Astral Apostle
Chapter 25
The atmosphere of this supper was in a frenzy, and I ate until it was close to dawn, and the few people broke up and went home.
Although Zhou Jing wants to ask Li Xiaoyin for some internal information on the superpower user circle, but at present, people are also cute and "informative". Maybe they don’t know as much as him, so Zhou Jing for the time being I suppressed this idea.
Back in the rental house, Zhou Jing took a short break, woke up and sobered up, and then started learning according to the established training plan.
Intermittently until the afternoon, the shuttle cooling is finally over.
"Now is the time to see the results of the serious placement..."
Zhou Jing rubbed some sore eyes and turned off the computer that was checking the information.
Lie back on the bed and close your eyes.
"Enter!"
……
Om——
The consciousness returned to the shuttle preparation space, still starry.
Zhou Jing looks at the huge fluorescent panel, and the result of this placement has been displayed:
["Jason Wood" placement end]
[Can view this Earnings report for this placement...automatically]
[Idle time: 18 days (Star Realm time)]
[This time earnings: astral points +210]
[Cumulative income: astral points 210/2000]
[Ability Growth: [Hunter's Breath·Forging] Lv1→Lv2, [Weapon Master·Hunting Knife] Lv1→Lv2, [Weapon Master·Heavy Knife 】Lv0→Lv1]
[Trigger Achievement: None]
[This placement rating: normal]
[Whether to check placement history log]
"Okay, still alive!"
Zhou Jing's hanging heart relaxed.
Not only or, but the skills have also been upgraded... It seems that the plan is feasible, and the development in Frostwood Village is indeed stable.
Sure enough, the benefits of placement are not bad. As long as you lay a solid foundation during the coming period and have a stable environment, placement can play a huge role.
Open the log and all the experiences during the placement of "Jason Wood" are completely recorded in the form of images called Number One Person.
In addition, there will be additional sticky notes when encountering events, improving skills, and interacting with people.
The experience during the placement period can be seen slowly, or it can be directly absorbed and turned into memory. The latter is more efficient.
Zhou Jing checked, there were no special events during the placement period of "Jason Wood". According to the set placement plan of "concentrated cultivation", the overwhelming majority time was devoted to exercise.
Occasionally communicating with Baron, Griff, etc., they all seem taciturn, basically do not take the initiative to bring up topics, behave very low-key, and focus on training... It may also be the perseverance and martial nature of "Jason Wood". effect.
"Well, it looks normal, and there is nothing strange about the placement performance. At most, it is a lot more silent than when I personally control it... It seems that the synchronization rate is high, and Astral Apostle can do it. The more complicated the response is, and it’s okay now, it’s not a lot of work."
Zhou Jing pondered to herself.
Astral Apostle is more stable if it has a good personality.
In general, this time confirmed the effect of the placement mode, which has reached his expectations.
"Next, is to maintain the status quo and let this Astral Apostle develop."
Zhou Jing is certain.
……
……
The ebbing of time is not subject to human will.
The sun rises and the moon sets, and the seasons alternate.
Strange beast world three months passed in a blink of an eye.
Frostwood Village training ground, a strong silhouette holding a dark heavy knife, practicing the basic Blade Technique movements with flowing water.
Sweep, slash, stab, smash, pick...Each style is full of power, and it winds up the low and whistling wind.
Huh!
The silhouette made a final cut, and the blade suddenly stopped a few centimeters above the ground in the air, blowing away the dust vigorously, and controlling the force very skillfully and accurately.
"Hoo..."
Zhou Jing stood up with the knife, spat out one mouthful of impure air, the whole body's clear muscles vibrated with high frequency.
"The breathing technique has finally risen to Level 1."
Opening the panel and taking a look, [Hunter's Breath·Forging] finally reached Lv4.
This is the fourth time he has descended on "Jason Wood". The combined time of travel and placement, he has survived in the strange beast world for more than three months.
Most of the time I grew up in Frostwood Village, and occasionally followed the hunter team into the forest, hunting some common prey to provide meat to the village, because I did not go too deep into the forest and did not encounter Bonemen.
Frostwood Village deserted, nothing happened during the days of focusing on cultivation, calmly. In the village, he bowed his head and looked up. In the past three months, he and most of the villagers have been acquainted with each other.
