Beauty Steals the Country [End Times]

Chapter 16

After Lei Ming left, Mu Xishan was immediately sent to Dr. Mu's house for treatment of his injuries.

The old man frowned when he saw Mu Xishan's exposed arm, and pressed his fingers on the scorched outer side, which was hard, because the skin and flesh were all necrotic and had to be cut off.After anesthetizing Mu Xishan, the old man cut off a quarter of the bad flesh on the outside of the arm, sewed it up again, and tied a bandage.

After Mu Xishan was sent back to the city lord's mansion, Zhu'er looked at Mu Xishan's face covered with acne and scars, and his deformed arms with concern, and sighed, "City lord...you can't torment yourself like this anymore."

When Mu Xishan was lying on the bed, the anesthesia began to wear off, and the pain on the outside of his arm made it difficult for him to fall asleep, so he had to sit up and light a candle.

Let the thoughts ferment at night, the full moon outside the window is faint, hanging high alone. There will be two moons in the sky 1000 years later, but now there is only one, so there must be astrological movements in history that he does not know.And the abilities of this era, and the magic of a thousand years later, must also have gears to connect.

Language abilities are not enough to protect himself, and he is not lucky to have the energy to stimulate the foreseeing life core every time.

He had to regain his magic power.

The level of magic is similar to abilities, there are three levels of high, medium and low.The largest bases are Dharma Disciples and Dharma Masters, intermediate grades are Mage, and advanced grades are Dharma Saints and Pope Emperors. Each grade is divided into 1 to 5 stars from low to high.Just like now, in that era, magic was on the decline, the emperor disappeared, and the saint of the law was conferred as a legend, and only magicians were popular.Mu Xishan was a 3-star wood mage in his previous life.

The principle of magic is: mobilize the energy elements in the world, and "element affinity" becomes the criterion for judging potential.But the limitation is also here. Senior mages are constrained by the environment, and they will lose accidentally.

This era is just the opposite, defending against the enemy from the energy contained in the five elements in the body.

The crystal nuclei of zombies, the beast nuclei of alien beasts, and the life nuclei of supernatural beings are all the roots of their own supernatural powers, which are used to store energy.Then, using the zombie crystal nucleus to promote the supernatural person is equivalent to using other people's "core" to supplement his own "core". For a moment, Mu Xishan thought of the dark mage-a scum who did many evils and used other people's lives to prolong his own life.

The "Fate Nucleus" stems from the surge of a certain characteristic in the five elements, and the internal energy is limited.

When the first supernatural person accidentally discovered a shortcut to increase the "life core" by using zombie core energy, everyone followed suit, and this cultivation method became the mainstream of society. Natural disasters and man-made disasters corrupted human nature, so the entire era was misled——

Nobody thinks about:

How can a method of supplementing one's own "core" by devouring other "cores" without self-development be the right way?

The decline of supernatural beings has also become an inevitable road.

These two systems are like a kind of reincarnation, from glory to decline, from the internal system to the external system, from one extreme to the other.The two eras belong to the same one. Logically speaking, the magic he used in later generations can be used here, but now——Mu Xishan silently recited a spell, rubbed his fingers, and there was no fluctuation in his hands.

This means that there must be a new system connecting the two systems.

After Mu Xishan realized that he had discovered an astonishing secret, a magical fluctuation came from the holy book under the cloak.The page was refreshed in gold, which proved that he was right.But if you want to find out, you must need yellow qi. When you went out just now, you noticed that the yellow qi around Jiang Feng was thinner than last time, and it was not enough to open a new page.

Mu Xishan put away the holy book and thought of another thing: If there is a connection system, it is impossible for him to use magic like in the past, and he must have a new way to protect himself.

for example……

Mu Xishan's gaze shifted to the stack of rune manuscripts on the bedside table.

Runes are most commonly used for drawing scrolls, writing runes, and inscribed on alchemy vessels.The last one is a magic item, the second one is used to make formations and consumes mana, and the first one can be used by ordinary people.There are also many types of scrolls: scrolls of life, scrolls of movement, scrolls of attack, scrolls of defense, etc.

To make a scroll, you need to use holy wood to make base paper, then use magic core to make base liquid, and combine rune and magic symbols to draw graphics.

Because it can be mass-produced, the scroll has become a mainstream item of high quality and low price, which is necessary for life in later generations.

