and then head towards their destination in a daze.

In order to keep it secret, Bai Mo cast a circle of temporary cognitive distortion on the spiritual treasure.

Within about a month, these ordinary people who escaped would think that it was someone else who was lucky enough to grab the weapons and lead everyone to escape from prison, rather than some supernatural being, to prevent the news from leaking.

……

"Taoist Priest, do I need to collect more tools and supplies?" Ding Man on the side crossed his hands in front of his belly that had just lost weight a few days ago. He lowered his eyebrows and looked like a butler.

"Go."

After receiving a call from Bai Mo, Ding Man and others bought and moved, and prepared simple tools, food and lodging for hundreds of people overnight.

After experiencing a series of changes in his body, Ding Man now respected Bai Mo like a god. Not to mention just asking him to provide money and help, even if Bai Mo asked him to kill people with a knife, he would not hesitate.

To make a 200-pound fat man lose 140 pounds overnight, and also eliminate a bunch of old problems such as hyperlipidemia and fatty liver. This is enough to be described as a miracle.

"It's a pity that the gap at the beginning is still too big." Bai Mo couldn't help but sigh as he looked at Ding Man's strong figure going away.

If he had started with Black Sword, he would have been able to use his status advantage to hypnotize and even directly mentally control the dozen or so purple-robed nobles who held the core power of Rome, and then give an order to mobilize the whole country to dig out souls. Stone, sending a steady stream of spiritual stones to himself.

Where is it as troublesome as it is now, I have to personally capture a group of paru and dig it out slowly.

This is also the optimal solution to "the only way to do it".

There is no need to stupidly harden the power of the regime or compare the strength of modern weapons and firepower with extraordinary strength. It is enough to find ways to directly contact and control a few key figures.

In the final analysis, the state machine is also a pyramid. No matter how strong and thick the tower body is, there are only a few mortals standing at the top.

As long as a few people at the top of the tower can be used, they can give orders to the people below through the layers of power and affiliation.

It is much easier to parasitize and seize the top level of a powerful force than to defeat this force and then rebuild your own force.

No matter how powerful the thermal weapon is, there must first be an order to attack.

If the top management doesn't say anything, no matter how many missiles there are, what else can the following do?

With Bai Mo's recovery to today's strength, it would not be a big problem to hypnotize twenty or thirty people throughout the day.

As long as the other party does not leave him more than two hundred kilometers away. This number is completely enough to control Rome's top decision-makers.

But the prerequisite for everything is to be able to meet and have contact, and to know the corresponding spiritual skills.

In the previous life, Bai Mo had the chance to get in touch with high-level officials in Rome, but at that time, the entire cultivation system had just begun. It was already pretty good if everyone could figure out their own abilities, let alone learn a bunch of additional mental control techniques. .

It's easy for Bai Mo to kill them, but he really doesn't have that ability to control them.

When related spiritual techniques developed later, the top federal officials also had life field protection. It was still easy to kill them, but it was really impossible to control them.

The existence of the life field makes it possible for extraordinary people to be beaten to death, but it is difficult for them to become puppets who have lost themselves.

Unless the person is caught and subjected to a lot of in-depth processing, but they can reach this point, what difference does it make if they lose themselves or not...

……

Before the spiritual tide really erupted, there were only some scattered ordinary spiritual stones in the extinct volcanoes everywhere, and the spiritual essence needed by high-level monks had not yet been born.

But before the third level, ordinary spirit stones are still very useful. Bai Mo's current strength has only returned to the early stage of the second level. According to Terra's standards, he feels that he should be between level 22 and 23. .

If he had enough spirit stones, he could quickly reach level twenty-nine.

For newcomers to practice this kind of thing, they may need to take steps step by step for fear of making mistakes, but for old monsters like them, just rush forward with all their strength and that's it.

……

"This spirit stone is a good thing." Su Yan, holding the tool in his hand and looking at the spirit stone sample intently, muttered in a low voice, his eyes full of instinctive desire.

After they followed the system's instructions and showed off their special abilities, they arrived at this inhospitable place. Sadako and Li Hualan, two guys who claimed to be psychic envoys, warmly received everyone.

Then different divisions of labor were carried out based on the identity and ability of the person coming.

Ordinary people who do not have natural cultivation qualifications and cannot temporarily install spiritual treasures are equivalent to ordinary hired workers. They are mainly responsible for camp chores, and Ding Man is responsible for paying daily wages.

After a month, they are free to choose to stay or leave.

Su Yan and the others, who had already installed the psionic treasure, were all going to mine.

For the unearthed spiritual stones, those in debt have two options.

One is to hand it over directly to the two special envoys, each piece can be worth one power point.

Of course, you can also practice it yourself, and it depends on your personal destiny to see how much you can get out of it.

Upon hearing this arrangement, Su Yan looked at the psychic treasure that breathed one percent a day and sighed softly.

Yes, the daily interest rate is 1%. In yesterday's battle, Su Yan borrowed a total of 250 spiritual energy points to release spiritual arts, which means that he had to dig out at least two and a half spiritual energy points every day just for the interest rate. Stone to offset the debt...

But compared to being exposed to the mysteries of the extraordinary world, loan sharking with a daily interest rate of 1% seems to have become less hideous.

At least it was much better than the loan shark borrowed from his gambling daddy.

PS: I wish everyone a Happy New Year a little early, and a wave of New Year red envelopes will be sent out in the book club at 11 o'clock tonight. (End of chapter)