The result of cultivation is mainly Hunter's Breath Technique. As the skill level increases, even with the practice acceleration function, the time it takes to reach the next level of mastery also increases.
In the first month, [Hunter's Breath·Forging] was upgraded to Lv2 by two consecutive levels, and it was able to rise to Lv4 for more than two months, and it took longer and longer.
Zhou Jing also understands why the training acceleration fee is only a minimum guarantee. In fact, the Supreme limit can be invested in astral points to further accelerate the learning speed-if this reaches a very high level, even if the minimum training acceleration is activated, It may take several years to get the skill level 1 up.
Like ordinary people, the more proficient a skill is, the harder it is to make progress.
In addition, in addition to the advancement of Hunter's Breath Technique, he also mastered the skills of hunting knives, heavy knives, war knives, etc., and after learning three similar weapons, the skills of these similar weapons merged into A skill has become [Weapon Mastery -Blade Technique].
"These two abilities have been practiced in three months, and they can be compared to the achievements of others in ten years..."
Zhou Jing muttered secretly and glanced twice. The current effect of each skill.
[[Hunter's Breath·Forging]]
[Current Level: Lv4-(Proficient)]
[Effect: Physical +3, Resistance +2 ]
——
[[Weapon Master-Blade Technique]]
[Current Level: Lv4-(Proficient)]
[Effect: Have a superb Blade Technique skill, stamina +1]
——
Most of the cultivation time is spent on these two skills, and the return is pretty good.
Zhou Jing opened the ability file of "Jason Wood", the attribute of this Astral Apostle has become:
[attribute: physical 14, resistance 11, perception 5, spirit 6 , Energy 0]
Compared with three months ago, the physical fitness has been significantly improved. It has not been strengthened by the different blood, and it is already a bit extraordinary. In fact, it is a bit beyond Zhou Jing's expectation.
"It is mainly due to Hunter's Breath Technique..."
Zhou Jing pondered, this skill produces this kind of effect on her body, I am afraid it is a bit of a coincidence.
[Hunter's Breath·Training] There is a training threshold. Even if you know that this skill is somewhat extraordinary, an ordinary person can't practice it, but if you want to reach the training threshold, normal exercise is extremely difficult. Endless loop.
Only the apostle pinched by oneself, with the initial physical strength beyond ordinary people, has directly reached the threshold of training. This problem is solved, and it is difficult for others to copy.
After three months, most of the astral points accumulated by oneself have been thrown into these two skills. Among them, [Hunter's Breath·Forging] is the most expensive. It has risen to the current Lv4 and has already thrown in 700 points.
If a single return and placement are regarded as a shuttle cycle, then the daily income brought by each cycle of "Jason Wood" is about 300 astral points, except for the first shuttle trigger A few simple achievements did not trigger again in the next few times.
Planning out the expenses of accelerating practice these days, there is still a balance of 460 points on hand.
"If you exercise to this level, you should be able to take xenoblood potion. If you continue to develop routinely like this, it will not be a good deal..."
Just as Zhou Jing was thinking about it silently , Baron, who was supervising on the side, walked over.
"Is it improved again?" Baron came to Zhou Jing in a calm tone.
"Well, it looks like this, I feel that my strength has increased again."
Zhou Jing nodded, casually took a knife in his hand, with a heavy knife in his hand As light as a wooden stick.
Watching this scene calmly, Baron has no expression on his face.
In the past three months, he has been witnessing Zhou Jing's unimaginable growth rate, slowly from shock to surprise.
People are already numb.
He has no idea what this "Jason Wood" is like.
There is no different blood enhancement. As you practice, your body strength is about to catch up with yourself? !
This is actually a strange beast in human skin!
The view of the world has been broken time and time again. Baron has given up on using limited brain cells to think about such confusing problems and attributed everything to the "Jason Wood" extraordinary natural talent.
He grasped the core contradiction and identified a truth-as long as this "Jason Wood" is a strange beast hunter, the more powerful the better, the others don't even think about it.
Seeing that Baron didn’t answer, Zhou Jing raised her eyebrows and asked: "Do you think I can use xenoblood potion now?"
Okay, of course, let alone use xenoblood potion , You can go directly to the xenoblood warrior...
Baron resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and said directly:
" Pack things up, tomorrow morning, we will set off to White Essence City, I will take you to get the xenoblood potion!"