If crafting a scroll, you need to look for two things:

Holy wood and magic core.The magic core is the animal core of magical creatures, which is easy to find.However, the sacred wood was planted in large quantities in later generations, and it is not rampant in this era.It has nine wood species of gold, wood, water, fire, wind, thunder, earth, light and darkness.And Mu Xishan didn't know, what was the name of the earliest holy tree?

Mu Xishan took out a pen and paper to draw the appearance of the holy wood, and wrote down its habits.At this time, it was midnight, and Mu Xishan felt a little sleepy, thinking that he would go hunting in the quarantine area tomorrow, so he blew out the candles and fell asleep.

The next day, Mu Xishan woke up to the noise of wind and sand blowing on the window, the sky outside the window was slightly bright, and the sky was full of yellow sand.

The pimples on my face have not disappeared, and a layer of particles has been released from the skin again, and my injured arm seems to no longer hurt so much.Mu Xishan asked Zhu'er to come in and prepare to wash up. After dressing up, the sky was completely bright. Jiang Feng waited outside the door and said, "City Lord, the hunting team has gathered at the city gate."

"Understood." Mu Xishan put on a cloak and a sand mask, and followed Jiang Feng out.

Faced with a strong wind mixed with sand, the hood was blown over, and the cheeks were scraped, the broken hair on the forehead flew wildly, and the skin that was rubbed was hot and painful.After getting into the car, Mu Xishan was finally able to catch his breath.

The car was driving all the way, the pedestrians on the road were lonely, and every house was closed.

When they arrived at the city gate, there were already a number of military cards that had been waiting for a long time, and a team of vehicles traveled mightily.This is the first time that Mu Xishan has left base S, and there are deserts on both sides of the road, stretching as far as the eye can see.

After driving for about four hours, the sun rose to the top of the car, and what was seen in front of it was no longer a long yellow sand, but a little green, and the convoy also drove into the isolation area.

A warning sign is hung on the side of the road: "There are evil beasts inside"

The parking lot outside the area was full of cars, and the license plates included Ypsilon, Beta, E, and B bases, etc. Mu Xishan remembered that both the Beta base and the E base had been compromised, so the people who came were probably from the border town.

The convoy from base S parked on the side of the road, and Mu Xishan got off the car. The first thing he saw was the towering high-voltage power grid, which was about tens of meters high, and was used to intercept small birds.Behind the net is a pleasant oasis, with yellow grass, dense forests, and large lakes, among which small animals walk.

Hundreds of hunting soldiers got out of the car one after another. There were a few supernatural beings who joined yesterday in the team, but Mu Xishan's attention was on the strange clothes of the hunting soldiers.

Mu Xishan looked at Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng was stunned for a moment, then replaced Lu Bao who was not here, and explained: "The chemical paint on the exposed skin is to prevent sunburn, and the tight clothes are convenient for fighting, and also prevent it from being infected by mutated plants." Poisoned by cutting the skin."

Feng An, who led the team, found the door and inserted a crystal coin card with the "S" logo in the card slot. The power grid immediately smoothed to both sides, leaving a distance for one person to pass. Feng An waved the soldiers to line up to enter.

Every time a person passes by, the scanning system will flash a green light and beep, and Mu Xishan asked, "Is the money deducted according to the number of people?"

"Well, the deducted money will go to the Panlong Base and be used to maintain the power grid." Jiang Feng explained.

A few minutes later, it was Mu Xishan's turn. He and Jiang Feng walked in one after the other, but just after stepping up to scan the door, the green light instantly turned red, and a piercing alarm sounded. The power grid quickly closed, and Jiang Feng quickly hugged Mu Xishan Backing away, the long swing of the cloak was too late to pull out. Jiang Feng decisively used his supernatural power to blow it off. The next second, the closed power grid automatically operated, and the corners of the abandoned cloak were instantly electrocuted.

Mu Xishan didn't care about wondering about the changes in front of him, and hurriedly touched the inner pocket of the cloak, where the burned place touched the edge of the holy book.

After feeling that the holy book was safe and sound, Mu Xishan felt relieved, and then asked about the accident, "What's going on?"

Feng An, who was also shocked by this incident, asked across the power grid: "City Master, have you never had a biometric authentication when you grow up?"

"Biometric authentication?" What the hell is this?