"Okay."
Zhou Jing's eyes lit up.
After three months of training, I finally met Baron's requirements, and this time I can finally come into contact with real extraordinary power!
……
Early in the morning of second day, Zhou Jing took Ross and joined Baron at the entrance of the village, each with their bags and equipment.
Baron was still dressed as he was hunting, because he lost his two-handed battle axe in the forest and was probably picked up by the Bonemen, so he asked the blacksmith in the village to hit a new axe. The workmanship is better than before. The weapon is much rougher and cruder.
Zhou Jing is wearing a hunter's suit with a dagger in her waist and a dark heavy knife on her back.
This heavy knife was made by the blacksmith at the east end of the village using stubborn iron for making farm tools. It has no characteristics other than being relatively heavy. It is usually used for exercise, and of course it can also be used to hack people... to be accurate. Said to be a man.
Ross is carrying pots and pans on his back, looking like a cook... In the past few months, following Zhou Jing's ears and eyes, he really learned how to cook!
Although it is currently limited to cooking food, it is already a leap forward!
Zhou Jing is not generally gratified about this-she finally doesn't have to be a babysitter, and can finally enjoy the service of attendants!
There is some distance from Frostwood Village to White Essence City. There are no means of transportation in the village except for the bullock carts, and they usually walk into the city on foot.
Although it is on foot, with the endurance of two people, it runs faster all the way.
Even if you bring Ross, it will not take many days.
It's just that, besides the three of them, there is an unexpected guest at the entrance of the village at this time.
"Jason Uncle, Baron Uncle, can you take me to town with me?"
Liner held Zhou Jing's thigh, looked up and blinked his big eyes to be cute, with a face Please and pray.
"I'm going to do business, I don't have time to take you."
Zhou Jing reluctantly shakes his legs and wants to throw Lena off.
At any rate, it is Griff's son. He still doesn't have a kid, which makes this kid stick to himself more and more.
"Don’t, I’m very good, I listen to you all the way, if you want me to eat, I will eat, if I want to sleep, I will sleep!"
Linner hurriedly Said.
"Good?" Baron snorted: "Did your father agree to go out?"
"He...he agreed!" Reiner replied with a stubborn neck.
Zhou Jing suddenly looked up and looked towards behind Lena: "Hey, Griff, you are also up early, are you here to catch your son?"
"Aiya father!"
Rainer was taken aback, quickly let go, and turned to look towards behind him.
Whhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
"You lie to me!"
Liner rushed back angrily, but saw that Zhou Jing and the three had already run away.
……
From Frostwood Village to White Essence City, the road is a piece of unprocessed natural scenery, the terrain is mostly plains and hills, occasionally dotted with small woods.
Dirt roads are sometimes unavailable, and sometimes there are roadside signposts after a long distance. If you are not familiar with the direction, it is easy to go astray. Baron is an old driver and naturally there is no probability of getting lost.
There was no delay in the middle. Zhou Jing and Baron used their endurance to run, and occasionally carried Ross on their shoulders. The three arrived at their destination within a short period of time.
Walking out of a small forest, the vision in the distance suddenly became clear, and I saw a town on the hill.
Surrounded by a gray city wall, the stone and brick walls are distinct. Some houses in the city are higher than the city wall, and the roofs emerge from behind the wall in a patchwork pattern.
"This is White Essence City..." Zhou Jing looked over.
I am used to seeing Interstellar Era architecture. Of course, this town has nothing to do with magnificence. In his opinion, it is a small town at the village level, with simple ancient city wall fortifications, up to four Five meters high.
But for the strange beast world residents of this era, it is already a medium-sized city of considerable scale.
"Let's go, let's enter the city."
Baron patted Zhou Jing's shoulder.
The three came to the city gate, where many people were queuing to enter the city. There were farmers, merchants, and strange beast hunters carrying weapons.
The bullock carts full of loads were overcrowded, and the merchants spoke the northern dialect and chatted with people, making it noisy.
There are four guards in front of the city gate, wearing leather armor with studs, and wearing a simple round helmet slantingly on their heads. The short spear in their hands beats against the goods in the bullock cart and interrogates them into the city. personnel.
There are four Fortress cities in the northern part of the Terra Empire, and there are dozens of towns like White Essence City. White Essence City is one of the more remote, but it is also a town anyway, still more remote than Frostwood Village There is a lot of excitement, and farmers, passersby, travelers, mercenaries, and strange beast hunters from the surrounding villages will all stop here.
Soon, it was Zhou Jing's turn for the team.
The guard saw Baron dressed up as a strange beast hunter and came up to question him with a respectful attitude.
After Baron said that he was a hunter stationed in Frostwood Village, the guards immediately let go, and the three of them entered the town together.
As Baron said, strange beast hunters are a glorious profession. They fight with strange beasts all the year round and solve the existential threat of human beings. They are indeed very prestigious among the people. Almost no town will refuse strange beast hunters to enter.
Walking on a noisy street, Baron told Zhou Jing about the city.
"Including me, there are about 30 strange beast hunters who have been active in the vicinity of White Essence City for a long time. The strange beast threats and overwhelming majority in this neighborhood are all solved by us. Most of the time we Scattered in different areas, some are garrison hunters, and some are free-moving hunters. Generally, it is only in White Essence City that it is easy to meet with others. This time I will bring you a different blood enhancement, and I will also bring you to know other people by the way and let you know What should I do after becoming a strange beast hunter."
Zhou Jing nodded, observing the Middle Ancient era-style buildings on the street, casually asked: "If not counting the hunters, how many troops does White Essence City have? "
"There should be three-four hundred standing soldiers. They are all from Lord Rut Crowe...Huh, there should be several xenoblood warriors."
Speaking of the last sentence , Baron couldn't help showing a look of contempt.
Zhou Jing glanced at him curiously: "You seem to hate this lord?"
"That's not true. Lord Rut is actually okay. He is a blood relative of the tribe. Protecting White Essence City. The town is not only a settlement, but also responsible for clearing the surrounding strange beast threats. He never stingy with bounties to summon hunters, and many times let his troops help hunting...Although it is the responsibility of the lord, but At least it's qualified."
Explain a little bit, Baron paused, coldly snorted and said: "What I hate is the group of xenoblood warriors who accept the lord’s solicitation and protect the lord."
>"How do you say this? They have conflicts with you?" Zhou Jing came to be interested.
"It's not a contradiction with me." Baron dissatisfied: "These people have survived the strengthening of different blood, but they don't use this power to deal with strange beasts. Instead, they gather around the lord for power or wealth, and we hunt They hide behind when they are strange beasts. What is this called? We hunters have never looked down upon such cowards!"
Zhou Jing suddenly understood.
——Everyone has accepted the different blood enhancement. The strange beast hunters go to fight with the strange beast, but these people who have the same power hide behind and protect the lord without going to the battlefield.
Under the glorious professional tradition, strange beast hunters must look down on these xenoblood warriors who dare not be hunters. This should be a chain of contempt for a long time.
In the era of tribes, the pressure of survival was huge, and the warriors who succeeded in the enhancement of different blood basically all wanted to be strange beast hunters to protect the tribe.
In today’s age of empire, people with extraordinary powers have different minds... Compared with the strange beast hunters who wander on the line of life and death, it seems that they can gain wealth and power by virtue of this power. Safe and more comfortable.
Anyway, there are others who are strange beast hunters. Why should they take risks? Finally, they have to gain strength. Of course, they should think about their own interests... Maybe this is the idea?
'This should be a divergence between this world superpower users... After people gain superpower, their ideas are not as simple as before. '
Zhou Jing shook the head, I can't help but think of Baron occasionally chanting that hunters are not pure now.
He doesn't think there is anything. This is such is human nature. As the external pressure is reduced, the human heart will become more complicated.
It’s just that as this concept slowly spreads to the entire society, there may be fewer and fewer orthodox strange beast hunters who can adhere to the tradition of the glory of the strange beast hunter and take on the responsibility of fighting the strange beast...
'So in the past three months, Baron often talked about the glory of the strange beast hunter, and instilled it in me...I was worried that I was not a strange beast hunter? 'Zhou Jing thought to himself.
He understands Baron's worries, but the [Life Goal] of Astral Apostle is basically related to the strange beast hunter.
In order to collect the number of information state particles required for customs clearance as soon as possible, not only do I have to be a hunter, but I also have to make some achievements in this industry.