Jiang Feng explained again: "Affected by the catastrophe, many important facilities are equipped with power grids to prevent unknown creatures from attacking. Like quarantine areas, only dead hunting animals can be brought out, and taxes are paid according to the number after scanning. To bring live animals, you must apply in advance and hunt with the company of a special auditor, otherwise it will be regarded as a strange animal that has crossed the net and given an electric shock. Therefore, every new population must go to any of the four major bases for relevant certification to avoid accidental injury."

Mu Xishan didn't remember whether the original body had been certified, but based on the mutated green color in his blood, he would probably be attacked as an unknown creature.

Jiang Feng thought about it, let the hunting team go ahead and hurry up to find the clay, and then said to Mu Xishan, "There is a communication station for first aid nearby, I will call my brother and let them use the camera for manual authentication. You go to the car first." wait a while."

"Okay." Mu Xishan was also about to check the holy book carefully, and he remembered that it was burnt.

After Jiang Feng left, Mu Xishan got into the car and immediately lifted his cloak.

The edge of the holy book was indeed burnt, but the pages were made of unknown material. Although the golden yellow turned to burnt yellow, the pages were unscathed. Mu Xishan opened it casually, and was surprised to find that the characters in the burnt place were burnt, but There are shallow lines, and since only tiny traces are exposed, it is impossible to tell what it is.

At the same time, at the Panlong base, the secretary had just put down Jiang Feng's phone, and bumped into Jiang Rong when he was going out. When he learned that he was going to do manual authentication for the legendary city owner of S base, Jiang Rong was instantly excited.

"Wait! There's no need to find the certification department, I'll go and authenticate him myself."

The secretary said embarrassingly, "But you are from the Ministry of Commerce, no matter the certification."

"I don't care if the city lord can always make the decision, right?" Jiang Rong waved his hand impatiently, "Stand here and stay still, I'll go find my brother!"

After Mu Xishan waited for a while, Jiang Feng returned to the car and told him to go under the camera by the door. As soon as Mu Xishan stood up, a frivolous male voice came from the horn next to the camera, "Are you the owner of the S base? Do you want to be certified?" What kind of mask are you wearing, take it off quickly, and that cloak, don’t you have something in it?”

Jiang Feng frowned when he heard the voice, but Mu Xishan noticed the yellow air coming out of the horn as he spoke.

"Your brother?" Mu Xishan asked Jiang Feng, and Jiang Rong, who was opposite the camera, was also shocked.

Because the physical examination is a correct procedure, although Jiang Rong's teasing was too obvious, Jiang Feng and Jiang Qi did not stop it.After Mu Xishan took off his mask and hood, he immediately heard the sound of a stool falling over the loudspeaker, and Jiang Rong's gasping. It seemed that he was quite frightened.

Jiang Rongjun looked at his elder brother in dismay, and said with lingering fear: "It's really a talent to be so ugly."

Jiang Qi's answer was to kick Jiang Rong who was lying on the ground, and said to the secretary, "Take him out."

Mu Xishan heard the trumpet sound again, and it came from a low and steady young man, "Sorry, my brother is not sensible, please don't be offended by the city master Mu." Along with the voice, there are strands of gold drifting away, and the holy book under the cloak is produced The most violent magic fluctuation after coming to this era.

Presumably this is... the founding monarch!

Mu Xishan suppressed the shock in his heart, and asked with a flat face, "Are you...?"

"It's the first time I've met you. I'm Jiang Qi, the city lord of the Panlong Base. I've always wanted to thank you for taking care of my third brother Jiang Feng."

"We met for the first time, at the lower curtain Xishan." Mu Xishan nodded, thinking of the holy book that could not be exposed under the cloak, and said, "...Because I was injured last night, I might have frightened you by showing my ugliness. Can you not take off the cloak?"

Jiang Qi knew about Mu Xishan's injury. Due to the unthinkable behavior of the new city lord, base S has recently become the focus of attention in the north, and every time the recorded news is circulated.His eyes rested on Mu Xishan's face again, the uneven skin was covered with pockmarks, and the strong visual impact made it difficult to notice that he still had a pair of beautiful eyes, dark green with emerald green, like the gems of Chen Cang, without a trace. people appreciate.

Thinking of Mu Xishan who was troubled by his appearance since he was a child and suffered a lot of discrimination. Even his husband left the seriously ill Mu Xishan and ran away with his lover... Although some accidents gave Mu Xishan a chance to show his ambition, Jiang Qi felt a kind of kindness in his heart. A sense of pity born of cherishing talents.

"Okay, you go in." Jiang Qi said something that surprised Jiang Feng in a slightly soft voice, "Be careful."
